We finally hit the magic 13 needed to get our PRODMAN turned into a regular class. So Mr. Bolinao started giving an overview for operations management earlier and went into discussing the global crisis we are facing right now. He talked about how it started with the bankruptcy of Lemahn, then the bailouts for AIG, Citigroup and other companies. I have to read more about where everything started and the turn of events that happened after that. Being back in school meant I have to start reading the news seriously again which I had stopped doing when I stopped attending classes. I honestly didn’t understand it at first but after sir’s explanation, it upped my curiosity. So I’m going to try and find more information and watch CNN or Bloomberg when I can.
RELSFOR was uneventful. Our professor didn’t show up. So I went ahead and picked up the books I reserved from the Pahiram Libro which is a project of the Student Council. I picked up two religion text references, one is the Compendium of the Social Doctrines of the Catholic Church and the other one is a book by Gorospe, I think its called, Forming the Filipino Social Conscience or something close to that.
ENGLTRI was good. I shared a quote that I liked and I chose an excerpt from Paulo Coehlo’s The Alchemist. The one that said something like, “Tell your heart that the fear of suffering is worse than suffering itself.” That was really significant for me because I was so scared of going back to school after my long absence from the university. For next meeting, I have to come up with a product idea that I will be using for my sales presentation. Its a speech class and we have 3-4 individual speeches plus one group presentation which would be a panel discussion. I haven’t anything good in mind, I figured if Mom and I can find some decent packaging I can just try and bake a cake or some cinnamon rolls and use that. I’d rather bring something edible since it can double as my lunch or snack. Haha.
I wasn’t able to sleep much before I went to school because our dogs were noisy, so I ended up sleeping an hour before Mom woke me up. So on the way home, I slept on the bus till we got to Tanauan. Yay for cool buses like the Batangas StarExpress. 
I love big buses. I’m so sleepy now. >.<
P.S. I called PLDT’s customer service today. turns out my DSL reactivation is still in the processing queue. They are so slow. Seriously. >.>
