the continuation...my high school life

Whew ! I am back. So, so, sorry for those who waited for the continuation of my story. Got loads of reviewers to make for my son's periodical exams plus the fact that I have to be there for him to review those papers. And so, to continue...

High school life for me was not that exciting because I was the type of person who goes to school and goes right back home after a whole day of school work. I have different sets of friends though because I was friendly. I am not choosy in selecting who my friends will be but I have 3 best friends in my first year. We eat our snacks together during recess time and chat a while as time allows, but that's about it. Lunchtime at home means hot soup that is why I make sure I eat my lunch in the house since it is near the school. I really love hot soup. During our dismissal in the afternoon, I do not stay longer in school because I intend to do my assignments once I get home..imagine, we have to memorize 20 words in our vocabulary, scientific names of plants and animals, etc. My friends would tell me to stay awhile but I would insist on going home since I easily get tired. During my second year, if I still remember it right, our group, meaning, my 3 best friends and I got separated because we went to different sections. Of course, I made new friends easily. I love Biology. During the third year, I hated Algebra so much. I was having a hard time understanding the concept of this subject. It was my first time to get a grade lower than 80. But in my fourth year in high school, I made a turn around because I got really good grades in all my subjects including trigonometry plus the fact that I got 100% scholarship in one of the university in our place. I gained one friend who I missed so much because she is in the U.S. right now fighting cancer. I was planning to take up a computer course in college but the university that gave me the scholarship did not offer the course, so I decided to enroll myself at the Ateneo de Davao University. Did I take the course?
