Now Playing: “Keeping Me Alive” by The Afters
And so I went to college in a dispirited mood.
But college was my “high school”; college was, for me, what high school was for other people. The music continues and goes on to rock out.
I was ecstatic when I found out that I passed the University of the Philippines College Admission Test. It was an exciting thought to know that I‘ll be going to UP Los Baños. I celebrated a lot when I found out.
College was the birth of my social life. I met new friends, and I hung out with them a lot. I noticed that I had more girl friends than boys. It must be because of my dealings with lots of girls.
I also encountered more positively challenging subjects. I loved the idea of choosing my own subjects.

At this time, the MP3 player is going on low battery. I’d have to recharge it and upload more songs, but then the last song plays. It is by far the most important song in the playlist. I couldn’t let it pass, since it is really important.
In college, I met my creator and Father, God. I became involved with Campus Crusades for Christ. I’ve questioned my faith before, but meeting Him firsthand has changed me. I now place myself in His control, my MP3 in His hands, so that He could download the songs Himself.
I was lost without Him, and I was scared of the dark. The evil slipping into the dimension of the world gripped me through fear. I tried to make do with other beliefs, but to no avail. Hence, the burst of light that was Him was comforting to me.
As I said, my life is a never-ending playlist, and it is still ongoing. God Himself is playing it, and I just move to the music. Whether it is dance music or a sad love song, I move. As the music plays, I sing the melodies of my life and tap my feet to the tune of humanity. I’m off to the showers to sing aloud the beauty of my life.
