To ACP or not to?

I'm supposed to blog about the irony of not seeing the reason why Jireh Ibañez got ejected even though I was watching the game. But I think this is much more important. Ibañez could wait. But this cannot.


"Mag-C-CO ka pa ba?"


If you ask me that question two months ago, I'll say "Oo naman!"
If you ask me last month, I'll say "Hindi na. Mahirap ang Third Year."
But ask me now, and I'll say "Ewan ko ba!"

I really wanted to join the ACP. I've made that decision when I was still in Second Year. Even before the whole gang wanted to, I've made my decision. Now, there are things that hinder me from continuing with that decision.

First. I think it's gonna be hard. We'll be having the 4 "terror subjects", namely Geometry, Chemistry, Accounting, and Trigonometry. Plus, if I become a cadet, I'll add the detailing during lunch, dares on recess, and training in my terror list. But hey, I made it all the way here even if I'm two years younger.

Second. As of this point, only 3 people in our gang wanted to pursue the ACP thing. Or so I thought. I don't want to go with the flow; I want to make up my own mind.

Third. Sacrifice. If I continue with my ACP decision, that means I'll be sacrificing my Third Year life. My thirteen-year-old life. I don't know if I could do it.

But I wanted to prove to everyone, to myself, that I could do it well. I could balance my time and prioritize well. So what if it'll be hard? If I'm thinking of the long run, then that means more perks, more activities, and so on. Think of the long run. And besides, HARD? You'll never know 'til you try, right?

Please help me. Your advice could make a difference in my decision-making. Thank you.
