| we just don't design things better, we link them together..

That’s the aphorism of Microlink, my group in Communications subject, last year.. it was certainly one the best groups I ever had in college, but unfortunately, the groupings divided the class into different alliances.. lucky enough, after a year of conflict and misunderstanding about each alliances, the class is whole again and everybody else is unified..

Oohh, our group has gone a long way just to finish the requirements for the said subject.. we were out on the streets late at night just to fix things up.. we even had lots of sleepovers and group meetings to be able to finish
the miniature of our design (thanks to kuya marc who provided a gifted hand to put the structures at the right place!!)


The bonding I have with the members of the group requires not only friendship but as well as passion to know these people.. some of ‘em have been my friends from the start of college days but some were not.. that’s the challenge comes along.. to be able to fit into the group or to be left out.. but as the ice breaker and as the most conversationalist (maybe because I have a big mouth – figuratively!), I was able to blend different personalities and was able to deal with lots of attitude problems of the group members..

I still remember the conflict that popped up between Cris, a very special friend of mine, and to some of our groupmates… cris was accused of being the notorious girl, a real offender for reasons that she barely knew at that time.. I acted as the mediator between two parties and fortunately, all things has been settled now.. (grow up kids hehe!!)

Our stay at Lyn’s house was probably the most cherished moment I have with all of ‘em.. we took pictures in their garden with the whole cast of microlink and even had our VTR’s for the final defense of our project.. the VTR making was like the most hilarious thing each of us has done remembering the lines I wrote for each and everyone of us..
(im laughing so hard right now when I remember Ang uttered his spills… geez!! He was so damn stiff and even look like a hostage in a stake out crying out for ransom.. lolz…)

And then the final defense came.. our hearts literally would like to come out of our chest while memorizing the topics we will be discussing.. the presentation was all set, the miniature and the VTR was already in its place for the judges’ viewing.. we did great in the presentation I think, but for the first question tossed upon us… oh well.. we just smirked!! Smirk as in we smirked cause we didn’t know the answer to the question.. not that we really don’t know it but I guess we were just aggravated by the situation we were into and totally have forgotten the lectures we had cause that’s the answer to that f**king question.. but that's okay..
at least, we know in ourselves that we put forward our best efforts to achieve success for the said project.. though we didn’t win the title for the best group, still, I know that in our hearts and in our minds, Microlink’s number one.. with that alone, no title could ever best compete with the kind of recognition we have carved in our hearts..

Im gonna miss you guys..
