Being a computer engineer in Mapua University is a previlage, it is something not everyone can have. That is why I want to make the most of it. For most of the time, it is studying, not wanting to fail and have that eye-sore of a score, which is red. That is why I study and study if given the chance, because I want to aim for that green score. But being a computer engineer, or engineer in general, we expect to see that certain color that makes even the strongest man weak. That is why we strive, no matter how hard it is. My experience in Mapua as a computer engineer is nothing but memorable and a roller coaster ride, one day you are fine, the next you find yourself breaking down, not knowing where to start due to the amount of work needed to be done. Overall, I am enjoying my time here as a computer engineer in Mapua University.
There are numerous challenges I have faced being a Mapuan. First and foremost, is the dang MATHEMATICS. I am fine at best in Mathematics-- not bad, and not that good. I can solve problems here and there but when faced with nervousness, mind becomes foggy. That is why every quiz in mathematics, I make simple rookie mistake because I get nervous. Although I am still in the process of fixing it, I overcame extreme nervousness by taking few deep breaths and not caring about time constraints. Next challenges is probably this portfolio. This portfolio is on a hiatus because there is not a single idea coming up to my brain no matter how much I racked it, no matter how many walks I took, an idea still is missing from my brain. And I overcame this challenge just by having a simple quiet time, only thinking about how I will approach this problem, then viola! I have created a portfolio.
(Photo of a cat because I want to rest liek de kat! >:C) The Computer Engineering program of Mapua is an intense training ground for a student. This program pushed me to my limit-- my capacity to think of solution and problems has reshaped on how I live. Before I am not the type of person to ask "how?" But rather, I only ask "why?". This program introduced me to a wide persepective on how to approach technical and personal problem. Giving consideration to everything before doing anything.
