Na-culture shock ako sa class sked in college. In my first year, my TTh classes started at 11 a.m., then a 4-hour break before the 4 to 5.30 class. Susan, now that you mention the banyo issue... that's a big, big, biiiiigg consideration. At home, they each have their own bathroom. And they do not like sharing their bathrooms. When we go on trips, we make sure that the accommodations include a private bathroom. So, I don't know how they'll take to the idea of a communal bathroom. Nikita, re erratic schedule.

Susan, now that you mention the banyo issue… that’s a big, big, biiiiigg consideration. At home, they each have their own bathroom. And they do not like sharing their bathrooms. When we go on trips, we make sure that the accommodations include a private bathroom. So, I don’t know how they’ll take to the idea of a communal bathroom.

Very important ang banyo sa kanya, di nya kayang mag banyo pag marumi at marami ka share. At naisip ako nung daughter ko na maloloka ko pag nag dorm sya. Biro mo isa nga lang ang anak mo, wala pa sa bahay. All through out college eh commute sya, (Taytay-Diliman-Taytay) naka survive naman now she's working as management trainee in Libis. When she was in first year, pag uwi laging umiiyak kasi ang hirap sumakay tapos ang dami pang bastos na pasahero. But i'm sure she learned a lot from college. And i would like to share (medyo spiritual), na we should always pray for our children everyday kasi di natin sila mababantayan 24/7, But our Almighty God can do that for our children. I'm sure your daughters will survive college life whether dorm or commute, bec. they are raised by good parents like you and Speedy. Connie, i like how you and speedy train your daughters, I'm sure they will be successful individuals. Susan Hi Connie,

Ang hirap talaga mag "let go". I live in the jungle of QC so di pa problema ang pag-dorm (unless mag-isip mag-aral abroad (kung makakuha ng scholarship) ang mga anak ko) but yes, we have to worry about commuting or car coz college schedule is really so erratic. And my daughter doesn't want to drive (like me!) and I guess, good thing na rin kasi di rin ako kampante about that. Anyway, may isang taon pa til then; can still get inputs based on what you decide with Sam, if ever. :-) Major decision-making yan, Connie. Ang hirap talaga mag “let go”.
