I miss my dorm. Big time. I used to be a dorm girl. And not way back nineteen kopong-kopong ha.. just way back 4 or 5 years ago.
I remembered my dorm while I was waiting for B2 at the lobby of her dorm. While the dormers were passing me by, I suddenly remembered the days when I too, used to stay at a dormitory. Ah, the life!! But my dorm, unlike B2's was way better. And I mean WAY BETTER!! haha..
I entered Tahilan when I was on my first year in college. My parents were so happy that they found a nice dorm for me. It was really nice. You will have nothing to ask for. They don't exactly beat Steph's dorm in Singapore. But when it comes to dormitories here in the Philippines, I'd say it's the BEST!! PERFECT!!
Food's included. Laundry's included too. We get to use our own library inside the dorm. We also had a chapel. Every morning, there were people from Maligaya who would clean up our room, change our towels and sheets and so much more. I remember being served food on the dinning table. Going to excursions that were really so much fun. Hiking, swimming, camping, shopping, we had it all! We even had our own "mentors." People who took time out from their daily hectic schedules just to talk to us about anything and everything under the sun. They even organized small religion classes for us. See? As a parent, what more can you ask for? Right. With our dorm, you don't need to be praning anymore! As a student, Tahilan is truly a good place to start your college years!! ;-)
Tahilan was where I learned how to mingle with people from different places in the country. Regardless of their age. It was where I learned how to wake up early (though it was really very hard!), organize events, proper table manners ( I learned how to open banana with a knife and a fork and ultimately became used to it! my mom was surprised! DI NYA KINAYA!! ), facts and infos about Opus Dei, do charity work and medical missions which I love.. and so much more. Tahilan was where I also met some of my really, really, close friends now!
Now I miss my dorm. And all my dorm-mates.. roommies.. and the staff who helped me grow into my persona now.. staff who did the laundry for me, cleaned my room for me, served me meals at meal times and so much more! I miss all them all misses.. Ms. Marela and Ms. Sarah and my own chat, Doojie.. and the days when I was still in Tahilan.. sure, having my own place is kinda nice at times too.. but living in a dorm liek Tahilan.. is kinda like going to boarding school! The FUN WAY!
Tahilan is near La Salle main so it's very convenient!! It's very safe too esp. with the curfew! It's literally, a stone's throw away from La Salle eng gate.. You can visit the website and go check it out for yourselves at www.tahilan.com or just go and look for Ms. Judith or the ever wonderful and chikadora receptionist, Ms. Nerry. ;-)
