In high school I went to a Catholic
training school so my upbringing was very religious and conservative.
It was a Scientific-Humanist school, the congregation
of Father Damien of Molokai. The classes were starting at 8:00 am, I used a gray
color school uniform from Monday to Friday, and every day, we were beginning
the classes with a prayer.
The subjects were like those of a normal school: Math,
Language, History, Physical Education, Chemistry, Biology and Physics. Except
that in my school the subject of religion was taken much more seriously, in the
science subjects each had an elective, which in the end were mandatory and we
had Mass every week.
The University has been very different from all this,
because is a state institution, so that Catholicism is completely out of my training.
Classes do not always start at the same hour and are not always in the same
room, the subjects and teachers change every semester, and academic exigency is
much higher, I have more classmates and not always are the same in all subjects.
It's been a big change, a new experience for me, my
life in general has changed a lot since I came to college and I had to learn to
be responsible for myself, as opposed to school, here nobody complains if you
miss classes or if you didn't study for an exam.
Now, I changed the school uniform by ordinary clothes,
the Eucharist weekly by study's nights and parties with friends and classmates.
