I'm not an idiot in Tagalog/Filipino!
RantOkay, my last subject for today was Filipino. For some reason, a few people from last semester (I'm not sure of this, but I do recognize, at least, two of the females from different departments) dropped in (the girl I'm about to bitch about--we'll call her E--is in the BA department). Well, this was nothing usual since people from different classes or whatever tend to drop in other classes to stay in (I should know, I've done this a few times last semester when I didn't have FIL102 [Filipino II] and COM102 [Communication Theories]).
So then, everything seems to have gone smoothly in Filipino (even when the quiz was in and, despite it being in all Tagalog, I surprisingly got a 9 out of 15). Of course, there was the Filipino prof. who was trying to encourage me on participating in class by having me answer something in Tagalog/Filipino, but that's nothing out of the ordinary. Though, he was doing this, E and the others were talking (couldn't quite hear them, despite them being right behind me, probably because I was distracted; from what I could vaguely remember, they seemed to be talking in Tagalog/Filipino).
Class ends and everyone was out except me and a few of the female freshmen. I guess they wanted to make sure everyone was out of the class, so they wouldn't overhear what they were going to tell me. Tricia/Patricia (the girl from the last school vent I made) told me the following:
"While the prof. was trying to get you to provide an example of what he put on the board in Tagalog, E was telling him something like, 'Don't even bother to teach her (me) anything. She's a CA student, she should know how to speak both English and Tagalog by now.'"
This had managed to set me off, to the point I was crying (all the while going in between tears, "Hindi ako tanga!" [I'm not an idiot!]), because of my frustration from the subject's difficulty. More than that, E should understand as the majority of those from last semester (including her) know that Tagalog is hard for me. I thought she had understood, but this told me otherwise. Apparently, she's implying that I'm an idiot for not knowing enough Tagalog (and you think me in the CA department helps your reasoning just because it's basically mass communication?!).
Well, fuck off! I've been in the Philippines for about 9-10 months now and, since you seemed to have completely forgotten, I was born and raised in New York, USA! Tagalog is my disadvantage here and I'm doing all I can to work my way into it!
And how dare you mock me on Tagalog, anyway! It's not like you're an expert on English either!

I'm not attending a university, per se, since the campus is tiny and such. While it may not be along with the big universities such as UST, UP, Ateneo, FEU, etc., I still love my college.
I attend Colegio de San Lorenzo in the Metro Manila area.
