THE CO-ED CODE: Dealing with Boys in a Co-Ed School

Okay, so if you know me, I grew up studying in an all-girls school. I never thought I'd ever get out of that school.

Of course, I left that school quite some time ago. When time came that my Dad wanted me back in a regular school, I kept begging him to take me back to my old school but instead, he let me go to this certain school that had something my old school didn't: BOYS.

I was always afraid of studying in co-ed schools. Maybe it's because it didn't have the security and comfort I felt as when I studied in an all-girls. And also, boys are smelly and annoying. LOL

Not only that: I hear the girls in co-ed are different, too. Probably because they've been used to having guys around while I act so awkward around a guy let alone a hoard of them. But to be honest, I worried about the guys more than the girls.

When I started going to this co-ed school, I never thought hell was real. During lunch and recess, yes, it could get crazy in my old school but in my new school, it's chaotic madness. Guys in my school aren't the most mannered either: they bump into you without saying sorry. They don't move when you say excuse me. They never let ladies go first in lines(heck, no one even lines up in our school! WTF). I loathed it. I really did.

Speaking of unmannered guys, a lot of guys in my classroom are hella rude. There's this one guy who always says "HOY!" to me and speaks to me as if he isn't talking to a lady. I cried because of that guy once because it is hopeless to remain nice to him when he acts like crap. He even has the nerve to kick me in the shins if I don't follow. I MEAN, WHAT THE FUCKING FUCK, RIGHT? GAAAAAAAAAH. And the boys from the higher batches? They surely love to cat call girls. There's this group of guys who think they're so superior and stuff, they have the right to be rude ass to everyone. Hindiba't nakakainis yun?

And do you remember what I told you earlier about boys being smelly? Yeahp, true story. I remember that every time I entered my old classroom it always smelled good since the people in it smelled good and had good hygiene. In this class I have now, majority of it are boys and most don't probably know what deodorant it. They smell so awful. I douse myself in perfume before I leave for school now because once, I ended up going home smelling like the boys. Ewwwww.

But as time went by, you get to realize that not ALL the boys in school are like that. It's funny, but I actually came across some pretty mannered guys. There's this one time I couldn't push the door of my class open and one guy from a different batch said, "Miss, ako na po." I could tell you all the instances of all the polite and sweet things some boys do there but it will just make this entry too long. Also, some guys I know have perfect hygiene and smell divine even at the end of the day. I sometimes think the perfume they use are more expensive than mine. LOLWHUUUT? XDD

I never realized that some of the people I'd be good friends with in my school will be guys. I have more gal pals than guys growing up so I'm really used to talking about stuff with girls more. But it's a different story now ever since I went to a co-ed school. Like yesterday, I screamed and gushed over a cute guy in front of some of my guy friends in my class. I mean, I know I'd never do that EVER to a guy friend. Hahahaha.

Also, I talk to guys easily now. No more awkwardness. No more shyness. No more "oh-I'm-a-typical-Catholic-schoolgirl-who-studied-in-a-strict-all-girls-school-most-of-her-educational-life-and-acts-like-shit-in-front-of-the-opposite-sex" type of attitude. Nothing.

So yeah. Interacting with guys on a daily basis because you study in a co-ed school has kinda helped me. Of course, I still love my old school(Proud Kulasa forevah)and miss being around the all-girl crowd but I'm glad I improved a lot because I went beyond my comfort zone. I went to this co-ed school and ended up learning a thing or two that helped me. I know that in every place fate will take a person, that person learns something new there and comes out a better being. I'd say that it's kinda like that for me. :)
