IT 212
On August 29th, I, Natasha Cristina S. Barro, a student of STI College Las Piñas,
wanted to change my current class section. I am writing this narrative report to document the
reasons behind my decision to change my section. The change was initiated due to several
factors that impacted my learning experience, mental health, and overall well-being during this
academic term.
At the beginning of the semester last year, I was assigned to section IT 112. However,
as the weeks progressed, I began to face certain challenges that hindered my ability to fully
engage and participate in class activities. The most prominent among these challenges was the
daily commute, bullying, backstabbing, “parinigan”, and overall negativity that deeply affected

due to the considerable distance between my school and my residence in Zapote Kabila. Upon
disembarking from the jeepney, I am compelled to cover the remaining distance on foot to reach
my house.
options for my journey to and from school. This reliance has its drawbacks. I am no stranger to
the difficulties this brings, as I encountered a similar situation last year. Back then, I had to resort
to taking two separate jeepney rides. Because the jeepneys I needed to board were consistently
crowded, and on some occasions, I found myself having to walk once more after alighting in
Zapote.
This additional travel on foot significantly prolongs my journey back home, often
resulting in my arrival well into the late hours of the night. The combination of these factors
presents a substantial challenge, both in terms of the practicalities of commuting and the impact
2. Long Distance Walk: There is a gate in our barangay that I used to take to get
home early but the so-called 'shortcut' I used to take in order to reach home early is now blocked
off by 8 PM. If I happen to be out during this time, I'm forced to detour and take the longer route,
3. Time: As I'll be arriving home late, I anticipate being quite exhausted. However,
I'll still have to complete my assignments, activities, and other necessary tasks. Occasionally, I
also need to assist with household chores like washing the dishes we used for our meals. This
might lead to a lack of sleep because if I don't attend to my assignments or activities in the
evening, I'll have to wake up early to complete them. Unfortunately, this early start could prevent
me from returning to sleep, as I'll need to prepare for the school day ahead.
can manifest in various forms, including bullying, belittling, exclusion, gossiping, and an overall
disregard for the feelings of others. Such actions not only disrupt the learning atmosphere but can
also have far-reaching consequences on my mental health. Feelings of anxiety, stress, and even
Considering the multitude of reasons I've outlined above, I strongly believe that these factors
should be more than sufficient to justify my request for a change in my assigned class section.
This shift has the potential to not only improve my mental and emotional well-being but also
enhance my overall academic performance, as I can focus my energy and attention on learning
In light of these considerations, I kindly request that my request for a change in section be
seriously taken into account. It is my hope that the well-being and academic success of students
are prioritized, and a more conducive learning environment can be established for all.
Thank you.
