What are your thoughts?????

22 years old yung prof namin pogi naman talaga and he's just teaching part time (sabi nya for 1 or 2 semesters lang daw). On the other hand yung classmate ko 21 yrs old na babae and maganda. I mean there's nothing wrong with this righttt?

I haven't tried both of them. Pero feeling ko kakailanganin ko na rin na magconsume nito ngayon dahil sa dami ng gawain this sem. As much as I want to have 6-8 hours of sleep every night, parang wala akong karapatan dahil sa dami kong dapat gawin.

At ang result ng kakulangan ko sa tulog or pagstay up ng late ay lutang at low energy sa umaga. parang nacocompromise din ang quality ng output ko at di 100% energy ang nailalaan ko sa paggawa.

Ano kayang magandang inumin: Sting or yang Lucky Day? First time ever sa dalawang product. Para kasing may bad prejudice ako sa pag-inom ng energy drinks like Sting nga.

Another thing is mahilig ako sa kape, so medyo interested ako sa kopiko na yan haha. I will appreciate your answers, guys! Thank you

Common na yung maleft out ng kapwa mo estudyante e, pero na left out ka na ba ng sarili mong teacher?

Ganito kasi, I am the elected class president for this term (Grade 12). Pero nung nearing the end of term, napansin ko na wala na nagchachat sa Officers GC namin (kasama teacher dun). Until a friend (our VP) reached out to me asking if I'm aware na may bagong group chat ang CA pero wala ako dun and they thought na baka intentional na hindi ako sumali. I also learned that they have already conducted meetings without me, presiding them is that teacher. I talked to all of my co-officers and they were stunned kasi that teacher mentioned my name once during their meeting and spoke insulting remarks such as I'm a "two-faced" and "Feelingera".

They asked me what happened, and I don't know too.

I was so stunned of course. So I recalled all of what happened these past few weeks. For instance, that teacher already targeted me nung first day pa lang. Tuwing I'm struggling to recite, that teacher would mockingly smirk, even nung class election where my classmates voted me for President parang ayaw niya. I asked my classmates and co-officers kung nag kulang ba ako, and they said no at baffled din sila sa treatment nung adviser namin.

It's so funny kasi I experienced the opposite of this "left out" thingy pero with a teacher.

Ang ulap morado'y tumatagos sa kadiliman,

At bawat kuwerdas ng kunig-liwanag na—

tinutugtog ng mga kamay na pinagpala,

Ay ang dalang hanging bumubusilak sa kundiman.

Pero apoy, bumubulusok ang usok ng pabrika,

ang hanging sinambit ay naglaho,

at ang kamay na pinagpala ay hindi matagpuan,

kami'y nagdarasal sa inyong awa, ama.

Tuhod nami'y nag mistulang lumuhod sa asin,

Nananaginip ng gising, nakatulala sa hangin,

at ang tanging tinig na ating madirinig,

ay ang tahol ng kinabukasang hindi makakamit.

Hi! Looking for a place to buy Pilot g2 pen around Manila. Apparently, National Book Store does not have any stock (according to the staff). Also, if there is a pen you can recommend that is similar with this pen, thank you

How many words do I still need to be able to post.

I just saw a post about a teacher including an unrelated question sa exam nila, and that brought me back to an experience during pandemic. Keep in mind this was an online class, and my Filipino teacher gave his quiz. Sa dulo ng exam, he asked: what’s my FULL name? Okay okay sana kung for plus points, kaso that question was worth 3 POINTS. The exam was out of 25 btw; therefore, 88 ka na agad pag di mo alam. His online class name was Sir [First Name], and he’s probably mentioned it isang beses lang sa introduction n’ya noong first day. Oo, tanda ko surname and first name nya, but he was expecting pati yung middle initial😭. I was 22/25 tuloy; hindi ko talaga malimutan ‘yun because why are we being assessed on that instead of the actual subject. Oo, importante kilalanin ang teacher, but I don’t think those stuff should be mixed in with graded work.

I was just wondering if there are any similar experiences like this? Ano ang nangyari and what did y’all do about it?

Hello! As the title says, for those taking tech degrees like IT, CS, etc. ano general mood nyo and your classmates ngayon?

Are you and they worried about AI overtaking the whole industry as well?

Asking as a fellow 4th year cs student. Most of my classmates parang may pessimistic outlook na rin regarding our degrees lol. I don’t think a lot of them think na they’re even gonna be able to use it after graduation. Grabe internship hunting pa lang it is so dead and super hirap na omg.

Hello everyone! I'm a scitech writer, and also a sports writer. But I was put into collaborative desktop publishing as the LAYOUT ARTIST due to my experience in digital art and having a keen eye for design. And I'd like to ask for tips regarding how to layout in collab. I was recruited just this week when the competition itself is next week Saturday and I'm struggling to learn.. So please, any tips are greatly appreciated!!! Thank u!! :D

i took the i.t. course kahit wala akong kaalam-alam sa programming. i thought at first na puro pagkakalkal lang ng parts and stuff, i wasted months doing nothing and not researching what the course is usually made up of. now i'm struggling on how to perform code writing in hands-on (albeit average naman yung mga scores ko sa written activity na binibigay).

the idea of dropping out was crossing into my mind dahil puro zero ang mga hands-on ko bawat discussion (may nalalagay naman ako pero incomplete). i feel like wasting mga ginastos ng tita ko para lang ibili ako ng laptop, yet i'm underutilizing it. at sinusubukan ko wag isipin mag drop-out dahil wala naman kaming pang private na school. naiiyak na lang ako tuwing zero mga hands-on ko, tapos 37/110 pa midterms ko. the problem might be me not knowing what i'm entering, then complain why it is so hard.

it's hard to hope that i will have a high score in finals or pass this semester and i'm feeling like going to college for nothing.

i’m planning to enroll in a review center this november for the May 2027 Chemical Engineering Licensure Exam. I already have two options, but I’m having a hard time choosing between ARC and 10RC.

some of the pros I’ve heard about ARC are that they’ve been producing most of the topnotchers in the past few years (not planning to be a topnotcher btw), so I think they’re pretty reputable, which might explain the expensive tuition.

as for 10RC naman, it’s much more affordable, but I haven’t seen a lot of reviews about them here. if you enrolled in 10RC, how was your experience? would you recommend it?

preferably, I’d like to enroll in a review center that offers regular quizzes or mock exams (f2f) so I can assess my progress and practice my exam-taking skills.

i’d really appreciate any insights or recommendations to help me decide between the two. thank you so much! 🥹

Hi! Please let me rant haha, ang bigat lang kasi. May nakaplano kasing 3 days na practice na wala kaming klase, and I skipped 2 days due to medical reason (need ko magpa-lab and in-advise ako ng doktor na wag na muna ako gumawa ng mabigat na activities after ng lab ko), and nasaktuhan na day na practice namin. Take note na 1 lang ftf namin kada linggo so far since puro kami online. Nagpaalam ako sa leader namin about that, and sabi is okay lang naman. Actually, medyo naginhawa ako since wala kami pera that time pamasahe ko since under SWA (yung parang process kung saan ginagawang libre yung gamot and laboratory mo sa ospital).

Now, bukas is need ko na umattend since thursday na midterms, eh 2 araw na akong wala sa practice. Sinabi ko sa mama ko, ta's nagalit siya sakin since hindi nga alam saan kukuha ng pamasahe, and kinabukasan is ftf namin, so doble na. Partida ilang days kong pinapaalala mga ftf ko sa kanya.

Alam kong frustrated sila since hindi naman kami mayaman, nagsa-struggle kami financially. Dagdag mo pa yung scholarship ko na ang tagal ng update, kaya namomroblema kami saan kukuha ng pera

I'm just upset right now because this is the first time I've ever been late at handing-in a scientific report. For context I'm a 2nd yr chem student and my groupmates are lovely naman, no hate to them personally because they really do help in the laboratory. However, I've noticed a majority of my classmates are very slow when it comes to scientific or laboratory writing in general. Usually doon sa reference finding and writing results/explanations and weakness sa class namin.

I've been sick for the past month because of severe chronic sinusitis and chronic nerve and back pain from a previous lumbar injury, despite all of these I've been working my hardest to catch up with everything academically. Our instructor gave us 2 weeks to complete the scientific report. We delegated the tasks since there were 5 of us.

I and another groupmate were in charge of the R&D while we agreed that EVERYONE would contribute for the RRL. Despite that, I contributed most of the RRL and R&D, with out of 43 references I was the one to find 35-38 of them. I even did some of the work in Chapter 1. I made the outline for our RRL and pasted the unparaphrased content doon just to make it easier for us to paraphrase the next time.

And as I've stated I have been severely sick for a whole month. I've been pushing my body to its absolute limit. 2 days before the deadline of the report there was what I would personally define as "small" things left to do especially if everyone just did their part. My body finally gave out so I left it to my groupmates to finish. Low and behold 4 days later it still wasn't done. I could even tell they used ai in some of their works. I had to finish the RRL, rewrite the format of the references and some of the paragraphs that obviously had ai, and fix the appendices. Thankfully I had some group mates who came online to help me with the table of contents but that was it because they always have trouble trying to find references (a pattern that I've noticed in our whole class huhu).

I don't know, parang I just feel a little disappointed or dissatisfied. I'm not sure if maybe my expectations were too high pero for me despite the fact that I have dyslexia and was still severely sick at the time I was able to finish the work in under 3 hours. Granted it has taken a very bad toll on my body now pero imagine how much more someone who doesn't have dyslexia and isn't that sick could do. Yes, I understand we all have our strengths and weaknesses, pero I think this is a really concerning na weakness especially when nag work tayo with laboratory classes or just laboratories in general :'))

I know sasabihin niyo na "what? that subject is REALLY EASY". That's the funny thing, mas mataas pa calculus quizzes ko when it comes to percentage than my MMW. The thing is, magaling talaga Calculus namin magturo, at higit sa lahat approachable siya sa mga questions. Well, opposite sa MMW namin, ang pangit kausap. Isipin mo simpleng tanong papaligoy-ligoyin niya, tas ayaw niyang pinapaligoy siya kapag kami naman ang sumagot.

I promise, alam ko yung inaral ko, idk what happened bat ganon siya kababa. Baka naconfuse ako sa construction ng tests niya + i rlly dont like the prof na napunta samin.

Hello guys! Freshman (M) student here po. Gusto ko po sana humingi ng advices po and masagot yung mga tanong ko regarding school uniforms po.

Lastly po, recommend black shoes pls.

*p.s. we're desperate :')

please help and treat this post with respect:( i’m almost done with one semester as a freshie and so far there hasn’t been a week/day where i haven’t cried and felt so heavy.

for context, i’m taking slp as my program. it wasn’t my first, second, or third choice at all. i chose it because it was advertised to me by my family as “easy way to make money” and “easy path because of scarcity”, basically sureball i’d get a job if i graduate from it, which i verified as true when i did my own research.

it was so last minute when i decided to choose this, i thought i could carry to push through but it has been really hard to do so. academically wise, i’m doing fine, more than enough. but every time i receive a good mark, i feel a sense of dread instead of relief/happiness because i knew i didn’t study from the heart. and i can only imagine how it’s only get harder for me to balance my studies and my heavy thoughts.

being surrounded by my classmates who i can see are really passionate about it doesn’t help as well. i’m happy to see that but i mourn for the me that could have been like that.

i feel super guilty because my parents never pressured or forced me and i know how priviledged i am to be able to study this so i try to be happy every time they call me to ask how am i am. because i thought i could fake it till i make it but i’m seeing no progress ☹️. i try really hard to love it, i try to join many activities to keep my mind off it, but nothing ever helps

i’m also being hit hard with homesickness and i can’t help but view myself as weak because everyone seems to be adjusting well and enjoying their freshie life and my mind is always somewhere else. and i swear to god i try to keep myself busy but i can’t help but breakdown

and part of the reason why i chose this was because i was too scared to chase what i really want—which is vetmed:(. i heard too many negatives and it clouded my head that only saw myself as a vet:( now i’m too scared that it would take too long and i still cannot bring myself to commit to it.

there’s really no one to blame but myself and i don’t know who to share bmy feelings with. i genuinely do not know what to do

Hello badly want to learn online publishing talaga as a first timer DSPC kaso self learn kasi ako and wala talaga ako mapag reference and even NSPC output wala rin. Any suggestions or advice that I can do is already enough for me. Help a first timer here T - T

Hello po! Baka po may kakilala kayong local suppliers ng proanthocyanidin for our research project lang!

We tried looking sa mga institutions but some of them ay wala and some of them ay hindi pa nagrereply. We badly need this to start our experimentation.

We accept any price po. Thank you so much po!

I dont like the strengthened shs curriculum. having only 3 subjects the whole school year sucks. i feel like im missing out on so much! im not that knowledgeable when it comes to the previous curriculum but i know it had a lot of subjects, maybe exceeding 10 subjects (not totally sure).

this curriculum has burned me out so much. im part of the “academic track” however it is still STEM centered. all of our subjects are major subjects like calculus, chem and phys, and also research 1 and 2.. but thats it..?
no english,, no filipino,, no mapeh,, creative compositions,, nothing else,, theres no subject that can be considered the “fun” subject or one that the classroom can collectively enjoy and bond over. no roleplays, no essays, no film making, no dancing, no exercising.. (the only thing exercising here is my brain)

as much as i enjoy these stem subjects, i feel that the curriculum has taken away the very part of school that makes it fun and enjoyable. i used to look forward to SHS because it used to have subjects that branch out into different unique subjects but now i feel so restricted of the knowledge im supposed to consume …

one thing i also miss are textbooks. since the curriculum changed, the lessons also changed meaning old textbooks from previous years werent used. i miss flipping through pages during class and seeing silly drawings, writings from students before or the occasional papers that get left behind or forgotten which still have names and answers from quizzes hahahahh

i dont know if i worded out my feelings correctly but i hope u get what i mean hahaha. its just that, hearing stories and experiences from my seniors had me jealous that i cant ever have that SHS life.

thanks for listening!

I'm a 2nd courser. I got engineering degree before and now taking up medical field course. And yes ang hirap ulit mag aral after working for years.

Lately, napansin ko na may something about myself. And I don't like it. I'm becoming really competitive with my classmates when it comes to grades, exams or quizzes. Everything.

Whenever I get a good score, I feel happy. But when I find out that someone got a higher score than me, I feel disappointed and sometimes even annoyed. It's not just that I wish I had done better. There's a part of me that genuinely doesn't want other people to score higher than me. I feel good when I do better than them, and I hate admitting that.

I think my age and background might have something to do with it. Since I've already finished a degree, passed a licensure exam, and worked professionally for years, maybe there's an expectation in my head that I should be doing well academically. So when someone younger than me gets a higher score, I feel inferior somehow, as if they're proving that they're smarter or more capable than I am.

Sometimes, I also perceive certain classmates as being smug when they get high scores, as if they're showing that they're better than me. I know that might not always be the case, and maybe I'm just becoming too conscious of how I perform compared to them.

The thing is, I don't want to be this way. I don't want my mood to depend on my grades or on whether I perform better than other people. I want to focus on learning and improving myself, but I catch myself comparing my performance with everyone else's.

I also get frustrated with myself for feeling this competitive in the first place.

Has anyone experienced something similar, especially when going back to school as an older student or after already having a career? How did you stop comparing yourself to others and become more secure in your own progress?

I'd appreciate honest advice, especially from people who've struggled with this themselves.

To any student dancers out there that dances as a hobby or a side quest, can somebody please help me out :')) I'm looking for open/free (if there are any) or low cost dance workshops available near mandaluyong/metro manila. I'm also looking for budget friendly dance studios I can rent hourly when I just want to dance.

IMO I'm a below average dancer as I've only ever danced as a hobby at home and only learn choreos through youtube by myself, I have never been formally trained in dancing. I have been "dancing" for almost 8 years now and still no 'major' improvements as I would like, although I am to blame as I only dance when I really want to and it's sporadic plus I've only really danced to kpop choreos. Recently, I've been wanting to focus on that as I want a way to exercise but also let out pent up emotions through something I enjoy, and I also just really want to improve my dancing and the skills related to it. Plus, whenever I watch dance videos I always tell myself I want to dance like them or I wish I could dance like them or I regret not trying to improve before. It's coming to the point that it's adding to said pent-up emotions so I would also like to ask some advice on how to improve in dancing when I practice/dance at home?

Thank you!!

Nakakainis yung groupmates na ang hirap kausap kapag brainstorming ng concepts at paghahanap ng peg photos. Pero nung may nag-suggest na ng tourist spot, biglang ang daming energy makipag-discuss. Wala pang finalized concept, wala pang reference photos, pero may schedule na agad, oras ng alis, at kung saan pa gustong pumunta. May gusto pang magdagdag ng place na two hours away kahit may groupmates na kailangang umuwi nang maaga. Ang daming effort sa pagplano kung saan pupunta, pero bakit parang ang hirap mag-effort sa mismong project? 😭

Now, tapos na yung actual photoshoot, kailangan na mag-edit at mag-isip ng titles, pero hirap na naman silang mag-reply. I understand na busy kaming lahat and may other subjects na mas mabigat, pero sana yung energy na meron sila sa pagpaplano ay makita rin sa paggawa. Kasi ang dali maging enthusiastic kapag exciting yung activity, pero ang group project hindi natatapos sa pagpunta sa location at pagkuha ng pictures. May editing, conceptualization, at actual output pa na kailangang tapusin.

Hindi ko naman ine-expect na laging available ang lahat, pero sana may initiative at accountability din. Nakakapagod maging yung taong paulit-ulit nag-iinitiate para lang umusad yung project. Ang daming gustong magplano, pero kapag oras na para kumilos, biglang tahimik na lahat. Photography project ba 'to o gala na may academic requirements? ?

hello, ask ko lang po kung saan may mabibilhan and open today na nagbebenta ng A2 tracing paper? badly needed huhuhu, yung extras ko ay puro mali ang gawa kaya naubusan. pls help me, bukas na pasahan ng aking finals plate and hirap na hirap nako mag search online.

baka may alam kayo kung saan meron, willing to go there right away

Now that busy season is slowly approaching, I would like to know your thoughts on having internships at big 4 accounting firms from January to April.

Is there a high chance that we will be neglected by our supervisors because of the tight deadlines they are catching up,or is it the opposite?

To be honest, I prefer a heavier workload over being idle in the office doing nothing. I place a greater value on gaining practical learning experience, understanding processes, and mentorship that I can truly utilize after graduation. 

I’m also open to suggestions for any small accounting firms around the Eastern and Southern parts of Metro Manila. 

Your answers would truly help me in preparation for my internship next year. Thank you so much in advance!
