Three more months and the UPCAT results will be finally released. I don`t really want to assume nor expect too much though there is somewhat, a little hope in my heart that someday, i`m gonna be an elite student of UP, either Diliman or Los Baños. You know what? Everyday I would pray and daydream about my "iska life", hoping this would all come to life SOON.
So much for that henna-and-her-impossible-dream-thingy. HAHAHA. Anyway, the reason why I posted this is because I would like to acknowledge Professor Solita Monsod in her last lecture to her class.It was really strking even if I`m not yet a UP (especially Diliman) student. She absolutely shot the bull`s eye. It`s true that most of the UP graduates go abroad in search for greener pastures. Maybe, they dream to be successful in their own careers not remembering that the Filipino invested money on them so that they can help in the future. It`s like making our own product and putting a made in china seal on it. UP is not a training ground for professionals who would work abroad rather it is a producer of worthy professionals who would stay and serve their fellowmen.
As we can observe, most of our government leaders came from UP diliman and they are cheaters. they are bright and excellent and all but they use this to mine for more gold. It is "Honor and Excellence"-- the motto of UP. It is not excellence alone nor excellence first before honor. It is honor above everything.
If you are really an iskolar ng bayan, show it and carry with you the honor and excellence UP has taught you. on the other side of life, kakagising ko lang at alam mo bang ang saya ko kasi for the first time, napanaginipan ko ang UP and guess what? si winnie monsod nakausap ko daw. nakasakay daw ako sa kotse nun tapos nakita ko siya. nag-usap daw kami tungkol blog ko kasi nabasa niya daw yun and she liked it. binigyan niya pa nga raw ako ng pera. i refused first pero tinanggap ko rin sa huli. tapos in front of her, nag-promise ako na hindi ako mag-wowork sa abroad at hindi ko gagayahin yung mga leader nating corrupt at cruel. basta. ang ewan ng feeling. akala ko totoo. and actually, di ba lahat ng panaginip ko, may sign na ibinibigay? it`s my first time na parte ang UP sa dream ko. maybe sign na ba yun ng pagpasa ko sa UPCAT? HAHAHA. we`ll see. :))

This blog was created August of 2008. Putting up an account here wasn't really on my plans. It's just that I was so crazy about Chris Tiu before and he runs a blog so I thought of creating my own as well. Years have passed, and I have grown yet I still keep my personal stuff here. Yes, things may change but one thing's for sure -- I will continue running this blog as long as I can.
