I’ll admit, it was a struggle to accept certain situations that were thrown in my face in the fast few years. But nevertheless, the strength that I’ve asked for has helped me get over them with great confidence. Funny how life works, bad things come and go countless times, yet wonderful things happen almost equally.
I’ve met awesome and beautiful people in my life’s journey in the past years, and I’m honestly happy and proud to say I’ve gotten a chance to get to know them.
My life has been on a rollercoaster ride, as far as friends coming and going. It’s brought a lot of pain and sadness, yet also strength and happiness at that. For those of you who I’ve considered my closest friends, thank you. Thank you for being awesome people …you know who you are. And as for those who, for the best, have decided to move on from my life … I wish you well, may happiness and great prosperity come your way.
(:
Rufio baby, go get me here!
Uncategorized | Comment (0)UP vs other schools
I had another funniest online experience some time ago. I was part of a forum of a Philippine singing contest because I was supporting a friend. Hehe , I won’t tell which show it was.
So I was really bored with what the supporters were doing. They would mixed the contestants’ personal lives with their talents, and the discussion would go from praising their idols to bashing their idols’ biggest competitor.
Being a net freak, I visited each thread in that forum. Even those nonsense. I can’t believe myself! Then I passed by the educational attainment of the contestants. A certain fan was very proud that his/her idol was an ECE from UST. He/she was like - “Oh, _________ is the best among them because he is an ECE from UST” (in Tagalog, pls.translate you Flips). It kinda pissed me off. So I became extra proud and was totally in a playful mood. I replied to this post and said - “Jeez! It’s only UST. I can graduate ECE summa cum laude if I were in UST. It’s not like UP ECE.”
Then another forumer replied and agreed to me. “Oh, yeah UP engineering students and math majors are walking calculators!”
The person we were pissing off replied. “So that’s why UST ECE always tops the board exam.”
I was really laughing but to finally give this person his/her peace of mind, I googled ECE top notchers in P.I. And here’s the most intelligent and humurous discussion I read:
(The forums I found had the same discussion. Read the following post- A certain mokongboy asked a certain thorla a few questions)
1.) Are you saying that UP is the number one Engineering school in the Philippines or you’re saying that UP is the number one university in the Philippines???
= I am saying that UP is the best school overall in the entire Philippines and all the programs it offers is next to none.
2.) Do you know the real reason why some of those UPCAT passers chose UP rather than Mapua??? If yes, then what do u think was their reason???
= I have yet to meet someone who got accepted in UP but turned it down for some cheap schools like Mapua. It is a common fact that UP does not loss cross-admits to Mapua. It’s like someone who won first prize in a raffle draw yet the winner chose the prize intended for the 2ND prize winner. In other words, if UP is a Rolls Royce, Mapua is just a KIA. Now, will someone who won a Rolls Royce pick a KIA instead? Well, if you’re stup~d, perhaps you would. But those guys who are smart enough to get accepted in UP would certainly not do that. That’s a suicide. Turning down a UP education is like turning down a very bright future. UP grads are the highest paid grads. Try to do a random check up of the profile of the Chairman, Presidents, CEOs and COOs of some top corporations in Makati and Ortigas and you would be surprised they are mostly UP alumni. Ask them which school grads do they prefer to work for them, and they would tell you, “UP grads”, straightly.
3.) You said that UP’s diploma is accepted worldwide…. Lahat ba ng kurso sa UP ay kasama dito o ung iba lang??? From what I know, this kind of accreditation chooses only some courses that they think pass their standards, but not all of the school’s courses… Do u have any web links so we can read it??
= You can go to the embassies of America, United Kingdom, Australia, Canada and New Zealand and ask them which particular Philippine university offers degree qualification which has a full equivalency to their respective tertiary education. They will not hide the answer to you.
4.) Do u believe that High standard of quality education is base from how hard the entrance exam of that school???
= Do you really speak English that way? Dude, naiintindihan ko na papalya ang grammar mo kasi nga taga Mapua kalang (no offense meant kasi expected yan sa mga grads ng OTHER schools), pero naman, sa nababasa ko, hindi ka nakakabuo ng wastong sentence gamit ang wikang englis. And you have the nerve to call yourself an UPCAT passer! Yung kapatid ko na grade 7 sa Lasal masmarunong pa ata sayo e.
Anyway, hindi ko masagot ang tanong mong iyan kasi hindi ko naintindihan. Pake tagalog mo muna.
5.) What is your course? Do u think UP is the best school for your course or u just chose UP because you were just impressed by its being number one in the Philippines?? Why??
=What my major is not important to you and should not be involved in this little debate of ours.
6.) Do you accept that not all courses in UP rank number one???
= I don’t. All courses in UP are next to none and are rated number one.
7.) Do you know how to choose school wisely?? Then how???
= Of course, I do. Do you?
HAHA! I HAVE TO MEET THIS THORLA AND GIVE HER A PARTY. WHAT A SMART ASS! I HAD A BLAST READING HER ENTRY (:
