I have read this post in Friendster [again! kala niyo patay na ko ha?]. Basahin niyo muna...
Message: It's so hirap talaga to study in UP, the
University ofthe Poor. You know, I never wanted to
study here.But my parents kasi, they both went to
UP and theysaid na it was the best school talaga.
Eh 'di I went. But no!
When I got here, Holy horrors!
I was ready to make himatay after the first day pa
lang. Would you believe, there's no aircon na nga in
the classrooms, the fan doesn't work pa. And then
this
guy who was like, wearing a sando, shorts and
tsinelas
lang made tabi next to me. He made pakilala pa!
The
nerve! So I made takbo to the CR to make tago.
But I
couldn't make hugas my hands that were so pawis
from
escaping such a near-death experience. There was
no
liquid soap! Not even a couch where I could sit to
make kikay.
Do you feel my pain na ba? But wait, there's more.
Last Thursday kasi Daddy's Volvo was bawal, eh
the
Eclipse was being repaired, so I had to make
sakay
with my yaya in the Ikot jeep. It was so siksik! I co
uld like, smell the putok of the girl next to me.
Like, it was sobrang mabaho talaga. kasi naman,
the
Ikot jeeps are old na nga, they're mainit pa! Sana
they make palit na the jeeps with a shuttle system.
Okey lang naman even if there's an increase in
pamasahe di ba? So when the car is bawal, I can
use
my
credit card na to make bayad.
Isa pa, you know the Shopping Center? It's so
kadiri
talaga. I'm forced na nga to make Xerox there, (as if
naman I would be caught in that place otherwise)
pero
I'm so inis because it's so madilim and maliit, and
most of the stalls don't have aircon. They should
tear
it down na and build a mall na lang. Then I wouldn't
have to go to Katipunan pa to get my Starbucks
fix.
My gosh, this place is so bulok I don't know nga
why
anyone would bother making turo here pa. Just
yesterday, my professor was kinda inis kasi her
whiteboard marker had no more tinta! Then she
tried
to
make hanap a matino whiteboard marker but of
course
there was none. Duh! Kasi naman if we had laptops
instead of desks in every classroom there would
be
no
more need for whiteboards di ba? But you know
even
if
there were laptops na, the seats are so tigas
sometimes I find it mahirap to concentrate. Dapat
may
cushioning para malambot sa butt, like Downy.
Now I'm in my fourth year na. I don't want to stay in
this place anymore. I don't give a paki if UP's
the best university here. I'm going to transfer to La
Salle, where the CRs have liquid soap. Now na.

How would you ponder on this? Do you think it's really true? Nakakatuwang nakakainis, di ba? I don't know kung kanino ako maiinis, kung sa gumawa ng sulat o dun sa nagkalat ng mga statements ng sumulat. Yes, I myself am disappointed to see someone with that kind of attitude studying in UP . I respect the students of UP because of their abilities and their courage to stand for what they believe in. However, if it really is true, then I would have doubts on the UP administration. I thought UP is different from the other universities that feeds on money to pass a student. Do you really think a lowlife like her will most likely pass the school standards? If she really is smart enough, then she would know for herself that her acts were stupid. Kung totoo ito, eh di totoo din palang bayaran ang UP.
Pero, kung kalokohan lang ito ng nagkalat ng post na ito, then I only have him to blame. Bakit kailangan mong siraan ang UP at La Salle? Don't show to us that UP allowed such people to study in there. Hindi dapat ipinagkukumpara ang standards ng UP at La Salle. Ang UP ay UP, at ganun din sa part ng La Salle. Parang pinalabas mong napakababa ng standards ng UP in terms of technicality, and mahina ang La Salle in academic aspect. Pareho silang may strengths and weaknesses, and that's what makes them unique.
Sige na, magulo na naman post ko. Biglaan eh.
