Pwede ba sumali sa UG kahit graduate ka na?
yes! :D
Paano po?
medyo mahirap lang kasi ang layo mo pero kung pupunta ka ng TKK this friday sa UP Town Center, approach ka ng UG member (UG ppl will wear white) and then let's see from there~ may informal interview, then formal interview, tapos ayun, maging active ka sa mga events hosted by UG at tumambay ka (but idk how that'll work out kasi medyo malayo ang UPLB... pero keri naman yan~~) jsyk, i am not a member yet, i'm a batched app, and the app process is long but it's v much worth it!!
Pwede ba sumali sa Underground Music Community kahit from UPLB?

paano kayo nagmeet ni johann and how did u guys fall in love? cute niyo po forever #relationshipgoals
we met at this drug market where we both wanted meth and, viola, we fell in love~*~* joke lang sheesh. drugs are scary, don't do 'em!june 2014, we were introduced by one of our common friends (hello ~jex~ ahaha lel) at a gig at route. we didn't talk regularly after but one night i accidentally followed him on twitter and then we started sharing dumb youtube videos and sad songs at like 3 in the morning. then yeah, come first sem this schoolyear, we were apping for the same org pala (up underground 💕). we saw each other a lot at gigs and when we'd tambay and etc. eventually, y'know, ayun........................... ~*nice thing*~
had a fever when i woke up!!! what did i miss (i am assuming this is mishka??)
feminist ka ba
yes, i am just not very vocal about it. that doesn't mean i care less, though.
What was your first paid job?
i was a graphic designer for scout magazine~ hmm but before that i already made gig/film posters!
i heard being in UP is really intimidating and hard sometimes because everyone's really opinionated and smart and it makes you feel small being in their presence sometimes. have u tried feeling like that?
lol i feel like that 89% of the time!!! but one of my super good friends reminded me the other day that people have different things we're all smart at, and y'know, you don't really have to be smart at everything. i get the feeling though, especially being around naturally smart and opinionated people!!! sometimes it makes me feel like my brain's capacity to learn things is soooo inept but i just don't let it make me feel bad. it helps to read, it also helps to listen. so yeah, i just listen to people talking about stuff and read more about something if it interests me, or if i think it'll help me in the future or whatever.
Hi ches! what are your thoughts about other collage artists out there that's somehow similar to you?
e.g. Reese Lansangan etc.?
hello! sorry i only got to answer this now. i feel like the number of collage artists here in manila is pretty small compared to the number of illustrators, painters, etc. but hmmm i don't really consider that a bad thing! anyway, i love reese lansangan's works. as well as jel suarez's! what i really like about their work is the seamlessness of the elements they incorporate together in their pieces. i just find it very cool. yeah... collage-making is fun. :^)
tumblr accounts to follow?

thank you for the advice omg but wow u got a scholarhship and was on dean's list im just an average high school graduate who has to face the future soon :c my plan is actually to enroll in any UP Campus (preferrably Visayas) then get high grades to transfer to Diliman in the future hehe
when i was in high school i was average too HAHA i swear you will get super motivated and grade conscious when you enter college especially if you're aiming to transfer to another school. idk, that's what happened to me. but best of luck to you!! one year in another school isn't a waste!! waste of money, maybe, but there are still a lot of things to learn in that school, just keep your mind open all the time.
UP was my first choice for college, second was UST and since i ((thought)) i didnt pass UP I enrolled in UST... then my UPG came and turns out i qualified for my second campus choice wc was UP Cebu but i guess there were no slots left for me lmao my dilemma was actually yeah should i enroll (1/2)
(2/2) and study in UST for a year then transfer to UP?? but then turns out UP doesnt credit subjects u took up in a diff school sa I chose to apply for reconsideration in other campuses (UPV) instead cause like if i study in UST then transfer its like i just threw away one whole year, plus $$$ sooo*** ah, i get it. that was what happened to me before too. i got my upg and i passed up manila but there weren't any slots for me so i just stayed in a different school for a year.if you think you're being bothersome to your parents especially in financial matters, then maybe you should reconsider transferring. but okay, in all honesty, if you think that UP will be the school that will really help in your growth, then you should still do it. idk. i was really a tough decision for me too. in my previous school, i had a scholarship and i was always on the dean's list and now that i'm in UP, i'm just a pretty average student because lol everyone is hella smart and competitive. but yeah, it actually pushes me to work harder. just think about it first. deliberate and consider all the factors you're going to work with. do you /really/ want the course you're going to take if ever you transfer to UP? when you're in, will you make sure that you're going to maintain good grades? etc, etc. money won't really be a big issue if you're enjoying what you're taking. that's better than "wasting" your entire college life with your "what-ifs". don't you think it's also a waste of money if you're not completely happy with the course/school you're enrolled in? being in a course/school that you feel like you're not exerting your full capacity in for four years is more wasteful, i think, than transferring to your dream school/course after a year. for me, college plays a really, really, big role in determining what your future is going to be like and if you're dissatisfied with the school/course you're in right now then it mike take effect when you start working. it doesn't apply to everyone though. who knows, you might learn to love UST and your course there, right?haha, sorry for that rambling. i tried giving my cohesive opinion about your dilemma and i hope it helps... somehow.
you passed the upcat? you're so lucky :c Diliman's my dream school but i didnt qualify there huhu UP is the dream, generally sigh i'm applying for reconsideration in UP Visayas but i'm shit scared bc what if they dont accept me and i just really really wanna study in UP like *cries*
hello! don't worry too much about not getting in!! i didn't pass the upcat too. i transferred to UP just this school year but i came from another school. i worked hard and made sure my grades were really high (or high enough) for me to qualify as a transferee. it's a long process but totally worth it, i suggest for you to go to a different school for a year, work super hard and do your best to get good grades, and then transfer. but also, you might enjoy being in the school you're currently enrolled in so yeah. just have fun along the way, keep your goals intact, and be open to different possibilities that life has to offer. :^)
i mean this in the cutest way......
you're so small ches sometimes I just want to hug you
hahaha thank you~ :^) you can always hug me po, i like hugs. and other things that rhyme with the word 'hugs' ... (thugs and pugs)
i think the advantage of your height is that "size wont matter" anymore amarite
well, i've p much accepted the fact that i'm gonna be 12 years old forever~ but idk sometimes it makes me feel rly insecure because everyone looks so mature and grown-up and i'm in an eternal pubescent phase. and yeah there are some people who really like to emphasize how tiny i am. but whatever, kaya ko pa rin naman sila suntukin~ jk peace and luv
Thoughts on UP?
#noragrets jk but in all seriousness, transferring to UP is one of the best decisions i've made in my life. there's always something to learn in and out of the classroom, the people are amazing, photocopying and food are hella cheap, the campus is beautiful, and (ugh) i love the cal library + vargas museum so much huhu.what i don't like about it (so far) is how unpredictable it can be especially during enrollment. the fact that we have to desperately wait in line to get a class that we need, and sometimes we don't even get that class is super stressful because what if you're aiming for honors but you're underload for a semester because you weren't able to get enough classes?? or you get a class out of desperation (which is my case rn) and you turn out to be /so/ bad at it. philo 11 will be the cause of death of my hopes and dreams of graduating with honors. :-( i also don't understand the socialized tuition system...... lelbut other than that, UP is a wonderful school. what i love most about it is how diverse the student population is. idk. i want to expound but i'm kinda lazy right now. point is, you will almost always learn a valuable thing or two from your seatmates in your GE classes.
you and j don't seem like you belong to each other. it seems that the efforts are one sided (only from you). but that's just a first impression, but don't you think it's sad that your relationship comes off that way?
i don't really think the effort just comes solely from me. it might seem like i'm giving more of the effort but, trust me, whatever johann does is enough (and more than, even). i guess we just show our efforts in different ways, and that doesn't really mean that we don't belong with each other.i guess part of being in a relationship is accepting the fact that you are both different people, you can't always like the same things or do things the same way, and we both understand that.well, it's just a first impression... and, (sorry i don't want to come off as a bitch but) you are not me or johann so you don't know what our relationship is like. so... yeah. i am happy with him and he is happy with me and i don't really think anyone else's opinion re: our relationship matters.
i would like to think so~ it's not impossible!!!! but right now the main concern should be how we can sustain whatever we have in this planet, not looking if we can ever go to another one if everything turns to shit
Are you ready?
