Can I just say how effed up yung nangyari this afternoon? We were having a class nung sumabog yung generator. Bigla na lang kumapal yung usok sa labas at nagtakbuhan yung students. All we heard THE ENTIRE TIME was THREE BELLS. THREE. Lahat ng bell na yun lasted only for 15 seconds max at narinig lang namin yun nung nasa lagoon na. Imagine, we came from the 6th floor. Hindi manlang tuloy-tuloy yung tunog. Ano yan break time lang? Recess? Dismissal? Jusko ganito ba kabulok yung sistema sa PUP? Pano na lang kung mas malala pa yung sunog? Magre-relay na lang ba ang lahat sa word of mouth?

Sama mo pa yung ibang mga prof/admin kanina na naka sasakyan. Nagmamadaling umalis ng campus??? Nakasasakyam na nga kayo hindi naman kayo marunong tumabi nung dumaan yung bumbero. Ang daming students dahil bottle neck sa exits tapos yung ibang sasakyan nauuna pa??

so-called professor! Ang baba na ng standards mo PUP!

Sure may sarili kang company, CEO ka, and nag-professor for PUP ngayon. Kung CEO ka, you would know how to handle your students PROFESSIONALLY! But no! YOU COULDNT.

FOR CONTEXT:

This prof DOES NOT teach, kada online class ay debate-like yung ginagawa nya, ishoshow nya yung AI GENERATED lesson nya, which is not very informative since repetitive sya kada lessons. FOR THE WHOLE 4 HOURS tatanungin nya lng kmi about switches and after sumagot ng isa, hahanap sya ng mag didisagree sa sagot! HAVE WE LEARNED HOW TO BE A NETWORK ADMIN? NO!

BECAUSE. HE. DOES. NOT. TEACH.

So previously, two months ago, binigyan nya kmi ng major project, gumawa kmi ng website with network security para madefend sa attacks/hack nya. Okay gumawa kami, may log-in na, may dashboard na.

THEN LAST WEEK, binago nya yung project! He wanted a camera type sh#t program with a physical cctv, and switch (deadline is June 3rd week).

Okay. Scrap yung website, but retained ung login nmin which is inayus nmin. Sa time ng class nya, gusto nya nasa online meeting kmi as a group. Wala sya sinabi that he would grade as weekly depending on our progress.

But WE have progress!

He joined our meeting. He asked to see our progress, we showed him our code, and log-in. HE WANTED THE CAMERA PROGRESS.

Okay sir, sorry we havent done that. But why would you say na WALA kaming gawa? Of course we'd defend ourselves na hindi nmn kmi walang ginawa. Why would you get angry, and shout at us like a child? Our leader was NOT saying that other groups are just lucky, sinabi nya lng na last week mo binago yung major project.

Sisigawan mo kami na "Hindi naman tayo mga bata dito para pakitaan nyo ko ng ganyan!" "Hindi yan yung gusto ko! Gusto ko ay yung camera nyo!"

You are already old, and also the boss of a company you've had for years. You couldve handled the situation more professionally but no.

If we're being honest here, your website needs a lot more improvement than ours because you lost all the homework and major activities we passed on your website that keeps crashing everyday.

PUP, IS THIS HOW LOW YOUR STANDARDS ARE NA?

freshie life

sobrang boring ng freshie year ko. mabilis kalimutan, walang memorable experience, walang “naalala ko noong freshie year tayo, ganito ganiyan” sa future.

ang hirap kapag wala ka pa ring gaanong friends sa block ninyo. i mean, may nakakausap, may nakakasama, pero not totally “friends” na makasasama mo sa galaan, makakakuwentuhan kahit hindi about acads, yung masasabi mong school friends lang talaga sila. and sobrang bilis maubos ng social batt ko tuwing kasama sila. siguro kasi parang pilit yung pag-uusap namin & hindi ko nalalabas yung kung ano ako. parang ina-adjust ko yung personality ko based sa kanila para lang makasabay ako sa kanila ganoon hahahaha

nahihirapan ako mag-adjust. hindi lang dahil sa program ko kundi pati na rin sa pakikisalamuha ko. patapos na yung school year pero hirap na hirap pa rin ako makipagfriends sa mga blockmates ko. ang bigat niya sa feeling. minsan pag tinitignan ko mga blockmates ko na may kaniya-kaniyang cof, hindi ko maiwasang mainggit kasi gusto ko rin ng ganong friends na kavibes mo, nakakasama sa kuwentuhan about life & outside acads.

how to make friends? :(

Good evening everyone. I would like to clarify that this post is also a call for a proper discussion on how we could respond properly during an emergency, and not just a simple rant.

I understand that some of you want to leave early and as quick as possible, but pushing your co-students is wrong. Also, laughing and taking selfies, vlogging, taking videos WHILE you are evacuating the premises is extremely insensitive and irresponsible. You risk the lives of many people by standing there to film a video and take photos.

Furthermore, please do not laugh or thank anyone because it seemed convenient for you (enjoying the situation because a class or exam is cancelled). It was an emergency that could have been much worse.

We're lucky that this time that the fire didn't spread and grow bigger. But what if did? then it won't be only your life at risk, it will be the lives of many.

Please, and I sincerely beg you, to be responsible. Do as you were told during drills, remain calm, and be on alert. We don't know what the future holds for us. Today it may be a fire, tomorrow it might be something worse.

I hope that you may take this opportunity to reflect on your actions.

Online classes due to Generator Fire

May generator fire na nga na nangyari recently, may official advisory na nga from BOTH PUP SKM and the university itself na online modality until further notice dahil affected yung Main Academic Building (East and West Wings) at NDFT…

tapos bukas may 9 pinapapasok kami para magkaklase/magmeet sa hallway ng NDFT? 😭

Hallway talaga? After magsabi ng university na online muna? Ano to, loophole? Hindi classroom kaya technically hindi violation? 😭

Iykyk alam ko may makakakilala kung sino madalas na walang consideration sa safety at commute ng students niya sa department basta magpapasok lang siya

Hi! freshie here, consistent honor student in jhs-shs. Average student na naka rely sa natural intelligence and stock knowledge. I haven't really voluntarily recited for like close to EVER in my entire hs life bcs may severe social anxiety and stage fright ako. Fortunately, nahatak ng exams, ww, pt yung grades ko but mahina talaga sa recitation as in NO talaga.

I can handle naman since wala din naman akong choice except to face my fears para makasurvive, pero ang na eexperience ko kasi currently is almost lahat ng professors nagpaparecitation and it's honestly taking tolls to my mental health na to the point na nagrrandom panic attack na ako in class, ang anxious ko pa lagi sa class since index cards and random tawag yung form of recitation ng profs and nakakapressure pa makita na halos lahat ng classmates mo active sa recitation tapos ikaw wala lang anjan lang. ANG HIRAP HIRAP HUHU

To people who are experiencing and experienced this similar as me, what is/was your coping mechanisms to overcome it?

Makakasurvive ba ko neto sa PUP?

Ty!

Hindi ito simpleng aksidente. Malinaw itong resulta ng matagal nang kapabayaan sa pondo, maintenance, at sa mismong kalagayan ng ating campus. Habang tumitindi ang heat index, lalo namang lumalala ang kondisyon ng mga pasilidad na dapat sana ay nagpoprotekta sa atin. Tayo na mga estudyante ang direktang nalalagay sa alanganin, nag-aaral sa hindi ligtas at hindi makataong kapaligiran. Nakaka-frustrate at nakaka-alala. Hanggang kailan tayo magtitiis? Panahon na para igiit ang sapat na pondo at isang ligtas at maayos na eskwelahan para sa lahat.

ang hirap maging average student

incoming 1st year student po me this year. nag-apply ako sa mga univs, dalawa galing sa big 4, isang private uni, at tsaka pup. unfortunately, di po ako pumasa dun sa dalawang schools sa big 4, and yung isa don is dream school ko as in simula pa nung elem ako nakatatak na sa isip ko na dun ako mag-aaral.

simula nung bumagsak ako sa dream univ ko parang nawala lahat ng diskarte ko. may back-up school naman ako (which is ung private university) and kala ko secured na’ko sa college. dati iniisip ko na kakayanin naman namin kung magtitipid ako kaso habang tumatagal, na-gguilty ako lalo na sa parents ko dahil unang-una, napakamahal ng tuition fee. eh kahit maganda naman ang reputation ng school na yon, almost 100k ang tuition per sem. masyadong mabigat.

we’re a middle class family, kakayanin naman daw, kaso “KAKAYANIN,” hindi “KAYA NATIN.” which is sobrang nakakaguilty kasi ayoko maging pabigat lalo’t na napakahirap ng kukunin kong program. e pano kung bumagsak ako don sa school na yon? edi sayang lang ung inubos na pera para sakin.

ang daming nagsasabing “rejection is redirection,” e panong mareredirect kung di naman kakayanin ang direction na napupunta sakin.

hahahaha Lord wag mo naman kaming pahirapan. ang tanging pag-asa ko nalang talaga ay pup.

sorry medyo drama walang mapagsabihan 🫠🫠

ftf classes for midterms exams

hi everyone, gusto ko lang i-vent out ang frustrations ko.

so itong isang midterms exam namin sa isang geed ay ilang beses na narescheduled. i think 4th time na siyang nausog, dahil sa dami ng mga nangyayari sa block namin at sa pup mismo. naresched ang midterms namin ngayon (monday, 10AM), syempre nagtataka kami paano kami papasukin sa pup knowing na wfh set up every monday. nag ask na nga yung course rep namin ng gabi, and still kinonfirm pa rin ng prof namin na ftf siya.

so, eto na exciting part. around 8:20 AM nag message siya sa ​gc namin, asking if naka alis na ba kami at mostly sa amin nga ay naka alis na, dahil takot ma-late at galing pa sa malalayong lugar. sabi niya pa hindi raw talaga pwede mag conduct ng ftf classes, kahit pa may letter ng prof.

super nakakapanghinayang at nakakainis lang, gumising ka ng maaga tapos bumyahe at naglabas ka ng pera (buti sana kung marereimburse e) para lang makapasok​​​, tapos biglang maca-cancel. sana talaga hindi na pinush through yung ftf today knowing na risky nga siya at walang kasiguraduhan na papayag ang admins ng pup sa pag conduct. di ko na alam ano pa gagawin ko kasi ftf pa rin modality ng exams, but may mga cancellation of classes pa rin dahil sa heat index.

nakakapagod, nakakainis, nakakafrustrate yung ganito. sana matapos na kami sa exams na ‘to.

Nakakaurat lang minsan kasi nadadamay kaming mga PUP students na gusto lang naman makapagtapos nang maayos. Dahil sa image na nabubuo sa iba tungkol sa “aktibista” na students, parang automatic na nire-redtag na agad lahat, kahit hindi naman kami involved sa rallies or anumang political groups.

Ang hirap tuloy kasi kahit sa ibang opportunities or job offers, may hesitation na agad sa’min—parang may negative connotation na dala yung pagiging PUP student. Eh in reality, iba-iba naman tayo ng paniniwala at priorities. Hindi naman fair na i-generalize lahat.

Wala naman akong problema sa mga taong active sa advocacies nila, pero sana hindi nadadamay yung iba na gusto lang tahimik na mag-aral at magtapos. Sana mas maintindihan ng tao na hindi iisa ang boses ng buong student body.

Gets ko naman na may pinaglalaban kayo, at bilang pare-pareho tayong galing sa iisang alma mater, somehow dama rin namin kung ano yung ipinaglalaban niyo. Pero ang hirap lang tanggapin na minsan, nadadamay kami sa consequences—lalo na kapag naaapektuhan na yung opportunities na para sana sa amin.

Nakakalungkot kasi imbis na makatulong sa lahat, may mga pagkakataon na parang nahaharangan pa yung chances namin na makapag-grow, makapag-apply, o makapasok sa certain spaces dahil sa stigma na nadidikit sa buong student body.

Sana lang may balance—yung napapaglaban pa rin yung mga paniniwala niyo, pero hindi rin nasasakripisyo yung ibang estudyante na gusto lang mag-aral, magtrabaho, at magkaroon ng maayos na future.

Hindi ko alam kung mali ako for thinking this way but… ayun talaga yung ramdan ko ngayon eh. Pasensya.

​[GIVEAWAY] Out-of-print BluPrint Books (2050 & Design Matters) for my fellow PUPian Arki students! I’ll handle the Lalamove fee! 🏗️✨

Edit: The books have been granted! 📖✨

​Thank you so much to everyone who reached out! 💖 I’ve found a student who will be putting these to great use for their thesis. I’m so happy these are going to a new home where they’ll be used and loved! 🏗️

​Good luck to all our future PUPian architects with your plates, research, and graduation! Rooting for you all! 🚩📐✨

Hi everyone! Calling all my hardworking PUP CADBE students! 🚩

​I’m currently decluttering my library and I have two "holy grail" local architecture books that I’d love to pass on to a new home:

1. ​BluPrint for 2050

2. ​Design Better (edit: Prev. Design Matters, excuse the Tita in me, can't edit the title na 😭)

​Why I’m giving these to a student and not a library:

I really want these to be "active" books! I know libraries can be a bit strict with borrowing, so I’d much rather these stay in a student’s hands. I’m actually hoping they get "laspag" from over-use! Please feel free to trace them, use them for late-night plates, and pass them around.

​My little request:

If you can, please share them with anyone in our school community! I know how great we are at sharing resources at PUP, and it would make me so happy to know these are helping as many people as possible. If you guys still have that student hangout room or lounge in our building, you might even want to leave them there so you don't have to carry these heavy books in your daily commute.

​How they can help you:

These are super helpful for generating thesis ideas and presentation layouts. They show actual work from real design studios here in the Philippines, so they’re perfect for local case studies and seeing how the pros handle site analysis!

Condition (Good as new!):

The books are actually in beautiful condition. The pages are crisp, perfectly intact, and they still have that amazing "freshly printed" smell! There were just some tiny external marks from the air circulation in my room, but I’ve carefully cleaned the edges so they look great.

​If you’re interested:

I’m looking for an incoming 4th or 5th year PUP Architecture student. Since I really want these to help with research, just send me a DM with: ​

A quick photo of your PUP ID or Registration Form (Please feel free to block/redact your name, photo, or private data! I totally value your privacy, I just need to see the school and year level).

​Tell me a bit about your initial Thesis Interest or Topic!

Bonus:

If you’re looking for a specific topic for your research, let me know too! I might have other books in my collection that I can tuck into the bag for you.

The Deal:

I’m based in QC, and I’ll be the one to shoulder the Lalamove fee to send them to you (either to your home or straight to the school gate).

​I’ll pick someone who seems like they’ll really get a lot of use out of these. Can’t wait to hear about your thesis ideas! Good luck with your studies, future architects! 🏗️💖
