98th General Commencement Exercises - UP Diliman

ang araw na sobrang init...

mas natuwa ako sa univ kasi kewntuhan lang kami nang kwentuhan

Current Status Update 3 (because my career is an open book)

declined the sun cellular job offer. 'rejected' is the more appropriate word. nauna ang HR sa paggamit ng term. umoo lang ako.

tinawagan ng Shell, pinalagay ko nalang ang resume ko sa pool. :)

currently working on the requirements for masters and scholarships. hindi alam kung pano sisimulan ang CV at narrative

may hit sa nbi. papatayin ko tlaga si philip aguila martinez.

ang pinakahihintay kong email. teaching demo sa tuesday.kung kelan inclined na talaga akong mag ERDT (hindi pwede ERDT kung lecturer eh)

 

UP ERG REFLECTIONS - the Jacket

mag eemo lang ako

i'll try to recall my wondrous memories with ERG (hahakot pa sa baul ng konting pics).

konting kwento kwento lang...

Part One: The Jacket

it was at the freshmen convocation when i first met these people donned in blue jackets. I then thought that the commotion outside the theatre was some sort of a rally, with some people shouting number-letter combinations with matching placards. following the others, a 'kuya' led me to the place for G7 freshies. they then introduced themselves as our blockhandleERGs, our 'kuyas' and 'ates' that will help us in our 'journey to hell'. The first ERG member who talked to me was ate marjo, she was very bubbly and cool in her ERG jacket. She then led us to EEE, walking (as compared to the other orgs who rented jeeps for their freshies. :) ), a blockmate sligthly slipped in a manhole along velasquez, which then became a light moment since it was quite similar to the tricky staircases of our 'Hogwarts' . At the tambayan, there were other people in ERG jackets that welcomed us, they gave us souvenirs - ERG logos with a real 1/4 W  70 ohm resistor (for the upcoming ERG 70). At the back of the souvenir was messages of good luck ( mine was from ate Joc, saying 'Enjoy your stay in EEE! (smiley included)). deeper that afternoon, we then introduced ourselves to them, and got introduced to kuya jeiel and kuya emans, fellow palawenos. That fun activity cemented my decision to be one of them. not only because of the happiness i experienced from their company,not only because i feel one of them (like that of a family), but because of their cool jackets.

and that was the start of my ERG adventure. :) 

it is ironic that i still dont have the reason why i joined ERG in the first place - the cool jaket.

PRAYER FOR MY BATCHMATES (INSPIRED BY CHARLES' BLOG)

Lord,

Thank you for the past four and a half years. by making us stumble at times, we got back on our knees, refreshed, enlightened, and determined to take another shot.

Thank you for EEE. Maybe it was your way that our stay in the department was plagued with hardships. but true friendships are forged and tested at the hardest of times. Not only friendships, but personalities. I, for once, will never be as strong as i am now if not for EEE.

Thank you for my batchmates. I can never ask for another set of people traversing the same dusty road. though some of us are ahead or behind the pack, i am grateful that we are able to check each other, offering a helping hand to those who needed it most.

Thank you for being there. they may be instances that we may not notice your presence and guidance, say a mental block in an exam or oral defense, you always see to it that there is something in store for us in your time.

As we go along this journey, we ask of you this tiny favors:

1.) Give us presence of mind.
so that we may be observant, not blind.

2.) A keen sense of engineering.
so that ones, zeros and other formulas to have their meaning.

3.) extensive comprehension
so that we may ace through sets of equation.

be it a probset, an mp
the list goes on, its a never-ending story

we only ask you to be near
as we strive to become an EEEngineer
