If you work hard enough, you get what you deserve, but only if other people notice and appreciate your efforts.. In last year’s General Elections, one of my closest friends in college lost in the position he was vying for. I knew how disheartened he was, but this didn’t stop him from serving the student body. He continued to work under different government units in the university, and everyone saw...

People always talk about “closure” and how important it is when a relationship ends. I never really saw its importance because closure was either given to me or I’d be the one to give it. Last June, *Carlos and I started to have feelings for each other, but it didn’t last long because he was still hung up with someone else. Eventually things ended, but in the inappropriate way. I did get the...

You strung her along and told her things she easily believed. You were always a sweet-talker, she thought love was conceived. You let her believe that everything was real, from the moment you sang to her until the time she could no longer heal. It is taking her forever to realize how much it was not worth it, breathing in, breathing out, what was lost, she couldn’t find it. You’ve...

I never thought I’d be given the chance to do something this big. I’ve always wanted to be in charge of something potentially huge. I’ve always wanted to lead and be able to ignite and spark people’s passion to do something that is of greater good. I finally got what I wanted. But instead of feeling excited about it, I let tears and fears get the best of me. Self-doubt....

We carry our own crosses and I can see how terribly hunched your back is from all the weight burdened on your shoulders with no sign of help from anybody within proximity. You look so helpless in the corner, positioned like a fetus. I can see right through you and all the pain you try to hide. You’re looking for someone who can understand you and listen to all the things you have to say but...

One of my good friends, Cesca, asked me earlier who I’ve been dating lately. I told her no one, really, because I realized that the past guys I’ve dated made me distracted. I became lax with schoolwork. Even if I knew I had to be doing something for school, I’d push it aside. I guess what I’m trying to say is that I suppose the guy that you’re supposed to be with shouldn’t be a...

Today I slept at 5:30 in the morning and I thought it would be easy to wake up after 5 hours and head to school with ease. This was always what I thought because I would always stay up until 4am or 3am doing schoolwork and I functioned properly in school the next day. Today, I think all the late nights took a toll on me. I became extremely forgetful with the things I had to do. I forgot my project...

In an almost deserted street in the less-busy side of Makati, four Filipino men were drinking alcohol in front of a sari-sari store. One man was in a plain white tee and boxers. Another was in a basketball jersey and denim shorts. The third of the four men was in a USA shirt and board shorts. The last one wasn’t wearing a top, just basketball shorts. Early in the afternoon, they were already...

I was in my home’s balcony and I noticed brown dry leaves on the pavement. Expecting the trees around to be barren, it surprised me to see healthy green leaves on them. Weird but striking because where did the brown leaves come from if the the trees had healthy green leaves on them at the same time?

A sea of people clad in Yellow and Orange. It’s campaign season once again. Candidates running along Saint Joseph Hall’s covered walk. It’s chaotic. Regular students look like they don’t give a crap, dodging the candidates at every chance they can.

Sitting in Starbucks across the rear entrance to the Brother Andrew Hall, I saw an impoverished man screaming and eventually getting arrested by the police. It happened so fast that I can barely even give details. What I can remember is that the impoverished man threw his pack of shabu (meth) on the street, just three meters away from campus. It’s crazy to think about how there are hard drugs...

I went to Jogwin to buy milktea and sitting outside Jogwin, I saw Laura sitting down on a stool. Laura is this chic girl who always had her iPad with her wherever she went. This time, she was playing Fruit Ninja with someone. She wasn’t playing with any of our friends, but instead she was playing with one of the street kids that usually asked money from the people that hung around in that area.

As I was walking outside EGI, I spotted one of my friends, looking really classy in a striped yellow and white sleeveless polo, jeans, and black ballet flats. She wore her usual pair of pearl earrings. She let her straight hair fall below her shoulders. She also had a black Longchamp bag hanging on her arm. But then something really strange caught my eye when I saw her. She was scolding a dirty...

Today, my classmate came to the classroom wearing a white button up polo, gray jeans, and brown moccasins. He had no facial hair, and he was definitely sporting a clean look, except… his usual swept up hair was gone. Now his head donned a Mohawk. Someone that wore clothing that made him look extremely pristine now had a hairdo that made his almost-achievable “good guy” look into something that...
