In honor of our alma mater's centennial, reminisce muna ng college days. I tag all the Diwatas. I hope to see you all in July and August, join tayo activities sa Peyups :)
1. ano’ng student number mo?
8210754
2. nakapasa ka ba or waitlisted?
Pumasa siempre
3. pa’no mo nalaman ang upcat result?
Received letter of acceptance via our guard sa subdivision. Apparently, tinamad ata kartero kaya iniwan na lang sa guardhouse. That explains why lapit na pasukan wala pa letter ko. Dahil makapal ang sulat, I knew I made it.
4. first choice mo ba ang UP?
Yup, my dream school!
5. San ka pa nag-apply?
I also was accepted at Ateneo kaso layo ng tuition, P200 sa UP, P2,000 sa Ateneo at that time. Besides, I felt UP was the better school, he he.
6. ano ang first choice mo na course?
Accounting sana but since quota course yon, I decided to take up AB Socio then BS Stat in the meantime, then shift later to BSBAA. To shift, I needed at least 1.75 average, I did better with 1.4 but the college was not admitting at that time, so I shifted to BS Math and tada! Graduated a nerd, he he
7. Best experience?
Hanging out with the Frating Beauties at the tambayans, lagoon and the dorm. Crushes siempre, uuuuy! And realizing madami pala kaming matatalino, he he
8. Bad experiences?
Lines, lines, and long lines. Joined the RVC just to avoid the nightmare. And realizing that madami pala mas matalino kesa sa akin, nyok
