How to accomplish the ballot

Warlordism



"The country’s feudal structure is the material condition
that gives rise
to private armies and warlordism
but it is presidential patronage that
husbands this sub-system."

-Center for People Empowerment in Governance (CenPEG)

NSTP Alert

Pakiusap.
Kung mayroon kayo sa bahay ng mga sumusunod na kagamitan (scissors, stapler, staple wire, plastic strings, art paper, thumb tacks, big plastic bags), maaari bang magdala ngayong Biyernes. Samakatwid, hindi kailangang bumili pa. Gagamitin natin ang mga ito sa pagbuo ng banderitas para sa nalalapit na SocSci Week. Ipagbigay-alam ito sa iba. Salamat.

Maximize the library



"Borrow the books you already bought
with your (or your parents') tax payments.
They’re sitting at the nearest public library.
Buying books you’ll likely only read once is a money-waster.
If you do want to own a copy, make sure to buy it used"

Sunod nga ba'y ginhawa?

Sa dukha magmamarka.

"Patapos na ang unang buwan ng taon.

Mabilis ding lilipas ang Pebrero.
Halos hindi mo mamalayan, dadatnan ka na lang bigla ng Marso.
O thesis, kailan ka ba magkakaroon ng kaganapan?
Ayokong mabagot sa paghihintay.
Lagi kang may puwang sa aking kaibuturan."
