Kwento, Karalitaan at Kasinungalingan

- Ayon sa kwento ng isang ina, kutsara at tinidor lamang ang baon ng kanyang anak na kolehiyo sa eskwela.  Dahil sa kakulangan ng pantustos ay nakikikain na lamang ang kanyang anak sa mga mapagmalasakit na kamag-aral.
- Ayon sa kwento ng isang maralitang taganayon, inabot lamang ng P300 ang nalikom nilang abuloy sa lamay ng kanyang yumaong kapatid.  Aniya, kulang na kulang ito pambili ng semento para sa pagpapalibing.
- Ayon sa kwento ng isang ama, una niyang pinauubos ang inuming tubig sa kanyang mga anak at apo bago magsimulang magsalu-salo sa hapag para mabusog agad at magkasya ang anumang kakarampot na hain.

Hindi lamang nilang tatlo ito kwento.  Kwento ito ng sambayanan.

P-Noy, makipamuhay ka muna sa mga batayang sektor bago ka maghabi ng kaSONAngalingan.

Boost your chances (updated)

A fresh graduate may be in a disadvantaged position if his/her prospective employers require a work experience as a job qualification.  Given this criteria, a college student may consider the following suggestions in order to improve his/her competitive edge in the employment sector.

- take your practicum/OJT seriously and point out its highlights in your CV
- spearhead major projects in your organization
- work as a correspondent/contributor to your campus paper or in a publishing company
- accept speaking engagements
- apply/volunteer as a member of a conference secretariat
- work as a face-to-face/online tutor
- work as a student assistant in your campus or a research assistant to your professor
- attend conferences, seminars and trainings (your department/program may even serve as sponsor)
- do not compromise your academic standing in the process

Many employers would consider some of the foregoing activities as tantamount to actual job experience and indicative of the applicant's overall work ethic.

Dear Development Studies seniors

Kindly double check if you have already completed the required units in the course for the previous semesters.  Act promptly on your subjects with 4.0, 5.0, INC or DRP marks.  Validate also if you have complied with the healthy mix policy regarding GEs (i.e. taking into account that you may enroll either in History 2 or History 3 but not both, and that Hum 1, Speech 11, Humanidades 1 and Hum Stud 20 are considered equivalent subjects). Under the healthy mix policy, you should combine Math and NatSci/STS subjects and Humanities and Communication subjects for MST and AH clusters, respectively.  Ensure that you have enrolled all the remaining subjects in the DS curriculum for these upcoming semesters.  Apply also for TCG for further validation.  Take advantage of self advising, peer advising and faculty advising to avoid unnecessary graduation-related worries. And lastly, clarify the grade entries in your SAIS account if there are discrepancies.

Posibilidad sa darating na semestre

1. Dahil sa bagong yugto ng buhay ay tinalikuran nang tuluyan ang katoxikan.  Pagtitirikan ng kandila ang katoxikang bahagi na lamang ng ala-ala.
2. Dahil sa bakasyon ay biglang nanabik sa katoxikan ng pansamantala.  Pero kinalauna'y nagmaliw at lumuwag din.
3. Magkwento ng magkwento sa klase ng karanasan bilang magulang ng paulit-ulit at magpa-LPS ukol dito. Early dismissal dahil sa pananabik umuwi.
4. Hindi posible ang buhay-petix sa anumang asignatura ni Diwang Palaboy.  Isa itong malaking paasa/kathang-isip.
