Disclaimer: Tips are subjective to MY experience as a UPM freshman. Who knows, they may apply to you, too.
- Utang na loob lang, wala dito ang Sunken Garden. At ‘wag na ‘wag kayong maghahanap ng Toki at Ikot.
- Beware: DPSM— Department of Physical Sciences and Mathematics A.K.A. Department ng Puro Singko Magbigay.
- ‘Wag magugulat kung may cameramen na humahabol sayo sa may bandang DOJ.
- ‘Wag ding magugulat pag may rally sa tapat ng gate ng UPM.
- ‘Wag kasing maarte. Tama na ang get-up get-up. Hindi ka paparty, ‘teh. Hindi uso ang dressing to the nines kung papasok ka lang. Pero dress decently parin.
- OLSOW, DOWN BE CONYOW. IT’S SEW KULERKEY, YOU KNOW? Mapapagtawanan ka kung Ingles ka nang Ingles pero wala ka namang punto. Not saying that we should totally ignore English for all it’s worth, but don’t try to impress us just because you have the best diction out there. Wala kaming pakialam kung Ingles o Tagalog ‘yan. Basta’t may punto kang mararating, havey na havey!
- Bumili na ng boots. Dahil ang Taft Avenue ay nagiging Ilog Taft.
- Studying in UP entails academic freedom, but do remember that freedom has its bounds, with respect to the dignity of others.
- Do not be so quick to judge. Magugulat ka nalang sa diversity ng tao sa UP. Ano man ang backgroung ng isang mag-aaral na makikilala mo, husgahan mo ang kanilang puso at isipan, hindi ang kanilang pinanggalingan.
- ‘Wag sumakay ng jeep sa Taft kung nagmamadali, dahil 1.) Nakakapang-trapik ang mga hatid-sundo sa Vito Cruz 2.) approximately 3 minutes ang agwat ng bawat istasyon sa LRT. (Oo, ni-record ko ang time.)
- Question everything. ‘Yan ang kulturang UP. Hindi lang tanggap nang tanggap ng paningin ng iba bilang sarili nilang paningin.
- ‘Wag matakot sumali ng org. As much as possible, sulitin ang first year dahil ito ang taon na pinakamaluwag ang schedule mo. Moreso, it’s a way to gain connections within the campus and a way to take a break from acads. But remember, no fraternities and sororities on the first year.
- Sa UPD, CASAA. S’atin, Robinsons.
- Kung sa UPD, CASAA Ninjas, s’atin, GAB Caf cats.
- Maki-close sa resident photox master ng UPM, si Kuya Exi. Konting lambing at may libreng photox ka sakanya.
- Photox = Photocopy
- Malakas ang wi-fi sa harap ng DSS.
- Hindi natin Chancellor si Lord Chancellor.
- Ang munting lugar lang na mapapagbilihan ng blue book ay si Ate Nutrilicious.
- Ladies, bago magka-crush, alamin muna kung lalaki talaga. Madaming trap sa UPM.
- Huwag matakot makibaka. ‘Ika ngang sinasabi na patay na ang pakikibaka sa henerasyong ito, pero buhay na buhay pa ito. If you’e not big on the rallying part, I suggest you go, even once. Rallying gives our generation a sense of empowerment, to see that the youth in our age still care about this country. At dun rin ako napamahal sa Pilipinas.
- Pag Oblation Run, mag-secure na ng pwesto sa RH stairs at lobby. Mas up close and personal ang Oblation Run sa UPM dahil makitid ang daanan.
- Last but not the least, HAVE FUN! ‘Wag maging GC dahil ang pagiging Iskolar ng Bayan ay hindi puro aral lang. :)
