2007-09-11 02:32 Update On The Cris Anthony Mendez Murder Case
I've been calling the death of Cris Anthony Mendez a murder, it just seems like the only appropriate word to describe the hazing that led to his death, and the alleged involvement of Sigma Rho. A graduating public administration student from UP-Diliman, he had his whole life ahead of him. Here's some updates regarding the case. The Quezon City Police Department is eying 15 suspects who may have been involved in the hazing that lead to Cris Anthony Mendez's murder. Those being investigated includ …

2007-09-07 14:13 Battered Brother Syndrome
The case of Cris Anthony Mendez has been on my mind, and no doubt on the minds of many Filipinos. A graduating Public Administration's student of UP Diliman, about to pursue Law, he is another victim of fraternity violence, an all too common scenario that is being played out across the many institutions in The Philippines. This murder, and it is a murder, was allegedly perpetrated, by no less than his soon-to-be Sigma Rho fraternity brothers. Now, that's what they call love. And what exactly was …

2007-09-05 21:40 Stopping the culture of fraternity violence
The Executive Committee of the University of the Philippines Diliman condemns in the strongest possible terms the senseless and highly deplorable death of Cris Anthony Mendez in what has been reported to be a fraternity hazing incident. We share the grief and incalculable loss of the Mendez family. Cris Mendez was about to graduate from the National College of Public Administration and Governance, and was expected to graduate with honors. He was a consistent scholar and responsible student leade …

Maniwala kang bumibigay ang kisig at bisig, maging ang halkhak na kayang tabunan ang mundo ay napapaos. Marahil sa pagbibilang, kung ilan, ilan ang naging klase ng berdeng nakikita ko sa sabay-sabay mong mukha (at ang buhay mong walang bilang) makukumbinsi ng pakiramdam na lugmok sa loob, na huwag umalis nang mabilis …

2007-09-01 14:25 Definitely not running for honors
This is not a graph of the Dollar-Peso exchange rate the past few months where the lower the value, the stronger the Philippine Peso gets. It's how my GWA* (General Weighted Average) plunged through my n-years at UP Diliman, ehe. They say that a picture paints a thousand words. Well, here's a quick recap of the story behind the 'picture'.. (Click the picture for a larger view) 1) It's my first sem ever in college and obviously, at UP. Incidentally, it's also the highest point of the graph, haha! …

Hahaha! Okay, I'll continue now. Yay, new icon! Nothing fancy, but I animated it myself. That's pretty much what I look like upon coming home and collapsing on my bed. This week was a colorful, turbulent blur. I can't believe it's already Saturday again. And that I had been out late every single day of the week. I can't get used to this, haha. I suppose I should use the weekend to catch up on sleep. My body's starting to feel achey. After the UP CFA art fair, I'm going straight home to relax wit …

They're going to be sold during that art fair at the College of Fine Arts tomorrow (September 1). I'm not sure about the price and I'm not in charge of that so don't ask me!

I didn't get to watch the round but I was told that Xavier University (formerly known as Ateneo de Cagayan) beat the University of the Philippines Baguio in the fifth octofinal round of the Square Off! Debate Championships. Xavier becomes the first provincial school to advance to the quarterfinals after schools like Western Mindanao State University, Mindanao State University - Marawi City and University of Baguio failed to secure a slot in the next round. This is an upset of sorts. UP Baguio wa …

2007-08-28 06:06 Finding your financial personality
A very wise man wrote that money is more about the mind, more than the math. I tend to agree, considering the results of recent Money Makeover sessions with volunteers Diego and Bianca, and Sheldon. As I recounted in this post, financial planner Augustus J.V. Ferreria began his Money Makeover sessions by asking our three volunteers about their childhood, parents, siblings and major milestones in their lives. During that meeting, several initial analyses came out. Diego was deprived as a child, h …

2007-08-26 15:59 Bloody Thursday
About a week ago, I noticed a bond-paper size advertisement for a blood donation drive that will be held at UP Diliman. Of course, such blood drives are no strangers for us UP students. At least one organization will hold such in a month, in partnership with the Philippine National Red Cross. Anyway, the teaser enumerated the many benefits of donating blood: knowing your blood type, being prioritized in case you yourself would need a blood transfusion someday. But the reason that really caught m …

Memorial of the Queenship of Mary My Lord, I beg for the grace of deep appreciation of Your gifts to me, especially the gift of life, of free will, and of becoming. Today s Gospel and memorial pointed much to acceptance and appreciation. In Christ s parable, the workers, who were hired first, were jealous of the salary terms of those who were hired last. They felt an injustice was committed to them yet the owner reprimanded them of their irrationality. They overlooked the generosity and instead …

The weather has actually been pleasant today - so much for the storm. It's become one of those cases of being over-prepared because the last storm caught us somewhat by surprise. Today has a bit of drizzling here and there but most just pleasantly cool overcast skies without excessive rain nor sun. It's the kind of weather that makes staying a bit longer in bed all the more tempting and triggers the urge to stay home to read a book or watch a movie. Work was okay - still working on a fair number …
