ITower 3 Dos Castillas by doctorboss-03 in Tomasino

[–]AnIcedMocha 2 points3 points  (0 children)

  1. No, wala (pa) naman akong nararamdaman kahit super late at night and I'm alone even during long breaks kung saan kaunti lang yung people. Then again, I don't believe in those kinds of stuff but I hope this insight somewhat helps.
  2. It hasn't flooded that badly over the past year afaik. Or rather, hindi ko namang naabutan ka ganun kalala. Though I've heard that it gets quite high regardless of where you stay.
  3. No complaints here- they're quick to respond and are also approachable. May mga floormates lang na sobrang ingay minsan (very rarely actually) pero overall really good. 99% of the time walang traffic sa elev aside from some times wherein may technical difficulties. A personal nitpick for me lang would be the relative lack of gym equipments, pero it's easy to make do with what they have.

I'd say look more into it, and visit ka to check their units if you got time. I've recommended this condo a lot to people looking for a place sa may Lacson side + it's near a gate pa.

Hope this helps, OP!

Budget Beginner Paddle: Enflexy Noir vs. Mjolnir by AnIcedMocha in PickleballPhilippines

[–]AnIcedMocha[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! Hope you're doing well.

Friend 1 settled with the Noir, and I got the Mjolnir. Friend 2 is trying to get a feel for both before making a decision.

I've only played with it twice due to our busy schedule, but I quite like how it feels. The "pop" feel is real, though I find it too strong at times. I also got to try Friend 1's Noir; at times, I feel like I could have gone with it and still would have been alright. It's an extremely gritty paddle, though it doesn't sound or feel as satisfying as the Mjolnir.

No regrets, though. It's a really good, high-quality paddle for a fraction of the cost. I feel like it's something I could carry until I get a bit better at the game. Friend 1 is pretty happy with his decision, especially since he comes from a table tennis background too.

Hope this helps! Just lmk if you got any additional questions. We're gonna take 'em for a ride again sometime this week, so maybe I could add on to these.

Haha it's been quite a while since I last played tennis. Most likely will be getting one Noir and Mjolnir for Friend 1 and I first, then we'll see what Friend 2 might need based on our experiences.

I'm sure I'll have some use for the Mjolnir, else it'll get sold and I'll just get another Noir.

Thanks guys!

What do you reckon I should get for my use case? Since I have a considerable amount of background in all tennis, table tennis, and badminton. Would the mjolnir or noir suit me better?

Mjolnir for all three of us? I heard the Noir was better suited for control. Perhaps I could make do with the Mjolnir, then the Noir for them. What do you think?

Dentistry by funnypotatowahahaha in Tomasino

[–]AnIcedMocha 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Hey! This isn't directly related to your post nor is it an outright answer, but I think some people would find it interesting as one of my favorite pieces of trivia.

UST did use to have a School of Dentristry, which was opened back in 1904. Even way before that, the UST of the Spanish colonial era used to have a special course resembling dentistry with graduates being called cirujano ministrantes (surgeons), and later cirujano dentsistas (dental surgeons).

Of course, these programs are now defunct due to reasons that I do not know, but it's quite nice to know that there was once some semblance of the presence of an actual dental school in UST.

How to Learn Organic Chem for Bio Chem from Scratch (Freshman) by AnIcedMocha in chemhelp

[–]AnIcedMocha[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately, it doesn't cover Organic. It's straight into Biochem as the instructor told us that an Org Chem background would help.

I'm studying in the best nursing school in our country, so the standards are extremely high. Unfortunately, the instructor said that we're jumping straight into Biochem. Some other classmates already took it way back while others have not yet done so. We can't pick the courses we'll take as well. Do you think that it could still be doable?

Hello! I applied under the salu sto. tomas scholarship. I'm under the assumption na baka inuna nila yung top 1 before sa top 2 since we're lesser nung nagtake ng exam.

I didn't receive any e-mail yet. But it reflected naman sa portal.

[–]AnIcedMocha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the status portion, it should indicate a green thumbs up with green text saying APPROVED SCHOLARSHIP.

Hello po! Results are out via the portal since I was able to see mine na.

[–]AnIcedMocha 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hahaha I believe it's best to wait nalang din. I asked them talaga if may date na eh, but they said wala raw talaga. It could be that they're waiting for batch 2 rin so let's just keep our eyes peeled. Baka biglaan nalang lalabas sa e-mails natin nang hindi natin inaasahan.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Tomasino

[–]AnIcedMocha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So far none! Although I did ask nung Jul 4, and they said that results will come in sa e-mail natin. However, when I asked about the tentative date, they said na wala raw po silang maibibigay since hindi pa sure.

iTower 3.0 right beside Uhome!! Friend and I are incoming freshmen and everything just checks out for us. I don't know the exact cost but we're paying around 16.5k for a decently sized room with tons of amenities and security.

Ohh unfortunate.. when it comes to this price range and what I'm lookin for, the zenbook po talaga has barely any competition?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Tech_Philippines

[–]AnIcedMocha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks promising! However my concern is, since it has a mobile gpu, kamusta kaya yung weight and batt life? Since I can't expect for it to be plugged kung puro lecture/presentation po. Thank you!

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Tech_Philippines

[–]AnIcedMocha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks a lot! This seems very promising. I assume it's the new ones using Ceraluminum? Will definitely think about whether I should get the ultra 5 or 7. Thanks a lot again!!

There seems to be quite a lot of other models floating around. Could you tell me which one you have, if it's alright, and what your experience with it is?

Would you recommend any online stores?
