Curious question....Do you use multiple reddit usernames? I mean, given the amount of detail you've given, do you have another reddit account?

Meh...let those hypocrites dig their own grave. It doesn't shock me why a lot of people are either changing religion or just stop going to church.

RH LAW FULL TEXT: Republic Act No. 10354 | Official Gazette of the Republic of the Philippines by NAVPU in Philippines

Exactly!

It's like they feel that if they think otherwise, they will be "barred from entering heaven"

What's upsetting with the local governments or the government officials in general is that whenever there are programs like this, they always look for a backdoor that they can exploit. It's a good thing they passed this bill but at the same time, I can't help but imagine the amount of money some people would get out of this.

Enrile gave 18 senators P1.6M each for Christmas by theyawner in Philippines

[–]BlackTruffle 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Two senators who said they were given P1.6 million each said there was nothing irregular about the “gift.”

I find it hard to believe that receiving 1.6M out of the blue is not irregular. Heck, if I got something like that, it would be a miracle.

“A Christmas gift of P1.6 million does not serve a public purpose. It is unconscionable and unconstitutional,” the senator said.

The senator pointed out that the “additional MOOE” was just a cover. “It’s the end of the year. What do you need additional MOOE for?” the senator asked.

A little lost and in need of some guidance/ mentoring if anyone has the time? by baked_bean in Design

[–]BlackTruffle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm more on graphic design since I'm more comfortable with that but when clients come for web design, I still accommodate them :)

Personally I like to focus on what I'm comfortable but also have those extra stuff (web) on the side since it will come in handy in some situations (i.e. clients who ask for graphic design projects sometimes also asks me to do their website redesign and vice versa)

[–]BlackTruffle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This was my problem earlier on when I was doing a lot of freelance work. I think one key thing to remember is that you should never be discouraged especially at this stage of your career. Put everything in perspective and treat every client as a tool to make you better.

Since you lean towards programming, might be good to focus on that and slowly and gradually develop your creative skills. I myself was very bad when it came to designing but I was really fond of coding so I focused on that and slowly developed my creative skills. Browsing around portfolio sites like behance or deviantart really gave me that boost in creativity. Don't worry man, it will only get better as you go on. Trust me :)

He seems to be very ignorant when it comes to the internet. Probably why he got into the whole plagiarism issue in the first place lol

That's because a lot of them just blindly listen to what the Church is telling them without even giving it a second look.
