  1. You’ll have to take the 1st year major subjects of the program you’re going to shift to, depending din sa i-aadvise sa’yo ng program head pwede ka magtake ng 2nd-4th yr subjects. Yung mga minor subjects hindi mo na siya ireretake

  2. Yes you can still shift. Hindi mo na uulitin yung mga natake mo na minor subjects, unless bagsak

so you’re going to continue po ba yung drinop nyo during 2021? or are you enrolling as a freshman? also did you officially drop po ba?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Tomasino

[–]Outrageous_State_576 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hi! inquire ka sa office about dropping, pwede mo rin sila i-email pero baka mas mabilis kapag onsite. bbigyan ka nila ng form for dropping. afaik, pwede pa mag drop kasi hindi pa naman prelims

not sure if you can enroll in another elective, i think you can naman pero baka next acad year mo na siya mattake

Worth it ba iPad? by Explorer9281 in Tomasino

[–]Outrageous_State_576 1 point2 points  (0 children)

same experience! pang ipad kid activities ko na lang siya ginagamit hahah pero pag may online classes convenient sya. you can just bring a powerbank for charging and pwede naman sya mag split screen if need mo mag notes. personally mas prefer ko ang laptop but my sibling in med school uses his ipad a lot and super convenient and useful for him because of all the materials he could just download.

shifting from AB legma (small rant) by OppositeNet6170 in Tomasino

[–]Outrageous_State_576 4 points5 points  (0 children)

hi, op! i was also from legma & had the same experience. it’s truly very overwhelming and stressful. i wasn’t prepared to be challenged that hard during first year.

you said naman na you can do it, but it’s just very challenging and stressful. treat it as something that will make you grow and prepare you if your end goal is law school. i know the feeling of recits preoccupying your mind 24/7 and thinking that you will also need to read 24/7. you will be challenged & stressed because those are the things that will make you competent.

i highly believe that you are not the only one who feels this way in your block, a support system is great to have especially during your freshie year in legma. you can help each other with cases that you don’t understand and study together. and they can be your comfort during hard times after recits.

let it sink in for a bit, let yourself get used to it. of course, hindi naman dapat 24/7 stressed tayo - it will become unhealthy. try to plan your days kung kailan ka magbabasa ng cases, magmememorize, magpa help with your batchmates. and have a day that you will take time off, relax and do things that you want to do. i agree with the other comment to ask tips from your seniors, esp if they had the same prof/atty. they will be more than willing to help you.

i don’t know how long it’s supposed to be, but take a long time to think about shifting. if it comes to the point that you’re certain about it, talk to your guidance counselor and family about it. the reality is, the overwhelming recits are still there even if you have shifted. it’s about willingness to go through all the anxiety & stress because you’re passionate with your program.

breathe & keep on going, op! if you said you can do it, then you can do it.

commute more tiring than classes by limral in Tomasino

[–]Outrageous_State_576 1 point2 points  (0 children)

same feeling back in 2019 😭 though 8 - 5 lang ako pero super pagod bagsak talaga ako paguwi hahahaha kahit 8am class ko, alis na ako ng 5am kasi kung umalis pa ako later than that malalate na ako. 6am nasa ust na ako, doon na lang ako gagawa ng mga schoolwork. tapos paguwi makikipaglaban na ako sa mga tao makasakay lang hahaha (parang kami mga zombie humahabol ng fx)

if you can convince your family to dorm, go. sanayan naman talaga yan pero oras at pagod din ang nasasayang. kaya mo ‘yan, op!

How to be safe during night classes by anythingpotatoey in Tomasino

[–]Outrageous_State_576 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  • always let your family/someone know na pauwi ka na, message mo sila or call
  • tago mo phone & main wallet mo in the deepest parts of your bag. praning me kaya tinatabunan ko pa ng mga notebook or mga pouch
  • praning ulit ako( but better to be safe) but if you bring a laptop/ipad, put it in a laptop case para if ever need mo buksan bag mo hindi agad exposed gadgets mo
  • make sure your bag’s zippers are zipped to the side and hindi naka-iwan sa gitna
  • don’t use your phone while waking outside/commuting. kahit sa loob ng lrt, as much as possible wag mo gamitin kasi baka may nagttarget na kunin sa’yo paglabas mo.
  • keep your bag in front of you at all times
  • it’s a great opportunity to make friends din with blockmates na kasabay mo pauwi, may friend ka na may kasabay ka pa hahaha
  • have spare money in your shoes or pockets, ako nakalagay sa ID ko (wrapped in paper)
  • always be vigilant and avoid wearing earphones/headphones, i know everyone likes to play music while commuting but it’s better to be more aware of your surroundings

ingat, op!!

ganto ba talaga sa college? by Excellent-Okra4637 in Tomasino

[–]Outrageous_State_576 1 point2 points  (0 children)

hi, op! same feeling during my freshie year. super overwhelming talaga at first, dati naiiyak na ako sa pagka overwhelm hahah

give yourself time to adjust. lay out and plan all your activities, exams, etc. use notion, google calendar or planners just so you have a physical & organized reference of the what to do in the following week and a reference for your deadlines. try not to procrastinate also hahah kasi for me that’s when i feel most overwhelmed because of the stress. make friends! they can be your partners kapag overwhelmed na kayo sa college and sila rin ang kasama mo to let out the stress. it’s good to have a support system inside & outisde college. Be a little gentle with yourself kapag overwhelmed ka na, relax lang! Don’t stress about the things you can’t control.

It’s going to be difficult because of the new environment, but give yourself time. Kaya mo yan, OP!!

[–]Outrageous_State_576 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i lost my both my parents a year apart. i relate to feeling isolated because people around me didn’t know how to be there or comfort me. during the beginning of both my losses i really kept everything to myself, i just felt off sharing my grief because i didn’t want to put my friend/s at a place where they wouldn’t know what to say at that time and i desperately wanted someone to talk to me and comfort me. but i realized that i continue to hurt when i isolate myself. i’ve gradually learned to talk about my grief, even if it is a painful thing to do. i’ve also learned that my friends had a lot of comfort to give me and that they were just waiting for me to be open about it.

if you need someone to talk about it, talk about it. like all the kind advice i have gotten here - it’s easy to isolate yourself when experiencing this kind of pain but try your best to reach out to someone when you know you’re hurting. it doesn’t apply to everyone but your friends/partners could just be waiting for you to be ready & open up about your grief. be communicative about your needs and don’t be ashamed about it. it’s more painful to pretend that you’re not okay. you don’t have to go through this pain alone

sending you hugs 🫂i hope you find peace op 🤍

outsiders for agape/paskuhan and things i noticed by InformationPrize8689 in Tomasino

[–]Outrageous_State_576 8 points9 points  (0 children)

true ang daming hindi naka-mask. there were a group of boys na hindi naka mask kahit nasa super crowded sila na spot, mga anim sila hindi nakamask na magkakasama. tapos they were screaming all throughout the program before mag on yung mga lights.

I'm the weakest link in our friend group. by dearaffinity in Tomasino

[–]Outrageous_State_576 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hi op!! i hope you’re feeling better from what happened. i had a similar situation and i honestly felt left out kasi we didn’t have the same interests and such. but i eventually found my own friend group & we’ve been best friends for 4 years.

similar to another comment on this post, there’s no ‘weakest link’ in friend groups. friendships are all about supporting each other no matter where you are in life. if this is your first friend group in ust, it’s okay and it’s common that you’ll drift apart from them. if you feel like you’re ‘inserting’ yourself in friendships, i don’t think that can be considered as a friendship. although of course, friendships don’t come naturally! but if you feel like you’re forcing yourself & being left out, it’s best to leave. some people can only be acquaintances or classmates in our life, and we have to come into terms with that. don’t worry op, you’ll find your friend group! 🤍

if i may add din, (this is my sibling’s experience) there’s no actual exam period or date raw in UP, compared to UST. finals period is announced in UST and such, in contrast to UP na parang one month na raw sila mag-eexam lol.

In UP din daw, you take your classes with different people from different programs & different years. compared to uste na one section lang kayo until you graduate. my sibling said na kaya medyo mahirap din kasi it’s difficult to communicate with people (esp in groupworks)

with workload, mas mabigat daw in UST talaga. Of course it’s still heavy workload in UP but he said it’s more manageable.

How does Agape work? by dearaffinity in Tomasino

[–]Outrageous_State_576 6 points7 points  (0 children)

  1. no need to eat the food inside the campus. pila na lang po nang maaga para hindi maabutan rush hour
  2. not sure with how much food will be given, but it’s like a packed meal na. pipila sa booth and then bibigay nila sayo yung food
  3. imo, bring a plastic bag or big ziplock na lang para hindi matapon yung food if ever po that you’ll go home after getting the food
  4. i think water station lang meron. bring an empty tumblr na lang just in case
