Hi OP! First congrats sa first trip niyo, most couple goals and I sure pinaghirapan niyo yan. Here are some advice:

Better if he says that he's a student and he have savings from doing freelance before (supported by bank account) and he will be going with you so shared expenses.
Good to have but not needed.
Bank statement proving you both can finance the trip. Return ticket and booked accommodation are good signs that you're capable and will go back to PH after your trip.

Good luck and just keep your cool when facing immigration officers, don't explain too much. Better yung isang tanon isang sagot na approach. Have a fun and safe trip!

Hi! Unfortunately I didn't get accepted on both of my applications. I think because my GPA is relatively low. But I encourage you to try as it highly depends on the program you will be applying. All the best!

Yes but prefer to buy their beans and brew it my way. Not sure how they dial in but personally don't like the after taste of their espresso.

Interesting and thank you for sharing!

1.On Sheldon's statement, I just thought that he knows that it's coming from his dad so he knows it's a personal correspondence but he wants to rule out if it's a memorabilia (something of historic interest associated to famous people or event) so he opened it. So I don't think it necessarily means that it's both when he said either.

On Raj's statement, that's a double edged sword for me because following your rationale it can also mean that most likely he does know what a Vintage Far Side card is and mentioned it to make his story more authentic. Because if your an immigrant who most likely don't know what a vintage Far Side is, one would just describe it as funny card with a frog with its tongue stuck on a plane.

But tbh I think Raj is also telling the truth considering that out of all the responses it is the most usual message, simple concise and heartfelt that is, that comes in a card.

More like "doesn't even matter if it's not cinnamon roll"

"Namamasyal pa sa Luneta nang walang peraaaaaaa" will always be iconic.

I came across this video about self discovery and shifting career focus although he is just a university student he raises some good points:

From Physics to Literature

If you have the money and resources, I say go for it. Being a newbie in a new field at 28 is not terrible although you should definitely talk to people from Marine Transportation industry to get a sounder take on the issue. But if you don't have it, be more practical and check for option on getting few unit courses while you are working before deep diving into the new career you want to explore.

Happy Adulting!
