hindi astig... by elfili Thursday, October 28, 2004 @ 12:29:37 AM pisay, tres lang? nakakahiya. kung ako, mega-iyak siguro ako habang lumalakad na nakaluhod sa UP chapel (habang nagsisisi). well, isa ka sa mga biktima ng superiority complex. marami rin kasi akong mga naging ka-batch na pisay grads na kesyo na-take na raw nila advance trigo/algebra noong senior year nila ay winalang-bahala ang math 17. ayun, marami sa kanila ang nangamote. meron pa ngang nasisipa sa eng eh dahil hindi mapasa-pasa math 17 na pre req sa maraming series. anyway, may this serve a lesson na hindi pedeng basta-basta lang approach mo sa mga subjects mo lest you end up one of the many mediocre UP grads... ang mga UP subjects, dapat talaga pinagpupuyatan, unless alam mo sa simula pa lang na isa kang henyo.

(at oo yung iba dun dahil sa hindi pag-exert ng effort) inggrata ba ko kahit na hindi ako nagm17 at may 3 uno? now you see THAT fine line between arrogance and acknowledging my achievements. wag nyo ngang isisi sa min ang mga insecurities/disappointments nyo.

whapak by amazing_pinoy Saturday, October 30, 2004 @ 04:33:35 AM mabuti at natuto ka sa tres mo sa math 17. mabuti rin at hindi ka na nag-drama at nag-iiyak pa. hindi na natin kailangan yon kung talagang natuto na tayo. sa mga taong nagsasabing [i]mahiya ka naman[/i], mas maraming lungkot ang nagagawa dahil sa sobrang hiya.

Re: by Maiah Saturday, October 30, 2004 @ 05:09:06 AM I was never good with Math, pero 1.75 ako sa Math 17.

Wag mo lang ako tatanungin kung may natatandaan pa ako ngayon. I remember the prof...but not the lesson anymore ! :-)

Hindi mo naman siguro intensyon, pero kasi, pero bago ka sana gumawa ng article - at ipost - tingnan mo muna kung ano yung dating. Kasi sa iba, ang angas ng dating pre. Pinagmayabang mo pa talaga na pisay ka, math contestant ka, hindi ka pumapasok, at pinasa mo pa rin. Alam mo bang maraming bumabagsak kahit nagaaral dyan? Pre, siguro (sana) hindi mo naman intensyon magyabang, pero konting lalim naman.

Re: my math 17 experience! by livingston Sunday, October 31, 2004 @ 09:14:42 AM share ko lang! pero kakaiba tlga math 17 lalo na dito sa LB. kakaiba ung prof namin! ewan ko kng kilala nyo sya pero weird sya magdamit... hehehe! (clue yan). anyway, imbis na i-encourage nya kame eh kabaliktaran ang gingawa nya. in fairness, magaling nmn siya magturo pero mas gusto nya kame mag-drop kesa sa magbigay sya ng singko. pinakahindi ko malilimutan ay ung umaga before ng 2nd departmental exam namin. tapos ni-remind nya kme to bring our ID. ang sagot namin eh, "ma'am wala pa ID namin, pede form 5 nlang?" sabay sagot ni prof na... "huh! ano? wala pa kayong ID? wala man lang kayong remembrance sa UP bago kayo masipa? kawawa naman kayo." DAHIL SA MATH17.... mahirap! pero masaya! at proud ka pag nalusutan mo ito kahit tres lng dahil alam mo na hindi ka galing sa isang magaling na paaralan....

Do I Smell COFFEE? by kurt Sunday, October 31, 2004 @ 02:48:15 PM Parang ang bitter kasi ng atmosphere eh. Ung iba kasi may stereotype na agad ng mga taga-Pisay. Biter-biteran baga. Kaya pag naka-meet ng Pisay na nahihirapan sa klase, parang "beh,butinga! bumagsak ka! ang yabang mo kasi! mas magaling ako sayo!" Schaudenfraude to the highest levels. Granted na may mga mayabang ngang taga-pisay. Pero Im so sure na meron din namang taga Dusay or Ateneo or Arellano High or Tralala High school na mayabang. Modesty aside, mas marami lang talagang Pisay/science high school grads na nakakapasok sa UP kaya mas pansin kami. Mas diverse kami kesa dun sa 10 or so honor students na pumapasok from the usual private/public high school. At mas sigurado akong hindi LAHAT ng taga-Pisay mayabang. Madaming pisay na hindi nag-eexcel sa acads dahil hindi naman nila ginusto ung pinasok nila (either nung high school pa or college). Like everyone else, we can also be pressured by our parents to take courses/career paths that are not to our liking. Madami ring na-burn out nung high school. Maaring tinamad din. Pero ulit, di lang naman taga-Pisay ang tinatamad. Tignan niyo na lang yang mga tambay sa kanto, I'm sure, di naman graduates ng Pisay/science high yan ano? Maaring di pa ito sapat na rason para mag-slack off, but that's where individual experiences come in to play. Di ako nayabangan sa author, and as she stated, babawi na naman na siya sa susunod. At least she gets a point for being honest and not being self-righteous and pompous. And believe me when I say that most people who study very hard don't even have the "masses" in mind. Rather, they do it for "selfish" reasons like getting good grades to have a nice job, to get scholarships here and abroad, to win awards, to get papers published etc. Sure, you may say that in the end, people will also benefit from their achievements, but my point is that they did not really do it with the "people" on top of their lists kaya mejo bawas-bawasan naman sana ninyo ang pagmamaganda. As I've stated before, there's more than one way to serve the people. And I think the best way to start is to not go around stating "I AM SERVING THE PEOPLE". Too much self-righteousness makes for a lot of politicians and bitterness, and when that happens, no one, except the self-righteous people themselves, get served in the end. Switch to tea. It's less bitter. And it's healthier too =)

Re: sayang naman by stella17 Sunday, October 31, 2004 @ 07:58:44 PM nung first sem ko kala ko ren magagawa ko yung ginagawa ko nung high school na nakakakuha ng mataas kahit hindi mashadong nag-aaral. but no, iba pala sa college, hindi pala pwedeng ganun. kaya naman gwa ko nung first sem lampas dos! at puro GE lang ako nun ah! nakakahiya...at tres din ako sa math 17. pero ayos lang kase hindi naman nga ako nag-aaral nun at hindi ako magaling sa math ever since. kaya lang sayang nga dahil mukha namang magaling ka sa math. pero kanya-kanyang phase lang naman yan sa buhay. at mukha namang hindi ka nagsisisi. keri lang yan. bawi na lang next sem. :)

ok lang yun by an_kristin Monday, November 01, 2004 @ 12:00:28 AM ok lang yun! ako din e...since nasa tyan pa lang ako ng nanay ko, nagsosolve na ako ng mga angle of elevation at problems involving pythagorean theorem, at nung gs, e mula grade1 hanggang grade6 ay kasali ako sa math olympiad, umaabot pa ako ng national level, at nung hs ay mas mataas pa ang ave grade ko kesa sa valedictorian namin, pero pagdating kong peyups, hala, dropped sa first take at 2.0 lang ang 2nd take. una sinisi ko ang prof. e kasi naman, kasisi-sisi naman talaga e..kausapin ba naman kasi ang blackboard hindi ang estudyante. pero nung pangalawa, wala na akong sinisi kundi sarili. alam ko naman sa simula palang, kasalanan ko na. dahil katulad mo, sa loob ng isang semestre, kulang na lang ay sa bahay ako nagkaklase, pero ayun, ayos lang. tanggap ko na hindi ako anak ni archimedes o ni descartes, o kung sino mang henyo sa matematika. simpleng tao lang tayo. may pagkakataong nagkakamali. sana lang ay matutunan natin kung paano bumangon sa pagkakamaling yon

Re: by Handyfemme Monday, November 01, 2004 @ 02:04:06 AM Ang tingin ko sa article na 'to, kinuwento niya yung nangyari sa kanya. True, masama dahil hindi siya pumasok, pero freshie palang naman siya. Doon sa dulo ng article niya pinakita naman niyang nagsisi naman siya, so there's no biggie. Gusto ko yung sinabi ni <b>kurt</b> about 'serving the masses'. Well,oo nga at nakakahiya dahil kung tatamarin tayo eh inaaksaya natin ang pera ng bayan PERO kung tutuusin, hindi ba dapat mas mahiya muna tayo sa ating mga sarili? Wala lang, paano natin matutulungan ang kapwa natin kung ang sarili natin eh hindi natin madisiplina? Agree din ako sa sinabi ni ate <b>caravaggio</b> -- sarcastic ang approach nitong article na ito. Alam naman nung bata na mali siya, nagsa-sourgraping siya. So anong problema doon? Naipasa niya yung course, she learned her lesson, hindi na niya uulitin iyon. KAPAG GINAWA PA NIYA, saka kayo magalit. Doon naman sa comment ni <b>martin_blank</b>, natural lang na may mga taong maasar sa article na ito kasi iba-iba naman ang takbo ng pag-iisip natin, di ba? Jindi naman puwedeng puro magaganda lang ang sasabihin ng mga readers ng peyups sa sinulat ni <b>kajjabeez</b>. Hindi naman niya aim siguro ang iplease ang lahat ng tao di ba? :)

Re: by qwerty Monday, November 01, 2004 @ 05:51:33 AM Hindi ko siya kinategoryang 'astig', kasi para sa akin yung astig para lang sa mga admirable at impressive na ginawa ng tao, e yung nangyari sa iyo hindi naman admirable at impressive. Puwede mong sabihin na masaya ka kaya nasabi mong yung astig, pero sa tingin ko ito ang dapat mong sinabi :hahaha: Tres ako sa Math17. It's a miracle!

Re: by imquitestupid Monday, November 01, 2004 @ 09:14:06 AM well, andaming comments na nakakatakot dito.. natatakot tuloy akong magcomment. sakin, medyo hindi naging mayabang ang dating. kasi, parang iba yung pakahulugan nung author sa "astig". parang hindi niya ipinagmamayabang na tres siya sa math 17, parang.. parang.. (may isang anghel). wala lang, siguro mali din ako. :peace: po sa lahat!

Re: by chrimpph Monday, November 01, 2004 @ 12:58:35 PM tres din ako sa Math 17. Proud ako na nanghihinayang. Baket? Nanghihinayang ako kasi hindi ko siya kinarir pero proud dahil na-tres ko siya. kaya gets ko ang "astig" na hirit ni kajjabez. ;)

sikat ka!! by sober_silver Tuesday, November 02, 2004 @ 12:05:42 PM o di ba ang saya... sensational ang article mo? e pano ba nman, ang pang bungad mo: e pisay grad ka - tapos 3.0 sa math 17. teka sounds familiar... ako ren e! kakaiba talaga ang feeling when it happened. i don't want to think that i was overconfident. though, i read in one of the posts that some did get tired of 'burning the oil'. totoo un. matindi talaga ang pinagdaanan nten sa pisay. lighten up, hija. the race is not yet over. :)

Re: by horned_01 Tuesday, November 02, 2004 @ 10:03:55 PM up until now, i still do not know what does "astig" exactly mean. astig=cool? if that was your definition, then i think di astig ung ginawa mo.

Re: Tunay na Astig... by Louisian Wednesday, November 03, 2004 @ 05:12:22 PM ka kajjabeez, hindi dahil sa mga ilang bagay na ginawa mo (tulad ng di pagpasok sa klase porke't walang ganang magturo ang prof.), kundi dahil sa pag share mo nito sa amin. Ilan ba sa atin ang maglalakas ng loob na magkwento ng tungkol sa buhay nila na medyo kahiya-hiya (mga temang we're not proud of). O kaya, magkweto ng pangyayari sa atin na pagnalaman ng iba (lalo na yung di natin kakilala) ay malamang husgahan agad tayo. Siguro ilan lang silang tulad ni kajjabeez, hehe. Oo nga at maraming pagkakamaling ginawa ang may akda sa kwento nya pero sino ba sa atin ang perfect, mayroon ba? Pinapakita nya na tayong lahat capable of committing mistakes kahit na anong talino mo pa! At isa pa, di ba nagsisisi naman sya in the end..that's humility. May kasabihan nga na "It is difficult to be humble. Even if you aim at humility, there is no guarantee that when you have attained the state you will not be proud of the feat." I hope we all learned from this story esp you kajjabeez hehe. Pagbutihan next sem ha :D

basehan ng pagka-astig o henyo? by jason168 Thursday, November 04, 2004 @ 09:43:05 PM sometimes, hindi naman talaga correlated ang intelligence sa mathematical ability. may mga matatalino na bobo sa math... pero usually, pag matalino (as in high IQ), magaling din sa math. anyway, medyo walang katuturan na yata to'ng comment ko. meron lang akong i-introduce sa inyo na medyo magpapagana sa mga utak na medyo kinakalawang na... try ninyo ito: http://www.borrett.wattle.id.au/computing/petals.htm PS. gaya ng kagalingan sa math, hindi rin ito basehan ng pagiging henyo o astig, pero mas intersting ito kesa math 17

Tres? by kinetikamote Friday, November 05, 2004 @ 08:59:02 AM Tres does not define how good you are in math. Tres only tells you na tamad ka lang. Un lang. And yes, you need math for chemistry, because chemistry is a whole lot of math. I don't know nga lang for zoo. :)

Re: Pisay grad din ako. Pero magmula nung highschool, hirap na ako sa Math. Hindi lahat ng Pisay perperkto. Ang hirap naman kasing ipakita yun sa ibang tao... Pero hindi naman lahat ng Pisay grads ay henyo. May ibang nagsipag lang talaga at kinaya. In your case, siguro naging complacent ka ng konti. Bakit? Kasi dati kang nag-excel sa Math.

Kumento by pseudomori Thursday, November 25, 2004 @ 05:00:07 PM 'Di ko parin lubos maisip na binasa ko lahat ng mga kumento dito na halos kalahati naman ay sadyang pang-atake lamang sa kung anumang inaatake nila. One, galing din ako sa Pisay. The hell with stereotypes... Don't expect us to do shit para lang magkaroon ng flat one sa grade. I mean, it's always the case. It doesn't necessarily mean that we have to have an average grade of 1.25 or higher. It's bullshit! Two, freshman din ako tulad ng nagsulat ng artik na ito. ive us a chance, man. I mean, we're in one hell of an adjustment phase. We have not completely recovered from whatever pressures we might have incurred in HS. College is a whole new experience for us so crap it up! Three, ako rin may bagsak. Hindi ibig sabihin nun na wala na akong sense of gratitude sa kung sinumang nagpa-aral sa akin. It's just that i failed to try my best OR if i ever did, it wasn't just good enough. I mean, i did graduate in due time (in HS, i mean), right? That's all there is to it. Grades aren't everything... It's more reflective of our memorizing skills, of our creativity skills, and shit like that. It is NOT reflective of our capabilities as a Filipino, much more as a human being. Plus, who cares about pasang-awa grades? For the least, we passed. And, it's not going to affect any shit we can do for our country. You don't go around screaming "i had a 1.25 grade in Math17, so surrender the friggin hostage" to a terrorist. You don't go around yelling "we shoul propose this bill becuase it's for the good of the country, and we should veto the other one because it's bad. I should know. I got a 1.00 in Math17 back when i was a freshman." You don't go to charity (or any socially-oriented orgs) running around clucking "i got a 1.25 in Math17 and i'm going to eliminate poverty!" --- To kajjabeez, it ain't your fault, man. Let 'em rant above your obligations to the taxpayers and all of that... Go on with your life. I trust that you'll be able to pay the Filipino people -- your benefactors -- in your own way. (And, not just through Math17!);)

Re: just a few stray thoughts by lorddael Monday, December 13, 2004 @ 03:38:39 AM ... but before I begin, let me just say that I'm already heading towards the last and final round of my academics, i.e. PhD, so this "heated" discussion on the math 17 3.0 grade actually made me smile as I remembered my own math foibles... ...And with that opening, I hope (at least) to get a semblance of respect for my opinions, hahaha =) 1) First of all, me and colleagues here agreed to have observed an interesting phenomena prevalent in a significant majority: people seem to glorify more one who can "work his way around" the system, find loopholes in agreements, or one who can generally muck things up. They elevate him to such a high status over those who, with their own abilities is able to do something really useful and noble. In fact, often it becomes a seed for bragging, ex "Hey, guess what, I fooled _____ into _____ ", and the like. Not that I question your motives for writing your article, I thought yours is a variation of this observable fact. 2) Responsibility. To the author's credit, perhaps nobody was there to explain to him the burden of studying on taxpayer's money. it's perfectly understandable. at that age, we couldn't care less or worry about too much. After all, we get enough talk on tuition fees and responsibility from our parents. In fact because our parents does much of the worrying for us, we are left to worry about things closer to our own sentiments. Perhaps, only upon entering UP people realize that we are actually subsidized. For the record: I believe that students should be responsible and must do every conceivable action to ensure a passing grade. There is nothing more difficult in coping with responsibility than being tied to some form of expectations, from yourself, your parents, your peers, and the Filipino taxpayers. Your obligation to yourself and your parents, I won't expound on it since it is assumed that you should know it even before enrolling in UP. Expectations from the taxpayers? I think they just expect you to pass. (I can say this because for the past 8 years I've been contributing my share in UP's student subsidy). Anything else above the passing grade is a bonus to the people. Fooling around is ok as long as you pass. It's when you fail after fooling around that screws everything. Like a person who makes a bad investment, we feel frustration. Before anyone says: Well, who asked you to invest in me? who asked you to expect much from me? Let me say this: I believe in the spirit of education and how it is the best possible gift we could give to our people. Education makes a lot of things possible. I decided to become a taxpayer because I believe that UP can offer the best education possible and every student who passes the UPCAT represents a twinkle of hope for our country. A student who fails for the most ridiculous reason simply isn't doing enough to help the country. Let's admit it: We, the Filipino people need YOU. Just do your part because no matter what happens, the Filipino people will not stop in making sure you get subsidy. Such has been the dream of this country... Of course, you're free to do it your way, that still doesn't change the fact the country is behind you, 100%. You may pass or fail but let's hope nobody gets kicked out that they never get another shot at it again. so, good luck to you! 3) On being Pisay and other related stuff. Same as above: the country believes in your capabilities. but really, it doesn't matter where you're from. If you ask me, I'm not from pisay but I've seen good people to come from your lot and surprisingly found others who are also able to match Pisay in every way. so what's the point? I hope that coming out of pisay exposed you to the wonderful world of the sciences enough to make you consider helping advance it in our unscientific country. case in point: sometimes we get scientific opiniion from the most unscientific people. obviously not only do they tend to be vague, often they are ILLOGICAL AND WRONG. consider your Read the rest of this comment...
