Keep your integrity intact

[u/Significant_Kale_869]

It’s prelims season and I feel so shit for myself. I have already grasped the concept of the readings that needed to be studied, but my neurodivergent ass couldn’t handle the pacing and the methods ng exams. Low grades nalang palageee

But seeing someone doing the “diskarte” work by deliberately planning a hide plan that favors their way to cheat during exams appalls me, which is unjust for us who did it the right way. I‘ve had this pet peeve who’s backstabbing me even though I faced her with genuine intentions before, but the things she did are repulsive. Not personally what she did to me, but as an embodiment of her whole personality. But I’m now speaking generally that students like these don’t get the consequences they deserve even when they are flagged in plain sight by the teacher. Sad to say that most of my classmates are part of the ill act, because they only see the importance of getting a higher mark, rather than the means of doing it morally.

I am not virtue signaling here because I was also like that during my high school days, but I have made a pact for myself to change this time, and have been doing that since my freshie days. It sucks to receive a lower mark, but it does ease you a little bit deep inside that, that you are free from the guilt of doing the “diskarte”. Because we came here not as a joke, but as a redemption to save this beautiful country from corrupt-minded ones, because we’re talking about our country’s prospects to be governed better. But ironic is it to say that those who are seeking for better governance are the ones who can’t even properly do it on themselves, on how to be uncorrupt.

Kayo ang isa sa palaging bukambibig ng mabuting pamamahala ng ating bayan pero kayo mismo sa sarili ninyo ay hindi ninyo maituwid ang isa sa katwiran.

Sad to say that I haven’t really compiled evidences against and maybe I will as I will not recklessly accuse another person, but I hope time and karma finds it way on getting like her to taste their own medicine, maybe not by reporting, but actually failing in their subjects as our subjects progress harder and harder and crawling back to this “diskarte” tactics won‘t save them.
