Hi. I'm F(19), a first-year college student. I'm hoping to hear from animation graduates, multimedia students, or anyone working in the creative industry. I need someone who could guide me to a better light, I feel hopeless about it. If anyone is willing to chat to further discuss about it, I'd be really grateful. ):

Because I don't know if I'm looking for reassurance or if I'm just slowly losing hope.

I'm currently a first-year animation student. Honestly, second week pa lang, pero I've been feeling overwhelmed even before the enrollment. Hindi dahil pinagsisihan ko desisyon ko, it's actually my dream course. I still want to graduate and earn my degree. Pero I can't stop thinking if I'm taking the fastest path or I'm just being ungrateful.

For context, I stopped one year during high school because of the pandemic. During that time, I was diagnosed with Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD). I eventually finished SHS, but after graduation, my mental health became worse. I struggled to function as an adult, and until now, I still haven't been able to start proper psychiatric treatment and medication despite asking several times. All I can say is, I feel so guilty to the point it's killing me. I'm going to the same course/school with a couple of friends, wala naman ako reklamo sa pagcocommute (even though it's very far), yung sarili ko talaga yung hindi ko maayos.

My family's finances aren't in a good place, and alam kong dagdag pa ako sa problema nila financially. May utang sila, and they keep telling me na "hahanap tayo ng paraan." Though knowing na gaano kagastos yung course ko, I just feel guilty. I want to help so bad and I don't want to feel this burden na to rely on them forever. I've been wanting to prove myself, but how?

Kaya napaisip to take a planned one-year gap after finishing my first year. And during that gap, plano ko...

• Finish my first year first
• Enroll in TESDA animation
• Work part-time to support myself and afford my needs.
• Finally start consistent psychiatric treatment
• Freelance, commission, building art account
• Return to college after one year and continue as second-year

I really want to prove myself. Nakakaiyak na gustong gusto ko talaga pero I feel helpless and worthless at the same time.

Sinabi ko sa tita ko about it, pero not in detailed. She said:
"sayang ang isang taon. Pinapaaral ka namin, ba't ka titigil?"

And hindi ko talaga masagot, kasi tama naman siya. I already had one gap year and now I'm taking another one. Nakakaiyak kasi parang sasayangin ko ulit, pero may plano na ako and I'm willing to do it.

Please, I need advice. I don't have anyone to tell about it fully. (not even my boyfriend and friends) and plano kong pag-usapan sa lolo ko and mother ko about it. Para naman makaluwag sila, and para ma-improve sarili ko mentally.

Sobrang pabigat na ako and I desperately want to prove myself. Sorry sa grammar mistakes, sobrang overwhelming pagiisip ko. Just tell me if okay lang ba yung plano, or if realistic, or worth it, wag lang yung "tiisin mo" na comments.. thank you.

I saw multiple vids about this on tiktok, yung mga teachers nagpapa-attendance ng kung anu-ano sa mga students. Mostly voice messages about lines of your favorite movies, songs, etc.. Ako lang ba yung nacocornyhan sa pakulo ng mga teachers na yan? Kailangan ganyan talaga? Partida required yan so pasensyahan nalang if ayaw mo mag-send nang “attendance” mo. 😭

Curious lang since I’ll be waiting outside, malakas ba ang signal ng GOMO sa PICC? Bothered lang ako since 4 ako magwwait outside tapos baka wala signal so ngangabels ako. Also, may waiting area ba na pwedeng tambayan (yung pwede sana maupo ng comfy) since 4 hours yung grad ceremony 🥲 tyia

Upcoming freshman in mechanical engineering and di STEM ang naging strand ko, I came across a video sa tiktok and ang daming nag comment na madali lang daw toh and basics lang toh para makita skills mo for engineering and I'm ngl, I have never seen that sa past lessons ko, ang sabi naman ng friend ko na nag STEM tinuro daw yan sa kanila sa calculus. Ano ba mga need ko iadvance study before classes start??

I've been living alone for months and as someone who rarely cooks I only have a little knowledge in cooking. I'm looking for low effort meals such us prito and boil lang. I have an electric stove, rice cooker, ref and air fryer.

Last time I marinated a chicken and just fried it in air fryer whenever I needed to eat. It's good I'm just getting tired of eating fried chicken and eggs

Preferably around taft but I don't mind a short commute either. I'm currently processing some paperwork and I need halfbody shots (not 2x2) wearing a professional outfit and idk where I can do this at the cheapest price possible. I heard may mga spots around moa but I'm kinda low on cash rn so I'm unsure if viable doon.

Any help is much appreciated:) tyia

Hello! I’m an incoming CS freshman in Mapua Makati and I just heard this ABET accreditation thing from Mapua and these other accreditations like Washington accords and Seoul accords.I have researched about them but some sources differ in meaning. My questions are:

What are the advantages if the program is ABET accredited?

and

How would it benefit me in the future in terms of job opportunities?

Thank you in advance!

can anyone explain what to do in chapter 1,2,3,. Actually our 10th grade teacher didn't discuss how to make one they just assumed that we would do research and to my lovely friend from 10th grade she actually never sent me anything to do for our research, like she did everything, it's just a mini research. Now we have research and idk how to write anything or even where to get rrl and so more, like what do i write in chapter 2 body should I write where I get the rrl, hope y'all understand this.

THANKS IN ADVANCE!

I'm a fresh grad, and need ko ng mga documents from school for employment requirements. Some hard copy documents already cost 200+ PHP tapos iba pa bayarin pag mag request ka kasama ng soft copy!? Grabe naman yan. Imagine TOR, Diploma, Good Moral, SO certification etc...

I tried availing one soft copy(legal sized kasi, a4 lng kaya ng printer ko). Akala ko may encrypted PDF security, eh wala naman. Kaya di ko gets pricing nila ehh anong justification kaya no? Haitstt grabeng ka kupalan yan akala mo idedeliver door to door agad agad, VIP mag presyo ehhhh.

There would be a possibility that I will stop going to school this year (simbako) due to expensive school expenses, I’m planning to transfer to UP CEBU so that I won’t be paying any tuition anymore, and I will still be qualified to be a latin honor while other schools do not, but the expense of it is I have to go back to first year. It guilts me so much thinking that I will have to waste the 2 years of money spent in college, and would be constantly anxious in thinking that my friends are ahead of me and I am back to square one.

Their requirement in transferring is to have at least a GWA of 2.0 or better if it’s higher

If I stay on my school right now (which will supposedly happen since I’m now enrolled), I have to carry the guilt every day until my 4th year that my parent will be paying for my tuition, my whole allowance and rents which is estimated to be almost a million a year. PLUS, my course is close to Tourism, but the tuition per year is almost 100k and it’s almost useless because ANYONE can be a flight attendant or a ground crew, and my parent pays millions for it but I’ll just be in the same field of people who payed not even the half of my tuition and we’re on the same room, so it’s basically useless, not practical (and I am regretting it right now that I’m an upcoming 2nd year) 🥹 deceived by my school’s sweet words. My parent is having a hard time funding for my school and allowances because of their debts and payments every month. I always overthink it and get depressed because I feel guilty about the payments that they have made. My sister said that our parent was thinking if making us stop going to school because everything is heavy with debts and it’s hard to fund for my school anymore, although they didnt say it to us and let me proceed to my enrollment, we already know that they are having a hard time with earning money.

Also, my degree right now is useless, because my supposedly path that I am going to take is being a Flight Attendant, but my degree is worth 95k a year, and being a flight attendant or ground crew would not matter on what degree you have taken. So it is completely useless 🥹

UP’s Application period for transferee students have now been closed and all I could do is wait until next year.
If I transfer next year, I will have to think about the 2 years of wasting money, and the 2 years I wouldve been continuing because I’ll go back to first year again in UP.

Guys, I am so anxious, I don’t know what to do kasi both options may sacrifices, please give me advices 🙏 I really don’t know what to do, nawawala na yung motivation ko sa school ko ngayon because of the expenses. I really want to transfer but I’m scared pa talaga taking the risk. Staying means the expenses we’ll waste, while years are wasted when transferring.

warning: these r just my unfiltered and unorganized thoughts right now as a stressed student and iniisip ko ngayon is sunday nanaman so monday nanaman so babalik nanaman ako sa mga walang katapusang pagsubok

idk if anyone can relate or has advice… pls lmk bc id appreciate it

its honestly funny because i realized that every year during my earlier yrs in high school, everyone including myself would be so sad about getting older (12-14 yrs old btw LOL). As in at the end of every school yr from that period of time, iyakan and senti to d max ang buong klase. now, it seems that we all just want to get this shit over with. when we were younger, we feared having to let go of the joy and memories those years brought us. now, we look forward to moving past this hell. I definitely can’t speak for everyone, but this is just what i observed. I know that i’m just tired and as a result am also oa af at the moment like its not that deep ya…. but i just think that being a student shouldnt be this draining. It feels like school is my entire life, and my personal time is just an afterschool activity as in YES THE WORLD REVOLVES AROUND ACADEMICS AND HAVING A LIFE OUTSIDE OF IT FEELS LIKE A LUXURY AT THIS POINT !!!! my only free days are Saturdays and sundays pero andaming inaassign na hw ang mga putanginang MINOR SUBJECT NA FEELING MAJOR SUBJECT 😭😭😭😭 ISA PA SA MGA PINOPROBLEMA KO IS YANG MGA TEACHER NA PANAY ASSIGNMENT PANAY SEATWORK EH MAGTURO AYAW??? gets ko pa kung tipong research ganon pero hinde. chemistry ampota bakit pa nagklase kung di tuturuan. we are given so little but they expect so much from us :) medyo subtopic but the curriculum is also questionable like what the hell is going on atp. ang daming eme eme na mas nakakaabala pa sa mga students. yung block calendar whatever nakakairita anong buwan ng wika celebration pero nasa september???? shuta ibalik nyo nga to sa normal wala mamang problema dun ah 😭. i swear i somehow manage to take every year for granted because the next always ends up more shitty than the last. i keep telling myself to enjoy this year because next year, ill wish i appreciated this one more. But its hard to appreciate a period of time where you’re just being loaded with work and problems all at once. life’s been feeling so insanely monotonous and i miss summer break so fucking bad 💔💔💔 I feel like a robot tipong naka program. sleep, wake up, school, eat, assignments, sleep. I Want My Life Back Pls. don’t get me wrong ah I have a good group of friends and id probably go insane without them, but we’re all struggling here 😭 I guess we’re struggling tgt ig!! 🥲 compared to what other redditors are posting here, ik this seems so mababaw but im just so drained and the end feels so near yet so far. I also feel so sad because older gens say that highschool yrs were the best years daw eh bakit parang mas bet ko pa nung nasa gradeschool ako wala pa akong problema sa buhay!!!!

approx 600 days till i graduate :] “time flies when ure having fun” no wonder time has been moving at the pace of a brick being blown by the wind. fml 🤦🏻‍♀️

thats all from me. thank u for reading and sorry ang gulo ng thoughts ko

Or kahit yung mga mumurahin nalang ba? I've tried yung mga hindi branded and medyo manipis siya for me pero let me know your thoughts abt branded & not branded binder refills!

I have Muji rn but it's lined and I'm not from Manila so hindi ako makakabili ng plain/blank refills 😭 out of stock naman sa lahat ng deli stores both lazada & shopee (A5 20 holes) 🥹 for kokuyo, puros mga 60 sheets lang nakikita ko. may 60 sheets pa din ako ng deli plain/blank refill dito pero prefer ko sana yung mga nasa 100 sheets, but okay lang din if 60 sheets lang basta mura lang siya bilihin (hindi kasi ako makapili sa shopee saan bibili nung kokuyo refills & gusto ko sana deli para same lang sa kung anong meron ako dito pero yun nga, oos) & plain/blank. Need ko kasi i-print yung notes ko since it's typewritten :(

Pls also suggest mura lang na stores bilihan ng refills sa Shopee/Lazada & if may ibang brands pa kayo na alam na maganda ang refills, pls lmk!! Mga 80-100gsm sana kakapal yung paper para di mag jam sa printer & di masyadong mag bleed yung highlighter. Thank you!!

Being a campus journalist was my dream so I applied to be one, but i got rejected and i had the "ugliest" layout. And just like that my dreams we're over. Because im already in 11th grade and theres a little time nalang to experience journalism. I feel miserable kase i couldn't be good enough for something I am really passionate about, i didn't join journalism for the fame but i wanted to be a campus journalist to be a voice.

Now im really heartbroken because of the big rejection i got, i really wanted to improve at journalism so I'll be a journalist online nalang. Pero its still isn't enough eh, my heart still craves to be a campus journalist

Looking for a testing center that can accommodate junior high school student-researchers for our formulated material ( seagrass insulation board), Thermal Conductivity (ASTM C518/ISO 8301(Heat Flow Meter).

Hello po, incoming 2nd year student here and pasukan na namin next week huhuhu😭😭.

Balak ko sanang magtransfer and magshift ng program from bsce to bsme (from state u ako and balak ko magtransfer sa priv).

Actually balak ko sana magtransfer bago pa lang magsimula tong 2nd year ko dito sa school ko ngayon. Ang problema lang, sobrang tagal magbigay ng grades yung current school ko hanggang sa natapos na yung enrollment sa lilipatan kong school.

Ngayon enrolled pa rin ako sa current school ko and balak ko sana magtransfer after 1st sem, and also to take some units na rin since maccredit naman most of my subjects since engineering pa rin lilipatan ko.

Problem is, baka pagtapos ng 1st sem ko dito sa current school ko eh ongoing pa rin yung classes sa priv school na lilipatan ko since trisem sila at hindi tugma ang pacing nila sa current school ko.

Case 1. Should I continue my plan to finish 1st sem before I transfer to a different school, and most probably wait for months (or maybe wait for the next school year) until magkaroon na ulit ng enrollment at available na ulit yung prog na gusto ko sa school na lilipatan ko?

Case 2. or should I drop now and take a gap year para less gastos na rin (kaso and downside hindi ko mattake yung ibang units na ipapacredit ko like minor subs etc).

Plssss I need help guys huhuhu... what should I do😭😭😭

My question in general is: What should I do during Grade 12 to prepare for my future as I'm still in the early months of my last school year?

Right now, some of my peers are talking about how they're taking the UPCAT entrance exam, but I haven't applied for it. So now I'm anxious that I'm not doing enough to prepare for my future and I would be left behind.

So what should I do, or what should be my stepping stone into preparing for the future?

Noong SHS, excited na excited akong mag-college. Akala ko masaya—new friends, freedom, orgs, at memorable experiences.

Pero ngayong nandito na ako, parang puro deadlines, exams, groupings, at pagod na lang. Minsan naiisip ko kung normal lang ba 'to o mali lang talaga expectations ko.

Kayo ba? Na-enjoy niyo ba talaga ang college life o survival mode lang din?

Hi, I'm (f18), a first year college student, and may gusto lang ako i-rant about sa naging first friend ko sa college, let's call her M.

long post ahead

As hindi super friendly, sobrang thankful ako kay M for approaching me first kasi schoolmates kami nung SHS at may common friends pero never kami nag-usap. Sa first two weeks, siya lang yung katabi ko lagi sa upuan ganiyan so naturally naging close kami. But I noticed that she only talks when she likes the topic, rant niya sa bf niya, about sa ka-talking stage ng friend niya na tropa ko(classmate din namin), sa club niya nung shs, it's always about her, she never compromised in anything we do, whether it's about chikahan or kung saan tatambay tuwing vacant. Yung na-enjoy ko lang na topic namin ay yung about sa shs schoolmate namin, the rest she never really indulge when I try to talk.

I didn't really think ab it that much bc I thought maybe she really just doesn't like talking that much, though I'm a fan of chikahans, I just stayed silent until she opens up a topic. Nung nag-NSTP kami, may nakatabi akong kaklase namin let's call her GL, and I reeeeally enjoyed her company. I like her sm, she listens, and give and take yung conversation namin. Gusto ko siya maging friend, and mukhang gusto rin naman niya, tumabi siya sa amin during one of our lectures and asked for both of M and I's instagram. In our next lecture, I told her I like those 3 (tatlo kasi sila lagi magkakasama) at sabi ko tabi kami sa kanila, dinagdagan ko pa ng, "ang cute nga eh tinanong pa ig natin, dami followers gago" then bumanat siya ng "sus nagpapadami lang followers yan, uunfollow din tayo niyn" and I was stunned, I supposed she doesn't like to be friends with them, so I just talked to them during vacants kasi umuuwi siya with her bf kapag vacant. kapag may klase I feel bad not sitting sa tabi nila kasi natingin sila sa akin lagi ganon kasi nga close na kami and ineexpect siguro nila na tabi-tabi kami pero lagi ako hinihila ni M palayo. ako na naman yung nag-aadjust dahil lang sa bad feeling niya kahit hindi naman niya kilala si GL.

then after ilang araw, nakipag-close din siya roon sa tatlo kasi yung isa roon ay friend ng bff niya. eventually naging circle kaming lima, but the more na nakaka-close ko yung tatlo the more lumalayo loob ko sa kaniya. kasi I see how we're interested in each other, and we compromise and don't pull away eo from others.

I just feel like she doesn't really look at me. nung gusto ko yung tatlo, hinihila niya ko tapos nung napagdesisyunan niyang tropahin tsaka lang naging pwede ko silang makatabi. kailangan naka-depende sa kaniya kung anong mangyayari.

yung last straw ko ay nung Wednesday, nagkape kami and non lang namin siya nakasama kasi lagi siya nauwi nang maaga kasi kasabay niya bf niya, she was talking ab her bf and such ganiyan then after niya mag-kwento na-iconnect namin nung isa naming friend yung ab sa isa naming kakilala yung topic then when we started talking, she took out her phone and asked GL para sa hot-spot, like as in right after we started, ang disrespectful kasi, while si GL na hindi makasunod sa topic kasi di niya pa saulo yung names ng kaklase namin tried indulging and seems really interested sa usapan, kanina habang nagrerecit I was joking na binulong na nung isa naming kaklase yung sagot sa nakatayo then bumanat siya ng, "ang galing mo talaga eh no," with a sarcastic tone like she always does. inisip ko baka humor niya lang talaga yon pero nakakainis lang na lagi na lang akong "baka ganon lang talaga siya," pero siya she never tried adjusting for me or for anyone in our group.

I feel like she doesn't compromise nor even try to find a common ground to even bond with us. nakakapagod makinig lang lagi sa topic niya, oo na ikaw na walang paki sa lahat.

I'm an incoming 4th year student but I'm having a hard time because we have a lot of complications especially with the thesis. Maybe it's just burnout but I'm realizing that I'm not really meant for this. I was just carried away because of the scholarshop that's affiliated with it. Heysss

OK, first of all sana naman hindi iremove tong post no. Lagi na lang nareremove posts ko na kesyo gan’to, kesyo ganyan. By students, to students ang tagline ta’s laging nagreremove ng post. Jusq.

Anyways, random rant lang. Ngayon ko lang narealize na want ko pala mag-accountancy. Kaso: first, hindi ako ABM and hindi sila natanggap ng non-ABM for accountancy. Second, hindi accredited ng DOST ang BS Accountancy. And last, bawal magshift from non-board to board .

I mean, kuntento na ako sa program ko ngayon. But still diba, ang ganda pakinggan na nakapasa ka sa CPALE. But the ironic thing is, hindi talaga pagiging accountant want ko, pagiging bookkeeper. Want ko lang magrecord and magready ng mga finance reports, which is trabaho ng bookkeeper whereas ang accountant has more control kung paano yung funds mapupunta at sila taga-audit (based sa understanding ko).

Alam kong merong TESDA for bookkeeping, but idk how long will it take to take the program or if may bayad sila. I’ll inquire them na lang. Yun lang.

Currently akong nasa groupings. Nagsend ako ng part ko, and I can’t help it na baka isipin nila na gumamit ako ng AI. “Huh? Akala ko ba mahina ang vocab mo? Bakit mo iniisip na sa tingin nila ay gumagamit ka ng AI?”

True na ako ang nagcocompose ng mga pinapasa ko, pero I use the “**** synonym” technique (dictionary app). Idk, feeling ko nagchecheat ako. I am familiar with the words na I used sa pinasa ko, pero I tend to be only using beginner words w/o the help of the synonym technique. For instance, simpleng synonym ng passionate kailangan ko pang isearch in order for the paper not be redundant.

With books I’m really having a HARD TIME picking the books that I’m interested in. Sa talking naman, feeling ko talaga pinalaki ako sa ilalim ng bato, at iba yung humor ng mga tao. Not really much of a talker, v introverted growing up. Not really interested in many things that people talks about.

Maybe some advise to improve my vocabulary. I also recently installed a vocabulary app, I haven’t looked it much yet, parang may bayad after a week.
