yesterday, i was going to a food tasting activity in quezon city (remember, i am helping my friends prepare for their wedding....i was supposed to meet them in philcoa but something happened to their car so i decided to just meet them inside the up campus.....i didn't know that it was upcat day that day.....i was surprised by how bad traffic was just because it theres upcat.....i graduated some 10 years ago but i can still recall that traffic wasn't as bad then......it took us around 20 minutes from philcoa to reach admin and another 25 minutes from admin to vinson's hall....as we were passing through the oval, i realized that there were so many cars picking up examinees.......back then there were fewer cars.......does this mean that the composition of examinees have changed already?......are there more relatively 'rich' 4th year high school students taking their chance of getting the best education in the country?........im not saying, in absolute terms, that students in cars are richer than those riding in jeepneys.....i can only assume....but the chance that they are living a more 'comfortable life (at least financially) is high......i was hoping that up will give more chances to bright students who are not well off.....i'm not saying that rich kids should not be given that chance of studying in up......if they really deserve it, then sige....anyway its not their fault that they were born rich....sana lang, there will be more chances for students who are in need.....di ba that would be nice.....they will have the opportunity to learn more and become the best in their chosen profession.......para they can have better chances of earning more in the future.....
hay....why am i saying this......maybe i was just irritated yesterday for having to sit in a jeepney while those kids are sitting comfortably in their air conditioned cars....hya selfish pala hahaha joke
