University of the Philippines is one of the best and most prestigious universities we have in our country. This is because, UP has smart, and intelligent and understanding students who are expressive of what they really fell. That is one aspect right there, where people misunderstand about us. It’s a democratic country after all, so everybody has a right, the right to express of what we really feel but they think that UP students are uncivilized, no manners, which is obviously very, very wrong.
We are "Iskolar ng Bayan"; we are called this way because we are poor but deserving students. Obviously, you cannot be considered as an "Iskolar" if you are uncivilized and do not have manners. To be called in this way, Is such a great honor for me, it is really something we can be proud of.
It is really an honor for me to have a school like UP ever since. However, like other people, my parents also think twice before if they would submit my application form to this fabulous university. Just because, they are afraid that one day, they would just find out that they are son is involved in protests and rallies. So What? I do not care. It is a free country after all. Protests and rallies are a helpful tool in the government. Through this, corrupt government officials can realize that what they are doing is bad.
To give a description of what a UP student is not. Here it is:
-A UP student is not revolutionary, even if UP students are usually involves in protest and rallies, that does not tell that they are revolutionary, they are just expressive of what they feel.
-A UP student is not shy, hay are always on the go for presentations, stage plays and dramas.
-A UP student is not uncivilized, UP students are respectful
-A UP student is not rich, you cannot be called as an "Iskolar ng Bayan" if you are rich because that feat is only for poor and deserving students.
-A UP student is not insensitive, UP students are also human beings, they also get hurt every time they hear the bad side comments from the people.
-A UP student does not think only of their selves, they also think of others.
-A UP student does not give side comments directly, not like other people who just give side comments without thinking that they could hurt other people's feeling.
-A UP student is not dull; they are all smart and intelligent.
-A UP student does not easily give up, if they feel that they are right, they will really fight for it, especially if it benefits to all of us.
That is just a brief description only of what a UP student is not. There are still many. So people out there whom, who thinks of UP students as insensitive and uncivilized, maybe your tongue just slipped and it would be better if you stop giving useless side comments and just let the UPians express of what they really fell because you do not know how tough UPians is.
