Response: U.P. is so iba na
Originally posted on Sankage Steno: Like I was in the University of the Philippines kanina in Diliman, and I noticed that my Alma Mater is so iba na. It has changed talaga, like a total makeover!

In No Regrets, women writers talk about what it was like to read literature’s “midcentury misogynists.”
This isn’t just about the books. When young women read the hypermasculine literary canon—what Emily Gould calls the “midcentury misogynists,” staffed with the likes of Roth, Mailer, and Miller—their discomfort is punctuated by the knowledge that their male peers are reading these books, identifying with them, and acting out their perspectives and narratives.

Studying in Minutes
Begin. Hello. The time is 23:02, the day Thursday, and I have yet to study for two exams: a long test in Geology and a quiz in History. Both have heavy weight in my current academic career, and yet here I am about to cram it. The reason? I’m not really sure; maybe it was…
