The school is our home and we cannot deny the fact that this is where our second learning begins. UPians are considered one of the best students here in the Philippines. Once you are called a UPian, everybody thinks that you're that smart already or it's as if you're so good at everything. UPians are the "Iskolar ng Bayan". This simple phrase means that we are actually the ones who receive and use the people's taxes. But like any other schools here in the Philippines, there are all types of students. There are those who belong to the type of students who are quiet. There are some who are very noisy or just plain talkative. there are also those who reflect a bad image for the Univeristy. Never the less, UPians are considered the "smartest" and most "democratic" people. But what makes the UPians gain a bad image?
There are times that we often hear of visitors coming over to our school and sometimes, we get to meet new people. But this is not my point on what U.P students are not. What's the bad side is that sometimes we are last minute people. I agree with this, simply because I myself is a last minute person. Like what happened last March 22,2007 when there were visitors from Guam, it was like everybody wasn't ready for them. I mean it was the only time the students cleaned the campus. Most of all, there were still some parts of the campus which wasn't cleaned yet like the windows in the Physics room.
Another is that U.P. students are considered very high class intellectuals. But we couldn't really deny the fact that UPians can sometimes make our heads ache. Often, there are teachers who just leave exercises for the students to do. Once the teacher is gone, the phrase "When the cat is away, the mouse is at play" is very true. Why? Because once the teacher goes out of the room, it's like it was hit by a tremendous typhoon. A tremendous typhoon because everything changes in an instant. The room gets so noisy that there are some students who cannot actually focus on what they are working on. It's as if after the storm, a market gets into the scene. A market place full of people shouting at each other and making transactions with almost everybody.
As students, we are expected to have the right behavior. But then, there are times that we cannot control ourselves. What I mean is that we can't stop students sometimes from showing "unearthly" behaviors. Meaning, there are times when the students show uncivilized actions such as shouting or doing actions that can take the name of the school into shame. the best thing we students should do is to tell each other or to mind other's actions so that we cannot bring the name of the school to a shame.
As a UPian and a student, there are times that there are bad impressions about us. But what matters most is that we do not put the name of the school into great shame. As UPians, we should be the ones who will become the model for other people. Though there are bad impressions about U.P. students, I am proud to say that as a UPian, there is nothing impossible unless we do our best and study hard for the sake of ourselves and for others. We should prove to everyone that we UPians can bring the nation into good condition.
