FROM THE EDITOR-IN-CHIEF

Being a leader was not an easy task.

I thought I was tough enough to lead a publication, take note that this is not a confession. I just want to share my experienced from the two last semesters. At first, I cannot contain my happiness as I successfully got the opportunity to become an Editor-inChief, after 9 years in Campus Journalism. Yet struggle is real. This year (last two semesters) the publication did not get any support from the Parent and Teachers Association which is the only source of fund of the publication all throughout, from the past years.

Then I have this insecurities, I was too shy to lead the higher year staff writers which is under the sovereignty of the publication. Actually, I only had conducted one editorial board meeting in my whole term which I knew wrong. I cannot control the power that was given to me by my mentor, kuya Jasper Dionisio and I’m sorry for that.

I also want to express my gratitude to my ate Alyssa Soriano and ate Denise Unsay for guiding me on what to do and what is not.

Without them the “PagalIEngan 2017” wouldn’t be a successful one. They cheered me up when I felt down and they were there, always, in times of need. I also want to express my gratitude to kuya Kim Rondina for his patience, for his amazing lay-out editing skills, without him surely the publication won’t be here on it’s place.

To my Advisers, sir Ivy Mar Ramos and maam Marianne Calayag. To my editorial board, ate Rose Geronimo and ate Paulene Villanueva; and to my staff writers especially to Adrian Dizon who will take the responsibility as the next Editor-in-Chief for the Academic Year 2018-2019. Yes, you read it right.

I am leaving the publication with a glad in my heart together with the lessons I had received. This is not a good bye yet this is a new beginning as I enter the Vice President for Student Development position in the organization of Industrial Engineering Department – ISIE-BulSU. I promise to continue my passion in writing as a contributor.

Thank you for appreciating my term as your EIC, may the good Lord be with you all who read this letter and may you be a Successful Industrial Engineer soon. God bless us all.

pagdadalawang isip pa sa pagiging isang IE. Kasama na rin diyan ang mga pagkakataong nadidiktahan ka ng mga tao sa paligid mo na sumuko sa mga nasimulan mo.

“Ang pagiging IE student pa lang isang unforgettable experience na kasi tanda ko noong 2nd year college ako dapat magshi-shift na ko sa ME noon kasi na-discourage ako ng mga kakilala ko na walang board exam ang IE”, at may mga pagkakaton na may ginagamit na instrumento ang Diyos upang iparating sa atin kung ano ang tamang desisyon. “Pero noong nalaman ni Sir Ivy ‘yung balita na ‘yon, kinausap niya ko na may Certification Exam na raw ang IE na pang tapat sa board exam ng ibang Engineering discipline. Tapos binati ako ni Mam Marianne noong birthday ko, may naka note pa sa dulo na ‘wag na kong magshift. Hindi na talaga ko nagshift kasi nagustuhan ko rin ang IE”, Ayon kay Sir Jeremy.

“It’s better to be late than never”, ika nga nila, at ‘yan din marahil ang nasa isip ni Sir sa mga panahong inakala niyang male-late na siya sa CIE Exam. “Akala ko male-late na ko noon kasi hindi ko alam yung Adamson University kasi doon gaganapin yung exam. Nagtanong tanong pa ko. Akala nga ng mga kaklase ko noon hindi na ko mag-take kasi malapit na talaga sa late ‘yon”.

Since ayaw ko nang mapalayo, sa BulSU ko na rin napiling mag-aral kaya kahit walang Chemical Engineering doon, mahusay naman ang BulSU sa Engineering kaya tinuloy ko na rin”, ayon kay Sir Jeremy.

Bilang isang estudyante sa kolehiyo, lahat tayo ay inihahanda upang sa ating pagtatapos ay meron tayong magagamit na sapat na kaalaman sa ating pagtatatrabaho. Kalakip ng mga paghahandang ‘yon ay ang kasiguraduhan natin sa ating kursong kinuha. Hindi naiiba si Sir Jeremy sa mga estudyanteng may

With wonderful way to express the art of engineering skills, this kind of events really teaches aspiring industrial engineers to put what they learn into test and eventually into reality. The key to a positive experience for these students is truly putting curiosity and creativity into showcase.

ENGR. JAMES’ PIECES OF ADVICE FOR IE STUDENTS

•“Identify your capabilities”.

•[Think of] “Which area of IE (subject/activities) or your strength, that do you think you want to pursue in your career?”

•“It is important to choose your first job title because normally, your first job title will become your career trend. Not all the time, but I can say it in general that your first job title will be your future career path.”

•“Gain experience in your current job.”

•“Continue to learn and don’t forget your IE tools as your basic foundation.”

•“Continue to generate new innovative ideas in your current company”.

There you have it my fellow IEs! I hope it inspires all of you to hear another success story of an alumnus from our department. And I also hope that you have picked up some ideas and tips for the first steps in your career as an IE. Keep in mind that if they can do it, you also can. It is true that no matter where you go, or wherever in the world life takes you, you can excel, you can find success. You just have to grab the opportunities and climb up to the next level.

Let challenges transform you.

Jiā yóu!

JOLLIBEE VS. MCDONALDS

“Survey lang po… Saan mas masarap kumain: Jollibee o McDonald’s?

Sambit ng isang babaeng lumapit sa akin sabay abot ng papel at ballpen. Saan nga ba? Meron bang mas? Eh halos magkatulad lang naman sila. Hindi ako makapagdesisyon. Ayoko sayangin ang tinta ng panulat na iniabot sa akin. Walang nananaig, hindi makaboto ng wasto.

Sinubukan kong tignan sa ibang dimensyon upang makapadesisyon.

Alin ba ang may layunin na makapagpasaya. Yung tipong magbibigay ng limang piso, magpapakopya sa exam, sasayaw na parang baliw at iba pa. Sapagkat ang kahulugan ng masarap ay masaya at ang masaya ay masarap na rin.

Si Jollibee ang pagkakatanda ko’y pula na kilala sa chickenjoy, ang manok na hindi killjoy. Killjoy? Killjoy! Ang bubuyog na sumipsip ng utak ng mga bulaklak na natuyot na. Masaya bang pumatay?

Nariya’t walang kasiguraduhan ang buhay ng nakararami nang dahil sa oplan tokhang. Ayon sa Commission on Human Rights, higit tatlong libo na ang nasawi sa operasyong ito. Hindi ko maramdaman ang tag-line nilang ‘Sa Jollibee, Bida ang Saya!’ parang puro lungkot yata ang magiging emosyon sa ganitong pangyayari.

Si McDonald’s, dilaw na dilaw na tila kakulay ng nang limang daang piso. Anong saya ang magiging hatid nito at mapapasabi ako ng ‘Love ‘ko ‘to!’ May dalawang uri na ang clown sa panahon ngayon, yung iba’y nagpapasaya pa rin sa mga birthday party samatalang ang iba naman ay kumikitil na ng buhay sa mga pelikula. Matalino ba sila dahil kaya nilang maging mabuti at masama o nagtatago lamang sila sa kolorete upang pagtakpan ang wala pa ring kamatayang isyu ng Hacienda Luisita.

Hindi pula’t dilaw tunay na magkalaban…

bisig. Habang lumalalim ang usapan, lumalalim din ang paghawak nila sa akin. Hindi ako makahinga, makapiglas at makatakas. Wala ng paraan para makalayo mula sa kanila. Ang tanging daan na lang para makatakbo papalayo, ay ang bumitaw.

Ako lang pala ang umaasa sa pagyakap ng iba. Ako lang pala ang ayaw bumitaw sa kolonyalismong aking pinanghahawakan. Naputol na nga ang ugnayan, naputol ang mga palitan ng salita, at wala na ring nakahain ng patibong para maging isa sa kanila.

Nasaan na ang mga Espanyol? Kanina ko pa iniisip kung saan sila pupunta. Namulat na lang ang tulala kong mga mata sa mga letra na nakaguhit sa aking paboritong libro na may pangalang El Filibusterismo na kanina ko pa pala binabasa.

Liham mula sa Isang Halimaw Papatayin ko ang sanlibutan.

Bata pa lamang ako nang minsan mong iwanan ang kapansanan ang mga sanga ko. Hindi na nga naantala ang pangarap mong manakaw ang mga ginto’t natatagong yaman ko. Hindi mo na rin napansin ang mga kalat sa tabi. Dahil ang alam mo lang ay ang kumuha ng hindi mo pag-aari.

Nagdala ako ng malakas na hangin na tumangay sa bubong niyong napalilibutan lamang nang mabigat na bato. Ako rin ang nagbigay ng rumaragasang baha na sinira ang mga pananim. Sa akin nagsimula ang galit na pagtingin ng mata ng bagyo.

Ubus na ubos na ako. Panahon na para ako’y katakutan niyo. Ako ang halimaw na bunga ng kasakiman ninyo. Ako ang halimaw nang konsensiya niyo. At oo, bitbit ko ang malakas na bagyo na sisira sa binuo niyong pagkatao.

Within “Me” Papa P.

= LITERARY =

Dont let others dictate on who you will be Stand still and take a deep breathe As you make yourself free Dont be scared of the whirling words Cause you’re here within my lee Their minds will be open soon As i give you the key To every mans’ heart So beauty is what all they can see As they look at you a man who has a girl within “me”

IkawPapaatC. ako Ang kwento nating dalawa Naglalakad ako sa kalsada ng buhay ng mag-isa Ngunit sa kalagitnaan ay naroon ka Sinabayan mo kong maglakad at tumingin sa aking mga mata Unti-unting bumungad ang ngiti mo, kasunod ang ngiti ko Umakbay ka, umakbay ako Kahit na madilim ay hindi tayo takot na madapa o mabungo Sapagkat alam nating may “ikaw” na handang sumalo sa “ako” Ang bawat segundo, minuto, oras na kasama ka Ang dulot ay ang mga ala-alang kay saya Ikaw yung kilig Ikaw yung taong nakakapag-paikot ng 360° sa aking leeg Pero sa pag-ikot nito, sa pag-ikot ko, ay ang pagkamulat sa totoo Sa paglalakad pala natin sa kalsada ng buhay May iba tayong kasabay Kung sa akin, ikaw ay naka-akbay Sa kabilang banda, hawak mo naman ang kanyang kamay At ang paningin na nakatuon sa akin Ay kanya namang inangkin Hanggang ang mga bisig na nakaakbay sa nagmamahal na “ako” Na alam ko namang kahit paano’y minahal mo Ay nawala! Nauna ka na kasama sya!

Ngunit sa paglakad nyo ay lumingon ka Kahit na padilim ng padilim ang imahe mo sinta Nakita kita, nakita ko ang kumikislap mong mga mata Dahil sa nangingilid mong luha Kaya ang tanong ko, “ may pag-asa pa ba?”

“Kaya pa ba?”

“Kaya ko pa bang humabol sa inyo?”

“Dapat pa bang umasa sayo?”

Bakit ko pa ba tinatanong ito?

Alam ko namang ang sagot sa sarili kong mga tanong ay oo Kakayanin kong humabol sa inyo, sayo Patuloy akong aasa dahil sa mga bagay na pinanghahawakan ko Na alam ko ring pinanghawakan at pinanghahawakan mo Kaya ko pa! Oo! Kasi alam kong kaya mo! Kinakaya mo!

Nandirito ako naglalakad sa madilim na kalsada Nakatingin sa harapan at umaasa Na sa pagpikit at muling pagmulat ng mga mata Ay naroon ka na Naghihintay Hindi para ako’y akbayan kundi upang hawakan ang aking kamay At samahan sa kalsada ng buhay Hanggang sa matapos ang paglalakbay Ito ang kwento ko Ang kwento nating dalawa, ng “tayo” Kahit na wala pa talagang “tayo”, kasi merong “kayo’ Nandirito pa rin ako At sana sa sususnod hindi na paglingon sa akin ang gawin mo Para naman yung “ang kwento nating dalawa” ay maging ‘kwento ng ‘tayo’

Pasensya na, Mahal kita, Wala ka nang magagawa Gaoxing

Ikaw ang nais makita’t makausap araw gabi Nagbibigay kulay sa mundo at ngiti sa’king labi Sinta anong meron ka’t nagpipigil sa’kin humindi Pag may hiling ka ako’y tila isang mitsang may sindi Hindi ko inaasahan na mahuhulog sa iyo Ikaw yung tipo na kahit sino ay magkakagusto Mga tawa’t ngiti mong nagpapaikot sa’king mundo Presensya mong nagsisilbing gamot pag may sakit ako Pasensya sana’y pakahabaang mabuti ang pisi Dahil pag-ibig ko’y aligid sa’yo tulad ng binhi Mag-uugat na ang pandilig ay iyong mga ngiti Magbubunga lamang sa “oo” na pinakamimithi Mag-iingat kang palagi dahil ikaw ang buhay ko Maliwanag na tanglaw sa hinaharap kasama mo Pag-ibig ko sayo’y tila sunflower, susunod sa’yo Tulad ng sampaguita na susundan halimuyak mo

Mapaglarong Tadhana Gaoxing

Mapungay mong mata ako’y nahalina Mapula pa sa rosas, labi mo sinta Nais kong ipagtapat na gusto kita Huwag sanang mabigla’t ika’y matuwa Aamin na ko ngunit naunahan mo Sa’kin ikaw pala’y may lihim na gusto Nabuking mo rin na baliw ako sayo Di nag-atubili’t sumagot ng “oo” Sadyang sobrang mapaglaro ang tadhana Akalain mong ang tipo kong dalaga Ay ako pa ang natipuhang binata Salamat’t binigay ka ng Diyos Ama Wag sanang iwan magunaw man ang mundo Pagmamahal ko sayo’y taga sa bato Kaya’t hinding-hindi ito magbabago Simpleng tulad mo ang pang habang buhay ko
