I have a very soft spot for carinderias. My mom used to run one in Marawi. The entire household ran it: buying ingredients, chopping & cooking, washing dishes, floor service, etc. We went home during lunches to help. The carinderia gave us our respective diplomas. And more.

And eyeball indeed! Grabe ambait ni Lord. Before leaving, VP Leni looked at me one last time and said (as if trying to remind herself), "Rashid Pandi, right?" She didn't know me. My mom introduced me to her. She was trying to remember my name. My heart. 🥺

My mom to VP Leni: "Yung picture mo ma'am na nagpa-plantsa ng toga ni Jillian ginawa ko din yun! Gumraduate din itong anak ko dito sa New York." "Nag-message pa ako sa'yo ma'am na sana magkita tayo sa New York." In her very strong, unique, wonderful Bisaya accent. Hay mamang.

The fact that our Catholic community is permitted to hold mass in a university facility is proof of MSU’s commitment to fostering an inclusive community for all. The university gymnasium has been home to Sunday mass for as long as I can remember. MSU is a victim here, too.

Allow me to highlight how difficult it is to secure the Jessup Cup, the Olympics of mooting. The Philippines first won in 1995 (UP Law) and it took another 9 years to secure a second win (Ateneo Law in 2004). We waited an incredible 20 years to claim our third title. 20 years.
