becoming an Atenean
[Poetry]
I’ll abandon the Thoroughfare
where I was raised
for the Lavender Haze
the source of the angels’
undeserved, unending praises
for their God.
The bygone brown
for blue to
celebrate
and black
to grieve the old
self.
The grotesque,
scandalous prose
I once wrote for those
who listened
condemned for the needs
of those above
I’ll ditch my doctrines
for an essay or two
and fight alongside
the white men
who stole space from
a friend who needed it.
I’ll dye my hair
grey
and miss the ironies
I and those around me
have created for
ourselves.
I’ll miss myself
knowing I’ll grow as a person
for good, according to their standards,
that in a few years my Mother would
look at me in the eyes and say,
where are you?
***
From whoever I’ll become,
Ad Majorem Dei Gloriam!

El Ateneo Grand Splendid has been on my bucket list for quite some time. I read in a balcony and had coffee on stage. Truly one of the most beautiful bookstores in the world.

Laws that Maketh Man: A Political Scientists’ Use of IHLs in the Peace-Process Effort | Blog 1 of 6
Our political landscape has come a long way in the last 200 years. Due to rapid globalization, politics have changed to cater to a country, its neighbors, and the rest of the world. World policies, i.e., UDHR and IHLs, create limitations and benefits for all of humanity, which drastically changed policy-making across the globe. But amid these political advancements arise new problems that require a thorough analysis of its dynamic. A particular discipline, Political Science, spearheads the fray in investigating the effect of rampant globalization in politics. With that said, This blog will delve into the importance of political scientists in learning IHLs and how it would affect the peace process and implementation of policies. We will also delve into the potential challenges a political scientist may encounter in implementing procedures that deal with the three themes.
The Role of Politics, IHLs, and the Peace Process
In a Nutshell, Political Science delves into the use and transfer of power in politics. Majors of this discipline use political theories and recorded phenomena to understand how states interact and co-exist. States occasionally clash and wage war against one another, drastically affecting their constituents and their daily lives. This is apparent in major wars like WWI and WWII, where major atrocities of man were committed. Because of this, International Humanitarian Laws (IHL), also known as Laws of War and Armed Conflict, were created to mitigate the effects and safeguard parties caught between hostilities. IHLs are especially important for Political Science majors because they get to learn the ethical, legal, and human dimensions of armed conflicts.
Another major theme in modern politics is Peace studies. This study provides a basis for resolving, managing, and preventing peace-related conflicts. The study of peace equips political scientists with the tools to foster cooperation, mediate disputes, and address policies that address the root causes of conflicts. This knowledge is invaluable in the aims to contribute positively to tensions between states. Exploring the areas of peace and IHL offers difficulties. The complex nature of both issues poses a major obstacle. It is necessary to be thoroughly aware of each dispute's cultural, historical, and socioeconomic aspects. Similarly, it can be difficult to navigate IHL because it is a complex network of treaties, conventions, and customary laws.
So why should Political Scientists study and implement world policies like the IHLs in their research? First, state conflicts have effects that go beyond national boundaries in a connected globe. Understanding IHL gives aspiring diplomats and policymakers the tools to promote moral behavior during disputes, such as highlighting the significance of human rights even during unrest. In addition, IHLs could be useful to Political Science majors due to rapid reforms in recent policies. PolSci majors can interact with these shifts and help develop more inclusive and long-lasting global frameworks. Lastly, Political Scientists could use innate knowledge to understand and work across tensions between states. IHL and peace studies are integrated to foster critical thinking, empathy, and conflict resolution.
In a world where the consequences of political decisions resonate across continents, a PolSci major's education cannot be confined to theories of governance and power already set in stone. International Humanitarian Law and peace studies must be included for a complete grasp of global dynamics. IHL and peace studies knowledge will enable PolSci majors to influence a more just and peaceful society as future leaders, diplomats, and activists.

68-2238 - Commencement
68-2238 – Commencement
Today I attended my wife’s graduation ceremony – though apparently they call it a “commencement exercise” here. I gather that’s an American thing and it’s called that because when graduation is over, what’s when adult life begins. In my wife’s case I think its more about beginning a new phase in life?

En Todo Amar Y Servir
In July 2011, I delivered this reflection as a second-year high school student at the Ateneo de Manila High School. This was heard all over the school’s public address system during the morning reflection period. I was given this chance to share with the community during the celebration of the Ignatian month.
Isang mapagpalang araw sa ating lahat.
Naalala ko ang isang kwentong aking nabasa mga…

Mga Jakolero ng Ateneo
[Poetry]
Pre alam mo ba mula pumasok ako dito sa Ateneo naadik akong magjakol,
kasi unang araw namin, yung Prof tumayo sa harap
tapos bigla nalang nagjakol, edi lahat kami nakatitig, nagsusulat ng notes,
yung katabi ko manghang-mangha, sabi sakin,
“Galing ni Prof magjakol, idol talaga.”
Tapos minsan nagtatawag pa si Prof ng ibang tao para magjakol din kasama siya.
Yung unang beses na tinawag niya ako, hindi pa ako marunong magjakol kaya nagtanong ako,
“Prof paano ba magjakol?” Ayun hinawakan niya yung tite ko tapos hinimas-himas,
tapos ako naman hinimas din yung ulo ng tite niya, sobrang sarap.
Sa sobrang sarap, sabay kaming nagpaputok nang malakas.
Mula noon, araw-gabi na akong nagjajakol.
Wala siyang pakialam kung yung tite namin ay malaki, maliit, mapula,
maitim, may bulitas ba, makapal ba yung bulbol, kung maluwag na yung puke o masikip parin,
basta ang mahalaga lang talaga tol, kung malakas ka ba umungol.
Oo! Dapat yung ungol mo dinig hanggang sa kabilang classroom
para alam ng lahat na marunong ka magjakol!
Pero sa totoo lang tol, ayaw namin sa mga hindi marunong magjakol.
Dapat kasi nagjajakol yung buong mundo para mamulat sila sa katotohanan, diba?
Nako, bumisita kami sa mga indigent communities para mag-educate, sobrang inspiring, pero
kaawa-awa nga lang kasi hindi sila nagjajakol, alam mo ginawa namin? Kinantot namin nang
matindi, kahit sino pa yan para sila rin matuto magjakol tulad namin.
Nakakatuwa lang kasi andami nang marunong magjakol, may tite man o puke,
mayaman o mahirap, bakla man o hindi, nagjajakol na kasi tinuruan namin
magjakol. Pero alam mo ba, iba-iba kasi yan kada school. Sa UP, kaliwang kamay ang gamit
pero yung hinlalaki hinahawakan yung malaki nilang ulo, sa UST kanang kamay tapos
pabilisan, sa La Salle naman astig din hindi nga nila hinahawakan ang tite nila, yung
dalawa nilang kamay hinihimas-himas ang utong nila. Dito naman sa Ateneo, kaliwang kamay
din tapos binabagalan namin ang pag-himas sa ulo para maramdaman ang bawat taas at
pagbaba ng kamay namin.
Ang mahalaga lang pre, marunong ka magjakol
kasi sa totoo lang nakakahiya na hindi ka nagjajakol.
E kanina lang katatapos lang namin sa klase magjakol,
astig nga eh, sabay sabay kaming lahat nagpaputok tas anglakas pa ng inungol namin:
everything is political!
