Dear soon-to-be alumni,
My thoughts will be with you this Sunday as you graduate from our university. This Sunday you will no longer be UP students, but forever alumni of our common alma mater.
It was my pleasure being part of your journey at UP. And I hope you had a great time during the trip, and that you will continue returning to UP even if life brings you to many distant places. I will eventually be back to welcome you there.
I know times are tough nowadays with the global downturn. And those of you who have yet to find a viable job, please e-mail me asap and I’ll see if I can find some work that might interest you.
Until then, enjoy this, your moment of triumph—and make it last.
Best regards,
Sir Ernan
*I must admit, if I didn’t know better about UP and commercialization schemes, about how elitist education is nowadays and why professionals, like my father, become vulnerable to being sacked, I would’ve found this note the sweetest.
But it’s otherwise.
But I’m not graduating. The moment of triumph I am working for is of another kind. And it’s not only mine.

- Anali:
- naagit ako
- world financial crisis at its most concrete manifestation
- mukhang mateteggy na ang company ng tatay koooo
- Jomar:
- bakit anong company niya?
- abroad ba tatay mo?
- Anali:
- hindi
- prudentialife plans
- haggard talaga
- Jomar:
- ay oo nga
- Anali:
- hay nakuu
- Jomar:
- well talaga puwede dun siya umabot dahil base lang naman yan sa speculative market
- Anali:
- tama naman
- sobrang weak lang talaga ng kahit anong investment sa ngayon
- walang kasiguraduhan ang mga bagay
- Jomar:
- kapag nag-alisan yung mga pensioners guguho ang financial structure
- Anali:
- tas iniisip ko lang na kung sakaling magsara ang company na to, andaming mawiwindang
- pero yung mga may-ari naman, parang mayaman pa rin naman sila
- Jomar:
- siyempre kasi nakuha na niya yung profit niya
- Anali:
- after all, hindi naman yung mga kapitalista ang at risk.
- Jomar:
- besides bet nga yang negosyo na yan kaysa magtayo ka ng factory
- wala kang gagastusin para sa mga raw materials at means of production
- paikot ka lang ng datung marz
- Anali:
- kundi yung mga taong sa simula pa lang ay ineexploit na niya at patuloy na nakasabit sa bingit ng kawalan ng kabuhayan
- true true
- laway lang ng mga tagabenta ng plans
- Jomar:
- ang way out na lang for prudential is that they can ask for bail out or they need to expand their market para mapatakbo at magpapasok ng pera
- they need to monopolize the market
- Anali:
- true true
- monokap talaga
- Jomar:
- or allow themselves to be owned by the long-standing pre-need company
- Anali:
- yeahyeah
- ganun naman talaga
- anlaki nga ng duda ko sa pagbaban na naganap
- kasi 5B short lang naman sa required yung company samantalang yung ibang companies, umabot na sa pagsasara, hindi man lang niregulate ng SEC
- may pulitika rin talaga to. rifts between the ruling classes
- or favor nga para sa mageemerge na monokap
- Jomar:
- yeah
- ganech
