How to Identify Whether It's Cuddle Weather or a National Crisis?
person Edward Alipiocalendar_month November 13, 2024No one expected it. Bicolanos are accustomed to typhoons and our resilience is rarely questioned. But Kristine was different—it was a storm of such magnitude that its impact was completely unforeseen.

Test: Trust or Trouble? | Opinion on the university’s drug-free campus program implementation
person Ivan Obiascalendar_month October 19, 2024When I arrived at our home after a long, tiring day, I immediately checked my Messenger app. One of my friends sent me a message, and I clicked the link, bringing me to the infamous AdNU Freedom Wall. The post reads “Congratulations for being chosen to participate in the AdNU 2024 Drug Test.” It got a good laugh, with the comments filled with sarcastic humor, as some say they should review the FOIL method and wish for a hundred percent positivity rate. However, after scrolling through the other entries, it became clear that many Ateneans are still uncertain about the university's drug-free campus program. While the posts were all in good fun, the underlying issue remains: there’s still a lot of confusion and concern about ADNU's drug-free campus program, and for good reason.

Love Knows No Hierarchy: Decentering Romance in an Amatonormative World
person Jerome Paul Halligcalendar_month June 29, 2025Not long ago, I was mourning a loss. It was an end of a friendship. I was extremely sad and upset about it. It felt like a breakup, a divorce even—but I don’t think I can say that. I mean, that’s only reserved for romantic partnerships. After all, they were “just” a friend. How silly of me to grieve this much and compare it to losing “the one,” “my true love,” or “Mr./Ms. Right,” right?
