Why would drinking approximately three bottles of beer give me a hangover? I havent had a hangover in ages and I totally not consider consuming merely three bottles of beer as drinking.
What is up Eunice?

Address to the UP Econ Graduates on Recognition Day
Address to the Graduates on Recognition Day
Robina Gokongwei-Pe*
* Delivered on 26 April 2008, on the occasion of Recognition Day for the UP School of Economics, UP Film Center
Thank you very much Professor Dante Canlas for your wonderful, wonderful
introduction. (Addressing the faculty and guests)
Dean Emmanuel de Dios – Dean de Dios was my professor of international trade way
back in 1981, and it is not only because he gave me a grade of 1.5 that I agreed to be your
guest speaker for today. It is hard for me to remember all my teachers in college, but
Dean de Dios was someone I remembered very well, because I couldn’t imagine how one
so young could be so brilliant. Dean de Dios was personally chosen by UP President
Emerlinda Roman to be one of the speakers at the UP Centennial Lecture Series. He will
speak on “Secular morality and the University” on May 7; (Plugging plugging.)
By the way, President Roman says that noted filmmaker Behn Cervantes keeps
reminding everyone that it’s pronounced “centennial” with a short “e,” and not
“centeeeennial.”
Former Dean Raul Fabella – It’s unfortunate that I missed Dean Fabella in college. I
think he was in the US when I was a student;
College Secretary Oggie Arcenas – Di ko rin inabutan si Professor Arcenas, but then he
must’ve been still in high school when I was at UPSE. When I saw him, I came to the
conclusion that UPSE college secretaries are all boyish-looking because the college
secretary during my time, Professor Cayetano Paderanga, who incidentally taught me
Econ 101, had the same features. (During my time, there were two cutie pies – Professor
Vito Inoferio and Professor Cayetano Panderanga.)
Professor Dante Canlas, who taught me Econ 181. He was the only professor man
enough to give me a grade of “1” even if I didn’t take his midterm exams. I will tell you
about that later;
Professor Solita Monsod – the irrepressible Winnie Monsod, with her sexy legs, miniskirt,
booming voice, cigarette and iced tea in tow. Professor Monsod taught us Econ 11
and Econ 101, and she explained everything so clearly it made economics less scary than
I thought. One morning during a class in the auditorium, Professor Monsod said, “Hey,
who’s been spreading the news that this glass I’m carrying everyday to class contains
scotch? Of course I don’t bring scotch to class. It’s iced tea!”;
Professor Manny Esguerra – sayang, di ko naging teacher si Prof Esguerra;
Professor Benjie Sandoval of the College of Business Administration – Benjie is
Executive Director and my barkada at the UP Centennial Commission;
Tita Eden Bautista, former administrative officer at SE 101, who gave me my honorable
dismissal in 1981 when I unexpectedly left UP in my senior year. If I need someone to
remember where I placed all my things, it has to be Tita Eden. In fact, she is right now
holding my handbag for me;
Joaquin Teotico, President of the UPSE Alumni Association;
Academic personnel, administration personnel, parents and graduates, good afternoon.

holding my handbag for me;
Joaquin Teotico, President of the UPSE Alumni Association;
Academic personnel, administration personnel, parents and graduates, good afternoon.
I’m very happy to be back in the university which I never graduated from but I wish I
had. I am simply one lucky bitch to be speaking on your recognition day. Thank you to
the UPSE Student Council, led by Sarah Adan and Jances Parado, for inviting me. In
their letter, Sarah and Jances asked me to share my experiences and insights into being an
instrument of meaningful change in society. And if could please bring in the concept of
economics as an instrument of change and progress.
I gave Dean de Dios a call and said, “Dean, it’s a wonderful topic but I don’t know what
I’m supposed to say,” and he told me, “Let’s have lunch with the students and talk about
it.”
And so I did, and I met Sarah, Jances, and other student reps Mario Garcia, Nica Maloles
and Jelain Reyes, plus Dean Fabella, Professor Arcenas, Professor Monsod and Jack
Teotico. I asked the students, what would you really, really be interested in? They said,
can I talk about what’s for them after economics? The faculty said, how about
entepreneurship, or how about matching economic theories with reality?
And so I decided to put everything together, as chopsuey as it may sound. Let me start
with economic theories, or concepts, or terminology, whatever is the right way of calling
them.
The first theory is the ubiquitous law of supply and demand. The reason I failed to
graduate from UP was that I was kidnapped on the way to School in September of 1981,
and guess what, right on the day I was supposed to take Porfessor Canlas’s exams.
Contrary to the 2000 movie “Ping Lacson, supercop”, I was not jogging on the grounds
of UP wearing a mid-riff when I got kidnapped. In the first place I didn’t have the body
then to wear that outfit and never will. By the way, the actress who played me in the
movie was Angel Locsin, and I hope you didn’t invite me to make this speech because
you thought I looked like her. (Of course, deep inside, I wish I did.)
By the way, yes, it was then-Lt. Col. and now Senator Ping Lacson who rescued me after
seven days in captivity. He literally kicked and broke down the door, just like what you
see in the movies.
At that time, 1981, the kidnappers demanded P7 million in ransom money. Nowadays,
any Tom, Dick and Harry would kidnap you for as low as P300,000. And that’s the law
of supply and demand. The price has gone down to P300,000 because there are so many
unorganized criminal gangs nowadays who are willing to take anything, and the victims
are more willing to give since it’s not worth your life trying to haggle if it’s only
P300,000.
You must be wondering whether the kidnappers were caught. Which brings me the
second theory, the theory of competitive advantage.
The mastermind was the son of a judge from Cebu. The judge from the lower court found
him guilty, but when the case came up to the Supreme Court, the justices there acquitted
him. It’s only in the Philippines where you see the mastermind of a kidnapping get
acquitted, and I wonder whether it has to do with his being the son of another judge. That
is what you call competitive advantage.
The third theory is cost-benefit analysis. In 1989, we acquired the venerable national
daily Manila Times from the Roces family. Sometime in 1998, my editors, who
incidentally came from UP, wrote a headline that annoyed then-President Joseph Estrada.
The story was about how the government was unwittingly led to sign an anomalous
contract with IMPSA, a foreign group. Take note, this was in 1998, so if you’re thinking
that this is ZTE, this is not ZTE.
Anyway, I didn’t even know what the story was all about, as my policy was to leave the
editors to do their job while I handled the business side. I ended up getting sued by the
president of the country, and for several nights, I thought hard about the future of the
paper. As an economist would say, “Do a cost-benefit analysis.” The benefit was that it
was a well-respected paper with a well-respected staff. However, the cost was that I was
sure to die early, thinking about getting sued day in and day out. I didn’t want the staff to
deal with a boss suffering from a nervous breakdown, and I didn’t want the readers to
think that we were now forced to change the newspaper’s ideals to avoid any more
lawsuits, so with a heavy heart, we sold the paper.
Running a well-respected paper was part of my efforts at being an instrument of
meaningful change in society. So much for the effort. I figured, hay naku, magtitindera
na lang ako.
Anyway, five years after, the government ended up suing that same foreign group,
IMPSA, for leading them to sign that anomalous contract. By that time, I was already
leading a less-turbulent life managing our retail group, and I left my sister Lisa to
continue with publishing. She was smarter than me. She put up the highly successful
Summit Publishing, which includes some staples such as Cosmopolitan and FHM. This is
where I can say that when it comes to sex, the demand is always greater than the supply.
The fourth concept is about monopolies and oligopolies. A UP alumnus recently
branded our family as oligarchs in the airline industry. In my economics textbook, an
oligopoly happens when only a few players dominate the industry and set the price of
goods unreasonably high. I do not know how we can be oligarchs if we give
opportunities for people to travel more often by providing one-peso fares. Setting the
price of goods with one-peso fares? Maybe he wants us to lower it to 50 centavos.
Let me go on to the fifth and sixth concepts, which I believe are the most important
because it has to do with what you are going to do after graduation. Specifically, what
you think you can do after an economics degree. In truth, you can do anything you want.
In fact, I asked the student reps over lunch why they majored in economics, and they said
it’s because they had the impression that you can do anything with an economics degree,
and I told them they were right.
In fact, I wonder who among of you were like me who decided to major in economics
because we wanted something close to business but not take up business administration,
and we thought that economics and BA were almost the same. It turns out that they’re
related in some ways but in most ways, they’re totally different, and it’s a good thing I
didn’t major in BA: I barely passed Accounting.
My dad didn’t force me to take up BA after I graduated in high school in 1978 because he
said that I would learn business anyway when I entered business, so I should go learn
something else. If I had had the choice, I would’ve gone into anthropology or veterinary
medicine, but then it was uso among the Chinoys at that time that you either majored in
pre-med because you were going to be a doctor, or in business because you were going to
work in a bank. It seems that Chinoys were headed to only two professions at that time.
I was the typical Chinoy who just followed where everyone went.
Anyway, back to my fifth and sixth theories – the theory of opportunity costs and the
law of diminishing marginal returns. I know that when you start looking for a job, you
will do two things – you will compare what each company is offering you, and you will
compare your pay with your batchmates. Taking the first job offer that comes your way
implies an opportunity cost of losing the chance of making more money. You wouldn’t
want to lose that opportunity of making more money would you?
Six months into the job, either one of two things can happen, or the two may happen at
the same time. Six months into the job, either you are thinking about whether this is the
job you really want, and you will keep on meditating about it to the consternation of your
boss; or another company will try to poach you by offering better pay and benefits, or
both.
Now take note that you belong to Generation Y, which the latest issue of The Mckinsey
Quarterly describes as people “born after 1980 – whose outlook as been shaped by by,
among other things, the Internet, information overload, and overzealous parents. HR
professionals say these workers demand more flexibility, meaningful jobs, professional
freedom, higher rewards, and a better work life-life balance than older employees do.
People in this group see their professional careers as a series of two-three year chapters
and will readily switch jobs”. Emphasis on “readily switch jobs.”
So on to Theory No. 6, the law of diminishing marginal returns. Being a member of Gen
Y, you may have the habit of moving from one job to another always grabbing the one
that will pay you more. You have the right not to miss out on these opportunity costs, but
take note that if, by the time you’re 30, and you show this three-page resumé of having
had 12 jobs in eight years, you can be sure that you will experience first hand the law of
diminishing marginal returns. On your 13th job-interview, you will be worth what your
rate was when you were 22. No employer will dare hire you, because he thinks you will
just run off again after six months.
Assuming (which by the way is an economist’s favorite word), you decided to become an
entrepreneur instead of seeking employment, then bravo, you made the right decision.
Entrepreneurship is a topic that Dean de Dios wanted me to talk about, but I told him that
I wasn’t an entrepreneur. I am only managing one of my father’s businesses and using
company money, not my money. But Dean said that in any case, he knows more people
who have spent all their father’s wealth and run the business into the ground much faster
than it took me to build my father’s business. So thank you for your kind words, Dean.
I am not an entrepreneur – it is my dad who’s an entrepreneur – but let me say something
about it. I think the reason few people go into entrepreneurship especially when they
come from top tier schools like UP is that when they want to open their own taho cart, for
example, people around them would tease them and say “Ano ka ba, galing kang UP,
magtataho ka lang!”
My answer to that is “E ano?” At least you have something you can call your very own.
You are not beholden to anyone but yourself, and yet you bring joy to society because
you give people a product that they like. After all, big businesses started by being small
once. Big business didn’t start out big: there’s no such thing.
Let me give you though one tip about running a business, and one more economic theory
to go with it.
It’s about the theory of market competition. There’s such a thing as fair competitors,
and there’s such a thing as desperate competitors. Both are troublesome, but you know
fair competition is part of free enterprise. As for desperate competitors, you worry if this
country is retrograding
You were not born yet when the story of my kakambal na ahas who was half-woman,
half-snake came out when we opened our second Robinsons Department Store branch in
Cebu in 1985. My kakambal was supposed to be the source of our wealth as she laid
golden eggs. She was supposed to be hiding under the floor of the fitting rooms, and
everytime a beautiful woman would enter, the floor would open and she would land right
inside the mouth of my kakambal na ahas. I have no idea who started this incredible
story, but I have to tell you that some people believed it and even started staring at my
legs if there were any signs of snakeskin. A few people still ask me about it, and I have to
tell them na naging handbag na ho sa Robinsons Department Store.
Thank goodness there was no internet yet at that time, or you would start receiving
photos of me with a snake’s body and my kakambal na snake with a woman’s legs.
How do you deal with these dirty tricks? Nothing, just keep quiet and let the story fade
away. Or better still, make a joke out of it.
And that is what you are going to face on a regular basis once you step out of the School.
Someone will be out to kill your product, out to get your job, out to grab your boyfriend.
And if you’re an unlucky bitch, maybe all at the same time! But in the end, you will
come out a stronger person, and better still, end up with a much better boyfriend.
Thank you and congratulations!

Looking for someone to team up with? Shop around. Don't pick the first candidate.In Detail
If you are looking for someone to team up with, either in a romantic relationship or in a business context, do not pick the first person who shows interest! You had better shop around if you want to find the perfect partner -- or at least a partner who will be able to provide everything you truly need. It can be flattering when someone makes an effort to be a part of your life, but that doesn't always mean they deserve to be there. It's not only fine to be picky, it is smart to be picky!--------------

STATEMENT OF THE ATENEO LAW SCHOOL
ON THE EVENTS OF 16 MAY 2008
ON THE EVENTS OF 16 MAY 2008
Last 16 May 2008, a message was sent via electronic mail ("e-mail") to the mailing list of Ateneo Law Batch 2011 by a person under the assumed name of "Aquila Legis." The message consisted of remarks welcoming this year's batch of incoming Ateneo Law Freshmen, an invitation directed towards the members of the said batch to join the ranks of the Aquila Legis Fraternity, and comments about a former member of the Ateneo Law School Student Body, who likewise is a member of the Aquila Legis Fraternity. The message also carried file attachments – photographs of this member of the Aquila Legis Fraternity, taken after his tenure in the
The tenor and palpable sarcasm of the message, considered together with the nature of the photos attached to the same, undoubtedly disclose a calculated intention on the part of its author to defame and disparage both the Aquila Legis Fraternity and one of its members who, it must be stressed, was also a former student at the
involving as it does a public and malicious imputation of an act or circumstance tending to dishonor or discredit particular persons.
We, the Student Council Officers of the Ateneo de Manila Law School, CONDEMN IN THE STRONGEST POSSIBLE TERMS THESE LIBELOUS, DEFAMATORY, DISPARAGING AND TASTELESS REMARKS made by the author of this message, who hides in a cowardly manner behind the anonymity afforded by the Internet. This kind of conduct blatantly contradicts fundamental principles of ethics which bind not only members of the legal profession, but even students of the law who continuously hope to be among those qualified to become part of what ought to be an honorable profession. This conduct also abuses the use of the batch e-groups, which should be used for purposes of disseminating information pertaining to official or school matters.
We also IMPLORE ALL MEMBERS OF THE STUDENT BODY TO EXERCISE PRUDENCE AND SOUND JUDGMENT IN RESPONDING TO THE BEHAVIOR OF THE AUTHOR. Specifically, pointing fingers will never result in the ascertainment of the author's identity, but will instead foster an environment of hostility to the detriment of all at the end of the day.
We have likewise RESOLVED TO BRING THE MATTER TO THE ATTENTION OF ATTY. SEDFREY CANDELARIA, Associate Dean for Student Affairs of the Ateneo Law School

Nanganganak ba ang Kisses?
Ultimate childhood memory ito. Naalala ko na when I was in kindergarten, bumili ako ng isang pack ng 5 pesos lang at binenta ng 50 cents ang bawat piraso sa loob. Sabi ko pa, buntis un mga kisses na binebenta k. Ubos. Naubos din malamang ang mga bulak sa bahay-bahay ng mga classmates ko na nagmistulang motel / makeout place ng mga kisses na supposedly ay nanganganak.
Winner talaga!
Winner talaga!

DRESS CODE
I arrived earlier than usual, waited leisurely for them, enjoying my favorite Chai Latte. When it’s hot, I want it hotter. Then they came, I saw and we conquered. My very own CASHMERE MAFIA. After a few hours of catching up and trying to make the most out of our very rare get-togethers, we resorted to what we do best, scrutinizing each other’s choice of clothes.
I was scolded for wearing something that does not expose skin during summer, a black turtleneck, lacy top. It earned me the crown of “SUMMER IDOL.” This label was created [no] thanks to Abby, whose pair of shoes still has its price tag after months of wearing them. Abby’s fashion emergency was revealed through an observation by AM, whose “curtain-inspired spags under her cardigan” earned her the highly-coveted title “SAKITIN LOOK”. The term was coined by Sam, whose dress was awkwardly open at the back, unnecessarily alerting everyone who is unaware that it was intended to be such. The fashion mishap was a circle, it truly never ended.

our
coffee
in silence;
not having
to talk, meet
eye to eye
and interact
is sometimes
easier
and
less
complicated.
The unspoken words are chosen to be unspoken
because they are not mere words but emotions
guised in letters. I watch you purposely, carefully
memorizing how you move and not move. Pretending
to not feel my gaze, I assume, is your way of
protecting you and me. No
just you and me... forgotten. It's really just you.
If you let me, I will talk not through my mouth
but through my heart that silently shouts, "Fool!"
over and over. To be a fool is my comfort, pain is my
wall. There are moments when you're there
yet I don't feel you. I'd rather really
that you hurt me and be there than leave and
bring with you my ability
to feel and be felt.
Don't ever mistake me for sadness,
sadness is my friend.
I am not really alone.
I am with myself.
Go straight to my heart.
I have to write a happier verse.
Rhyme with me. We'll sing-song
our way to happiness -- together.

MANILA, Philippines – Dear Emily,
I’ve recently separated from my wife after a marriage of over 10 years, and I’m ready to meet other people again. I am thinking of posting my availability in a dating website with the following info about me:
“I’m 35, and by this time I’ve become pretty comfortable with myself: I’m cute (call it handsome?), very intelligent and cultured, and well-mannered to the point of being old-fashioned. I speak several languages and enjoy meeting new people, making new friends and trying out new experiences.
I’m not all wine and roses—if you’re into astrology, I fit the Gemini profile to a T.
I can also be arrogant, sharp-tongued, lazy and cold, and I don’t like to waste my time with fools. I find willful ignorance and stupidity to be among the worst human traits; the mind is a terrible thing to waste.
I’m here because I’m not pleased with what I’ve seen thus far in the so-called ‘singles scene.’ I wonder if the laws of demand and supply are still valid because judging from what’s out there, lots of people seem to have lost touch with reality.
I’d like to meet someone with the same qualities or better, someone with a sharp wit and a strong sense of humor, who appreciates refined company and wants to enjoy life to the fullest.
Someone cute or outright beautiful, very smart (I’m talking over 130 IQ!), with a golden heart, who gives as much as she receives, and understands friendship and loyalty.
In other words, I’m looking for a true woman, whose degrees and diplomas haven’t stumped her sense of fashion and zest for living. Hopefully, we already like and appreciate the same things in life, and we’ll soon discover we think along the same lines.
I’m looking for someone (preferably) between 25 and 30, who’s already had the chance to taste a good chunk of life without becoming blasé or bitter, and did not fall prey to ’torschlusspanik’ either.
You could be petite or as tall as I am... as long as you are not ashamed to look at yourself in the mirror and your self-criticism rings true, that’s the most important thing.
Loudmouthed, bitchy, spoiled pampered brats, skanks and attention whores need not apply. If you don’t know how to properly dress, hold a fork, or spell, we probably won’t get along.
One more thing: I am not in a rush, and I don’t feel any pressure to settle down again. As much as I’d like to find a soul mate (yes, I know it’s a cliché!) Rome wasn’t built in a single day. So I’m fine with just meeting people and hanging out for a while.
With a marriage deteriorating over a long time, I have a void in my social networking; and Ottawa, sadly, can be a very cold town (both literally and figuratively)...
I’m aware of the fact that I’ve been out of the loop, so to speak, for a good while, so I need to relearn a few things, and I’d rather gain a good friend than a lousy relationship.”
Could you use your feminine intuition, knowledge of life and what you’ve been able to see about me, in order to smooth things a bit? I can’t think straight...”
AL
Your letter left me both amused and overwhelmed. You wrote to shock and your no-holds barred requirements for your ideal mate can be intimidating or a turn-off to prospective applicants.
Your letter left me both amused and overwhelmed. You wrote to shock and your no-holds barred requirements for your ideal mate can be intimidating or a turn-off to prospective applicants.
The woman you’re seeking must be devoid of warts on her skin and blemishes in her character, in a manner of speaking? Is there truly such perfection?
You, no doubt, are very intelligent. But something in between your words smacks of frustration and so much void that it’s probably best that you back off from dating for a while.
The issue at hand is not finding a woman so much as you finding yourself first. Get off the market, step back and pinpoint what’s been bugging you. Allow time to erase events that have left a bad taste in your mouth—which is now defining the person you’ve become.
You cannot sate the hunger in your soul—your being—by translating it into a rabid search for the perfect woman.
That woman, if you ever find her, should only be an add-on to your existing happiness and contentment, never as the fountainhead of it.
The success of your search will happen only when you see the pearl in a woman despite her grits and imperfections. Short of cloning yourself, be more down to earth and open your heart and mind to the fact that a beautiful wrapping can never be a guarantee of joy or stability.
Take it one day at a time. And when you’re ready, that woman of your dreams would just emerge—because your time for each other has come.

"I WILL" Pledge for my Birthday
I am using the "BIRTHDAY" card. If you can promise me one thing for the whole year, what will that be and why?
Example:
*I will eat ice cream with you if you suddenly crave for it.
*I will watch a flick with you.
*Babatukan kita pag nagpapakatanga ka nanaman.*I will have sex with you.
Tapos, I can use it once at valid lang until my next birthday. So, pag na-promise nyo, pwede ko kayo i-text the whole year pag biglang gusto ko mag-ice cream. Once lang naman. haha.
Game? Game!
