End of the World???


I really don't believe in this prophecy.  It's a false prophecy.  No one can declare when will the earth ends.  Someone courts me and asks me when will I answer him.  I said just wait.  But he says the end of the world is near, when will you answer me.  It annoys me, you know.

Sudden Tuition Increase



How these next several months play out will determine whether or not these institutions make it or not. The most sensitive question is whether or not they can keep their students, because these institutions are so tuition-driven.
-David Warren

BTW, I have read this article: 12 Negros Occidental schools to hike tuition
Many of our classmates are complaining about the sudden tuition increase of our program.  I got shock hearing that most of them are having 40k tuition.  But my tuition is only 34k.  I also have one friend who has units enrolled like mine but she has 37k tuition.  She wanted to complain about it, but until now she hasn't.  I don't know why but I suggest she should see the accounting office and ask about it.

There's no such thing as free public WiFi with password.
We're in private school so we must expect that our tuition will always be high, but seriously where does our money go?  I can't really see my tuition worth it when I see damaged projectors, damaged computer units, damaged Cisco equipment  etc.  But most of all, the so-called Free Wi-Fi campus when most of its wi-fi have passwords.  There are some free wi-fi around the university but they don't seem to work.  We're IT, and our school is one of the most prestigious school when it comes to IT education but how can we practice and perform our tasks well when some of the facilities are not working?

I'm just expressing my feelings as a student.  If I'm not doing this, it's like I don't seem to care. :)

A SAP Oriented University


Last November 21, 2012, I received my first SAP Business One certificate.  I'm glad to hear from our instructors that being a SAP certified can help you a lot especially when finding a job.  Most companies right now, here and abroad, are already SAP oriented.  So this is a great help for me after graduation or maybe even for OJT.

My Thoughts About The Official Seal of UNO-R College of Information Technology






"At first, I don't really like our college logo because it's plain simple."




This is the official seal of the College of Information Technology in the University of Negros Occidental-Recoletos.  Enrolling in this college was never my plan.  I wanted to pursue Fine Arts, but I thought there's no course like that in this island.  Besides, the tuition itself was too expensive.  So, I ended up in IT.  At first, I don't really like our college logo because it's plain simple.  Unlike in any colleges in the university, our college logo was the simplest of all.  But when I knew the meaning of each elements that composes it, I started to like it and be proud of it.

The logo consists of the word CIT.  Can you spot the "CIT" word inside?  If you have, you have keen eyesight, hahah!  It also consists of a circuitry and a computer which we all know represents the IT world.  There's also a book which I think presents knowledge or wisdom and a heart with flame and a piercing arrow which presents Christianity.  Even if we're into technology, we still don't forget that Christ is the center of our lives.  You can also see sugarcanes around it which represents the sugar industry of Negros Occidental.  The star on the center, I forgot the meaning of it, hahah!  But it has an important meaning too.  Why would they put it there when there's no significance in it, right?

Soar High, InfoTech Falcon!

"Faith Seeking Knowledge"


We have another symbol.  It's the Falcon.  It is our college mascot.  As you can see the ribbon on it's beak says "Fides Querens Intellectum", it means Faith Seeking Knowledge.  For me, it means that  with faith, you can gain knowledge.  What is knowledge without faith, right?  For me, the falcon represents the ITs as it stands for the future of the world.  The silver outline of the Falcon is our official college color.  Silver represents the color of technology.  But I don't really know because most of the time, we use black.  Sometimes, because we can't find gray or silver shirts for events, we use black.  I prefer black because it's cooler and more comfortable to wear (in shirts) than gray.  Gray makes me sweaty, hahah!  Anyway, for those who find my writings about the symbols incorrect, I'm willing to accept corrections or maybe even criticisms.  Most of my writings are here are just my opinions and ideas.  Whatever comes on my mind, I write it down immediately.  :)
