I dream of becoming a human rights lawyer fighting for people who have been denied access to justice. Growing up, to the annoyance of some people around me, I have always found myself standing up for what's right and speaking out against what's wrong no matter how powerful the enemy may be. As such, I believe being a lawyer, one who is like the lawyer shown in the picture above, is the most loving option for me since being a lawyer would allow me to do what brings me deep gladness and purpose and also serve the community and country that is in dire need of more people to uphold justice.

As a history major, we have a special connection to the past because people look to the experts of our course (the historians) to "authenticate" and learn about what already had happened. In this time where, misinformation is rampant, some historical facts are now being overwritten by distorted, or sometimes, completely different versions of the truth. I will do my utmost to not only fight against these untruths, but to fight them using the undeniable facts, especially connected to the ones that the fake news are trying to overwrite.

The classes in AB Communication have taught me that understanding the human aspect when formulating a message is just as important, and sometimes even more important than the actual broadcast. I hope to one day become an effective Public Relations communicator who does her best to understand and shed light on the often silenced or overlooked narratives. This means being careful with the messages embedded in the content I create, and also taking extra steps to learn more about the advocacy/ community/ stakeholders involved. - Shariz Ngo  [THEO 13-N2]

I want to be an actuarial someday. Although the job doesn't necessarily have to deal with people every single day, my goal of taking concrete action is to practice my intentionality when it comes to listening to other people. As a student, it can start with reaching out to my classmates, listening to their stories, and scheduling a meal together to know them more. As I grow older, this can be applied to my colleagues, and the people I am working with. They may be experiencing a difficult time or a happy moment in their life and I can be the one they can lean on or simply talk to about the ups and downs of their life.

As a future engineer, I want to embrace the more loving choice in the engineering solutions that I will make towards sustainable development. Specifically, I see myself participating in doing research and development of various devices and applications that can help the marginalized in alleviating their suffering and improving their lives.

I, personally would want to serve in the public health sector. Public health professionals would be able to work on a variety of initiatives and projects that have a direct impact on people's lives. Individuals who work in the public health sector have a significant impact on the health and well-being of their community and beyond.

While still indecisive about my future plans, I know my worries come from my insecurities in terms of competence. To do my best, and give my most, I need to be able to be skilled and hardworking enough to achieve these dreams and goals.

Teaching is an experience like no other. It is a vocation wherein you are able to extend your knowledge to others, but it also allows you to learn from a new perspective from the students. I enjoy being able to converse in such a way wherein I am left with a new perspective and insight. I can leave my comfort zone via analyzing these new perspectives and seeing if my old paradigm is still applicable.

I'm an international relations major and I've always wanted to critically assess the intersection of power, politics, and culture from a global perspective. Overtime, I realized that many of the decisions of individuals or institutions that lead to negative outcomes are always borne out of personal interest. Because of this, power is used as a tool to harm many vulnerable individuals in society. This has pushed me to pursue an interest in legal studies, as this is one way inequality can be bridged. I intend to use my talents and skills of analysis, critical thinking, and debate into things that concretely impact the world. I want to push for a world that creates decisions not just out of interest, but also considers principles and recognizes the inherent human dignity of everyone. While the problem I aim to address is global, systemic, and multi-layered, I can make a positive impact in my life one case at a time. - Bernard Errol M. Advincula [THEO 13-M]

Being an AB Communication student and a Mental Health Advocate from my previous school, I continue to be a friend to everyone by spreading joy and empathy to others. By being friends and getting to know others I am able to identify the more loving option for every scenario and understand how I could really help everyone I meet. What better way to love others by giving them your time and effort.

I want to be someone who would go out of his way to help out those who are less fortunate. As a person who is inclined in Mathematics, one way I can do this is by helping out the people around me in their troubles in the field -Elias Marcella (Theo 13-D)

As an EcE major, I could choose a career that is dedicated to providing energy systems for the poor. This is because most appliances require an electrical power source to operate which could be hard to access for people who live in rural and less urbanized areas. With renewable energy sources that are affordable, easy to setup and use such as solar power, people would have easier access to electrical energy that would power up various appliances that could help them live a better life. - Justine Matthew Sison [THEO13-D]
