𝗜𝗖𝗬𝗠𝗜 | 𝗕𝗲𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗱 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗟𝗲𝗻𝘀: ‘𝗞𝘄𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗼𝗻𝗴 𝗧𝗶𝘁𝘀𝗲𝗿’ 𝗣𝗵𝗼𝘁𝗼𝘀

On October 1, 2026, what began as an idea to honor teachers became a collaborative production as we prepared and filmed “Kwentong Titser: A Teacher’s Day Special,” a short film dedicated to educators who continue to teach, guide, and influence the lives of their students.

The short film centers on the everyday experiences shared between teachers and students. Through a lighthearted and relatable narrative, it portrays different teacher personalities, familiar classroom situations, and humorous moments that students can easily recognize. More than simply showcasing classroom experiences, the film aims to highlight the stories and experiences behind every teacher.

The production was directed by Juliana P. De Leon, with Hazel Salvador and Mart Eiram E. Mondragon serving as co-directors and Ms. Kyla N. Bugarin taking on the lead role. Together, they worked to translate the concept into scenes that reflect the realities and memorable moments of classroom life.

Behind the camera, student members took on various responsibilities throughout the production. From acting and camera operation to technical production, photography, voice work, poetry, and drone operation, each member helped bring the project to life.

For us, preparing and producing “Kwentong Titser” was also an opportunity to reflect on our own experiences as students. The familiar jokes, classroom interactions, challenges, and small moments portrayed in the film reflect experiences that have become part of our lives as students.

We also extend our sincere appreciation to Prof. Noel D. Bulawan for his support and contributions in bringing this film to life.

“Kwentong Titser: A Teacher’s Day Special” serves as our tribute to educators who do more than deliver lessons. Through their guidance, patience, and dedication, teachers become part of their students’ stories, leaving lessons and memories that extend far beyond the classroom.

Behind every teacher is a story, and behind every story are students who remember.

𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗖𝗛𝗔𝗟𝗟𝗘𝗡𝗚𝗘 𝗕𝗘𝗚𝗜𝗡𝗦 𝗧𝗢𝗗𝗔𝗬...

The Midterm Examinations are more than just a measure of what we know. They are a test of our determination, preparation, and courage to face every challenge that comes our way. As we begin another chapter of our academic journey, let us remind ourselves that every lesson learned, every sleepless night, and every effort we make brings us one step closer to our goals.

Take a deep breath, trust the preparation you have put in, and believe in your ability to overcome whatever challenges lie ahead. Remember that success is not only about getting the answers right, but also about having the perseverance to keep going even when things get difficult.

As the Midterm Examinations begin, may we carry the courage to try our best, the patience to understand, and the determination to finish strong. Whatever the results may be, let this experience be another opportunity to learn, grow, and become better versions of ourselves.

"Believe in the process, trust your preparation, and never let a difficult moment define your limits."

Good luck and do your best, TUPians! 🍀

The 𝗜𝗻𝘀𝘁𝗶𝘁𝘂𝘁𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝗩𝗶𝘀𝘂𝗮𝗹 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗺𝘂𝗻𝗶𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 (𝗜𝗩𝗖) welcomed its freshmen through “𝗕𝗮𝗸𝗮𝘀: 𝗦𝗶𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗚𝘂𝗺𝗮𝘄𝗮?”, a welcoming event held on October 08, 2026, at the CAFA Atrium.

The event brought together the newest members of the IVC community for a day of creativity, connection, and new experiences. More than an introduction to college life, the event gave the freshmen an opportunity to meet fellow students, explore their creative interests, and become part of a growing community of visual communicators.

Adding to the experience were various Abu Booths, featuring student-led shops and creative products such as Pastilyarn?, Yarn and Hooks by Kath, and Henna. These booths gave students a chance to discover handmade items, support fellow creatives, and enjoy the welcoming atmosphere of the event.

For the freshmen, Bakas: Sining Gumawa? served as a meaningful start to their journey in IVC, reminding them that creativity is not only about what we create, but also about the connections and experiences we make along the way.

𝗔 𝗧𝗘𝗔𝗖𝗛𝗘𝗥’𝗦 𝗗𝗔𝗬 𝗦𝗣𝗘𝗖𝗜𝗔𝗟

Sa bawat classroom, may g**o na may sariling paraan ng pagtuturo.

May seryoso, may madaldal, may nakakatawa, may chill, at may mga g**ong hindi mo malilimutan dahil sa kanilang mga kakaibang ganap sa loob at labas ng klase.

Pero sa likod ng bawat tawa, bawat lesson, at bawat simpleng classroom moment, may kuwentong hindi agad nakikita.

Ang “𝗞𝘄𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗼𝗻𝗴 𝗧𝗶𝘁𝘀𝗲𝗿” ay isang maikling pelikula na sumasalamin sa mga pamilyar na karanasan ng mga estudyante kasama ang kanilang mga g**o. Isang kuwento na puno ng katatawanan, mga simpleng eksena sa paaralan, at mga sandaling maaaring pamilyar sa bawat estudyante.

Dahil minsan, ang g**o na nakikita natin sa harap ng klase ay may mas marami pang kuwentong dala kaysa sa ating inaakala.

Isang kuwento tungkol sa mga g**o, mga estudyante, at sa mga munting sandaling nagiging bahagi ng ating buhay sa paaralan.

Ano nga ba ang kuwento sa likod ng bawat titser?

𝗢𝗣𝗜𝗡𝗜𝗢𝗡 𝗙𝗘𝗔𝗧𝗨𝗥𝗘 | 𝗔𝗿𝗲 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗟𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗖𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗧𝗼𝗼?

Every day, the city moves at its own pace. People rush to catch a jeepney, wait for the next train, run to class, report to work, and make it home before another day begins. Everyone seems to have somewhere to go.

But in the middle of all that movement, have we ever stopped to ask ourselves where we are actually going?

Being lost does not always mean standing on a street corner without knowing which way to turn. Sometimes, we are lost in our own thoughts. We question whether we are taking the right course, choosing the right career, making the right decisions, or simply living the life we once imagined for ourselves.

For students, it can be the pressure of deadlines, grades, expectations, and the fear of falling behind. For workers, it can be the exhaustion of doing the same routine every day just to make ends meet. And for some people, being lost can be something no one else notices. They laugh, go to school, go to work, and continue with their day while quietly carrying struggles of their own.

Perhaps this is why the words “𝗔𝗿𝗲 𝗨 𝗟𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗖𝗶𝘁𝘆, 𝗧𝗼𝗼?” became more than just graffiti.

Painted by street artist “L.L.” on a waiting shed along España Boulevard near the University of Santo Tomas campus, the artwork turned an ordinary part of the city into a question. A question that did not demand an answer, but made people stop for a moment and think.

When the artwork was removed during the cleanup of vandalized surfaces following the September 21 protests, L.L. later shared a message saying, “𝗧𝗼𝗱𝗮𝘆, [𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗽𝘁𝗲𝗿] ?” is over.”

The artwork may no longer be there, but perhaps its question still is.

Because the truth is, cities can make us feel small. We are surrounded by thousands of people every day, yet it is possible to feel completely alone. We see people moving forward, achieving things, and seemingly knowing exactly what they want, while we are left wondering if we are already falling behind.

But maybe we should stop treating being lost as something shameful.

Not knowing what comes next does not mean we have failed. Changing our plans does not mean we have wasted our time. Taking a pause does not mean we are giving up. Sometimes, we simply need time to figure ourselves out.

The city will continue to rush. The traffic will remain heavy. The trains will keep moving, deadlines will keep coming, and tomorrow will arrive whether we are ready or not.

So, perhaps we can allow ourselves to stop for a while.

Look around.
Take a breath.

And ask the question again:
“𝗔𝗿𝗲 𝗨 𝗟𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗖𝗶𝘁𝘆, 𝗧𝗼𝗼?”

Maybe we are.

And maybe, just maybe, that is okay.

Because sometimes, getting lost is not the end of the journey. It is where we finally begin finding our way.
