This is the MASUNGI GEORESERVE and the photo was taken by
anonymous at masungi. Somebody says that it is Just a quick hour and a half
from Quezon City is Baras, Rizal, to
arrive at the Masungi Georeserve. Based on wikepedia search, Masungi
comes from the word “masungki”, which means “spiked”. This is fitting as one of
the prime attractions of this reserve is a 10 kilometer spine of limestone
formations.The 1,500+ hectare reserve is a haven for a variety of flora and
fauna and a fun adventure spot for hikers and ecotourists. Every Tuesday to
Saturday, at either 7:30 am or 1:00 pm, thrill-seekers can take the 3-4 hour
hike around the huge georeserve.Some sights to be seen are: Tatay and Nanay,
two limestone peaks, Yungib ni Ruben, a cave to seek shelter from the hot sun,
and Sapot, a web where you can lie down and view Laguna de Bay.However, keeping
Masungi safe for all the wildlife in it has been an uphill battle. “The
georeserve is an area we have been protecting for over fifteen years now.
Having to deal with a myriad of illegal loggers, quarries, and others, it has
been a challenge, but ultimately a meaningful and fulfilling one. Today, we are
excited to share our love for the place with you. We hope that you see
something special in it like we did.”

Isdaan Resturant
This photo was taken at Isdaan
Restaurant in Gerona, Tarlac is a place not only known for their
seafoods, dining, and atmosphere, but also smashing plates!
"Takysapo" is the term used when angry “Taksyapo” is an old
Kapampangan word for “Bwisit!” aksyapo is being given a whole new meaning. You
can destress yourself shouting Taksyapo at the top of your lungs simultaneously
throwing a plate or a mug (for a price of P10.00) at a wall. You can also
throw a TV for a higher price. It is a different experience to help you
release all of your stress, tension and anger. If you are finding a place to let your anger out and eat this is the best place to see!
University of the Philippines Diliman
Also, representing to you the “University of the Philippines
Diliman” (also referred to
as UPD, UP Diliman, or simply UP) is a coeducational, research state university located in Diliman, Quezon City, Philippines. It was established on
February 12, 1949 as the flagship
campus and seat of administration
of the University of the
Philippines System, the national
university of the Philippines. UP
Diliman is the fourth oldest constituent university of UP. The photo was taken
by a famous photographer “Anonymous”
A researcher have told us that “Delegated in 1939 as
the new campus of then University of the Philippines centered in Manila, the Diliman campus was created
from the 493-hectare area of the Diliman district of the then newly established Quezon City to address the increasing population
of the university and to acknowledge the demands to expand its roster of
academic programs. The outbreak of World War II hampered the development of the
area. Under the governance of UP President Bienvenido Gonzalez through a P13
million grant from the US-Philippines War Damage Commission, much of the UP was
transferred from its campus in Manila to the bigger Diliman campus and
delegated UP Diliman as the University of the Philippines System's seat of
administration. The transfer of the Oblation from Manila to Diliman marked the
campus's establishment on February 12, 1949.Between the 1970s and 1980s, UP
Diliman was the site of much student
activism. It was during these
times that student demonstrations and opposition against Marcos' administration became heavy
and aggressive. This was one of the precursors to Marcos' declaration of martial law in 1972.UP Diliman was formally
established as a constituent university on April 23, 1985 at the 976th Meeting
of the U.P. Board of Regents.It is the largest constituent university in the University of the Philippines System in terms of number of degree-granting
academic units, student population, faculty, and library resources. There are
27 degree-granting units on campus, accounting for 22,031 students
of which, 15,299 are undergraduates. UP Diliman had a complement of 1,526
full-time faculty in 2012, of whom 528 have doctoral degrees. Come and see the culture and education of the Philippines in this university.
