I have cherished my years of stay in LB... and up to this moment I have been grateful of the experience. Compared to my friends who studied in the city, I realized that being molded by UPLB somehow brought the (much and more) street-smart side of me...
I find happiness in simply hanging around a friend's house, mixing our GINs with pomelo or other juices (this becomes a skill though)... and if you're a dormer or u stay as a border, and if you run out of money NOODLES and CANNED GOODS can be your good friends, and also along the way you would eventually meet your bestfriends forever in LB... going to class without taking a bath... name it...hehee!
What are your UPLB experiences???

The elbi experience is a unique adventure. Although I wasn't into GinPom or Gin with chocolate, I still enjoyed the happenings at UPLB. The org gimiks, cheating in classes, hanging out with my brods and sisses, encounter with snakes on your way to class, open house, late nights at computer shops, thesis/manuscript dilemma... everything I need to know, I learned in UPLB.

True. The thing is, during our time, everything was way simple. :) We tended to be practical, and we were made to be great drinkers. :)
