𝐋𝐀𝐓𝐇𝐀𝐋𝐀𝐈𝐍 | Pare-Parehong Paghihirap, Libo-Libong Pangarap

Sa loob ng paaralan, hindi iisa ang laban, ngunit sabay-sabay tayong humahakbang sa parehong daan.

Hindi lahat ay sabay-sabay natuto. Hindi lahat ay sabay-sabay nakaintindi. Hindi rin lahat ay sabay-sabay sumuko at bumangon. May kanya-kanya tayong paraan ng pag-usad — may mabagal, may mabilis, may halos gumagapan, ngunit lahat ay humahakbang.

Dumating ang mga pagsusulit na parang pare-pareho lang sa papel, pero hindi pare-pareho ang bigat sa bawat utak na sumasagot. Ang mga proyekto na para sa iba ay simpleng gawain, ngunit para sa iba ay gabi-gabing puyat at pagpupuyat ng pasensya. May mga araw na parang lumilipas lamang, ngunit sa loob ng bawat estudyante ay may tahimik na laban na hindi nakikita ng buong klase.

At ngayon, sa pagtatapos ng taon, magkatabi pa rin tayong nakatayo sa iisang dulo — hindi dahil pareho ang naging daan, kundi dahil pareho tayong may mga pangarap na hindi kayang bitawan.

Hindi pare-pareho ang naging lakas. Hindi pare-pareho ang naging laban. Ngunit pare-pareho ang patunay na tayong lahat, sa sarili nating paraan, nakaraos.

𝐅𝐋𝐀𝐒𝐇 𝐍𝐄𝐖𝐒 | Kahapon ang huling araw ng selebrasyon ng University Days ng Pampanga State University (PSU), ginanap mula noong Miyerkules dito rin naman sa Main Campus, na may temang Kapagmasusian king Pamanang Kapampangan Honorian: Pamagtaguyud king Kultura, Kaugalian, at Kabiasnan.
‎
‎Ika-labintatlo ng Mayo, Miyerkules, nang opisyal na buksan ang programa ng nasabing selebrasyon sa pamamagitan ng Sa-Galang Dala, Flores de Pampanga, at Yell Competition na nag pasigla sa damdamin at pananabik ng buong manonood sa Dr. Ernesto T. Nicdao Sports Center.
‎
‎Idinaos din naman ang isa sa pinakahihintay at kauna-unahang patimpalak na MX. Q&A Pampanga State University 2026, kabilang rito ang naging representate ng Mexico Campus na si Mx. Athena Claire na rumampa at nagpaalab ng hiyawan hanggang sa Top 8 Final list—sa kabilang banda naman ay ang pagsiklab ng hindi inaasahang grass fire sa likod ng nasabing Sports Center, at ang pagkawala din naman ng kuryente, dahilan para maantala ng kaunting oras ang programa—sa kabila man ng mga aberya, matagumpay pa ring natapos ang unang araw ng PSU University Days.
‎
‎Habang sa ikalawang araw naman ng nasabing selebrasyon ay ang pagpapatuloy din ng samu't-saring programa na nagpamalas sa malikhain at nakabibilib na talento ng bawat Honorians—kabilang dito ang tagisan ng Honorians Best Dance Crew, Sing Kagaling— na si Ms. Kim Jersey Sabate ang nagpamalas ng galing mula rin sa Mexico Campus. Narito rin ang Your Peys Sounds Familyaur, at ang inabangang Battle of the Bands na nagbigay aliw sa buong araw ng bawat estudyante.
‎
‎Sa pagtatapos ng University Days, itinampok ang isang makulay at masiglang Fun Run na nilahukan ng dagsa-dagsang estudyante mula sa iba't-ibang Departamento, at lalong higit ang inabangang Mr. And Ms. Pampanga State University 2026, kinatawanan ni Ms. Heart Gabriel, mula sa ating kampus.
‎
‎Tirik man ang araw at dama ang alinsangan sa buong selebrasyon ng University Days hindi pa rin nagpatinag ang mga estudyante upang tunay na damhin ang kasiyahan na hatid nito, sabay ng pagtaguyod ng Kultura, Kaugalian, at Kabihasnan ng ating pamanang Kapampangan.
