To everyone going through finals week, this season may feel heavyโ€”but itโ€™s also a step forward. Every effort, late night, and quiet sacrifice is part of your growth, even if it doesnโ€™t always show right away.

Take things one exam at a time. You donโ€™t have to have everything figured outโ€”just do your best with what you have right now. Progress doesnโ€™t always look loud; sometimes, itโ€™s simply showing up despite the pressure.

Good luck this finals week. May you find clarity, calm, and confidence in every test you take. Youโ€™ve come this farโ€”keep going. ๐Ÿ’š

Finals season can feel overwhelmingโ€”like everything is piling up all at once. The deadlines, the pressure, the quiet doubts in between.

But just like a cup of halo-halo, everything youโ€™re going through right now is a mixโ€”some parts heavy, some parts sweet, and all of it part of your journey.

Pause when you need to. Breathe. Take things one step at a time. And donโ€™t forget to give yourself small moments of comfortโ€”you deserve that, especially now.

Youโ€™ve made it this far, and that already says so much about your strength. Keep going, but be gentle with yourself along the way. ๐Ÿ’š

The event was made possible through the collaborative efforts of AB Psychology students and CITHM students, who actively facilitated the program and engaged with the participants throughout the activity.

The campaign commenced with an informative and insightful mental health talk delivered by Prof. Charie Jane Lao of the College of Arts, Sciences and Education faculty. Her discussion focused on mental health awareness, stress management, breathing techniques, and Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT), equipping families with practical strategies to better manage their well-being.

Following the discussion, an interactive session was held where CITHM and Psychology students facilitated hands-on activities such as graham ball making and paper briquette making. These activities not only encouraged creativity and skill-building but also fostered enjoyment and meaningful engagement among the residents of Sitio Manggahan.

This reminds us that children often express their needs and emotions through their behavior. What may seem as โ€œmisbehaviorโ€ is sometimes a reflection of how they are understood, guided, and responded to by the people around them. It highlights the importance of patience, awareness, and proper understanding when working with children in care settings.

In line with this, our second-year psychology students conducted ๐€๐ง ๐„๐ฑ๐ฉ๐ž๐ซ๐ข๐ฆ๐ž๐ง๐ญ๐š๐ฅ ๐’๐ญ๐ฎ๐๐ฒ ๐จ๐ง ๐ญ๐ก๐ž ๐„๐Ÿ๐Ÿ๐ž๐œ๐ญ๐ฌ ๐จ๐Ÿ ๐š ๐‚๐ก๐ข๐ฅ๐ ๐๐ž๐ก๐š๐ฏ๐ข๐จ๐ซ ๐Œ๐š๐ง๐š๐ ๐ž๐ฆ๐ž๐ง๐ญ ๐’๐ž๐ฆ๐ข๐ง๐š๐ซ ๐จ๐ง ๐ญ๐ก๐ž ๐’๐ž๐ฅ๐Ÿ-๐„๐Ÿ๐Ÿ๐ข๐œ๐š๐œ๐ฒ ๐จ๐Ÿ ๐’๐จ๐œ๐ข๐š๐ฅ ๐–๐จ๐ซ๐ค๐ž๐ซ๐ฌ ๐š๐ง๐ ๐Ž๐ซ๐ฉ๐ก๐š๐ง๐š๐ ๐ž ๐’๐ญ๐š๐Ÿ๐Ÿ at Bahay Pag-Asa in Biรฑan, Laguna.

Research shows that when self-control resources are depleted, people find it harder to maintain filters. As reported by Mead et al. (2009), honesty and self-disclosure are influenced by a personโ€™s level of self-control, which relies on limited cognitive resources. When individuals become mentally fatigued, these resources are depleted, reducing their ability to regulate behavior. Since lying or carefully managing responses requires more effort than telling the truth, fatigue often leads to greater spontaneity and authenticity.

In addition, late-night environments often involve fewer distractions and a more relaxed atmosphere, which further lowers psychological defenses. The combination of mental fatigue and a calm setting contributes to deeper, more honest conversationsโ€”explaining why late-night talks are often perceived as more authentic and emotionally open.
