HIGIT SA USAPIN NG KASAYSAYAN, ITO AY USAPIN NG KASALUKUYAN.

Mahigit isang siglo na ang nakalipas mula nang makalaya ang Pilipinas mula sa kolonyal na paghahari ng Espanya. Taun-taon nating itinataas ang watawat at ginugunita ang sakripisyo ng mga bayaning nagbuwis ng buhay para sa bayan. Ngunit sa gitna ng mga usaping bumabalot sa bansa ngayon, nananatiling mahalagang tanungin:

Buhay nga ba ang saysay ng kalayaan kung ang demokrasyang kaakibat nito’y hindi iginagalang?

Sa mga nagdaang buwan, nasaksihan ng mamamayan ang kaganapan patungkol sa pagpapatalsik kay Bise Presidente Sara Duterte na siyang nagdulot ng kaguluhan sa pagitan ng mayorya at minorya sa senado. Ang mga pangyayaring mas nagpatambol sa usaping ito tulad na lamang ng naging sagutan nina Senador Pangilinan at Padilla, ang habulang pag-aresto kay Senador Dela Rosa, ang hindi pagdalo ng mayorya sa mga pagpupulong at maging ang nakalilitong pagpapalit-palit ng pinuno ay ilan lamang sa mga patunay ng pambabastos sa diwa ng demokrasya sa bansa. Ang sariling pamahalaang ipinaglaban noon ay nagiging katawa-tawa, tila parang sirko ang senado.

At dahil mistulang ang mga nakaupo mismo ang lumalapastangan, ang pag-asa ng demokrasya ay nasa mga mamamayang handang makialam. Ito ay pakikialam sa pamamagitan ng paggamit ng edukasyon upang gawing malay ang sarili at kapwa patungkol sa proseso ng impeachment trials at paghahalal ng pinuno sa senado, pagsali sa mga makabuluhang diskusyon at mga kilos protesta upang panagutin ang mga may sala, at higit sa lahat ay pagpaparehistro nang sagayon ay makaboto ng mga maaasahang kandidato.

Malinaw na ang demokrasya ay hindi lamang nasusukat sa pagkakaroon ng teritoryo at sariling pamahalaan, kundi sa kakayahan ng mga opisyal na manindigan, harapin at respetuhin ang hatol ng batas habang kasangga ang mapanghamon at matalinong pakikialam ng bawat mamamayang Pilipino.

Ngayong ika-128 Araw ng Kalayaan, hindi sapat na alalahanin lamang ang mga tagumpay ng nakaraan. Higit kailanman, kinakailangan nating pangalagaan ang mga kalayaang ipinaglaban para sa atin at tiyaking ang bawat isa sa atin, opisyal man o simpleng mamamayan ay ginagampanan ang ating papel sa lipunan.

Mula sa loob ng pamantasan hanggang sa mas malawak na sambayanan, kaisa ang UPLB Com Arts Society sa paggiit ng katotohanan, pananagutan, at makabuluhang pakikilahok ng mamamayan sa demokratikong proseso.

Sapagkat ang kalayaan ay hindi lamang ipinagdiriwang. Ito ay araw-araw na ipinaglalaban.

✨Cris Cruz looking good, Cris Cruz feeling fine, because I can’t lose when I’m Cris Cruz.✨

Happy birthday to the pinakamasipag, pinakamaalaga, pinakagalante, pinakasoft-spoken, most endearing, most hardworking, stariray ng taon, may pinakamaputing ngipin, setter nung elem, libero nung high school, at endlessly supportive na si Papsh Cris!! 🎉💌

This past year has been such a huge achievement for you and it’s honestly inspiring to witness everything you’ve worked so hard for, finally pay off. We’ll always appreciate how you create a space that feels lighter and less intimidating. Your guidance, patience, and warmth genuinely /gen mean the world — the universe, rather — to us. 🌍💫

Thank you for your utmost dedication and support, we've always felt your presence in any ways that we wanted to be seen.

🍽️ ihanda na ang plato't kutsara dahil bukas na ang karinderya (EATERY) — happy theo day!

pancit para sa mahabang buhay, pero secured naman na ang longevity. consistently maganda ang fits, elite ang music taste, at laging tama ang takes. you move through life like you already know the judges are watching, and somehow the scores are always tens across the board.

parang hotdog at marshmallow na nakatusok sa puno ng saging, mukhang chaotic sa unang tingin, pero somehow laging hinahanap-hanap sa handaan. ganun si theo sa sok: kapag nandiyan, mas mataas ang energy at mas masaya.

wishing you a very special year! mas special pa sa special halo-halo (may ganun ba sa birthdayan???) good news, great moments, zero l's and everything that you've been manifesting finally landing in your inbox

no flop eras this year 🥳

Aegyo~Aegyompsal 🥓

Happy, happy birthday to SOK’s BALL of sunshine, THE DIVA who makes everything look effortless. Whether it’s costume and makeup or just your presence in a room, you have this way of bringing life into spaces without even trying. 😁

I hope you find a kind of happiness that feels real and grounding. You give so much light to the people around you, and I hope that same warmth finds its way back to you in ways that truly matter.🌟

You’ve grown into someone who not only shines but also makes space for others to shine, and that’s something not everyone can do. I hope the Society gives back the same kindness and quirkiness that you so freely share. ✨

Always here for you,
�Nongch and Keps 🍒

One day, many years ago, a smile with dimples deep enough to make everyone fold instantly and a person whose presence alone can make even the most stressful days feel lighter was born into this world.

Happiest birthday, Nang Ysa 🧸

You have always had this warmth that naturally draws people in — maybe it’s your contagious smile, the way you always show up, or simply the care you give so effortlessly to everyone around you. Your warmth is something that people will always remember you by, we swear by that. Thank you for being the most caring and thoughtful! You're literally the sweetest mama bear ever! Thank you for always making us seen.

To our ever-reliable Stage Manager Ysa, the Society is lucky to witness your growth, dedication, and hard work. We hope this year gives you more reasons to feel proud of yourself and everything you do. Your silly and whimsical little family will always be here, giving you the warmest and biggest hugs.

We look forward to spending more time with you and getting to know you more. I hope we get to eat burgers soon and drink our little drinks soon! We love you, nang Ysa!

Always rooting for you,
Your Children, CJ 🍒 & Kien 🥞

To the prettiest, loveliest, go-getter, and most hardworking ever, happy birthday, Nanang's unica hija and Nak's only Leenang! 💋

Everyone sees how passionate you are, may it be on stage, in front of house, or in the dressing room, but only some know the sacrifices you need to make just to balance everything. Despite everything, you never fail to show up when you're needed!

Our only wish is that you feel fulfilled with everything you do and take meaning breaks once in a while because we know that the world will never stop opening the doors of opportunities for you. Keep chasing things that you love, and don't be afraid to say 'no' to things that do not serve you.

You pour not only effort but also heart into your work, and the Society is deeply grateful to have someone as dedicated, dependable, and driven as you.

We’ll always be closest to the stage where you shine the brightest. 🎭

With much love and admiration,
Nanang 💋 and DarNak 🌠
