khallareINQ 🤣 ang daming pedeng ianalyze. Wala na ba talaga ha UP.

khallareINQ huh? why KD? why not our local teleseryes and movies, susme, we need younger outputs on ours muna; yung horror, nagiging comedy, yung action nagiging musical; yung drama nagiging declamation contest.. naman...

khallareINQ Walang masama ibang iba talaga yun gawa nila and maraming matutunan yun mga kukuha ng elective na yun. Ka tatapos lang ng Familiar Wife iba yun atake ng mga writers and director dun.

khallareINQ Seriously?!! Anyare, UP?

khallareINQ It's mass comm. I think as an elective it is appropriate... given the phenomenon it has created in pop culture. In the same way as I think there shld be manga or anime subjects. Practicality and real-life analysis instead of the usual nebulous, general subjects.

khallareINQ Ka gaguhan

khallareINQ I have watched one k drama only.. Empress Ki..and ti my surprise, it's really good and fast-paced.. our film industry could learn from their techniques.. our future film makers could always learn more from other countries, after all, there's no harm exploring best practices.

khallareINQ UP in a nutshell

khallareINQ Huh? Analysis of K-Drama? UP? Are you serious?

khallareINQ And how will that will help you get a job

khallareINQ Analysis of k-drama

khallareINQ I'm disinterested!

khallareINQ yikes

Online classes: What the country will need to make them happenThe Department of Education recently postponed the class opening for the upcoming school year to October 2020. What must be in place for online classes to work? Working internet would be a start! I mean, if you have PLDT you can be sure to have much downtime and stopping of connection. The internet in the Philippines is SUPER BAD ... let them fix that first. They postponed and provided no alternatives. The kids can now continue to devote their time playing computer games from dusk 'til dawn. Land of covid, land of unemployed, land of out of school youths, this is the Philippines now.

Private schools 'ready' for August 24 opening of classes despite DepEd shiftWhile this may be true, there should be uniformity in all schools under DepEd. It seems callous when you say private schools are different & that different rules apply to them. What is the message being given to the children? Yung isa kasi may pambayad, yung isa wala? In my opinion, the statement of private schools that they are so ready to start the SY this August is selfish. They did not even empathize with public schools while they are facing the same challenge, except that their students have money/resources that's right we are prepared...
