Are you channeling โ€œNew Year, New Me,โ€ armed with fresh notebooks, ambitious goals, and a resolution to finally stay on top of deadlines? Or is it more of a โ€œHere We Go Againโ€ vibe, embracing the chaos with a trusty coffee in hand and a prayer to survive the new semester?

Whether youโ€™re rebranding as the ultimate academic or just showing up and hoping for the best, share your first-day vibes below. Letโ€™s see how everyoneโ€™s starting off the new semester!

As the butterflies in your stomach rival the chaos of a surprise quiz, it all boils down to: Whatโ€™s your move when you finally spot your crush on the campus?

Will you keep it cool as you casually walk past them in the hallway, or will your inner monologue spiral into overdrive as you make eye contact with them? Maybe youโ€™ll muster the courage to strike up a conversation, or perhaps youโ€™ll stick to the stealthy approachโ€”lingering just close enough to make them notice you but not close enough to spark suspicion.

Whether itโ€™s a bold move, a clever excuse to borrow a pen, or a full-on awkward stumble into their path, we want to hear your game plan! With just ๐Ÿฎ ๐™™๐™–๐™ฎ๐™จ to go, share your cupid strategiesโ€”because nothing says back-to-school like a little romantic drama.

Is it an aesthetic coffee tumbler to combat the early morning lectures, a trusty planner to keep track of assignments and lectures, or perhaps a stash of emergency snacks to stave off hunger-induced meltdowns during long discussions?

On this day, we honor Mary, the humble servant of God whose faithful "yes" brought forth the Savior of the world. Chosen by God to bear His only Son, Mary embraced the profound mystery of her role with steadfast faith. As she held the infant Jesus, her heart overflowed with love and wonder, pondering the words of the shepherds who had witnessed heavenly hosts proclaiming the glory of her Child.

Maryโ€™s journey as the Mother of God was one of deep reflection, trust, and devotion. She treasured every moment and mystery in her heart, drawing closer to the infinite beauty of Godโ€™s plan. Her motherhood was not just a gift, but a mission to bring the light of Christ into the world.

Like her, may we learn to trust in Godโ€™s plan, cherish His grace, and allow His love to transform our hearts. Through the intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary, may we grow in faith and devotion, always striving to bring Christโ€™s light into the world.

Hereโ€™s to a year of growth, joy, and spaghetti-fueled dreams. Let the shenanigans begin!

We wish the brightest and happiest new year to you and your family, Purisimians!

Ah, the mystique of the New Yearโ€™s grape-eating ritual! Twelve grapes for twelve months of luck on finding "the one", or so the story goes!

But letโ€™s face itโ€”if last yearโ€™s grape strategy left you loveless and confusedโ€”like an overheated lechon paksiwโ€”perhaps itโ€™s time to crank up the grape game! Will you try 24, doubling your chances of finding โ€œthe oneโ€? Or maybe a daring 36, because who needs moderation when love is on the line? At this point, you might as well start a vineyard!

Welcome to the annual experiment known as "New Year, New Me," where we strut into January like weโ€™re the next big thing, but just how long does that glamorous transformation really last? Is it a week, a weekend, or do we crash before we even reach the countdown of January 1st?

With resolutions hanging in the balance, Iโ€™d bet we could find a solid survey that by day three, weโ€™re already questioning our sanity while nursing that post-party hangover.

So grab a pencil and start tallying your daysโ€”๐˜ฉ๐˜ฐ๐˜ธ ๐˜ญ๐˜ฐ๐˜ฏ๐˜จ ๐˜ฅ๐˜ฐ๐˜ฆ๐˜ด ๐˜ช๐˜ต ๐˜ต๐˜ข๐˜ฌ๐˜ฆ ๐˜ถ๐˜ฏ๐˜ต๐˜ช๐˜ญ ๐˜บ๐˜ฐ๐˜ถ ๐˜ง๐˜ช๐˜ฏ๐˜ฅ ๐˜บ๐˜ฐ๐˜ถ๐˜ณ๐˜ด๐˜ฆ๐˜ญ๐˜ง ๐˜ฅ๐˜ช๐˜ท๐˜ช๐˜ฏ๐˜จ ๐˜ฃ๐˜ข๐˜ค๐˜ฌ ๐˜ช๐˜ฏ๐˜ต๐˜ฐ ๐˜ต๐˜ฉ๐˜ฆ ๐˜ค๐˜ฐ๐˜ฎ๐˜ง๐˜ฐ๐˜ณ๐˜ต ๐˜ฐ๐˜ง ๐˜บ๐˜ฐ๐˜ถ๐˜ณ ๐˜ถ๐˜ด๐˜ถ๐˜ข๐˜ญ ๐˜ด๐˜ฆ๐˜ญ๐˜ง?

Rizal Day, observed every December 30, serves as a solemn reminder of the ultimate sacrifice made by Dr. Jose Rizal, executed in Bagumbayan (now Luneta) in 1896. His writings, especially Noli Me Tangere and El Filibusterismo, exposed the injustices of colonial rule, inspiring generations to fight for freedom and self-determination.

Rizalโ€™s profound vision for the Philippines wasnโ€™t merely about independenceโ€”it was about dignity, education, and a deep sense of national identity. As we remember his legacy, we are called to uphold his ideals and work toward a brighter, united future for our country.
