    maybe you can knock some more sense into her.
    some men prefer to do the running after, and not the running from.

    Scholar does not mean they have ambition . . 2 of my friends / batch mate who graduated with “laude” end up as a college professor because they are good at theory ( no fun intended)

    The rest who are the happy go lucky folks ( street smart) makes it to a higher post in a muti national company.

    Still a good catch for her I guess if it happens.

    well,
    a number of our batch mates are now top honchoes in their industry of choice.
    our valedictorian was a scholarly bookwarm back then,
    the other was a frequent visitor at the principal's office,
    and a middle-of-the-roader is also at the top of his industry.

    so i guess,
    "it takes all kinds".

    in screening applicants,
    the extracullicular activities are as important as the academics.

    Scholar ako and I have a high post in a multinational company. So if we’re comparing anecdotal notes, then it goes either way.

    Anecdotally, a number of our professors in college were scholars. Their primary sources of income is still their businesses or jobs. They consider teaching as "giving back."

    A lot of college professors consider teaching as their "sideline." Universities want them to teach since they have industry experience and teaching keeps them sharp.

    Its also a way for some of them to hire the best students after college.

    Great achievements Jut703

    Different industry maybe skewed in either way, most of my batch mate friends are in the same nano tech industry . . Nature has its way of balancing things I guess like what Doc says “it takes all kinds”

    My college days are a balanced of fun and number in the cards, and has a lot of extra curricular.

    Medyo in a position to be more into RSU + bonus.

    Some of my previous boss who retire and enjoy their life go into part time teaching in the university.

    They give me a good insight come NCG (new college grad) intake.

    We talk almost everyday naman and I told her to let men do the chasing. Something as basic as if she sends the last message and the guy doesn't reply or seen zone lang, then do NOT follow up anymore. Wait for him to message her again. Hindi makatiis e! Thank God I don't have or lose interest in men that don't give me a lot of attention, kaya I gave up on getting back together with crush kasi yung dating intensity namin hindi na bumalik (and I don't blame him at all because I hurt him already)

    that's true pero mostly if a person is a scholar it means they are used to pressure (?) at a young age kasi they have to maintain their grades to keep the scholarship. That is a good trait to have in the real world. I have officemates na konting pressure lang resign na. I am not kidding, marami na ko encounter na hindi tumatagal ng one month.

    Yung Atenean that my friend is in love with, he comes from a lower middle class background but he has achieved so much in his career na, na elevate na niya standard of living niya, kaya nasabi kong masipag at may ambition. He has been all over the world for work (needless to say he has a good job hehe) Impressive yun.

    I had several professors that are well off (1% level) US educated, recognizable surnames. It's true, they teach out of passion or something to do after retirement. Isn't it ang stereotype kapag arts or educ na course mga rich kids kasi walang pera sa ganyan na courses.

    Si Crush was invited to teach pero he declined, I joked na, dami ko na nga competition sa office, pati ba naman sa school hahaha!

    It's getting worse My friend accepted an IG request from a stranger - it's a German working in the US. I told her that is probably a scam. She said she's hoping he is not. OMG.

    She told me I should open an IG account and I told her it'll be useless since I don't even post on FB. She said I will probably change when I become a mother (it's true because I know so many women who NEVER posted on FB, nung nagka anak almost daily na) She managed to make the conversation about kids again She's excited na daw for when we will be posting about our kids I was never like that naman, with crush kasi, it's him, it's his body that I want, hindi ko naman iniisip anak LOL. It seems like it's the thought of getting pregnant that turns her on

    I'm going to lose my mind na ata. I don't even know how I feel anymore. I'm bored. I'm sad. I'm longing for crush physically. I want to devour him. I'm obsessed. BIGLAAN! Where did this come from?!?! It's probably my fcking hormones because I cannot explain it.

    Reading those threads in reddit made me feel worse pa, like what it happening to the world? Moral degeneration na (now that's another story)

    Whenever I feel like this I would go out of the house and run, run, and run until I am too exhausted. How can I do that now? I am in such bad shape. Ever since I had covid, I don't breathe as well anymore.
