POV you’re watching Jayce and Viktor give their science presentation but one of them clearly pulled an all nighter

The University of the Philippines College of Fine Arts (CFA), where the College of Veterinary Medicine (CVM) used to be (CVM gradually moved to UP Los Baños in June 1983). CFA is the country's oldest educational institution in design and the arts. Its origins preceded the foundation of the university, dating back to the early 19th century when the Academia de Dibujo y Pintura, the country's first art school, was established on 8 October 1823, in Binondo, Manila, by Damian Domingo with the assistance of La Sociedad Económica de Amigos del Pais. Although it was temporarily closed in 1834, the Spanish government revived it in 1845 with the patronage of Queen Isabela II.

The reestablished Academia welcomed Spanish art professors who introduced European Classical art traditions. Notable artists like Simon Flores and Juan Luna emerged from this institution, later achieving international recognition. Flores garnered a silver medal at the Philadelphia Universal Exposition of 1876. Luna's Spoliarium won a gold medal at the 1884 Exposición Nacional de Bellas Artes en Madrid. Earlier, in 1881, Luna's La Muerte de Cleopatra won a silver medal. By 1891, the Academia transformed into the Escuela Superior de Pintura y Grabado.

In 1908, the Philippine Assembly, during the American colonial era, passed Act No. 1870, formally establishing the University of the Philippines. Fine Arts became one of the university's original founding units alongside the Philippine General Hospital and the College of Agriculture.

Over the years, CFA has produced at least 11 National Artists for the Visual Arts: Fernando Amorsolo (Painting, 1972), Guillermo Tolentino (Sculpture, 1973), Carlos Francisco (Painting, 1973), Napoleon Abueva (Sculpture, 1976), Vicente Manansala (Painting, 1981), Cesar Legaspi (Painting, 1990), José Joya Jr. (Painting, 2003), Abdulmari Imao (Sculpture, 2006), Benedicto Cabrera (Painting, 2006), Federico Alcuaz (Painting, Sculpture, and Mixed Media, 2009), and Larry Alcala (Comics, 2018). CFA’s history not only reflects the evolution of the University of the Philippines but also mirrors transformations of Philippine art and art education in the country.

“You okay, Joel?”

“ ...and I find myself in a room full of kids taking their College Boards. I'm over three hours late. I've got two minutes to take the whole test. I've just made a terrible mistake. I'll never get to college. My life is ruined.” -

Still thinking about Risky Business lol. Let’s just say that with the SATs and all, and my half-baked unrealistic dreams of Ivy League colleges officially going out the window, a lot of his situations are lookin’ pretty relatable at the moment 🥲

you know how my display name is straight up local catboy even though im outright terrified of cats. well this week a miracle happened: ive interacted with a cat for once?!?!?!?!

you see i was at campus this week and the college cat started chasing me everywhere and even waited for me as i went to the bathroom and i was so scared😭 as i got out of that bathroom I was cornered girl was already camping outside... I thought i was going to faint to die but then turns out she was running after me because she wanted to rub herself on my legs???😭😭

it struck a soft spot in my heart because she reminded me of my dog because she does the same thing (plus bonus points my dog is black and the cat was a black cat so. double hit) and here's the miracle... I crouch and talk to her🫣🫣 this sounds very simple but i usually keep cats at a distance since they terrify me so this this was a very intense moment for me fr

so yes display name local catboy who also happens to be terrified of cats despite that display name interacts with cat for once in his life

The fact that Jaden is the only one on the IPC banlist makes me feel like he's the reason the banlist even exists XD

Also how does one evade the banlist 17 times and counting?

OK TO BE FAIR MAYBE "EVADING" IS TOO STRONG A WORD FOR WHAT JADEN'S DOING. which is really just "he keeps walking in and being served because Paradox doesn't actually hold as much authority over IPC's customer base as he acts like he has, and also the rest of IPC's staff does Not care enough to tell Jaden to get out" LMAO... doesnt stop syrus from getting worked up about it though!! jay what if this counts as trespassing!!!! (it doesnt)

[jaden is definitely the sole reason the 'banlist' exists, though, for sure. ok i guess banlist is also too strong a word. "paradox's shitlist" is probably better JHDJFGSDF]

would Johnny Cage become a rogue if left in Gotham unattended for more than a day, or would he pretend to be an old buddy of Brucie Wayne?

Bold of yall to assume they don't know eachother

i havent even read enough gl to justify the feelings and emotions i have about kyle i just have the lovers heart and also something wrong with me. and my projection. in my mind he's just like me. and he would have loved college vending machine frozen cheeseburger and heating it up in the microwave at 1 in the morning because he was bored and didn't want to work on a drawing assignment on 20" x 30" paper that was due tomorrow in his freshman year. he would have loved going to the club to push off finals work that's creating the worst stress known to man in his brain. and he would love to annoy the fuck out of his roommate when high and avoiding homework on a saturday.

past me would be rolling in her fucking grave if she found out that present me is the kind of math nerd who loves doing calculus

[llycaons]

now that I'm actively looking into decoration and artwork for my living space I'm like, confronted with the idea that people even put price tags on art. not that artists shouldn't be paid, but the massive subjectivity between different audience members renders the process kind of bizarre. that piece could really speak to you or be a very personal addition or add so much character to your place, which is literally priceless, like this is something that speak to your soul and will live inside of you! or it could be a completely forgettable picture that someone doesn't look twice at. and they're both the same price! unreal
