Day 4

This day would be more interesting if I had some place to go or someone to chat with. -checks YM list-

Gimmicks, anyone? :))

Watching the last episodes of ROD has taken its toll on my eyes, I think. Since it isn't as cool as Death Note or Code Geass (Sorry, ROD fans.), I'll just continue watching later. I'm only three episodes from finishing the entire series.

I checked my mail and someone in the pisaydiliman group (in Multiply) posted something about a rivalry between Pisay and Kisay/Que Sci. Since I had nothing to do, I checked the issue out. All that I managed uncover was a comment page for Pisay (in Wikimapia) where people from both factions badmouthed each other.

For one, I didn't even know that a rivalry between Pisay and Kisay existed. Actually, I'm not even sure if this is anything serious. From the looks of the comments, the Kisay people (or whoever posted the "Pisay students suck!" comments [they mainly attacked the students instead of the school]) were probably bored and they didn't have anything better to do. However, if their intention was to attack the school and its students, they did not do a very good job. For instance, their arguments are too shallow and one-sided.

This "rivalry" is extremely immature and childish. I don't see why we should compare both schools or its students. You can't say that all Pisay students are nerds or geeks or dorks. (There will always be geeks or nerds or dorks in any school.) You also can't assume that all students from Kisay post poisonous comments on the internet just to look for trouble. (I know a few students/graduates from Kisay and they are all decent people.)

Pisay people and Kisay people are smart (perhaps even brilliant). No questions about that. However, it's about time those people who keep on badmouthing each other stop this childish act and start acting like the smart people they really are.
