My Life as an Undocumented Immigrant →
jastengco:
WOW. I read all 6 pages of this story and feel so inspired. It tells the story of an undocumented Pilipino-American (“Tago ng Tago” aka TNT in Tagalog) and his life journey: from being separated from his parents in the Philippines as a child, growing up with his Lolo and Lola in the Bay Area, and eventually becoming a Pulitzer Prize winning author. I was even more surprised when I...

Week 3 Reflections of a Student Teacher
It’s been two months since I started the Stanford Teacher Education Program (STEP). After 4 classes and student teaching in the summer, I must say I’m pretty proud of myself from enjoying working with middle schoolers to getting a 3.8 from Stanford. I realize that grades don’t matter as much anymore, I actually don’t care about it anymore. I learned that the grade will come...

gunlock:
There’s more to the Parisian than what looks like just three men ogling at a lady.
The three men in the far side of the painting have been positively identified to be Ariston Bautista, Juan Luna himself in a small self-portrait, and Dr. Jose Rizal—all prominent figures in the 1896 Philippine Revolution. These were men from affluent households and educated abroad via the...
