“La Salle- the future begins here”, this is what the college brochure stated to entice us students into entering the portals of De La Salle University (DLSU). Now I am slowly realizing that this statement is not just an advertising line but a truth. Now I really see that my future begins in this university.
DLSU is one of the best universities in the Philippines if not the best. It has its own very rich University Athletic Association of the Philippines (UAAP) history with Ren-Ren Ritualo knocking down a triple during the dying seconds of the UAAP finals against University of Santo Tomas (UST) that gave way to DLSU’s four feat championship. JV Casio, also a green archer, knocked down a high-looping three point shot during the last seconds of play of last year’s UAAP finals against heavily favored Far Eastern University (FEU).

DLSU, the most technological advance university in the country is equipped with Integrated Virtual Learning Environment (IVLE). Its version 7 IVLE system is the most advance in the country. To top this, it has the most hassle-free online enrollment, where everything is computerized. I would often hear my Ateneo-enrolled brother complaining about his enrollment, but he would never hear me complain about mine. No need to wake up early during enrollment, and no need to line up. It’s that easy.

When Ateneo de Manila University (ADMU) was still applying for a level 4 PAASCU accreditation, DLSU has already been enjoying its status. The university is also a recognized Commission on Higher Education (CHED) Center of Excellence in courses such as Engineering, Computer Studies, Science, Accounting, and in Business. This simply means that the CHED has full confidence and trust in the university thus it gives DLSU full autonomy in running the school. It gives the school free reign in choosing the courses it offers to select the teachers to teach it. It allows the school to set the standards without outside intervention.

I, myself, am a student of DLSU, and I am proud to be one. Before I entered in DLSU, I was brought up by my family to think that DLSU is a university for the rich and for the elite, a class I do not belong to. No one from my family studied in DLSU. My brother is now studying at Ateneo de Manila University (ADMU). My mother is a graduate of UST, while my father is a graduate of University of East (UE). From my mother’s side, my aunts and uncles are either graduates of UST or the University of the Philippines (UP), and from my father’s side, one is either a graduate of UE or ADMU. Ateneo, my dream school, rejected my application; but DLSU accepted me as one of their few scholars, in fact a SFA scholar. I was left alone with no other choices. I was forced to study in DLSU. But now I begin to see God’s reason why.

Lasallians being dumb is only a misconception. During my first six months of study in DLSU, I had already proven DLSU to be a good university. Misconception dictates that DLSU is full of idiots and morons. I would say that all schools have their own idiots and morons. All schools also have their own geeks and nerds. All schools have their Isaac Newtons or Albert Einsteins. So what is one Juan Tamad compared to hundreds of Newtons who graduate from DLSU. There are many La Salle alumni who didn’t do well during their college years, but are extraordinary in the real world. The values they got form DLSU sure helped them a lot.

DLSU is known for accepting more students than the UP and ADMU, thus other universities laugh at it because it lowered its standard. I believe that it does accept more students during application period because it offers more courses. It also believes that grades are not the sole basis to which a student is to be judged. It believes that it can mold students to become good citizens through education. This is why it gives more students the chance to prove themselves . Also because of DLSU’s trimester system, it can accommodate more students.

Lastly, society dictates us that DLSU are only for the elite and Lasallians are slow-learners. I beg to disagree. La Salle is a university not only for the elite, but also for the people from different sectors. I know some scholars who are coming from the middle-class and some from the lower-classes. Lasallians are not slow-learners, rather they are fast learners. With our trimester system, everything is fast-paced. We learn things in as short as 14 weeks, minus two weeks for finals and midterm examinations. Compare that to five months of studying a single subject in other universities. And when our graduates took the professional board exam, the results are indeed superb as they not only pass the exam but excel in them. We produce quality graduates in less the amount of time that other schools produce their students; and that is what I call efficiency. It only proves that Lasallians are indeed fast-learners.

DLSU for me is a highly competitive school, 18 units seems a lot, but not all people can handle the pressure of a trimester system and high-caliber, demanding professors. You really need to be competitive and study hard in order to survive. Even though, DLSU accepts more students during application period, it is very difficult to stay in. You have to be studying in La Salle to know these things. Trust me; it is really hard when you are studying in DLSU-main.

Lasalle has its own identity. We must not look at one error and generalize it as a whole. Often times, we look at our green archer players as representatives of DLSU. They are not the only people enrolled in DLSU. Why look at them as representatives of DLSU? Yes, they are part of DLSU; but they are not DLSU. We may look at them as people who only plays college basketball and don’t study, but please… don’t generalize them. There are players who also do well in their respective courses. Some of them are even Dean’s Lister. I believe that La Salle isn’t all basketball, for there are basketball players who didn’t get their college diplomas. The latest controversy tells us that DLSU kicked out two players from its basketball team for faking PEPTCR test. That only proves us that DLSU has high standards academically.

I love DLSU not because of its UAAP trophies, not because of its high tech equipments, learning materials and air-conditioned room, not because of its IVLE, not because of the hassle-free online enrollment, not because of the E-purse, and not because of the models and celebrities that roam around the campus. These things are the first things we observed when we first entered La Salle, but they are not that important for me. They are good for nothing.

I love DLSU because it teaches me to become a Christian achiever for God and Country and to become a man for others. We are living in a fast-paced world where money is everything, but DLSU teaches me to still have time to reflect on God through its Saliksik and Lasallian Retreat (LASARET). It also molded me to become the person I am now. It made me realize the purpose and meaning of life. Maybe if I am not studying at DLSU, I would still be the old me.

To our INTPHIL teacher

When children go off to school, you wonder what they'll learn.
You hope and pray that the troubles of the day, in the classroom are not a concern.
When a child always comes home inspired, and looking forward to each learning day.
You look to the teacher for answers, to why the child responds this way.
So teacher, to you we are grateful, for encouragement and love you have shown.
For teaching us to cherish our cultures, and respect those that aren't our own.
We thank you for being creative, for allowing your students to shine.
Through reading philosphical articles, you excited and strengthened our minds
We don't know if we will have another teacher quite like you.
But our memories of this term, will be revealed in all that we do.
And years from now with our success, this effort will redeem.
To a teacher that's the greatest gift, and our answered dream!

City of God revisited

It started when Rocket were already a teenager and was caught between Li’l Z gang and cops. He then narrated the story of the City of God.

The story started with the introduction of the “Tender Trio”, included are Clipper, Shaggy, and Goose. Chaos was no big deal in the City of God, it happens from time to time. The “Tender Trio” started to hold up a gas truck in front of their brothers only to get little amount of cash, during the operation, a cruel boy, thirsty for blood was there named Li’ L Dice, Li ‘l Dice decided to rob a motel together with the “Tender Trio”. He was assigned to shoot the glass incase the police arrived, The “Tender Trio” robbed all cash of the fuckers inside the motel and Li’ l Dice shot the glass so they assumed that police arrived so they escaped. Li’l Dice entered the motel and shot everyone in the room. The “Tender Trio” escaped the motel through a car and unfortunately hit a small cafeteria, Shorty then called the police to tell that the “Tender Trio” were hiding in the woods. The “Tender Trio” then separated their ways, Goose had an affair with Shorty’s wife so Shorty killed his wife, when the police arrested Shorty, they saw a member of the “Tender Trio” and killed him in front of his girlfriend. Goose was then killed by Li’l Dice because Goose is getting the share of Li’l Dice’s best friend Benny, which makes Li’l Dice angry and shot down Goose. One of the “Tender Trio” decided to repent and turns to God. That is the end of the story of the “Tender Trio”, but the story of Rocket and the City of God is far from over.

The story is narrated by Rocket, a boy who grew up in the “City of God”, he knows almost everything because he is the younger brother of Goose, one of the “Tender Trio”. Rocket’s dream and passion is to become a photographer. He then decided to involved himself to crime like his brother, but people he tries to victim seems to be “too good” for him to victim, an example is Knockout Ned and the lady in the store. Li’l Dice then grew up and he still is thirsty for power and fame, he was then known as Li’l Z. Li’l Z then killed every gang and possible competition in the City of God, except the gang of Carrot who is a good friend of his best friend Benny. He killed every competition in the City to attain peace in the City, to make the City more attractive to Rich tourist. Business in the city involves everybody, from children to adults, every person has their role in selling drugs, either one is the seller of the drug, or he is the look out for police. He wanted to avoid war or crimes happening in his territory to avoid police going to his area to avoid intervention of the police in his business. Rocket eventually grew up and he was then in love with a girl, during that time the girl had a boyfriend, but Rocket didn’t lose hope and eventually he win the heart of his girl he wanted to get laid. Rocket introduces the girl to Benny, but unfortunately because of the so called love and money, Benny got the girl from Rocket. Benny and his girl decided to leave the business and start a new life, so Benny decided to threw a party. Li’l Z was very jealous because he had everything he wants except for 1 thing, girls. He only have girl when he either uses force or he pays for it and now he doesn’t like that. He then invited a girl to the dance floor but later he was turn down by the girl. One of Carrot’s men misfired and kills Benny instead of killing Li’l Z, because of this, Lil’ Z wanted to revenged the death of his best friend. Li’l Z then raped the girl he liked and eventually turns him down in the dance floor in front of the girl’s boy friend, Knockout Ned. Ned then decided to take revenge on Li’l Z so he the join with the gang of Carrot. Li’l Z wanted to see himself in a picture but his gang doesn’t know how to use one, so they called up Rocket, a photographer to take some pictures. Rocket took some pictures of the gang and later was published in the papers, he thought he was dead meat, but later he found out that Li’l Z was very happy that his gang was on papers, he wanted to show their power and wealth. Carrot’s gang started to hold up banks, and started to collect big guns to prepare their selves for the main battle. Then the setting of the story went back from where it all began. Rocket was caught in between by Li’l Z gang and police, then Carrot’s gang appeared and the war started. Li’l Z was then caught by the police and the police got all his wealth so he need to start again from scratch, he then ordered the kids to start selling again, but the kids mutinied because Li’l Z was very cruel to the other kids. The kids used the guns given by Li’l Z to kill Li’l Z. Li’l Z is dead. Rocket took pictures of Li’l Z. The movie of City of God ended but the story of it will never end. The movie uses flash back settings, so it ended on where it all started.

Now for the reaction:

1st of all, the film is based on a true to life story, all violence and crime in the film is on a true to life basis, we might think that it is too exaggerate because kids in the film/ story holds guns and uses guns to kill people. Kids at a very young age started to sell drugs.
Chaos was no big deal in this film. Crime and violence in this film is not only for adult but for children as well. Everything that happens in the film happens because of poverty, poverty is 1 major reason why people do bad things, people sell drugs in order to buy food, people robbed each other to get what they wanted. After they stole something, they bought narcotics to ease their wants. It all happens because of poverty and we Filipinos are aware of that, but we are very blind that it doesn’t apply to very country. 1st when I watched the film. I don’t believe that there places that children uses guns to survive, students should be at school studying and not on streets playing with their gun. It is in our culture that teaches us that children should use their time studying and not loitering on streets. But their culture teaches and force the children to adapt to reality and its environment that school will not make them free from hunger instead money will free them from hunger. I cant believe that violence is very often in that place. If I were 1 of them, I would choose to die than to see blood shedding everywhere.

It is very ironic that the film is titled City of God, when I bought the DVD, I thought that it was very religious, and then when I watched the film, I was very curious on how this violent film will be connected to Christ, so I looked at the back of the DVD and read what it says. So I understand why people are lucky if they reached the age of 21, because of violence and killings happening everywhere.

Children in the film were thought how to use guns at the young age, and they were trained to have a heart of stone and they were thought the ideology that the strong shall live and the weak shall die, people in the film were not afraid of death, as if it was part of life to die. People killing people is not an issue in the film, the thirst for power and fame is very evident in the film, they kill human as if they were animals. People in the city of God do everything just to get what they want, Li’l Z killed every competition in the city to have what he want. He wants power and fame, and especially he wants to see blood. The film is a multi awarded film because of the morals it involves. It focuses more on reality and not fiction, the film is very nice but 1 thing that I hate to see but indeed true to life; violence. In the film, there are people/ characters dying every 5 minutes in the film. It is very annoying to see such film but indeed a reality. It happens in any part of the world but we are not just aware of it or I must say we are aware but we don’t take any actions from it. If that kind of violence happens in the Philippines, what will my parents do? Will I also hold a gun and shoot around people? Personally I can’t tell, it is maybe the environment or culture will teach me how to survive in this world. People hunt food in order to survive. People kills for power, killing is still used today in order to survive. Li’l Z use this ideology so that his business will continue, if he will not kill his competitors, someday it might be a threat for him also. Now, with the inventions of weapons of mass destruction, more people are more likely to die. If we use this technology to kill one another, then we can say that our mind and we are murderers as well.

Single parenthood or 2 parent household?

There are very many differences in a single parent household from parenting in a two parent household. Some choose single parenting, other people choose the other way around. Each has its own pros and cons. It is in its own personal view to choose which better lifestyle is for them. There are no perfect relationships in this world, each has to choose whether to pursue the single parenting or continue the 2 parent household.

We are created by God different from each other, there are no perfect relationships in this world, and yet if people in the family don’t quarrel quite some time, the family is dead. We need to communicate and fight over things sometimes. The question is if I think that single-parent households do as a good job as 2 parent household? I think sometimes they really do as good things, and sometimes not. The situations really depend on the person if he/ she thinks can carry his/her family in his/her own ways. Personally, I prefer to have a 2 parent household, it is good to see my parents are there to support me in my life, with my career, yet it is still good that it is easier to make house rules and implement them in a single-parent household because there are no more arguments, however making rules is not easy, and it is good to have at least some adults for some consultations. In a family, there are always its strengths and weaknesses, even we prefer to have a 2 parent household, and there are some situations that a single parent household is better. It really depends on the situations. I will discuss the pros and cons of having a single parent household in the following paragraph.

In a single-parent household, children tend to have more responsibilities than children living in a 2 parent household; children run errands and do some house chores. Financial problems arise in a single-parent household because there is only 1 source of income and money. Parenting a baby is a no no for a single-parent household, because babies need 24 hours care and parents need some rest, they are not robots that can work 24 hours. Another problem arises when the children need to visit the other parent’s house every week. It is very impractical to choose between two parents. It is very impractical for the children to always accompany his/her parents always, he needs to enjoy life, and he needs companies like his age. He assumes that parents have friends too in a single parent household. For parents who are separated. It is very difficult to choose, they feel disloyal and confused. It is most important to keep children out of issues between parents. If parenting alone, it is good to have companion the same sex as your child, at least he understands what the child needs.

Parent in a single-parent household should think about that children are still children, whether you are on the north or at the south. Sharing the load of the parent shouldn’t take over. They need to play and be active in the community. They need to do the children’s games like playing, dreaming, running or simply being with friends. In visiting the other parent, children show excitement and the parent should be very considerate. Parent should allow time for their children to 'fit back into home' when they return. Some children take a few minutes, or hours, and some take days to adjust. They may feel sad about leaving the other parent and guilty about feeling this way. They may feel disloyal to you. Parent shouldn’t use their children to find their ex-partner doings. This way conflicts will be avoided.

In living in a single-parent household, parent should know that in this type of home can be positive experience for kids who often have a close and special relationship with the parent, sometimes kids will envy their friends who are living in a 2 parent household, but each household has its own ups and downs. Children in a single parent household are often mature because of the extra responsibilities they have. Parent should be proud of their children’s achievements. Children should also spend time with his friends. He cannot be loner all the time. Children too attached with a parent seem to hard for them when they are ready to leave home. They feel guilty for leaving home. The parent should be considerate that his child is no longer a baby that he is ready to have his own family wherein he will be a father soon.

There is no perfect relationship in this world. It depends on the family which is more comfortable. Each family has his ups and downs; it is impractical to compare a single-parent household to a 2 parent household. We can say that two parent household is better because both parents are there, what if both parents are busy working with their business? It is no use. It is still better to have a single parent household wherein your parent full attention is with you. What is more important is that the children know where they come from and who their parents are. Children should love both parents without feeling the guilt and the parent should be happy with his life so that the children can see that the parent is happy. Parent shouldn’t be the block to the rode of their success instead parents should be their companion, their guide and the light to their success. We should always know that we are created differently by our Creator, it is not important on whether we have a single parent household, or 2 parents household. What is important is that we should be happy on what we have for it is God who gave those to love us. Everything happens for a reason. It is still good to have a single parent caring for you, than having no parent looking after you.

Religion in the Philippines

Most Filipinos are Catholics, and it is true that Philippines is the only Asian Country who is Catholic. Most Filipinos are Catholics because the first thing the Spaniards do when they landed into our lands was to teach us their religion, and that religion is Catholicism. Most of our ancestors were pagans and were believer of Bathala. As the result, the Philippines was the third largest catholic nation in the world. Images of Jesus, Virgin Mary and the Santo Nino were almost everywhere, but with all these. Can we say that our religion is strong? In general, is it getting stronger or is it declining?

I think that the religion in general is declining; it is because we are on a fast paced world, and we want things to be fast. We want things to be instant. What people can claim as a strengthening of faith are usually just last ditch efforts. We just pray on the last resort. During the year, we are not that religious. We just pray only when we need something. Religions in the Philippines nowadays are declining because we don’t even know who we worship. There is vagueness in our religion. Take the example of Catholics, you ask a common man randomly in the streets and ask who the twelve apostles are, they will get the first 3 answers like Peter, James, John, and the next three answers you will get Tito, Vic and Joey. How can a common man know the first three answers and the last three will be the famous host of a famous television programs. It is because that religion especially Catholism is declining, people nowadays just prayed if they need something, they don’t reflect and don’t go to mass regularly. Another reason why I said that Religion in the Philippines is declining is because, people now today are confused of what their religion are telling them to do, some people are too confused that they go to other religion. People started to transfer to Born Again; Jesus is Lord, Temple of the child Jesus and many other sects. Now how can you say that the religion in the Philippines is not declining? Why is it that when it is Good Friday, many people volunteered to be crucified on the cross? Does it make them less sinful? I think that it is not a good example to get rid of our sins; I think that the best way is to sacrifice our time with our Lord, Another example is when the great tsunami killed hundred of thousands of people, people just started to pray, but did they pray before making their trip? I think some did, but mostly they tend to remember God only when they needed something. As time by, we can say that there are more options to choose on what religion a person will join, there is now Rizalism, Aglipayanism, faith healers. People are very confused that they worship Rizal for the belief that Rizal will save them not only from the Spaniards but also from their sins. People created new religions for they believe that the new religion will save them from eternal damnation, but the new religions invented by people are half cooked, or meaning the wholeness and the fullness of it is incomplete.

Ang Buhay ay Parang Isang Mesa sa Cafe

Sa wakas tapos na ang JPRIZAL! Grabe talaga ang klaseng iyon puro Rizal na lamang ang pinag-uusapan, napakadugo talaga. Makaalis na nga at may Filipino pa ako. Ah oo nga, wala palang Filipino ngayon. Sa halip dapat pala kaming pumunta sa cafe para magmasid. Grabe naman, sa dami ba naman ng mga lugar na puwedeng puntahan sa café pa. Eh anu naman ang makikita ko roon? Sana sa Jollibee na lang ako, o kaya sa Starbucks. Makakain pa ako ng Chicken Joy habang nagmamasid. Pero wala naman ako magagawa. Sige na nga, 30 minuto lang naman.

Umalis si PJ sa klase na masama ang loob at nagtatakang “Bakit sa café?”
Tulad rin ng ibang kainan ang café ng Z2. Wala namang naiiba rito. Madalas gawing tambayan ito ng mga taong nagpapalipas ng oras. Karaniwan na ring dito nag-aaral ang mga pangkat-pangkat ng mga mag-aaral sa kadahilanang dito puwede silang mag-ingay samantlang sa library ay mapapagalitan sila. Kapag oras na ng kainan, madalas wala ka nang mauupuan dito sa dami ng tao. Gayun na lamang ang nangyayari sa araw-araw na ginawa ng Diyos. Wala naman ang nagbabago. Anu pa ba ang kuwenta na magsayang ako ng oras rito?

Anung oras na ba? Ganap ng ika-1:45 ng hapon, kakaunti na lamang ng tao sa café. Ano ang gagawin ko rito? Makabili nga ng Teazers. Ang tagal naman ng mga kagrupo ko. Makaupo na nga nang makapagsimula na. Sana nandito yung crush ko. Si “café girl”, iyon ang binigay kong palayaw kasi madalas ko siyang makita sa may café. Sayang wala siya, kung narito sana siya, siya na lang ang pagmamasdan ko. Para malaman ko na rin kung matakaw ba at bakit laging nasa cafe. Sayang talaga wala siya. Ah iyon na lang mesa sa harap ng Nescafe booth. Iyon lang naman ang may tao.

Nagsimula nang magmasid si PJ. Hindi niya alam na kabaligtaran pala ito ng iniisip niyang “boring” na cafe.

Mayroong limang tao noong una sa mesa. Dalawa rito ay babae at mga lalake naman ang natitira. Nag-aaral sila, Math ata ang inaaral nila. Siguro Alge101 ang inaaral, hawak kasing libro ay Introduction to College Algebra, baka nag Basic Math sila. Bumagsak siguro sa qualifying exams. Parang ako, hindi kasi nag-aral. Ang sipag naman nila, nag-aaral ng Math, siguro mayroong mahabang pagsusulit. Anu ba ito mag-aaral na lang ba sila? Hindi ko naman papakinabangan ang ginagawa nilang iyan. Hindi naman magandang isulat sa papel ko ang pag-aaral ng isang grupo. Gusto ng higit pa diyan. Gusto ko naman ng aksyon. Kapag may nag-away mas maganda sa papel hindi ba?

Nagmistulang isang manunulat sa pahayagan si PJ. Naghihintay na mayroong mangyaring interisante, lumalagablab kung baga. Sabi nga ng mga pahayagan “Ang masamang balita ay mabuting balita para sa amin.”

Mukhang matalino iyong babaeng naka-lila ha. Sa kanya nagtatanong ang lahat. Matagal pa ba silang mag-aaral? Sa wakas mukhang ginutom na sila. Ayun isa-isang nagtatayuan para bumili ng pagkain. Naunang nakabalik ang babaeng naka-lila. Bumili siya ng Waffle. Siguro hilig niya talaga ang kulay na iyon. Bumalik na rin ang kaibigan niyang babae, bumili lamang ng inumin. Nakalimutan ng babaeng naka-lila bumili ng inumin kaya tumayo at umalis. Habang bumibili siya ng kanyang inumin, tinikman naman ng kanyang kaibigan ang kanyang Waffle. Sa bagay “that’s what friends are for” hindi ba? Hindi kaya siya magtaka sa pagbalik niya kung bakit bawas na ang kanyang kinakain? Ayan na rin yung mga lalaki. Mas natagalan pero wala naman masyadong dala. Lumipas lamang ang ilang minuto, nagpaalam na yung matakaw na babae. Pinalitan naman agad siya ng isang lalaki. Hindi nanaman lumipas ang mahabang panahon nagsialisan na ang mga kalalakihan maliban sa isa. Ngayon dalawa na lamang sila nung babaeng naka-lila ang damit. Ayan na ang pinakahihintay kong bahagi. Ito na siguro ang parteng magandang sulatin. Anu kaya ang gagawin nila?

Habang hinihintay ang mga susunod na pangyayari, naabala si PJ at ang kanyang grupo nang mayroon isang magandang babae ang lumapit sa mesa nila upang maylagay ng isang anunsiyo sa porma ng isang maliit na taong niyebe. Agad na pinaglaruan ang maliit na taong-niyebe at doon na nabaling ang atensiyon ng grupo.

Ayan malapit nang magtapos ang ating 30 minuto. Sa wakas makakaalis na tayo rito. O anu yun, tama ba ang nakikita ko? Nag jack en poy na yung dalawa sa mesa. Siguro nainip na sa kahihintay ng oras.

Ana buhay ay parang isang mesa sa café. Sa simula mababagot ka dahil sa walang nangyayari. Pero maghintay ka lamang at siguradong mayroong mangyayaring hindi mo inaasahan. Parang mesa din sa cafe ang buhay natin. Kapansin-pansin na ang mga tao na gumagamit sa mesa ay iba-iba. Dumarating, umaalis, mayroong nagtatagal mayroon namang saglit lang. Para baga sa buhay natin, madami tayong nakikilala, mayroong nagiging kaibigan, mayroong hindi, mayroong hanggang kakilala nalang at meron naman ang nagiging bahagi na ng iyong buhay. Sa pagtatapos ng aming pagmamasid, sumagi sa isipan namin ito “Ngayon tayo ang nagmamasid at nanghuhusga, pero malay ba natin na meron din pala ang nagmamasid, nanghuhusga at nanglalait sa atin ngayon.”

Umalis si JF na nakangiti, marahil sa kadahilanang nakita niya na naglalaro ng jack en poy ang dalawang college students. Marahil rin siguro dahil napagisip-isip niya na ang buhay pala ay parang isang mesa sa café, parehong-pareho. Halos walang pinagkaiba.
