Apologize only from the heart, mean it, say it with all SINCERITY and HUMILITY.

Again, it's all about you, isn't it? YOUR reasons. YOUR justifications. YOUR predicament.

I'm usually quiet about issues and controversies around school, but when you drag the name of the Ateneo Human Rights Center in your futile attempt to save face, I will make my voice heard.

You do not get to claim that "you operate only on one word: TRUST" because we know that is not true. If what you did was not betrayal, then what is?

You do not get to make it appear to me and to all those present in that meeting, or to any Ateneo law student for that matter, that you did not have a choice, because you did, and we all know what it was.

You do not get to impress on me or on anybody that YOUR stand is the only valid stand, and anything other than that is "sitting on the fence", "not responding", "choosing to be quiet", or "choosing what's convenient". We chose to stand for truth, accountability, and reform, at hindi ibig sabihin niyan na hindi kami naninindigan.

You never really got it, my friend. Maybe you never will. Sayang naman ang halos tatlong oras na "exchange of ideas". Ito rin pala ang kahihinatnan.

    hmm... i usually let you "kids" handle your own little fights or misunderstandings as this builds character and makes you independent... but when the center's name is draged into the fray, i put my feet down and try to find out what's this all about... i do hope someone enlightens me on this... last i know, there may be glitches and aprehensions, but everyone was relatively getting along well...

    Nako Ma'm Ly-an I'll visit you to let you know. Or better yet baka dapat si Krizna kumausap sa iyo. She has all the facts right.

    At first it was amusing na another issue na naman, statements are being released (may Ronald McDonald ba na naman?) and strong words are being exchanged, but if it involves HR or its interns na, ibang usapan na yun... we'll see how this will turn out but right now, isa lang ang lider ko, ATE KAT..mwahaha
