Why did I choose HUMSS?

This is my requirement for E-Tech. The photos were not mine, I just compiled it. All credits to the rightful owners.


I don't even know why did I choose HUMSS. Maybe it's because I'm still undecided of my college course, but my heart shouts for HUMSS. Humanities and Social Science, I'm studying this strand for the humanity. I want to explore, be open minded, and expand my knowledge and understanding in the fields of understanding our culture, politics, society, and our own selves. Yes, there are times that I questioned myself on why did I chose this strand where there's no chill time, we have loads of paperworks, and new requirements after submitting the other one. My friends from other strands here in our university were enjoying their vacant and chill times, while there's me and my current classmates who can't even have our sleep. I'm not saying that HUMSS is more stressful than other strands, but there are students who were from STEM, ABM or TVL that expresses their "ahay luoy man" comments for their HUMSS-taker friends in our university. I experienced being in HUMSS, and now I don't think people should belittle this strand because clearly, this strand stands for "Humanities and Sobrang Stress". Hahahaha, just kidding. Every strand has their own strengths and weaknesses so we must respect that, and avoid belittling each other. 

What I like being here, is even though we are flooded with works, we are surely learning from our requirements. Indeed, all those reflections, reaction papers, reviews, journal, argumentative essays, debates, skits; there will be the time where we can actually apply what we have learn about those things. I am glad that my friends from STEM asks for my help when it comes to essays, speeches or anything written-related stuffs; and I'm even happier when they help me with my Math! Not all HUMSS students are idiot when it comes to Math though, so why do some people assume in that way? Generalizing and stereotyping, eh? However, I still don't like Math hahaha, nah, not my cup of tea. But I should tell you guys a secret, I thought there will be no Math in HUMSS so that's like 8% of the reason why I chose HUMSS hihihi, but I was wrong. Ugh.

I did choose HUMSS because I personally think that my likes, skills, and personality suit this strand the best. So if you're thinking about taking this strand, think about it carefully. You might be really stressed out, but everything's worth it. Future Psychologists, Educators, Police, Lawyers, Journalist, etc., the HUMSS Strand will prepare your path!

  1. You might not have the reason why you chose this strand, but maybe God wants you in this strand because it suits you. Yes, it is very stressful but sabi nga nila NO PAIN, NO GAIN. Mas mahirap mas masarap because you will learn from it and Im sure that you can overcome those struggles. Good luck ♥️
