5.6.10

an improvement with a cost.



once a shady, full of trees part of bicol university seen along Rizal St. (fronting Camp General Simeon Ola) is now one of the hotspots (spots wherein no trees can shade you while you are walking) in the university. hmm. from what i have known, the spot wherein the trees were cut down, particularly the walkway leading to the BU College of Arts and Letters on the other side and BU Administration Building on the other will be the spot wherein a new gate (maybe a BIG beautiful main gate) will be constructed.

As i can see it, there is no problem with regards to improving the facade of the university for it can help the university improve its status and create beautiful impressions to outsiders. as i can see it, there is no problem with regards to this improvement for as a student in the university, i welcome any improvement whether with regards to the infrastructure, curriculum and many others. but as i can see it, cutting trees that can instead provide shades for the students walking or atleast a spot for relaxation under the cool shade of a tree is not just. as i can see it, we could have used the trees instead in making the to-be-constructed gate more beautiful. but then, of course, lets just wait for the result first. i just hope that the trees cut down will be replaced maybe not on the same spot but on the other spots available.

ps. mainitun na sa legazpi, dae na dapat nagpaparaputol ning kahoy.
