This would probably be me when I try to do editorial stuff. TRY. Doing all the researching and stuff. MEH.
1. What is Editorial Writing?
- When you say Editorial, it's the action of doing the an article or a writing that would express your own view or opinion on a current issue or event. It's the article that states the editor's or journalist's view. Basically, it's an opinion of the writer.
2.Write an editorial opinion regarding any topic concerning the SSC-R school population.
The less, the better?
We students have been used to hearing about big schools or universities when you go to college. Going into school that have tons of courses or places to go to, places to explore. But have you ever wondered studying in an underpopulated school? Have you even heard of underpopulated schools? A Famous and Well-Known school but lacks the students? Before I get to my point, I would just like to share this experience I've had going in a big school, specifically, University of Santo Tomas. Heard of it, yes? Of course you do! Who doesn't, right? One of the Big 4 schools in the Philippines. I've studied in that school from 2012 to 2014 and one of the things I can say about that school is that it is HUGE. Like really, you'll see the different departments around the place, scattered. My course is Fine Arts, I go to Beato Angelico building where all the CFAD and Arki students go and that building is the only isolated building while all the other departments are next to each other. You have to take a 10 minute walk or so, or if you're really lazy make it 30 minutes just to arrive at the Car Park to buy fast food. You have to make that sacrifice and walk that long under the scorching sun all hungry and parched. Then after when you're done eating, you'll do the same routine and when you arrive at the building well.. you're hungry again. (that explains why I got fat.. but that's not the point here.. ANYWAY) That's only talking about the distance. What about the people, the population specifically? Do you know that UST has 42,721 students enrollees as of 2013. How much do you think they've totaled in 2015 with all the new Highschool fresh graduates or transferees. After 2014, I transferred at San Sebastian College - Recoletos Canlubang. Take note.. "Canlubang" not Manila and the population of this school that i'm in is only at 300+ college students. See the difference between the two schools? Why I mentioned my past school is that mainly because of the big difference. In UST, you have so much people surrounding you that you get to feel alone or even having so many friends, you would still feel like you have none because of how many students you don't know are surrounding you. UST has like 5 and up buildings around while Baste Canlubang only has 1. Our building looks like one room compared to the whole UST. This may look like i'm insulting or humiliating our school, but i'm not. To be honest, going to San Sebastian College - Recoletos Canlubang has been like a reincarnation for me. I haven't been the best student in UST, infact despite all the hardships that I've made I still fail most of the time and that's saying something. This may seem far off topic but it connects because transferring to a small school like Baste made my college life so much better. Yes, it's small. Yes, it has a number of students that you can count without getting tired. Yes, you can get to one place to another in just 5 mins because of how small it is. But that's what makes it good, for me. With the population this small, you will have the chance to get to know more of the people around you, get the chance to meet each one and talk to them on a normal basis without even missing not saying hi to one student. With this kind of population, bullying wouldn't be much of a problem. You know almost everyone, your friend knows your friends, everyone knows you, you know them. Who would think there would be bullying going around when all of you basically know each other. With this kind of population, you wont get to notice one that doesn't matters because since everyone knows everyone, it's like everyone matters. You know everyone, you notice everyone, you notice everyone's moves and you'll never feel alone.
Me after UST:

(Ma'am i'm so sorry if this turned out more into a reflection than an editorial writing. I really don't know how to do editorial writing stuff... But I hope this will do. THANK YOU!)
