Eid al-Fitr, also known as the 'festival of breaking the fast,' is a delightful celebration that signals the end of Ramadan, a month where Muslims fast from dawn till sunset. 🌙

At the heart of this celebration is gratitude to God. That's why on the morning of Eid, Muslims come together to offer a special congregational Eid prayer, expressing their thanks and joy for the blessings received during Ramadan. 🙏

Happy Birthday, WAISmates! As April unfolds, it's time to celebrate the shining stars among us.

May this new journey of your life be filled with endless laughter and unforgettable moments shared with your loved ones. Cheers to both of you, Erylle and Crystal our April babies, and the wonderful journey that lies ahead!

Your mental health and wellbeing are of utmost importance to us, and we want to ensure that you have access to the support and resources you need to thrive, both academically and personally.

You can now book and schedule your appointment with your counselor using our 𝐍𝐔 𝐆𝐒𝐎 𝐒𝐌𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐁𝐨𝐨𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐩𝐚𝐠𝐞: bit.ly/BookUrNUCounselor

Whether you're feeling overwhelmed with schoolwork, struggling with personal relationships, or simply need someone to talk to, our counseling services are here for you. Our team of dedicated counselors is trained to provide a safe and confidential space for you to explore your thoughts and feelings, develop coping strategies, and work towards your goals.

If you've been hesitant to reach out for support, we want to encourage you to take that first step. You don't have to navigate life's challenges alone, and there's no shame in asking for help when you need it.

Here are just a few reasons why counseling can be beneficial:

𝐄𝐦𝐨𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐒𝐮𝐩𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭: Counseling provides a supportive environment where you can express your emotions freely and without judgment.

𝐒𝐤𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐁𝐮𝐢𝐥𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠: Our counselors can help you develop valuable coping skills and strategies to manage stress, anxiety, and other mental health concerns.

𝐏𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐆𝐫𝐨𝐰𝐭𝐡: Through counseling, you can gain a deeper understanding of yourself, your goals, and your values, leading to greater self-awareness and personal growth.

𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧: Counseling offers an opportunity to connect with someone who truly listens and understands, helping you feel less alone in your struggles.

Remember, your mental health matters, and taking care of yourself is always a priority. 💙💛

Let's honor Jesus' last days by embracing the spirit of kindness, compassion, and service to others. 🙏💖 May this day be filled with reverence, gratitude, and deep reflection as we walk alongside Jesus on his path of love and redemption.

Black Saturday occupies a solemn space between Jesus Christ's crucifixion and his resurrection. During this period, countless individuals contemplate the confusion and despair experienced by his followers. This day holds deep significance as it marks the mourning period when Jesus was laid to rest in his tomb following his crucifixion, thus earning the label 'black. 🙏🏻✝️

As we journey through Holy Week, from the jubilant Palm Sunday to the glorious Easter Sunday, let's take a moment to reflect on the significance of this day. 🌿🌺 It marks the beginning of a poignant sequence of events leading to the ultimate act of love and sacrifice.

Today, we come together to commemorate the beautiful and profound Last Supper of Jesus Christ with his disciples. 🥖 This special occasion serves as a powerful reminder of humility and selflessness, virtues that Jesus exemplified throughout his life.

Wishing you a blessed Maundy Thursday filled with love, peace, and reflection. ✨

Maligayang pagbati, Nationalians! 💛💙

As we embrace Women’s Month, it's a time to celebrate the incredible essence of women all around us. Whether they're our mothers, sisters, teachers, or friends, each woman brings a unique sparkle to our lives.

In a world where stereotypes and misconceptions often cloud judgment, women continue to shine bright, breaking barriers and carving out their paths. They're not just women; they're nurturers, mentors, and trailblazers, making remarkable strides in every aspect of life.

So here's to the women who inspire us daily, showing us that strength knows no bounds and that greatness lies within each of us, regardless of gender. Let’s celebrate their 𝐚𝐜𝐡𝐢𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬, 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐢𝐫 𝐝𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐦𝐬, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐢𝐫 𝐮𝐧𝐰𝐚𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐬𝐩𝐢𝐫𝐢𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐖𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐧’𝐬 𝐌𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐡 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐛𝐞𝐲𝐨𝐧𝐝! 💪🎉

Handa na ba ang Nationalians na sumabak sa finals?! *cricket noises*

Endless hell weeks, sleepless nights, and constant worries. These are only a few understatements about what college students go through each semester. One would do anything to pass and carry on. As they say, “Nothing worth comes easy”, but what there are actually ways to help you with this survival.

Come to the Learning Resource Center’s Conference Room at the 5th floor of the Main Building of the National University - Manila on wednesday, February 21, 2024 for a group session entitled “ARAL TIME! (REMIX VER.): Aligning One’s Learning Techniques to Their Distinct Learning Style” to discover more about the differences of each student you pass by on campus, and the effective studying strategies based on your uniqueness.

Also, scan the spotify code at the bottom of the photo for a playlist that will surely get you in the zone. Mapapasabi ka nalang ng “Kaya ko ‘to!”
We’ll see you there, WAISmates! 💖💙💛
