This semester, challenge yourself to:
✨ 𝐁𝐞 𝐂𝐮𝐫𝐢𝐨𝐮𝐬: Look beyond the syllabus. The most interesting lessons often happen in the margins of your notes.
✨ 𝐏𝐨𝐬𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐒𝐞𝐥𝐟-𝐓𝐚𝐥𝐤: Catch yourself when you say negative self-talks. Challenge yourself to rephrase it: "This is a tough concept, but I’m capable of learning it."
✨ 𝐁𝐞 𝐊𝐢𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐨 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐟: There will be long nights and tough exams in chasing your dreams, but it will be worth.

You belong here, and you are more than capable of handling whatever this semester throws at you. Grab a coffee, find your seat, and let’s make it a great one.

𝑯𝒂𝒑𝒑𝒚 𝑭𝒊𝒓𝒔𝒕 𝑫𝒂𝒚!

✨ 𝑺𝒕𝒆𝒂𝒅𝒚 𝒎𝒊𝒏𝒅, 𝒓𝒆𝒂𝒅𝒚 𝒔𝒐𝒖𝒍. ✨

As we start 2026, we let go of the previous year and realize that it isn’t just about how fast we finished, but how deeply we’ve grown. A steady mind gives us the clarity to learn from the past, and a ready soul gives us the openness to embrace the unknown of 2026.

Growth is rarely a loud explosion; it is the quiet, persistent expansion of your own potential. As you stand at this starting line, remember that you are not the same person from the previous year. You are wiser, more resilient, and fully equipped for what’s next.

🟢 Ground your thoughts. Clarity begins when we silence the pressure to "have it all figured out."

🔵 Trust the timing. Every season of waiting was actually a season of preparation.

🟡 Ignite your purpose. Small sparks of curiosity often lead to the greatest life changes.

𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐓𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐬𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐒𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐠𝐲:
1. Release — Let go of the "should-haves" to make room for the "will-be's."
2. Recognize — Identify the strength you discovered in your hardest moment this year.
3. Resolve — Commit to one habit that protects your peace in 2026.
4. Rise — Step forward with the quiet confidence of someone who has already overcome.

The 𝐎𝐟𝐟𝐢𝐜𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐆𝐮𝐢𝐝𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐂𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠 – 𝐀𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐢𝐥𝐚𝐧 reminds every Red Spartan: your potential is a limitless horizon. Steady mind, ready soul. The new year is waiting for your light.

✨𝑩𝒓𝒂𝒗𝒆 𝒉𝒆𝒂𝒓𝒕, 𝒔𝒕𝒓𝒐𝒏𝒈 𝒔𝒕𝒂𝒓𝒕.✨

It’s Monday, December 29, 2025 — the last Monday of the year! With just a few days left before 𝐍𝐞𝐰 𝐘𝐞𝐚𝐫 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟔, it’s the perfect time to reflect, celebrate your wins, and prepare for fresh beginnings. A brave heart allows us to face challenges with courage, and a strong start sets the tone for the year ahead.

As we step closer to 2026, remember: courage isn’t the absence of fear, but the willingness to act despite it. Every small step you take today builds momentum for a meaningful tomorrow (Brown, 2021). Use these last days of the year to finish strong, reflect on lessons learned, and envision the life you want to create in the new year.

🟢 𝐄𝐦𝐛𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐞 𝐜𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐚𝐠𝐞. Every brave choice strengthens resilience (Neff, 2011).
🔵 𝐇𝐨𝐧𝐨𝐫 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐩𝐚𝐜𝐞. Your journey is unique — focus on consistent progress, not perfection (Seligman, 2011).
🟡 𝐑𝐞𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐧 𝐭𝐨 𝐜𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐫. Pause, reflect, and align your goals with your values (Brown, 2021).

𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐌𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚𝐲 𝐆𝐚𝐦𝐞 𝐏𝐥𝐚𝐧:
1. Reflect — celebrate what you’ve overcome this year.
2. Set one bold intention — a meaningful goal to start 2026 strong.
3. Take one brave step — a small action toward your new-year aspirations.
4. Recharge — rest, reset, and prepare for a fresh start.

The 𝐎𝐟𝐟𝐢𝐜𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐆𝐮𝐢𝐝𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐂𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠 – 𝐀𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐢𝐥𝐚𝐧 reminds all Red Spartans: 𝑩𝒓𝒂𝒗𝒆 𝒉𝒆𝒂𝒓𝒕, 𝒔𝒕𝒓𝒐𝒏𝒈 𝒔𝒕𝒂𝒓𝒕. Step boldly into 2026 with courage, hope, and purpose — your journey continues beautifully.

Yesterday we celebrated 𝐂𝐡𝐫𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐦𝐚𝐬 𝐃𝐚𝐲, filled with joy, love, and giving. Today, 𝐃𝐞𝐜𝐞𝐦𝐛𝐞𝐫 𝟐𝟔, is our moment to reflect, express gratitude, and say 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐤 𝐲𝐨𝐮 to the people who made our year brighter — through gifts, acts of kindness, or simply their presence.

𝐍𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐓𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐤 𝐘𝐨𝐮 𝐍𝐨𝐭𝐞 𝐃𝐚𝐲 is all about the simple, meaningful act of sending handwritten notes to friends, family, or anyone who has positively impacted your life. A small note can carry a big message: “You matter.”

Here at 𝐁𝐚𝐭𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐔–𝐀𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐢𝐥𝐚𝐧, the Office of Guidance and Counseling invites every 𝐑𝐞𝐝 𝐒𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐚𝐧 to pause, reflect, and share appreciation. Writing a note is more than etiquette — it’s mindfulness, kindness, and a celebration of connection in a fast-paced, digital world.

✨ 𝐌𝐞𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐟𝐮𝐥 𝐖𝐚𝐲𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐂𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐛𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐍𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐓𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐤 𝐘𝐨𝐮 𝐍𝐨𝐭𝐞 𝐃𝐚𝐲 ✨

4️⃣ Mailbox surprise – mail a handwritten note to someone and brighten their day.
5️⃣ Doodle your thanks – add sketches, stickers, or little art to make each note special.
6️⃣ Thank-you relay – start a note chain where each person adds a message and passes it on.
7️⃣ Create a gratitude video – speak your thanks on camera and share it with loved ones.
8️⃣ Host a thank-a-thon – gather friends or family to write notes together with music and snacks.

✨𝑵𝒆𝒘 𝒎𝒐𝒓𝒏, 𝒎𝒐𝒗𝒆 𝒐𝒏.✨

It’s Monday, December 22, 2025 — just three days away from Christmas! The holiday season reminds us of joy, gratitude, and fresh beginnings. Every new morning is a chance to leave yesterday behind and step forward with clarity and intention. Challenges, setbacks, or unfinished tasks are part of the journey, but each sunrise invites us to move on with courage and purpose.

As we approach the holidays, remember: moving on doesn’t mean forgetting. It means learning, letting go, and choosing progress over perfection (Brown, 2021). Celebrate small wins, cherish meaningful moments, and carry hope into the new week.

🟢 𝐄𝐦𝐛𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐞 𝐧𝐞𝐰 𝐛𝐞𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐬. Each day offers a chance to reset, grow, and welcome the festive spirit (Neff, 2011).
🔵 𝐇𝐨𝐧𝐨𝐫 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐩𝐚𝐜𝐞. Your journey is unique — one step at a time leads to lasting progress (Seligman, 2011).
🟡 𝐑𝐞𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐧 𝐭𝐨 𝐜𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐫. Pause, breathe, and focus on what truly matters — family, friends, and self-care (Brown, 2021).

𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐌𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚𝐲 𝐆𝐚𝐦𝐞 𝐏𝐥𝐚𝐧:
1. Reflect — acknowledge what you’ve learned and achieved so far.
2. Set one intention — a meaningful action to move forward this week.
3. Let go — release worries that hold you back from joy.
4. Take action — even a small step counts toward progress and holiday readiness.

The 𝐎𝐟𝐟𝐢𝐜𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐆𝐮𝐢𝐝𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐂𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠 – 𝐀𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐢𝐥𝐚𝐧 reminds all Red Spartans: 𝑵𝒆𝒘 𝒎𝒐𝒓𝒏, 𝒎𝒐𝒗𝒆 𝒐𝒏. Each day is an opportunity to grow, recover, and step boldly into your journey — just in time to welcome the festive season with hope and courage.

🖤 𝐄𝐦𝐨𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧, 𝐄𝐱𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐄𝐦𝐨 𝐕𝐢𝐛𝐞𝐬: 𝐂𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐛𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐍𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐄𝐦𝐨 𝐃𝐚𝐲 🖤

This December 19, we embrace National Emo Day, a celebration of emotion, art, introspection, and the iconic Emo culture that shaped music and self-expression since the 1980s. From raw lyrics to heartfelt melodies, National Emo Day honors the power of feeling deeply — and expressing it creatively.

With roots in post-hardcore, indie rock, and early punk influences, Emo grew into a movement defined by honesty, artistry, and individuality. Bands like Jimmy Eat World, Weezer, Sunny Day Real Estate, and Rites of Spring paved the way for generations of listeners to connect through emotion and authenticity.
Here at BatStateU–Alangilan, the Office of Guidance and Counseling invites every Red Spartan to celebrate in your own expressive way — whether through music, art, or simply appreciating the beauty of emotion.

✨ Meaningful Ways to Celebrate National Emo Day ✨
1️⃣ Listen to classic Emo songs to set the mood.
2️⃣ Write a poem, sketch, journal, or create any artwork that reflects your emotions.
3️⃣ Dress the vibe — black outfits, band tees, layered accessories, expressive makeup.
4️⃣ Explore the history of Emo culture and how it shaped modern music.
5️⃣ Appreciate emotional honesty — in yourself and in others.
🎤 Featured Segment: “What Does Emo Mean to You?”
Today, we asked Red Spartans to share their thoughts and personal interpretations of Emo — as a genre, a culture, and a form of expression. Their insights reveal how Emo continues to inspire individuality, creativity, and emotional awareness.
Because sometimes, embracing your emotions is the bravest form of expression. 🖤✨

𝐁𝐫𝐮𝐬𝐡𝐞𝐬 & 𝐆𝐢𝐠𝐠𝐥𝐞𝐬: 𝐎𝐆𝐂 𝐏𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐬 𝐀𝐰𝐚𝐲 𝐄𝐱𝐚𝐦 𝐒𝐭𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐂𝐨𝐥𝐨𝐫, 𝐋𝐚𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐞𝐫, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐂𝐚𝐫𝐞

“𝐏𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐚𝐰𝐚𝐲, 𝐑𝐞𝐝 𝐒𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐬!”—and that’s exactly what happened on 𝐃𝐞𝐜𝐞𝐦𝐛𝐞𝐫 𝟏𝟐, 𝐅𝐫𝐢𝐝𝐚𝐲 (𝟏𝟐.𝟏𝟐.𝟐𝟓) as the Office of Guidance and Counseling (OGC) turned the pressures of exam season into a lively celebration of creativity, care, and connection.

Through 𝐁𝐫𝐮𝐬𝐡𝐞𝐬 & 𝐆𝐢𝐠𝐠𝐥𝐞𝐬: 𝐎𝐆𝐂 𝐆𝐢𝐟𝐭 𝐆𝐢𝐯𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟓, students received 𝟏𝟐 𝐬𝐞𝐭𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐚𝐫𝐭 𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐚𝐥𝐬 and 𝟏𝟐 𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐬-𝐫𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐞𝐟 𝐢𝐭𝐞𝐦𝐬—small tokens with a powerful message: your well-being matters. The gifts were distributed throughout the campus, from 𝐡𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐰𝐚𝐲𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐜𝐚𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐞𝐧𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐜𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐠𝐞 𝐛𝐮𝐢𝐥𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐬𝐭𝐮𝐝𝐲 𝐚𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐬, allowing OGC staff to personally greet students and witness their reactions firsthand.

Red Spartans beamed with joy as they received their gifts. Some paused to show their excitement, others shared laughter and playful cheers, and many expressed heartfelt gratitude, noting how the thoughtful tokens lifted their spirits during the hectic exam week. “It really made my day! I didn’t expect this,” shared one student while holding a set of art materials. Another added, “It’s such a nice way to de-stress before finals—I really feel appreciated.”

Set against the festive backdrop of the approaching Christmas season, 𝐁𝐫𝐮𝐬𝐡𝐞𝐬 & 𝐆𝐢𝐠𝐠𝐥𝐞𝐬 encouraged students to unwind, explore their creativity, and find moments of joy beyond academic deadlines. Each brushstroke and giggle became a gentle reminder that even amidst tight schedules and exam pressures, there is always space for 𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐟-𝐜𝐚𝐫𝐞, 𝐥𝐚𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐞𝐫, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧.

More than a gift-giving activity, 𝐁𝐫𝐮𝐬𝐡𝐞𝐬 & 𝐆𝐢𝐠𝐠𝐥𝐞𝐬 reflected OGC’s ongoing commitment to student wellness—helping learners manage stress in healthy ways while fostering 𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞. The program demonstrated that even small gestures, when infused with care and positivity, can create a meaningful impact.

In the midst of exams and bustling campus life, OGC reminded everyone that 𝐬𝐭𝐮𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐜𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐢𝐬 𝐧𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐚𝐧 𝐚𝐟𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐭—𝐢𝐭 𝐢𝐬 𝐚𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐑𝐞𝐝 𝐒𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐚𝐧 𝐬𝐩𝐢𝐫𝐢𝐭. 💛🎨

✨𝘊𝘰𝘭𝘥 𝘯𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵𝘴, 𝘣𝘰𝘭𝘥 𝘧𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵𝘴.✨

It’s Monday, December 15, 2025 — the middle of the month, a time to pause, reflect, and recharge. Cold nights may feel heavy, but they also remind us that bold fights — the courage to face challenges, push forward, and keep trying — shape our growth.

As we navigate the week, remember: progress isn’t always dramatic. Sometimes it’s finishing tasks despite fatigue, speaking up when it matters, or simply choosing to start again (Brown, 2021).

🟢 𝐅𝐮𝐞𝐥 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐜𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐚𝐠𝐞. Small, consistent efforts lead to resilience (Neff, 2011).
🔵 𝐇𝐨𝐧𝐨𝐫 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐩𝐚𝐜𝐞. Your journey is yours; comparison only steals joy (Seligman, 2011).
🟡 𝐑𝐞𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐧 𝐭𝐨 𝐜𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐫. Pause, breathe, and reset to regain clarity (Brown, 2021).

𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐌𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚𝐲 𝐆𝐚𝐦𝐞 𝐏𝐥𝐚𝐧:
1. Reflect — review what you’ve accomplished so far this month.
2. Prioritize — pick 1–2 important tasks to focus on this week.
3. Take one bold step — even a small action moves you forward.
4. Recharge — rest intentionally; courage grows best when you’re nourished.

The 𝐎𝐟𝐟𝐢𝐜𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐆𝐮𝐢𝐝𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐂𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠 – 𝐀𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐢𝐥𝐚𝐧 reminds all Red Spartans: 𝘊𝘰𝘭𝘥 𝘯𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵𝘴 𝘣𝘳𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘣𝘰𝘭𝘥 𝘧𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵𝘴. Keep showing up — your journey is unfolding beautifully, step by brave step.

🔔 𝐑𝐢𝐧𝐠, 𝐑𝐞𝐚𝐜𝐡 𝐎𝐮𝐭, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐑𝐞𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐜𝐭: 𝐂𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐛𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐍𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐃𝐢𝐧𝐠–𝐀–𝐋𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐃𝐚𝐲 🔔

This 𝐃𝐞𝐜𝐞𝐦𝐛𝐞𝐫 𝟏𝟐, we celebrate 𝐍𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐃𝐢𝐧𝐠-𝐀-𝐋𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐃𝐚𝐲, a heartwarming reminder to reconnect with people we haven’t spoken to in a while. The celebration traces back to 1972, when Frank Hyle encouraged everyone to pick up the phone, hear that nostalgic “ding-a-ling,” and bridge the distance with a simple conversation.

It’s also the same year Chuck Berry’s “My Ding-a-Ling” topped the charts — a fun trivia for today’s quirky celebration!

Here at BatStateU–Alangilan, the 𝐎𝐟𝐟𝐢𝐜𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐆𝐮𝐢𝐝𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐂𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠 invites every Red Spartan to take a mindful moment to reconnect. A call, a message, or even a small gesture can brighten someone’s day more than we realize.

✨ 𝐌𝐞𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐟𝐮𝐥 𝐖𝐚𝐲𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐂𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐛𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐍𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐃𝐢𝐧𝐠-𝐀-𝐋𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐃𝐚𝐲 ✨
1️⃣ Call a friend or loved one you haven’t talked to in a long while.
2️⃣ Send a heartfelt “kamusta?” message to someone who matters to you.
3️⃣ Reconnect with a mentor, classmate, or orgmate who made an impact.
4️⃣ Share kindness with someone in need — a small donation goes far.
5️⃣ Play your own “ring-themed” playlist to spark joy.

📸 Show a collection of photos of Red Spartans celebrating connection — calling loved ones, messaging friends, bonding with classmates, writing notes, or engaging in small acts of kindness.

Because sometimes, all it takes is one ring to remind someone they’re remembered. 🔔
