mean girls? hmm... getting there....

Haha, I saw the vid, and a blog. :))

I still wonder why this batch's very curious about Dollhouse. Hmm.

On a side note, you might be amused if you knew that there's such thing as

DOLLHOUSE
DOGHOUSE
and
CATHOUSE

in the Ateneo. Woopee.

Haha! thank you for the tips! kasi I just started to study here from 3rd year of high school. Kaya hindi pa po talaga ako sure sa mga naririnig ko. Naging aware lang ako sa mga universities during the summer bago mag 4th year. Search ako ng search sa net for these. Kasi di ko talaga alam kung pano ang college system in any universities, lalo na sa ADMU. Haha! Kaya ko toh! Di dapat ako matakot!

Hehe, akala ko ung Dollhouse parang museum. XD

What's the dress code po?

Unless you're an utterly irrational homophobe (well, boo to you if that is the case), no reason to get scared about the Dollhouse. They're a friendly bunch. :-bd

pim666 · Member

di ko rin alam eh... pero parang... she told me there was this some kind of an org of homo people... one thing she told me was stay away from them... i think her story was something like this, she was called by one person and they talked and talked for about 30 mins or so, then suddenly the one she was talking to said: "excuse me? im not talking to you" when she turned around, there was another person and so everybody there laughed at her. bottomline is she was put to shame... but im not so sure if those were the one from the dollhouse though... bsta she told me they were homos... so id rather stay away nlng...

Quick note: Watch out for the higad (AKA itchyworms -- yes, that's where they got their name) in the Zen Garden, especially on rainy days. My friend caught a bad allergy once. She was bloating red all over. :s

Don't worry about the Dollhouse. People there can be nice. :p

Dawn · Veteran Member

Zen Garden? Wow.. we really need to tour this place. I've got no clue where those places are. Higad. >.<

Wait, so these Dollhouse people, they're students, too right? How exactly do they get admitted to that house? Hahaha! Sorry, out of curiosity. It's soooo... interesting.

migz · Member

My older bro told me about the dollhouse.. :|

yah, i think there students. I couldn't really answer your question though cause I for one don't know much about them. They are still quite mysterious to me. biggrin

Here's a collection of tips i retrieved from last year's orsem forum. they were posted by the different upperclassmen last year :D
Macci (Matteo Ricci) is the only study hall where you can eat and make noise. HAHA. so have a table reserved for your barkada or block during your break time.

For the love of everything that is holy, NEVER EVER call the Matteo Ricci Study Hall as "Macci." We, upperclassmen, are baffled why the incoming sophomores (last year's freshies) started calling it that. Please don't call it that. Huwag na maging pa-cool. It's been called Matteo for years, no need to change it. Apparently, some pa-cool TNT or whoever involved in last year's OrSem called it "Macci," and the freshies followed.

It's Matteo, not Macci.

The Dollhouse people are some of the nicest, most fun people ever. They just hang out there, and it's everyone else making a big deal about them.

Hey, until they [Dollhouse] do something to you, don't make Dollhouse sound they are rude people. That's just plain wrong.

I second this, Macky. :D That's just so mean. Freshies, for heaven's sake, have the least right to be judgmental as they enter the university.

Are we freshmen allowed to? Or is it off limits?

relax lang. They're just anxious since it's very alien to them.
if you read the comments, us upperclassmen haven't been really helpful at disclosing what dollhouse really is and opting for them to be surprised.

who knows, they might be thinking somewhere along the lines of fraternities or something threatening...

that being said, Dollhouse is harmless and the people there are actually very nice!

and on another note, i was rather surprised seeing more posts about dollhouse in a DOS and DON'TS topic.

Dawn · Veteran Member

Cos we kept seeing the Dollhouse on the DOs and DONTs on the first posts, so we became curious. XD
Guys, punta tayo dun during our self-orientation!

I have a question though. How does the cellphone policy work during classes?
Are you suppose to turn it off or silent or no texting during discussions or no answering calls or or or..?

Most (maybe all) profs require you to either turn them off or keep them in silent/vibrate mode. So that usually means no texting or calling.

Keep the prof's rule on this in mind, because sometimes they give out punishments. My Filipino prof's rule was that he'd give the entire class a quiz whenever somebody's phone rings.

miss_veron08 · Senior Member

Hala, quiz. Nag-ring lang eh.. XD Grabe, dapat pala behave. :D:D:D

Lenie · Veteran Member

Yay, very helpful ♥
The dollhouse thing sounds interesting :D

some profs dont even care about cellphone :D but some are on the extreme. i had a fil prof too that if he hears a phone ring, or someone puts out a cellphone, he'll end the class and walk out

just take note of their rules to be safe

migol · Member

kailangan ba mag-ingat jan sa dollhouse na yan? o safe naman? hahaha! wag lang sana sila yung mga naiisip kong dapat iwasan... XD

Ma'am Ibarra (Accounting prof, SOM and MEC students will meet her in 2nd year) would take your phone and throw in in the trash bin. Once, my friend's phone ended up in the biodegradable bin. Ick.

Yikes
Sa HS some teachers threatened to throw away books/ntbks/stuff na nakakalat, but then again, they were just threats... but I think one time they threw a notebook away.

Oh~ and and aaand is there any other precautions concerning phones/electronic gadgets?

Dawn · Veteran Member

Yeah, like iPods and etc.
How bout calculators? >.<

Sixteenth · Veteran Member

Anu po ang restrictions sa dress code?

Can anybody provide a list or something?

Anything would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance! ^^

the dress code is only applicable at certain places. some teachers also enforce a dress code in their class.

i remember SOM having a dress code as well as the Library. Some lab classes also require closed toe footware for protection.

as far as i know bawal mga sleeveless, slippers, board shorts...ewan na :)) i rarely wear those so i've rarely concerned myself about the dress code...

at least have enough decency and respect to not use your ipod during class! hahaha

calculators are pretty much required in some math classes. you could ask your teachers about their policies.

that's in big classes where the teacher doesn't really have much control over the students. it's easy to hide.. i have friends who play during economics class and that was a class of almost 100.

it's not necesarily allowed but some get away with it.

My friend manages to full-on play Pet Society and chat on Facebook pag boring yung class. Hahaha!

KIDS, WAG TULARAN! Hahaha! Concentrate muna pag freshie. You might regret not going DL when it's still easy.
