To anyone who has been to UPLB recently: have you seen the new lamp posts? I think it is part of the preparation for the Centenial Celebration.
Green metal posts with a circle with the acronym “UP” on it.
Funny how you would read it the letters as “up” (as in higher altitude) but then again the ‘P’ is lower than the ‘U’. So it’s like “up” but it’s going down. Kind of like saying the opposite of what you feel: you say your happy when in fact your sad, you say you feel up when you actually feel……..errr…. I believe it’s what they call irony.
I don’t know about people and their thing with symbols, but hey we have the winged carabao (pegarao) and I believe there is a positive connotation to that symbol. The oblation is also a symbol and it has a positive connotation also.
It just strikes me as somewhat odd though how this two letters seem to make me feel going down. *Sigh*
Maybe through this blog I would like to have a formal protest and change that circle thingie on the lamp posts.
Any reason why it is yellow though?
