The way she delivered her answers made me want to study for like 4-8 years more. I'm about to graduate soon but I feel like I'll still be needing adequate lessons to further enhance my communication skills :(

[@johanndee8457]

Ify hays

[@tine297]

She gives a "Lisa Manoban" vibes. Anyways, I love how eloquent she is!

[@jonelsabit1933]

Comparing an intelligent person to an idol is a stretch. An insult even.

[@tine297]

@@jonelsabit1933 I am pertaining to her face and the way she speaks. How on earth did you think that pointing out their “similarities” equate to “comparing” them. Straighten your way of reading the context.

[@regieds]

I hope she will uphold the history of martial law and the Marcoses. #neverforget

[@alilife_e]

This is so inspiring. I relate to all her answers so much, I hope I can relate to being this intelligent too!

[@regieds]

She is my dream girl 🥰😍.

[@jpgabriele9596]

compelling conversation !

[@RemediosLoberiza]

I liked it especially when she said something about the truth. If not the truth, then we're not talking about history but fiction.

[@seijiamasawa8190]

Re-evaluaate my priorities and trim down my commitments based on what i want to achieve

[@djsmyx5215]

Hey @rappler wasn't Ms. Tiffany Uy the first to do it? Correct me if I'm wrong.😯😯

[@RainaMovsin]

In "history" course

[@paulinopabello3097]

Try ancestral DNA. The UYs are from Cebu, dang b Bantayan., that was in 1942.

[@joshuacapul]

wow! from Taal, Batangas, yes, you might be related to Teodoro Agoncillo and Marcela Agoncillo.

[@gavenguitar9871]

First female ba xa na mag summa alam q meron na before yung tiffany ba yun?corrext me if im wrong.

[@chain9729]

Sa biology dept si tiffanny si miss naamn na naandito is. From history dept

[@apollomoontravel]

bakit kasi hndi na lang mag tagalog. halata naman na mother tongue niya ang Filipino/Tagalog kasi nagstutter siya sa English. alam dn naman na naten na matalino siya so she doesnt need to prove anything.

[@jollibeescraps7777]

History is a bushit degree

[@vicentemaquinad8283]

She can fix me

[@tonichi-kun3901]

Dinalaw ko ang isang propesor sa U.P. Diliman at tinanong ko kung kumusta na ang U.P. students ngayon. Sagot niya: "Tangina, Inglisan nang Inglisan! - Dong Abay, UP Alumnus

[@saintjeffrey9685]

[@lilitg0785]

SOBRANG TRUE PO HAHAHAHA

[@dailyfashionista1]

😂😂😂

[@millennialinmanila5621]

Mas nakakahiya naman kung ang sagot sa tanong na: kamusta na mga UP students ngayon? Ayun, malimali English grammar.

[@ednaviray2096]

I really love her speaking voice. Regardless of the Title, the story helped.

[@miraclepie7015]

...and she's pretty too! Beauty and brains!

[@maikoespinosa5715]

The interview is so painful to watch mainly because the interviewer was awkward and it feels like the interviewee is trying to make it comfortable but the host sticks to being awkward.

[@quantumchase]

Impressive young lady. I can sense the idealism and a good balance of skepticism. =) I hope she sticks to her profession. =)

[@itsmeshuji1231]

Thank you.

[@magdalaacosta883]

blessed are this graduates who really spent 100 % of their efforts for their studies congratulations to all graduates.

[@jgu9929]

I like all her answers. So intellectual. :) Padayon!!!

[@rengilmana-ay2045]

THE 👏 TITLE 👏 IS 👏 CORRECT! 👏 It does not pertain to the whole UP system nor history. The title writes UP History's not UP's history.

[@baltazarmelchor451]

Mali pa rin kasi parang supposedly ay meron College of History ang U.P. eh.

[@Philnp272]

She should replace the interviewer/reporter. The interviewer is so self conscious and awkward. She keeps looking at the ceiling its annoying. Too many facial expressions. And so structured with her guide questions.The interviewee is more confident and mature in this interview.

[@theunknownchannel8166]

ZenTee agree ako dito. You cant just be smart and fluent in english para maging host. She can work nalang off camera.

[@JenGaming]

Ang dami mong arte.

[@Philnp272]

[@Gab-hz9tp]

totally agree

[@katedesiderio5101]

she couldn’t even make an aye contact

[@donnatmakemecrypls]

I am currently on top of our STEM curriculum in junior HS, my strengths are sci, math and HISTORY (myluvs😍). And I am already torn between choosing HUMSS or staying in STEM. They say I should go opt for STEM, and be a doctor because it's more practical. But I know deep down, that my heart belongs political science and history. Chiqui, made me realize that choosing your passion instead of practicality is one of the best decisions that you could make for urself. I couldn't promise that my finalized strand would be HUMSS, but I'll always take Chiqui's lesson in mind💞

[@carly2029]

Follow your passion :)

[@harleyevans3197]

Do what makes you happy and fulfilled. Humss student here😊

[@IwriteIread]

Hey, what did you choose? I'm also torn between these two for the same reason.

[@donnatmakemecrypls]

@@IwriteIread omgesh this is such an old comment hahaha. I chose STEM! Sometime after this I began to focus on Sci & Math and I have grown to love them! My family is also more supportive of me going into STEM so that strengthened my decision. Though I still am into learning about history and political issues nowadays I treat them as a hobbies. I still can't say for sure if I'll go into med, I think whatever you choose there'll still be doubts but just trust in the process and in the decision that u make. P.S. Make an effort in evaluating if you'll actually enjoy going into the sciences or humanities. If u have tried ur best and still not feel any affinity with STEM or ur still very passionate about HUMSS then go for it! If you choose the strand that u don't enjoy and forced to study hard lessons then it's going to be a torment.

[@IwriteIread]

@@donnatmakemecrypls Same here, I only decided on the STEM strand a few days ago haha. Mama mentioned that the STEM strand would benefit me in math and science, as well as in the entrance exam.

[@jovieforsuelo3665]

I hope she will use her knowledge for the betterment of the Philippine history.

[@kzppop]

beauty and brain. she has it both. kaengget.. haha

[@bicobianlynmarjori2451]

Yup I totally agree. I thought that it was the whole UP System this video is pertaining to but it was actually not. So i think that misleading talaga yung title.

[@yurikonoawra]

Wow. Kung makapag comment naman sa interviewer. Lahat naman me mga kanya-kanyang opinion. Pero sana naman ung nakaka encourage ung comment di ung nakakapanglait... Kayo kaya Nasa lugar nya...

[@JenGaming]

Korek masyadong perfectionist masyado yung iba, for me okay naman yung interviewer.

[@quantumchase]

Binasa ko yung ibang comments. Be warned, andaming negative. Nakakastress mga online trolls.

[@itsmeshuji1231]

Yung iba nalito pa sa title hahahha 😂 what the frick?! Haysst.....

[@jovieforsuelo3665]

It doesn't matter what honor you will get after graduation. What matters most is that how will you apply the knowledge in real workplace. Because there are some UP graduates who are intelligent but have attitude problems in terms choosing a job. I'd rather be an average person than to be an intelligent person who helped low class persons in the society

[@CamilleJoyCerbito]

Akala ko 1st female SC sa history ng UP. Yun pala History na course. Rappler anu?

[@mondzcarte6356]

She really sounds an intelligent person. No comment to the interviewer

[@litas5366]

I love history because for me it's easy but not my major in college because here in the US, you can't find a job unless you become a teacher or a historian.

[@jilianemorales2074]

lita S Most of the students who major in history in the US end up being indoctrinated in socialism. Very sad, indeed. Another thing, they rack up so much debt for a degree that is virtually useless in the present workforce. Getting a job in the academe is like climbing Mt. Everest, not for everybody and only for the chosen few.

[@jeffreylopez7933]

she is beautiful and cute!

[@RuelaNBrotheRstudio]

makinig ka ulit. sabi niya from her college department nga eh

[@genreality1184]

So what naman if she is the first female sc in history course?? Its as if it is still a shock when women achieve what a man can. Stories like these are over rated. Bakit walang interviews yung male sc's

[@carollyPh]

Huh? Was it misleading? It was pretty specific though....

[@hundsam2929]

[@Philnp272]

Giresh Giresh Lipstick matching your skin tone or your personality or age is always valid. Who can force her not to wear whatever color lipstick? No one! she can look like a clown or wear a Ronald Mc Donald lipstick color anytime she wants. People can only teach not force. Either you get it ir not. Either may sense of taste ka or baduy ka talaga.

Parang gusto tagalog na lang ang usapan dahil pareho naman Pilipino unless hindi ka nakatira sa Luzon at nahihirapan kang magtagalog. Ako, nakatira sa USA, hindi sko nag-iinglis kahit ako kinakausap ng english ng Pilipino. Bakit tayo mag uusap ng english, Pilipino naman tayo. Lagi ipina-alaala ng lolo ko nuong buhay pa na: Ang hindi magmahal ng sariling wika, daig pa ang hayop at malansang isda. Kaya lang ang mga millinials laging nag-eenglish kasi uso na dito sa Pilipinas ngayon ang english speaking.

[@jesssc402]

Ikaw yun. Wag mong itulad sayo.

[@anemari5809]

Wala naman nagtagalog sa video na 'to. Alanganaman mag tagalog siya eh english yung tanong. And alam mo bang hindi lang tagalog ang sinasalitang wika ni Rizal? Fluent din yun sa espanyol. Sa katunayan yung mga orihinal niyang akda nasa wikang espanyol. Don't take it literally kasi. Ang pagmamahal sa sariling wika ay kung paano mo mahalin ang bayan mo hindi yung hinahanapan mo ng mali kahit wala naman yung kapwa mamamayan mo. Oh and just so you know, it's millenials by the way. Adios, xiao.
