The Ilustrado is a student of Political Science in University of the Philippines Manila. His dreams are bigger and more ambitious than yours. He sees himself as someone perfect, incorruptible and superior from other human beings.
If given the chance, he would like to be the second Fidel Castro, Michael Crichton or Karol Wojtyla. In the near future, the ilustrado will be a lawyer. But his real future is becoming the Holy Father of the Roman Catholic Church.
And oh, his name is Cleve Kevin Robert V. Arguelles. But you must always call him as Cleve.

Salinggwi, UST’s official dance troupe celebrates its 23rd anniversary (founded 1985) yesterday. In celebration with their anniversary, Salinggawi sponsored its 23rd annual university-wide dance competition entitled “SayawJuan.” The competition will celebrate Filipino heritage through dances accompanied by opms.
I watched the show with my bestfriend. Enjoy naman! Magaling ang Salinggwi pero puro gymnastics ang nakita ko …. sana may streetdance! Everything is a plus dahil kasali ang mga dance troupes ng different colleges, i love the trio presentation ng One Shade Dance Squad (CFAD Dance Troupe) at group presentation naman ng Paci Rhitmos (AMV-UST CA Dance Troupe). Bored kami sa mga solo presentations eh. 
The opening number na prepared by salinggawi is good naman kaso bad yung lightings at smoking machine, masyadong makapal yung smoke effect, hindi na makita yung mga dancers buti na lang at may dalawang giant screen (one on left side, the other on the right side). Madaming tao, sikat siguro ang competition na ito sa uste.
The judges nga lang ang are puro taga ust at former members ng salinggawi, sana nagsama sila ng isang outsider para for another perspective of their dances.
C: Bakit ang mura naman, 100 pesos lang?
B: Sa UST Gym lang kasi yun, tsaka may reg fees naman kasi na binayaran ang mga contestants nung eliminations.
C: Ah, oh, ano namang masama sa UST gym? Saan ba, doon sa annex o yung original?
B: Isipin mo kung saan dapat ang isang daang piso!
C: Grrrrr! Ang init dun!
That’s the only problem, mainit! Hindi kasi aircon ang UST gym na original! Pero all in all, masaya at nakaka entertain naman ang mga presentations! Looking forward sa Sayaw Manila ng Indayog!

At balita ko required iyung mga contestants na bumili ng souvenir programs na worth 180 pesos ata eh kalahati ng laman nung souvenir program eh mga mukha ng salinggawi ang makikita mo. Samantala, 1 page lang per contestant ang nakalagay sa souvenir program pero sila iyung nagbabayad ng malaki.
