My research experience at the University of Santo Tomas - Legazpi City feels like a Trial By Combat from Game of Thrones. I had to fight for the things I have learned from my professors in research. I had to fight for my research advisees. I had to be a champion.
My opponent had an armor, a shield, and a knight's OTD. I needed protection.
Combat 1: Ad Hominem
Wala naman siyang alam sa tourism, bakit nyo siya kinuhang adviser
Combat 2: The Bully
Nagmura ka! Binully mo Siya
Combat 3: RIP Informed Consent
Combat 4: Reputation
Advser ka pa man din
