Magkano pamasahe sa jeep noong undergrad kayo?
Down memory lane…
Let’s take a trip back to LB with the ubiquitous jeepney. PhySci, BioSci, Baker, Women’s, Men’s Dorm (or Men Dorms, according to my blockmates who stayed there), AnsSci, Agronomy, Maquiling, Rural, St. Therese, PLDT… these are some of the destinations students usually go to. And since UP Rural High School has transferred to a new location, no more Rural. No more PLDT either as it has been replaced by DA-BAR. Now, it is CSI. Ever experienced “battling” it out with students who live near Raymundo Gate because you live at Ilag’s Compound? Back then, jeepneys have the option to go right to Raymundo Gate or to go left to Ilag’s. I used to live at Ilag’s Compound then. So once I get on the jeep I usually tell the driver I’m dropping off at Ilag’s, loud enough for other passengers to hear. Drivers usually prefer turning right to Ilag’s. And do you recall when you asked the driver to bring you to Audi? It is now Umali Auditorium. Ans students call it Umali (and I thought Umali meant Umali Subdivision!). I can also recall that you can actually ask the driver to bring you up to the library. Now, you either drop off at BioSci or at Coop. Hence no more jokes about the freshman who asked the driver to bring him to the library, “second floor, ho”.
From 25 centavos (or even lower) to 6 pesos student fare, the jeepney ride is really part of every UPLB residents life.

Please post your comments. Salamat po.

batch 2000 ako…
P3.50 pero i kinda have to disagree with reisyn. i still paid P5 or less for my jeep fare. however, when i graduated last 2005, pagbalik ko sa lb after a few months, naging P7 na ang pamasahe.
un lang.

September 16th, 2006 at 4:52 pm
Naghahanap ako ng alumni na inabot ang 0.25 ang pamasahe…
October 4th, 2006 at 9:43 am
Batch 98 ako. Siguro mga 4 pesos yun.
Matanong ko lang, magkano naman kaya ang blue books nung undergrad kayo?
October 4th, 2006 at 4:23 pm
0.75 pag sinabi mong istudyante ka, piso pag hindi, o kaya pag nag-bingi-bingihan yung driver. 90-xxxxx
October 4th, 2006 at 5:01 pm
naglalakad ako!
October 5th, 2006 at 10:01 am
P2.50! yabang ko pa ngang manlibre eh! tapos naging 3.25 pa alis ko mahal na. hahah! (ayokong sabihin — mahuhulaan kungilang taon akong naextend. teehee!)
October 5th, 2006 at 11:06 am
oo naglalakad ako kasi i used to live at Cendana’s Dorm in front of AgEd. E nung freshman ako wala masyadong jeep na nag right-turn at the UPLB gate..it was difficult to get a ride if you lived on Kanluran compounds–(Santos’, Dawis’, Ynalvez’, Villareal’s, Velasco’s, Rosqueta’s, Cendana’s and Student Center) because the jeeps on this route were already full with people going to UPCO or Jamboree. The road in front of RETELCO (which the PLDT building used to be called) going to BioSci did not exist yet and there was only a concrete walkway….so most of the time, the Kanluran folks had to walk (di ko na rin kasi matandaan ang pamasahe….he he….definitely lower than PHP 1.00!)

Palagay ko ako na pinakamatanda na nag post dito… 15 centavos nong freshman ako (1978). I remember, with my 20 pesos i can go home to Dagupan City (Pangasinan) via air con PANTRANCO bus. Pag balik sa LB dami ko dala pagkain. I need to leave Dagupan early kasi last trip ng BLTB from lawton parang 5 pm pa
October 13th, 2006 at 10:50 am
P1.25 din. P1.00 naman blue book.
October 13th, 2006 at 11:10 pm
Batch 78 ako, di ko matandaan masyado pamasahe nung freshman ako, parang 15 centavos lang, but among other things, 27 pesos ang bayad sa dorm…nakakatwa kasi para iakyat yung jeep sa driveway ng men’s dorm, tatanungin muna ng driver “men’s?”, tapos me sasagot na mga babae “meron!!!” Coed yung men’s dorm dati, ngayon ba? maraming naninilip ng maniac doon sa likod ng Unit C…paggabi, dinig na dinig kaluskos…nakakatakot kaya pagnag-uuwian mga roommates ko, nakikitulog ako sa 2nd floor…. mura pagkain sa YMCA and pinakadabest, fried chicken and mongo sa Ellen’s…..palaging double screening sa Agrix, triple pag anniversary nila….2.00 ang isang kaha ng marlboro, 15 pesos yata isang kaha ng san miguel beer
October 26th, 2006 at 7:42 am
50 centavos pag student, 75 pag hindi.
whatsuplb, start ka ng isa pang thread, on bluebook naman, just like what 91-@#$%& mentioned.
91-@#$%& ang swerte mo naman sa student number mo, madaling tandaan
February 3rd, 2007 at 5:32 am
i remember i used to pay 75 cents when i was still a freshman in uplb. i was batch 89.
March 8th, 2007 at 8:11 am
Grabe na talaga itinaas ng pamasahe. Batch ‘04 ako. Php4.50 lang binabayad ko dati sa jeep kase estudyante. Tapos i went on LOA for 3 sems. When I got back, Php6.00 na daw pamasahe. I always had a bunch of 25cents pa naman dati so that those drivers who usually lie that they don’t have change for a 5peso coin can just give me a buck tapos bibigyan ko syang dalawang 25cents.. Hehehe. Sigurista!
May 10th, 2007 at 1:29 pm
yes P1.25 nga ata. yoko maglakad. kahit mens dorm to physci… - batch 90
May 13th, 2007 at 12:14 pm
7 pesos na pamasahe at pag weekends, walang student fare!
May 15th, 2007 at 9:48 am
Just to give you an idea during my time in LB. When i transferred from Diliman to LB, my parents gave me a weekly allowance of P100.00 or P20/day (monday to friday). This already includes fare (to & from Paranaque/Pasay) which, if i remember right, was P1.25 one way. this was during the mid 70’s. Cely’s was the in-place for meals at grove. the bowling lane (beside hongkong grocery??) was still in business. Sexy and Pogi’s grocery was the place to get your midnight snacks if you do not have enough for toyang’s pancit canton at crossing.
lots of memories!!!
July 26th, 2007 at 10:12 am
P1.25 in 1993! blue book at P1! men’s dorm bulok (unit 1, yes, the fire hazard)- P90/month. i was livin la vida Harry Potter pala!!!
July 26th, 2007 at 10:16 am
oh, hi! this ain’t related to this thread but maybe u can replace the banner picture to a uplb photo instead of that autumn scene. thanx!!!
August 3rd, 2007 at 5:56 am
Mang Pogs na pala ang tawag ke mang pogs mid 70’s pa lang? ahehe. kakatuwa… 1.75 fare nung freshman year ko. anyways, nasakyan nyo ba yung jeep na makaluma? pang limahan lang ata per row. tsuper nya e laging mainit ang ulo, at laging nanghahagod ng pasahero.
September 2nd, 2007 at 12:57 pm
haha… nakakatuwang magbasa ng mga posts. I had my high school in rural. Rural was still in front of St. Therese. We started that the fare was only 50cents. naaalala ko pa sa halagang P5.00 malilibre mo na lahat ng barkada mo pag magp-PE sa Baker.
October 25th, 2007 at 4:16 pm
batch 95, 1.25. pero umpisa na ng pagmamahal ng mga pamasahe nun. pati kwekwek sa bidani sa may likod ng CHE at sa may physci ay nagsisimula na ring tumaas noon! tapos yun, nawala. naglahong parang bula.
October 28th, 2007 at 7:14 am
It was 50 cents for students back in ‘88, but I preferred walking from grove to human eco bldg.
October 31st, 2007 at 12:36 pm
1.00 to 1.25 if I remember correctly.
December 5th, 2007 at 4:25 am
1 peso to 1.50
paminsan nag 1-2-3 ako. sakay na hindi nagbabayad. kung magtanong ang driver. sasabihan ko na kanina pa ako nagbayad.
kaunting beses nag 4-5-6 ako. hihingi nang sukli maski hindi nagbayad. isang beses lang ako sinuklian.
January 9th, 2008 at 4:26 am
