You’re in the final stretch of your capstone journey, and what a ride it’s been! Whether you’re polishing your poster, wrapping up your Koach interview insights, or gearing up to post your final pubmat, take a moment to celebrate yourself.
This week’s check-in is all about you — your growth, your pride, and the change you hope to spark. Let’s reflect:
What part of your final output feels most like you? (A line, a design, a story — anything!) What are you most proud of about how you showed up for your team or project? If your capstone could spark just one change — big or small — what would you want it to be?
Your journey is powerful, and your reflection helps keep that power growing. We can’t wait to hear your thoughts!
What part of your final output feels most like you?
With our kapstone ending soon, the publicity materials feel the most like me, since I was able to apply my creativity and design style. I would also say Among Us (theme suggested by kubomate) since it reflects on my “Gen-Z’“ personality but still able to connect it with our mission. Of course, the sole mission of our advocacy also reflects my values as someone who believes in truth, awareness, and responsible use of social media.
What are you most proud of about how you showed up for your team or project?
I’m proud that I contributed in two ways: by designing the pubmats and by actively joining our brainstorming sessions. I made sure to bring ideas forward and also help turn our concepts into visuals that represented the team’s work well.
If your capstone could spark just one change — big or small — what would you want it to be?
I hope it encourages people to be more critical about the information they see online and to value fact-checking instead of being “marites”. Even small actions like this can create a bigger culture of awareness and responsibility .

Our logo definitely is what feels most like me: a plant. A cute plant. Kidding aside, it’s something close to me because it’s whimsical, ever-changing, and inspiring. Plus, I aspire to be more appreciative of nature. Am I talking about nature?
What are you most proud of about how you showed up for your team or project?
I think I’m proud of sharing my creativity to this project. I’m happy that I got to have a platform where I can show a little bit of my silly side hoping I can be a little more confident in what I can do. And in what more I can grow.
If your capstone could spark just one change — big or small — what would you want it to be?
I hope our capstone could simply let struggling young adults like us, to know that they’re not alone and we want to keep them inspired in their growth journey as people and as leaders. I once saw a post basically saying that what keeps us inspired is each other. Like that quote, I hope we can lead such positive change in our own and in other people’s mindsets that this life is too precious that we have to keep going, and growing, because who knows what potential we have in ourselves that could make someone’s life a little bit better. #TAYO

What we came up with may look simple, but we believe it carries something bigger. For me, the part that feels most like me is the way our capstone recognizes and insists that small initiatives can spark something big. That even in efforts as simple as summarizing lengthy texts or designing infographics, we can encourage curiosity and critical thinking, and make the youth realize that laws and policies are not out of reach. That belief in small but meaningful change feels most like our kubo as a whole. What are you most proud of about how you showed up for your team or project?
I’m proud of how I leaned into shaping our identity and initiative, not just to make it visually pleasing but to make sure our message truly connected with our intended audience. We kept finding ways to push our graphics, our content, and even our tone until they felt intentional, cohesive, and authentic. By asking the right questions and refining the small details, I believe I helped craft something that actually speaks to and for the youth. If your capstone could spark just one change — big or small — what would you want it to be?
I’d want our capstone to fight indifference. I admit that sometimes it’s easier to scroll past anything that feels “heavy.” But we believe laws aren’t meant to be just cold texts waiting to be either broken or abided by. They’re supposed to guide us, protect us, and remind us of our shared responsibility to one another. If our capstone can make someone pause and recognize this, that realization is the change I envision. Because more often, change begins not with a grand move but with a single decision to care.
What part of your final output feels most like you? (A line, a design, a story – anything!)
The part of our final output that feels like me is definitely the stories. It’s a personal journey because I’ve faced similar struggles with academic pressure, financial stress, and balancing workloads. So when interviewing others who’ve been through the same, it felt like i was channeling my own experiences, but also amplifying the voices of those often go unheard.
What are you most proud of about how you showed up for your team or project?
I’m most proud of the way I support my kubomates, especially when it came to conducting interviews and finding ways to help my kubomates. Even when I was overwhelmed with my own responsibilities, I made sure I sill showed up for them. I’m really thankful for how considerate and understanding they were about the workload.
If your capstone could spark just one change – big or small – what would you want it to be?
If or capstone project could create any change, it would be to raise awareness of the academic pressure students face. It’s about creating a space where students can openly talk about their struggles with school stress.

I may be bias but as a video editor, our documentaries feels like me as I believe there is true impact when we see people’s lives visually and hear their voices.
What are you most proud of about how you showed up for your team or project?
I am proud of how everyone truly worked together, walang iwanan. If one could not make it, everyone will fill up the gaps and the same thing will happen the next time it happens again. Even with all the hurdles, we push through.
If your capstone could spark just one change — big or small — what would you want it to be?
I want our capstone to help students be more vocal abiut their mental struggles and shift the publics perspective of them being “mahina o mareklamo” when truly yhey are simply expressing how they feel.
What part of your final output feels most like you?
The main logo of our output. Since it is a cute little seedline like me annd it reflects myself that I am still growing.
What are you most proud of about how you showed up for your team or project?
The main output from the start to finish (pub materials, video editing, research, brainstorming and all of our ideas) since it made me feel belonged and that all of our ideas are inserted to the main output without anyone feeling lfet behing and it help me express myself and bring our imagination into our output.
If your capstone could spark just one change — big or small — what would you want it to be?
I want our capstone to inspire others and see the creativity and collaboration we put in our output and show that all ideas when combined can build something meaningful than what we could do only alone
What part of your final output feels most like you?
I think it’s the name of our capstone, “Kung Alam N’yo Lang.” I’m not really the type who’s vocal about my feelings or opinions, so that line resonates with me. Sometimes when I hear negative perceptions about me, I just think, “If only you knew what I’m going through.” It reflects that part of me that tends to stay quiet but carries a lot inside.
What are you most proud of about how you showed up for your team or project?
First of all, I’m really proud of my kubo-mates. Even with their busy and hectic schedules, they still made time to work on our tasks. For myself, I’m proud that I contributed in making our logo and in Episode 1. That was me stepping out of my comfort zone, because honestly, I sometimes doubt my abilities. It may not be perfect and I still have a lot to improve, but for me it was already a big step — and I’m proud I did it.
If your capstone could spark just one change — big or small — what would you want it to be?
I’d want it to reach the hearts of people who are silently struggling with the noise in their minds and the pressures of life. I want our capstone to remind them that it’s okay not to be okay sometimes. That it’s okay to pause, breathe, and just be still — and that doesn’t make them any less strong.
What part of your final output feels most like you?
The part of our final output that feels most like me is the story of collaboration. Before I joined KadaKamp, I used to do things on my own. I found it difficult to collaborate because I was so focused on my own ideas and ways of doing things. But throughout the journey, I learned how to listen more openly, consider perspectives different from mine, and appreciate how teamwork can bring out better results. This experience taught me that collaboration is about creating something greater together. Now I believe that people are stronger when they come together, and our work shows exactly that. I see myself in the moments where weaknesses were balanced by the strengths of others, and in the way we turned challenges into lessons. I connect with the overall message: that success is never just about one person, but about the way we lift each other up. That message is something I carry personally, and it makes me feel like I left a piece of myself in our final output.
What are you most proud of about how you showed up for your team or project?
I am most proud of how I chose to step up for my team when it mattered. There were times when the pressure felt overwhelming and everyone was unsure. In those moments, I tried to motivate the group, keep us focused on our goal, and remind them why we started in the first place. I learned in the session of KadaKamp about being a servant leader, where true leadership is not about holding authority but about serving others. A servant leader listens, prioritizes the needs of the team, inspires, supports, and uplifts others. It also means being ready to step in and do the tasks when some members are not available, ensuring that the whole group can still move forward. It reminded me that to lead effectively, you must be willing to serve wholeheartedly and take action for the good of everyone.
If your capstone could spark just one change big or small what would you want it to be?
If our capstone could spark just one change, I would want it to inspire youth to truly believe in their own potential. Often, what holds us back is not the lack of skills or opportunities, but the doubt we carry within ourselves. Through this project, I hope others can see that growth is possible and that even small efforts can create a meaningful impact. That is what I hope the participants felt in the workshop: that growth is possible when you open yourself to learning. Even if just one participant decides to apply what they learned, whether it’s improving their communication or being open to new ideas, that change can make a big difference. It may seem small, but it creates a ripple effect that can influence others and lead to bigger transformations in the future.

In my own perspective, in our final output it feels most likely our logo, since it symbolizes a house wherein we are opening pathways and providing a home of opportunities for out-of-school youth here in the Philippines. That could represent to me that even I am having a hard time looking for pathways and opportunities that could help me significantly to grow and find my way home. Thank you so much, KadaKamp!
What are you most proud of about how you showed up for your team or project?
I am very much proud of myself for stepping up in our team or project meetings since I was able to give them the floor to speak and raise their insights and comments regarding the things we needed to accomplish or tackle. As well as by making a presentation that could help our Kapstone presentation later be more smooth and informative while presenting creatively. And so, thank you so much for that, KadaKamp!
If your capstone could spark just one change — big or small — what would you want it to be?
If our Kapstone could spark one change, I would like it to have more opportunities to be given for those out-of-school youths for them to have a home and a clear pathway for their respective life. Since our Kapstone aims to guide OSY in finding meaningful learning and livelihood paths. The platform aims to mitigate the information gap by curating and sharing authentic opportunities such as local grants, scholarships, micro-internships, freelance projects, and skills training programs. And with that, we could provide relevant, timely and accurate information regarding it. Thank you so much for this, KadaKamp!
The event output objective itself resonated with me. I’m proud that I didn’t stop and pushed through the final stretch of this project despite all the odds.
If our capstone could spark even a small change, I hope it would be instilling confidence to face new beginnings. Our participants have gained skills they can carry forward, such as digital literacy, communication, collaboration, and critical thinking, which will help them navigate the world ahead.

The part that feels most like me is the story we included about how our team overcame small challenges. I put a lot of my voice into that part — the way I wrote it, the little details I added, and the humor sprinkled in. It really reflects how I think and how I try to make things more relatable and fun. Even some of the design choices, like the color palette and simple layouts, feel like “me” because I like things that are clean but still warm and inviting.
[image] What are you most proud of about how you showed up for your team or project?
I’m most proud of staying consistent and supportive, even when things got messy or stressful. I tried to help wherever I could — whether it was organizing tasks, encouraging my teammates, or just listening when someone needed to vent. I feel like I contributed not just by doing work, but by keeping the team motivated and making the process enjoyable.
[image] If your capstone could spark just one change — big or small — what would you want it to be?
I’d want it to spark a change in how people think about teamwork — to show that collaboration doesn’t have to be stressful or competitive. Even small gestures, like listening, helping without being asked, or celebrating little wins together, can make a big difference in how a team grows and enjoys the process.

The design element of our Kapstone definitely feels most authentic to me. When we chose “Among Us” as our theme, I found myself genuinely excited about creating the promotional materials because the game was something I knew well and enjoyed. Being familiar with the visual style and gameplay allowed me to bring real enthusiasm to the design process, which I think shows in the final result. It was satisfying to take something I was personally connected to and use it to make our research more visually engaging and accessible. The pubmats turned out to be both fun to create and effective at drawing people in, which felt like a perfect blend of my interests and our project goals.
What are you most proud of about how you showed up for your team or project?
I’m most proud of how I was able to bring genuine enthusiasm and creativity to our team’s visual communication. By leveraging my familiarity with “Among Us,” I helped transform what could have been dry research into something visually appealing and engaging for our audience.
If your capstone could spark just one change — big or small — what would you want it to be?
If our Kapstone could spark one meaningful change, I want it to help people truly understand the critical importance of political literacy in our democracy. My hope is that our project will encourage individuals to recognize the real power behind their single vote and inspire them to engage more thoughtfully with political information. Our ultimate goal is to empower people to sharpen their critical thinking skills, question what they hear, and resist being swayed by misinformation that can undermine informed decision-making.

The part of our final output feels most like me is about the list of scholarships because it is compiled and straightforward What are you most proud of about how you showed up for your team or project?
Of initiating progress and stepping out of my comfort zone If your capstone could spark just one change — big or small — what would you want it to be?
I would like it to be a bridge for those whose in need for what we the Kubo 4 were advocating which is the free tuition and scholarships.
