JACINTA IS A PROFESSOR FROM PAKIL, LAGUNA.  LEONOR VALENZUELA- WAS RIZAL’S NEXT DOOR NEIGHBOUR WHEN HE STAYED IN THE HOUSE OF DONYA CONCHA LEYVA IN INTRAMUROS. EVEN WITHOUT A SPECIAL OCCASION, RIZAL WOULD ALWAYS VISIT VALENZUELA’S HOME AND IMPRESS HER FAMILY WITH HIS CLEVERNESS AND SLEIGHT OF HAND TRICKS.  LEONOR RIVERA- DURING RIZAL’S UST YEARS WAS WITH LEONOR RIVERA,THEY MET IN 1879 WHILE HE RESIDED AT A BOARDING HOUSE RUN BY HIS RELATIVES. RIVERA WAS THE GREATEST INFLUENCE IN PREVENTING RIZAL FROM FALLING IN LOVE WITH OTHER WOMEN WHILE RIZAL WAS TRAVELING OUTSIDE THE PHILIPPINES. A TURNING POINT: BRUTALITY AND RECOGNITION  VICTIM OF INJUSTICE- DURING HIS FIRST SUMMER BREAK FROM UST, RIZAL FACED AN ACT OF BRUTALITY.  LITERACY RECOGNITION- DESPITE THE PERSONAL SETBACK, RIZAL FOUND SOLACE AND RECOGNITION IN HIS WRITING. HE WON A LITERACY CONTEST WITH HIS POEM “A LA JUVENTUD FILIPINA” (TO THE FILIPINO YOUTH) A CALL TO HIS COUNTRYMEN TO EMBRACE THEIR POTENTIAL AND BREAK FREE FROM LIMITATIONS. HIS ALLEGORICAL PLAY “EL CONSEJO DE LOS DIOSES” ( THE COUNCIL OF THE GODS) ALSO WON HIM CRITICAL ACCLAIM. RIZAL’S EDUCATION AT THE UNIVERSITY OF SANTO TOMAS (UST)  RIZAL, ALONG WITH OTHER FILIPINO STUDENTS, FACED RACIAL DISCRIMINATION. THIS CONTRIBUTED TO A SENSE OF ALIENATION AND FRUSTRATION.  DESPITE THESE CHALLENGES, RIZAL REMAINED A GOOD STUDENT, PARTICULARLY IN MEDICNE. HOWEVER, HIS ACHIEVEMENTS WEREN’T AS OUTSTANDING AS AT ATENEO, WHERE HE CONSISTENTLY EXCELLED.
