010. Leadership Forum

Were you able to watch ABS-CBN's First Leadership Forum last Sunday or last May 11? If not, then here's your second chance. I mean, our second chance. Let's all watch the Second Round of the Leadership Forum on June 5, 7pm at the University of the Philippines School of Economics Auditorium.
It's a battle between Estrada, Lacson, Legarda and Binay. The event is open to the public but seating arrangement is on a first come-first served basis.
Sino sasama? Pupunta talaga ako. :)

011. MaSci
My younger brother, Arvin Arguelles is now a MaScian. Yess! HAHA. And I'm a bit nostalgic. He told me his first ever MaSci experience and i quickly recalled mine. Grabe. Miss ko MaSci.
"As we gather, may Your spirit work within us ..."
And a new subject for first years? Consumer's Mathematics. Ano kaya 'to? Math na naman. Gah.

012. Back to School
June 8 is the official start of classes in UP Manila. (Inangkin ko ang date.) HAHA. And I do think this also applies for all college students. Or may exceptions? Well, I'm really excited. Excited because
.. it's the first day of "kuwentuhan"
.. of Economics 11. Econ, here I come! :)
.. I will see my BioChem Anaks again!
.. i just love being in school. Naks nomon!
.. of PolSci 14. :)
I'm excited. It's the whole UP-PolSci experience that I am missing.

014. FBCs
Congratulations! But are we really doing well? I'm thinking otherwise. HAHA. Joke lang! Sturdier than Ever, that's all I can say. :) I'm so happy that I'm now a part of this family. Friendly friends, handa kayoo. :P

001. Tony Blair delivered a speech in Ateneo. Tell you what. Its free and open for the public. Grrr. Well, open for the Ateneo public.
He also delivered a speech in Sofitel. This one for La Salle. And the seats here are quite expensive, no, expensive pala talaga.
SAD. Ang underprivileged at unfortunate talaga ng mga UP students sa ganitong bagay. :|

002. Nakakaluha. I watched the video of Indayog's Nike Competing Team. Galing! And I misssss dancing. What made me sad eh yung video by Kuya Bab. Aww.
***
003. I can't sleep well because of the effing MATH 11. Arrrg. Grabe! This one will be an epic failure for me, if ever!
***
004. My UP Manila Webmail account is already working. HAPPPPPPPY!
***
005. I hate those who underrate UP Manila. Really. And what's so surprising is that those people that I'm talking about are currently in UP Manila. They'll be shifting in Diliman next semester. I hope they get in there. I don't want them here naman.
And another thing, they also hate Political Science. Well, I have nothing against to those who hate PolSci. What made me hate them is that they are in PolSci right now. EFF.

An End (MSHS IS GONE)
I just want to end the issue na ginawa ng post kong Manila Science HS is gone. Pero I'am not saying na may sinabi akong hindi totoo. At kelangan natin kumilos.
If you can remember sinabi ko na sinabi sa akin ng isang guro na gagawin ng Araullo HS Annex ang MSHS. Hindi iyon isang literal na pagpapalit pangalan o kahit ano pa mang mangyayari na isasama o gagawing Araullo ang Mataas na Paaralang PangAgham ng Maynila. Sa mga sinabing iyon, nais lamang niyang iparamdam sa akin kung ano na ang kinalalagyan ng ating mahal na paaralan ngayon. At ganun rin naman ako, nais kong maramdaman ninyong lahat iyon.
May mga nagsabi ng kanilang mga kuro-kuro ukol sa aking post. Bakit daw nadamay ang Araullo? Hindi lingid sa kaalaman nating lahat na madalas ikinukumpara ng ating mga guro ang ating mga maling gawain sa Araullo. Parang ganito, "Ano to? Nasa MaSci ka. Gawang Araullo yan ah!" Madalas kasi itong banggitin sa atin dahil sila ay malapit sa ating paaralan. Tumatak lamang sa ating isip na mas mataas tayo sa kanila hindi dahil masama at hambog tayo kundi dahil sila ay regular at tayo ay isang science high school. It's very clear. In general, no one would say that a regular high school is equal to a science high school.
Paninindigan ko pa rin ang lahat ng aking sinabi o isinulat o ipinublish sa blog na ito.
1. First class were changed from the normal 7 am to 8 am or sometimes 10 am.
1.Must be subject to further study. There may be benefits, but definitely disadvantages in moving time to 8. Anyway, as far as I know, (kindly correct me if mistaken) Pisay starts as 8:30, but maybe its a concession to the dormers there. Their classes also end commonly at 2 pm.
Personally, nakakaasar at nakakainis na hindi na 7 am ang pasok ng ilang mga mag-aaral. Nung ako nasa MSHS, sobrang pahirapan ang paggising sa umaga. Palagi akong huli at palaging napapagalitan. Akala ko rin yung pasok na maaga e walang maidudulot na maganda sa akin. Pero pagdating ko sa college, nag pay-off naman sya. Dito kasi sa aking pamantasan ... may mga patakaran sa pagiging late o huli sa klase. Gusto kong malaman ninyo na madami ang na-drop sa class namin na 830 am dahil hindi sila sanay sa maagang pasok dahil nasanay sila sa dati nilang mga paaralan na tanghali/ di gaanong maaga ang pasok. 830 pa yun ah. What more kung 7 am yung class na yun? We have to sacrifice small thing for a better future. Yun na yun.
And Pisay don't start at 830. They start at 7am and end at roughly 4-420 pm.

2.Matagal na yan =)
Oo nga bombarded tayo, pero natatapos naman natin, di ba? Nagcoconcessions din naman sila kung talagang mejo matindi na ung carpet bombing.
As far as I know, may quota ang pisay sa daily assignments. I just do not know the exact workings of the system, pero possibly adaptable din yon.
Sa college ... walang quota ang assignments! Walang quota ang requirements at kahit isa lang ang assignment mo ... kailangan mo naman ng madaming hakbang para magawa/matapos iyon. Sa akin, nakatulong talaga ang napakarami na assignments nung high school ako. Hindi ako na-schock/na-pressure sa kahit ano mang dami na dapat gawin nung nasa college na ako. Lahat talaga ng mga paghihirap sa MSHS mababayaran sa kolehiyo. Paghihirapan natin talaga ang lahat. Natatandaan ko pa na super late akong natutulog dahil sa dami ng gawain ... pagdating sa college ... hindi nako nahirapan na mag stay ng late sa paggawa ng mga assignments.
3. As far as i can remember, natanggal na ata ang RWE sa sophomore eh.
Maganda rin na talagang science and research oriented ung mga subject, hindi puro etchos lang.
I disagree eh. Don't worry ... I respect your opinion. Hindi lingid sa kaalaman nating lahat na ang mga nagtatapos sa MSHS ay kumukuha ng iba't-ibang kurso pagdating sa kolehiyo. Mayroong kumukuha ng kurso na Bachelor of Science at mayroon namang Bachelor of Arts. Hindi kasi required sa graduates ng MSHS ang kumuha ng isang BS course kaya unfair kung magiging science lahat talaga ng mga asignatura. Ako mismo ay nasa field ng Arts, kinuha ko ang kurso ng Agham Pampolitika. Nakatulong sa akin ang napaka rigorous na training sa science at ang semi-rigorous training sa arts field. Napakabalance tuloy ng kaalaman ko. Mahihirapan kasi tayo kapag nagfocus tayo sa science at iwanan ang ibang field dahil sa college kahit science ang course mo, you still have to take subjects in Arts and Humanities field. The same way with Arts courses na kailangan pa ring kumuha ng subjects sa Math and Science and Technology field.

5. This is so true. Natatandaan ko pa yung sinabi niyang mga section eh na nasa sophomores pero ayoko ng banggitin.
One of the things na hinahanap sa isang magandang school ay ang student number sa isang class. Kahit anong institution ang goal eh, pababain ang number of students sa isang class. Dahil nga isa tayong science high school, dapat lang na magawa natin ito. Kaya mga 30 students per class ang ginawa sa MSHS. Kaya ito ginagawa para matutukan ng guro ang lahat ng mga mag-aaral sa one-on-one basis. Alam niyo ba na as stated by THES na isang research group ... ang ideal number of students sa isang class ay 15? Masayang isipin na kahit malayo tayo sa ideal, masasabi kong isa tayo sa pinakamalapit sa ideal number na iyon. Pero bakit natin pababayaan na maging 60 students sa isang class?

UP won!
It was a fresh victory for UP Fighting Maroons Men's Basketball Team on their first game on the 71st season of UAAP. UP was expected to win since NU Bulldogs were a no-match to hungry players of UP Fighting Maroons. Most members of the UAAP commitee agreed on that thing as they were interviewed after the game. "Ang UP Centennial nila, naghanda yan, hindi basta basta magpapabaya." Taken from an interview with one of the commitees.
People haven’t forgotten their winless performance last year, and have used this to dismiss this squad as this generation’s version of last generation’s NU. However, the UAAP has a way of turning the tables on unsuspecting individuals.
A simple win is good, a couple of wins is momentous, but getting into the Final Four is nothing but a miracle for the men's basketball team of UP Fighting Maroons. he ya! Mananalo kami! ASA. =)
Too bad ADMU won. T_T Animo LA SALLE!
UP FIGHT!
[matatapang, matatalino, walang takot
kahit kanino, hinding hindi magpapahuli..
ganyan kaming mga taga UP!]
