The much awaited event for the opening of MSC Olympics 2011 was the Cheer Dance Competition. Contenders from different departments showed off their best choreographies. Team NEXUS won the third place in the competition the first time team NEXUS was included in the top 3. The second contender to perform, team NEXUS displayed their artistic and dynamic Las Vegas -like festival performance. With their pink fairy-like costumes they made their dance move so powerful

that made the crowd even more excited. During their performance the crowd could not help but praise them and conclude that the young department would be in the top 3. They said “may laban ang SAS”. Ending their performance is a loud cheer of N-E-X -U-S what do we need TEAMWORK – which is the meaning of the department team name, unity amidst diversity.

Cheer for a Toast The first ever held solidarity night for the 2011 MSC Olympics was held at the canopy of the admin building. This was exclusively attended by representative for each of school/ department - from college teaching and non-teaching staff, supreme student council representative to department heads the goal of the event. According to the college president the occasion is to unite everybody despite competition reminding everyone that they are just one school aspiring to be a university in the future. The highlight of the event was the toast cheered by the college president. Everybody enjoyed the party till 10:30 in the evening. Arianne Kaye Sager and John Andro Fermin

Sa unang set, nagkamit ng 25 puntos ang Nexus at 22 puntos naman ang kabilang panig. Ipinakita ni Jhenyvi Valles at Madelyn Lleva ng Nexus ang malakas na spike kung kaya‟t hindi nasalo ang bola ng kalaban. Gayundin ang matinding “pleasing” ng team leader na si Johanna Eunice Maling kaya laging nakakapuntos ang Nexus.

Sa pangalawang set naman, bumawi ang Matrix at dahil dito nilabas na nila ang kahusayan sa kanilang paglalaro. Naging matindi ang paglalaban ng bawat isa kung kaya‟t ang nakuhang iskor ng Matrix ay 25 samantalang 22 puntos ang nakuha ng kalaban.

At sa decision game, nag-init ng husto ang mga manlalaro ng bawat kupunan at sa hindi inaasahang pagkakataon nilampaso ng Nexus ang Matrix sa iskor na 25 puntos at 10 puntos sa kalaban. Walang nagawa ang kabilang panig kundi tanggapin ang kaunaunahang pagkatalo. Nagging maayos at kapana-panabik ang resulta ng nasabing laro.

Ayon kay Johanna Eunice Maling ang team leader ng

sinuman ang makakatalo sa aming grupo dahil ang Nexus ang tinaguriang kampeon sa larangan ng volleyball.” Ipinahayag din ng grupo na sila ang pinakatanyag na manlalaro ng MSC. Dahil noong nakaraang taon sa tuwing gaganapin ang Intramural Meet ang team ng Nexus ang laging nagwawagi sa palarong ito. Umaasa sila na makamit muli ang tagumpay na kanilang pinaghirapan.

Ang mga manlalaro ng Nexus ay binubuo nina Johanna Eunice Maling, Karin An de Villena, Madilyn Lleva, Lyndel de Luna, Jhenyvi Valles, Magie Labrador, Janelyn Jandusay at Ma, Marineth M a g a l i n g .

Ang mahuhusay na panlaban ng 3rd year at 4th year BS Lead. Dahil sa kanilang pagkapanalo malaking pasasalamat ng kanilang butihing coach na si Mr. Nolito Ruiz, SAS Faculty na walang sawang sumuporta sa grupong ito. Sila ang mga estudyante ng 3rd at 4th year ng Engineering Department na binubuo nina: Danica Nantes,team leader, Azalea Perillo, Ruby Rose Manuba, Mary Ann Enriquez, Jenny Babe Merencillo, Mary Rose Logdat, Mary jane Perez at janet Lyn JawiSa kabilang dako, bagama‟t magagaling din ang team Matrix, hindi naging sapat ang kanilang ipinakita. Sa tulong ng kanilang coach na si Engr. Robert Lamonte.

Sports spirit… revived Once again, units, teams from the MSC main campus and satellite campuses have gathered for a purpose to play and finally stand out among the rest. In every corner of the College, one can obviously feel the spirit of the Sports Olympics---- athletes on respective venues competing; some busy with their serious practices, officials on their respective tasks, student-journalists covering news and passers- by roaming around. As one sees it, a phenomenon is very much far from issues like examination, lengthy quizzes, projects and researches. But from now, these stuffs are meanwhile forgotten, giving attention to College Olympics „2011 with sports, cultural and academic competitions.

In games, conflict may arise from various factors. This may be worst if not properly handled. It is in this situation where a sound communication between athletes and officials is very essential. In this event some may not give way for any conflicts. Let‟s learn from it! Today is new state, a chance for a change and further improvement.

Sabi nila………ni Chenney at Emilinda “Okay naman ngayon, with cooperation kasama na pati ang Dean. Maganda kasi may uniform na.” - Junnel Layag (Nexus) “It did not meet my expectation.

Magulo ang schedule. Siguro dahil na rin yun sa weather kasi paulan-ulan. Papalit-palit ng venue yong ibang events. Kung positive naman, okay naman, masaya kahit papano. Good thing din naisama yong sa academic para at least naenhance yong abilities ng mga estudyante.” - Angeline N. Fajarito (Blue Flames) “Ganun pa rin sa dati. Wala naman nabago. Ang nabago lang eh yong pagkain..” -C.E 4(Matrix) “Mas maganda kesa dati. Kasi mas maraming events..”

- Comp.Eng,4 (Matrix) “ Ok, masaya kahit paano, masaya kasi panalo sila..”

-C.E 3 (Matrix) “ May time na boring, may time na masaya. May mga laro na kahit gusto mong panuorin eh wala naman siyang katuturan.

Tapos yong panahon pa masyadong mainit..”

- E.C.E ( Matrix)

“ Hindi nasisiyahan, boring.

Hindi siya ganun sa inaexpect nila na may mga kakaibang event.” - BEed 1, Karen (Blue Flames)

“Para sa akin mas maganda yong dati, kasi ngayon parang hindi nila masyadong napaghandaan.”

- I.T 4 (Artisan)

“Ayos naman enjoy sa mga laro. Well organized naman yong mga games. Nasusunod naman yong mga sched. Ng mga games. Sa tingin ko naman enjoy yong mga students.”

“ Masaya kasi yong mga players nakikipagparticipate. Hindi ko nagustuhan yong cheerdance ng engineering kasi masyadong delikado.”

“Mas maganda yong mga nakaraang intrams keysa ngayon. Kasi parang hindi sila gaanong prepared ngayon, tsaka yong weather, hindi masyadong maganda.

“Boring, parang walang masyadong tao hindi katulad dati - AB Comm 4 “ Hindi masyadong masaya at hindi ganun kasigla. Ang iniisip ko lage, pagkatapos mag sign uwi na kaagad. Kasi boring.”

“Okay lang nman.Masyadong busy. Boring. Tapos yong attendance ang tagal. Marami ding hindi sumali sa mga events. Yong iba hindi nakikipagcooperate sa halip mgadate. Yong mga nagalaro sa oval, wala man lang nagacheer kasi ngaFB lang sa labas yong iba. - Info.Tech.3 (E-nnovators)

- B.S.I.T Elec.1-D (Artisan) “ Okay lamang dahil masaya, madaming babae. Ganun pa din naman ang mga laro walang bago maliban sa beach volleyball.”

- B.S.I.T 3-D (Artisan) “Okay naman, masaya din, kaso parang kulang sa games.

Isa pang problema eh yong C.R masyadong malayo.”

- FISHERIES 3 (Bullshark) “Sana kung magdidesignate sila ng mga camp, sana binigyang diin nila yong sa mga palikuran. Isa pa yong sa mga games, sana yong venue nung mga games ay hindi na iniba ng place. Kasi hassle sa biyahe at pamasahe pa kaya yong ibang players nadidefault. Sana kung ganung sa ibang lugar, nagprovide sila ng mga service for the players.”

- FISHERIES 3 (Bullshark)

Sabi naman namin……..

Ikaw kaya try mong makipagparticipate. Don‟t isolate yourself, magenjoy ka na lang. Wag ka na lang masyadong bitter kung „di ka man kasali. Kung trip nila makitrip ka na lang din. Pakiiwasan ang PDA masyadong malawak ang mundo para solohin n‟yo, magshare naman kayo.

Bato-bato sa langit, tamaa‟y sapul! Freedom of speech nga

“Limit ng Kalayaang magpahayag” ni Aloren Jagong

Sino ka para pigilan ako Magsalita’t magpahayag ng mga nalalaman ko Tao ka rin lang naman sa paningin ng tao Na may kalayaan ding paringgan ang mundo.

Wala namang masamang magbahagi Basta’t alam mo ang mga sinasabi Sa puso at isip ng tao ay ipaintindi Mga katagang lumalabas sa iyong labi Iwasan mong makasakit ng ibang damdamin Lalo na ang ating kapwa’y mga maramdamin Kaya naman iyong pakapiliin Ang mga salitang gagamitin Isiping mabuti ang mga ipapakalat Anumang balitang dapat mong ilipat Sa papel, sa telebisyon, sa radio nilalapat Pananagutan at responsibilidad ‘di maaampat Paringgan ka man ng ibang tao Isa lang ang ibig sabihin nito Isa sa mga sinabi’t sinulat mo Panama sa kanyang ginagawa mismo!

‘Wag na lang pansinin mga Lito Lapid Isipin mo na lang serbisyong pinahahatid Sa publiko, sa bansa at sa mga kapatid Garantisadong pasasalamat ang isinasambit.
