Time to Strengthen Unity College Olympics is here, the most awaited event of the school year, why? Certainly because it is the time where students can enjoy their life under the sun.

Looking everywhere, the essence of the Olympics is widely diffused in the air. Everyone is with different expectation of what the Olympics might bring. Everyone plays an essential part whether a student, a coach, a writer, a player or whatever. The main concern is, without cooperation and unity,

the Olympics will not be a success.

Apparently, we have come from a long way; preparing and organizing this event.

Now is the time to strengthen sportsmanship in every competitor and unity among us supporters. Time to show up! Time to put our best foot forward. Time to heed our roles and share whatever we have, to take part in every task; those times spent on never ending practices were now just a mere part of sports experiences.. It is about time to unveil and witness the output of this event.

2 Proud! Kau lang b pde?

May mga taong biniyayaan ng talino, pero bakit may taong biniyayaan pa ng too much confidence. Oo nga, magaling sila, medyo nag-i-stand out sa klase at sa ibang aspeto, pwedeng sabihing matalino at marami silang alam pero hindi na kailangan pang ipagsigawan ‘yun.

Sa klase sila yung, kung makapag comment sa gawa mo daig pa yung prof? sa mga school activities, sila yung pinakahuling makagets

mga test, makataas lang ng score proud na? minsan nga kahit mahirap yung test, mani lang sa kanila, edi sila na!

Pwede namang manahimik lang diba? Pag may mga hinain kayong pwedeng makaapekto sa iba.

Tsaka kung alam nyong matalino kayo at maalam, be humble na lang and don’t be too proud kasi may mga tao ding biniyayaan ng katahimikang nagtataglay ng mas malaking porsyento ng kagalingan.

Proud King & Queen .Siya yung tipong dapat tama lahat, kahit ginagawa at sinasabi nila tama lahat.

Sila yung tipong simple bumanat pero nakakaasar. Pano ba naman kasi akala mo naman alam nila lahat. Kung makapagpinpoint ng mali mo eh parang napakaperfect nila (hoy! Dahan-dahan naman! Masama yun!)

Sila din yung tipong mahilig mag compare ng gawa ng iba. Yun bang tipong, “uy mali ka, dapat ganito sa gawa ko.” (makapagcompare wagas!)

Wala namang masama sa pagiging perfectionist, kaso nga lang, kahit san kayo tumingin, hindi lahat ng makikita natin totoo at tama. Kaya hinay hinay lang. lahat naman tayo nagkakamali, kaya nga sometimes it’s a matter of reading beyond the lines. And dig down deep para malaman nyo kung ano ang kahalagahan ng tunay na kaganda-

Mr. and Ms. PERFECTionist Sino ba sila? Sila yung tipong magaganda at gwapo.

Yun bang kapag dumaraan sila nabibigyan sila ng second “glance”Sila din yung tipong syempre alam nila na maganda at gwapo sila kaya proud na proud sila sa title nila… (haha, kayo na!!), kaso nga lang sana naman gamitin nyo yung ganda at kagwapuhan niyo sa magagandang paraan.

Hindi naman lahat sa

Sila rin yung mga tipong laging intayan at late magpasa ng subject, yan ang barakada,sama sama sa hirap at ginhawa.Maraming nangangalat na katulad nila dito, samahang walang kapantay, lalo na ngayong Intrams ashan niyo para silang virus, nakakahawa nagsisimula sa paunti unti hanggang sa kumalat.

Pero isa lang ang alam ko .. masaya ako at nakilala ko ang mga katulad nila.

Intrams, Team up?

Ito yung grupong lagi mong makikitang pakalat-kalat at maingay. Yung tipong pag nakita mo yung isa sa kanila parating na din yung iba, kasi ni minsan hindi sila naghiwa – hiwalay.

Sila din yung tipong simula hanggang umaga hanggang sa matapos ang araw walang ginawa kungdi magdaldalan.

Sa kanila walang qualification, ang mahalaga basta totoo ka go lang ng go, accepted ka. Sila rin yung mga pasaway at madalas na maingay hindi lang sa labas pati na rin sa loob ng klase.

If you make every game a life-anddeath thing, you're going to have problems. You'll be dead a lot. ~Dean Smith

Sweetbabe, Heartthrob? Edi ikaw na! “Y ou Already!”

Ikaw na! Sila ung super feeling. Yan yung akala mo sila yung presidente ng campus, (as in!). Pwedeng sila din yung mahilig magsocialize para lang ipakita yung kahanginan at kayabangan nila. At sila rin yung tipong kung magsalita akala mo parang napakaperfect nila. (kamusta naman yun?). Sila rin yung tipong mahilig sena, umeksena, (gusto sa kanila lahat!). Matatalino rin naman kayo sana naman gamitin niyo sa ayos at wastong Who says he’s not inspiring?

A man of wisdom and does not hesitate to voice out his opinions but always considerate of the feelings of others. Oftentimes, we see him pass by the school corridor; plain, simple and ordinary student in school uniform. But what is the real personality behind that simplicity?

Food Corner, Food Trip!

By: Queenelyn Malagotnot

―Food is the best comforter of our stomach‖.

We usually hear this to those people who loved to eat.

The sound of hot boiling oils and the delicious smell of fresh cooked banana, patties, hot dogs, French fries, siomai and siopao spread into the air. Students who are standing, sitting and waiting for their turn to buy food while having conversation with their friends or classmates, the coming in and going out of the students are usual scene in the food corner beside the SICS building.

This food corner starts to operate this school year 2012-2013 that complete of seven stall and serves an affordable food. Students from the nearest department such as SAS, SICS and SIT can buy their meal or snack here. A quarter number of students can accommodate by the place compare to the canteens that can be found inside the college.

Some faculty member from the nearest department are also fond of buying and eating food here. The owner of each stall is nice and very approachable in every way, no wonder why all of us are fond of coming back to buy foods.

Literary Survive

By Angelica Orilla Not all the time life is bad When we stumble and fall We must learn to stand and struggle And show the world we can Saying goodbye to cruel world is a defeat Instead say hello and learn to hold on Cause life is unpredictable journey And only god knows where it leads Smile and be happy The greatest sword to survive Friends are there to stay with us all the while Let go of your doubts and have no regrets

Some of the students devour and enjoy their food while it is still warm, but not too hot, together with the juice under the tree in food corner. It is quite relaxing here while eating and having conversation. The place is not too noisy that you have to shout to hear you but even a whisper can be heard by the person besides you.

Delicious food and aroma, affordable snacks and meal, and nearest place to by food? It is all in one in the MSC-food corner!

It Will Never be the Distance

The World’s Greatest Paper

By: Rogelyn De la Cruz

By: Rogelyn De la Cruz

We‘ve been together for more than a year Encountered laughter, sorrow and fear And it just makes us even stronger, But now distance makes our love fonder.

Who will know that they exist here?

Hurrah! Let‘s toast and have a beer But do we need to celebrate?

Coz you‘ll just puke if they are enumerable.

We are now in our separate ways, Our rings remind that our love stays.

Texting and calling each other is our assurance That it will never be the distance.

Huh! Just look the way they walk Even the way they talk Guess what a great paper they are I just wish they could get far.

Kilometers, meters, hours, minutes and seconds How I wish that it‘s just as easy as eating almonds.

The distance that separate us, I know deep in my heart it will never be a hindrance.

Life is full of memory Like a song with soft melody We can feel the harmony That sees how life was meant to be

Well, it is better this way Our trust will test in a fair way Even the love that we treasure Time and space can never measure

Keep holding on For we are loved Real world is a beautiful battlefield Where you have to SURVIVE!!

.Now, my love please be assured Just hold my hand to be sure.

There will be a label in this twirl romance It will never be the distance.

Witness the roles that they portray, Oh! Sure they are the best actors in their play.

Now, listen to the way talk, Wow! The best actress in catwalk.

Do they really have the intelligence?

Or just that they want to make face?

Yeah, they are great, their roles are erasable, To every event they are available.

What a great paper they were You can find them everywhere But as you read this poem in newspaper

Have you considered yourself as the World‘s Greatest Paper?
