'Gems' From Facebook!

hey hey hey guys! What's up?

Anyway, I'm so excited to post these few treasures I've found from an AB Eg student named Renuel Fallore's facebook album.

Tell me what you think about them on the comment box below.

If you ask my opinion I must say these are really awesome pictures! AB Eng students are really quite talented in different areas. Haisst this is my frustration. I wish I can take pictures like his too.


"I'm not alone. I'm just in Solitude"




When studying gets tough we need tougher support.




antique?




Indeed.




This is a phase of every college students' life.




The Flag.




The shaded pathway in front.


These give me different feeling about UCC.

"Life is like photos. Your perception of it depends on what angle & point you view it. "

So what do you think?

Pscyh 2011 Seniors' Retreat

Last March 2-3 2011 the BS Psychology seniors/graduating students of both main & Camarin campuses held their retreat at Caliraya REsorts in Laguna. It was an awesome place. I think the amount we paid was all worthy. Sulit na sulit kumbaga. We stayed there for 2 days & one night. It was really memorable that I think all the pictures we had are all THE BEST. I will surely go back to that place. By the way, aside from the retreat we also had our final defense for our thesis. I can't say more words about it since I think words are not enough to describe this experience..so let me just share some pictures.

here they are:



[when we were about to swim. When we woke up that morning the sun was greeting us with a very sweet Hello. Everything was green & very idyllic]



[This was taken when we just arrived at the resort. We were preparing to get settled on o ur designated rooms]




[about to go home. Prof. Carl Dellomos in the middle. parang classmate lang namin.hanapin mo na lang siya diyan]



[take 2]



[The part of the retreat where we read the letters given to us]

A Message to The New Crossroads!

Dear 'The New Crossroads',


Madami po akong suggestions na sana'y bigyan niyo ng pansin. Dito ko na lang po ipapadaan kasi lagi namang sarado ang bagong gawa niyong OFFICE.

Malaki ang pangangailangan sa impormasyon di lamang ng mga estudyante ng UCC pati na rin ang mga nagnanais na maging UCCian. Since kayo naman po ang tinig at palahaw ng bawat yusisista bakit di po niyo gawin ang inyong papel? Speaking of papel...well it's been a long-standing tradition for our school publication to release newsmags and a literary folio every school year. I really appreciate that. Pero dahil sa super late po ang release ng mga ito..kadalasan e di na timely ang balita o article. Matagal ng lumamig ang balita bago pa po ito mapasakamay ng mga estudyante. Ang suhestiyon ko po para dito ay ang paggamit ng mga bagong makinarya like a website. We all know na may bayad po yun so why not resort to blogging sites? There you can post pictures & videos in real time. Nakikita ko po sa FACEBOOK ang mga nakakatuwang video posts ng AB Eng students ng Camarin...it was entertaining & really fun to watch. Sobrang dami pong advantages. It's timely, cheap & easy to publish/update. Alam ko po that some of the people in your org might have already thought about this..so I hope you consider it. Maging active po sana kayo!! Sana kahit papano e magkaroon ng katuparan ito. Ito na lang siguro ang maiiwan ko sa UCC. I'm not sure if I will grdaute this coming April but if that happens I won't be able to update this site anymore. So I guess mas lalong mangangapa ang mga estudyante.

Ang concerned student ng Camarin,
~Mai Nipin

A Letter from a Proud UCCian!

Isang dating (siguro) kaeskwela ang nagpost sa blog na ginawa ko sa WORDPRESS.
He narrated the hardships, discrimination & triumph he experienced in searching
for
a job after graduation as a UCC alumnus. Seen below is his mail. Let's read
it & be amazed.

Note: The mail you are about to read had been edited for
some grammatical errors but still contains the same meaning.

"I am Red, an irregular BS Crim student. I would like to share my success as
a UCCian. I've been working at Manila Ocean Park for almost 2 years now.
Inspite having too many competitors in applying as an In-house Marshal, we still
managed to be one of those 250 successful aspirants applying for the said position
together w/ my classmate Vrian Alegarbes. And I still remember that one of panels who
interviewed us asked me if what school I've attended. I said from the University
of Caloocan City, and she replied, "Ahm ok, never heared ha", and just laughed
in front of me. I told them that it's not the name that counts, its the knowledge we
learned in our beloved institution.
"Why dont you just try us, to believe us?".

So far, we are 3 UCCians in a 6-man roster of Manila Ocean Park In-house
Marshal and I am playing one of the most vital roles in Security Operations as a CCTV
and Radio Base Operator which is the so called the HEART and SOUL of the entire
operations, while my 2 fellow UCCian's (both of them are my classmates) are
those who do the Daily Security Report (Day/Night Shift)
that is passed on to the TOP official of the Company. Sharing this story is a
motivation and encouragement to my fellow UCCians to be proud and also to raise the
flag of our beloved institution, University of Caloocan City. Hope it will be
posted on our school journal, thanx and god bless."

My Message to RED:

Hi Red,

I hope you don't mind me editing or giving your letter a little touch. I hope your
wish is fulfilled even though this is not the official school journal. Thank you so
much for sharing your story.Good luck to your future endeavors! Make us all proud^^

Yours sincerely,

Mai Nipin
