Confession of a scholar/student assistant

Being a scholar is not easy. Though everyone else think that we are very lucky and fortunate enough to study for free in a prestigious school like La Salle, honestly it’s not that easy. Hardwork and perseverance is what you really need. Worse, scholars do experience lots of pressure. We have to maintain a GPA of 2.0 every term (actually it is not that hard if you will study). We are also limited to have three 0.0 grade during our whole stay in the university. If we do fail we will be the one to pay for the tuition and other expenses for the second take of that subject we failed. And what others do not know we are required to work for the university to give back the investments that they had for us. Either we become a research assistant for a professor or a student assistant for a certain department that we will be assigned with. I chose to be a student assistant.

As a student assistant I’ve experienced working with 2 departments in the school namely, Bussiness Management Department and the Yuchengco Center. BM dept was pretty fine but they gave us really heavy works like doing a data set out of a bag of survey sheets. I also worked under the chair during those days wherein I was required to write a paper for him. huh.. So I asked the sfa admin if they could assign me with other department. Thus, I was assigned to my dear Yuchengco Center. And I spent the rest of my stay in that dept.

Now that I am graduating, This term would be my last term of service. I will miss my ates and kuyas in the department. hehe..(sipsip).

But before ending my service I had my despedida party kuno haha…thanks to the free food… parang naging tunay na party haha…

me and ate chris

me and kuya leo

me, ate ai and kuya leo

Thanks ates and kuya. It’s been nice working with you…

Unfortunately Miss Aleli was not there and I did’nt have the chance to take a pic with Dr. Osteria. Ate Maricel just resigned so she missed it. Kuya Aron, Mr Fujimori and the former researchers were not there anymore so I have’nt got a chance to see them in my last days…hehe

PS: credits to ate ai for the pics…

Forget About Me by Little Bit

Since I had my blog here in wordpress, I’ve noticed that most of my hits are from the mp3s or song lyrics that I’ve uploaded. So starting today, I will try to share some of my favorite songs, mp3s and lyrics.

Here is Forget About Me by Litte Bit. This was my LSS (Last Song Syndrome) yesterday. I just simply love the words and the melody. Try listening to it. Enjoy.

Forget About Me

Little Bit

Hmm
Whoaaa
Oohhh
Yeahh

You said it wasn’t
Gonna be like
It was before
Then it happened again
Pushing me back
Out the door
Thought it would be
For real this time
Love me forget
About the signs
So now what do I do
Now, that I know
That we’re through

Wish that I
Could move on
Can’t let go
It’s too strong
Just like that
And then you’re gone
Is this how
You wanted it to be
Everything you had to say
Sent the tears
Right down my face
Now I’m trying to escape
The misery

[Chorus:]
Why don’t you love me
The way I loved you
It feels so crazy
Cause I dunno
What I did to you
If you’re gonna hurt me
Then do it quickly
Cause I’m tired of cryin’
If you don’t wanna
Stick around
Then, baby
Forget about me

Too late, sorry
I didn’t even
Have the chance
You said you were happy
Baby
I don’t understand
Gave you everything
You asked for
And was ready
To give you a lot more
I would’ve given
The world
Right in the palm
Of your hand

Wish that I
Could move on
Can’t let go
It’s too strong
Just like that
And then you’re gone
Is this how
You wanted it to be
Everything you had to say
Sent the tears
Right down my face
Now I’m trying to escape
The misery

[Chorus]

Boy
My heart was true
And that you can’t deny
Don’t be a fool
And walk away
From all the lies
It’s up to you
Cause heaven knows
I’ve tried
Tell me
You’re still in love
Yeahhhh
Ohh

[Chorus]

Forget about me
I really loved you…

Move on!…

That’s what I just told my friend who consulted me about his heart problem. No further statements about that problem cause I love my friend and I don’t want to betray his trust. Haha. So for my friend, now I know why he likes me to sing this song. Don’t worry I’m already practicing and memorizing the song so that I can sing it in frontof you and say… Move on!!!

Oo nga pala, hindi nga pala tayo
Hanggang dito lang ako, nangangarap na mapa-sa’yo
Hindi sinasadya
Hahanapin pa ang lugar ko
Asan nga ba ako? andiyan pa ba sa iyo?

Nahihilo, nalilito
Asan ba ‘ko sa ‘yo? asan ba ‘ko sa ‘yo?
Nahihilo, nalilito
Asan ba ‘ko sa ‘yo? aasa ba ‘ko sa ‘yo?

Naiinip na ako, naghihintay sa ‘yo
Masakit na ang ulo, kailangan bang lumuhod?
Gusto ko lang naman, yung totoo
Yung tipong ang sagot
Ay di rin isang tanong

Nahihilo, nalilito
Asan ba ‘ko sa ‘yo? asan ba ‘ko sa ‘yo?
Nahihilo, nalilito
Asan ba ‘ko sa ‘yo? aasa ba ‘ko sa ‘yo?

Dahil, ‘di na makatulog
Dahil ‘di na makakain
Dahil ‘di na makatawa
Dahil, di na

Oo nga pala, hindi nga pala tayo
Hanggang dito lang ako

Nahihilo, nalilito
Asan ba ‘ko sa ‘yo? asan ba ‘ko sa ‘yo?
Nahihilo, nalilito
Asan ba ‘ko sa ‘yo? aasa ba ‘ko sa ‘yo?

Nahihilo
Nalilito

Chris Tiu @ Blogspot

I always thought that popular people, such as artists, athletes and politicians, do not exists in the cyberworld and only appears on tv and magazines. I assumed they don’t have friendster, myspace, multiply or blog accounts coz they are afraid of their stalkers? And I guess, would want to have some privacy. And if they have, it might be a fake one or just for fun and fans… haha

But…

Oh come on, they are still people. Though they are already a public property, some are yet generous to share their daily life experiences through the cyberspace just like what I’m doing now.

Rejoice!! I got the link for CHRIS TIU’s blog. Thanks to my stalking capabilities. Though there are many other guys who are more good looking than him, he is still my crush. Though I may be cheering for the Green Archers, since I’m a Lasallians, I still do watch Ateneo games on tv…haha…

So here I would love to share his blogspot. I thinks he is the one managing his account since I know he is an intelligent and honor student, his blog entries are not written like a pro and are really very long so he must be fund of writing.

—> Chris Tiu’s blog

Though I believe its him, I will still verify it through my reliable sources…haha…

PS:some other blogs are just in the cybernet to research..haha

some are just in the right side of this blog just click it there in my blogroll.

The Ten Conyomandments

Got this from teddy’s multiply. Though it might be a funny entry for others, it’s a reality. Lasallians are commonly mistaken for being mayabang na mayaman. (That’s not true!!! Take it from a Lasallian, we’re just proud of our school and we’re rather confident than mayabang.) Worse, some are being irritated by the way we speak. (Don’t get me wrong cause the Katipunan based people do too). But in reality the conyo way of speaking is just part of the Lasallian culture. Though we don’t really notice it, we spoke it like our mother tounge. But don’t be mistaken, not all Lasallians speak the conyo way.

So here it goes, for the Taft and Katipunan guys and gals. The Ten Conyomandments…Enjoy!!!

The Ten Conyomandments by Gerry Avelino and Arik Abu (taken from Menagerie: Features Section of The Lasallian)

1. Thou shall make gamit “make + pandiwa”.

ex. “Let’s make pasok na to our class!” “Wait lang! I’m making kain pa!”

2. Thou shall make kalat “noh” and “eh” in your pangungusap.

ex. “I don’t like to make lakad in the baha nga, noh? eh, it’s like, so eew, diba?”

3. When making describe a whatever, always say “It’s SO pang-uri!”

ex. “It’s so malaki, you know, and so mainit!”

4. When you are lalaki, make parang punctuation “dude”, “tsong”, or “pare”.

ex. “Dude, ENGANAL is so hirap, pare.” “I know, tsong, I got bagsak nga in quiz one, eh.”

5. Thou shall know, you know? I know, right!

ex. “My bag is so bigat today, you know?” “I know, right!”

6. Make gawa the plural of pangngalans like in English or Spanish.

ex. “I have so many tigyawats, oh!”

7. Like, when you can make kaya, always use like. Like, I know right?

ex. “Like, it’s so init naman!” “Yeah! The aircon, it’s like, sira!”

8. Make yourself feel so galing by translating the last word of your sentence, you know, pangungusap?

ex. “Kakainis naman in the LRT! How plenty tao, you know, people?” “It’s so tight nga there, eh, you know, masikip?”

9. Make gamit of plenty abbreviations, you know, daglat?

ex. “Like, OMG! It’s like, traffic sa LRT!” “I know, right? It’s so kaka! Kakaasar!”

10. Make gamit the pinakamaarte voice and pronunciation you have para full effect!

ex. “I’m like, making aral at the Arrhneo!” “Me naman, I’m from Lazzahl!”

On the side of me by Corrine May

For my first blog entry here in wordpress for my second account, I want to share a song from Corrine May, which served as the inspiration for my blog’s title. I liked her song On the side of me. It is about a person, despite the imperfections of another person, still choose to love him and stay with him. On the side of me is a song of friendship. A friend who will not leave his friend in times of trouble and misery. A friend who is always with him despite the odds. Who is this friend? He is the one up there. Whatever we do wrong, He will never ever leave and willalways forgive us. My blog and I would be living in His purpose.

On the Side of Me

Corrine May

I’m not the easiest person to love
I’m often the one who lets things go unresolved

Yet you choose to be
On the side of me
On the side of me
Yet you choose to be on the side of me
On the side of me

I’m not too proud of some things
I’ve done in my life
The skeletons in my closet
Are too big for me to hide

Yet you choose to be
On the side of me
On the side of me
Blessed Charity
You’re on the side of me
On the side of me

Everyone needs a friend to hold
When it’s cold outside
And there’s no place to go
Everyone needs a friend to hold
All alone I cried
There was no place to go
I remember when nobody cared
But you

I’m not the easiest person to love
But you, you’ve opened your heart to show me what I’m worth

‘Cause you choose to be
On the side of me
On the side of me
What a mystery
You’re on the side of me
On the side of me

Everyone needs a friend to hold
When it’s cold outside
And there’s no place to go
Everyone needs a friend to hold
All alone I cried
There was no place to go

I remember when nobody cared
Nobody cared
But you…

Yeah you choose to be
On the side of me
On the side of me
