All It Takes Is A Whole Heart
“When there is no enemy within, the enemies outside cannot hurt you.” ― Winston Churchill
For three years, this has been the highlight of my stay here in UP Manila Biology. And now that I am about to graduate (sniff, sniff), I bet this one will be should be the most memorable - well, actually every year is memorable.
Yep, that is the theme. Oh, Biotechnology.
My batch mates and I (well, actually the ever-awesome batch photographer Jamie) thought of changing our FB cover and profile pictures at the same time! So the succeeding pictures are some of my vanity shots.
Awesome watermark designed by Steph. Gahd, when will I ever learn to use Photoshop?
So after all the dramatitis (drama) we had last Friday 'cause huhu we lost :( Yes, I am sad but I am not bitter (the Juniors deserved the crown because they did great). Forever scarred because of this. Oh, don't get me wrong. After a weekend of sadness, I am now okay and ready to move on.
Let me quote some of my batch mates (I hope it's okay, don't get mad pls)
And for my drama, HAHAHA! (Na I bet will be a comedy). I am so proud of you guys you danced with your heart, kitang kita ko ang saya niyo sa gilid ng stage hehe yun lang, sobrang okay na.. hahaha! nalungkot lang ako kasi yun nga, I know binigay niyo na lahat.. tas ganun :)) hehe pero either way, we put up a great show. Let's be a loving batch to the lower levels, sabi nga nila, We already have their love and respect. Ayon, Great job! I love you guys so much!! One Batch. One Legacy. - Kevin Cuisia, the ever awesome Batch Choreographer
Fact is, we were defeated. In the competition. But in reality, we were the ones who gained something greater than becoming the Biogyugan 2013 grand champions. At least we saw the younglings soar higher, right? and that's a great sight. To see the next generations become better and better. - Raymond Pineda
A big hug for everyone >:)< Ang dami nating pinagdaanan as a batch at hindi naman maikakaila na naging mas malapit tayo sa isa't-isa. Hindi man tayo nanalo, ginawa naman natin ang ating makakaya. Cheer up! I love you guys! - Karla Kim, Leader/Awesome Choreographer :))))
Everything happens for a reason. Maybe, just maybe, kailangan nila yung championship to get what we already have. Kasi tayo, with or without the championship, eto na tayo ehh, buong-buo, ONE BATCH. Yes we have our differences, yes we argue, we fight, nagkakatampuhan, pero at the end of the day, we know na magiging okay ang lahat kasi tayo 'to eh, ONE FAMILY. We don't need that championship to earn respect. *bleep*Ed's note: apparently censored pala dapat ung kasunod *bleep* Walang makakapantay sa #PUSO na meron kayo. Stay strong. Stand tall. Move forward. Be epic. I love you guys! - Jamie Bolinao, Best Photographer-ever :)
Now you will see a sort-of 'crown' in the pictures. Well that is the retrieved crown from our performance back in first year where we won the 2nd Place (first time in the history of Biogyugan)!!! So it really has sentimental values. Caution : some vanity shots ahead.

My friends just like this pose - I don't know why. I think it is awkward...
Oh, just something green :)
A dramatic pose... hmmm, I look exxxxtra weird. =.=
My original pose -THE BITCH PLEASE-DON'T MESS WITH ME-POSE :> but then again... I changed my mind... So...
Eventually, this was the pose that I used as profile picture :) I just loved how my hair became red and the strands in a wave.
