Take a trip down memory lane.



I asked my classmates about what they put in their photo blogs. They all said that they put something about SLU - its history, the campuses, etc. Well, I want to be different. Although my blog post isn't exactly related to the description given to us (Sir Tabor basically told us to make a photo blog for SLU), I think it would be okay to blog about the people I've met and the memories I've shared with my SLU family.




-------------------------------




I want to start off with my club-mates. Because SLU offers clubs and groups you can join in, have
had the chance to make friends with other students, whether they be older or younger than me.





I like being a part of the clubs offered, like the THE (Technology and Home Economics) club, GSP (Girl Scouts of the Philippines), and much more. They hold activities often which give us chances to be social with others, and also to improve ourselves in a certain field.

Second, my previous classmates who've become good friends of mine. Being in the Science section is tough, and we never get any new classmates, which is the downside of being in a special section. That is why I try as much as possible to never loose my connections to my friends in the Regular section. Although I rarely see them nowadays due to scheduling conflicts and overloading work, I don't want to forget the times we had shared as good friends.

Third, and most of all, my 3 Mapagpakumbaba family and our honorary members (Liezel, Lianne, Joseph, Irwin, Trevor, Clarisse, Andrea S., etc). Most of us have already met each other before being combined in one section during our second year. Right now, 3Sci is mainly made up of the students from 1SciA, followed by the 1SciB kids, and lastly, the 1SciC-ers. We've all experienced what a hard job it is to stay in the Science section, being trimmed to 19 students this year. We may have a few problems sometimes, but we all work together to fix things. We don't always agree, and there is some bitterness and resentment left sometimes, but we always try to change that. How could we not? We've all been together for almost 3 years now, and we will (hopefully) be together again for our 4th year in high school.


We've had good times, bad times. Through thick and thin, we stand and put up a fight. We don't let personal matters affect how we work (most of the time), and that's why we Sci students come (usually) come out on top.



Let's take a trip down memory lane.



This photo was taken at the Science and Math exhibit in the school's attic. For the whole period, we got to goof around and have fun while trying out the cool projects made by us and our schoolmates.







This one was taken in our classroom. We were spelling random words, and Lycon wanted to spell out "Totoy," an inside joke in 3Sci.









This one was taken outside the classroom, during dismissal on the day of our Sayawit presentation. The hats were part of our costume, and we were having fun with the camera.







This one was taken at Aaron's family's house after we had our project-making there. Not really effective, because since almost everyone was there, we had too much fun. I remember our group barely doing our project (luckily we were able to pass it on time)





This one was taken at Easter Gym, during the basketball semi-finals (SLU Cubs VS UC Jaguars). This is an instance of where our ex-classmates Trevor, Joseph, and Irwin hang out with us, even if they're not our classmates anymore. I think it's great that even if they're in the Regular section now, they still visit us every day.





Okay, so maybe I didn't follow the parameters of this assignment; I was supposed to make a photo blog post about SLU, and I didn't follow the instruction, but I sure had fun reminiscing about the good times we had. Sir told us to make a photoblog FOR SLU, but I think this was better. See, my logic in doing this was to talk about some fond moments I've had because of SLU, thus implying that I am really privileged to be studying in SLU, (which is celebrating its centennial soon), and making it a sort of thank you post to SLU. I don't know, maybe I'll get a low grade for this. Nonetheless, if I am to receive a bad grade, I won't complain. I like this post. I was smiling the entire time I was writing it (tired as I was). I hope to make more happy memories like these, and I'm happy I get to make them because I go to school in Saint Louis University - Laboratory High School. :D
