Getting accepted in the UNIVERSITY OF SANTO TOMAS
was a huge step for everyone. We got through the entrance
exa,minations,
personal interviews(ANO???!!!) that made us wonder if we really wanted this that bad.
Nevertheless, we completed and submitted the necessary requirements and
thought of nothing but the words -
"I
AM IN!!!!" PASOK!!!!! OK!!!!! THIS IS IT!!!!!
HEHEHEHE!!!!! ISANG KUROT NGA!!!! AT BAKA AKO NANAGINIP!!! YEAH!!!!!! WOW!!!!
UST- PT....
JUNE1987 - this was the moment !!! Remember the
line?? - "You are the cream of the crop!" on the first few weeks??.
(HUH!!!???!!!) We had hoped to get occasional reprieve during
semestral breaks , holidays and summer vacations.
BUT that was to be the SIGN for the TIMES to come.
This meant that for FOUR YEARS we would be hitting the books and studying until our
eyeballs would pop out of their sockets(ARAY!!!). It meant serious business
knowing that we would be introduced to Mr. Comparative Anatomy, Professor Philosophy and
Ms. Psychology. What about Dr. Physiology along with her husband Mr. Neurology.? ( A
fine pair, we might dare say!) Hey , remember the BUFF Mr. Thera-Ex.?? Have we
forgotten anyone else? (Madami sila - hindi ko na maalala kung sino ang
nauna!
hehehehe .. Litong- lito na ako!)
Pop quizzes, midterms,
practicals, lectures were
to be the daily dosage for everyone (like it or not - we needed them!) The dreaded
REVALIDA!!!!! AAAAAAHHHHH!!!! STRESS was synonymous to PHYSICAL
THERAPY. All we wanted and yearned for was to make it and be the best.
Did we have lives then? How did we do it?
BALANCE!!!!!!! - the key to everything.
STRENGTH !!!! - of mind and body was a PLUS.
We developed our entire being by being holistic
with our approach. We have memories - tons of them .
Here are some PICTURES to show how we dealt
with the daily pressures, problems , situations and just about anything with regards
to what was important to us - our studies, friends, families and matters of the heart..
and soul.
Have fun reminiscing and re-discover life before
