Born Maroon
- Luntian at pula, Sagisag magpakailanman
- Ating pagdiwang, bulwagan ng dangal
- Humayo’t itanghal, giting at tapang
- Mabuhay ang pag-asa ng bayan
- Mabuhay ang pag-asa ng bayan.
Yes, there is and will always be more to life. But for me, never will I feel as thrilled, fulfilled, and free as my being an iskolar ng bayan. My eight years (since high school ha!) in the university is my life’s best time yet. Mahal na mahal ko ang peyups. I love all the memories – the fear, the sleepless nights, the professors, friends, acquaintances, the lessons, the pain, the Block C, the smiles and the loud laughs, the uno and the singko, the crushes, the organizations, the buildings and tamabayans, the groupwork, the 1st time experiences, the fishball, the banana cue ni manang, the bilyaran sa Camputhaw, Bb.UP, the bluebook and tons of readings…If I am to put it all in writing, I will never finish. So to you, my beloved alma matter, isang magara at mayabang na sentenaryo.
Thanks for all that has been, and for all that will be, because of what you have made me.
