The Manila Science High School, a Philippine public school with a special science curriculum. A school that sends out the future leaders of the Philippines. A school that provides education with some subjects advance for 1 year at the least. Amazingly, students of this school can keep up amidst their 2-4 science, 1-2 math subjects and such. A school that not only provides quality education, but also instills proper values and discipline to its students. A place I can call "My School"
This is not a post saying good bye to this school. I just want to make one. This is my blog. So... Mind your own business :)
This school year 2006-2007 was surely one of the best years I experienced as a high school student. I've made more friends, tied ends with my enemies. Though I can honestly say that I've made some enemies but still, I hope to tie friendship with them once again.
I've experienced the hardship, the joys and the sorrows of the third year life.
I've experienced the events that start only as a third year such as the Junior and Senior Promenade which was held on the 16th of February, 2007.
I could never forget what happened in this school year. I experienced many things in a span of less than a year.
Joy.
I've met new friends in my batch this year. Among the Linnaeus, some people became very close to me. Some of which are Juvy, Angelo, Ken, Matt, Ellis, Denesy, Ana, Wendelle, Patti, Karell and others too. I believe that they are only a few of the people I've met this year. I also enjoyed the times when I fool around with the people I've mentioned above. It gives me such a warm feeling that I could never have felt before in Masci. I've improved my ties with my former sections. I enjoyed the feeling of triumph as we went and won on various competitions with the chorale. I felt the joy of dancing with the people I really care about during the prom. I felt the joy of singing. I felt the joy of accepting loss (Refer to section codename).
Rejection.
Mood Swings. A moment in adolescence where we become emotionally unstable. A moment that sometimes made other people irritated. To the people I affected, I send you my sincere apology. I felt rejection when there are times I celebrate the joys lunch alone (sarcasm). I felt rejection when I fought with my friends. I felt rejection when I feel that no one appreciates me or whatever I do for them. Though I know that I am trying to take my swings away.
"Family" Bonding.
This year, there came a time where I felt really close to some people. Sometimes I would refer them as "nanay", "tatay", "kuya", "ate", "anak", "kapatid". My school mothers are too many to mention. They showed me maternal concern as if they are ready to be real mothers. Some of which are Patti, Christine, Hannah, JJ, Patchie, etc. Along with my mothers are fathers of whom they love. I dare not mention them here for I fear the incoming phone threats etc.. etc... and etc.. For my brothers, these are the people that made me feel complete. I've never ever felt the concern of a brother, bigger or smaller.They are Kuya KJ, Kuya pH and Julius. I tell them things I dare not tell anyone. They know me well enough to answer enough questions about me. For my big sisters, they are the ones I know that have been there for me during my mental breakdowns and such. They would always tell me to move on. Along with that, a gentle pat on the back or a hug full of concern. Some of which are Leslie, Ate Francia, Ate Clauds, Ate Kalen and Steph-e. Some of them may not realize this, but I really do treat them like my big sisters. My daughters. These are batch 09'ers that always greet me with energized "Tatay, Daddy" etc. etc. etc. Some of which are Anna, Loj, Shark, De. Haha. This may sound cheesy but I felt the joys of children through the <laughs>. Now for my siblings. These are people who I treat special among the my batch and the lower batch. Some of which are glazylee, erica, choog, ella mae, jason, etc. :D Oh Yes. I forgot. Wives. These are people who treat me special as I would do to them. They are Wendelle So and Nerissa De Guzman. If I have forgotten some of the people, do Inform me so that I may add your name to my list.
Love.
I couldn't really say that love this year was a piece of cake. It went around the roller coaster. Sometimes going up and sometimes going down. Everytime I would see them, my face would heat up though thanks to my very dark color, no one would notice me going red. did silly things a person in love would do. I hide everytime I see her. I would sometimes pretend to read something as not to catch her eye. Though I can say that sparks really did reborn and some fade. then what faded would then reborn. I felt tranquility as I danced with them during the JS promenade. Tranquil nights and Tranquil emotion, only experienced when I am in their presence. I know that once felt something which later faded. But through sudden realization, the spark came in once again. I am confused. Suddenly I see myself picking a path in the fork road. The girl I once liked but soon faded only to reborn once more or the girl I loved since the first step I took in masci. Tell me now if you think that love isn't confusing.
Camaraderie.
"In the four corners of the majestc room 308 of the pallatial bordner buildingg, live a fraternal band of young intellects. under the supreme guidance of the Divine Datu Zaldy, they continue to dream and believe that they are following the path to the glorious end. Despite their continuous record breaking... losing... streak!! They the Linnaeus people will strive for victory... They will send their enemies toppling at their feet.. For they ae undefeatable.. indefatigable.. unstoppable losers of today,, champions of tommorow". By now you'd be laughing. That is us accepting who we are. We are united amidst the trials <ahem> that we face all the time. We would work together and have fun. Though we would always lose at competitions. We firmly believe that contests are about having fun. For the choir, these people are the ones who changed my life forever. The taught me that MaSci isn't really all study. We would sometimes leave behind our school works to fight for the glory of the school which we would pick up where we let it fall. I felt the joys of fighting and winning competitions. The Choir and my sections really made me feel the importance of being in a group.
GCness
Who could really name someone in MaSci who never became GC at least once in MaSci. The Mascians are striving for excellence with their very strict grading system. Though we would sometimes be faced wih teachers who follow the art of the Dartboard System or sometimes consult their ever hidden crystal balls. Anyway. Who would not be conscious when they get a grade of 85 below or maybe even below their target grade?
Groupings
Now with carol fests, sabayang pagbigkas, interschool competitions, I found myself working with my friends. We helped each other out at the same time having fun. Who could ever forget the sneaking-during-weekends-in-paco-park escapades that we mascians never failed to do. It isn't disobedience that we students practice during weekends though rules specifically says that such practices are not allowed but the fact that we are to concerned with our studies to put concern to such activities (yuck).
Now... those are only some of the hundred things I experienced during my third year life.
What really happened in MaSci this 2006-2007 that I know was stamped in our hearts
1. The time when we are not to stay in our homerooms anymore and we are forced to walk around masci. Though it did make a good exercise (for me anyway)
2. When our dear principal err.. ex principal... "Mama Sita, Rosie, Hershey, Rusita, Rose etc etc" Rosita Herson left the Manila Science High School premises and left for a bigger school somewhere I dare not know.
3. When we got Mrs. Salud S. Sabado in exchange for Mrs. Herson. She was nice. She even supports the choir 100+% :D She also cares for the welfare of the student's academics and virtues.
4. When we "enjoyed" the Family Day (hey.. you can't really say that you enjoyed it... but hey... at least we experienced it for once).
5. When the Miss Earth, Unang Hirit, Studio 23, Y-Speak etc visited Manila Science Highschool.
6. When we enjoyed the wonders of Foundation Day, Math Camp etc.
7. When Manila Science launched its website
8. When Manila Science brought home golds, silvers, bronzes and trophies from various competitions.
9. Prom night
9. etc. etc.

I'm Maki Mitsuhashi
Half japanese, 1/8 chinese, the remaining Filipino...
Certified bosconian, mascian, zaranianz, paulinger-z and linnaeans loves to play sports(basketball, soccer, martial arts, swimming etc.) and computer games... loves to surf the net and make a complete fool out of my self. Cheerful, funny, complicated and careless... I roam the earth looking for something I could not find.... I am drifting slowly to insanity and stupidty... care not of what I say for only some parts are true.
I like to read novels and such that arouse my interest. One thing you must remember is never to pique my anger unto you or regret once you feel something stab you
