UST College of Science Journal

UST College of Science Journal The official page of the College of Science Journal, the official student publication of the UST College of Science.

The College of Science Journal, founded in 1962, is the official student publication of the College of Science. It aims to promote social awareness among the Science students in the analysis of the implications and relevance of current issues to the college and in the society at large, to serve as a means of exchange not only between the Science students and the administration but most importantly

, among the students themselves, and to provide a venue for publication of in-depth articles on the concerns of the faculty and students alike. It is also the aim of the College of Science Journal to train interested students in:

1. the proper application of communication arts

2. the basic mechanism and skills in journalism

3. the responsibilities and privileges of students as journalists in relation to the contents of the articles to be published

4. the advocacy of social consciousness and uphold the interest of the Filipino people

5. and the development of their intelligence and student leadership responsibilities

The sun was shining that day. A cloudless sky watched as we stepped past the Arch with untouched notebooks and futures too large for us to understand. Back then, we thought time was endless.

The sky cried on afternoons when rain soaked through our uniforms and pooled in our socks. It cried as we laughed, living our โ€˜Rain in Espaรฑaโ€™ dreams. The view from the grandstand of those pink sunsets after exhausting exams was a moment I wish I couldโ€™ve frozen in time. During those darkest nights, when sleepless hours and flickering lamps became our companions, the sky with its endless stars remained awake with us.

Graduation waits at the edge of tomorrow. I hope the sky wonโ€™t cry with us this time.

Soon, we will drift toward different places and unfamiliar lives, far beyond four gated walls and crowded streets, bearing pieces of each other into places we have never seen.

But the sky does not change, it is still the same sky. Above us, it remains the same sky. Still watching, still remembering, and still holding every version of us together.

The year 1940โ€”a time of uncertainty and discovery waiting to be unfolded. The clock ticked, as if chaos was waiting to spur at any moment.

It was indeed a test of faith and courage, for life itself was unsure of its destination.

Where tribulation comes, it leads the paths of new beginnings.

They tell me
โ€œGo forwardโ€
Space is empty
But it cracks my hull
Bends my antennae
Signals too fast
For my circuits to handle

So I cut the fire,
Stare at the camera
Engraved in my veins
And I tell them
โ€œItโ€™s an act of God.โ€

I pretend
there is gravity
In the mirage of a star.

Everything stops.
But I am still
Too fast

Pasma has long been colloquially perceived as a condition correlated with sudden temperature shifts and, at times, even unfairly being chastised as โ€œkadiriโ€ because sweaty hands are often considered an unwelcome phenomenon. In everyday social settings, it has also merited a certain infamy: the moment someone realizes they have linked hands with someone pasmado, romantic hand-holding may promptly transform into dreaded hand-withdrawing.
