109 Degrees Soaring High

by John Christopher Datiles, BCR 3-1

I can see it in the stars across the sky

Dreamt a hundred thousand dreams before now I finally realize

You see I've waited all my life for this moment to arrive

And finally I believe

♪♫♩♬

I Believe.

I Believe dreams do come true.

I Believe in the what PUP upholds.

I Believe in the impossible things that become possible.

I Believe in the faith of every PUPian a good future is assured.

I Believe that what PUP have now, PUP earns it with trust and gratitude.

And because I am in the Polytechnic University of the Philippines, I Believe in myself. 

A Trademark of an "Iskolar ng Bayan"

Obelisk. The Star that centrally guides
the path of a PUPian to a better future.

The Innovating Total University that is aimed at honing minds through pure academic excellence and co-curricular achievements

As the part of this academe, I offer the song, 'I Believe'. Polytechnic University of the Philippines couldn't soar high up until to 109th degree or times if it weren't for the people who truly believes in the core principles they uphold and the heart for providing a global quality education without sacrificing so much cost. Education is for all, they believe and thus, the commitment is theirs, and having produced brilliant graduates, the pride is ours. 

Don't be scared to fly alone,

Find a path that is your own

Love will open every door

It's in your hands

The world is yours

Don't hold back and always know

All the answers will unfold

What are you waiting for

Spread your wings and soar.

Soar by Christina Aguilera

Soar. Fly high. Go straight ahead. Christina Aguilera sings with passion, and in my part dedication I give to my Sintang Paaralan.

Soaring High @109. A message of encouragement to PUPian and even stakeholders to promote an education for all, an education that fits international standards despite the facility insufficiency.

Sintang Paaralan, Tanglaw ka ng Bayan! 

Together as one, PUPian 109 Degrees Soaring High!

MASK UNRAVELLED. MUSIC REVEALED.

       You won’t have to go to Bacolod to try a Maskarra festival experience. It’s just within your reach, within the bounds of your stingy personality, within the corners of your up-to-date resources. Have you gone to PUP last August 7, 2013? Well, that’s a missed one if you haven’t. I just wanna share a Masskara festival experience in PUP. Lemme.

       It is the 12th Foundation Anniversary of the Polytechnic University of the Philippines – College of Communication that made me brought myself in there and joined the gaiety. And as part of their annual celebration, there was a streetdance organized. Arrayed in bright colors, participants dance to their graces with the festivals they are representing of. Caught my ear was the musical score of the Masskara Festival group from BABRC I-1N. Energy. Liveliness. That suggests the festival of Masskara. (Because, indeed, there is no such festival that hasn’t merrymaking or dull-spirited festivity.)And the lovely smiles that would attract and make you show yours too, it’s such an experience worth watching. It does not only highlight the beauty of our land but touches our socio-cultural values.
