What’s your course? Are you enjoying it? When you were a kid, what do you want to be? Or do you have plans of fulfilling it in the future? Are you fulfilling it?
B.S. Pharmacy. Sometimes. To be one of the champions in the Olympic game. Yes I still have plan to fulfill it more.

Is it hard balancing academics and athletics at the same time?
I can say yes, it is hard because you have to choose which is more prior. Your mind says studies but your heart beats to play as a result you are about to end in finding difficulties with your subject mostly if your course is in lined to sciences, engineering , etc and is very complicated.

You will find hard time to deal with the training schedule and classes schedule. You cannot perform them both at the same time but you can master and have them both.

How’s your studies?
Elementary and secondary – Valedictorian
College- still an academic scholar.

Any lucky charm? Where’d you get it?
None

Who are the players you look up to or any idols?
Back hand of Mr. Oscar “Oskie” Santilices U.P coach /PWU coach. A former player in the Philippine team, and former coach of RP Team.

My idol is Biba Golic of killerspin because she’s not only good at playing but she’s also hot and sexy, she is really beautiful.

Marlon Arlos started playing for the Red and Gold back in 2005. Three years later, he had won numerous awards in the National Collegiate Athletic Association, where MIT is a member school.

Arlos, as an athlete also loves to play basketball. He plays for the school of Psychology as a shooting guard during Mapua Sportsfest.

The coliseum, which is planned to accommodate around five thousand guests is estimated to be finished on 2011. The most probable start of construction will be late 2008 or early 2009.

The plan of constructing a coliseum is also in-line with the celebration of UST’s 400 years of education.

The event will have a very special guests to bring more fun.

Be there to watch each school’s players and muses vie for Mr. and Mrs. NCAA 2008 title.

EEC Summer Outing is an annual event held every fourth (4) quarter of a school year. It is an event mainly intended for EE-ECE-COE students and its alumni.

My friends from MIT-Rotaract loves to play volleyball, they found a group to play with.

And then saw other Rotarians playing modified football.

Few minutes before we leave, the sunset.

Both died from multiple stab wounds.

Police Officer 2 Alfredo Mabutol Jr. of the Manila Police District homicide division said the incident happened at around 9:30 p.m. at the corner of Urdaneta and Gen. Luna Streets in Intramuros.

One of the victims’ companions, Romeo de la Cruz, said they were on their way home after a drinking spree in a restaurant on Magallanes Street when they met a group of men, also MIT students.

The members of the group suddenly attacked them, De la Cruz said, adding that one man suddenly took out a knife and stabbed the two victims before fleeing.

Investigators said that the killing was probably a fraternity-related incident as the victims and their attackers were members of two different fraternity groups.

The two groups, however, were not at odds with each other, the police added.

The Student Athlete wen to Batangas for the EEC Summer Outing 2007.

Upon arrival, the trees was obvously beautiful.

It was a long walk.

But it was all worth it.

Just to have fun with water.
