Errata: In yesterdays’ issue August 24, 2011 the news article “Nexus knots ring net for Bullshark” is a Volleyball Men game not Basketball. The news article “Nexus bags awards in Vocal Duet and Song Writing” is a Cultural Competition and not Academic Competition, Mr. Manoos and Ms. Sager in the vocal duet category got the 1st place and not 1st runner up.

In SAS we stand

to be corrected !...

In the Academic Competi-tion 2011 Debate category SAS Debaters had shown un-defeatable arguments making them to have a very thin chance to win against the E-nnovators; they were proclaimed 1st place.

In the first match Nexus debaters inhibited Artisans to continue their defending their side that made them win on the issue of ‘opening classes in September instead of June’. Nexus debaters moved ahead to Semi-finals versus Matrix and made it up to the final round against E-nnovators. Still Aivan Vincent Garniel made his opponent mouth shut for a second on his em-phatic backfire of “Yes, it’s legal but do you think it’s ethi-

IN MY POINT OF VIEW by Sarah Jane V. Alim

The whole MSC has been

excited as the 2011 MSC

Olympics opened. Students,

faculty and even the

outsiders have their best

team to support. Audience

shouts, annoys the team

they don‘t like and cheers

f o r t h e i r f a v o r i t e ,

TAEKWONDO.

W e a l l k n o w t h a t

TAEKWONDO is quite

serious and dangerous

game, one who plays this

has to control his anger and

learn to be patient. In this

game, the player might be

physically injured seriously.

I salute to those ladies who

love this game. They are so

strong and they have all the

guts joining this kind of

game. They are really an

―idol‖. Most men say they

won‘t choose a girl who

knows taekwondo because

they are afraid to be kicked

and hit by them once they

get mad. We all know that

most of the girls are

temperamental, they can‘t

control their anger, and so

boys are afraid of them.

Yeah; it‘s really true. It is

really horrifying, but then,

s h o u l d n ‘ t t h e s e

ladies idolized and admired

by every woman? We should

be proud of them. They are

not afraid to fight even with

boys although they know

that they might be hurt

seriously.

Many want to learn this

game to protect themselves,

but others would remark

why would they want to

learn this game if they know

that they would be hurt. But

my father said that why do I

need to work hard and give

much effort if there would

be boys who could protect

me in times needed. Well,

that‘s his opinion, but for

me, why should I depend to

others if I know I can do it.

Besides, we are all equal in

God‘s eyes, if the boys could

do it, we, the girls can also

do it. Let‗s make those fe-

male taekwondo play-

ers as our inspiration. We all

know Gretchen Malalad

right? She‘s one of the most

successful and idolized

f e m a l e t a e k w o n d o

champions in the country.

She got the Gold Medal, and

we too can do it also. Well, if

we know how to accept our

mistakes and follow the

rules of the game, we‘ll

succeed.

―The MSC

Olympics 2011‖ by: Nieva and Agapay

―It‘s not about winning or

losing the game, it is how you

play it, without giving them a

pain…‖

Being a part of MA-

RINDUQUE STATE COL-

LEGE OLYMPICS 2011- 2012

is like getting back in the

time that we‘re in high school

life, even though we are in

college now. MSC Olympics is

not only about competition

but friends and classmates

are considered the best part

of the event. It‘s like, giving

students a chance to take a

rest and to have a break

from serious and hard study.

The event was about to

end and most students

would surely remember the

precious memories they‘ve

spent. Athletes of different

units gave their best to win

as well as the Nexus athletes

competed hard to grab gold.

Students also showed their

support to their respective

units.

Many viewed the MSC

OLYMPICS 2011- 2012, a

true success, a tired but a

happy one.

Sportsmanship and

self- confidence are the

character traits that a true

athlete should possess.

Fearless Nexus by: Marian Ruth Nabos

For every competition we play

We all fight to have a prize to gain

Not the money or trophy

But the prize that we could bring to

our society

No matter how difficult it is,

We’re still here to fight and can’t be

defeated

Despite all the pains that we’ll

encounter

We stand and never surrender.

We successfully travel a long

journey,

With the guidance of our Almighty

He never ever leaves us no matter

How hard it is to fight and

conquer.

Panibagong rekord na naman ang naitala ng koponan ng Nexus’ Volleyball Women matapos tam-bakan ang Team Artisan sa iskor na 25-5.

Sa unang salang pa lang ay nagpakita na ng gilas ang Team Nexus. Matapos matalo ang kalaban sa 1st at 2nd set. Medyo uminit ang labanan makaraang ibato ng Team Artisan ang bola na naging dahilan upang mag-abot ng iskor ang dalawang koponan.

Samantala, hindi naman umubra ang depensa ng kalaban sa team Nexus.

Bagaman malayo na ang agwat ng puntos, pinilit pa rin ng kalaban na makahabol, ngunit sa huli, team Nex-us pa rin ang nagtagumpay.

“Teamwork really works,” ang sabi ng coach ng koponan na si Mr. Nolito Ruiz- “It is the only thing we need when it comes to games.”

Ipinaabot naman ng grupo ang kanilang pasasalamat sa mga taong walang-sawang sumuporta sa kanila.

Artisan Tinambakan, Nexus Tagumpay!
