'It's okay not to be okay" kasi trust me you will experience breakdowns, you will be physically and mentally exhausted in the learning process and stay ninyo dito sa UST. May mga terror profs rin na bawian niyo nalang sa teacher's eval (char!) Pero don't lose heart kasi marami kang makikilalang akala mo ikaw lang nahihirapan and mababait na blockmates/shoolmates na soon magiging friends mo rin <3 Ayun lang! we're welcoming MAD 5 JUNIORS with an open arms and enyoy you're stay here in UST! #GoUste!🐯

Sheesh we're seniors na?! Parang kelan lang kami yung winewelcome ngayon kami na ang may bagong batch na iwewelcome 😱. Anyways just wanted to say na wag nyo hahayaang maging disconnected kayo sa sarili nyo, just like what the other post said Mental Health >>>> Acads. It can be really tough and intimidating at times being surrounded by amazing, talented, and sometimes better individuals than you, pero please take the people around you as inspiration to do, and be better. Don't see them as ka-kompetensya kasi kayo kayo lang rin ang magkakasama, makakaintindi sa isat-isa, magtutulungan, at magcocomfort sa isat-isa especially during times when you'd need it most, and I tell you those times will always come. It will definitely be a hard journey pero just don't forget to enjoy it! Super hirap ng adjusting stage pero alam kong kaya at kakayanin nyo yan! Wag kayo mapanghinaan ng loob! Dito lang kaming seniors nyo! Go fight madcats!!!! 💜🐯

Hii first of all good luck sa incomingGrade 11 natin, ang bilis ng araw🥹 Advice I would give is to prioritize yourself before anyone sa acads or sa life❤️. Kapag may mga heavy work load, idivide nyo sa smaller tasks tas tignan nyo yung pinaka mabilis or malapit sa due na gawain HAHAHA. Try out the organizations na you really want to try, it could lead you into better opportunities. Matulog kayo if kaya 🥹and be physically active kahit papaano para di kayo ma-burn out. Ayunn GOOD LUCK, and take care!

kahit super daming mong workload, always find time for self care!! as long as you're healthy mentally and emotionally, kakayanin mong makasurvive this school year :D dont always strive for perfection and allow yourselves to make mistakes, its normal to make mistakes and keep in mind that there is always room for improvement. Also get out of your comfort zone if kaya, grab this opportunity to make new connections and join orgs! it can greatly help in the future :D ayun good luck and hope that your stay here will be bearable XD

hello 11mad5!! 1 year lang pagitan natin pero it may be daunting na sa UST na kayo!! i know i was, sobrang intimidated ako kasi ang laki ng campus and ang raming tao!! more than i was used to dati!

don’t worry about finding friends, nahirap talaga ako since naturally introverted ako. i worried a lot pero i found a best friend in and a friend group that made me feel comfortable. people will come and go pero your orgmates and blockmates will be there for you din! hindi lang ikaw ang naghihirap sa acads, ang raming mong people to ask from like us seniors !

grades aren’t everything din. syempre mad students tayo, so baka magkaroon kayo ng problems with stats and mga formulas TT pero please never give up. always talk to your profs regarding your grades kasi andyan sila lagi, and good profs don’t want you to fail. ask for extra work you can do para iangat grades mo! pero if wala, accept it and move on. it doesn’t matter if you fail. what matters is how you bounce back from it. 4 quarters tayo, so bawi lang nang bawi!

art and studying is hard to balance. i know this kasi so many times i’ve been burnt out 😓 it’s easy to conflate art with schoolworks. if you feel like you’re not improving, compare your past works from what you are able to do! find things you’re good at and make sure you’re having fun doing them! what’s the use in realistic compositions if you’re unhappy with your work? explore a lot and take breaks din. rest is needed in work!

for the orgs, they’re fun, pero make sure you are committed and willing to sacrifice your time for them! aside from that, you’ll meet a lot of people with the same interest as you, kaya go lang!

good luck 11mad5 <333
