The CSB Experience: From USTe with LUV (The ANIMOfication of the Benildean Thomasians)

    Meet Joseph, he is a behavioral science major, a Thomasian 106(my version of the Lasallian batch system applied in CSB), a UST uniform-clad lad and a student of the University of Santo Tomas...then. Today, he is a Hotel, Restaurant and Instituiton Managament student, a 2-termed 107, and my classmate in Algeb-x who wears a long polo.

    Meet Monica, a student from UST, and a certified tigasin. Today, she is an HRIM gal and wears a formal attire complete with a black coat. In other days, she wears a Chemlec/chemlab uniform complete with white crocs-like clogs. and yeah, she's my classmate from Algeb-x. She has a friend who is, somehow, a Thomasian as well.

    Meet Paolo E., a Biology student, certified math genius and supposedly a 3rd year(?) student from UST. Today, he's also an HRIM student. Seen always with a coat-and-tie attire (formal) in some days and as well as wearing his Chemlec uniform. A classmate of mine in Algeb-x.

    Meet Paolo L., an Archicture student from UST, certified Thomasian forever. Today he's a BSBA-CA student (Bachelor of Science and Business Administration in Computer Applications), and still a certified Thomasian at heart. He's also a classmate of mine in Algeb-x.

    Meet Paolo C., a UST student, a friend of the abovementioned. Today, he is a student pursuing a course under SDA (School of Design and Arts) and my classmate in Algeb-x.

    Meet Angela, a behavioural science major in UST, another supposedly 3rd year Thomasian. Today, she is a formal attire-clas HRIM student currently serving her 2nd term in the school. She's my classmate in Algeb-x.

    These are just some of the many Thomasians that I know who became Benildean Transferees. They make up almost the majority of the CSB transfer students, just neck-to-neck with those from La Salle. There are many reasons on why they transferred, it's either 1)"It's hard in UST", 2)"My girlfriend broke up with me in UST", 3)"I can't seem to find the satisfaction I need from UST", etc. These reasons are quite common in other colleges thus the urge to transfer.

    Although these classmates of mine had long left USTe and that they pretty much embraced the ANIMOistic Benildean culture, the memories that they made while there are dearly treasured well into their hearts. That's why USTe will always have a special place to their hearts and minds. Paolo L. is more Thomasian of the abovementioned taht's why he talks nothing else but his beloved first school. Hehehe. Hmmm.....
