𝑀𝑖𝑛𝑑𝑠 𝑎𝑏𝑙𝑎𝑧𝑒, 𝑠𝑝𝑖𝑟𝑖𝑡𝑠 ℎ𝑖𝑔ℎ. 𝐿𝑒𝑎𝑑𝑒𝑟𝑠 𝑟𝑖𝑠𝑒, 𝑑𝑟𝑒𝑎𝑚𝑠 𝑡𝑎𝑘𝑒 𝑓𝑙𝑖𝑔ℎ𝑡. 𝑃𝑢𝑟𝑝𝑜𝑠𝑒 𝑐𝑙𝑒𝑎𝑟, 𝑣𝑖𝑠𝑖𝑜𝑛 𝑏𝑟𝑖𝑔ℎ𝑡 — 𝑆𝐶𝐶'𝑠 𝑓𝑢𝑡𝑢𝑟𝑒 𝑠ℎ𝑖𝑛𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑙𝑖𝑔ℎ𝑡.

The morning sun cast golden rays across the scenic campus of Southern Christian College in Midsayap, North Cotabato, but it was the radiant energy of aspiring leaders that truly illuminated the grounds on this extraordinary day. What began as a simple registration quickly turned magical — a symphony of determined hearts beating in unison. They were ready to embark on a journey that would reshape their understanding of leadership.

The day commenced with reverent purposes as Mr. Kenji Keemuel Calungsud, the Junior High School Student Council (JHSSC) Religious Affairs Secretary, set a tone of divine guidance through the opening prayer, followed by the stirring melodies of L𝑢𝑝𝑎𝑛𝑔 𝐻𝑖𝑛𝑖𝑟𝑎𝑛𝑔 and the beloved Midsayap hymn through captivating audio-visual presentations. Mr. Geffriel Tipan, one of the JHSSC advisers, delivered opening remarks that painted a vivid tapestry of expectations, his words weaving dreams of empowered leadership into the eager minds of participants.

The atmosphere crackled with anticipation as the community dance broke down barriers, transforming strangers into allies through rhythmic movement and shared laughter. Team introductions followed, each group bringing their unique energy to the collective spirit, while carefully crafted icebreakers melted away hesitation and fostered instant connections.

The intellectual feast began with breakaway sessions that challenged conventional thinking, followed by the profound insights of Hon. Chrystophyr B. Trance, Sangguniang Kabataan Municipal Federation President of the Municipality of Aleosan and Vice President of the Sangguniang Kabataan Provincial Federation of Cotabato, whose words resonated like thunder across the assembly. Ms. Alexis Nicole Agarrado, a former Senior High School Student Council President, then took center stage — her passion igniting flames of inspiration in every listener’s heart. As minds absorbed these golden words of wisdom, lunch provided a perfect interlude for reflection and animated discussions.

The afternoon transformed the campus into a leadership laboratory with five dynamic stations that tested every facet of character:

𝙎𝙩𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣 1: Pen the Ball - challenged participants to think beyond boundaries, where strategy met creativity in an exhilarating way.

𝙎𝙩𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣 2: Eskenita - transported teams through narrow pathways of decision-making, teaching the delicate art of navigation under pressure.

𝙎𝙩𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣 3: Traffic Jam - created controlled chaos that demanded quick thinking and collaborative problem-solving, mimicking real-world leadership challenges.

𝙎𝙩𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣 4: Protect the Flame - became a metaphor for safeguarding vision and purpose amidst adversity, testing resilience and protective instincts.

𝙎𝙩𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣 5: Build the Giza - culminated the experience with architectural ambition, demanding teamwork, precision, and unwavering determination to construct something magnificent together.

Light snacks revived tired bodies, but the words of the Senior High School Student Council President, Yael Basti Ugalingan, truly uplifted the participants.

The 𝑭𝑰𝑵𝑨𝑳 𝑪𝑯𝑨𝑳𝑳𝑬𝑵𝑮𝑬 arrived like a crescendo in this symphony of growth, pushing every participant to their limits and beyond. Hearts pounded, minds raced, and spirits soared as teams faced their ultimate test of leadership prowess. The air itself seemed electric with possibility and determination.

Photo opportunities captured these moments of triumph in time, creating tangible memories of transformation that participants would carry long after the last echo of applause faded.

The JHSSC Senator for Religious Affairs, Ms. Jamila Matas delivered the closing prayer that wrapped the day in gratitude and divine blessing, while the SCC Song united voices in institutional pride. The restoration period allowed for quiet reflection on lessons learned and bonds forged.

Throughout this remarkable journey, the dynamic hosting duo of Ms. Riz Giana Laureta, the Executive Secretary and Ms. Jaymlyn Sasha Sinco, the Clubs and Organizations Senator served as masterful conductors of this leadership orchestra, their energy and enthusiasm keeping participants engaged from dawn to dusk.

As the sun set over Southern Christian College, it cast long shadows that seemed to stretch toward a brighter future—one shaped by the leaders who emerged from this transformative day. More than an event, this was a metamorphosis, a sacred alchemy that transformed ordinary students into extraordinary leaders ready to illuminate their world.

The Nutri-Quiz facilitated by the Senior High School Council, was held at the SHS Room 9 and started at 9:30 AM. The quiz had three level of difficulty: the easy, average, and difficult round. All competing teams fought using their minds, basic nutrition knowledge, and teamwork. The quiz ended at approximately 10:30 AM.

The Nutri-Reels competition, held at SHS Room 101, also started at 9:30 AM. The participants were oriented on the mechanics of the event. Then, they were given one hour for their script writing and team discussions, followed by four hours for filming and editing their video presentation.

Simultaneously, the Bento-Baon Box took place in the same room. Individual participants showcased their creativity and originality by designing their healthy baon boxes. After that, the participants explained the contents of their box and passed their outputs for evaluation.

The Nutrition Month successfully highlighted the importance of making informed food dietary choices for better health and well-being.

Through engaging presentations and interactive activities, participants gained valuable insights into balanced eating, the role of nutrients, and practical tips for maintaining a healthy lifestyle.

The event not only raised awareness but also encouraged participants to take meaningful steps toward improving their nutritional habits.

The activity aimed to equip students with the knowledge and skills to respond during school related emergencies and to promote safety and emergency readiness among SHS students.

The seminar was divided into three interactive sessions. In the first session, led by the Medic Club, students were taught how to perform first aid, demonstrating how to handle typical school-related injuries such as minor cuts and scrapes, nosebleeds, choking, hyperventilation, and dizziness. Additionally, the importance and purpose of immediate first response were shared.

In the second session, BPS demonstrated the basic bandaging techniques using cravats, educating the students about the parts of the cravat, how to fold them into various forms, and how to apply them in the different areas of the body. Moreover, participants were taught the importance of secure and appropriate bandaging for injury management.

The final session was a joint effort between the two clubs which focused on carrying methods for transporting patients. The Medic Club demonstrated the use of stretchers and chairs in transporting patients, while BPS showed the alternative hand-carry techniques where resources may not be available.

According to the Vice Chairman of Medic Club, Edrik Adrian Lee Baugbog, the goal of the activity was to provide the SHS students with practical knowledge to ensure they are prepared for any life-saving emergencies. “Our objective is to prepare the students to help when needed”, he emphasized.

This activity underscored the value of teamwork, composure and how to handle situations when students' safety may be at risk.

Moments later, a notification pings. Your rider is on the way, but there’s a slight delay. The message mentions the rain — a drizzle, or maybe something worse. You squint at the screen, mildly annoyed. The idea of waiting while you're comfortably dry seems unfair, somehow. Then, slowly, guilt creeps in — perhaps vaguely, perhaps suddenly.

A call comes. Your food arrives, wrapped in plastic with raindrops clinging to its sides. The warmth of it tempts you to rush back inside — but you pause. Standing in front of you is the reason your craving is about to be fulfilled: a delivery rider, drenched, shivering slightly, helmet dripping. They smile. Out of habit? Out of exhaustion? Or because they have to?

It's easy to forget that comfort is a privilege — and sometimes, that privilege comes at the cost of someone else's safety, warmth, and time. That meal you ordered — hot and timely — may have taken a rider through flooded roads, slippery paths, and biting cold. And still, we rate the service not by the effort, but by how fast the food reached our hands.

Delivery riders are often underappreciated in our rush for convenience. They maneuver through weather we hide from, pressured by bosses and customer expectations. Their income depends on volume — not on how soaked they get or how dangerous the ride becomes. We forget that behind the plastic bag is a human being, with soaked socks and a heavy jacket, rushing off to another door.

So the next time you feel a craving on a stormy day — whatever the hour — maybe pause a little longer. Ask yourself: Is it urgent? Can I cook instead? Can I tip more? These small considerations won’t stop the rain, but they can mean a lot to the one facing it head-on.

Comfort shouldn’t come at the cost of someone else’s discomfort. Let’s be more mindful — and more human — especially when the skies grow dark and we seek warmth in food brought by hands that weather the storm for us.

Today, we honor the unwavering spirit of student journalists and campus publications who in times where misinformation is rampant, and voices are silenced— continue to serve as vanguards of truth, and amplifiers of students' voices.

In every article, late-night layouts, and moments snapped, lies a quiet act of courage that only sheds light on the truth. The freedom to write, publish, and question is not a privilege– it is a responsibility we carry with utmost care.

We are truth-seekers. Entrusted to inform, to verify, to discern fact from fiction, and to illuminate even the darkest corners.

We are campus journalists. Steadfast. Alert. Unafraid.

Kahit puno ng mga “siguro”, alam kong kapag nariyan ang presensya mo, lahat ay nagiging sigurado. Tuwing masaya, nalulungkot, at pagod, ikaw ang hanap-hanap ko. Hindi ko alam kung bakit, pero alam kong hindi ito pilit. Kusa ko itong naramdaman, at kusa mo naman itong pinaramdam.

Iba pa rin pala kapag ikaw, iba pa rin kapag tayo. Hindi lang pag-ibig ang ibinigay mo, ginawa mong makulay at payapa ang mundo kong maputla at magulo.

Sana’y sa muli nating pagkikita, dama ko pa rin ang payapang dala-dala ng iyong mga mata. Hindi pa tuluyang nagsara ang pinto, patuloy pa rin akong naghihintay sa muli mong pagkatok dito.

Kahit gaano pa kalaki ang gulo, kahit gaano pa kadilim ang daan sa mundong ito, patuloy kitang hahanapin. Dahil alam ko, sa huli, ikaw at ikaw pa rin.

Despite the age gap of 16 years, Pac-Man showed no signs of slowing down after a 4-year hiatus from boxing. He delivered fast-paced footwork and punches in the early rounds, where he dictated the pace and kept Barrios on the defensive.

Defending champion El Azteca adjusted as the bout progressed. He used jabs effectively and rallied in the later rounds, landing clean-cut shots that helped him close the gap.

The relentless fight between boxing legend Manny and Mario concluded in a draw; 115–113, 114–114, 114–114 respectively. The score was in favor of Mario after clinching a 2-point gap against Manny, however, two of the three judges scored it even. Hence, the bout was ruled a majority draw.

After the match, Pacquiao expressed his belief that he had done his best to clinch the title, "𝙄 𝙩𝙝𝙤𝙪𝙜𝙝𝙩 𝙄 𝙬𝙤𝙣 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙛𝙞𝙜𝙝𝙩," "𝙄 𝙢𝙚𝙖𝙣, 𝙞𝙩 𝙬𝙖𝙨 𝙖 𝙘𝙡𝙤𝙨𝙚 𝙛𝙞𝙜𝙝𝙩. 𝙈𝙮 𝙤𝙥𝙥𝙤𝙣𝙚𝙣𝙩 𝙬𝙖𝙨 𝙫𝙚𝙧𝙮 𝙩𝙤𝙪𝙜𝙝. 𝙄𝙩 𝙬𝙖𝙨 𝙖 𝙬𝙤𝙣𝙙𝙚𝙧𝙛𝙪𝙡 𝙛𝙞𝙜𝙝𝙩. 𝙄𝙩 𝙬𝙖𝙨 𝙜𝙤𝙤𝙙." (Reuters, 2025)

Moreover, the defending champion stated, "𝙃𝙞𝙨 𝙨𝙩𝙖𝙢𝙞𝙣𝙖 𝙞𝙨 𝙘𝙧𝙖𝙯𝙮," "𝙃𝙚'𝙨 𝙨𝙩𝙞𝙡𝙡 𝙨𝙩𝙧𝙤𝙣𝙜 𝙖𝙨 𝙝𝙚𝙡𝙡 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙝𝙞𝙨 𝙩𝙞𝙢𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙞𝙨 𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙡. 𝙃𝙚'𝙨 𝙨𝙩𝙞𝙡𝙡 𝙖 𝙫𝙚𝙧𝙮 𝙖𝙬𝙠𝙬𝙖𝙧𝙙 𝙛𝙞𝙜𝙝𝙩𝙚𝙧 𝙩𝙤 𝙩𝙧𝙮 𝙩𝙤 𝙛𝙞𝙜𝙪𝙧𝙚 𝙤𝙪𝙩." (Reuters, 2025)
