AdeMU will defend 3 championship titles at 76th UAAP

Manila PHL   |  June 30, 2013

I was watching ANC Sports Unlimited hosted by Dyan Castillejos (I was unable to bike because of the rain) She did a feature on Ateneo champion teams (of the 75th UAAP):   basketball, football, and swimming. The 76th UAAP will soon be underway

There is a greater on the Ateneo team to defend the titles:  the other teams are more competitive and they have strong recruitment efforts too.  AdeMU has recruited many Fil Ams and foreigners for its teams.  For the basketball, the topliners are gone.  Even in football, many mainstays are on sabbatical.

I had to do this post because one of the former students at Spentrep Ivan Brian Uy was an MVP of UAAP swimming.  They practice 6 hours a day and training is both physical and psychological.  I have maintained that training for business entreps and sports are the same.  There is a need for mastery of basics, of science in order to win.  To win both in business and in sports, you need discipline and hard work.

Subject: Thank you sir


Hi sir,


I didn't want to say this before you gave us our grades because it might send wrong signals. Anyway, I really just want to say thank you for the time and effort you made in teaching us.

There were a lot of moments where I think I had a paradigm change because of our discussions in class. Among one of them is actually "dreaming big" and being "walang hiya". 

Our discussions were very lively and actually provoking. Just the first session gave me the idea that our class was different (it was the first time I had to debate). Plus, this is the only class in AGSB that has a food trip as far as I know.

Up to now, when I dine in restaurants and fast food chains, I observe the people eating, the menu, the layout, the prices, how well trained are the staff, and the general ambiance of the establishment all because of our entrep class.

I hope sir that you find time to teach again because many students will need you to touch their lives as you have done so with us. A lot of my friends whom I share stories of how great our class is got disappointed when they found out you didn't teach this sem.

Anyway sir, I just wanted you to know how much I appreciated our time together as a class. I wish you all the best both in business and your passions. 

I cannot say that our class was easy but I would've preferred our class from other easier classes.

Thank you sir,


JP
