The UST Biochemistry Society proudly congratulates the graduating seniors of 𝗕𝗮𝘁𝗰𝗵 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲! 🧪✨

Years of hard work, perseverance, and quiet sacrifices have led you to this moment. Behind every successful experiment was a failed one, behind every passing grade was a sleepless night, and behind every smile was a story of resilience. You carried on, even when things felt uncertain, overwhelming, or impossible, and that is what makes this achievement truly meaningful.

You have embodied the Thomasian core values of Competence, Commitment, and Compassion not only in your academics, but in the way you supported one another, uplifted your peers, and stayed dedicated to your purpose. This journey has shaped you into individuals who are ready to face challenges with courage, curiosity, and a deep sense of purpose.

As you move forward, may you continue to carry these values with you: the competence to excel, the commitment to persevere, and the compassion to serve others. The world beyond UST awaits your brilliance, and there is no doubt that you will make a difference wherever you go.

Thank you for inspiring us with your journey. Your legacy will remain in every lab, every shared laugh, and every aspiring biochemist who follows your path.

𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐮𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬, 𝐁𝐚𝐭𝐜𝐡 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟔! 🎓💛

Pag si doc gumagawa ng quiz, sunod sunod na letter B yung sagot diba?

Korik! Kasi B stands for ℬeautiful, ℬrilliant, ℬongga, and of course, the forever ℬida of the laboratory! 💁‍♂️✨️

Happy birthday 𝓐𝓼𝓼𝓸𝓬. 𝓟𝓻𝓸𝓯. 𝓞𝓵𝓲𝓿𝓮𝓻 𝓑. 𝓥𝓲𝓵𝓵𝓪𝓯𝓵𝓸𝓻𝓮𝓼 🎂! Your biochemistry family wishes you a life that is always exothermic, yung laging naglalabas ng pakak na aura.

And even though you get stressed with our messy lab data, kasi nga skill issue namin 💥, may your life be as perfect as your AI prompts. Hindi nasasayang ang tubig sayo kasi ikaw na ang 𝓭𝓲𝔀𝓪𝓽𝓪 ng biochem— na para bang umuulan ng blessings pag parating ka na 🧚‍♀️

We love you Doc Oli, promise hindi AI-generated to kaya wag mo kami sabunutan 🙅‍♀️🙅‍♂️

"The chains of habit are too weak to be felt until they are too strong to be broken." - Samuel Johnson 📜

​In a world where one easily gets overwhelmed by stress, a little bit of pleasure doesn't hurt, right? Something that often starts as a spark gradually burns everything down to ashes 🔥. To***co perfectly exemplifies this dangerous trap 🚬. By understanding the process behind its silent way of destroying the human body, you may get to realize how its mimetic nature masks the true effect 🎭.
​
Break the chain this World No To***co Day, as you stop the flame before it spreads uncontrollably 🚭.
