ON THE BLUE CORNER



What can we say, being one of the Mythical 5 last UAAP Season70 & 71 and ranked third of the UAAP 71 finest top leading scorers, then won the title PS bank maasahan player of the year and the go-to-guy of the team. He has a deadly outside shot which he can drain down the basket at will. Calling him as the hard court heartthrob because girls and even the “girls-at-heart” can’t help but scream once this 5-feet-11-inch shooting guard-cum-team captain of the Ateneo de Manila University Blue Eagles steps into the hard court. Weighing 170 pounds, a pure-blooded Chinese, an endorser of Adidas Apparel, Clear shampoo, Handford, Nesvita, Glade Shirts and Sector watches, Insular life, Volvo and Milo's newest Ambassadorthe co-host of Manny “Pacman” Pacquiao on GMA’s Pinoy Records since December last year which is aired Saturday nights around 6pm after Wish ko lang and now has his 'own' new hosting show on his home network GMA 7 "Ripleys Believe it or not",catch it 11pm every monday and a budding entrepreneur. Playing right now at PBL for Hapee Protectors. Top pick for the national team and PBAfor drafting......Still snooping who he is?

Better finish reading my dissertation.

Everyone keeps an eye on this man wearing jersey no. 17 as he dribbles the orange ball and throws it through the basket. A pandemonium breaks loose every time he makes a field goal beyond the three-point line, most especially during crucial time. He was born July 15, 1985 with a “golden spoon” on his mouth. God gave him not only good-looks with an attitude but also a big humble heart that no one can break, that I myself could prove. His ability to focus on what he does and what he wants bear out how he manages to budget his time wisely, even with a hectic schedule he handle things smoothly by obviously prioritizing his studies before anything else. Players from the other member-schools of the UAAP perhaps envy the attention that this 23-year-old gets, on and off court.

Mr. Three Pointer already graduated last March2008 with a degree in Management Engineering. He’s now taking up his second course, Applied Mathematics major in Mathematical Finance.

Want to know more about his studies?Well, let me inform you that he is a consistent Dean’s lister in his College. He actually missed one UAAP season for the reason that he had an opportunity to left Philippines for France to be an exchange studentand represent his school. See, how he prioritize things up? Anyway, like most Chinese, he is business-minded too. When not on the hard court or in the classroom, he can be seen behind a food stall that he owns in the University, busy attending to customers and taking quick bites from (usually) a late lunch or mirienda.

Now, as he expands his territory in this field of industry. He is already managing running another branch of his food stall, to be precise, in Miriam College. By the way his food stall’s name is “Chinky Chickens”, you might see a branch in Trinoma since he considered putting up there.Talking about his social life, he was the former Sangguniang Kabataan Chairman in his Barangay. He’s actually living at Barangay Urdaneta, Makati. Last Barangay elections, he ran as a Barangay Councilor. Luckily, he won! Oops, his career does not only stop here! As he steps on the spotlight of show business, to be a television icon, commercial model and an endorser, in fact he has a charisma that could ignite a girl to crave for him. Above all hisprofessions and priorities in life, this blue-blooded guy never fails to thank God for all the blessings he received. They call him as the modern role model of the youth.

Still clueless about who is he? Allow me to introduce you the guy I’m talking about, who made me boosts off my energy when I see him in action. He’s not a bird—but he’s a soaring-high Blue Eagle—not a plane—but a dominating force who could sweep the fields away.

And his name is… Tiu-perman, err, Chris Tiu!
