UPS Christmas Party

Naging masaya ang pagdiriwang ng mga Sandiganista ng kanilang Annual Christmas Party na ginanap noong ika-14 ng Disyembre sa UPS tambayan. Present ang lahat ng mga members at may mga nakisaya ring alumni, tulad nina Kuya Aki, Ate Joy, Ate Riz at Kuya Wakutz. Nanduon din sina Kuya Dave at Kuya Karlo. Nagkaroon ng games at ginawa rin ang pagpapalitan ng mga regalo.

Maraming salamat sa mga nagsipagdalo at nakisaya sa ating party…

MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

Bahay Mapagmahal

Ito po ay ilan sa mga litratong kinunan nang bumisita ang UP Sandigan sa Bahay Mapagmahal para sa Batch Project ng mga aplikante last sem. Salamat po kay Ms. Vernie Tan para sa mga litratong ito.

UPS Welcomed New Applicants

UPS warmly welcomed new aspiring members through an Acquaintance Party held last Dec. 7, 2005 at the UPS Tambayan. Five dedicated students from different colleges, recruited by some of the members, attended the said event.

The party started with an opening prayer followed by a welcome message from the president of the organization, Ms. Arden Gonzales. A short orientation regarding the flow of the application process was given by the MemComm Head, Ms. Janeth Calantoc. Afterwards, a series of games were played for fun and entertainment but which also served as a bonding activity for the members and the applicants. Food was served after the games. The party ended with the applicants drawing lots to pick out their buddies who will help them during the application process for the whole semester. - JV

UPS Upcoming Activities

• An Acquaintance Party will be held at the UPS Tambayan Wednesday, Dec. 07, 2005 at 2:30 PM. All members and applicants are invited to join in an afternoon of fun and games with free food. It will also be a chance for the applicants to get to know more about the organization, its members, and their co-applicants.

• There will be a Rummage Sale on Saturday, Dec 10, 2005 9-12 AM. Everyone is encouraged to bring rummage stuff (clothes, books, accessories, etc.) until Friday to the UPS tambayan.

• After rounds of voting, it was decided that the UPS Annual Christmas Party will be held this year on Dec. 14, 2005, Wednesday 6PM at the UPS Tambayan.

Christmas Caroling

Namiss mo ba ang unang caroling? Sayang at namiss mo rin ang saya. Matapos ang ilang araw na pag-iensayo ng mga vocal chords ng mga members ay natuloy din ang caroling nitong Dec. 3, 2005. Salamat at nag-paunlak si Ms. Glen, ang butihing tita ni Maan Serias, na ang “UP Sandigan Carolers” ay mabisita at makantahan silang magkakaibigan. Ang caroling na ito ay naglalayong makapag-raise ng karagdagang halaga sa ating pondo at para na rin magkaroon ng bonding moments ang mga miyembro. Sa ganitong activity rin naipapamalas ng mga miyembro ang kanilang galing sa pagkanta at pag-lip synch.

Dito ay nais na ring magpasalamat ng UP Sandigan sa ating alumnong walang sawang sumusuporta sa organisasyon, si Mr. Achilles Dianopra o Kuya Aki (salamat na rin po sa libreng pakain).

Sa mga nagnanais ng second-time around, check na lang sa mga updates para sa info tungkol sa susunod na Christmas caroling. Kitakits! - JT
