Idol gid ang dorm namon...Hale our dorm for its atmosphere, residents specifically ang mga first year, upperclass, kag ang mga staff. Hindi kayang pantayan at hindi kayang sirain ang bond ng mga tao dito... There is no other place like Hall 1 (Balay Lampirong) Certainly, Absolutely, definitely and truly a HOME.

Hello Jetson! I just posted another article - Lighting Ceremony. Be sure to check it out. Gawa ka rin ng sarili mong article kung may experience ka sa dorm that you want to write about.

It’s not over ‘til the fat lady sings…I guess that could more or less sum up the intense competition between the Odd and Even teams in Hall 1’s sports fest this year. Entitled Huego! 06, this year’s sports fest was packed with fun, flare, and…um…ferfection!

Preparations for the sports fest started days before, with both teams painting their banners and practicing their cheers. The atmosphere became tenser with each passing day.

The day of reckoning came on December 4, 2006…The dormers were roused from their beds by the House Council on the PA system at 4:30 in the morning. They immediately started dawning their colors – Red for the Odd team, White for the Even team – while other residents helped in dressing up their respective muses and escorts.

After suiting up, the dormers assembled in front of the Infirmary for the ceremonial fun run. The pack was led by the House Council with HC President Xerxes Seposo carrying the torch. Following behind, each team started cheering at the top of their lungs nearly waking the whole dorm area. The fun run ended at the Covered Court where a brief opening ceremony and oath taking took place.

After having their breakfast and a little more beauty sleep, the dormers started marching to the Tennis Court and Grandstand for the first games of the day, Tennis and Football! The Odd team dominated the first two events with Burn and IC winning it for tennis and the Odd girls outscoring the Even girls in the penalty shoot-out that followed the 2-2 draw for the Football match.

The Even team did not take this lightly and came back with louder cheers and yells during the Basketball game. The Odd boys gained the lead at the end of the first quarter but the Even girls played a solid game during the second, earning them the lead. The Even team maintained and stretched their advantage way into the dying seconds of the game until they emerged as this year’s Basketball champions!

After lunch, the Even team continued their winning streak by dominating both Volleyball games for men and women. The Table Tennis matches took place simultaneously with Bryan winning it for the Even team and Jolly winning it for the Odd team. The Badminton event was also won by the Odd team making it a really close fight for overall supremacy.

Late in the afternoon, the dormers went back to the grandstand for the Larong Pinoy. Again, the competition was pretty tight with the Odd team clinching the Chinese Garter and Tug of War events. The Even team came back by winning Sikyu. It was anyone’s game by the time all the Pinoy games ended and it was left to the Nature Trek event to decide who would emerge as this year’s champions.

This year’s Nature Trek was a grueling combination to test each team’s cohesiveness, stamina, and perseverance. The Trek was organized by the Hall 1 Upperclassmen and it consisted of 8 stations starting from the Covered Court and ending at the Ocean Weather Laboratory (OWL). Both teams were neck-in-neck up to the final station where the Odd team finished just a few minutes before the even team.

The sports fest ended with the Odd team being crowned as champions for the second year in a row. Although the competition was tough and tensions ran high, at the end of the day all the residents were back to their fun-loving selves, congratulating and comforting one another in a true show of sportsmanship that only Balay Lampirong can foster. Everyone enjoyed every minute of the day but exhaustion finally settled in. The dormers trooped back to their home away from home for much needed rest.

The next day, most of the residents were doing the Hall 1 walk…that was, limping up and down the AS stairs…scratches, bruises, aching muscles and all…at the end of everything no one cared…as cliché as it may sound, pain was temporary, glory is forever…BALAY LAMPIRONG ROCKS!!! 

Alaala sa Hall 1

Habang ako’y nakaupo sa kubeta,
naisipan kong sumulat ng tula.
Tulang tungkol sa pamamalagi ko,
ng 6 na buwan sa dorm ni madam Tronco.

Ako’y napaisip, ako ay nalito,
kung pano ko dudugtungan tula kong ito.
Hanggang umabot sa puntong.. “aha!”
Sisimulan ko ito sa dal’wang letra…

SA dormitoryong ito, ako’y nakatagpo,
ng samu’t samong klase ng tao.
Mabait, mabibig, matahimik, magulo,
kahit ano, kumpleto ang Hall 1 nito.

Nakilala ko rin ang mga upperclassmen,
na handang mag alay ng kamay sa freshmen.
Maliit, malaki kayang solusyunan
Pwera 'guro kung pera'y pag-uusapan.

Ang gustong magrosaryo, DASOC ang lapitan,
ang mahilig sa cards PUSOC ang kailangan.
Kung kumukulo ang tiyan si ate Fel ang puntahan,
Kung wala kang load, kay Kuya Rex ka umutang.

Sino ba ang makakalimot sa ube jammers,
O di kaya sa broderhud ng mga dormers.
Idagdag mo pa sina tiyay tuting,
at ang alagang aso kuno ng boys wing.

Pagkatapos ng nakakabinat na klase,
mga lalake’y raragasa sa room 23.
Dito naglalaro ng pokemon sina JC,
Rez, Jayson, kuya Mon at Anthony.

Salamat sa PC ni Kuya Rexy,
at ang mga Adan ay naging happy.
Sa digicam din n’yang walang kasawa-sawa,
magtake ng pictures sa gaya kong feeling artista.

Sari-saring pakulo hatid ng dormitoryo,
upang bigyang ngiti ang mga tulad ko.
Binugoy, high school day o kaya’y huego,
ito’y karanasang tatatak sa puso ko

At sa natitirang tatlong buwan,
na pamamalagi ko sa Hall 1.
Ako’y lugod na nagpapasalamat(sa Diyos)
Kayo'y natagpua't nakilala ko Lahat!

To all who complain of too little pics:

Budlay bala mangita pics sa pagkadamuuu. More than 3500 pics na for this batch. AND, more importantly, (hehe) we intend to sell the pics next year. So placing many, many pics here = bad business.:) Next year, you can order all pics on a CD or ask us to print them. Prices still to be decided but the 4R size won't be over P15 and the CD not over P300. So start saving up..:) (Fundraising by upperclassmen)
