High School Day 2007

After an entire day of college students parading around campus with their high school uniforms, they gather at night for dinner, games, awarding ceremonies, and of course some picture taking.






It never fails to puzzle other diners in the Common Dining Hall of the presence of what seems like an array of high school students who come to eat dinner late at night. Of course, our disciplined "high school students" fall into neat queues while waiting for their turn at the counter.



That is except if there is a camera nearby...

There you go. Representatives from different high schools across the country have fellowship dinner right there at the Common Dining Hall of UPV Miagao.


And the first honors for this year is... Piologo Tabernilla II! He is highlighted in the photo below just in case you're confused with all the people in the picture.

An urgent invitation

Once again, hall1.blogspot.com publicly invites all past and present dormers to contribute to this blog. It's been a while since the last update and I believe more contributors will ensure that we don't miss out on any events anymore.

7 simple steps to posting

  1. Leave your email in the chat box/cbox
  2. Wait for an invitation in your email
  3. Accept the invite by following the link
  4. Create a Google account (if you don't already have one)
  5. Visit hall1.blogspot.com and click "New Post" or "Sign-in" at the top-right of the page
  6. Type something and/or insert a photo/s
  7. Publish!
Why bother?

It makes sense that a blog about a huge family of Hall 1 dormers be a group effort. It is a great way for us to keep a group diary of our experiences so we can reminisce the Hall 1 experience anytime, and anywhere in the world. Wouldn't you want your memories to be 'immortalized'? What's more, you and your friends can still keep in touch and share stories long after you have graduated from the dorm. The comments on the articles and the chat box further extends this experience.

So what are you waiting for? There's no need for writing skills. Just post a photo and place a caption if you're too busy. You can always delete them in the future just in case. Share the Hall 1 experience with your friends! Go, go, go!

Bangaanay 2007

We landed in fourth place again after Upper Valley very narrowly won last Thursday. Fourth - that's quite commendable for a freshman dorm.

The most important thing is that we all had fun...

Got some good physical exercise...

Learned to support each other...

And most importantly...

Teamwork and friendship was strengthened.

Congratulations Balay Lampirong for making it that far!

Upperclass Bonding at Robinsons Place Iloilo

Every semester, the upperclassmen conduct a bonding activity. It used to be at the OWL or Hilltop, but this time, it's at Robinson's Place Iloilo! Ayan, nahihiya daw magpapicture sa fountain :P

The festivities began with a hearty meal at Mang Inasal. When we say hearty, we mean lots and lots of rice. Unlimited rice kasi. Paolo topped everyone with 4 and a half servings. Thank you JC for the two boxes of Choco Mucho dessert. Hanggang Mang Inasal, Choco Mucho pa rin!


After devouring a lot of carbohydrates, it is just right to spend them somewhere. G-Box Arcade was the solution. We were again lucky to have JC around. He helped us win the jackpot several times.

Todo pasikat ang mga upperclassmen with their more than a thousand tickets.

Pero sabi ni Manong Guard "Bleh! mas marami pa rin ang ticket ko. Itatapon ko na nga lang."

The hard-earned tickets were used to acquire three chickens named Chicky, Chaka, and Chikitita. Here's the two of them. The third one, I assure you, looks very similar to both. They are however, quite unresponsive to stimuli.

The highlight of the bonding activity was in the cinema. Everyone watched "A Love Story" starring Aga Mulach, Maricel Soriano, and Angelica _?_. What do you say about the movie? Everybody seemed to have enjoyed it.

We look forward to the next bonding activity next semester!

Street Painting

Here are two photos of Balay Lampirong's street painting. This is the product of the residents' teamwork and, as the painting says, their love for Hall1. Photos are courtesy of Azin John Libanan.
