At 75 - Xavier Days Are Here Again

Xavier University @ 75

Xavier Days is here again, and I have to say they made a point in saying that it's going Brighter, Stronger, And farther at 75.

Well, the heavy rain "almost" spoiled the special day, and I said "almost" because I really thought it was gonna rain the whole night, but I guess almost seems nothing when you're beginning to have fun. And that's exactly what happened

A view of the campus while it was still raining...

singing Christmas carols

St. Francis Xavier surrounded with flowers.. lots of flowers.

And here's what everyone is waiting for.... the light a tree contest. (but some said there were no countdowns, and they weren't able to get ready)

I wasn't able to take a picture of all departments though coz I was a bit busy having fun, and I can't find my beloved SBM tree anywhere. (Where is it?)

But here are some of he best looking trees in the campus.

The Aggies "water" Tree.

The big Diamond (I kinda thought M. Lhullier joined the celebration)

The BSN Boat

The CD Tree

The Angel Tree

And here are some props (part of the decorations) I thought were worth seeing.

the Golden girl...

where did your snowman go? ... He's at XU.

Water and lights interpretation of XU @ 75

And yes of course, the fun after seeing all the lights will always be happening in the soccer field where different gimmiks, stores, stalls, and just about anything that the students want to show are in their.

Night Market Inspired

Well this year, aside from just having the usual Big Screen movie in the field, there was also this big screen intended for video gaming. (Tekken was played while I was there). Unfortunately I wasn't able to take a photo of it.

And yes, if you happen to notice the very long line in the Engg. building (it's not enrolment, trust me), then I guess you've seen that people still love to go to horror houses, cause that's what's in there.

And of course, if bloggers (like me?) love to feature such events, then so does the hosts of ABS CBN's Mag Tv. Here they are:

Talking about the event

Wrapping up...

"Horseback Riding" is also one of the activities inside you can see inside the campus, and this.... this is Janno (the very small horse).



If you've been in Xavier these past few days, I really hope you didn't miss seeing this guy dancing with flames. But don't worry, I caught him on video.


Well that's it for now. I hope yo enjoyed my shaky, yet fun coverage of the XU at 75. And sorry girls, I haven't seen Chris Tiu around, so no photos for you today.
