XU-AAA 2005 Homecoming

Party Time

Great music and dancing is always a welcome treat to nimble feet. XU-AAA 2005 Homecoming brings old friends and lovers together for a night of partying.

Cagayan de Oro City is the best place to be when it is August. Not only is the feast of St. Augustine celebrated on this month but Xavier University - Ateneo de Cagayan Alumni Association (XU AAA) also holds its Annual Homecoming in this month adding to the festive flavor of this wonderful month.

Cagayan de Oro City is one of the premier cities of the Philippines combining modern luxuries and facilities and a small-town feel which has not been lost with the advent of commercial malls and industrial plants.

A precursor

This is a precursor to the XU_AAA website which is coming soon. I had wanted to make one that was simple to make and simple to maintain. When XU AAA President Bebot Noble told me he wanted a website that could hold the directory of all members I was instantly intrigued and wanted to get on the job right away. As luck would have it, I had several mishaps not the least of which is my computer's hard disk giving up on me and rendering months of work unretrievable. Be that as it may, I am open to criticism and vilification.

In the meantime, let me regale you with some of the highlights of last year's XU-AAA Homecoming. Enjoy!
