I have been busy with Ching's World but I did place a link to a sketch of a potential XU-AAA website. As luck would have it, nobody seemed interested in it. The secretary of the Alumni Affairs office certainly could not be bothered to open it when it first came out. Too busy, she said. Father too, was busy she said. I was able to see Fr. B and asked if he had seen it. He said that the secretary printed it and showed it to him. Print a web page? That is a new one.

Come in and take a look at these sites: Bethel Guest House, The Blog Bum, XUHS, XU-AAA.

Ching's World will keep on hosting that sample page until I finish the Lotto Pool pages and replace the XU-AAA sample web page with them (lotto pool web pages).

This is Ching's World, Cagayan de Oro City, Cebu City, Dumaguete, Papoy, Moira Trinity. There is a lot to be found in these pages.

2007 Annual Homecoming

The XU-AAA Annual Homecoming held last August in Cagayan de Oro City was something of an eyeopener. I had the impression that moving the annual homecoming from December to August was good and appreciated by all if not most of the alumni. Notable on Saturday, August 18 dubbed "Barbecue Night" was the special appearance of the Cascades courtesy of Lito Cruz, XUHS 1967. Too bad very few alumni attended the final night of the homecoming.

Everyone remembers the famous Cascades who gave us the "bye-bye" tunes like Rhythm of the Rain to dance to. Unfortunately, no one seemed to know they were coming, at least that was the impression I got. Anyway, they gave a spirited performance, a prelude to their Limketkai concert the following night. They had just given a memorable performance the night before in Cebu City and it was Cagayan de Oro's turn on Sunday night.

A long line formed at the food table and I somehow got the feeling something was amiss with so many people lined up holding empty plates. Was the XU-AAA charging for the food? I know they were charging for the beer because our class, XUHS Class of 1966 paid for some beers.

There is a page on XU-AAA on Ching's World and if anybody saw it, they might have liked to keep it and probably make it grow. Ching's World will not be keeping that section for very long.
