Together is a Wonderful Place to Be!

The Beta Epsilon Sigma and Hiyas ng Silangan held numerous fellowships throughout the year to commemorate and preserve the very essence and legacy of the honors society – excellence and camaraderie. One of the most memorable fellowships was the birthday party for January, February, and March birthday celebrants held last March 2, 2019, at Makati Sports Club. The event was made possible through the initiative of Sis Lisa and Brod Primo Valerio, one of the birthday celebrants.

The event started with a little off-the-wall icebreaker – the well-known Rock-Paper-Scissors game, but with a twist. Everyone received a twenty-peso bill, they then partnered up to play Rock-Paper-Scissors. The victor takes the riches of every opponent he or she defeats. In the end, the final winners were able to go away with a substantial sum of money!

The celebrants were then acknowledged to blow their birthday candles while the rest of the audience sang them a happy birthday. Everyone’s stomachs were filled with wonderful food and their hearts were beaming with joy from all the jokes shared. To further hype up the energy of the party, some talented brods and sis graced everyone with song numbers. And just before we thought the party was over, the band gave off their groovy music, you just can’t help but dance.

That night, we ate, we joked, we sang, and we danced to our hearts’ content. It was a night where old souls met again, where most of the conversations started with “do you remember when…” It was a night to reminisce old memories and also a night to make new ones.
Indeed, together is a wonderful place to be!
