Wazzup Pilipinas!

The second semester in UPLB has officially began, and with that, the Thursday night gimmicks are on air again. So to kick off the LB Nights festivities for the brand new sem, the UPLB Communication Arts Society brought to us Prewreck, the first club party at Java Avenue for the said time.

The doors of the said bar along Lopez Avenue in Los Baños opened by 9:00 PM, and in just an hour, the place was already packed with guests, mostly UPLB students who wanted to dance the night off.

The program began an hour later, and the hosts immediately called ten people to come up on stage for a game called "Acad Shots".

The ten were evenly grouped into three (one group had four members), and each member of a certain bracket battled against each other in a one question game with a catch. The contestants drank a shot of gin and turned around thrice before answering the question. The winners got prizes courtesy of Unilab and Nicdao's Barbecue.

In fact, Operation Blessing has already brought back the smiles on the faces of children seriously affected by the trauma brought by the super typhoon through songs, stories and games.
