'tis the season of mugarfest

YO FSA how you doin!

We'd just like to wish everyone the best of luck on Finals and thank you for a wonderful semester. We hope you had fun!

We rocked the boat AND the stage together, cooked and ate together, did good work for GK together, became first time, but not last time intramural co-rec volleyball champs together, danced and laughed together...

And now it's time to study together! Womp, womp.

MUGARFEST has begun and I think we're on day 3? Go find your fellow FSA'ers on the 2nd floor of Mugar. Studying isn't as painful when you have friends to do it with or people to distract you from what you were actually supposed to be doing in the first place. Joke lang! We get our work done on the realz. It's a good time, so check it out if anything! 2nd floor of Mugar. Do it. K go.

WINNERS WANT THE BALL interested in playing for the best team, the only team: The Little Brown Filipino Warriors? We'll be dominating the basketball courts, the soccer AND softball fields next semester SO if you're interested in playing any or all three of these, hit up Juan "In My Mouth" Castro at jucastro@bu.edu

CHOREO or BOREO? I don't know what boreo means or why I said it but ISA: The World Is One is coming up and fast! It'll be here before you know it so make sure to save the date: April 18, 2009, 7pm at the Tsai Performance Center. Get at Auburn "Zurn" Santo at ausanto@bu.edu and/or Christian "Rivs" Rivera at r1vera26@bu.edu with your choice of song and dance if you're interested in choreographing. We'll be having sign ups for both modern and traditional dances at our first meeting back from break so get pumped! Awww yeeee.

BUFSA MODERN! an idea that is slowly but surely in the making.. BUFSA Modern will be another means of expression for FSA. As you know, FSA is so much more than a cultural group on campus. We dance, we sing, we cook, we eat, we play sports: We are a Family and one with many passions. So if you're looking for a creative outlet between now and ISA,  wanting to hone your dance skills and make them better or just plain excited to dance and do nothing else then contact Michelle "MO" Ortega at mortega@bu.edu. We'll be having our first workshop/meeting at the beginning of next semester so be sure to keep a look out for that! Chyeah boy. Chyeah! Chyeah!

NEW MEMBERS? FSA is always looking for them and always interested in having people join the family. If you know someone who is interested please have them contact Eboard at bufsa@bu.edu so we can add them to the mailing list and get them the information they need. Also, if you know someone who is NOT currently receiving the emails, let us know so we can fix that por favor. Thanks friends!

JENNY ROCHE WANTS MAGIC MIC NIGHT but what do you want??? Whether you've got a talent and want to share it, interested in taking a trip to Cambridge to get some good Filipino eats, yearning to hear a guest speaker come in and talk about Filipino Politics or willing to watch The Debut (not Krystal's, but the actual movie) in the Howard Thurman Center - let us know so we can plan accordingly and make this Spring Semester one to remember. We've got a lot in store for you already, so we hope you're ready! We're going to be living in the year of '09 people.. So it's got to be good. OH NINEEEE

BUFSA BLOGSPOT we've created a blogspot for the time being so be sure to check it out. Polls, importante announcements, the count down to ISA:The World Is One and other goodies are what you'll be able to find here. So do it to it, check it out and check it often: http://bufsanews.blogspot.com. Props to Carlo "Themandan" Dumandan.

And last but most certainly not least...
CONGRATULATIONS to BUFSA's Freshman Representative for 2008-2009... Tim "TIMMMAY" Ramos!!!! woOoO a very warm welcome to you Tim! Eboard is more than happy to have you on the team. JAMBO

Now back to life... back to reality. But it's gonna be OK!!!! Cause FSA is here to lift you up and get you into the Holiday/Study spirit. Good luck on Finals and see you at Mugarfest... If not, have a safe break and the happiest of holidays everyone!


PEACE & LOVE,
