As dusk fell on 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝗰𝗵 𝟭𝟭, 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲, the 𝐌𝐫. & 𝐌𝐬. 𝐔𝐂𝐏 𝐓𝐚𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐍𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 officially commenced, bringing together the best skills and performances from every department. 👑✨

Our very own candidates, 𝗞𝘆𝗵𝗹𝗹 𝗗𝘂𝗿𝗮𝗻 and 𝗬𝗿𝘃𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗲 𝗭𝗼𝗿𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗮, took the stage and captivated the audience with a moving interpretative dance to Moira’s "Tagpuan." Their performance told the story of an artist struggling with the loss of his muse; as they danced, Kyhll showcased his artistry by revealing a painting he created, inspired by Yrvhine. It was a beautiful display of talent that left the crowd in awe.

To conclude the evening, all candidates walked the stage in their 𝗗𝗲𝗽𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗹 𝗪𝗲𝗮𝗿, proudly representing their respective colleges, which wraps the 𝗲𝗻𝗱 𝗼𝗳 𝗗𝗮𝘆 𝟮. We are incredibly proud of you, 𝗞𝘆𝗵𝗹𝗹 and 𝗬𝗿𝘃𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗲, for your hard work and the wonderful performance you brought on stage. 🌟🎨

On 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝗰𝗵 𝟭𝟭, 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲, marks the second day of 𝐔𝐂𝐏 𝟐𝟏𝐬𝐭 𝐅𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐖𝐞𝐞𝐤.

The day opened with a powerful performance in the 𝐒𝐩𝐨𝐤𝐞𝐧 𝐏𝐨𝐞𝐭𝐫𝐲 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐞𝐭𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧. Our 1st-year representative, 𝗝𝗮𝗻𝗲 𝗧𝗮𝗿𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗮𝘀, delivered a striking and soulful piece that deeply resonated with the audience. Her commanding stage presence and evocative storytelling earned her the 𝟭𝘀𝘁 𝗣𝗹𝗮𝗰𝗲 spot, securing another win for the department!

The creative energy was just as vibrant at our booths. Students from various departments continue to line up at 𝐏𝐮𝐭-𝐚-𝐇𝐞𝐧𝐧𝐚 𝐁𝐨𝐨𝐭𝐡 to get beautiful henna art done from our talented artists. The 𝐅𝐨𝐫𝐦 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐅𝐮𝐧𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐅𝐚𝐢𝐫 was thriving with students lining up to buy from our student-owned businesses.
And for those looking for a bit of friendly competition, the Tekken 6 station at our booth was a hit, where the loser paid 10 pesos! 🎮☕🎨

Behind the scenes, our pageant candidates stayed focused as they navigated their 𝐂𝐥𝐨𝐬𝐞𝐝-𝐃𝐨𝐨𝐫 𝐈𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐯𝐢𝐞𝐰𝐬. Following their interviews, they immediately shifted into final preparations for the upcoming 𝐓𝐚𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐍𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭.

On 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝗰𝗵 𝟭𝟬, 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲, the 𝐔𝐂𝐏 𝟐𝟏𝐬𝐭 𝐅𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐃𝐚𝐲 officially commenced, with the Architecture community participating wholeheartedly and giving their best in every event.

Simultaneously, 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝗻𝗲𝗹 𝗕𝗮𝗻𝘁𝗼𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗼 participated in the 𝐏𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐞𝐭𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧, showcasing stunning skills that highlighted our department’s dedication to visual artistry. 🎨💥

The excitement continued on stage at 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐕𝐨𝐢𝐜𝐞, where 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝘃𝗵𝗼𝗻 𝗥𝗶𝗰𝗼 represented the department with a soulful, emotional performance. The intellectual energy remained high during the 𝐔𝐂𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐁𝐞𝐞, as our representatives—𝗝𝗵𝗶𝗮𝗻𝗻𝗲 𝗣𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴𝗰𝗮, 𝗦𝗵𝗼𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗲𝗶𝗮 𝗠𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗱𝗲, 𝗝𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗲 𝗣𝗮𝗼𝗹𝗼 𝗖𝗮𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗼, and 𝗔𝘂𝗱𝗿𝗶𝗰𝗸 𝗡𝗲𝗮𝗹 𝗕𝘂𝗲𝗻𝗮𝗼𝗯𝗿𝗮 ,put up a brilliant fight. Ultimately, 𝗔𝘂𝗱𝗿𝗶𝗰𝗸 emerged as the last one standing, securing a hard-earned victory for the Architecture department! 🎤🐝🏆

Our creativity also shined at the booths, with the 𝐏𝐮𝐭 𝐚 𝐇𝐞𝐧𝐧𝐚 𝐁𝐨𝐨𝐭𝐡 drawing many visitors to see our talented artists in action. Meanwhile, the 𝐅𝐨𝐫𝐦 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐅𝐮𝐧𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐁𝐨𝐨𝐭𝐡, featuring 𝗔𝗿𝗸𝗮𝗳𝗲, 𝗗𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗹𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁𝗳𝘂𝗹 𝗖𝗼𝗼𝗸𝗶𝗲𝘀, and 𝗦𝗵𝗮𝗶𝗿𝗮'𝘀 𝗖𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻, was a favorite destination. Managed by our dedicated 𝟱𝘁𝗵-𝘆𝗲𝗮𝗿 𝘀𝘁𝘂𝗱𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀, these businesses provided high-quality, handcrafted products that were appreciated by all. 🎨🍪☕

A special shoutout goes to our 𝗳𝗶𝗿𝘀𝘁-𝘆𝗲𝗮𝗿 𝘀𝘁𝘂𝗱𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 for their efforts in designing the Foundation Day stage. Inspired by the 𝐖𝐢𝐬𝐡 𝟏𝟎𝟕.𝟓, they executed a professional and aesthetic setup that far surpassed expectations despite the limited time. We are so proud of the Archi spirit shown on 𝗗𝗮𝘆 𝟭!🏛️✨

A piece from COA - John Robert Mariñas

“When the World Became Quiet”

From where I sat,
the room was filled with voices of laughter, footsteps, and the sound of chairs scraping across the floor.
People stood, chatted about and drifted through the crowd,
while the moment unfolds somewhere ahead of us.

Yet before me, you sat quietly, and somehow the noise began to fade.
In the middle of a crowded room,
we share a silence belonging only to us.

Someday, this place will become a fraction of our memories, simply another day that has passed.
However, whenever I remember that memory, it will not be the crowd that I recall, but the quiet comfort of sitting beside you.
