PARTY POOPED

Music boomed, colors exploded, the crowds swayed their bodies and banged their heads to today’s latest hits. The Normlit was the perfect way to end this year’s Intramurals.

Everyone had the night of their lives as people. The stress, pressure and tension bought by the week-long competition drifted away as the music blasted from everywhere. What once were boos and cheers became screams of joy

.

The festivity however was short-lived when the event ended at 10 pm. Clamors of protests erupted, some shouted “Ka bitin!” as the music was turned off as the volunteers proceeded to clear the area.

The party might have ended too soon but it served its purpose well—it united the whole body once again. The students left with smiles plastered on their faces and laughter echoing on their way home.

AN INTERVIEW WITH MEDELLIN AND BALAMBAN

With the 4-day long Intramurals 2017, athletes, some teachers and staff from CNU Balamban and Medellin packed their bags and stayed under the roof of CNU Main campus. The university allotted to them the second and third floor of the ASAB Building as their sleeping quarters.

 

"Mas accommodating nasiyakay di parehas sauna namaglisud mi sa water," Medellin SSG President ZheilResuera answered when asked about their week-long stay. She said that the athletes had to wake up at 3a.m. just to take a bath or wait until noon just to shower before. She even narrated having to sleep on plywoods before and was grateful that sleeping mats are now provided. Apparently, things have changed for the better.

Aires Cabalida, SSG Secretary of CNU Balamban shares the same delight.

"Nice siya. Wala mi biyaesaamung dean ug coaches," she said.

She also commended the efforts of the canteen staff for serving the food on time. She had no qualms about the past. The Main campus has always treated them well.

Resuera, however, shares her sentiments on how the Main students used to receive them.

"Naka-trigger sa conflict between CNU Medellin and Main kayang word nga 'taga-bukid'." She admitted that they had grudges about that.

"I think saintramsjudnakaydidtora man nasa word na 'taga-bukid'. Mura ugnahugna 'Hala, naanasadangmgataga-bukid ay.'" She emphasized.

But everything is fine now according to her. "Okay najudsiyakarun, accommodating naangtanan," she added, smiling.

When asked whether they are satisfied with the performance shown by their athletes "Of course, yes they exerted their efforts jud to the max jud. As in.Angkutobsailangmakaya."Cabalida said.

Resuera, on the other hand said that this is their best Intramurals so far. The Medellin team already garnered gold, silver and bronze medals. "So far, samgaduwa okay rajudsiya at least ma third or ma second dilijudingonngawalajudka place ba. Mas sakitnganaakasika-fifth niyakungkibawkanadapat mas ni thrive pa ka."

Resuera also share to us thelack of their resources, hampering their team to strive for gold. The Medellin placed third last year. She expressed their team's desire to achieve for more but their financial insufficiency held them back.

"Amo athletes karonwana provide-an ugpagkaon. Sabot mi daanbakayamora gung payment 100 niyapilaragud mi. 500 rakapin, pinakataaskay 888 niya tag 100 langniyaigora man gudnasaamoangmga expenses kanangparasa uniform. Na-satisfy gyudkokaybisanpa'gwa mi ka-provide ug food, naninguhalanggihapon. Mao jud nay grabenga payback samga athletes saamoakaynaninguha man pud mi ngamaka-uniform sila."Resuera said, recalling their struggles before making it here.
