In an effort to revive the UP Baguio alumni community, here’s a round up of stories, photos and videos of the Grand Alumni Homecoming held at UP Baguio last December 5 and 6, 2008.

It’s time to give tribute to one of my favorite tourist destinations in Benguet – Asin Hot Springs, the haunt of numerous sem-enders and weekend picnics and the official basin for UP Baguio’s swimming classes and varsity.

People are normally quiet in the jeepney on the way to Asin Hot Springs. It must have been because a lot of us had to wake up at an ungodly hour in order to catch the jeepney to Tuba. Well, we UPians wake up soon enough and end up totally monopolizing conversation in the jeepney, with the locals simply smiling at us “tourists”.

IT was fun watching the young battle it out with the “oldies.” Still possessing that competitive spirit, the alumni pushed themselves as they competed with the younger varsity players in exciting and fun-filled matches in basketball and volleyball.

Siguro sa tinagal tagal ng panahon na di na tayo nagkikita, it is but natural na marami tayong pag-kwekwentuhan.

I had a strange dream last night. I dreamt that I was enlisting to study at UP Baguio once more. But as I woke up, I wondered how different things would be for me if I do go back to school now. What degree would I take? Would I join the same organisations? Would UP Baguio still be my choice?
