New Developments in XU-AAA

The new website of XU-AAA has been added to the roster of sites that form the Underdogs World of which the Blog Park is a permanent member. Closely related to the XU-AAA site is the XUHS 1966 site which belongs to the Xavier University Ateneo de Cagayan Alumni Association High School Chapter. XU-AAA which is also known as XU AAA will be holding itsAnnual Homecoming from August 18 until August 20, 2006.

The Annual Homecoming of XU-AAA used to be held during the celebration of the Feast of St. Francis Xavier which begins on the 4th of December and goes on for a week. While this was a good arrangement, there has been a bit of clamor for a change of schedule and the logical choice was to bring the Homecoming close to the celebration of the Feast of St. Augustine who is the Patron Saint of the Diocese of Cagayan de Oro. Arguably, more Cagayanos would be inclined to come home during the Fiesta and to hold the Homecoming around that time would be an extra inducement for out of towners to make the trip back home.

Something magical seems to happen whenever XU AAA holds its annual Homecoming. Nostalgia could be one contributing factor; the presence of old classmates seems to bring back old feelings and old thoughts which invariably transforms middle-aged men tnto rowdy teenagers. I have seen it happen and sometimes it is not a pretty sight as the old pecking order gets re-established. Mabuhay ang XU-AAA Silver Jubilarians 2006 which is the XUHS class of 1981.
