Blog Giveaway #5 - BrandX TShirts

Campus culture items are a big hit nowadays, not only to the students, but also to the alumni, and even the faculty and staff, of a school. Case in point, enter University of the Philippines (UP), Ateneo (ADMU), La Salle (DLSU) and University of Sto. Tomas (UST). You would agree with me that students, alumni, faculty and staff of these schools really show their love and pride for their Alma Matter in various ways.

Enter BrandX. :) No it's not a unnamed brand juxtaposed to Tide or Safeguard, or some detergent. It is actually a collaboration between Xavier alumni, namely Nate Dy-Liacco (XS'01) and Migs Siojo (XS'00) who both work with Publicis Manila and Mark Gosingtian (XS'05), with Kirk Damasco and Ken Sy of Get Blued, Ateneo's biggest campus culture brand.

BrandX is the first Xaverian campus culture and lifestyle brand, that intends to unite Xaverians and celebrate the unique Luceat Lux spirit. Initially, they have launched shirts, but true to their vision of a campus culture and lifestyle brand, they will expand their offerings in the near future.

We can all expect quality, creativity and sophistication, combined with freshness of designs, to appeal to the sensibilities of the younger generation (and of course, to the young at heart).

They don't look like the typical Xavier Physical Ed shirts (which is good), but something that you would wear out to the mall, when you're with your friends, or in any relaxed and casual occasion.

As they are new to the scene and need to built presence and awareness, they've enlisted some of the biggest Xaverian names in media and sports, such as Christ Tiu, Drew Arellano, Charles Tiu, Jeron Teng. Leigh Wong, Lorenzo Sy and Enrico Sy completes the list of their initial brand models, who gladly agreed to endorse the brand.

BrandX. Wear the pride, wear the glory.

Fr. Robbie Sian, SJ

Just last month, one of my high school CLE teachers/ first high school Jesuit teacher, Bro Robbie Sian, SJ (back then) was ordained (so he's Fr. Robbie Sian, SJ now) to be a priest. He was one of the first few Jesuit scholars (if not the first) that I looked up to. After he taught in Xavier, he went to Cambodia. Funny, before he left for Cambodia, I met him the last time when he was with his sister in SM Megamall. Call it chance, or God's plan, I met him a couple of times after he returned back to the Philippines, and got back in touch with recently.



Xavier School Director Fr. Johnny Go wrote in his Facebook:

Newly ordained priest, Fr. Robbie Sian, SJ, taught religion for two
years to high school students in Xavier School. Here he talks about
how he feels about being a new priest.

Father Robbie will be presiding at the annual Missioning Mass this
June 5th at 2 pm at the Angelo King Multi-Purpose Center in Xavier
School for all our Faculty and Staff. His friends and former students
are all invited. After the Mass, he will give the traditional new
priest's blessing to the guests.

Congratulations on your ordination, Father Robbie! We are proud of you
and pray for you as you go to your new mission in Sta. Maria Parish,
Iloilo. Luceat Lux!


Back when Fr. Robbie was my CLE teacher, he touched our lives and taught us religion well. He was no boring teacher, but instead, he made the subject really interesting for his students with his stories and life experiences. He is a man of faith and someone who I think will do just great wherever he is sent. I'm praying for you Father! :)

Continuing the Legacy

I'm actually really happy right now to find out that Gian took the duty as head of the Appreciation Day Committee. The Appreciation Day Committee or the A-day Committee is responsible for the events for that single day in the last few weeks of September (September 26 for this year) wherein students recognize and feel proud of their teachers and other school staff and employees.

I was once the head of it when I was back in 4th year high school, and I am proud to say that since then, all the heads of the A-day Committee (Sherwin, Rod, and now Gian) was with my team back in 2006. Go Gian! Continue the Legacy! :)
