Better than the best

Everyone is spic and span for one of the most significant events of Negros Oriental State University (NORSU)—the 83rd Founder’s Week Celebration with its theme, “Nurturing Desire for Harmony of Man and Nature.” The full-wit and grace ambiance is already lingering widespread the campus, and Norsunians are now making their shift in fulfilling a dedicative contribution for the most anticipated event.

With the ample time given, various colleges and satellite campuses are now giving a full-swing performance in every event that will surely leave the spectators a wow feeling. The different organizers are now in the thick of fulfilling their promise to make the best out of what they are doing to contribute to the success of the university celebration. Even the homecoming alumni have their part—sharing their gratefulness and the successes they have achieved to their alma mater.

However, while the rest of the NORSU family are gathered as one in this big celebration, there are still those who take advantage and decide to go home and have an early vacation. More often than not, students would just leisurely disregard the must-have-been bond between students and faculty members, which can be strengthened during the Founder’s Week Celebration.

This gleeful event is not a time for long sleeps and more siesta. This is a high time wherein we need to be happy and have fun. It is the moment to wash away all the stresses given by bulk of tasks in the university while unleashing our artistic and playful side. An undeniable fact that twinned with the participation in these events is, tiredness, but it should never be an excuse not to participate.

Each and every Norsunian and all the members of the faculty and staff should take part in this celebration because we all have roles to play making the best Founder’s Week ever.

To those who are not part any of the events, try helping through other little ways like volunteering on doing the props and costumes, distributing snacks for the participants, or helping in designing the canopies. These little things should not be overlooked, because these may turn to something significant in the end. Thus, it is your job to make sure that you have done your part in making things go smoothly.

We all have the intelligence, uniqueness, and talent to make it to the top, but only a true blue Norsunian has the character to appreciate and be thankful of each special moment along the way – and that character could never bear the idea of leaving his alma mater in times when his presence and participation is greatly needed. Happy Founders Week NORSU!
