The Omen

Spent the other half of my morning at a printer courtesy of Mr. Sunico's class. Strangely enough, the only ink that was available for use was green. Mr. Sunico exclaimed "it's an omen!" in reference to the UAAP game that afternoon.

Ateneo vs DLSU basketball Games in Ateneo

It's usually a routine that during the finals, students would bring their TV sets on campus. However, since today is the last game Ateneo will be facing DLSU, students brought their TV sets.

Org rooms and key locations sported TV sets and benches where many Ateneans gathered around. Whenever the team would make a shot, they'd cheer. Whenever DLSU missed one, they'd cheer also.

Not that I actually witnessed this but was recounted by a classmate who skipped class just to watch the game.
