AguPips win in two campus contests

Intelligent and able members are two things that Aguman never seems to run out of. Such was proven by the Agupips by dominating two campus contests for students last week; a test of ability and a test of intellect.


On February 11, the UP Psychology Society held an eating contest entitled "Burp It Out: Aba! Busog sa Ababu!" in line with its 56th anniversary celebration. The shawarma food outlet Ababu sponsored the event which required the participating boy-girl pairs to eat 5 shawarmas each. Aguman sent three pairs, namely Jen-Lawi, Kevin-Julyn and Trish-Aries. Jen-Lawi eventually finished first among all the pairs and won the top prize of P1500. This is not the first time for Aguman to win such eating contests. Last semester, mighty AguPips also emerged as winners in another Psych-org-sponsored eating challenge, Chick-Nine-Y.


Merely six days later, on February 17, the AguPips once again joined a competition, this time a academic quiz show entitled "Tagisan ng Talino 2009" organized by Ilang-Ilang Residence Hall and held at the said dormitory’s lobby, in line with their dormitory week festivities. Three teams of three registered the competition which featured quick questions in mathematics, science, UP trivia and general knowledge. Team Sikrams was composed of Rex, Fergie & Acey, Team Bitrams of Kevin, Felipe and Carlo, and Team Buktu-Tan of Trish, Lawi and Bryan. After 25+ questions, Team Buktu-Tan garnered the highest number of points to emerge as first placers. The triumphant trio brought home P1500. Ilang-Ilang's "Tagisan ng Talino" was the same contest where the AguPips placed second last year and made Sarji Ruiz a popular name in the tambayan. The previous edition highlighted questions on local and foreign entertainment and media pop culture.
