10 Things I Like at BSU

“10 Things I Like at BSU”

1.         The Igorot inspired welcome facade – You can feel the warm welcome under cool weather with the Igorot inspired welcome facade located at the main gate of BSU. It is a great pride for me as an Igorot because I can see that BSU never forgets its grassroots. To everyone who has not been to BSU, for sure they will be inspired by the facade.

2.         The Athletic Oval - I love sports.  Every time I pass by the BSU athletic oval, it reminds me of my High School and College days. I have been an exceptional athlete of BSU during those days. Moreover, this old school oval is great for playing field event sports. Everyone is welcome to BSU athletic oval.

3.         The palm trees park - Most of the time you always expect pine trees in the Highlands. It is very unusual to see big palm trees in the land dominated by temperate growing trees. This is the reason why it always amazes me every time I pass by the Palm trees park situated in front of BSU administration building.

4.         BSU lover’s Park – By the name of the park alone it means love for everyone. This place in BSU is truly a consoling place for friends and lovers. For some who are young at heart, it is a good place to study love. For some who have their hearts tied to someone, it is a good place to renew their vow.

5.        Peaceful BSU road - With the chaos brought about by heavy traffic form Baguio City to La Trinidad, it is very rewarding to walk in the peaceful scenic access road inside BSU. It feels like you are in a different country because of the tall Agoho trees and the cool breeze it brings.

6.         The Library – I like the ambiance of BSU Library. I have been to some public libraries but BSU library is above those I’ve been. The weather adds up to the advantage of BSU library. It is cool in and out of the library. To me, this is the best environment and place to read and relax my mind.

7.         The closed gym – Not all schools offer good indoor facilities for Physical Fitness. BSU is one of the schools that have a good indoor fitness facility with their closed gym. Every student of BSU is free to use the gym. It is very spacious too. Take time to pass by BSU closed gym.

8.         The open gym – If you love basketball and volleyball, the place for you is BSU open gym. It is a haven for basketball and volleyball enthusiasts who don’t want to be exposed to the sun. The name “Open Gym” might be deceiving but mind you it’s covered and lighted. You can play all day but you have to request if you want to have it at night. It’s free of charge during day time but you have to pay if you need it at night.

9.         BSU food products – Strawberry products, ube jam, tarts, sweet tarts, cheese cakes and BSU breads, they are all exceptionally good. For those who haven’t been to BSU marketing center, you need to be there and taste those food products for yourself. You haven’t been to BSU if you have not tasted these products.

10.       Good acquaintances – BSU is home to everyone. This school existed since 1916 and it continues to flourish in order to educate all who wants to be with this school. This is the reason why everyone who goes to BSU gains more friends and acquaintances. BSU welcomes everyone and you are welcome too.
