WELCOME TO BOSTON UNIVERSITY'S FILIPINO STUDENT ASSOCIATION =) HERE'S YOUR FIRST DOSE OF BOOFSA for the 2009-2010 school year! (Just in-case you didn't get the first email!)

HEY EVERYONE! Welcome to all the incoming freshmen and welcome back to
everyone coming back to BU =) Hope everyone had an awesome summer and
had a safe trip back to campus. We had a great time seeing yall at
SPLASH on Nickerson Field, Monday afternoon and we are really, REALLY
excited about the upcoming year. We had such an awesome time meeting
all the new freshmen and we can't wait for you all to become a part of
our club and learn more about this group of crazyyyyyy Filipino's (and
non-Filipino's bc you DON'T have to be Filipino to join FSA =] !) on
BU's campus. BUFSA has a bunch of fun, crazy, and new events lined up
for you all and we are sure it is going to be an unforgettable year!

This year BUFSA will be launching a very special YouTube channel called
boofTV. Where we will be taking you all behind the scenes for our
biggest events, posting random funny BUFSA shenanigans, and reaching
out to the wider Filipino community.

****We were so happy and excited to see you guys at Splash that we
created a special "WELCOME VIDEO" just for you guys! CHECK IT OUT HERE:

k let's get down to business =) Here's a list of our UPCOMING EVENTS:

*FIRST FAMILY DINNER- Wednesday, September 2 @ 6:30 PM in the GSU Backcourt*
Our first event of the year is FAMILY DINNER TODAY (Wednesday,
September 2nd)! We wanted to kickoff the year by having dinner with you
guys, our "FamilySA", @ 6:30 PM in the Backcourt of the GSU! Family
Dinner is an FSA tradition in which our club/family meets up once a
week usually in the dining hall or GSU to eat, socialize, meet the rest
of our club, chill, relax, and enjoy each other's company. If you are a
freshman, it is the perfect opportunity to meet other freshmen and
members of our club, and also to learn more about BUFSA. If you are a
returning member, it'll be a great opportunity to catch up with the
peeps you haven't seen all summer long =) But in anycase, come join us
for dinner! We can't wait to see yall!

*BUFSA GOES TO THE DRIVE-IN MOVIE!- Friday, September 4 /Dinner Meet-up
in Super88 @ 5:30 PM before!*
This Friday, BUFSA will be attending BU Programming Council's "movie
double-feature" of I Love You, Man and The Proposal on Nickerson Field!
Before we go to this event, we are all meeting up before hand for
dinner at Super88 which is on the Packard's Corner T-Stop at 5:30 PM!
Don't be late! :) We'll be reserving a bunch of tables for you guys so
just look for a group of Filipino's and long tables! After dinner we
will all be going straight to the double feature. So bring your
blankets, comfy hoodies or whatever you may want to bring to the movie
with you to Super88 =)

*BALIK PICNIC/"WELCOME BACK PICNIC". Sunday, September 13 from 12-3PM
in the Howard Thurman Center (basement of the GSU)* BUFSA will be
collaborating with the Chinese Students Association, Hong Kong Students
Association, Taiwanese-American Students Association, and the
Vietnamese Students Association in bringing cultural flavors to the
HTC. We will be serving FREE FOOD AND BEVERAGES! So if you are home
sick already and missing the taste of Filipino food in your mouth OR if
you want to try any of these asian flavors for the first time feel free
