To my Swag AF kpop dancers, "Now," let me begin by saying how "superfly" you all are. I may be "crazy" but my heart is a no "trespass" zone. You're not allowed to be this good at kpopping without me. Just kidding, keep up the good work everyone. This segment is gonna KILL it. With much love, Your choreographer Sammmyy

 

To my Bayanihan Family, Words can't describe how much you all have helped me. The start of this year was rough, but you guys have continuously given me support and love. You all have turned into a group of amazing people that I adore and turn to for random moments, or deep talks. I appreciate you all and you all make my heart hurt. I love you all and keep being you because you all are beautiful people inside and out. Thank you for being more than just my second family, but my actual family. - Peace, Love, and Blessings ️

It's been crazy to think it's been 1 year since I joined Bayanihan. I feel like the time I've spent with each and every single one of you has been a life time of joy, laughter, and food. Now certainly it has not been an easy year. We all struggle with our issues, insecurities, our baggage; but we're a family. We work together to achieve a common goal every single day, and we thrive the most when we foster the friendships that we hold true today. I've been so blessed to be a part of Bayanihan for this roller coaster of a year. This shout out is to all the members of Bayanihan that has helped me find the love in abnormality, the generosity in guest-swiping the elderly, the peace in family and friendship, and the hope that this year will be better than the last. Thank you Bayanihan, I love you all.

- Mustafa Anwar

 

This is to all my adings for making me feel young again. I remember 2 years ago being in your shoes and it just makes me look forward to the future of Bayanihan. Thanks yall!

AND TO ADD ONTO THAT, I hope i speak on behalf of us starving upperclassman, thank you for all your swipes last semester #blessed

To every single participant in fashion show, whether model, dancer, tech crew, or audience. Thank you for making Fashion Show what it was, nothing less than awesome. The models were flawless, the dancers were bomb, but the event as a whole: priceless. So proud to be part of Bayanihan!!
