𝐓𝐡𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡 𝐇𝐚𝐫𝐝𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐩𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐬-- 𝐭𝐨 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟓! | 𝐌𝐒𝐔-𝐈𝐈𝐓 𝐎𝐑𝐈𝐎𝐍𝐒 𝐚𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐌𝐒𝐔-𝐈𝐈𝐓 𝐘𝐞𝐚𝐫-𝐄𝐧𝐝 𝐂𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐛𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟓

With the theme "𝑳𝒊𝒈𝒉𝒕 𝒐𝒇 𝑯𝒐𝒎𝒆: 𝑪𝒆𝒍𝒆𝒃𝒓𝒂𝒕𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝑰𝑰𝑻 𝑭𝒂𝒎𝒊𝒍𝒚 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝑪𝒐𝒎𝒎𝒖𝒏𝒊𝒕𝒚," MSU-IIT celebrated its 𝐘𝐞𝐚𝐫-𝐄𝐧𝐝 𝐂𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐛𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟓 on the afternoon of December 18, 2025, at the MSU-IIT Gymnasium. With the venue echoing with laughter and filled with colors of happiness, the event not only celebrated the endurance in this year but also reflected the community’s resilience and strength in breathing in triumphs and reaching milestones, reminding us once again of the well-tight link that connects us.

To share the spirit of warmth and joy, the MSU-IIT ORIONS, along with the Echoes and MSU-IIT WILDCATS, brought a bounty of energy to supplement the already-vibrant presence of the celebration. In every beat and step the performers made that ripple through everyone, it was accompanied and resulted in smiles and laughter.

The group expresses their gratitude for the chance to be a part of a festive and wholesome celebration. While this year gave us plenty of opportunities and occasions for reflection, seeing the community that helped and allowed us to grow made it all worthwhile and encouraging. The year 2025 might be ending, but the connection we made is still growing stronger and trespassing achievements further than what is envisioned–through hardships to the stars.

After the intense journey and unforgettable experience of Chosen Ground 19, the MSU-IIT ORIONS gathered once again for their official Meeting and Assembly: CG Evaluation last December 08, 2025. This session served as a space for reflection, grounding, honest conversation, and an opportunity to understand what the team gained from the competition, what challenges they overcame, and how the experience can strengthen their growth moving forward. The assembly emphasized not just performance, but resilience, unity, and the continuous pursuit of excellence.

On the same day, the whole team also took the opportunity to conduct an evaluation meeting for the recent successful event, in which the group participated, held on December 5, 2025 –-𝐏𝐈𝐍𝐓𝐈𝐆: 𝐇𝐮𝐧𝐢𝐍𝐚𝐲 𝐅𝐨𝐫 𝐀 𝐂𝐚𝐮𝐬𝐞 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟓. The event blended the passion for art with an advocacy for community building through contributing to disaster relief efforts.

The MSU-IIT ORIONS used this time to look back on their growth both as individuals and as a group. Through honest conversations and shared reflections, the team recognized what they do well, noted what they can still improve, and appreciated the unity that supported them on and off the stage. Beyond reviewing movements and performance details, the session highlighted what truly keeps ORIONS strong with the trust they have in one another, their passion for the craft, and their openness to learn from every experience, whether it brings success or challenges.

The MSU-IIT ORIONS express their heartfelt gratitude to everyone who supported their CG19 journey, and to the team members who showed up not only as performers but as individuals committed to growing together. Guided by the words of Emma Tiglao, “To live with kindness and empathy,” the ORIONS continue to move forward with purpose, humility, and heart.
