Summing up 2012 in two events…

Dec 9, 2012

So, this is the end of the 2012 year! We made it to the finals, guys! Yey!

TISA would like to thank EACH one of YOU for being with us this awesome semester!
 
Two main events: TISA 30th ANNIVERSARY SCAVENGER HUNT and END OF YEAR PARTY - marked the end of this year. The four amazing teams participating in the Scavenger Hunt (from November 12 till November 30) did fantastic job and got astonishing prizes (credits to our amazing president Airin Aguilera). Here are the teams:
 
1st place: Almendra Piedra, Camila Lopez and Adriana Sierra
2nd place: Camila Martinez, Jose Argudo, Valeria Salluzo and Eugenia Ochoa
3rd place: Pedra Shanny Minnis, Kirsten Major, Saskia Griffith, Danielle Fields and Mbongeni Mtetwa
4th place: Yousra Nawara, Nadine Suliman , Momen Mahmoud and Virginia Chamunorwa.
 
Regardless of whether you participated in the Scavenger Hunt/ kept track of it/ wished to participate but was busy/ could not make it (which is very sad!), the best part of that busy week was the celebration that it was over. “Finally Saturday!” – we all thought. And there was a reason for it! December 1 was the TISA END OF YEAR PARTY at Club One7two (check out the photos of your pretty faces on TISA Facebook Page).
 
And this is it. Now we are left with finals and winter break! We are hoping you guys had fun. Cause we did :)
All the best for the exams and have an amazing break!
