HOW TO LIVE A LIFE

It's been a busy week for us in Pisay. Student competitions, either physically or intellectually, were all around the campus. Now, I can proudly say that Pisay does not only comprise of geniuses and nerds but also students with different talent and skills.

Last wednesday, me and six students went to U.P. for a programming contest for high school students sponsored by the U.P CURSOR. As expected, (yabang!:-))..we got the 1st 2nd and 4th place while a team from Ateneo got the third place. While waiting for the contest to finish, another colleague and I went to the 3rd floor of Melchor hall for a Digital Art and Photography seminar by Daniel Cercado, a geologist and at the same time a professional photographer. As he shows some photos, some of the pics in his portfolios are familiar pictures and places to me since serendipitiously he was a former classmate of my kuya in UP-NIGS.

Yesterday, I was assigned as the teacher in charge for two consecutive seminars here in school as part of the Alternative Classroom Learning Experience program . The first seminar is about 'Blogging' by Clair Ching and J. Angelo Racoma, professional bloggers. Students are interested with the topic since some of them have their own blogs and they really want to improve them. I hope some of my students in the third year are among the participants but unfortunately they have their own scheduled seminar with entirely different topic.

Another seminar is all bout 'Volunteerism' and was sponsored by Rock ED Philippines, a volunteer organization. Volunteers, artist Kidlat Tahimik frm Baguio, and others are just few audiences that participated. Salingdiwa and Kala Bands have performed during the two hour seminar.
