Tacloban:Day 2

0 comments | Tuesday, January 30, 2007


The workshop started early today and all the invited administrators were present to attend the morning session. We've met Dr. de Dios, the campus director, in the seminar we find her very excited with the project and she is very willing to cooperate with the e-based project. After the session, we were treated in a 'baywalk style' dinner in Tacloban proper. After the dinner, we went to the Leyte Park Hotel to check the facilities of the hotel. It was a nice place. It is owned by the Romualdez family as our guide told us and you can still find the 'Imeldific' touch of the building.

Tacloban:Day1

0 comments | Sunday, January 28, 2007

Now in Tacloban..
Great place so far. The usual stuff. After our flight, we were fetched by the PSHS-EVC teachers in the airport and we proceeded to their newly constructed dormitory in Palo, Leyte. We were treated in a nearby foodstop and they toured us in some of the different landmarks and spots like the San Juanico bridge, Mc Arthur Landing Memorial, and in the downtown Tacloban. Pictures next time!...

Till We Meet Again

0 comments

I was saddened when I heard what happen to your mom last week. You know, it is the same month when my mom passed away last year. She died of heart attack during her dialysis session because of late stage renal failure. It is the day before I, supposedly, will start in Pisay. I know how it feels to lose a love one, especially loosing a mother. It is the hardest part in everyone’s life. Most of the time, moms are our best friend who understands us most; they act as our protector who will defend us in every quarrel; and our savior who will save us in any kind of danger that we faced in our lives.

I don’t know why I am writing this one since we are not even close with each other. We never had a chance to talk about our experiences that we encounter with our students. Or simply saying, I never had the opportunity to befriend you.

I was thwarted when I learned that you will not come back again in school this year, since you were accepted in a scholarship to study abroad. The feeling I felt can be matched up to my first heartbreak during my high school days. I know that I lost an immense opportunity to know a great person. If I just have the courage in knowing you better during the past months, I can say that it will be better for both of us. I am like an high school boy who is too torpe to his prospect prom date. A teenage boy who’s having butterflies in his stomach whenever he sees this young teenage girl in the cafeteria. I am too foolish to be frightened by my insecurities. I lost a battle where in fact I never tried to fight into. Were staying in the school’s dormitories but by no means, I never seek to catch you. We handle the same students who frequently tease us as a possible teacher-couple in school. I never learned my lessons.

For the past 23 years of my life, I never matured.

But for now, I am happy for your decision to continue further studies. I just want to say that you’re smart, beautiful and charming. Those are the qualities that every man is looking for.

I wish you luck. I hope that we’ll bump each other in the future...

Never thought that today will be the most stressing day so far in Pisay.
Can't think on what to do next...
I was observe surprisingly by my unit head and the head of the CISD office..
Thanks to my students who are so cooperative...
I finished the grades on time...
as in exactly on time..
But before that
I lost some of my files in the network..
Find students to confirm if they miss a quiz..
I even call them on their phone just to check it..
Sorry to my colleagues..
Lumalabas ang aking kasungitan minsan pag marami akong iniisip
or as Athena said(One of my student),
Sir, ang sungit nyo tuwing umaga pero pag hapon na eh ang friendly friendly nyo naman
Yup, I was born suplado
Even my friends in college is asking me how can i interact with my students
since I am the most impatient in our group...
Until now, i really dont know how or why.....
Need to end this..
I do have class this evening..
Hope to have a great discussuin with Prof Soria..
I love his stories..and the way he tell his stories..
Sometimes inspiring...entertaining ..etc...
Got to end this now..
now..
as in right now..
ok..


P.S. I know how it feels to lost a mom.Its been 11 months since my mom died of renal failure...
My condolences .....

Year of the Pig

1 comments | Tuesday, January 09, 2007

Its my year!....Year of the Pig
Contrary to its rather negative reputation in the West, the Pig of Chinese Astrology may be the most generous and honorable Sign of the Zodiac. Pigs are nice to a fault and possess impeccable manners and taste. They have so much of the perfectionist in them that others may be inclined to perceive them as snobs, but this is a misconception. Pigs are simply possessed of a truly luxurious nature, one that delights in finery and riches (in surroundings, food, lovemaking and otherwise). This Sign believes in the best qualities of mankind and certainly doesn't consider itself to be superior. Pigs also care a great deal about friends and family and work hard to keep everyone in their life happy. Helping others is a true pleasure for the Pig, who feels best when everyone else is smiling.
A Pig with no one around to appreciate its giving nature is a sad sight. Pigs are so magnanimous they can appear almost saintly; this can lead some less-than-well-intentioned souls to stomp all over this Sign, and the bad news is, the Pig will take the blows! Pigs make great companions in part because of their refusal to see the more negative or base qualities in a partner, but that rose-colored view can lead to this Sign's allowing itself to be taken advantage of. Contrary to their seemingly benign dispositions, however, Pigs can be quite venomous in response to being crossed by a lover, friend or business partner.
Pigs are highly intelligent creatures, forever studying, playing and probing in their quest for greater knowledge. They can be misinterpreted as being lazy, however, due to their love of reveling in the good stuff; this Sign could happily spend hours on end making love, napping, taking a long bubble bath or dallying over an incredible spread of rich foods. Pigs tend to make wonderful life partners due to their hearts of gold and their love of family. Even so, Pigs can be rather exclusive, choosing to spend time with those who will appreciate them most and ignore the rest of the populace. Pigs would do well to realize that there's more to life than being needed. When they open up their world to a diverse group of people, they will truly bloom.
The most compatible match for a Pig is the Rabbit or the Goat.(astrology.com)

New Year

0 comments


It’s been more than a month since I last posted an entry in my blog. I had a great vacation and been to different places for my almost a month break in school and work. Its been a great feeling when you’re not thinking about work and you sleep the whole day while you’re out with friends during the evening. But the real life will start again this new year. Requirements and deadlines are just few of the things I should face again these coming days since a busy month ahead is coming here in Pisay(Science Fair, deadline of grades, E-based projects.
