WELCOME BACK to PASSIG ISLET!!

bernzhere sets foot again on Davao del Sur's very own version of White sand BORACAY Resort. To my good friend Novie, thank you for the treat. Congratulations on your Regular appointment. I'm sure your dad would be more proud of you. Keep up the good work and stay humble, as always.

On our way, we passed this stall along the Highway that adorns clumping Mangosteens! 

Picnic white umbrellas gives an ample shade to bakasyonistas!! 

Was amaze when I saw the improvements of the ISLET. After logging in our names [for security purposes, I guess], I ask the attendant what's that on-going construction. She responded, it's a Cconference Hall. Wow, a conference hall in the middle of an ocean. 

These are some of the Islets huts

Looks like a backdraft but a picturesque of Mt. Apo



We were informed there would be a slight delay on the arrival of the sailboat man. He ran some errand pa daw kasi.  Dusk enveloped the whole place.  So dark. Could barely see your folks, not unless your friend smiles, hehehe. While waiting, I opened my Digi and viewed our pictures. Wow, another batch to add in my gazillion photographs. I'm running out of photo albums. Donations, anyone? [chuckles]

6:13pm Finally, the sailboat man has come. We were assisted one by one and when settled, he switch on its engine. Was pretty amaze of the flying fishes. The locals call it "isaw".

I had a good time with my friends and to our new acquaintances Elyn and Doris although Sheila wasn't there. Wish you were with us but I hope your S.O. gets well soon. We understand. Miss you, she.

Asked if I got any remembrance. I do, my arms had sunburns. The lotion I brought with SPF 15 did not beat the UV rays. [rolls eyes].

FOOD FOR THOUGHT

   Just wanna share everyone this...got this text message from my good friend Van..

worthy of reading.
  • A long life may not be good enough but a good life is long enough.
  • All truth is good but not all truth is good to say
  • Anger is just 1 letter short of dANGER
  • Although 10 is an even number and we have 10 fingers, notice they are unequal
  • To handle yourself, use your head. To handle others, use your heart
  • Revenge gets you even with your enemy. Forgiving him puts you above him.
  • It's better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to open your mouth and prove it.

skirting day

My HCS 1-AM students continued with their skills demonstration exam  this morning. Also, we welcomed back some of my students who just had their OJT [On-the Job-Training] at the Temporary Shelter for Sick and Elderly Women. 

After lunch, I was a bit worried I had nobody to split fare going to Annex. Thank God, my classmates went to Main. Our allowance kasi hasn't been released yet. Ahmmm...hello?

Afternoon..
We were taught how to do SKIRTING. I've always been fascinated with the art of table setting. Ma'am Jo demonstrated the basics: Single and Double pleat. She showed us how to fold, measure and pin properly each side of the cloth and make sure it evens out on the side. She made us all try. 

It looks easy but difficult to execute. Be keen in measuring each pleat or else, your work would end up wearisome. But, fullfilling naman when you done few single pleats. I have tried doing the single pleat. Not that easy. It should be contoured. 

The double pleat was interesting, too. Patience is needed. Expect some accidental prickings to happen. Beware of Clostridium tetani [causative agent of Tetanus]. Careful with rusty pins. Might as well use a fingertip protector to prevent it from happening then.

In the midst of folding, concentrating and pinning, one HRM student came inside the classroom looking for his Instructor. At first, he was simply ignored. He looked serious kasi. Wala lang. Unknowingly, he was the Class Clown pala. He stayed for awhile making fun to some of our classmates. He's really funny. He does have a gift. A gift of comedic acts for which he makes everybody laughs, even his Instructors. He never runs out of jokes to crack. He even shared his funny experiences during his OJT at Hotels in Davao and a lot more.

We learned later on he performs every mid and weekends at KOB, Digos City. Don't look for him daw. Kasi he's at the kitchen washing dishes. We all laughed again. 

I've been to comedy bars when I was in Manila. It was fun and a stress-reliever. Matatawa ka talaga sa mga acts nila. I guess it's funnier when it is delivered in Cebuano or Bisaya.

The rest of the time, we were laughing. He's just as spontaneous as those on TV. We'll visit the place to watch him perform one of these days.

long day and creepy night

It was oral recitation day. Some of the possible questions for their NC 2 exam were being thrown at them and yours truly evaluated how they answer.

After lunch, we were able to hop-in to school's transpo going to Annex. That's a fare-saving treat. Thanks, Ma'am Tisay!! 

Inside the classroom, we were taught of the additional table napkin foldings. Last time was 10 and yesterday, 13 were added to the list. We caught up naman but kinda mahirap ang ibang methods. Ma'am Jona came up with 6 more ways of table napkin foldings. 

Kudos to its creativity! It beautifies the table settings. I love this course na talaga. hehehe.. Afterwards, Ma'am Jo called each student to RD (return demonstration) 20 ways of folding table napkins in 8 minutes and name each one. I thought of demonstrating only those easy and not those complicated ones. Stiill need to learn its step by step procedure. 

When it was my turn, I had a good start and funny middle part. I was nervous by the fact that we were given only 8mins to perform. I did the easy ones first. When I get to the 3rd one, I coudn't execute the BUTTERFLY way so I switch to other method. It ate much of my time trying to figure out my mistake in making the BUTTERFLY. Times rans fast, I had finished 16 ways out of 20 in 8minutes. I know, that's too long for people who were used to do this kind of job. It never occurred to me the PRESIDENTIAL and WAVE method, which were easy-peasy in the last few seconds of my time. We were just starting and learning, that was spontaneous. Taught and should be demonstrated on the same day. 

Ms. Chem was next. She had a smooth demonstration. She finished folding between 6-7mins. Yes, my good friend got it perfectly!! 

After our class, we headed back to school to continue the Skills Demonstration of our students. 

Pass 8pm, Apple and Genalyn were performing the Mobility and Occupied Bedmaking when the former and her patient Ice, heard a girl crying. It scared the heck out of us we all rushed to the door screaming. Imagine the goosebumps, slightly dilated pupils, increased heart rate and blood pressure...nyayy!! Did she really hear someone crying or her imagination was high due to the exhausting RD? We heard some creepy stories then but that was I guess the latest. I don't want to experience one either. We told them to make their work faster so we can all go home. 

We left school around 9pm then headed to Jollibee. Thanks Chem for the treat! Sana laging perfect! hehehe..I now own the 2nd Pucca Perky Collection from Jollibee, courtesy of my good friend Chem. Yehey! 

I'm tired and weary but I'd have to stay alert. Have to take a dose of caffeine. Coffee, anyone? Still have lots of stuffs to do. You know, when school year is about to close, teachers have to face calculators to compute grades.

judge for a day

A week ago, i received an invitation to be a judge of the forthcoming School's P.E. Day.  Having no experience on judging, I was hesitant to accept but since I was encouraged and convinced by my amega [termed to "a friend"], i gladly accepted the offer [chuckles]. 

9am - I arrived at the venue. I was informed kasi the event will start at this time. I was able to meet Kag. Jojo, who happens to be the other jury.  We had a short chikka

Pass 10 na nag start ang program. Mr. Jopet  introduced the panel of judges starting off with me. Char, "This is the feeling pala", i uttered to myself. 

Thank you amega for the experience!! I have gained new acquiantance..Sir Don, Sir Jojo and Sir Bandy.  

Bought the first of the 3 PUCCA collectibles at Jollibee. I love it!! Thank you, Ate Gracey for informing me. Love you!!! Kisses to shane. 

I went home, kinda late. Went back kasi to HH to meet up with the students whom are going to have their Hospital Exposure at DDH starting this Monday for 2weeks. I brought Ma'am Lyn, her son Mikey and Patzs to OC for a merienda treat.

on thoughtfulness

This morning, after evaluating each performance of my students in their return demonstration, I asked those who were outside to come in for some announcements.   I was kinda annoyed they won't come in as called, which made my voice raised.  They all came inside and was surprised to hear  a chorus "Belated Happy Birthday Miss!!". And again surprised with the gift bag on top of my table. They all stared at me, I guess waiting for any violent reaction [hehehe]. uhhhh...how sweet, how thoughtful. They all requested to open the gift [was excited also of the content..hekhek]. They gave me this long or hotdog pillow with cartoon prints from the movie 101 Dalmatians. They knew kasi I'm a pet lover. Aside from  that, they gave me a photo album [part of my wish is granted]. My gazillion photographs is yet to be arranged. I thank them all for the gift. I appreciate the effort. As a funny gesture, I gave them all a flying kiss. We all laughed. Then pronounced their dismissal. 

I'd like to greet my Auntie Gemma a HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY!! God Bless you good health and your family. More years to come and more life to your years. God Bless, always!!

My Birthday!

It's my birthday and also the 72nd Araw ng Davao. I decided to wear striped-violet polo shirt paired with a denim jeans.  I used to wear white uniforms during Mondays but since its my natal day, i declared my free day [chuckles]. Happy birthday also to my Dear Mother. Love you always, Ma!

Ma'am Sol greeted me first. She was talking with Ma'am Julie of Rudy's Art. I dropped by her office for awhile, responded "Thank you". Saw our pictures for the Souvenir program. We all looked beautiful. Thanks Ma'am Julie!

When I entered the room, I was flooded by greetings of my students. They were all looking at me with smiles on their faces. They couldn't believed I am already 30 years old..[wow, flattered!] I don't look my age daw..[wow na naman!!] My secret? Stay happy.

I gave their final exams first [nosebleeding..torture for them----> hehehe] then treat them all with an ice cream. Pasensiya ang absent. Di makaka ice cream..hehehe. We took pictures while enjoying cookies 'n cream. Hope they all loved it! I could sense it anyway. Their appreciation made my heart cheers in joy. I love making people happy. You're all welcome!

Lunch time, Mui came. We had lunch with some of our students. 

This afternoon, we are to start their Final Exam: Skills Demonstration for their upcoming NC 2 exam. Hope they all passed! From phase 1-4. Exhausting talaga kasi you had to Start Housekeeping, do handwashing [no assuming, please!] then Making Bed without patient then with patient. Then, transport patient and do transferring from bed to wheelchair, wheelchair to bed then proceed with Handling waste in an Environment. We kept on reminding them to make use of the proper body mechanics.  Correct folding means correct bed making.

The first two pairs seemed very nervous. They were mistakes. They missed on small things that shoudn't be forgotten. So, Ma'am Chem and I reminded them to take note of their errors. Pardon our strict mode, it's for their own good. In-between return demonstrations, my cellphone never run out of messages, it just keeps pouring in. Glad to hear my Aunt's voice who works in Dubai. She called to greet me. Hope to see you soon, auntie! Take good care of yourself, always.

Pass 4pm, when everybody is exhausted, we felt hungry. I asked them what flavor of ice cream would they prefer. Chocolate, Rocky Road, Cookies 'n Cream but Double dutch top their choices. The second year students bought a cake for me at GOLDILOCKS. ayyyy, how sweet!

Just like any birthday celebration, there's this blowing of candles. I just can't get it why 4 little violet [my favorite color recently] candles were given to them. I'd understand if it was 3, representing 3 centuries [hahaha, parang ang tanda ko na, kasicenturies...hahaha!!]" What am i 40?", I asked in jest. We all laughed out loud.

We paused for awhile, the celebrant lead the prayer. We all shared the sweet foods with people from the Admin, Faculty members and students of PM session. We took pictures as remembrance. Ophelei's new 'gigicam' [our very own term for digicam] has super steady shot, we all look gorgeous in it. Captured every movement at its own pace. 

Around 6:38pm, we parted ways. Everybody said "Thank you." I always responded, "You're welcome." Kulang na lang, "Thank you, come again". Hahahaha!!!

I left school almost 7pm carrying a box of cake. My sister and our working were busy cooking when I got home. So little time to prepare, I went outside to buy additional viands. 

I only had few visitors. Thank you Auntie Gemma, En-en, Reina and hubby Anthony for dropping by. Some of my friends were in Davao, were on-duty at the Hospital, somewhere else [chuckles]. 

Pass 9pm, lalai, fresh from Davao came by with her bro and sister. We talked to catch up on things and whereabouts.

I slept around 1am after printing some paper works. Gosh, tomorrow is another day. Thank you, dear Lord for this day. I had a very wonderful day. Looking forward for another 30 years of my life. Goodnight, everyone!

30 wishes for my 30th birthday

Exactly 45 minutes from now, I'm turning 30. Wow! 30 years of living on earth, facing struggles, battling trials, surviving, enjoying life's precious moments. 30 years old would now reflect in my resume's or when filling up any form..not 28, not 29 but 30 years old. The middle adulthood stage. Makes me remember the stages of Growth and Development I once imparted to my students. This age also puts a person at high risk for pregnancy. I know.

What it's like? What's the feeling? I still feel the same thing, same as I felt during my twenties. 30 is only a number, a value. That doesn't change anything. I still am the jolly, sometimes childish bern you knew. There will never be change but will have progress.

Few days ago, 13 going 30 was shown on HBO. I've always love that Movie. I love the eagerness of Jenna in fighting for her love, making her realize and value the true meaning of friendship and love. That friendships [some] does blossoms into love.

Yesterday, MMK on ABS-CBN features the story of an old maid. Were those signs? I don't know. I just laugh at it. People at home would tease me.

In my 30 years, I never regret anything. I may have experience difficult times in achieving my dreams and accomplishing my task but in every way or another, I have given my best.Though sometimes, it just wasn't good enough but I'll try harder and will never give up.

Thanks to those early birds who sent their greetings via text messaging. To my students who made their advance greetings [magkikita pa din naman tayo bukas].

I'm now at a point in my life where people around me would kept asking why until now i'm not yet married. "Why?", they asked. "Why?", I asked myself. I guess I was too busy with my life to be bothered by the thought of settling down. I believed in Destiny. I know God has a purpose why until now I'm single. Single but happy. Free. No heartaches, no pain, no misery [chuckles]. My friends would surely send in their comments or call me when they get to read this.

I actually have a lot of wishes. Few of them were already accomplished and came to reality on the first quarter of this year. Thank you GOD for all the blessings and for the upcoming ones. Good or bad, it's still a blessing. But I'd still prefer the good ones [chuckles].

I wish..
1. Good health [not just for me, but including my family, my pets, my friends and my relatives]

8. To go to Tagaytay, Boracay and Subic
9. To save more and be stable, financially [admit it, who wouldn't want to include this on their list], to be thrifty [although i know how to save, still i'm a slight impulsive]
10. For Love life [?] ahmm..wait till he comes in my life. i think he's on his way [chuckles]
11. For the much prayed-for license
12. Our yearbook will be release soon
13. To be more productive and creative
14. To be a more effective educator

20. To obtain a driver's license [a mandatory requirement of course when owning a vehicle, right?]
21. To buy a CD/DVD writer
22. Learn new software application
23. To volunteer and serve my community
24. To buy our own lechon tray [i've always wanted to dropped by Sta. Cruz or Bato whenever I go to Davao to buy one sana but I keep on posponing the opportunity]
25. To own a resort
26. To own an internet cafe
27. To have a small business on personalized stuffs [the one that makes personalized mugs, etc.]

Don't worry, i'll take care of Papa and my sister. I'll make you proud. I will pass that exam for you and for GOD's glory. May it be my time.

Happy Birthday to myself! GOD BLESS 3o-year-old bern =)

my voice is back!

rejoice for my voice has regained its normal state. God loved me. He gave me a wonderful sunday to cheer. Thank you for the gift. Salabat is really effective!

oh yeah, i can now sing. i can now vocalize la la la la la...hahaha!  people cannot make fun of me anymore.  Its kinda annoying sometimes.  Kamo daw beh. It's not funny. I simply ignore them, yet irritating.  Hence, they would received a raised eyebrow for doing that. 

I still drink salabat despite its awful [for me] taste and sweet-bitter taste.

We started the oral interview. Chem left early while Essa and I continued on conversing the 2nd year individually.  We evaluated how they answer to each question and gave them tips on how to converse with their Assessor properly. 

Essa reminded them to be conscious with the time during the interview.  We mentioned some pointers and then pronounced dismissal. Phew! Another meeting has ended.

Gen and Pi invited us to go and eat at a Pizza parlor near Mary Mediatrix Church. We had Sisig and Pepperoni Pizza. We chatted for the time being until we came to talk about my upcoming birthday. We planned to go to Camp Sabros to enjoy the enchanting view of Mountains and Adventure of its rides. Their first time, my second. Can't wait.

The food trip was awesome. So full. Thank Gen and Pi for the treat. These girls does love to eat a lot! [chuckles]

still hoarse

I'm happy to wake up this morning with a slight voice. I took a sip of hot salabat, still hoping to soothe my throat. We are to meet up with the HCS graduating students this afternoon for their Final Coaching in the upcoming NC 2 exam. 

Hope all of them passed! Anyways, the Provincial Director had an ocular inspection on the Funda Lab. The result was good, but still need to be seen by the Assessor from Davao Oriental for our School to be an Accredited Assessment Center for Health Care Services.

Thank you for the Mocha Roll cake Ma'am Van!! God bless your undeniably kind heart!!  [chuckles] 


Hope to regain my normal voice tomorrow..goodnight!!

husky voice

I woke up this morning with no voice. All you'd hear from me is an on and off voice, more like a defective speaker [chuckles]. I still went to school, met up with my students. They were shocked when I spoke.

8:30am Luckily, TESDA people from Region XI will come to visit our School and conduct the orientation for the TESDA Scholarship Programs at ANNEX, to start in an hour.

I collected assignments from my students and dismissed them early, since this blogger enrolled in a Scholarship Program in Food and Beverage Services NC 2, with Chem and Jopay.

We set-up the whole Funda Lab for ocular inspection by the TESDA Provincial Director.

For the meantime, we stayed inside the Funda Lab. Ma'am Julie of Rudy's Art Photography came by to hand-in the pictures during our 2nd Pinning Ceremony. Gwapa jud ming tanan oi! We will make sure our documentation will be as fabulous as the event, so those people who have little understanding on the significane of the event will realize that 2-year courses does have a ceremony like that of a 4-year Bachelor courses. Thank you, Ma'am Julie!

10am Chem and I hopped in to Gene's car going to ANNEX. When we got there, few enrollees participated in the orientation. Some went home na daw.

Engr. Nestor S. Tabada, Provincial Director - Davao City/Davao del Sur explained the duties and responsibilities as a TESDA Scholar and pointed out some reminders. The orientation didn't last long. After the short speech, we were called to sign the Scholarship Vouchers by Mrs. Panuela, FASD Chief of Finance and Administrative Services Division, Davao del Sur and submitted our photos. That's it! We are now TESDA Scholars! I'm excited..when will be our first day? hehehe

Going back to school this afternoon, I met up with the 2nd year students and taught some tips on their upcoming NC 2 exam despite the hoarseness of my voice. They were mimicking me pa nga eh. I still tried to teach them.

Afterwards, we leaved school going to Warehouse to stroll around and buy some goods.

4:40pm We were done paying at the Counter and I felt my feet started complaining. Yeah, Pucca is tired na..Gikapoy na akong beauty.

SmileyCentral.com

5pm I came home tired, hungry, carrying loads of folders with a bag of some grocery items. Was happy to see our dogs, wagging their tails trying to relieve my tiredness. I just love them so much. I never got to buy salabat [pulverized Philippine version for ginger tea] =( Wala ng stock.

By the way, bought a new mug, nice design! Baptized its use in trying Ji**s Choco 5 in 1 Mix with Agaricus Mushroom Extract Plus Spirulina. I surely include this always on my To-buy list when going to the Grocery. I love the taste, creamy and healthy as well. Can be served hot or cold.

6pm I was watching TV when I suddenly remembered my dues at Herbito's. I changed clothes in a snap and left home. Yes, still in my hoarse voice, umalis pa rin ako. I couldn't ask my sister naman to pay it. Ate ping and company was surprised to hear me. I even headed to the market to buy vegetables and look for salabat. I really had to. Imagine how I deal with the sellers and tricycle driver. =) hahaha..they always give me a second look. hehehe..

When i got home, I immediately tried the salabat I bought. Wow, i felt the soothing effect in my throat. I hope I'd wake up tomorrow, with a normal voice na.

Goodnight, everyone!!

My first time in GenSan

General Santos City.  The "Tuna Capital of the Philippines". Oh, how I wish we could actually explore the place but that was not our main purpose of going there. 

Today is our Examination day for the National Assessment for Health Care Services NC II.  

7:00am..Chem and I meet up at the Bus Terminal. This friend of mine is not the typical traveller. She hates long travels for it triggers her motion sickness [ya know what i mean]. But then, she was able to get over it when we were in College. 

7:30am..Rode a Deluxe Holiday Bus. While waiting, I told Chem there's an unattended bag on the opposite side of our seat, on my right side. She smiled at me, somewhat telling me I'm just freaking paranoid. Maybe the owner went to comfort room, bought something or went somewhere else. 

I was just trying to be observant and alert at that time. I was thinking of our safety and security. A lot of "What If's" were running through my mind.  My eyes was like roaming and inspecting, making sure all belongings inside the bus is placed beside its owners.  But that bag, it stayed there for almost 15minutes. It made me more anxious. 15minutes, for crying out loud! Inspite of this, I was apparently calm. 

Where the heck is the owner of that bag? Pass 25minutes, still no one is seated next to it and I was totally scared. I looked at Chem and was about to stand to report to the Bus driver when a middle aged man came through and finally seated next to the bag, which freaked the heck out of me and gave me goosebumps. I was a bit relieved. Chem finally heard me talking.  

In a minute, the bus driver began manipulating the bus' steering wheel. Prayed to God to bless our trip. I looked at the person who owned the bag. "If he only knew", says my mind, then laid my back comfortably on the seat looking ahead on the road. 

On our way, Chem slept the whole time while inside the bus. Me? I was busy sight seeing though at times, I take a nap. The road going to GenSan made me dizzy for awhile. I just needed to close my eyes. 

9:33am..we're finally in General Santos City. I was texting Ma'am Sol where were we and extended her wishes for us. I'm the type of person who wants to remember the landmarks of the places i went to, most especially if its my first time.

10am..Dropped ourselves infront of Gaisano Mall. Our dear friend Van was waiting for us outside the mall. We headed to the comfort zone for ladies to freshen up and to pee. The trip caused our digestive organs to complain, waiting for something to digest. Van took us to SPAZIO, hmmm actually my first time there and its meals looked and sounded delectable. Anyways, the tres marias [3 ladies] ordered pasta. We didn't pass the moment to take pictures and even asked one of its staff to take our photos. Thanks Mister! 

We chatted while enjoying our meal and decided to go to HTC after lunch. 

1:00pm..At the entrance of HTC, we were welcomed with trophies, plaques and other memorabilias of achievements and recognition of the school. Amazing! We were accomodated by its staff, assisted us in filling up forms and guided us throughout the application process. 

Skills Demonstration examination and interview pushed through. 
Chem and I did our very best and it paid-off.
WE PASSED THE HEALTH CARE SERVICES NC II ASSESSMENT
Thank GOD!

Thank you so much to the HCS Department of the HTC for such a warm welcome and accomodation.  To Ma'am Cynthia, the School Nurse; Ma'am Lia, HCS Department Head; Ma'am Jane, one of the Faculty members and to the Assessor Ma'am CM. Our profound gratitude. Until our next meeting.

Thank you also to our friend Van who accompanied us. You are such a blessing. GOD BLESS!! Before heading home, we passed by KCC Mall and dined at Mandarin. But, of course! Something should be celebrated. After which, we strolled around for awhile and then parted ways. 
The bus left the Terminal at 7:50pm. I guess that was the last trip back to Digos City. Chem and I settled at the backseat of the driver. I sent a text message to Papa that his dear daughter is on her way home. I don't want him to worry kasi eh.

10pm..I'm home. Tired but happy. Exhausted but fulfilled. Thank you, Lord! It was a worth-it travel. What we've gone through was not easy. It was tough. I could still feel some body malaise. It's been a while since I did some body mechanics.  I just pray our students would surpass all the competencies. 

Hopefully, soon. Goodnight, everyone!! GOD IS GOOD ALL THE TIME. =)
