I WAS gone for three days because?our trekking to Sitio Kiangkos, Brgy. Pag-asa, Alabel, Sarangani Province. I have not taken enough rest yet so I will be telling you about it soon. There’s a lot of work for me to do here as the official documentor of the event. The Alabel East District officials expects me to compose a narrative report?of the journey, which they will be submitting to the DepEd Sarangani Division Office. I am still writing it now and I am organizing the pictures to accompany the report. I’ll be posting a copy of it on this blog, too.

ON MONDAY until Wednesday, I will be scaling the heights of the mountains in my town for the post Christmas gift-giving dubbed as Tuloy and Pasko ng mga Bata.

I will go with the team composed of DepEd officials of Sarangani to distribute goods and to conduct?a fun day for the kids at Sitio Kiangkos, Brgy. Pag-Asa, Alabel, Sarangani Province.

The area is a mountainous place that is beyond the reach of vehicles. As I’ve heard, we have to walk about 5 hours on a steep trek to get to the place. So we actually set one day for the trip to the area and another one for the journey back home.

ANOTHER BAD news:

Marcie loses her wallet
Primary suspect: fellow LET passer

STILL PISSED?off with PRC, we decided to take our lunch after the chaos called Oathtaking Cermonies of Professional Teachers?last Saturday.

Just before we ordered, we realized that Marcie’s bag was missing. Not so long after, my friend and fellow physics major decided that she had left at the venue, so off she went with Ian.

She was crying when she answered my call, “I saw my bag but my wallet is missing.” She added that the bag was already open when she found it still perched on the chair she occupied several hours ago.

BAD NEWS first:

PRC spoils my day

FOR THE nth time now, the staff of the (un)Professional Regulatory Board Regulation Commision pissed me off. This time, it happened during the Oathtaking Ceremonies pulled off for new professional teachers at the Notre Dame of Dadiangas University.

For entrants into the world of work, the day of making a promise to abide by the laws and to do?their duties well must be inspiring and worth remembering. But in our case, it is one dreadful experience.

The process of filing for a license, which was held at a public school in General Santos City, was very chaotic:

ALL THREE entries of Alabel National Science High School bagged the championship in the recently concluded 2007 Regional Intel Philippines Science Fair.

Me (in white polo) with my students (from L-R) Jasper, Eula, Eilaine, Liezel,
