A Year Later After I Graduate

Woooh! Eksakto palang isang taon na ang nakalipas nang ako ay nagtapos ng kolehiyo. Ang bilis naman ng panahon… Kabilang pala ako sa Ika-97 na Pangkalahatang Pagtatapos sa Taon ng Sentenaryo ng UP.

Naalala ko lang kasi matapos kong tumitingin sa mga larawan ng aking mga kaklase at mga kaibigan sa kanilang pagtatapos nitong Linggo lamang. Continue reading

Holy Week at Pangasinan

This last holy week was my first time to be away from my family. I usually spend holy week at home or sometimes at my ninang’s house in Bataan. I remember, when I was in my elementary days, when I spend holy weeks in our home, I usually play tumbang preso or patintero across the street together with my neighbors and cousins. That was our only time to take control of the whole street. :) But of course, we still observe holy week. We only play during Wednesdays and a bit sometimes on Thursdays. We were always reminded that we should not be celebrating or making fun during these season; that we should reflect. While in our province in Bataan, they observe holy week, as far as I know (because I was a kid back then), by having pabasa. I also witnessed penetensya where several devouts were hitting theirselves on their back. Continue reading

On Local Gameshows (Again)

I would like to mention the newest (currently airing) and some soon to be game shows that will hit our local free TV.

  • Pilipinas, Game KNB? (ABS-CBN2) – Another format for another year. It seems that every year PGKNB changes its format. Is this to consider the viewers being fed up of the previous format? And some elements in the set of ’1 vs 100′ are used.. notice its main backdrop. So when will  ’1 vs 100′ be aired?
  • Pinoy Bingo Night (ABS-CBN2) – Replaced ‘Kapamilya, Deal or No Deal’. Another pure luck game show… on primetime. How I wish they bring back ‘Wheel of Fortune’… But this the show’s set is cool and the concept of having its audience actually participate during the game is good. Continue reading

Trip to Ilocos

It always amuses me whenever I see pictures of the old houses at Ilocos. I associate Ilocos as very clean place; I don’t know where I got this idea. But since the first time I heard about this place, I longed about going to this place. Not until around two months ago, I just went to Ilocos together with a friend. I was very excited about that trip. Partly, I was eager to get this trip, not only because it was my dream to go to Ilocos, but also to release any stress or tension I feel during the past few days before the trip. Ah… to get away from the very busy city. Aside from excitement, unfortunately, I was not able to prepare well for the trip. I have not bought any special thing to bring or researched about the places that we are going to visit in reference to our itinerary. Continue reading
