My Simbalay Experience


“The best simbalay ever!” Before this year ends, I’m glad to share that this simbalay festival was the best among what I have experienced before.

Lights are everywhere and the places were beautifully arranged, wherein all people can appreciate the beauty of each barrangay’s masterpiece. I appreciate how Nabunturan impro ved in such beauty with the magnificent nature and the kind-hearted people. Among the “kubo”, I love the Pangutusan’s hand-made house for it was build according to its abundant fruit which is the coconut.


On the other note, my fun was not yet over with that experience. One of my memorable experienced in the simbalay was to participate a game in the gymnasium while we are waiting for the guests in the basketball court. It was probably a virtue with no choice in being there at the center with a huge crowd looking at you. It was embarrassing for me at the same time fun, though I can’t stop laughing while playing but even though we we’re the first pair to lose yet we got our 500 pesos by congressman Gonzaga, the “pabuya” and I can say it was all worth it. Furthermore, I didn’t expect that time, when artists showed up and came with such aura, I was mesmerized by their looks and charisma.


Overall, it was a great experience that I got to appreciate what is ours in culture of Nabunturan people with the twist of this festival. I’m excited on the next simbalay festival and I’m looking forward for more fun and new experience. J

18 THINGS I'VE LEARNED IN THE IMMERSION Be Patient. To work is to be patient in every thing you do. In our Immersion days, we were bombarded with lots of paper works, and I was one of the students whom assigned in the BAC department. Indeed, it was a lot of work like how my brother told me. I should be patient in finishing my work with satisfaction in my task. Be Humble. To work is to humble yourself in your superiors. In DPWH, they have different heads in each department, and no matter what command they want me to do, I must follow with humility and desire to obey. Be Committed. To work is to commit yourself in the tasks and assignments. BAC department has a lot of works to do but limited in people to do the job, that's why they are very thankful to have us. Of course with that thanksgiving, it was expected that they would give me tasks and assignments. By doing that, I must commit myself to finish and do it successfully. Be Open. To work is to open you

HI! Well, it's been a while since I visited my blog. Yes, I do have a lot to rush writing about my life with those two years of not visiting, hmmm I did not expect to write it all again here and express my emotions and desires. It's good that my teacher sir chad required this blog all along since it helped me express my feelings and emotions even without a grade required hehe. Soooo, college najud ko no! I'm currently a student of Bachelor in Science in Civil Engineering sa Ateneo. char! oh bayy, lucky ko tungod diri ko gipa skwela, though I cannot help to compare my friends in Nabunturan and here in Davao. I miss my Faith family and the Zeus family, there are the only sections where I could be myself more than here in my addu friends. I am writing and emoting right now because of my longingness to my high school/senior high life. I miss doing activities with my classmates in Comprehensive, singing, dancing, and even do Archery. Yes! I want to go back where everything w

JHANYRO EVENTS MANAGEMENT-Interactive Mobile Exhibit        "Is that it?".. That is the question where most students are murmuring about the "Interactive Mobile Exhibit- Jhanyro Events Management " even me, to honestly say. Of course, I had fun but it is not fun enough to learn how to do such things interactively.         First stop was the video animations about how do movies really create impossible events. It was really fun to see my schoolmates act and dance, however it wasn't quite really satisfying. To frankly say they really didn't taught us how to manage the video, there were no interactions in the applications they used and it blinded us all.         Second stop was the 3D movie marathon about the changes that are happening in our planet earth. The fun part was the objects in the video that I actually saw really focusing towards me and I can't bear to looked at it. Nevertheless, I was a bit "bitin" because of the s
