Beyond my Imagination

That's Amore Ball: I wish it was him It's not about showing your dress, or looking fab with your make-up but it's all about SEIZING THE MOMENT. A moment where I thought, I wished, I hoped, IT WAS HIM.  Charrr!! mao najud bitaw ni.. My experience was okay, not that special but it was a great night. The day before the ball, I didn't really felt excited about it, instead I felt unease joining the event. It was my first time to join an event like that, since I was not able to attend junior's prom because of my athlete trainings. I enjoyed my night with my friends and classmates, the food that I ate, the pictures that we’ve shared, and the dances. Unexpectedly, there are men who offered their hands for a dance with me and I can’t deny feeling flattered and nervous at the same time. However, that flattery hides the wants of my heart to dance with the man that I love. Each dance I had was an imaginary scenario of me and him. I thought a dance that we

I MISS IT ALL; MY LAST DAY OF IMMERSION            I miss it all... The things that we get used to do in our immersion place, the warm smiles of the people, the smell of paints and papers, and the foods that is worth to stay. In my last day, I started it with a big smile on my face as I came in the BAC department. With their knowledge, they always say "Mahuman najud mo diri, mingaw na kaayu mi huhu." Honestly, leaving them was not easy, I know how hard and stressful their job is, and at least there was a time were they felt being relieved by our help.            I miss it all... The bondings and the relationship we've built in each department, they made us feel like we are one of them. I actually like how my brother handle me there, I wasn't expecting how he manage to give me "meriendas" and things that I might needed. I was fond with the jokes they bring out against my brother, they threatened him that they might spill out all the crazy actions

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

A New Feeling A new Feeling, I guess. As I step to the gate of the Department of Public Works and Highways, I felt the urge to learn and to work.  Heart beats fast, as I was being deployed in the construction department. I was adjusting in the new aura of the place. The smell of the papers, inks, and folio papers that lingers in my nose, made me felt something new.            My First Day was merely an adjusting day for me, my first job was to encode the materials of the construction projects and it was fun to do it. I also did some taking notes of the sites where bridge widening was being build. Furthermore, I slowly got to memorize each faces of the workers there. The big smiles, the hospitality of the workers, and how they manage to be open on addressing us students. They taught us how to learn and how to act like professionals. To sum it all up, it was a great day in starting my experience in exploring our future field. I look forwar

Pre-Immersion Orientation and Send Off Ceremony            Attitude is more important than the achievements we have. In the pre-immersion orientation, I learned a lot of things and it widens my perspective in the idea of immersing. There are three simple yet strong learnings that I learned. One of the things I learned is to be neat and presentable in front of everyone that you  will look professional in appearance. Secondly, we must be true in writing our own resumes and application letters that we may be able to express our objectives and good intentions. Lastly, the best thing I learned is that attitude is important beyond anything, for it is the best thing you could ever have upon being a kind individual.                    On the other note, the send off ceremony was a blast for me. It was a feeling of joy and sorrow. A feeling for joy that we may be able to be sent off in the new environment in immersing ourselves to the different fields. A feeling of sorrow for in that
