heal me.

It is already vacation time, yet I am still so occupied with various concerns and loads.

We joined Bayani Challenge 2007 last April 9 – 13 at Daraga, Albay. I was with my bunso, Ren and Tony. The experience as a whole was very enjoyable and insightful though, there are several moments when I opted to walk through the dark streets alone, sit by the grass and talk with the star-laden sky. That was then that I realized that I don’t know myself completely.

On the lighter note, I missed the bonding and moments I had with my TAMVOL family and with my newly found friends (Team AYALA). It was fun building houses with YFC, Miriam College, and PUP people. Not to mention, I met some of the delegates of AYLC 2007 (Nikki, Rap, Steff, MR, Marvs, Carlo) and some of the AYLA. Special mention to Kuya Ralph Morales of AYLC Alumni Relations for extending the invitation.
YMCA Congress friend, Karen, who is from B.U. also visited me. I was so moved and realized that I missed my congress (Commission 1 and 12) friends a lot.

I will be working soon for e-PLDT Ventus in Ortigas. I am still waiting them to ring my phone though for my interview.

***
I missed a couple of batch get-together already. My best Rain already came home from Singapore for her OJT. I feel I am being negligent with my post as batch prexy. I missed them all though.

***
I joined the most recent immersion in our adopted Dumagat community in Rizal, after a very significant year. Ate Merci missed me a lot.

Finally, we are already seniors come June! Feels like it’s just a flick of an hour. Whoah! I am preparing a class petition against a professor-who-need-not-be-named. Just the same, I feel like listing down 10 most significant events that happened during my junior year:

1. served as the Auditor of the IAS Student Council – met my chumies, learned to love the institute and its students, initiated several projects
2. inspired the publication of the Paragon – though we were unable to come out with an issue
3. became a Galing Pilipino Young Leader
4. was FEU’s sole representative in the AYLC 2007 Top 140. (Danilo Cortez was, in his batch)
5. received a flat mark from Cristina Santos (sociolinguistics). Twas such a feat! Mind you.
6. obtained my lowest remark!
7. lost IASSC Presidency and gained a new family (IAS Sandigan Council)
8. elected as Tamaraw Volunteers’ and English Language Circle’s President.
9. continued passion towards community service
10. sold our house
