Last saturday, we went to back to our NSTP institution for the first time this sem. I was half awake the whole time cause Miguel threw a party the night before and i was able to sleep for only three hours. Anyway, i never really look forward to saturday mornings because of NSTP. I feel sorry that i feel this way about it but, i really find it as 4 unproductive hours.
Okay, Here's the scenario and the reason why i feel this way. You ask the kids to go there early in the morning to study, something they have been doing the past 5 days. Studying early saturday mornings aren't really words that should be together. I believe that saturdays are for taking back the lack of sleep you inccured the entire week.
Well, actually my point here is if you want this kind of program to be effective, do it during the weekdays. Incorporate it with the curriculum of the school so that the children will see it as a school activity. When it's counted as a school activity, i believe the children will take it more seriously. I know this will work because it has worked for us in High School. In Tulong Dunong, We went to the school of the kids to tutor them every thursday afternoon. We were greeted with smiles and exitement, you could really feel their eagerness to learn. And I guess they were also just happy to know that their next period would be something different, something away from the norm, away from the boring teachers (Maybe. Haha.) for a while. I guess it's unfair for me to compare, but if the program really aims to tutor and help those kids and is not just a requirement then i guess this would be an effective way to do that.
After NSTP, met up with ate we went home to eat lunch. (Mamita's Lechon Kawali. Yum yum. Headache after. Haha) Right after, we went straight to paranaque to meet up with the BLD Youth for our outreach with the Lolos and Lolas. This is actually my first to mingle with the old, i mean to go to an outreach with the old. I had mixed feelings going there. What i had in mind was actually playtime with little kids as it has always been like that for the past years. This was different. I thought i wouldn't enjoy as much. But of course, I'm writing this because I'm wrong. Pinangaunahan ko. It was so worth my time. Nothing really beats the feeling of making other people smile, be it old or young. I was late beause i came from NSTP, so i just joined Mike, Ge, and Jon with their circle. We were just listening to Lolo Emilio. As i was listening i felt contented. I felt happy for what i was doing. I realized then that the time that you give them listening to their stories was enough. It's more than the giveaways, more than the food, more than anything. It's just heart warming, i've been complaining for the past weeks that i still can't feel Christmas, and i thank my Lolas and Lolos for making me feel it. I Thank Lolo Emilio for his war stories, Kahit na mahirap maintindihan yung iba, ang saya pa rin. 
So blessed, i can't contain it. So much you have to give it away.
On to Manny Pacquiao. He was awesome. That's all i can say. Mabuhay ang Pinoy! I didn't expect him to win actually. The odds were just against him. Weight, Height, Reach and lot more. But i guess there was one thing i left out. And it the most important, the heart to win. Woo. Cheesy. But it's true. Haha. Lakas mo Manny!
I couldn't find a picture of his Bilboard in C5 eh. Ang angas nun. I like it.
FE 78 had a reunion at home last sunday, and it was good to see them again. We all watched how Manny beat the hell out of Dela Hoya.
I've been addicted to a website lately, it's called Akinator. It asks 20 questions or less and he'll guess the person you have in mind. It's just too bad it doesn't know John Lloyd. Haha. But try it. It's really fun. Just click on the link.
Woo. I need to study accounting. Yummy. 
My test is on the 16th. Pray with me guys. Let's get it on!
Currently feeling: good
