Theology First Shooting Day

These photos are taken about a month ago while shooting our video presentation for our theology subject.

I have nothing much to say so I will let the photos do the talking.

New Blog Address

I have been thinking about my blog this week. This blog has been outdated. No recent blog post. I am planning to revamp my blog but I cannot come up with an idea yet. And so, I thought of changing my blog title or changing my blog address. After so much thinking, I have decided to change my blog address rather than change my blog title. I am not really good at giving adorable titles :(  so it's hard for me to think of another one.

This blog title really sounds familiar. I know it's not unique and original but I love it. I wanted my blog title to start with the letter S because my name starts with this letter.

 And this came out to my mind first "spice up your life :)".

This really suits the reason why I decided to keep this blog posted.

(FYI: this blog was created for school purposes. read my first post HERE)

I wanted to spice up my life through blogging.

I hope that in the years to come, I would become a better and more responsible blogger.

By the way, my new blog address is

spiceupeverything.blogspot.com

                                                                                                                          love lots,

This is IT!

location: Woodridge, Maa, Davao

just photos of me...this is the first time.

a post that purely contains photos of me alone :)

Blog Updated

Hello blogworld! It's been along time since my last blogpost. I've been very busy with school stuff -- exams, quizzes, assignment and project. There's no exciting event that had happened so I don't have something to share. I would take this opportunity to create a blogpost since I'm already logged in.

This would be a very boring post...no pictures. But I appreciate if you still read! :) The following are my random thoughts:

Let's talk about VALENTINE'S DAY! 

It was just an ordinary day for me. I didn't receive anything -- not even a stem of rose. When I arrived in school, I saw many girls holding flowers and gifts. I thought to myself: "sana may matanggap din ako today." I didn't expect anything so I was still happy that day. ( I don't feel bitter) Unlike my classmate, she's kinda bitter but she has a boyfriend and received a gift that day. I don't understand her. To change her mood, I told her: "Everyday should be Valentine's Day!" and she said in reply: " TAMA! we don't need valentine's day to show love and be loved." That conversation changed her mood.

I had a dinner date with my family on the night of Feb14. We ate at NJoy BBQ located at Lanang. It's a new restaurant so we try it out. They serve pork and chicken barbeques, soup, vegetable dishes and many more. They also offer "UNLIMITED RICE" --favorite of Davaoeños. I didn't have a chance to take pictures because I was tired from school and already very hungry.

25TH AWITENISTA 

I watched the 25th Awitenista Grand Finals held @ CAP Auditorium last Feb. 19, 2012.

What  is Awitenista by the way? Awitenista is an original song composition contest open to all Ateneo Community.

14 bands competed for the trophy of the 25th Awitenista. There were different categories -- Religious, Nationalistic, Contemporary, and Jam Atenista (song about Ateneo stuff). Two of my classmates were lucky to qualify in the Grand Finals. I'll try if I can post their songs here. I didn't take photos because we're seated so far from the stage and I only have a digital camera. I will try if I can grab photos from somebody and post it on this blog. ( I will ask permission. I promise)

OK! I think that's all for today!

Wanna share your thoughts?

Library Hangout

I would like to share to you one of my activities in school every semester....

 I'm working in the ADDU library as a student assistant..

Wonder why I'm working there? here's the story..

Before I finished my enrollment  in Ateneo de Davao University,  I applied first for their Scholaship Program. I'm frotunate enough that my application was accepetd and the scholarship was granted to me. In return of this Scholarship, I am asked to work for 30 hours every semester. During my freshmen days, i tried working on some offices like Campus Ministry and FYDP. But the only working place that I'm comfortable with is th LIBRARY. So since then, I regularly work in our library specifically on the Filipiniana and Reference Section. The palce is so serene and the one supervising me is not stict.  (FYI: I can work for a minimum of 2 hours and a maximum of 4 hours a day. The date  and time is my choice. I just work whenever I have free time or whenever I wanted. No Pressure!)

When I'm Not doing something or if I'm already done with the things assigned to me, BOREDOM strikes...

and this is what I do...TAKING PICTURES!

the things I need for covering books

Scholar Service Time Record (SSTR)-- i record my working hours here.

I'm not really good at taking photos. haha. 

Spice Up!

White Flag Raised

During the first week of January, I decided to create a TUMBLR. account wherein I could post and share my short random thoughts. But I'm having trouble changing the theme and the title of my tumblr blog account. It remained untitled upto now. I've tried many times to customize its appearance and after how many minutes of waiting....nothing happened. The customized appearance still wasnt saved. It pissed me off so I decided to stop and giive up on TUMBLR....

TUMBLR. no more!

I'm raising my white flag now tumblr..

But I'm still hoping that I could succesfully make an account. Can somebody out there help me please?

xo,

spice up!

Christmas Eve

I know this post is kinda overdue but I think I still have to publish it. It was supposed to be posted last Dec. 25 but I didn't have the time to turn on the computer and update my blog  for the past 3 days.

It was around 8:00 in the evening when we started to drive around downtown to look for people sleeping on the streets with nothing to eat for noche buena. We prepared a little present for them. Something that they could eat and share with their family as they welcome the Christmas Day. It was just a small package but we hope that we made them happy.

My dad started giving gifts to the less fortunate last year. It was only 7 packages then and now it's 14 packages. (his fave number is 7 and he's planning to add 7 more packages each year. so next year [if my dad's resources would allow him], it would be a total of 21 packages to be given on Christmas eve) This is his way to give back and share the blessings he received for the whole year. A way to reach out and make other people happy. It was fulfilling seeing people forming smiles on their faces as they receive our humble gift. There were indeed many homeless people living in the cold streets. Some of them may have not eaten something and just put themselves to sleep so they couldn't think of the hunger. I hope that people would see this situation and help them even in a small way. I know you may think they would become dependent if they would always receive gifts but it is not bad to share. Let's just make sure that they are not being abusive and becoming a parasite. I still believe that it is better to teach them how to catch fish than just to feed them. I am looking forward to see more happy faces next year.

Love,
