SORRY SEEMS TO BE THE HARDEST WORD
Ang hirap naman magsorry. lalo't di mo matignan man lang yung tao kasi sobrang guilty ka. Tingin ko lalo lang nakakainis kung magsosorry pa ko. Mabuti na rin sigurong ganito. Masama naman talaga ko eh.hehe. Deserve ko na siguro ang ganito.

HOW TO TIE A TIE. SHE SELLS SEA SHELLS BY THE SEA SHORE.
Dahil may Job Fair ang school bukas, nag-aral akong mag-tie ngayon. Salamat Youtube. Maaasahan ka talaga. Natuto ako ng simple at full windsor style. Kung anu pinagkaiba nun ay sa dami lang ng buhol.
Bakit kelangan ng necktie pala? Anu ba ang silbi nito sa mundo? Pampunas ng pawis? Sa totoo lang hindi ko lang alam bakit napauso ang necktie at kung sinong damuho ang nakaisip nito. Nakakapagpapawis at nakakapagpahirap pang lumunok. Kelangang hanggang dulo ibutones ang polo para maisagad ang necktie. Nakakasakal. Parang selosong syota.
P.S. Happy balentayms pala.

CAMPAIGN GUIDELINES FOR 2010 ELECTION
Just to test the characters--or if they have it--of the politicians running in 2010 elections, I decided to post the campaign guidelines the Philippine Daily Inquirer published last February 9, 2010 at section A17:
Campaign period:
February 9-May 8,2010 for national positions; March 26-May 8 for the local positions
Campaign spending:
-for president and vice president, they are allowed to spend 10 PESOS for each voter and the party can contribute another 5 PESOS. Other positions are allowed to spend 5pesos per voter and party can add 3pesos. As of January 15, 2010, there are 50,723,734 registered voters.
-For the national positions, airtime is limited to only 120 MINUTES on TV per station and 180 MINUTES on radio per station for entire campaign; for local positions, an HOUR for TV and HOUR and HALF for radio
-POSTERS made of cloth, paper or cardboard should not exceed 2x3 FEET in size. STREAMERS should not go over the mandated size of 3x8 FEET
-POSTING of CAMPAIGN MATERIALS in public places such as STREETS, BRIDGES, PUBLIC BUILDINGS, TREES, ELECTRIC POSTS AND WIRES, SCHOOLS, SHRINES AND MAIN AVENUES ARE BANNED.
If those running for government positions cannot follow this simple guidelines, what more they could violate when they're already in positions? Think.

THE PAC VISIT
Last February 1, 2010, we had our field trip to Pampanga Agricultural College. I have been to PAC before so I was already expecting what to see, but I was surprised on what I have learned from the school.
I have seen a buffalo (not a carabao I think) being milked. Sir Roy let us experience milking the animal but I did not try it because I found it cruel as I have seen in the eyes of the buffalo it was stressed. I learned that it is because of the different hands milking it. Aside from that, I think the milk shoud go to the baby buffaloes because it was intended for them, and not for us humans. PETA people might not like it too I guess.
I also learned that there are different species of bamboos and it also seeds. Seeds of bamboos do not propagate. Sir Roy also showed us the jethropas and organic pigs, as they called it. It was surprising the pigs did not stink. The veterinarian guy explained it was because they are vegetarian. The pigs are only fed with cabbages and banana leaves. This explains why they are called "organic." I wonder if sharks and crocodiles could be vegetarians too. How about Caesar's salad for lions?
Sir Roy treated us lunch in the school canteen. The kare-kare and tilapia are delicious. Sir Roy revealed to us that the rice and vegetables used in kare-kare and the tilapias we ate were harvested from the school's yard. Later Sir Roy showed us the fishpond and the rice fields. i thought it's already a self-supporting community.
The surprise did not end there. On the last part of the trip, Sir Roy introduced us the PAC's own training bank. The bank operates like the banks we know. It lends the faculty, staff and students and also let them save. Amazing isn't it? It was like an autonomous community and not really a school.
What amazed me so much with the school is the dedication of the PAC people in their work and improvement of the school, which also benefits the whole society later on. They work selflessly with every project. If it were in other schools, I think staffs and students would rather work somewhere else where they can earn money for themselves. But in PAC, it is purely for the benefit of the school and of the agriculture industry. These were the people i hope to live with in our country. Not the ones using road projects for the benefit of their own real estate properties.
