The Power of Thunder Black

_bLaCk team. . .CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!

To all the competing teams of this event, we are all winners because we’ve made the CA Sports fest 2009 a successful activity in gaining friends and learning from them whom we meet outside the four corners of the classroom.

CONGRATULATIONS!!!! Let’s make it this coming Intramurals 2009.

The Hidden Cultural Admiration with in a known Filipino Artist

He values Cordillera culture. His art works and films focus on cultural awakening. I thank God for we had the chance to interview him though he has a busy schedule. We learned lot from this man. He is defined as Simple, Intelligent and Humble.

The one only Kidlat Tahimik will be considered as a great contributor for cultural integrity. Thanks Kuya, Tatay, Sir. You served as an inspiration for us.

In terms of commitment

The show, Power to Unite with Elvira entertained two MasCom instructors from the University of the Philippines. One of the guests said that dealing with communication is not just a glamour career. It means hard work and discipline. It also includes passion, commitment and public service.

As a Development Communication (DevCom) student, I’m happy to hear this statement from them, it helped me understand more our hardships. Somehow, they inspired me. Even though we are stressed with all our paper works, we still have to rise and face the challenge as Public Servants.

ALL ABOUT WORDS AND ACTS

I attended the mass last Sunday and I was really inspired.
Based on the script, Jesus said that it is not what man takes in that makes him bad, rather the goodness of man’s heart reflects the real man and the son of God.
True! It is not all about staying at the church praising and praying for how many hours but it’s all about what we do outside the church for a long period of time. Attendance in the church does not determine the real act of a man.
It’s not all about what we do during Sunday, but what we do from Monday to Sunday.
This is a simple reflection of who we really are.

D¹°= D³

With the theme, “A decade of dashing, daring and determined,” University Secretary ma’am Grace Bengwayan converted it to mathematical equation, D¹°= D³.

I thank God for this week because we were able to celebrate a decade for DevCom program. It has been 10 years f sacrifices and struggles in which we owe to the pioneering batch. Yes! It is worth to be celebrated.

I will never forget this week. I learned so many things from the opening of the week until the closing. It was not just a week full of fun, rather it dared to inspire every faculty member and student to strive harder until DevCom would become a college.

This is it! I realized that we really have a great responsibility in this institution. What touches me most is the 8th Little Victories. I would just have to keep inside my realizations in this real world.

I hope and pray that we could also accomplish what our brothers have accomplished during their internship.

Indeed, this celebration is of great help not only for me, but for us, the lower years.

Mabuhay DevCom!

"FOR-EVER MODEL"

Thank God for sharing maam Bets with us

INSPIRATION

“Small but influential!” That’s how I describe her. I really thank God because I met her. For all of us, she is an inspiration. That is why even if we have complicated schedule, we volunteered because we know we will learn many things from her. In short, we believe that this sacrifice is worth it.

CHALLENGING

She shared to us their struggles as pioneering batch of Development Communication Program. Their struggle before was really different to what should have been our struggle this generation. As a respect to every part of their sacrifice, we accept then a great responsibility for us to continue and accomplish. We will continue what they’ve started.

MADER BETS,

Thank You! Thank You! Thank You for coming back just to teach your younger sisters and brothers. With this, you’ve also taught us how to value and sustain the society where we belong, the DevCom Society. We will maximize this short span of time learning with you. Thank You for sharing with us your skills. You’re a MODEL mader Bets. For-ever MODEL.

"Moving Forward, Caring with out End"

“One of the memorable events happened in my life this year is when I finally receive my cap!” For her, this is just the starting point of everything. This capping builds a strong foundation for her to move forward, and to care with out end.

My cousin said that her cap is small in size but its equivalent to a great responsibility. Roan Jill is the youngest in our generation. We have 1 year gap so we had the chance to develop not only our relationship as first cousins but as friends, or best friends even.

We seem to be batch mates, and we know each other better and deeper. We share stories and struggles of our lives, families, studies and friends. Since childhood, high school, and college days, we were always together.

Time has come to take her away from me. We were just given 1 year to enjoy each other’s presence this college. We are all residing at the same house before, but now, she has to transfer to accompany our grandma in her house somewhere in Tuba. I was really hurt to know it in the first place, although we could have chance to see each other, unfortunately, we are affected through our busy days.

In short, I miss her so much!

We attended her capping at Easter College, August 9. I realized that I can’t express my feelings, that I miss her so much. I suppose there’s already a gap between us which I accept given our distance from each other. On the other hand, this distance helps us rebuild our closeness.

Our parents and elders bonded us so close since we were young which we carry until now. Our first cousins seem to be our real brothers and sisters. One family member graduate each year, leaves and finds work, because that’s life. Yes! We can’t be together for-ever!

I miss her. I miss all my cousins.

Jill jill, galpook, roan, roan jill, saso! (hehehe) Congratulations!! Do your best to surpass all the challenges that may come your way. Among the girls in our family, you’re the only one who took nursing.

Love you so much insan! Ajah! Keep up! We can do this!
