Sorry For History

Ever Since  I started to go to school, history has been a boring subject for me. Not only that, but I am not good in it for my memory is not functioning well in terms of this subject. I am not good in events, people, biographies and geographical data.


However this semester I took History 10.1, instead of Psychology which was close already during my enrollment. 


I felt so sorry for my History class because I've been a mediocre since the semester had started. I am a sleepyhead in this class. Nevertheless, Mr. Mark Anthony Ngo, made History interesting for me and it was not boring.  I like the way he teaches us. He was not dependent to one source. He's not a bookish type of teacher. He always throws and gives mind bugling questions to his students. Wherein I personally encourages to be a critical thinker and understanding the relevance of it in our context today.


Everything in History is important. The what, when, where and who are typical discussion in this subjects since high school. Yet Mr. Ngo lead us in also paying attention to the "How" and "Why" of the series of events in the history. That we may understand fully, and relate it to our present generation.




I should have learned more if I do advanced reading and sleep early every night, or should I say get enough rest, so that I will not feel sleepy in his class. Now, I am more encouraged to read more books, especially the BIBLE, which has more historical events that could be very relevant today.to be updated in National  and International News through watching television, listening to radio and reading newspaper (this one is expensive for me).


He once quoted, "History repeats itself." Every Second is a history. What you make, do, think, say and live out is will contribute to your history as human. It will be your legacy for the next generation. I am now conscious of the how and why of events.




Shout-Out
HIS story encourages me to study history.
History challenges and helps me to e critical in His story and share it to others through blogging and by being nurtured of His word.

Oh my it's CropSci!

"Crop Science...? Oh my... basok2x, tanum2x jud mo ana ai...!"

The very first time I hear the word Crop Science, I think about going to field for plowing, planting and familiarizing yourself in the scientific names of each crops and other agricultural raw materials.

However, it's beyond taht. Crop Science is a systematic  way of studying and applying it in or daily basis of living, especially in Crop Production.

LABORATORY

Every Monday Morning we have a Crop Sci Lab Class at Manresa Farm. We meet once a week only and have a lot of activities to do. I've learned to have hard work in one of our field work and understanding the farmers condition in toiling the land. I was taught by that experience also to be critical in analyzing the seeds using the software that neurologists used. then to be practical in applying the methods or strategies in farming,  we learned as a class. However I should have learned more of the analysis part using the software if I had a laptop to practice on.

Mr. Dennis Apuan, our professor had presented to me the value of the class to our course-Development Communication. Where we will be the said responsible in putting these agricultural analysis in publication or broadcasting, for further help or supplement for the farmers and any agricultural sectors. To be the hand and mouth of the Agriculturists and scientists.

LECTURE

Our ever blooming professor, Mrs. Mary Jean Apuan helps us in discussing the science side in Crop Production. I have learned in class about the basics of Crop Production, classification and it's functions. Yet, I should have learned more if she can make her voice louder and clearer. However, right now I am planning to review my notes and start doing pocket farming. 

The final output of these class was to observe the Salu-Tabu in our Capitol. That day, I appreciate all the things we discussed in a four walled classroom.

They may have lapses, as all of us do, they make me understand now why Development Communication is in the College of Agriculture.

Chocolate

I am an addict of Chocolate, I 

Yet another chocolate day, made me feel so odd.

Yesterday, I woke up early around 5:55 am.  For my sister Sharrah and Cousin Errell rushed towards school and the rain was pouring so hard. So hard that made the river so high. Later that river beside my auntie's house in Phase II Scions, Canito-an, was overflowed and flooded the whole community. It was my first time to witness how the water rises vastly. We need to pack up our things immediately, put the appliances in a high places as  possible (hoping that the water can't reach them)  and evacuated the area. Crossing the flooded streets with water in a knee level, freaked me. I can't believe it. The river was so wild with its color brown that somehow reminds me of the chocolate I left in the refrigerator. 

We stayed for awhile in the mother in law of my auntie Ellen. The water has not yet reach them. Yet in just 5 minutes we had received a news from a neighbor that the water was already a waist level high, then the water had started to rise and reach Lola Mars  house (Mother in law of my auntie Ellen). That pushed us to evacuate again the area. My mother Jessie and Auntie Ellen (yet I call her also a mama), requested me to go to Carmen and bring the clothes we packed up in Carmen (my Lola Esing's house where mama Jessie, my sis and I lived also).

I met also my classmates for the payments of the theater tickets, Magazine in our DC84 and Marketing Reports for our 2major production in Devcomm. Unfortunately, "hindi sila sumipot". So I need to go back in Canito-an to bring food for my Mom and Auntie. For they haven't receive any relief goods from the government.

After the flood had subsided, we cleaned the whole house. We use the Dipper, Pail, dust pan, brooms and foams to take take out of the water and rid off the mud. My auntie Ellen, her husband Uncle Jerry, my mother Jessie and me, had a general cleaning "limas". It was so tiring. so we had a break for a while, have some coffee and eat the bread that my lola had bought for them. I look for the chocolate and eat some of eat.

This time, every time I see a chocolate I am reminded of how odd was the experience I had in the flood in Canito-an.
