      It is not part of my internship routine to attend 'Kapihan sa Baguio' since I am assigned in the Benguet Beat. However, my supervisor asked me to attend the said event today so I could gather more information about the article I am writing. from: http://stella-arnaldo.blogspot.com/2009/02/jollibee-invades-new-york.html     The topic of Kapihan sa Baguio is the on-going celebration of Panagbenga in Baguio. Of course, the flowers used in the festivity came from Benguet (which is my beat), and I am writing a feature article about flowers for Valentine's Day. And that is how I ended up in Jollibee Legarda right after my class.      The event went well and I was able to gather information through an interview with Mr. Anthony De Leon, co-chairman of the Executive Committee of Panagbenga 2013.     However, this coverage is different from my past coverage. If my article gets published and  the one I have together with my supervisor, I am finally done with my inter

     I've been having trouble with my schedule as I find myself with tons of school works lately. Time Management is something I'm still trying to figure out. Needless to say, I neither attended the Provincial Board Meeting nor the Municipal Council  Meeting. However, I still went to La Trinidad to interview some flower vendors for three purpose: For my BC 105 Field Reporting Class Business Beat -since Valentine's Day is just around the corner, customers are expected to flock flower shops For my Journ 107: Community Newspaper - Flower industry is quite popular in Benguet.  For my Journ 198 Internship - as I mentioned in my previous blog, I was assigned to write a feature article for Valentines, and the topic my supervisor gave me is, of course, FLOWERS! Even though I have quite a lot of work to do, I was able to find a way to finish three of them in one shot! 3-in-1 FLOWER POWER! ^_-

   I've been busy with academic works that I wasn't able to attend the Provincial Board Meeting again. However, I went to the Capitol to gather information about the feature story I was working, but the officer said that I could get the information I want at the Municipal Hall. I went to the Municipal Hall, but the desk officer said that the office of the Municipal Agriculturist is located at the market. It was already quarter to two so I decided to talk to the agriculturist next time, and attend the Council Meeting for now.     I attended the Council meeting, however, they did not discuss the issues in the agenda. I told my supervisor that I would interview Coun. Awingan about the sisterhood relations of La Trinidad and Balbalan that she was working on, and she said okay.    Before the meeting ended, I was surprised when the wall started shaking. It was an earthquake! It was a short, but strong earthquake. Good thing, nothing bad happened.     I interviewed Councilor Aw

   I wasn't able to attend the Provincial Board Meeting last Monday due to academic reasons. Nevertheless, I went to the municipal hall in the afternoon to attend the Municipal Council Meeting. My supervisor, Ma'am Malen assigned the stories I need to write. She also gave me an assignment to write a feature for Valentine's Day. Red fresh strawberries in Strawberry Farm.     I was supposed to write a story about the proposed ordinance giving incentives to volunteers in La Trinidad, and about the preparation for the Strawberry Festival. However, the executive committee of the Strawberry Festival was not able to provide me information for the meantime.   I interviewed Councilor Awingan about the proposed ordinance that he sponsored together with Coun. Kipas. He asked if I can understand Ilokano and I said no. He jokingly said that he would have difficulty answering my questions. I also interviewed Councilor Shontogan about the illegal funeral parlor in Shilan . Ka
