Kapihan sa Jollibee

      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 internship(hopefully)!
     Also, during the interview with Mr. De Leon and while I was writing my article, my body is trembling because I'm  palpitating (until now). Partially because my supervisor called to tell me I should condense my work (it makes me nervous though she said my article is already good enough, I just need to condense it). But mostly because I had coffee. They [Jollibee] served food, and of course, coffee (It's called 'Kapihan', coffee is a must!). However, I don't drink coffee and now I remember why.

   When my supervisor called again, she asked me if I am having a hard time and I admitted that I am not feeling well. She told me not to push myself, but I said that I will do my best to finish my article. (She also said that this would probably a memorable article for me.)

   Well, it's been 10 minutes since I sent her my article and she did not call anymore. I guess she's finally satisfied with the article!Tomorrow [Valentine's Day] will be the judgement day!

The Drug Rehabilitation Center Project in Irisan, Baguio City

           Euphoria or being "high" is one of the immediate effects of crystalline methamphetamine, also known as Shabu or poor man’s cocaine. Shabu is one of the most common and widely used illegal drugs in the country, according to Asia and Pacific Amphetamine-Type Stimulants Information Centre (APAIC). It would only take a few minutes or hours for a user to feel high and full of energy, depending whether he/she swallowed, inhaled or injected the crystal meth. However, a few moments of heightened energy and happiness would eventually take its toll. In the long run, a shabu user would experience insomnia, anxiety, weight loss, hallucination, psychosis, violent behavior, kidney damage, and inflammation of the lining of the heart that might eventually result in death. The long-term effects of drug abuse are alarming not only for the users, but also for their family.   Source: The Sara Bellum Blog An edited effects on how drugs affect an individual's health

Phase1: Patience is a virtue

           I was asked to cover the Adivay festival specifically, the horses and cowboys parade.            I have no idea what time the event will start, so I decided to come early to avoid the traffic, and to not miss the parade. Since there was no traffic, I arrived in Benguet Sports Complex at 8:20A.M. The parade haven't started yet and I thought I should visit the booths. Booths of the thirteen municipalities of Benguet showcasing and selling their products to visitors. The landscapes in front of the  booths are the entry of each municipalities for the best landscape contest.           Each 13 municipalities have their own booths showcasing their products. I was amazed with the beautiful landscapes and creative booths. I wanted to try their delicacies, but I didn't brought money with me. Here are some photos of the booths and  landscapes:           An hour passed and the still no parade. I visited the stalls selling snacks and woodcarvin

un-LAKE-ly view of Burnham Park

I would just like to share these pictures of the Burnham Lake minus the water.  Instead of boats, I found backhoe in the middle of the famous Burnham Lake. Instead of tourists admiring the cold weather, I saw workers busy clearing the man-made lake.      The clearing project of the Burnham aims to fix the flaws of the lake that was built during the American regime in the Philippines.     The boats were placed outside the lake, and was replaced with backhoes.     After draining the lake, tilapia, wallets, and cellphones were found at the bottom of the lake. The tilapia were given to the bystanders. Tourists and residents watch as workers clear the now muddy Burnham lake with backhoes.    The empty Burnham lake is expected to be refilled with water by January 25, in time for the Panagbenga Festival in February.
