INTRAMURALS 2023

     Intramurals is an event that brings people from every aspect of life together to participate in various sporting activities. It is a place where people can show off their abilities, compete with others, and have fun. It is also critical to highlight the value of fair play, teamwork, and sportsmanship during the event so that everyone has a memorable experience that they will cherish.

     I participated in volleyball, basketball, badminton, table tennis and larong pinoy (labo-labo and bato lata), among other sports and activities. I won the majority of my games though I did lose a few, overall, I had a great time. I've played volleyball, basketball, and table tennis before; the other games were my first experiences. However, the play I participated in during this intramurals was the best. My favorite part/the highlight of playing intramurals was how my teammates and I worked together with full teamwork and communication. I was quite proud of and happy that we won since I didn't anticipate the effort that my teammates and I put out to do our absolute best during the sport we played. The dance palabas was also a thrilling moment for me and us, the gold team especially when we were short on time with the practice. We were able to manage to perform a good performance even though we had so many last-minute practices. 

      Intramurals 2023 is perhaps the best thing that I've experienced. During those times, I made plenty of friendships and memories that allowed me to live life to the fullest. I developed more sportsmanship throughout the games and so many more achievements that I've received. I would do anything to turn back to those times and will cherish them forever.

Vintage, these things are old fashion stuff and an old collection that was collected in the past than can still be used nowadays or not.

Paintings and figurines

                 These are called an art and where everything of it always have its deep meaning. Some maybe isn’t that old but still its an enduring interest and can be collected.

Cameras

               Camera is where we could capture the moments by taking a photo or video. These are old cameras some still working some don't anymore. People still use and keep these kinds of camera to have the vintage aesthetic look on the camera and to the cameras that aren’t working mostly people keep them as a collection

Telephone

                  This is a telephone that was used in the 60s. This was used to call people since cellphones didn’t exist that time. They are more telephones that are is still used these days on hotels, office, etc. but these kind of telephones don't really exist anymore or this generation don't use.

Flat iron

             This is used to iron clothes back then by putting hot charcoal inside it. Though nowadays people use electric iron some people does still use this. 

Old coins and bills

                   These are some old coins and bills from the Philippines back in the 50s - 90s. Even though these kind of money cannot be used anymore people keep them as a collection and passing it to the next few generations. 

These stuff can still be used and some that cannot be used anymore can still be kept as a collection or selling them to collectors or displaying like in a museum. 

Mystic of Campo: Timo, GUARDIAN of the PUTAT

Mystic of Campo: Timo, GUARDIAN of the PUTAT 

Author by: Jeanille Cogtas 

The loving father

              It is about a father who came across a Putat. When his carabao bump in to the putat he met Atong, an engkanto who gave the father an offer to make up the damages the carabao made. He had a choice whether to give away his daughter to Atong or something bad will happen to him. The father ended up fighting Atong instead of giving his daughter, he showed how much he loves his daughter.

 
              In the story there are some local color such as putat can be considered as object, collective of verdant trees that surrounds a very pond-like body of water from Pinamungajan. Putat is an engkanto’s home which is believed that no human should tamper with. The next one can be identified as social customs. “Tabi! Tabi!”, it is a filipino expression that when passing through a spirit and by tabi tabi it means excuse me or may I pass. It can be identified as social customs and dialect. Engkanto are mythical spirits and associated with the spirits of ancestors in the Philippines. In additional an engkanto have the ability to appear in human form. Lastly we have mannerism where the father decided to fight off Atong instead of taking away his daughter, it’s clear that he is selfless and would make a sacrifice for his daughter. That side of the father is a good personality trait and is considered as mannerism in local color.

        
            We can see that at the end of the story, Mang Timo fought Atong instead of giving his daughter away. Seeing that situation, I believe anyone or perhaps someone would do that when they love someone. In my opinion, I would also do what Mang Timo did, just so that the person we love can live freely, and that we can sacrifice for the ones we love

Seven Sundays Film Review

 

                    

SEVEN SUNDAYS
ni Victoria Margaret Lapera

                     

                     Seven Sundays directed by Cathy Garcia-Molina, ito ay isang pelikulang comedy-drama galing sa Philipinas. Itong pelikulang ito ay ipinalabas noong Oktubre 11, 2017. Ang kwento ay tungkol sa isang pamilya na hindi nagkakaisa at nag uugnayan kaya’t ang relasyon sa kanilang pamilya ay magulo.

 
                      Mula nang mamatay ang kanilang ina, lahat ng kanilang mga anak ay naghiwalay na ng landas. Isang araw nagpa-check up ang ama at na-diagnose na may lung cancer. Nang malaman ng mga anak ang nangyari, inaasahan na ang ama ay walang sapat na oras upang mabuhay at maaaring mamatay sa lalong madaling panahon. Isang bagay lang ang ipinahayag at hiniling ng ama bago siya umalis at iyon ay ang muling pagsasama-sama ng lahat sa pamilya. Sa sandaling nagtipun-tipon ang lahat sa isang lugar, naisip ng ama na lahat ay magccatch up at mag bond, ngunit sa kasamaang palad ang lahat ay nag-aalala at nag-aaway sa sitwasyon ng lung cancer. Araw-araw simula nang magkabalikan ang pamilya, patuloy silang nagkakaroon ng hindi pagkakaunawaan at maling komunikasyon pero mostly tumatambay pa rin parang mga bata. Lumipas ang mga araw, nakatanggap ang ama ng tawag sa telepono mula sa doktor na nagsasabi ng maling impormasyon tungkol sa lung cancer at wala talagang masamang karamdaman ang ama. Hindi sinabi ng ama sa kanyang mga anak ang sitwasyon dahil alam niyang aalis na naman ang lahat kapag nalaman nila. Too bad nalaman din naman dahil nun mas lumala ang away, hindi pagkakaunawaan at miscommunications ngunit lahat ay nagkakaisa at naguugnayan sa huli.

 

                    Seeing their situation and story, its very complicated and frustrating. Sa tingin ko ito ay dahil mayroon silang kakulangan ng komunikasyon at selos kaya't patuloy silang nagkakaroon ng hindi pagkakaunawaan. Natutunan ko na kailangan nating laging makipag-usap sa ating mga mahal sa buhay o sa ibang tao para maiwasan ang hindi pagkakaunawaan at away. 

                     Inirerekomenda ko talaga to sa mga tao at pamilya na panoorin ang pelikulang ito dahil ito ay isang magandang pelikula na panoorin lalo na ito ay isang napakagandang kuwento. Ang panonood nito ay maaaring matuto ng isang bagay o dalawa at ang mga manonood ay maaaring magkaroon ng mindset na palaging makipag-usap sa pamilya.

 

 

 

 

Personal Essay

 Life in the midst of a pandemic

Coronavirus, as was detected in late 2019 originated in Wuhan, China. At first, it was considered an isolated case since it only hit a certain city in China. But as weeks went by, the virus spread vigorously to entire China, then throughout the world. First-quarter of 2020 COVID-19 first case in the Philippines was detected in Manila. People including myself didn’t take the news seriously. But hearing the news on TV and the government was doing contact tracing and found symptoms of this virus among the contacts, I already find it alarming.

Scientists worldwide never stopped inventing cures and vaccines to stop the spread of the virus and thus to protect the people. True enough, months later vaccines were made for us. Covid vaccines were made accessible to each of us, to different age groups. And true enough, these vaccines really do save lives.

I could remember right after my 5th-grade 4th quarterly exam, the government raised the alert level for the entire country. Isolating everyone and letting all of us stay inside our houses to avoid contact with people during those times, we couldn’t really know for sure if a person is a virus carrier. Malls were closed, schools were empty, people put on some face masks and face shields, and streets that used to be busy and noisy were already empty and silent.

For me those days were one of the hardest, knowing all my friends and some special people won’t see each other often or possibly the thought of never seeing each other anymore. Those were the days when I felt alone but nice, being away from friends for a while, no contact with any friends didn’t really matter in the situation called “left out from friends”. Even though being in that kind of situation and my decision didn’t bother me during those days, it did bother me how the future should look like considering what is happening now in the present. The idea of growing apart from each other was a bit unforeseen. That, we weren’t ready for that. Although through those two years we created new friendships and relationships that keep us going in our lives with this new life we sort of decided in order to adapt.

Today, living in a better and new normal, and living with all the situations happening made us realize how precious our life is. How we are surviving every day -- one by one each day, how important are our family, friends, and all the people we care for and love. And how thankful through ups and downs we are here today still fighting.
