2011 My Year of Celebration and preparation :D

Great things really comes in small packages. As my contract ended las May, I planned my stay will be short, expected four (4) months long including the paperworks. Unfortunately it will not happen. As I forecast it, will be longer and I might have my 29 birthday and my 28th Christmas here in the country. Good for me but things might change.

C.S.Q.C. @ 10 - The TIN Anniversary



For this year it will be our 10th Anniversary of our Batch from C.S.Q.C. I made a slogan, a personal one that would encourage us Claretian for what we have done in the past years.

"Commemorating and Reminiscing of Our Achievements and Triumphs of a Claretian Life. Leading the Way, Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow"

The objective is to remind, recall, recollect and reflect of the blessings we have achieved and what we have have done. These are the impressions that saint Anthony Maria Claret would like to have to its students.

At first I was not thinking of a reunion to get organize. Yes it has been ten years. For me it is still young, some are immature, some are not yet ripe. The Fifteen to Twenty will be at its the best. My experience working with QHS Batch 76 gave me idea how a batch reunion to be handled:

1. Do not work alone work as a group and teams. (the more the merrier)
2. Batch officers not good! Core group pulls the batch.
3. Do not form in section (sectioning is for data gathering only) but working through make it as a batch. Sectioning will only bring back bad impression and put a person out of place.
4. Plan ahead very well and expect the pasaways and the unexpected.
5. Don't think forming the batch will form an batch alliance or batch partnership of something. It is just a get-together stuff. But a great way to see individual potential resources.
5. Share the good stuff and not the issues...
6. Use the surrounding resources
7. Start in small meeting / reunion. For those who are out of the Philippines area of responsibility try forming your small meeting and update your fellow batchmate on on-line video conference or group websites.

This seven guides should help handling a batch reunion hope you could find it useful for me I'm just about to use it.

LINUX @ 20


"Collecting data is the first step towards wisdom, but sharing data is the first step towards community."

This year also, Linux (my favorite Operating System) just turned Twenty. I have been using linux for eight years. My first use it was just getting use on its GUI and navigations. Then the application substitute. As of now a worry free operating system with some cool stuff I have installed with my Linux machine. Its a good thing that I might soon share Linux to others.

Also this year the most important, my board exam >>> got to go aral muna me...
