SPEAK TO ME IN ENGLISH?....

Una kong nakita ang salita na yan sa pin ni MAM LAXA at ng di naglaon ang meron na din ang ibang departament. Alam ko tungkol yun sa kampanya ng institusyon na gamitin ang lengwaheng INGLES bilang "medium of instruction" ika nga nila. Madami nga ang sumusunod at bawat transaksyon aminado akong ganoon na nga ang ginagawa. Naaalala ko pa minsan pumunta ako sa SPS noon para magtanong ng budget ng departamento namin, nagtatagalog ako noon at sabi sakin ni mam julie "your an SA and you should speak to me in english when transacting a business". Sosyal si mam julie sa ingles na dapat pag kakausapin siya kaya ayun wala akong nagawa kundi sumunod nalang. Kahit sa ITSO kahit dumugo na lahat ng ilong ng staff at SA kakaingles eh sige parin sa pagsunod sa proyekto.

Noong una aminado ako na di ako ganun kaseryoso sa pagtulong sa proyektong ito. Kaya nga pagkatapos ko sa duty eh nagtatagalog ako. Di din kasi ako ganun kainterisado kasi madami paring estudyante ang di sumusunod. Oo alam ko siya at nakikita ko ang mga naglipanang mga tarpolin sa CASAL at ARLEGUI.Required na din kaming magsalita noon pero di pa din ako sumusunod. Di din kami nag iingles ng mga tropa ko pag naguusap at nagkwekwentuhan kasi mahirap talaga. Kahit nga pag minimeeting ko sila DSG at yung ibang officers sa tagalog din.

Pero minsan pag tinotopak ako nagiingles ako. Minsan pag wala din kaming magawa at stress na sa dami ng mga proyekto, isa ito sa mga ginagawa naming libangan at kulitan pero di kami ganun kaseryoso. Kung baga biro biro lang.

Aminado akong hirap ako sa paggamit nito at pagsalita nito pero narealize ko din na oo nga bakit di ko itry. Matagal ko na din naman na gustong subukan ito eh. Bakit di ko subukan ngayon.

Nagbago ang lahat ng pananaw ko kanina tungkol dito habang nagmemeeting kaming mga DSG presidents, staff ng SPS, GUIDANCE, iba pang departmento ng paaralan at ni Maam Soliven. Pwede din palang magkwentuhan at magtawanan sa salitang ito. Aminado akong na "NOSE BLEED" ako pero nagenjoy ako at sumakit ang panga ko kakatawa. Gusto ko nga sumali sa mga aktibidad ng kampanyang ito. hehe una dahil malaki ang papremyo pero ang gusto ko talaga eh matuto akong magsalita nito ng di nahihiya at nauutal.

Di ko maiipangakong na isang daang porsyento ang maiaalay ko kasi isa akong manunulat da wikang Filipino pero susuporta ako sa magandang adhikain ng institusyon. Nakakatuwang malaman na ginagawa talaga ng institusyon ang mga bagay bagay na makakatulong sa mga estudyante upang maging matagumpay na tao balang araw.

THINK IN ENGLISH, SPEAK IN ENGLISH. Ito ang bagong proyekto ng TIP na nakikita kong lubos na makakatulong sa tulad kong estudyante ng institusyon.

Sana di ito maglalaho at sana mas mapaigting pa ang kampanyang ito. Umasa din ako at maghihintay pa sa iba pang mga proyekto ng institusyon hindi lang sa kampanyang ito kundi sa iba pang aspeto.

SIMPLE BOY...

SIMPLE BOY
BERLIM M. LIMBAUAN

It’s all started when I am 16 years old. I remember I am just a simple boy at that age, when I started to love. I have a crush on a girl named Josiebelle Cruz I met her on the examination of a institution where I am studying right now. She a simple girl. A simple girl who also aim to be a scholar. We take the same examinations, we have the same rooms in the exam and we are seated on the same row. I just remember the sign I asked GOD, it a sign when a girl gives her complete name and with no hesitation to talk to me she is the one who will I court in my college life.

After the exam, I think I didn’t passed the examinations or I just pass the exam for accountancy but it doesn’t matter because I decided to use another scholarship and take a engineering course. I took up BS Computer Engineering The first day of the class started but I don’t she her. I am asking myself about her. Is she didn’t passed the exam or she decided to study in the universities along the university belt. Time, hours, days, months and years have passed but I didn’t see a glimpse of JB (her nick name). It was almost 2 years searching her in the campus and waiting to see a glimpse of her. But I failed. It is the time I decided to search for another girl that I can give some time of my life and if possible my first girlfriend.

I remember the time when my “tropa” told me that she has a beautiful classmate and still single. I get her number to my friend and text her. She replied quickly and asked where I get her number. I said to her that my friend or “tropa” give her number whom is her classmates. We get to know each other in the text. Her name was Edlyn Capalad. She was 17 years old.

Minutes, hours and days passed and I decide to have a eyeball. As usual to some text mates that who usually has to meet after they know each other. We meet at SM Marilao where her school is near. It was lunchtime when we met. It was my first time to have a date. We ate at KFC. We are shy to each other at that time that only few things are said.

After that a few weeks later, I said to her that I will court her and if she can my girlfriend? It had been a month and a half before she decided to say “YES” to me. It was December 9, 2006 when she replied me with a “YES”. She says “YES” to me through text. It was informal that’s why I tell her that we should meet again to have a formal relationship. At the same time and the same place where we first met. She was my first girlfriend. It was one my happiest moments in my life because there’s a person who will be my companion and who will sit in me in the lonely moments of my life and also who will be the apple of my eye. Also it is a blessing from GOD that after what happened, GOD has given me the chance to see a glimpse of that simple girl. I saw JB again. But I have already committed that’s why I didn’t court her instead we became closed friends.

I remember the first time she broke my heart, she was texting me at that night and it happened that I didn’t reply to her text because I am to busy preparing the food that my family will eat. She calls me at my cell phone and arguing me. Why I didn’t text her? Why I didn’t reply? And why I ignore some of her calls. I remember it was 10 seconds before January 2007 will come when she decided that we should have a cool off and ended her long call. It hurts me a lot. Along with the countdown my tears fell down. It was the only New Year that I cry because of her. After the countdown I call her and say sorry for what I have done. She has given me a pardon and we are again.

Our 1st monthsary came. We met again and I give her my surprise gift. I thought, It will be a long relationship but It fades when she decided to broke up with me 15 days after our monthsary. Double the sadness when the month of February comes which usually the month of love and lovers. She gives me another chance but due to long distance relationship we decided to end it already and have a break.

It was a year before I came to the point that I have move on to that relationship. I said to myself that I should move on to that relationship and to seek for a new love that will last. I remember JB and I decided to court her but again I failed because she has a relationship with a marine student. How sad it is but I need to face the reality.

Now the simple boy learns a lot. He love again but failed. He started to move on but the passed didn’t letting him to move on. Right now the journey of the simple boy is still on going. He didn’t know where and when would it happen that his dreams, hopes and wishes will granted but now he’s happy. He enjoys his life to the fullest. Because he believes in this: TRUE LOVES WAIT BUT DON’T FORGET TO SEARCH IT…
