Since my summer is full of homework, and stuffs from school, my brain is all dried up. A feeling of being played with the south and west wind.

School days are too far gone in this summer season. Now I got a literally dry summer. Except from the fact that I get to see my damn cracking friends everyday, but i'm almost snapped out. I know, it's a usual thing for a student, and I must enjoy it.


So, does it mean that summer is my greatest frequency of moodswings? Aside from the weather, some people which I can't seem to reach out is one reason why I got on-board with the mood to capture out anything based from my instincts and current emotion. A photo of three dried leaves along the road left lying by the rustling wind.

This photo got so many emotions, that's why I decided to mark the word, Season, because season is just like the feelings of a person. Not all the time we are happy, not all the time we are in vain. Nevertheless, let us all remember that life is too short, so let's celebrate every moment of it, even though it's a sad moment or at the peek of your happiness. Cheers to life!

March 28,2009 is a day that would once again mark the history, in which people unite for one goal: to temporarily cut off the electricity and turn off all the lights to reduce the negative effect on Earth.

This time, it's our turn to participate. All the Generals would be actively supporting this special event. The local government of General Santos City is participating for the first time with the response and initiative of Mayor Pedro B. Acharon in the invitation to join and support this move.

World's largest mass participation: One billion people, 1000 cities will join force to help save the earth by sending out impulses to UN and help reduce and contain the Greenhouse gas which continuously damage the earth.


The country's participation was initiated by WWF and Department of Energy, getting the attention of almost all Filipinos nationwide.

As an active General who is willing to take the chance out of it, I'm calling out people of SOCCSKSARGEN to take action and responsibility in a once beautiful earth.

This is a movement for us to prove that we still care about our planet, we all strive for a better earth, and most of all, there's still a hope to build a better tomorrow.

Our first backyard cathecism for our R.E. Integration took place somewhere in the City's largest barangay, Puting Bato to be specific. The place has streets merely an inch to be fitted to walk in,while vast number of families striving to live under one block.

It was already quarter to nine when our team arrived at the teaching area, at first, you'd probably ask where else would you properly teach the children. We didn't expect that huge number of children would attend, while re-checking our available and limited resources, particularly food, and name tags, but we nevermind the circumstances, instead we encourage everyone to attend.

The session ended after 2 hours, where children joyfully participated the activities, especially games. The kids' most awaited part is finally paying off, merienda foods were given, and guess what, even the least food we gave, it made them smile, they were frantic. I never thought that Biscuits, along with its complement, Orange juice, would satisfy everyone that time. Well, in retrospect, made my experience grow, the least I cold try was to help others smile.

Remember the Crocodile Hunter, Steve Irwin? Carefully grabbing the snout of the wild gator. The fat girl who stars in the musical comedy, Hairspray? Paving her way just to be on-cam. These are just few of the icons who share somethine similar, courage.

I've got to know these people on-screen which truly amazed me. While making a documentary report, Steve Irwin died after being stabbed by a stingray in his heart, but one thing is emphasized, he had the guts to do such things. The fat girl in Hairspray (I forget her name), tried her best and beat the other to be in a variety show, even if she was discouraged with the fact that she had the different size among the other.

Most people live ordinary lives.

Just occasionally you meet someone who lives beyond the average - people who dare to not just dream but actually DO. Taking a risk. Despite difficulties and challenges that would cause most to give up these individuals and their families have decided to think and live outside the box. Then there are those who would dare to think of the wellbeing and safety of others and devote themselves to this service - sometimes risking their own lives to do so.

In a world of celebrities without character, there are diamonds if you are prepared to take notice. Watch, learn from and be inspired in your own life - because a champion is made not born. So go out from the dark, take over the ray of light you see beyond.
