ABMC 4 Surprise

I had a make-up class at the Digital Lab with my BSN students this rainy Monday afternoon. When we were about to finish with the impromptu speeches, the lights suddenly went off after I heard a few knocks on the door. I thought there was power interruption due to heavy rains so I waited for about 5 seconds.

The next thing I remember was that a group of students wearing blue shirts entered the classroom and started singing the very famous "Happy Birthday" song. They were my ABMC 4 students. They surprised me with their greetings -- complete with a cake and purple balloons.
Well, what can I say? That's the reason I love all of them! They give meaning to my stay here. I just wish I could tell them exactly how I felt that afternoon. Nakakatuwa. Nakakatuwang isipin na naging close na rin ako sa kanila. Kaya lang, nakakalungkot isipin na pansamantala lang ang relationship ng teachers with students.

Management Lessons from GUNG HO

'I must recognize that man achieves the highest degree of efficiency when he plays.

Levels Earned, Lessons Learned in SHAIYA

The holy week was not really holy for me. This was time of the year when I played hard. Really played hard, as in trying to make the toon level every time I logged in . And to help my toon level up, even my husband and my daughter would play with her. This year, my toon is DanieGanda. Danie, for the record, is my daughter's nick name. But I thought of adding the word "Ganda," which is a tagalog term for Beauty. DanieGanda is a human priest in the normal mode. As the rule in Shaiya, a player won't be able to create a character in the hard mode [here, toons are stronger] without first reaching level 40 in the normal mode, which is a level lower than HM. When DanieGanda started, she was power leveled by king-kruller, whom DanieGanda met while my daughter was playing the toon. King_kruller was als o Danie's first friend in Shaiya. At the moment, he's already level 58, UM. The experience was good for Danie was able to meet players from different walks o...
