I participated in a BROADCAST JOURNALISM seminar in UP Baguio last July 5 till the next day with 40 Communication students from auf.
Susan Enriquez was one of the best speakers who were there to share their insights and experiences with the students.
Among the best participants who did not run out of questions to ask, was my former professor in UP -- Sir Jimmy Fong. He was my professor in my Broadcast Comm. subjects. I was so glad to be there, no longer as a student, but as an educator, just like Sir Fong.
Except for the signs of aging, nothing's changed with my former professor. Matanong pa rin sya at skeptic. In fact, when he first saw me, he asked me about the credibility of the organizers. He said he hasn't heard of the organizer's name before and he voluntarily told me that UP has nothing to do with the seminar. Ni-rent lang daw ng organizers ang UP audi. Of course, reading between lines, he was skeptic of the organizing committee.
But then, with strong speakers like Susan Enriquez, I was sure that his doubt faded at the end of the seminar.
Anyway, nothing feels better than being in a place that nurtured me when I was alone during college days. I really love Baguio and going back there even for only two days is like reason enough for me to become stronger and more prepared to face all the challenges I am facing in school and even at home. At least, nakapag-relax din kahit ilang saglit lang. Masarap din pala kapag walang computer -- sa hotel -- at least, I had a reason not to check mail or to check my writing account.
