F,E,B,S-colloquium

The topic of our colloquium last Tuesday, March 20, 2007, was about Fashion, Entertainment and Business.

The colloquium was quite entertaining maybe because of the first speakers who were Pong and Say, 4th year masscom students, they delivered their speech informally. Their speeches were sensible enough and they kept on making funny things. They were entertaining because their topic was quite interesting. Say even gave us some tips on what to wear during summer because summer is near.

The second speaker was Tim of 2nd year masscom. He talked about his experience as an entertainer. Tim was a performer. He played guitars in their band. He even played a guitar during the colloquium.

The next speakers were the 2 businessmen. I forgot their names. During their time, it was serious and a bit formal because their topic was all about business.

The last speaker was Mam Roxy, PE teacher in AUF. Her speech was all about sports and exercise. She also mentioned about her experiences as a volleyball player. She even talked about the exercises that were best for reducing weight. Everybody in the class participated well because of that exercise because almost everyone wanted to reduce
weight, specially me..

Medical Technology-Colloquium



I’ve learned so much from the guest speaker we had, who was a medical technologist. I didn’t expect to enjoy her speech because all I know was that, her topic which was about medicines was boring. During that time, I’ve learned some terminologies that I didn’t understand before but unfortunately, I forget them. I find the speaker well-prepared and she knew what she was telling us. She even has her PowerPoint presentation.

I’ve learned that it’s difficult to be a medical technologist because you are exposed with so many diseases in the hospital. It was not easy to find out a person’s illness. The class enjoyed the whole speech of the speaker because everyone can relate to the topic because its topic is more of health conditions and we are all concern about our health.

I could see that the speaker was nervous because maybe it was her first time to be a guest speaker. Though she was nervous, she delivered her talk properly and informatively. My classmates were able to participate well.

P,E,L-colloquium


The first colloquium was about education, literature and philosophy. I enjoyed the colloquium because I was laughing all the time because of my seatmate, GEAN NAZER “pogi” MENDOZA. Gean kept on making fun of things.

The first speaker was Sir Jay. I find Sir Jay an intelligent teacher because he was able to answer the questions of my classmates. He talked about philosophy. I find his speech quite boring maybe because of the topic but it was informative.

The second speaker was Mrs. Luna who was a former teacher in AUF and a mother of our classmate, Mae Luna. Her topic was all about education. Education was a very important matter in this world. It’s difficult to survive if you’re not being educated by any credible person in this earth. Education started at home.

The last topic was all about literature which I find it boring too though I love reading poems.

It’s really hard to be a speaker because it’s not easy to get the attention of the audiences specially students. Students tend to get bored easily. I suggest that if you will be a guest speaker someday, you should prepare for an attention-getter and speak lively,

CYNTHIA



She’s the mother of the five children. A mother that keeps on trying to give everything that she could, just to give her children the best in life. A lady who seems to be the fountain of joy and the architecture of happiness in our family. A woman who serves and loves her husband with all her life. A woman who has the power to make me cry, laugh, sad and be inspired. She has the power to make me feel secure and protected from any harm in this world. Most of all, the woman who keeps on loving me unconditionally and gives me strength to keep on moving through the journey of my life. She’s non other than, Cynthia Pangan, the most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen from inside and out.

p,m,b-colloquium


Politics is not an easy thing. Politics is one of the crucial professions for me because it’s not easy to handle a country and the people. Politicians have the chance to die early. There is a big responsibility if people are into politics. Sometimes, I’m wondering why people kept on committing their selves in politics. I don’t think that all politicians have a good intention in serving the Filipinos. At present, only few people are willing to serve our country with all their heart. Corruption is in, and I guess, that’s the big problem with some of our politicians. Their main concern is for their own good and not for the people.
I’m so proud of Hon. Jay Sangil, Councilor in Angeles City, because his main concern is the welfare of the Kapampangan. One of my classmates asked that why he is running for councilor again. He answered that he is just a simple person. His main concern is to serve the people in Angeles City, which I think is true. If he really wants to serve the people, positions are not that important.

I believe that our country is still resourceful because many foreigners are here investing and having their business. Despite of the problems of our country, foreigners still choose to have their business here because people are accommodating and our country is rich in agricultural resources.

I’m so proud of the policemen and women because despite of the danger they could face, they’re still there hanging on. They could die anytime and anywhere. Sometimes do not see their worth. What other people see is the negative things about them. Being a police is never an easy thing and having a profession as such simple means, bravery.

I’ve learned that it’s really hard to invite guest speakers.

this is my opinion
It's not easy to publish an article that is against the administration.
Most of the time, Campus Journalism in our shool deprives the writers to express themselves freely because they are under the administration of our school.
I think that's unfair. Not because we are under the administration, we cannot write what's happening in our school, the real situation in our school.
My ideas about campus journalism are the writers of the school, issues in the campus, happenings inside the school and the articles or papers being published.
Administration should let the writers or the students say what's on their mind in order for us to have a clean and good environment and for us to have a good relationship. The writers should write in a manner of respect and with responsibility.
I believe that campus journalism exists in our school. If there is no campus journalism, what do you call those college and university papers that were being published?

e2007

Election 2007
It was my first time to attend a proclamation rally of the well-known politicians in our country. the proclamation rally was held at the Convention Center in San Fernando, Pampanga on February 20,2007.
we are required to attend the proclamation rally of the "TEAM UNITY" at San Fernando, Pampanga because our teacher in Communication 7 asked us to do a stand up reporting on the said event. Our call time was 10 am because our teacher has to orient and inform us on what to do.
Our teacher asked us to prepare at least 3 sets of questions for the senatorial candidates and another 3 sets of questions for the audience.
We left the school at around 1 pm. Supposedly, the proclamation rally will be held at Expo Filipino, Clark Field, Pampanga but for some reasons, it was moved in San fernando. we used the school in going to the said place. the bus made me feel dizzy that's why I was not comfortable with it. It was even hot because we were all wearing a semi-formal clothes. I was not feeling well during that time.
As we arrived at teh Convention Center, the place was too crowded. The people were all try6ing to enter at the Convention Center maybe because they just want to see the popular people from our place. The atmosphere was not that good. Some of the teachers in AUF (Angeles University Foundation) not to go or enter the Convention Center because we might get hurt or something bad might happened on the place. Our teacher in Comm. 7 still decide to go in but not to have our stand report but instead, to witness and observe the event and the people who were there.
As I entered the lobby of the Convention Center, I saw some officials giving some boxes to the people who were there. I wonder what were those boxes for and what weer inside of the boxes that made the people pushed each other and kept entering the Convention Center despite of the hotness and crowd.
The people were shouting as I entered the Convention Center proper. It was Cesar Montano, one of the senatorial candidates in the TEAM UNITY, who was delivering his speech. Iwas not listening with his speech, Iwas just observing other people who were there. I saw some people who were jusy chatting with their seatmates, some were clapping their hands while the speaker was delivering his speech, some were just looking around and some were listening. I noticed that the politicians has their own jingle like for example, Zubiri's jingle was "Boomtaratarat". The politicians were using popular songs songs for them to be easily remembered.
I observed that among the senatorial candidates present on the said event, Cesar Montano has the biggest number of fans. Cesar has received the loudest yell among the audience. I realized that Cesar has a big possibility to win on the 2007 election because he was popular.
We stayed in the convention center for about 2 hours or less because one of tmy classmates got dizzy and she can't handle it anymore. As we went out of the convention center, I felt again the heat of the sun and I smelled the not so good odor of the people who were pushing each other. It was the most tiring day I had for this semester. On our way to the bus, we stopped over a store to have something to drink because the bus was far from the convention center and we had to walk under the extreme heat of the sun.

It was a good experience to attend such kind of event because as a mass communication student, we had to be exposed in such kind of crowd and such kind of environment. It was also bad for us, students, because accidents might occur on that place and our teacher might not attend all of us at the same time.

Fortunately, nothing bad happened with us and in the said event. Everything was turned out fine despite of the crowd.

Am I really asking too much?


Why is it hard for them to understand me? I don’t see anything wrong about what I’m doing. All I wanted to do is to teach them to stand on their own. I don’t like to see them depending on others because not all the time, people are around and always available for them. I’m not turning my back on them, I’m just thinking about their future. What if I’m gone?

You might think that I’m a big-headed person because I’m the only person that you can count on. I never thought of that in my entire life, hope you know that. If you only knew, I’m always thinking about you, all the time! Am I just pretending that I’m a responsible daughter and a sister? Sometimes I feel like I’m just nothing in this world. I hope someday, I could feel my worth. I hope that you appreciate the little things I do for you.

Why am I too emotional about this, maybe because I was hurt. All I’m asking is to understand me. Maybe you’ll never understand me because you really don’t know what’s inside me. You really don’t know what’s on my mind. You really don’t know what’s happening in school. You don’t know the pressure I have in school. I know you’re tired too but I think I’m more tired than what you think.

Sometimes I want to fight back but I just can’t because I don’t want an argument. I don’t want you to get hurt. I don’t want to fight you back simply because I love you. You’re my world dude.. hehe

I’m hoping that my wounds are gone tomorrow, so that I can work properly. I hate this feeling! My head aches and my heart too. Come on! Now tell me, am I really asking too much? I hope not.

I’m the 2nd eldest among the five children. My elder sister has her own job and family. My elder sister and her son are living with us. My parents are working too and my nephew is being taken care of by the maid during the week days. The jobs of the maid are to clean the house, wash the clothes, look after my nephew and feed him. I’m the one who’s responsible for his bath, vitamins and many more. Most of the time his with me and sometimes I feel like I’m his mother.

My nephew is sleeping with my parents. Everytime my parents go to work, they ask me to sleep beside my nephew. Around 10 am, I have to bathe him because I have my class at 12 noon. I’m also responsible in cleaning him up before sleeping at night and in brushing his teeth. I’m also responsible with the assignment of my twin brothers. Before dinner, I see to it that their assignments are done and checked if their answers are correct.

Of course I do have responsibility with my studies and self too. I have to do my assignments, projects, reporting and so many requirements. These requirements of mine are not that easy. Sometimes it will take me a 2-3 sleepless nights before finishing it. Though it’s difficult, I’m still enjoying my studies. I also see to it that I have time with my friends though sometimes I don’t go with them because I have something to do at home.

My parents are only asking us to finish our studies, that’s why I’m striving hard to finish my studies and see them happy. My elder sister didn’t finish her study that’s why my parents are looking forward on me. I want to see my parents happy and I don’t want to disappoint them. The biggest fear in my life is to disappoint my parents and see them crying because of me. I love my parents more than myself.


I love it when my family asks help from me. Everytime they ask help from me, I feel like I have the purpose in our family and in the world. I’m overwhelmed everytime my family asks me to do something for them because I feel that I’m trustworthy.

How I wish time runs fast so that I can overcome all these worries that I have. I have a lot of responsibilities in our family and I have nothing against that. I love helping my family though sometimes it’s tiring. Most of the time, people say that I will not get marry because I’m so devoted with my family. Sometimes I see myself giving up with so many problems in school but I just have to fight because I have my goal. My main goal in life is to see my parents proud of me because I’m graduating and that to see them proud of their selves because after all the sufferings and hard works they did, finally, I’m graduating.

I wanted to give back to my parents the love, sufferings, care and hardships that they gave us, specially me. I’m not vocal about my feelings and I’ m not showy too. People may see me dry but deep inside I’m not. I just can’t express myself. I don’t like my family to see me crying, hurt, giving up, worried, unhappy because I don’t like to see them worried about me.

I’m just an ordinary person living in an ordinary world. I often cry all by myself because of so many problems. I have problems that people wouldn’t know. I have problems that my family & friends do not know. They may see me laughing at all times, cheering up other people but deep within me, there’s something wrong. Anyway, I can handle myself. I’m not saying that I don’t need them it’s just that I’m used to it. I’m used to solve my own problems. I’m used to keep my problems only to myself.

I love my family. They give me strength and courage to go own with my life. They are my inspiration. Everything I do is all for them. üüü

The best VJ Hunt ever produced!






I didn't expect that our production would be as an extravagant as it was. All I know was that,, we, the ABMC 3 and other SAMASKOM officers, gave our best and we did everything just to make that production successful.

I'm so proud of MARIANE CRUZ. She designed the stage and even the posters. it was her idea that's why we came up with that kind of stage ang all other stuffs like the trophy, the vtr and etc. She worked very hard in preparing for the props that were needed for the set.

Mariane Cruz wouldn't finished all the work without our help, ABMC 3. We worked hand in hand just to prove that we can make it even without the help of mmc. Honestly, we were asking help from the mmc but unfortunately, they did not help us. It was tiring but we enjoyed doing the work because we supported each other and I realized that no matter how hard a project/work is, as long as your groupmates work hand in hand and has unity, you will always come up with a good job.

I'm also proud of GEAN MENDOZA. He worked very hard in organizing such kind of production. He often absent himself in our class just to settle things regarding the VJ HUnt. His work was not that easy, he visited almost all schools in Angeles City just to ask them to join the competition. He did a great job.

" To Gean and to all Abmc 3 and SAMASKOM officers, Congratulations, you did a great job, that's the best VJ hunt ever produced at AUF, I'm so proud of you, that would be your midterm exam in comm 7, you all deserve 100% unless gean gives a seperateevaluation" - Mam Virgie's Message to us.

online to print



If you will compare PDI online newspaper from PDI printed newspaper, there is also a big difference. With the printed, photos and advertisements has a bigger space unlike with online.
I could say that online is cluttered but with the printed, somehow it’s organized. The printed is organized in a way that the title of the news is being accompanied with article itself. No need to click or browse everything. Good thing about online is that, though cluttered, articles are not cut. You can read the whole article in one page unlike the printed; you have to look for the page of
the other half of the story.


I could say that online newspaper is more accessible than with the print. Everybody is
into internet. There is no need for us to buy a copy, just visit the web and there you will find the news. I also prefer the online one because it is more updated. It also provides an instant access or conversation about important matters in a community. Like for example, if you want to know what’s happening in pampanga, just visit the website of sunstar pampanga. No need for you to buy the newspaper. Though you’re not in pampanga, you are still being updated on what’s happening there specially if you have relatives there. As a mass communication student, P 20.00 is too much. And not all the time we can watch the news on television because of many works in school.

That's what i think..




I have nothing against the Arroyo Administration and most of all, I have nothing to do against the First Gentleman, Mike Arroyo. As a citizen of this country, Philippines, I only say what I observe.

I believe that gossips are 90% true. People would not make fun of you if the issue is not true. First Gentleman Mike Arroyo is now on hot seat again. He's always involved in a corruption issue.

I believe that he's a corruptman. I can't see any support from him in building up our country. he's always out of the country. I don't know what is his business there but all I could say is that, He has a very fortunate life. He has no worries in life because he has all the MONEY.

No one would dare to invent an issue against Mike Arroyo. He's the husband of our very own president and no one, I guess, would dare to tell a lie against him. If in that case, maybe the accusations against him is true. Everytime there is a corruption issue in our country, Mike Arroyo is always present.



How can the government fight the corruption in this country if the First Gentleman is the head of it? As far as I know, the accusation against him is true. Sen. Ping Lacson even cited some proof of evidences just to prove the country that Mike Arroyo is a corruptman.

Everytime issues against Mike arroyo arise he's always out of the country. maybe he's escaping from the media. He's trying to hide from the people.

People revealing the truth are just concern in our society and that they want to stop the anomalies that's happening in our country. I'm not saying that Mike Arroyo is a truly corruptman but my point here is why don't leaders serve the country with all their hearts..? Nothing will be taken out from them.
