Preparations for the Camp

I’ve prepared the list of menu for our upcoming camp meeting fellowship this December. Hubby and daughter Ruth helped me plot the order graph in the big whiteboard detailing the families and individuals in line with the menu for listing orders from them. In this way we can calculate how many meals are we going to prepare and cook for the whole church. Our setting in the December camp will going to be a cooking for the whole camp and not per family which is a much better setup for me.

We’re doing an early preparation of our camp meeting in December including the list of ministers who will share God’s word, the activities of the youth and kids, our transportation and travel to the venue, the musical instruments that we’re going to bring and the essential things that we must bring per family for our three-day stay in Villa Dominga Forest and Resort Camp Site

My Home Office

I’m starting to sketch renovation plans I’m going to do with our living room because I’m planning to put up a mini-office after my resignation in my work. I’m going to use the office for my outsource job, my blogging and for some accounting works on my store. It’s exciting to plan everything that relates to your dreams even if I have few months more before I can finally start this. Important thing is how I can fit my home office in a perfect location in my house. Of course I would want a cozy environment where I can have the convenience of a home environment in an office. That’s a lovely idea.

Josh’ Costume Party

Josh enjoyed his costume party at school yesterday. He was telling his grandma (my mom) that it was really fun playing games with his classmates wearing different costumes. I accompanied him on this school activity and I saw that kids were really happy especially when they play Trip to Jerusalem and Group Yourselves games. Actually it’s their teachers who count and grouped them in because they seem to just wander about the circle never minding the number counting lol! Lucky I’m not their teacher because it requires a lot of patience.

Josh and his friend Carl won in the first game that they played so they’re happy enough that early in the program they have prizes already. In the succeeding games after that they just played lightly never really taking the games seriously. Josh was even asking me to pull him out of the group yourselves’ game when he saw the ice cream cart, he’s really a lover of ice cream.

It’s nice that the program lasted for only one hour after almost 30 minutes of waiting for other kids to arrive. The heat was scorching outside the school compound and I nearly fainted because I just came from sickness. Anyway as we reached our house and Josh was energetically telling his stories to granny I felt happy too. Here are some pics!

Busy Schedule

I’ve got plenty of work and school activities today so I filed a leave from work yesterday. Since I filed my resignation last May of this year and was requested to extend my stay in the office for when I still don’t know I was allowed to take a day off my whole week work to cope with my busy schedule.

I’ll accompany Josh to school for their costume party, a little bit early for the Halloween but it’s their last day today so that explains it. I have other scheduled work that need immediate attention and I also have to check on some diet pills for a friend so my leave of absence will be a lot of help for me. Also I need to rest as I’ve had colds, cough and fever last couple of days and have rested at home for one day only because I can’t file successive leave of absence at one time.

Cainta Moving Towards 2015

School activities again and that means I have to get up early on a weekend. I also need to go with Ruth to finally see how good their school’s performance was when they won in the Literacy Month Poem Reading Contest last October 3, 2008. It was a happy winning for the school and the students who performed were congratulated.

Today is Cainta’s program for their Plan Towards 2015 titled Local Government Plan to Achieve the Millenium Development Goals. As part of the program all government officials and teachers were invited to join and watched the program. Chosen schools were chosen to give a valued performance and being the champion in the poem reading the group was invited to render a repeat performance of the piece that they’ve won early this month. I sensed some pressures on the part of the trainor as teachers,district supervisor, government officials, dignitaries and Mayor Mon were there to watch them.

With practice and best efforts from the students and trainor they’ve delivered the piece clearly and with conviction. I saw Mayor and his foreigner guests smiling as they watch the children rendering ‘The Bells’ by Edgar Allan Poe’. Actually I was also smiling by myself forgetting the nervousness I’m feeling earlier. I’m always like that when one of my kids is performing lol! Here’s enclosing some pictures of them.

Vacation In Bicolandia's Farm

My sister-in-law’s mother came from the Bicol region and as such they see to it that once in a while they visit their hometown to see family, relatives and friends. They also visit the place for special family occasions and sometimes for a nice relaxing vacation. They frequent the places where they swim on rivers, pick on root crops and harvest what’s ripe among the fruits and vegetables.

For someone who grew up in the urban areas like us and the family of my brother it was a pleasurable respite from the bustling life in the urban. No traffic, no malls, no keeping up with the time and a bus ride away from internet café (that’s not so good to me). Anyway with the modern technology you can always put your mobile internet through your PC as long as it’s a 3G. But sometimes it’s a relaxing break to be free from any signs of modern technology, it’s nice to be just like the province people, happy and contented with their way of life. My niece and nephew seemed so happy in their pictures when they had their vacation there, and who would not be happy it’s really nice to be there.
