How To Make Your Christmas Meaningful?
Cebuano volunteerism as a gift this Christmas season
What is the best way to celebrate Christmas?
For some people like Ency Encinares, a volunteer deaf mute teacher, and Venerva Amil, a teacher for the Bajau community in Barangay Alaska Mambaling, Cebu City, volunteering for a cause is the best form of a gift this yuletide season.
They both define volunteerism as serving without something in return, as long as the one doing it happy with what he or she is doing doing. They also associate volunteerism as saying the truth, letting the people know that one is sincere with his or her voluntary service.
Encinares and Amil were guests during the “Pagtuki” episode last Dec. 3 when the topic was on the state of the Cebuano volunteerism. Pagtuki is the weekly radio program of the Ramon Aboitiz Foundation Inc. (RAFI) aired every Saturday morning over dyLA. Read more…

Lunas Elementary School Outreach Program
On the game, the boat is sinking
December 14, 2008- This is the 2nd day that I’m active with my charitable works of mercy and gift giving. My first for this month is with the Asilo dela Milagrosa kids (an outreach sponsored by my Alumni Association). We had our outreach program at LUNAS ELEMENTARY SCHOOL, CARCAR CEBU. Thanks to iLearn Foundation (http://ilearnfoundation.multiply.com/) for this opportunity that we were able to share our blessings to those who deserve it. It was in deed my first as well to experience doing the outreach at night! That adds excitement and we are fortunate that the mass is celebrated when we arrived. Perfect timing indeed for the local Eucharistic celebration (in bisaya version).

December 13, 2008- The Cebu Bloggers Society (CBS) Xmas Party is one of the highlights of that day! After I’m done with my charitable works at Asilo dela Milagrosa with my SPUD (Paulinian) Family, I rushed ahead to McDo in JY to meet the CBS group who waited there. While waiting for others to come, I sponsored to buy a box of cake roll from Red Ribbon. Shortly after everyone arrived, we rode on a jeep which we persuasively conquered the seats to bring us to EvanJhnn Mendoza’s residence at Jardin de Busay! What a lovely place to relax and chill.

SIAM and Shopping
November 17, 2008- I wasn’t able to join the prevalent mall-wide sale of Ayala’s Shoptatistic. So I spent much of my cash for being to lazy passed 3 days! Argggh… But I don’t care! I seem to have time for myself. Narcistic bond to my soul. I used to be alone when I dine, shop, and bitching sometimes. What I’ve got?
