The Week That Was

We had a one week celebration of our 65th Founding Anniversary last week,that's the reason why I wasn't able to update my blog again. We had a series of activities like Fun Run, Trade Fair, Parade, Field Demonstration, Inter-School Academic and Cultural Competition, Dance Concert, Coronation Night to name a few. By the way,some artists from ASAP also came to join us on the 4th day but I wasn't able to enjoy the show that much kase nga di ba malabo mata ko.haha! No wonder busy as a bee na naman ang peg ko for the past few days. 

Just to give you a glimpse of the activities and my life away from home, I'm sharing you a few photos from the previous week. This is the kind of environment where I spend my day at work.

@ the school gallery with my officemates.

 hello yellow! off to the Coronation Night venue in a bit.

So there, I'd love to share more photos pa sana pero baka maumay na kayo sa fez ko.haha! I'm excited to blog about Christmas, about our Project "Zhay" and some unfinished posts in my drafts from the previous happenings during hubby's vacay and Xian at school. Kamusta naman,long overdue na yun.Hahaaay,goodluck to me! :P

 

LCC Goes To Vegas

I haven't been to blogger for the past few days because I've been very busy with some school-related activities like our outreach program to our school's adopted barangay and of course,our Christmas party.

Vegas is the theme for our Party last Thursday night, December 15.

Actually the first time we read the memo about it, the first thing that came into our mind about the common Vegas costume is this:

yes,showgirl kung showgirl.

But after a few minutes of searching online for some pegs,we found out that the costume for a Vegas-Themed Party is actually endless,as they say.We just chose the simple one without compromising comfort.

My officemates came in their black dress while I opted to wear a black top paired with my skinny jeans then we just wear a cute mini hat with some peacock feather details which we found at the tiangge.We also wear long fancy necklace to match our black outfit and that's it,we're all set! We just used our creativity and a little ingenuity to come up with our Vegas outfit (well,sort of!)  

Meet us!

 with my friend Kai. matched kami ng fancy necklace kase sya ang nagprovide.hehe.

I would love to share pa sana some of the photos that night,unfortunately my friend who's in-charged on our kodakan moments haven't uploaded yet the pics. But all in all, it was still a fun night. I even won a major prize in the raffle. Yey!

More of that on my upcoming posts.Clue about the prize: hindi sya plantsa at lalong hindi plato.hihi!

Time Management

It's Friday and for goodness sake it's already semestral break but the level of my busyness is still the same like on regular school days. I'm really looking forward on the upcoming long weekend and for me, that will officially start tomorrow noon.Yey! (since I still have halfday of work)

Although for today, I allotted time to visit, read and drop a comment on my daily reads from my favorite mommy bloggers. Kase love ko kayo lahat.xoxo.

Anyway,  for a quick post and to update my blog, here's something I got from one of my fb friends this morning regarding Time Management.shoot sa banga, this is what I need right now.

 

Di man tayo magkakilala but I have to thank you Becky Higgins for these useful tips! :)

If there's one thing that I learned on her note, that is to stay focus and stick on my goals. Priority is the word. Time is gold so I have to spend it wisely,and yes family will always be my TOP priority.ayt?

Happy Friday, enjoy the long weekend! :) 

TGIF!

Been busy for the past few days because of a special event in our school called Research Forum wherein our institutional researchers from different colleges in our school defend their research outputs in front of the panel/evaluators consists of VP’s, College Dean, Department Heads and Research Directors with a lot of participants in the audience including faculty, staff and chosen students in our institution. It’s quite surprising that some of these research presenters still gets nervous especially on the evaluation part regardless of their age and rank.I don't want to go exactly into the details but if there's one word to describe: nerve-wracking.

Our department organize that event every year which needs a lot of time and effort,and being one of the committee I got one of the big chunk of responsibility in terms of planning and organizing especially on the actual event. I had to extend a few hours of my working schedule just to make sure everything is smooth meaning less time for my Xian and less bonding time for us that’s why this week is kinda hard for me. This is actually one of the highlight of the school activities that's why kelangan ng sobrang preparations.

Finally,after all the efforts of everyone this year's Research Forum is over and done,not to mention it is another successful event! It’s just so ironic how I used to hate my thesis days way back in college as in feeling ko lalagnatin lagi ako not to mention a lot of editing,revisions and other research-related chorva yet this is what I’m actually doing for the past 3 years working in the academe.haha! Labo no?

It is such a relief to finally breathe a little and focus on other stuffs not as heavy as that.So literally I wanna shout:

To my two boys,hubby love and baby love I'll make it up to you! Busy day's over....for now! (I hope!) :D

Aloha, LCC!

This is another reason why I have a lot of back log posts last time (which I’m now trying to catch up), we had our 2 days employees' day in a beach a day after the school's commencement exercises. By the way, we had that event yearly as part of every employees’ R&R which every hardworking employees like us deserves, ayt? :) I've been working in a school for close to 5 years and this is one event every one of us look forward in our school calendar.

This year, the organizer’s chosen venue is in Little Bridge Resort, Taal, Batangas and the theme is Aloha. This is my second time on that resort since hubby and I have already been there 3 years ago together with our college buddies and the fact that I already knew what is in store for me, I felt like it doesn’t excite me anymore but nevertheless, everyone is expected to attend talaga.

As soon as we arrived there, what else to do kundi picture-picture! :D


Here are just some of the photos from that day:

checking the bed,hmmm pwede na!

few snapshots during the parlor game with my LCC kapamilya

a quick photo op in our Aloha costume before heading to the night's party

Although there are a very few minor glitches on the 2-days event, it was still fun and somehow relieved the stress in everyone's exhausted mind during the past few days . Hopefully next year Bora naman.haha,choosy! :D
