THE SILENT HELPERS: AN OPEN LETTER

"Action speaks louder than words."


That's the time Almers give us a real impact for the millennial people. Whenever they have dirt inside and outside the rooms, they are here to serve and clean the surroundings, without any hesitations. I really never doubt about them: their normal competency and their good and simple attitude. Everywhere, I always saw them watering the soil, cleaning the floors, spending time with other people to get along with them, helping the students in any situations, and humbly making an honest reception to the students with a bit of good deed and honorable reputation. They doing their job as a human because these workers have families to carry and they are always rely on these workers who have determination to work hard and serve hard for the University as well as the manpower agency that they were work for. 

For more than 18 years, despite of some irregularities in the last 4 years, they are now leaving the university. And literally, that's sad to know. Many people reacted about this indigenous and untimely act of bidding farewell. The administrators justified their stand, and they did what is best to bid for the new one, without almost informing everyone. The title that I write represents the people who are highly contribute to the events made by the last 20 years. Examples are the following: they protect and clean the environment that led to the institution's one of the "Greenest University" in the Philippines and the world; they honestly brought back some items to the respective owners that led to the features of SWAFO's Honest Persons around the campus; and they helped the whole community to mandate and successfully create and design the things needed for a great event.

Sadly, it was disappointing because they have things to carry and to build things in the future. And because I felt them whether I talked to them or seeing them around, they are obviously make things possible, thanks to the smiles gave to us, the students. For those who are manpower workers or should I say "Almers", I am really proud of you, especially those who are in Chapel, Library, and LDH-FCH. I appreciate your works and no one can beat Almers in the first place. Thank you and this should be the farewell to them. Try to visit La Salle after Holy Week.

P.S. May God bless you more.

FOR ONCE AND FOR ALL

I was once became isolated in the world Until everyone notices me with some gifts And it becomes a precious blessing to the class For once and for all, the history's invented. Beyond expectations, became a real person In the eyes of God, a clear view wanders around The greatest gift no one saw and already know For once and for all, everything's so bright to see. I was once became communicative with them Until the day that became can't understand The words that I have to reach out the fellow friends For once and for all, the prey became the shame beast. The memory cannot analyze the real facts On the things that are mess to look like an night owl Standing about experience that is so rabid For once and for all, things go dis-illuminate. I was once became disillusioned by events And it strikes like a lightning bolt above the hill Because of conspiracies spreads like a red bull For once and for all, division requires strange things. And behold the eye o...

A Birthday to The Greatest Girl I've Ever Met

NOTE: Probably Micah G. is my bet to win the USC; and miracles happen, she won. But this person ultimately surprised me only because I want to questioned her about the issues of the University and how they handle it (the actions done). Of course, history changed the presence in her college. So here we go: telling a story that stuck to my memory over and over again. (Just like Inside Out!) March 2, 2015, the electoral debate. I have no classes after 4:00 PM when I watched this event organized by the Student Commission on Elections. I was also doing a technical paper about Electrostatics (more complicated in reference and sentences) when the COEd slate of both parties spoke in the debate. And later, the USC slate. Now, to get an attention from some of the people who watched the debate, I asked several people about the issues and of course, their answer to my curious mind about the issues mostly within the University premises. After the deba...
