Unveiling the Soul of Japanese Ramen

As I stepped into Akabana, a cozy haven tucked away in the heart of Cauayan City, Isabela, a wave of comforting aromas enveloped me, instantly awakening my taste buds and igniting my excitement. This was my go-to place whenever the craving for a steaming bowl of Japanese ramen struck, and tonight, I was in for a treat. Seated at a corner table, I soaked in the inviting ambiance of the…

A 5.9 × 4.4-inch photograph of Papa Isio from the Harry H. Bandholtz Papers, Bentley Historical Library, University of Michigan. He is framed by two followers in a Bacolod prison, circa 1907.

Papa Isio was born as Dionisio Magbuelas on March 20, 1846 and was an anti-colonial rebel and babaylan (i.e. Visayan shaman) during the Negros Revolution who, in response to land loss, lead a group of other babaylans in the cause for nationalistic agrarian reform. At one point in time Papa Isio fled the Spanish authorities during which, according to Modesto P. Sa-onoy, he may have joined Dios Buhawi, a fellow Negrense and babaylan leader who once waged a politico-religious revolt against the Spanish in the late nineteenth century. Papa Isio’s own nom de guerre was an appropriation of the Santo Papa’s title and a repudiation of his and the Church’s authority.

Papa Isio was eventually cornered not by the Spanish but by American forces. He surrendered to Lieutenant J.S. Mohler on August 6, 1907 and died in Manila’s Old Bilibid Prison sometime in 1911, before which he may be regarded as the last revolutionary standing “who was consistent in his fight against the Spaniards and the Americans.”

Since his death, Papa Isio has been commemorated with a statue in Cauayan, Negros Occidental and was featured in the artwork “The Spiritual Landscape of Papa Isio” by Riel Hilario.

Hello future educators👋 !

I am Kristel Kayla Tadaya, a 19-year old (soon turning 20) third year student at St. Paul University Philippines who is currently residing at Marabuig 1, Cauayan City, Isabela pursuing Bachelor of Secondary Education Major in Social Studies in higher education at St. Paul University Philippines-Tuguegarao. I am small and unpredictable. I finished my Senior High School at the same university under Humanities and Social Sciences strand Set B.

In all honesty, I never really had a dream or passion over a certain field. I just went with the flow and picked the course I thought that I am compatible the most. My teachers and classmates commended me for peer tutoring and from there I took an interest in taking up Teacher Education. However, that interest never really became a passion. It is only until my 8th grade that I decided that I want to become an educator who teaches History, which reflects what I am majoring in right now – Social Studies. I developed an adoration for History. I love how things are what it is now in relation with what it is then. I enjoy reading timelines and historical events because I felt like I was time-traveling. It felt like I finally knew what I wanted to be.

 Everyone must have their own goals, such as choosing a particular path or profession, but for me, my roots—my family—have always served as the foundation for my future. Although I have the urge to pursue my own goals and profession, I have always placed a higher priority on supporting my family. My parents, especially my father wanted me to take up Law. It was his dream for me since I was a child, but he never really forced that unto me. Since I truly don't know how I envision myself in five years, I can only assume that I will still be busy learning, aspiring, and developing myself as a person, a daughter, a friend, and a contributing member of society. I might still be in school by then, completing my studies, taking up Law or I might be exploring other jobs. There are a lot of options for me to choose from, but what I prioritize most is to be able to help my family, to be able to provide for them, and make them happy.

I will always be proud of my decision to attend St Paul University Philippines. My education at this university made a significant contribution to the knowledge we received as well as the practical skills and attitudes that each person needs to have. It gave me opportunity to grow and learn. Through our core values and the teachings embedded to me as a Paulinian, I have learned and unlearned things that have contributed to my morality and principles. Looking back on earlier events in my life, I can definitely see how I've improved as a person, and how I was able to establish a foundation in understanding myself and who I want to become. By taking up my course, I understood my purpose. It allowed me to understand the significance of education. It might not be the best for others, but for me, it is. It is known as the noblest profession after all for it enables all the other profession. It taught me the joy of contributing to an individual’s growth.

And with that, I greet you a happy day ~

I am writing this to express what I did on sembreak. But what is sembreak? I, Precious Roan M. Lopez unwinding the things I’ve done in the semreak. What a better time to unwind and recharge during sembreak.

High schools offer wide range of extracurricular activities, including sports and clubs. These activities help students provide opportunities for students to explore their passions, develop leaderships skills, and build social connections. High schools is a time for self discovery and time for personal growth.

Students have the opportunity to discover or develop some skills through numerous academic pursuits, talents, and interests in addition students may have the opportunity to choose they want to become based on their interest and career goal. High schools is a mile stone to accomplish because some people did not even go to high school and an event where students receive their diplomas and celebrate accomplishments. High school is often the most unforgettable time of your life because it is often marked the transition from high school to the next phase of your life.

During my first year in high school in Regional Science High school and a dormer, I first struggled adjusting on school because I only see my family twice a week. I’ve been through a lot this school year but I know it will be all paid off.

Sembreak is a term usually used in the Philippines, and it’s a short form of “Semestral Break”. “Sem” stands for semestral and “Break” indicates a pause or interruption in academic activities. It is where a period of rest or vacation between academic semester in school.

During the night after the exam, I did my schedule for the semestral break. On the first night I scheduled to relax and rest, watched some movies, I watched the “The 8th Night”. I was not that much scared because it was my second time to view it. I also caught some sleeps because these few days I always stayed up late and lacked some sleeps because of the exam, but even if I stayed all night I still ended up failing. Afterwards, I did some hobbies; I did like riding the bike.

On the day three to four, I did some advance reading on Math that I still did not know about. I studied the next lesson for the 3rd quarter: the multiplying polynomials, dividing polynomials and special products. After watching the explanation on Youtube, I finally understand it but I still don’t know the dividing polynomials. We also went to the wedding of my parent’s co-worker; we ate our lunch there and stayed there for like an hour watching them putting money on the newlyweds and doing some traditional way of celebrating wedding. After that we went to SM Cauayan to buy some stuff ad to bond and relax with my family.

In the afternoon we went to Bambanti Festival. We romed around there to see the beautiful Bambanti Village Agri-Tourism Booth. We took some pictures and then bought some snacks to eat like the Pasteurized milk, cotton candy, and corn with condensed milk and with cheese. We did not go to the concert in the evening because my parents had told me that there are going to be many people at night.

The next day, I was approved to hangout with my friends. We went to the park played with the bouncy car, slides, seesaw and swings. We also played there for a good 40 minutes. We felt like we were children again and then we went to the Korean mart to buy something. After that we played at the ground floor of the mall and then we headed to “Time Zone” to play games, we played the fish things, the ball one where you have to get the ball on the hole and we won many tickets there. We also played the gun thing and my friend accidentally pressed the one player button.

On the last day before the last day of sembreak, we were allowed to go on a sleep over by my friend’s house. I saw my two friends who did not pass the entrance exam. We swam until nightfall then my friend’s father bough McDonald’s and pizza. I ate chicken with spaghetti and a piece of pizza with Mcfloat. We watched “Alive” Korean Drama. It was so intense that we shouted and screamed at the actress when she fell to the ground. After that, we ate our midnight snack and we went to sleep.

On the last day of sembreak I had to go to the dorm because I needed to. When I had arrived I unpacked my things and went downstairs to get the food I asked auntie to buy for me. After that, we waited for my other roommate to watch a movie; when she had arrived we watch the movie ”Scream”. It was so fun but not scary. It had so many plot twists that I did not expect. One of the friends of the victim is the killer and the other killer is the boyfriend’s sister; the fight was so intense and had many jump scares.

I spend my sembreak by bonding with my family too. It was really memorable to be with my loved ones; we went to places to bond with them and build strong relationships for this can help you to open up or share some thought, feelings and allows you to get know each other deeper.

We have to prioritize the task that are important. We have to set our goals because clear goals can give you directions and it can make your life easier. Don’t put necessary things later

The most important is we have to balance our life because it is important for relaxation, hobbies and work. Time is one of the most crucial aspects of life. It’s a gift that we have to use wisely with family and friends because once it’s gone you can never go back so make a memories that is unforgettable.

Seize the Break: Making the Most of Your Semester Freedom!

As the clock struck January 23rd, marking the end of another set of grueling examinations, a wave of relief washed over me. It was time to embrace the much-awaited semestral break, a period reserved for relaxation, rejuvenation, and unforgettable memories. With determination, I made a conscious decision to disconnect from the world of academia, ensuring that this break would be nothing short of spectacular.

With my studies set aside, I embarked on an adventure with my closest companions, seeking solace in the serene ambiance of a resort. Surrounded by laughter and camaraderie, we indulged in delectable cuisines and refreshing beverages, basking in the sheer joy of togetherness. It was a blissful escape, a temporary reprieve from the academic pressures that often loomed overhead.

But the surprises didn't end there. Upon returning home, I was greeted with an unexpected invitation from my aunt to join our extended family in Roxas, a quaint town nestled in the heart of Isabela. Eager to seize every opportunity for adventure, I eagerly accepted, eager to embark on yet another unforgettable journey.

Our time in Roxas was nothing short of magical. From exploring the local zoo to marveling at the enchanting glow of Isabela's nighttime skyline, every moment was imbued with wonder and excitement. Despite the modest offerings of the zoo, the experience was priceless, a testament to the beauty of simplicity and the joy of exploration.

As the day drew to a close, our appetites led us to SM Cauayan, where we dined at Mang Inasal, savoring the flavors of Filipino cuisine amidst the warmth of familial bonds. It was a humble yet unforgettable meal, a reminder of the importance of cherishing simple pleasures and treasuring the company of loved ones.

But the adventures didn't end there. Eager to continue our exploration, my parents surprised me with a trip to Manila, a bustling metropolis teeming with endless possibilities. Together, we embarked on a journey of discovery, immersing ourselves in the vibrant energy of the city and indulging in the delights of Mega Mall.

As we roamed the halls of my mother's favorite shopping destination, I couldn't help but marvel at her unwavering dedication to our family. Her tireless efforts to provide for us were truly commendable, and this trip served as a well-deserved reward for her selflessness.

Our visit to Super Bowl was a culinary delight, a symphony of flavors that tantalized our taste buds and left us craving for more. From Bonifacio Global City to Mall of Asia, each destination offered its own unique charm, adding layers of richness to our already unforgettable journey.

In the end, it wasn't just the sights and sounds of Manila that left a lasting impression on me. It was the moments spent with my family, the laughter shared, and the memories created that truly defined the essence of this semestral break. It was a time of joy, reflection, and gratitude, a reminder of the importance of embracing life's simple pleasures and cherishing the bonds that unite us.

As I look back on these cherished memories, I am filled with a sense of gratitude and appreciation for the experiences that have shaped me. This semestral break may have come to an end, but its impact will linger on, serving as a reminder of the beauty of spontaneity, the power of family, and the joy of exploration.

Aid for Negros Rice Farmers Amid Dry Spell

The Plight of Negros Occidental's Rice Farmers

In the heart of the Philippines, the rice farmers of Negros Occidental find themselves grappling with a severe dry spell, pushing the provincial government to step in with much-needed assistance. The recent El Niño phenomenon has led to dwindling rainfall, affecting crops and livelihoods across the region.  

A Growing Concern

As of this week, the losses incurred by the agricultural sector have surged to approximately PHP12.8 million, with 373 rice farmers across seven local governments bearing the brunt of this natural calamity. Additionally, Governor Eugenio Jose Lacson has already initiated moves to source funds for aiding the impacted farmers, signaling a proactive approach to this escalating issue.   The Areas Hit Hardest The dry spell has left its mark on several areas, including Himamaylan and Sipalay cities, as well as the municipalities of Isabela, Binalbagan, Hinobaan, Moises Padilla, and Cauayan. These regions, known for their rice production, have seen their crops either stuck in the vegetative stage or wilting just before harvest.

Government's Response to the Crisis

The Provincial Government, under the guidance of Governor Lacson, is working closely with the Office of the Provincial Agriculturist (OPA) to determine eligibility for assistance and to fast-track the distribution of funds. This initiative highlights the government's commitment to supporting its agricultural backbone during these trying times.   Strategies for Mitigation With the El Niño weather pattern expected to persist, efforts are being directed toward sustainable solutions, such as the introduction of drought-resistant rice varieties and innovative irrigation techniques. Moreover, the Philippine Crop Insurance Corporation (PCIC) is stepping in to offer crop insurance claims, providing a financial safety net for those affected.

Looking Ahead

While the current focus is on immediate relief, the situation underscores the importance of long-term planning and climate resilience in agriculture. The collaboration between local farmers, government bodies, and agricultural experts is crucial for developing strategies that safeguard against future climatic adversities.   A Call to Action The plight of Negros Occidental's rice farmers is a stark reminder of the vulnerabilities inherent in agriculture, particularly in the face of changing climate patterns. It's a call to action for not just the provincial government but all stakeholders to invest in sustainable practices that will ensure the security and prosperity of the region's agricultural sector for generations to come.   Sources: THX News, SunStar, Digicast Negros, Philstar & Philippine News Agency.

Trying to Win Back

September 2 to 3, 2023

Today, I woke up feeling sore kasi nakatulog ako sa sahig trying to complete my daily steps from last night. I was not able to log na din pala sa journal from yesterday since nag-aya ng inuman si doc Ge pa sa amin after ng Grand Rounds.

I recomputed my calories and dang ang lala ng kinain ko kahapon. It's way too much calories and protein and I got a bit frustrated with my weigh in. Of course, I panicked a little bit pero I reviewed our weekly lesson again on adjustment and fine tuning.

Ok naman buhat ko, still in progressive overload pero I needed to control my fatigue and stress levels. It may cause also increased cortisol hence increased water retention and weight. Pero nilagay ko na naman yung extra calories in a cycle.Hopefully next week, that should do the trick and mabawi yung heavy weigh ins ko this week.

Worked out for lunch and prepared going out. Sa hapon, we went to Cauayan to eat at a new Italian-Spanish resto and went to Starbucks to drink a cup of coffee. Then, I went home to complete my remaining steps before clock strikes 12mn.
