have a good weekend!

In line with my blog point, I have this quote from the bible and from an email

“We must work the works of Him who sent Me as long as it is day; night is coming, when no one can work” 
(John 9:4)

Our opportunity to expend great energy for God could suddenly be gone. 
Make the most of your “day”!

In my own words, 

Make Today Count

Do not postpone til the morrow what you can do today

 

50-1 Philippine Science High School Reunion

September 7 was the 50-1 anniversary celebration day of the Philippine Science High School, Agham Road Diliman Quezon City.  The hosting batch was batch 88.  Food was ..... some spaghetti noodle stuff, chickenini lollipop, beef ala something.  Food was okay although

The theme, sci-fi, appropriately enough.  and they had the Enterprise, but had lots of input from Star Wars.  I was trying to remember the New Trek props, but TOS is really ingrained in me so i thought the hallways were different - it looked more like the ship from Star Wars, you know, when Darth was intent on capturing Leia

We - Xennon (who was running in the elections) and Beth, Lito with the lovely Min, Alice and Manny, Leo Peter, Sonch, Dode, Ji-Ben Catajoy, Carl Dawang, and me were there to represent our batch. Lito brought a couple of bottles of wine, and i drank some.  i also had the idiocy to drink pepsi max. idiocy? well, only because it causes me insomnia, so i had no sleep Saturday night, and i had to make do with sleeping in Sunday --- all day.  Good thing i had filed for leave Monday to do stuff at Camp Aguinaldo so i did not have to wake up early.

there were several "lectures", for example, the directress of PSHSS (imitating UPS - University of the Philippines System) told us about PNoy's appreciation of PSHS graduates.....

i wondered how true that statement was ......
well, let me ask PNoy ...
how many heads of government agencies know their own?  how many heads know which of their employees are Sayans graduates?  do they even know if there is any graduates?


there was the usual request for money as the 50 for 50 saying went.  this really is the goal - that is, to reach 50 million for the 50th anniversary of the founding of Philippine Science.  i dont know what the Batch plans are -

you know Jose Mari Chan and Mitch Valdes, right?
the singing nephrologists are very good.  i have enjoyed their performances in previous concerts.
ArtsnFriends also support Kidney Friends.

See you there.....

Have you been to the SSS Livelihood and Bazaar Exhibit?

Yes?  Good, then do return.
If you havent, then do drop by....
it is by the MAC Building, SSS grounds, East Avenue, Diliman, QC
and it will run until Friday, 6 September

i did a quick go-around yesterday (it was almost 5 pm and most were closing up)

and i bought again from the Women's Correctional Institute.  i try to buy from them every time they exhibit at SSS because their food allowance from the government is only 50pesos/day ... for 3 meals, and their work certainly adds to their food budget.

they have crochet items - mostly shawls/shrugs, very in these days at a very suitable price
... i told them they should have crochet stuff -dresses sized S-L  or even vest types

i bought some kitchen towels, having paired them by color - red, light blue, blue, and orange

and i showed them the crochet pullover i was wearing and told them i want one if they could manage

i also got some doormats, of the cloth type as this is the season for rains, and wet/muddy shoes just simply wont work.


i am also eying blouses, pretty, pretty - except i want them with 3/4 sleeves.  guess i should have gotten pics.

there is also a stall selling ready to hang curtains.  120x56 inches.  nice.  am rather partial to the blue but our main sala is a gorgeous red and our dining room is a cool green so ......

there is one lady selling costume jewelry, some freshwater pearls.  very nice.
could be a gift for Christmas, or a birthday.

i have to redrop by the Baguio and the Davao booth because they were almost closed when i dropped by
