The Start of IYLDP Adventures

Imus Youth Leadership Development Program, often referred to as IY or IYLDP, is a program especially made for students to train them to become great leaders in the future.

Fifty six (56) schools in Imus were given a chance to choose their representatives. The participants are carefully hand-picked by the authorities and coordinators of the program mentioned and I was so lucky that I am one of the 75 students from 22 different schools who will undergo the leadership development program especially made for the young Imuseños.

Last September 11, we had our orientation regarding the program. We were given an IYLDP kit which will help us throughout our whole journey in the program. We also took a lot of pictures, like a lot! I swear, some of them may be embarrassing because mostly are stolen shots. *hides under the chair*

The day after the orientation, we formally started the leadership development program. We were lectured about the works inside the city government and a lot of information was given which I think helped us to understand what is really happening inside the government.

Yesterday, we also introduced ourselves to each other and described ourselves in three words.. Yep! You heard it right, JUST THREE WORDS. So I described myself as an indecorous reckless wanderer. *wink wink*

Opportunities like this comes only once in a lifetime to me and I will never regret joining and participating this leadership training program which will not only help me to become a great leader in the future, but also to be a great individual. This is also a chance for me to meet different kinds of people and make a lot of friends!

This is just only the beginning… A great journey and adventure is ahead of me here in IYLDP!

Huling Sayaw

Ito na ang ating huling sandali - malapit nang mag-isang taon simula noong napaluha ako nang marinig ang unang pangungusap ng kantang ito na inawit ng Kamikazee habang ako’y nagpapaayos sa sasapit na oras. Ito na. Ito na talaga ang ating huling sandali. Ang huling pagkakataon na sasabak sa isang matinding laban kasama ang mga taong kapiling ko sa higit na limang taon. Hindi na tayo magkakamali – at nandito na nga tayo sa oras na ating pinaghandaan, ang oras na ating inabangan ang pagsapit, ngunit hindi hinihiling na matapos. Huling sayaw na natin. Huling laban na natin bago pa man magkahiwa-hiwalay ng landas. Junior’s Promenade na. Huling pagkakataon na din ito upang maisabuhay ang dangal na dala ng pangalan ng pangkat na Grade 10 – Excellence . Kahusayan. Hindi na dapat magkamali sa bawat paglapat ng mga kamay, sa pagtadyak ng mga paa, sa pagpilantik ng mga daliri, at sa pag-indak ng mga katawan. Kahusayan . Maipamamalas ba natin ito? Maisasabuhay ba natin ito? Kasi wala

Paano

Paano kung iwan mo ulit ako kagaya ng biglaan mong paglisan noon sa tabi ko? Kasi ako, lumisan man ako ay isasama kita dahil ang gusto ko ay kasabay kita sa pagtahak at pagsuong sa kung saan man ako pupunta. Hindi kita iiwan, hindi ako lilisan, kasi alam ko ang pakiramdam nang may lumiban, na wala man lang paalam. Paano kung pumili ka na naman ng iba at iwan muli ako sa ere? Kasi ako, ikaw at ikaw pa din ang pipiliin ko kahit ano pa man ang mangyari. Handa akong tanggapin ka kahit ilang beses mo pa akong hindi isama sa mga plano mo. Handa akong tanggapin ka kahit ilang beses mo pa akong iwanan sa isang lugar na walang katiyakan, sa isang lugar na tanging ikaw at ako lang ang nakakaalam, sa isang lugar na tila ako na lamang ang nakakaalam. Paano kung sabihin ko na di ako titigil na magmahal at umasa sa iyo, mapapatawad mo kaya ako? Kasi ako, hinding-hindi ako magsasawang magpatawad sayo. Hinding-hindi ako magsasawang umasa na magbabago ka pa, na babalikan mo

Resentment

Resentment, a contemporary romance written by Nicole London will be published today, October 29, 2015. Here’s a little sneak peek to the story. Re•sent•ment (noun) The act of hating – no, fucking loathing Dean Collins. (Yes, I’m well aware that’s not the actual definition, but it might as well be...) It’s been ten years since we've seen each other and the feelings are still as strong. I’m not going to bore you with all the details of how our love was once intoxicating, consuming, and perfect. Because it was . . . until it wasn't. I've been fine without him. I haven’t missed his cruelty, his coldness and his spite. And after the ugliest breakup in the history of breakups, I forced myself to move on. Year by year, the feelings I had for him slowly drifted away, but one encounter with him recently changed everything. One encounter made me realize how the heart doesn't forget shit, and how my mind is going to have to work ove
