Then sa Friday pohon, I will accompany Ate Eva and Monie sa North Gen kay pacheckup kuno silas North General Hospital. Sabot n mi nga tagboon naho silas Pier then ubanan sa North Gen.

Then basin pwede ig k hapon ana ang filming with John and Gracia for his Youtube channel. Saturday pohon way klase sa MBA klas coz magpicture taking daw sila.

CLASSIN DEMO

It will be on Thursday, April 13th daw pohon at 16:00 via Classin. Thank you. I remember that we had a seminar for this LMS back in 2021 I think by C&E. Wala jud nako nagamit lagi ang akong nadownload nga app nila till this time. I am being considered man as an English teacher for this school in China. Gabii jud lagi daw ang ilang preferred nga teaching time. Kids to adults daw ang students oi. 1:1 jud lagi daw ang teaching, 25 minutes each session. Via Gcash daw ang payment. Learning materials will be provided daw by the student union and the rate that I will be given will depend daw on the demo class. After the demo class, I will be told daw what my rate will be. Jacy has experience man diay with ESL via Bizmates maong daghan pud siya nashare lagi. Salamat kaayo Jace. Di pud ko magtudlo till 12 midnight oi. So go lng ng go Aunty Doki, aloha! ;)

TIMES EDUCATION, ESL

On Friday night, somebody from China msgd me on Messenger coz they were looking for an online English teacher daw. I thought I had to think about it kay dugay n ko lagi wa magtudlo ug English and kids too. I got accepted also to that online reviewer job kunos TikTok. Ahh, akong giundangan oi kay wa ko kasabot. Mora ra mn mi ato ug giduwa2an. So I pursued the ESL thing with them. I just sent them my self-introduction video and CV. Nireply baya pud sila. Ila kunong ireview akong application. Gabii man lagi ilang prefer jud. Kids and adults kuno ang students; 1:1 jud kuno ang teaching at 25 minutes per session. The student union provides the teaching materials kuno. They said they were victims of Acadsoc. Pait; unsa kahay gibuhat nila bah. Anyway, balibaran n lng pud nako ni sila Lord if padutyhon n kos Rizwoods lagi. I'm expecting nga Tuesday 4/11/23 p to sila pohon mopatawag naho kay offeran kuno ko lagi nila ug contract. Well, I would have to be honest of course. If they want to replicate CDU in their school, then I may not be the right person for it. I can only do so much. Salamat po Lord sa opportunities nangabot. Keep showing me lang po Your will. Amen. Jia you Doki! Huwaton lng japon nako tong Rizwoods lagi kung unsay offer. Pray lng gud kanunay Doki, go go go! ;)

MERLO

Sakto ra jud akong gimessage si Merlo Aznar about the possible startup hub here in Cebu. Daghan man xa'g gisulti maong I put him on the GC n lng with John Smulo. Tua nagsabot n sila nga magmeeting n kuno next Thursday, April 13, 2023 pohon at 1pm at a coffee shop somewhere. John is interested in a startup accelerator daw oi. I pray nga magkasinabot sila Lord so that makatabang ra pud n namo lagi, in that it will provide jobs for our people. Merlo said maglisud tawn kuno lagi'g pangita diris Cebu ug Python programmers. Well, start with one thing lang sa jud lagi then move on to bigger things. I am very happy to help. Aloha Friday to us all! ;)

CUBAO, QC

I received a message from my classmate Any from Indonesia on WhatsApp. She asked me if I am familiar with Cubao, QC daw. I think this has something to do with her urban gardening project. I said no coz I don't live in Metro Manila. I referred her to Gladstone and Joy n lng. Gave her their emails. All the best Any. Aloha! :)

ASEAN FOCUS REPORT

I told my MBA klas in Dumaguete that kadtong article about sustainable businesses in ASEAN plus astrotourism ang akong iapil lagis midterm test namo pohon. Plus kadtong payments reading pud. Mga May n cguro mi magmidterm pohon and sa June 10 lagi ang finals. I did tell them that sa finals n mi magkita kay magpresent n silas ilang papers lagi by that time. Heheh. We have to speak English lagi kuno oi. E di sige po. Amen!

MCB, ASB

Since di n man lagi ko pwedes phase 2 sa ASEAN BCG kay 45 yrs old man daw ilang age limit, ngita n lng ko ug laing opportunity lagi. I enrolled in the Master in Central Banking (MCB) program sa Asia School of Business (ASB) in Kuala Lumpur. Ngita gud ko ug scholarship for it pohon. Sa September daw magstart ang program so by June 15, 2023 pohon ang deadline sa recommendation letters. I asked Mam Charlotte and Mam Jhe to write me the recommendation. One has to be immediate supervisor man daw and the other one must be someone daw that the applicant has worked with. Nagstorya n mi ni Mam Jhe sa chat. Ig balik sa school ig Tuesday 4/11 pohon lng daw niya buhaton. I dunno ni Mam Charlotte. Anyway, laju2 p man lagi ang June 15 pohon2. All the best Doki, go go go! ;)

CC MAYOR'S OFFICE

Today I emailed the above office coz supportive ra man si Purple Cow CEO lagi of my idea to build a startup hub here in Cebu. I will wait for the good mayor's response. It won't be till Tuesday April 11 lagi siguro pohon kay holiday man from today April 6 Maundy Thursday to Monday April 10 for Bataan Day pohon. I am quite positive nga mosupport siya coz like Singapore gud kuno lagi iyang vision for Cebu. Anyway, other than the government, we'd need the universities as well as venture capitalists in it too. Mabuhat ra lagi n tanan as long as their determination and perseverance. Jia you Doki, go go go! ;)

OPTIONS

I would do it this way, Lord. If bati gani ang offer sa Rizwoods, I might just ask Mam Amina to reconsider me for the private tutor post in Al Khobar, KSA. Pero mahadlok man jud lagi ko moadto Lord oi. I believe di ko Nimo pasagdan Lord. BTS gud, believe, trust, surrender. Amen!

DAVAO

Ahh, so if I'm guessing it right, si Aloha actually went to Davao lately. Ses! I told him that kami ni Ate Ica were not in Davao City but actually in Tagum City and I also went to Banaybanay, Davao Oriental for the first time. Then of course we met our cousins in Carmen and Panabo very quickly before heading back to Davao City in order to catch our flight back to Cebu. Nganong wa man jud siya mosulti di b nga didto diay siya? Well, it only means need n jud siya kalimtan. I will work on my new project which is to create like a startup hub here in Cebu. I will start with Cebu first then expand to Visayas and Mindanao. Anyway I have the contacts ra man from my academic friends. Hopefully tabangan ko ni John Smulo. I asked him for a contact man sa Silicon Valley. I'm sure mosupport ra pud si Mayor Mike Rama ani kay ang iyang vision for Cebu is like Singapore gud kuno. I'm sure USC and CDU would support it. I can contact USJR and the other schools here in Cebu pud. We just need the venture capitalist from the US. Good luck in your new project Doki. Aloha! :)

STARTUP

I was watching one of John Smulo's videos today on Youtube. In that video, among other things, he said he missed the startup culture in Silicon Valley. I messaged him that I want to create that culture here too. I'm sure the big universities here would be interested in that. USC and CDU lang daan, I'm sure mokagat jud sila lagi. And I am teaching at the MBA program lagi in Dumaguete so I'm sure they want to be included in it too. The rest of Visayas and Mindanao pud. And pwede pud eventually, to include Luzon so the entire Philippines n ang covered. Btw he has 4 sons daw kuno oi nga in their 20s in the US. Huh, so pila diay iyang edad n? He looks young man. And I think he has a daughter pud with his wife Grace here in Cebu. Oh well, personal life n n niya. God bless us all always, go go go! :)

GIVE UP

This morning, 4/3/23, per the direction of the Chair of the CTU Dept of Psychology and Social Sciences, I msgd her to say that I gave up my teaching load for this semester entirely. 33 units to tanan oi, at P175 per hour. But the catch is tuay klases lagi from last semester nga ipatiwas nija this sem. Nya mangayo siya ug panso. Sus ang iyang panso kay MW 730 to 9pm, Saturday 4 to 7 pm ug tua p jud Sunday nga 1 to 4 pm. Nya na'pay mosukol ana lagi? Then nanghire sila midterms na. Dakung binuang ilang style jud. Mao diay ng nipersist n nga system kay na'may modawat pud lagi. Kay naghuwat lagi kuno silas item sa government budget. Well, kamo n lng lagi ana mga mam ug sir. I think tua p koy laing options. Di ra ko pasagdan ni Lord jud. Amen. Ako n pud gimessage ang mga GCs nga lahi n ilang teacher. Tua n raba ta silay submissions lagi sa 1st homework coz gimeet n gud nako sila lagi last week. Gahimo p ko ug Google Classroom kada klase n lagi. Gamay man gud kaju to ug sweldo oi; pwede ra jud tong ilang setup lagi duwa2an or bagdoy2an. Kay daghan man diay nga affiliated with other government offices nga mopart-time p jud nila lagi. Ako kay wa koy plano man uroy mopart-time sa laing org maong di jud to para naho lagi. Para tos uban. Huwaton naho ang Rizwoods College coz they said they'd contact me after Holy Week in order to offer me a contract. If gamay japon ilang sweldo or bati ang working hours then balibaron pud naho lagi. I will pay back Madon diay this afternoon ig landong n kay moclear n siguro tong akong cheke today. I will also give money to Ate Ica. Wala man si Lorna mobasa pas ahong message so let's see n lng. Basta kay mopili ko Lord ug trabaho nga nindut ug sweldo, nice ug working hours ug nindut pud ang job opportunity b. Kadtong sa CTU kay teacher ra jud ko ug GE subjects lagi. Though Mam Raquel Obiso said pwede daw maarrange ig k next sem pohon. The fact remains that part-time teacher ra to lagi, way mention of item o unsa b. Aloha Doki, sakto ra lagi tong imong decision. Salamat po Lord. Amen!

Anyway, ako jud lagi gisamok si Mam Mizzy ganihang kadlawon. Dah, nasuko siya oi. I'm disturbing her Sunday kuno. Well, she disturbed my schedule for this semester. Diha n gud koy sked lagi when she offered me those teaching loads. She told me to accept the entire teaching load or let them go entirely. So I will use today lagi to think about it. Nameet n gud nako lagi tanang klases last week buyag. Tua n pud mi plan to meet tomorrow via Google Meet sa mga klases nga backlog from last sem lagi.
