INTER NATIONS

I have decided to back out of the Cebu City community but still be active as a member. Secretariat n lng ko lagi. I know man gud that Ma'am Ludy can organize the events very well. Kapoy pud mag-organize lagi kay gasto kajus panahon ug kwarta. So backseat n lng ko and attend n lng lagi ko as member pohon. I can maintain the directory as well as GC on Messenger for the group but si Mam Ludy doesn't need to confer with me for the next events. So I think it will work out very well ra. Tua n gani new member to Cebu nga nikontak nako. Si Tristan Toriaezu who is French/Indonesian. Good morning to us all and aloha! :)

KL AGAIN?

I've been watching videos from WeAreOcampo on their latest trip, to KUala Lumpur, Malaysia (KL, MAS). Maybe it is worth visiting again. My last trip there in October 2017 was described as 'epic fail' gud ni Sir Max coz hapit man ko ato wa kauli lagi. Swerte n jud kaju ko lagi that my good friend Sunil in Qatar bailed me out. Anyway, nice man kaju ang Malaysia diay. Nice tong Melaka that they featured. Didto pud silas Genting Highlands. Ang latest video nila was of the Chocolate Kingdom. I looked in the map; duol ra xas KLCC. I stayed in Chinatown KL before. This time I just have to plan it well so that maenjoy nako ang tour lagi. Jia you Doki, aloha Sunday. Go go go!

EXTERNAL CAMPUSES

The story of today: Northwestern University in Qatar and University of Nottingham in UK, China and Malaysia. So di n lng pud ta matinga lagi if in future naa n nya pud Manila campus ang other reputed universities outside the country. Go go go! :)

HEARING NA!

On the email, my thesis advisee Larrace Suelto from Dipolog City said that magdesign hearing n daw siya this Friday, March 24 pohon. I think madala niya coz gamay n mn lng kuwang sa iyang proposal lagi. I asked her to reorder ra man some of the research questions, write the methodology in paragraph form, add references and timetable of activities, insert page numbers. Add Table of Contents p? Makaya ra to niya pohon. Go go go! I just realized that this is my first time to be thesis adviser at MBA level man diay. (Coz ako may adviser nila AJ, Kerry, Neil etc before sa CDU-IS program). Mao diayng excited pud ko for her study pohon. Plus I'll be paid pud during the hearing. Heheh. Hopefully matakdan or mosunod pud iyang klasm8s lagi. Go go go, aloha Friday! :)

ENVIRONMENTAL CONSERVATION

Naa ra jud siguro opportunity for me in this field. Nice kaju ang DENR program this morning on Women in Conservation. And I was able to respond pud to the contact request of this certain Justin Thompson, an environmental activist from Ohio, USA. I added and msgd him on LinkedIn already. I replied to his message too in The Economist's Sustainability Summit at the end of this month. Gusto daw siya makigcollaborate lagi. Of course, why not? Napun-an akong contacts. Salamat po Lord. Go go go!

DUBAI

Today I saw this video from Sir Perry Fajardo's FB about the amazing growth in Dubai since the 1960s. And I also learned that Chef JP Anglo has a new restaurant there called Kooya which he opened in February last year. So there must be really something about the Middle East. If I'm not mistaken, tua man gud didto ang 2nd largest concentration of Filipinos overseas. The highest being the USA of course. The primary reason is the oil and gas industry jud. The first Filipinos arrived in KSA gud kuno as engineers in the 1970s. They were the ones who built the highways and buildings there daw. Based on what I read, the Arabian embassy in Manila issues about 100,000 visas daw every year. Pero there are a lot of Filipinos who are illegally staying in KSA and in the rest of the Middle East of course. It's not all a bed of roses as expected. I told Sunil n diay of my news. I dunno if madayon lagi. Ginoo n ang mag-igo. Salamat po Lord and aloha Thursday! Imagine, Friday n dayon ugma pohon. Seems like only y'day when Boy Abunda aired his interview with Liza Soberano last week. And tomorrow Friday n pud lagi. I have a class on Saturday kay wala man sila kaapil sa webinar. Sa March 22 pohon I asked them to join a webinar. I said if dili sila sugtan sa ilang bosses, then of course we'd just have to find an alternate activity. Jia you to us all! ;)

DOMESTIC WORKER

My ISS batchmate Nelia told me that being a private tutor in KSA would mean that I'm a domestic worker daw so she suggested that I apply to schools abroad. I did just that this afternoon. Syaro sa 12 k applications lagi as Business and Economics teacher at various international high schools abroad, wala jud mobawos ato! So tan-awn n lng lagi ni kung asa jud ko mapadpad. Please show me po Lord. Amen.
