Camp Kabataan's Preparations for LEVEL UP SYC 2010 (Working on A Wednesday)

I'm still dreaming at around 10:30 yesterday morning when I overheard two young people talking to my father and asking for me. Turns out that these two are my pals from JIVE Youth. A hypnopedic like me gets easily distracted. I woke up and told my father that I'll be meeting them in a while.

My two pals asked me for directions on how to go to SBC-Masinag. They have a rehearsal for the LEVEL UP Summer Youth Camp 2010. I ended up not taking a bath, not eating breakfast and accompanying them to SBC-Masinag.

I wasn't supposed to be here in Masinag, Antipolo City because I have to follow-up JIVE Youth's participants for the Summer Youth Camp in Makati. Camp Kabataan's Drama Team wasn't the only one here. The Registration, Production and other organizers are also here.

I must say, Camp Kabataan's volunteers are doing are really great job in preparing for our organizations' yearly highlight. The Drama Team is already in the perfecting stages of their rehearsals. I wasn't allowed to peek but I did anyway.

Campers, Counsleors, Pastors and Volunteers, Level Up Summer Youth Camp 2010 will make you nostalgic of the '90s. that's all I can say.

The Production Team is also finishing the decorations and other stuff for the stage, and the whole venue. They are also doing a really great job. If I may say so, LEVEL UP SYC 2010 is the most beautiful, action-packed and wonderful Youth Camp of Camp Kabataan.

SBC-Masinag's office became the extension of my home office for yesterday. Thank you Pastor Alvin. Thank you also to Pastor Jeff for letting me use his laptop to finish this post.

Join Camp Kabataan's LEVEL UP Summer Youth Camp 2010 and have good, exciting, fun!

See you there and to Camp Kabataan's volunteers, Kudos to you all!

I Will Get There

Just this afternoon, while in my class, our college's guidance counselor came and asked me to see him at the Guidance Office. I was wondering what it was. The latest violation I had was September of 2008 when I went to school without my ID card.

I met with him later and asked about the 4 absences I had in one of my subjects. 5 is the maximum number of absences one is allowed for this term. I said, in my defense, and in a good manner that I only have 3. My professor in that boring, blasted subject, who I may add teaches like high school, miscounted my absences as 4. I told that professor that it was only 3 and I showed proof---the activity that professor gave us that day.

Now this Guidance Counselor of ours asked me what do I want in life. I replied, "We all crave for success." This GC of ours has been acting as if he is better than me since the first term.. I have respect for authority but there are just certain times when you want to contradict them---that's called rebellion. They have to do their job, I understand that, but I think his approach in dealing with me is a little bit out-of-line.

For the record, I am aware, I understand and I know the repercussions of having excessive absences. I need not be reminded. It is my responsibility to go to class. I am not one of those students who go to school to just to fail their subjects, chat with friends and don't care about learning. I study smart. And yes, I will graduate college and be a successful person in my field.

It will take time, but I will get there.
