Ala-una ng hapon, ika-22 ng Setyembre 2025, maagang tinapos ang klase namin ngayon at kasalukuyan kong binabagtas ang daan pauwi sa amin. Selebrasyon daw ng "Kainang Pamilya Mahalaga," alinsunod sa Proklamasyong Blg. 326 noong 2012. Taunan daw itong ipinagdiriwang tuwing ika-apat na Lunes ng buwan ng Setyembre—pagdiriwang upang bigyang importansya ang pagsasama-sama ng bawat pamilya sa pamamagitan ng pagsasalo-salo at pagpapaigting na rin sa isang malalim na kasanayang Filipino, paliwanag ng aming guro. Sapantaha ko, mas gugustuhin ko na lang na gugulin ang mga natitirang oras sa paaralan.

Tayo ang magdidikta kung saan dapat tayo pumwesto

May 10, 2026 12

Sa ilalim ng puno ng mangga, sa tabi ng kalsadang bumubuo sa bituka ng kaloob-looban ng Pamantasan ng Bicol, naroon kami nakaupo ni Nic Valencia, isang estudyante-aktibista. Palubog na rin ang araw, kaya’t ipinagpatuloy na namin ang pag-uusap habang nagtitiis sa mga dumadapong langaw, sa ingay ng mga humaharurot na motor, at sa kinauupuan naming kahoy na hindi namin namalayang nabasa pala ng ulan.
