My first recruitment week (day pala)

Recweek last week. kaya nga lang, naospital ako for four days so I only got to sign up for organizations on Friday. Rec week was very fun! Kasi ang daming freebies! The organizers were fantastic because they were able to have Ipanema, Magnolia, Nestea and even Biogenic alcohol as sponsors. However, it was not just the freebies that I was after. After all, it was recruitment week. It was fun to really get a chance to sign up for the various organizations. I decided to join three this semester just to test the waters. I joined my home organization, Ateneo Chemical Society or ACheS and two others, Youth for Christ and Gabay.

I am taking up BS Chemistry and Material Science Engineering so I guess joining ACheS would be Big help. I joined YFC because I think it would help me stay grounded (hopefully....). Gabay, on the other hand is an organization aiming to help scholars in public schools near the Ateneo. I think working for that cause would be fulfilling enough.

I was thinking that I had too many orgs already. Pero may classmate nga akong 9 yung orgs nya!! Fantastic! I just hope to balance everything out. Our load is a bit heavy compared to thers- 22. Sana nga kayanin ko.. Aja!!

I thought Father's Day was last Sunday

I really thought Father's day was last Sunday!!! That must have been the reason why my classmates' fathers were asking them if they wanted something that day. That was my wrong.

Still, there were a few lessons I learned from the incident.
It doesn't really matter what day is Father's Day for everyday is a reminder that we have a father who unconditionally loves us, who provides for us and who constantly forgives and understands us for the wrongs we have done in the past.

For this, I would like to greet my beloved Papa Arnel, a happy, happy Fathers' day for being the best father in the whole wide world!!!

I'm grateful to our Almighty Father above for blessing me with such a great father.

Happy Fathers' Day to all the Fathers in the world. Stay the best for your children!
