“Courtesy Call at the Barnaggay 338”

This Saturday January 6, 2007, it’s the three king’s day, it is our courtesy
call to the barnaggay, we met the baranggay chairman of 338 zone 34 3rd
district.Mrs. Aquino first introduce us to the chairman and we also introduce
ourselves, we’ve talked about the projects that we are going to accomplish in
six (6) periods, or six Saturdays. After some conversations, the decision was
made, and we are going to repaint the chapel of the baranggay, not
necessarily the whole barnaggay but we are only assigned to paint all the
chairs inside the chapel, we are also going to plant 6 paet trees along the side
walks. And last but not\ the least our last project is the repainting of gutter
along P. Guevara st. Beautification in this barnaggay is our main goal and
we have to accomplish it as soon as possible.

“Tree Planting Activity”

This Saturday January 13, 2007, we arrived at the the baranggay at

exactly 8:00 in the morning. We first join the aerobics activity of group six
They lead the dance floor and the people there participated in that said
activity. We enjoy it too much. After that, we went to our proposed
baranggay which is near to that place, we called the assistant of the chairman
and seek for some help, regarding to the places or spots that we are going to
plat trees. We get all the necessary things needed for tree planting which are
the digging rod, shovel, trash bags, rake and water.
We plant six (6) paet trees along the side walk of P. Guevara street and
Milagros street we all have a hard time especially to those boys who dig the
soil, but despite of it we have fun while we are doing this activity, this
activity is really exciting because this is the very firs time we plant trees.
We finished the 6 paet trees and we came back to the baranggay at
around 12:00 in the afternoon.

“Repainting of Gutters”

This Saturday, January 20, 2007 our activity seems to be more

complicated as we go deeper, today we are going to repaint the gutter along
P. Guevara Street this is where the house of the chairman is located.
We canvass first for the prices of the necessary materials that we are
going to use which is the enamel (white) paint, brush, two (yellow-gold)
tinting color, brush, rollers and thinner.
We start painting at 10:30 in the morning we’re late because we
attended the morning activity of the other group so we have to double time
so we could finish it on time. First the girls clean the surface to be painted,
then the boys followed it with brush, we use the alternate method in order
for all the members experienced to paint, because our tools is not enough to
us. We finish painting at around 2:00 in the afternoon.
While we are doing this activity we really enjoy it because we all
worked together, although this work is too hard to do for us.

“Continuation of Painting Gutters”

This Saturday, January 27, 2007 is only a continuation of painting of

gutters. We started it around 9:45 in the morning we didn’t join the activity
of the other group because we are running out of time. we use the excess
paint on our previous activity, but this time the group six join us in our
proposed project they helped us cleaning along the P. Guevara street and
Milagros street, so we are really thankful because, they helped us. We group
ourselves; the boys were assigned for the continuation of painting gutters,
while the girls and group six clean the environment.
This time we finished our task early because the other group helped
us, so good for all of us because we can go home early and we are not going
to work under the sun no more.

our main project, and this time we’re just maintaining the cleanliness.
The Baranggay provides the walis ting-ting, garbage bag and
pandakot we started cleaning at around 8:30 in the morning, well this
activity is not too easy to do, imagine we are going to sweep the street of P.
Guevara but its okay because this is a part of our project and we are willing
to do this task because we are working together and we have team work. We
finished cleaning at around 11:45, we are tired and hungry, Mrs. Natividad
Aquino gave us drinks and food to eat, we are very thankful she is very kind
hearted. The volunteer which is kuya Jericho arrived at our destination to
seek and checked if we are really working, well that’s the part of the
program. Kuya Jericho suggested putting some placards along the areas that

Objective: to be able to accomplish our tasks and to maintain the discipline
in our group.

The most awaited part of this subject is the camping; we are required to
go to Mt. Makilig as a part of our activity. March 4, 2007 Sunday, we are
scheduled to go to Mt.Makiling for the third mobilization program. Our
assembly time is 4:00 in the morning at Technological University of the
Philippines, we leave the school at exactly 4:30 in the morning and we arrived
there at 5:30. The first thing that we did is the orientation, the volunteers and
professors join force to discipline us, they orient us regarding to the activities
that we are going to do. Kuya Jericho was assigned to us, he told us to group
ourselves into 20 members per group.

Our fist activity is the Obstacles, this is the most exciting activity that
we’ve ever encountered, we are amazed to their preparation, there are lots of
thrilling moments, such as when we enter the tunnel, when we cross through
the web cubs, when we climb up to the finish line, after this we have our
nature appreciation, where we make a song about nature. We finished the
obstacles around 11:45, its time for us to eat our lunch. We are hungry and
tired so we decided to eat our lunched. After we ate we take a nap for awhile
to have rest in order for us to be ready in our next activity which is the Water
Survival. We are here into our last activity, the water survival this is the most
awaited part of this camping, and we want swimming!!! We changed our
clothes and we face the trainers, they teaches us how to swim and survive. We
learn ed to do proper breathing, flutter kick and to float, after this we proceed
to the next level we learned how to survive if we are about to face some
calamities such as floods. We hold the rope and we swim to cross to the other
side of the pool. The enjoy swimming!
We leave at Mt. Makiling at Exactly 5:30 in the afternoon before we go
there’s a call check to suit it that we are complete. Its time for us have rest
because of our activity. We all do have fun, and we really enjoy those
activities.
