When love hammers

laureenjean — Mon, 14 May 2012 15:17:27 +0000

YOU can only build a house, not a home. But if the builder has love as his hammer and compassion as his screws, a home is not just built but founded.

The scorching ball of fire dwelt long in the azure sky that day. It would have been just one of the usual lazy Saturdays but it had made an alteration – not just to my droning schedule – but to my life, as a whole. It in fact changed the lives of the hundreds.

Ave Maria

laureenjean — Fri, 11 May 2012 14:48:07 +0000

I HAVE never written about her. And I had never confessed how much I love her.

It was hard scribbling the words that would not fully make sense until I meant them. I know she isn’t a fan of poetries or of love letters and flowers. So here I find myself writing out of rhymes and nosebleed-worthy Shakespearean lines, hoping my number one fan would have something to cut out and keep like the other articles I’ve written for school.

I will stop writing for her and finally write about her.

A living museum for Cagayan River’s heritage of fish

mvgalarpe — Sat, 05 May 2012 14:04:25 +0000

SINCE Felipe Velez Abrogar was a young boy of eight in the middle ‘60s, he grabbed every chance he could get to fish in the Cagayan River, which ran near their residence in Barangay Nazareth, in the then sleepy city of Cagayan de Oro.

Together with fishing buddies Nilo and Daning Loplop, the boys would frequent the arroyo (Spanish for creek) or sapa near the Archbishop’s House to fish for halo-an (mudfish), pantak (catfish), casili (eel), kikilo (spotted scat) and buwan-buwan (tarpon).

As the sand runs out

laureenjean — Fri, 27 Apr 2012 16:12:06 +0000

IT HAS been a long-time predicament. For students like me, we consider ourselves criminals – the non-forgivable thieves of precious time. Imprisoned in this unresolved self-struggle. We always wanted to hold the long hand and step on the clock’s short arm. The call of the crow serves as the most annoying harmony. At worst, we want to hang ourselves in the pinnacle of nowhere whenever we had to accomplish and squeeze stacks of activities within 24 hours.
