My idea of an SIT Day for 2013

Annually, the School of Information Technology holds its SIT Day, a break from the daily routine of a student - studying.  This is one of the "fun-learning" events in University of Baguio in which students and faculty alike can savor unlimited fun for a day.

AFTER EARTH : a movie review

AFTER EARTH  review After Earth is a sci-fi movie directed by M. Night Shyamalan and it stars Will Smith (Cypher) and his son Jaden (Kitai). It is flooded with criticisms for being dull and very predictable and I agree  that its plot is indeed foreseeable. In the first part of the movie, you can already guess the plot without reading reviews or watching trailers - "an afraid boy trying to prove himself, caught in an unexpected challenge but in the end, he triumphs".    Read my review...

SIT Amazing Race in Bicol (part 3 of 3)

Sixth Stop: CARAMOAN ISLANDS From Donsol, we went to Caramoan Islands.  One of the longest trip I ever had (I'll tell you why in a moment).  We called up the van we hired from Legazpi to Donsol to bring us back to Daraga with the same price.  He brought another van with a different seat orientation which made me a bit sick especially that Donsol to Daraga is "bitukang-manok" or zig zag. We were able to deal PhP 1,200.00 for 12 persons going back to Daraga vs PhP 20.00 tricycle per head plus 100.00 van per head.

Fifth Stop: DONSOL, SORSOGON As a continuation of the SIT Amazing Race in Bicol, our group set off to Donsol for the Whale shark Interaction.   In the months of November through May (or even June), they say whale sharks converge in the Donsol bay to feed on the phytoplanktons and other small organisms.  With just a simple snorkeling equipment, you get to enjoy swimming with these gigantic friendly creatures.
