Field Trip Adventure: Exploring Villa Escudero




Hey everyone! Today, I'm excited to share my recent field trip experience to Villa Escudero, a stunning resort located just a few hours away from our school. Although the trip was optional due to its cost, only six came in my section. The day started early. I woke up at 4:10 am, grabbed a quick bite, and rushed to school for our assembly at 4:45 am Thankfully, despite the tight schedule, I managed to make it on time, thanks to a cab ride to the assembly point. Our bus was waiting, and after a short stop for breakfast and comfort, we hit the road and arrived at Villa Escudero full of anticipation. Our first stop was the museum tour. The collection was amazing—rare artifacts and pieces from around the world. Photography was restricted, which made the experience even more exclusive. Next up was a unique team-building activity that unfortunately got rained out, but we made the best of it under shelter and then enjoyed a delicious buffet lunch.


After lunch, we had the option to watch a cultural show or head straight to the swimming pools. Intrigued, we decided to check out the show first, but we got a bit lost navigating the vast resort. Eventually, we made it but couldn't find good seats due to the crowd. So, we decided to dive into the pools instead.

The resort had a variety of swimming spots—the public pool, a refreshing jacuzzi, and even the famed Labasin Waterfall Restaurant. It was exhilarating to swim near a waterfall, although the water was icy cold! We spent the afternoon splashing around, taking photos, and just enjoying the beautiful surroundings. As the day wound down, we gathered our things and boarded our bus, reflecting on the day's adventures. The field trip was not only enjoyable but also educational, offering us a glimpse into history, nature, and Filipino culture. Overall, Villa Escudero was a fantastic destination for our field trip. Despite a few hiccups like the rain and the challenge of navigating such a large resort, it was a day filled with fun, laughter, and new experiences.

Cycling Adventure: From Vermosa to Evia

  Hello cycling enthusiasts! Today, I'm excited to share with you the details of a memorable bike ride adventure from Vermosa to Evia. Join me as I recount the exhilarating journey filled with scenic views, unexpected challenges, and good company. It all began with a simple conversation back in school. My friend and I, passionate about cycling, often discussed our biking plans and dream destinations. One day, my friend suggested Vermosa for doing laps—a perfect spot for a weekend ride. However, with school commitments during weekdays, our biking adventures were limited to Saturdays. As the weekend approached, we finalized our plans. On Friday, we deliberated over our meeting point. I proposed 7/11, but my friend suggested Bella Vista as the ideal starting point for our Vermosa adventure. Excited and well-prepared, I packed everything I needed and woke up bright and early at 5:00 AM to begin the day. I headed to Bella's place, our designated meeting spot, and patiently waited...

Intramurals Experience

  Hello, everyone! Today, I'd like to share my intramurals experience with you. I've always wanted to join and be a badminton player since Grade 10, but I missed the tryouts because I got sick. So, I decided to try out in Grade 11. When the list of intramurals participants was posted, my friends and I discussed what we would do if we didn't get picked for badminton. We decided to sign up for three sports just in case. Little did we know, the tryouts for all three sports were scheduled at the same time. During the badminton tryouts, only two of us made it into Batch 1. One of my friends switched to volleyball, and luckily, there was a Batch 2, so another friend got in. After some tough competition, we secured our spots in both Batch 1 and Batch 2. My friend and I played doubles, and another friend played singles. We played at school and trained at Raquetaz once a week. The day of the parade came, and I was overjoyed to be part of the intramurals. Three days later, the game...
