"Buti na lang pala malaki ang maleta ko"

Enero noon at nanunuot hanggang buto ang excitement ng lahat--kagay ng sobrang lamig na hangin nang gabing iyon. Pakalat-kalat lang ang mga estudyante na balot na balot ng balabal at jacket, maiingay habang nagpapalakihan ng mga bitbit na maleta. Hawak ko ang isang takeout ng kape galing sa Mcdo nang makantiyawan ako ng mga kaibigan ko: "Uy 'te! Saan ang punta mo? Sa ibang bansa?" Sabay-sabay silang humalakhak, walang pakialam kahit alas dies na ng gabi. Kainis! Napahiya pa ako dahil sa bitbit kong maleta--malay ko bang masyado pala 'tong malaki! Kasi naman si Mommy! Ang sabi niya tama lang daw ang laki ng maleta ko at eto naman ako, nagpa-uto agad. Buti na lang at nabaling sa iba ang kantiyaw ng mga kaibigan ko.

First time kong pupunta sa Ilocos. Usap-usapan na talaga namin ang hindi pagtulog para masulit ang ilang oras na biyahe. Inaasahan na namin ang walang humpay na tawanan at asaran habang nasa biyahe, kaya uminom talaga kami ng kape bago umalis. At umepekto naman ba? Syempre hindi! Nasa Maynila pa lang kami, nakatulog na kami agad. Kaya naman nang magising ang isa sa amin-- "Haaaaa?! Nasaan na tayo?! Bakit tayo natulog?!" "Hala oo nga! Saan na 'to? Ahuhu, sayang naman hindi tayo nakapagtakutan!" "Ang ingay niyoooo, may natutulog!" --ayun, sunud-sunod nang naalimpungatan ang lahat. At dahil wala na namang kape na maiinom sa bus, halos isang oras kaming nagtitigan dahil tulog pa ang diwa namin. Sabi ng tour guide namin, nasa La Union na daw kami. Waaa! Ang layo na ng narating namin! Ilang oras ang lumipas at nabuhayan na ulit kami sa bus. Ano pa nga bang aasahan mo sa apatnapung estudyante ng hayskul? Hindi talaga kami makatitiis na hindi magligalig. At nagpatuloy kaming mag-ingay, magpaka-camwhore at hindi makinig sa tour guide hanggang sa makarating kami ng Ilocos.

Una kaming pinababa sa harap ng isang staircase. Aakyatin daw namin iyon. Tinanaw ko ang tuktok ng hagdanan--malayo. Aakyatin daw namin 'to? ang naisip ko. Pero dahil narinig ko ang pangako ng batch picture sa harap ng simbahan, inakyat ko ang nakakapagod na hagdanan papuntang Sta. Maria Church. Mala-Leaning Tower of Pisa sa Italya naman ang Sinking Bell Tower sa St. William Cathedral, ang sunod naming pinuntahan. Lumulubog ito dahil sa buhangin itinayo ang pundasyon nito imbis na sa bato o lupa. Hindi na kami nakapasok sa loob dahil late na kami sa aming iskedyul, kaya dumiretso na kami sa Bantay Church at umakyat sa kampanilya nito sa tuktok ng isang burol. Doble ang panginginig ng tuhod ko--at bakit naman hindi?! Mataas na nga ang bell tower, inilagay pa nila sa tuktok ng burol! Eh 'di mas lalong tumaas! Sabi nila ginamit daw itong watch tower noon--at sa totoo lang, na-realize kong tama naman na gamitin itong watch tower nang makarating ako sa itaas (sa wakas). Ang Paoay Church na mala-Javanese daw ang disenyo--tanda ko na dito nangyari ang ilan sa mga eksena nina Erich Gonzales at ang heartthrob na Thai na aktor na si Mario Maurer. At dahil sobrang fans ang mga kaibigan ko ni Mario Maurer, aba at ginaya pa nila ang eksena ni Erich at Mario sa harap ng simbahan! Kilig na kilig ang mga bruha--akala mo naman eh nandoon pa rin ang idol nila.

Pinuntahan din namin ang Kapurpurawan rock formation sa dulo ng Ilocos Norte. Ang lakas ng hangin mula sa dagat kahit na sobrang init ng sikat ng araw. Pero kahit ganoon, nakakamangha talaga 'yung mga bato doon kaya naman selfie dito, selfie doon; kumuha talaga kami ng tig-iisang litrato para sa Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Friendster at Google+ namin.

Trademark na rin ng rehiyon ng Ilocos ang sikat na sikat na mga windmill sa Bangui. Ga-higante talaga ang mga windmills! Kami naman ay nagmukhang mga langgan sa paanan nila, lalo na sa picture. Siguro feeling eksperto talaga sa pagkuha ng pictures, nakita ko pa ang isa kong kaklase na humiga sa buhangin at nag-selfie kasama ang mga windmill. Tindahan ng pasalubong at kung anu-ano pa sa Kalye Crisologo ang dinayo namin ngunit bukod pa roon, mai-inlove ka sa vintage na dating ng buong lugar. Pinaka-fun na yata naming ginawa ang pagsakay sa kalesa. Syempre hindi gano'n kasaya kung sumakay lang kami sa kalesa--sinulit na namin ang pagiging turista at nag-request sa kutsero na mag-drivethrough sa Jollibee. Biruan lang talaga namin 'yon kaya naman laking gulat namin nang dumaan talaga kami sa Jollibee! Tawa lang kami ng tawa hanggang sa maihatid kami ulit sa aming bus. Nakakatuwa na sinakyan nung mama 'yung kakulitan namin.

Marami pa kaming napuntahan sa tatlong araw na kami ay nasa Ilocos. Sinilip namin ang tinatawag na Malacanang of the North na medyo creepy dahil doon dati tumira ang mga Marcos. Binisita rin namin ang "labi" ni Ferdinand Marcos na naging ugat ng takutan pauwi; ang Hidden Garden na sabi pa namin noon ay hindi naman talaga "hidden"; ang Syquia Mansion kung saan nag-ambisyon pa kaming bahagi kami ng mga illustrado; at ang Juan Luna Shrine kung saan ginaya namin ng kaibigan ko ang sikat na likha ni Juan Luna, ang Spoliarum. Damang-dama ko na sa bawat lugar na aming puntahan ay ako si Donya Santibanez, at ang mga kaibigan ko naman si Facundo.

Sa pagpunta namin sa Ilocos, nagkaroon rin ako ng panibagong respeto kay Ferdinand Marcos at lalo na nang mabasa ko ito sa dyaryo: “I will forever be grateful to him (Marcos) because of his projects, such as the fishing livelihood which has nurtured my family over the years.” Pahayag iyon ng isang mangingisda na tumanggap ng benepisyo sa mga naging proyekto ni Marcos. At makikita mo naman talaga ang pag-aalaga ng mga Marcos sa Ilocos. Kaya naman nang umakyat na kami muli sa bus upang umuwi, bitbit namin hindi lang ang mga plastik ng pasalubong at marurumi naming damit, kundi pati ang kasaysayan, kultura at kagandahan ng Ilocos na hinding hindi namin maibabaon sa limot. Buti na lang pala, malaking maleta ang ipinabaon ng nanay ko.

Brif History of Bacarra Ilocos Nortebrief History of Bacarra Ilocos Norte"

...The original inhabitants of the area that was become the present day municipality of Bacarra was a sturdy and industrious race and predominantly Malays. They immigrated to the Philippines in two waves. The second wave being from the first century AD and continuing throughout the 13th century AD. It is from these immigrates of this wave that the present day residents of Bacarra are descended.     The Spaniards found that the inhabitants of the area had a distinctive character and culture such different from their fellow countrymen in the south – with different dialects although belonging to the mother tongue Tagalog, it had a different idiosyncrasies making the Ilocano dialect quite different from the Tagalog.     The name Bacarra has two legendary origins. One legend tells of a native fisherman who was out fishing in what is now known as the Bacarra River . Two Spanish soldiers promenading the place had asked the fisherman about the name of the place. Not understanding what the soldier meant, jubilantly answered “Bacbacarra, Señor”. The Spanish went away with the thought that Bacarra was the name of the place.     Another related story was the coining of a by-word of a farmer and his wife who were making big basket called “Bakar” which was used as rice basket. From these two legends, the Spaniards associated it with the town into its present name which is “BACARRA”, the same place where most of the Bacarreños now live.     Historical files state that an Igorot Baksalandok...

...BARANGAY ABLAN ECOLOGICAL PROFILE Historical Background In the olden days, long before the coming of the Spaniards, people who inhabited this place were peace-loving and hardworking. Their means of livelihood were fishing and farming due to their accessibility to the China Sea, Buraan River and river and rice lands in the Eastern part. When the Spaniards invaded the places, the natives as unsual were along the seashore gathering seashell or fishing. The Spaniards conquistadores approached an old man picking up shell and asked the name of the place. The old native who did not understand Spanish language answered, “Barat, Senor,” with his assumption that the foreigner was asking for the name of the stones that covered the seashore, from then on ,the places was named Barat which meant white rocky pebbles found along the seashore.

Top12 Ilocanos

...12 Ilocanos meticulously picked by the editorial board of The Ilocos Times, the oldest and largest newspaper in the North. 1. The Samiweng Singers (Conductors: Robert Caluya and Sherberk Cabrales) Based at the Ilocos Norte National High School, this multi-awarded choral group bagged their most prestigious feats to date:  The Gold IV award in the Folklore Category (Open Competition) and Silver Medal in the Musica Sacra Category (Champions Competition) in the 7th World Choir Games in Cincinnati, Ohio—considered the Olympics of choral competitions. Samiweng’s sister group, The Laoag City Children’s Choir, also emerged back to back Grand Champion (2011 and 2012) in the MBC Choral Competitions. More than the awards, however, it is the inspiration they give Ilocanos that really counted. Samiweng has generously shared their collective talent in various events and venues, each time triggering goosebumps and eliciting thunderous applause. 2. Governor Imee Marcos With a hands-on governor whose dynamism shows in her comprehensive programs, most notably in agriculture, trade and commerce, and tourism, Ilocos Norte today is one of the best performing provinces in the country. Her initiatives in education keep the province on track with the Millenium Development Goals. Also, Ilocanos shined this year in both sports and cultural events. Her constituents’ morale is high, and there is wide approval on the transforming  Ilocos Norte landscape. 3. Rep. Rodolfo Fariñas His highly logical...

...By Laws Unlike Articles of Incorporation, Bylaws do not need to filed with the state.  However, Bylaws are an important document that lays out how the cooperative is to be governed.  The governing body (whether it consists of an elected Board of Directors or all members of a collective[1]) must abide the Bylaws.  Typically, a cooperative’s Bylaws can only be changed by a democratic vote (or in some cases, consensus [2]) of the membership.  For this reason, cooperatives usually limit their Bylaws to fundamental governance-level issues.  More specific operational procedures may be documented in policy manuals or handbooks, which can be changed as needed by Directors, (co-)managers, committee members, staff, or other bodies using approved decision-making processes. Bylaws are organized into sections, and most sections are broken up into subsections.  In this document, only the lengthier sections are broken up into subsections for ease of reading.  However, shorter sections can benefit from being broken down as well.  Bylaws can be easily referenced when numbers or letters are assigned to sections and subsections.    ------------------------------------------------- Cooperative Bylaws should include:  I.    Mission, purpose, and legal structure   This section often includes the cooperative’s mission statement, vision statement, or stated purpose.[3]  This is also a good place to restate the information outlined in the Articles of Incorporation.  The Bylaws should agree...

To test, therefore, the effectiveness of the inmate system, the end or the objectives and the means or the strategies availed of to secure the desired end must be examined. According to A. Sarras, N.D., in today’s world Management Information System, a computerized processing system is needed in generating information for the people in the organization to meet the information needed in decision making to achieve the corporate objective of the organization. In any organization, small or big, a major portion of the time goes in data collection, processing, documenting it to the people. Hence, a major portion of the overheads goes into this kind of unproductive work in the organization. Every individual in an organization is continuously looking for some information which is needed to perform his/her task.
