Its More Fun in the Library


                Library is very useful facility in every student. The library helps a good deal in spreading knowledge and education. It is the appropriate place where we can study our notes, doing our research works and where we can borrow books anytime. The library is located below the University Chapel. I spend my time in the library during my vacant hours. In the library, there is no disturbance and everybody can read with rapt attention. Aside from studying and reading books, the usual thing that we do with my friends and classmates is talking, beautifying ourselves and enjoying the good ventilation that pampers our skin. The freezy aircon that comforts me and turn me to sleep right away.  Library offers a wide variety of choices. The library was divided into sections or areas such as Reference section, Circulation Section, Discussion area and Periodical section .






The Reference section contains books such as:  Encyclopedias, Dictionaries, Atlases, Gazetteers, Biographical Directories, Almanacs, Yearbooks, Pamphlets and also includes Filipiniana,Augustiniana, Panayana, Rizaliana and Undergraduate Theses. Some people study in the library and some would like to borrow books to read at home. 






Circulation area contains of books to be borrowed, one can easily borrow the book of one’s choice. Fine is charged when books are not returned on time as stated in the library rules. If we have books that we would like to search we can easily locate it through OPAC or Online Public Access Catalog, an online database of materials held by a library or group of libraries. Users search a library catalog principally to locate books and other material available at a library.




Discussion area in which a group of  students can have a group study. Lastly is the Periodical section that contains newspapers, magazines and etc. We also have a Graduate School and Law Library located at the 2nd floor of CAS Building. For my four years of struggling in this University,there is always be a library I know like a person- politely quiet but endlessly informative,amazingly knowledgeable but charmingly discreet,open to everyone yet subject to your every whim,and sadly,flammable if one isn't careful because library is the place where i can get all what I want in my studies additional materials to support  my studies and easy methods in solving problems. And there is a saying that Without Libraries,we have no past and no future.

Agustinian Youth Day 2014





The University of San Agustin gathered all together to celebrate Augustinian Youth Day every August 28. This celebration commemorates the death of St. Augustine.



 
Every year the university prepared many programs and activity for the students. 


We started our celebration with the mass in the covered gym together with our fellow students, faculties and the University Administrators and fathers.





After the mass there is a Sad-Sad sa San –ag and CMA cheer dancers were             participating and other departments.



The representatives of intramurals 2014 are holding the banner for which department they are belong. CMA cheer dancers have lively performance and there is always a smile in their faces.






            




I saw my friend Melissa and I decided to go with her.


           



As part of the Augustinian Youth Day, we are required by our teacher Miss Raylos to distribute bookmarks to all Augustinian students. Our team is assigned at the admin area and I find it easy to give away of bookmarks but we can’t avoid instances that you can meet people who will reject you and still you have to give your biggest smile as an approach. After distributing bookmarks we took pictures as a proof. For me it was fun and at the same time it’s a challenging activity that measures my patience. There is an exhibit of product testing in front of Admin building so we try to test it in every kiosk. I enjoyed to try their products because they are innovative enough to make their own version of their products. I avail free taste of Choco Ala Doughnut that taste so delicious and it is my first time to taste it. But of course, there is always a partner for that and we avail coke for free. We wash our hands with their Avocado soap that is pure avocado and glycerin to moisturize skin, but I don’t find it innovative because it has no scent and there are many products of herbal soaps are already available in the market.




 I decided not to join in Salo-Salo fiesta because my friends don’t want to join to. Instead, we go to Robinson’s mall and have our lunch at Jollibee. After that, we arrived at school to attend the remaining programs after all we decided not to attend, instead we took pictures with wacky poses and it was a blast.

Moringa o2’s Malunggay herbal soap


            Moringa o2’s Malunggay herbal soap boasts about its Anti-aging and Anti-Oxidant agents to promote nourished and cleansed skin. Because its an all-natural soap, it helps slow down signs of aging, promotes cell regeneration, anti bacterial and acne fighters, deodorizing, skin lightening and improves the overall condition of your skin. I bought the smaller soap (60g) since I want to try it out first if it's good for my skin and it costs P50.00 from Watsons. Malunggay Herbal Soap is for the face and body. When I took it out from the box, I smelled it and I'm in love with its scent. However, the smell doesn't linger for long. The soap itself looks good. It seems to be very natural and relaxing. The color of the soap is also not too dark. It is even lighter than the natural leaves of malunggay. It actually relieves itch. I actually find drastic change on my skin while using the product in a span of more than a week. It doesn’t melt easily unlike other herbal soaps and it is affordable and locally available. I like testing soaps that work best for my skin, sometimes I stick to one when I notice immediate results. I washed my face last night using it and it feels gentle on the skin as I rub my face in circular motion. After rinsing off the soap, I felt just a wee bit of tightening but nothing like that dry and harsh feeling that I get from the bar soaps that I've previously tried. I love it! And my face didn't feel like super matte and dry. My skin feels supple.




Love at First Sight

    
 
            Way back in 2010, im really young girl, 15 years old. I remember that day when I was in the corridor with my bestfriend Victoria going up stairs and the thing is I saw this cute guy and I blushed. When we saw each other for the first time, we both knew there was something. My heart races just the thought of him. My stomach felt butterflies for the first time. I met Paul, through friends. Victoria my bestfriend set us up. All mine and his friends know I like him and they try to give him a little hints like “I know the girl who likes you! “ and my friends started to tease us. I always think about him if I’m alone, I can’t even sleep because I constantly think of him. Everytime I’m online in facebook I hoped it was him chatting me to see how I was or what I was doing. The day kept running and I always find a way to see him everyday, even in a small way can make my day complete.

 I talked to him once in personal and he said that we will meet and talk again tomorrow because he would rather asked me something special and I really messed up because I was nervous that time. I don’t know what to do, what if he’s not what I think he is? But what if I am missing out, but again what if I am not in love and it’s all an illusion? But then again, my love for him was prevalent. Until that day on December 17, 2010 he courted me, and I answered yes. Maybe I’m also afraid of losing him. Our relationship has been wonderful all this time. He has always been with me through a lot of personal things I was going through, always cheering me up and always there for me. It’s amazing how much we look forward to spending time together. He seems very compassionate, understanding & he certainly has a way with words. When we are together, I always want to have something to share or to talk about like reminiscing the past and talking about our plans in the future to strengthen our relationship.


I have learn this thing that inspires me that if you’re in love most of the time you are too busy seeing how great he is more than his small imperfections. That kind of mutual support and communication becomes really important as you encounter challenges in your lives and your relationship.
