Little Lulu Treasures I was cleaning my files in Little Lulu (my college laptop, a 10-inch MSI netbook) when I ran into little treasures that made me smile. Old photos, letters, funny college projects. Guess all these can be posted in a blog series.

For the first treasure, we have the Coalescence poster. Coalescence was one of the biggest initiatives of my org, the Organizational Communication Society, in my term. Since we knew that there is also the Organizational Communication program in DLSU, we decided to team up with their org, the Team Communication, to prepare a meet-up session. So after all those preparation, we finally had that much awaited two-day seminar with culminating activity, all for the OrCom undergrads! 

It was pretty cool working with a different org from a different school. Despite the differences in org culture, we united and worked together. Really proud we pulled it off!

Funnel Cakes will be one of the food concessionaires at the upcoming event called the "OrCom Week"  held by the official organization of the BA Organizational Communication program at the University of the Philippines MANILA. 

      We are more than excited to be a part of their 5-day food fair which will be on the 24th until the 28th of September! Yipee!!  Our carnival-themed cart together with the rest of the food stalls will be positioned at the heart of the College of Arts and Sciences located at Padre Faura, Manila (next to the Department of Justice building). Big cheers to all UP Manila students! See you there!

I attended the OrCom Night 2010 last night because I was invited to judge. Though even though I was not really invited, I think I would really drop by.

Of course, it's OrComSoc. (NO WINKS. I'M DEAD SERIOUS. :P)

So while the emcees were killing time because they were waiting for the grades to be computed, they asked the judges some pretty good questions. I forget what they asked the other judges but here's what they asked me.

"How would you describe the whole OrCom experience in college?"

Which they eventually changed to this: "Describe your whole OrCom experience in one word."

So I said:

"Awesome. My four-year stay in UP Manila as an Organizational Communication student is nothing but awesome."

But it still didn't describe it.

"Or complete?"

But it still damn didn't.

Oh will I let my good mother course down? I've had the best experience in acads, extra curr (org) and extra extra curr (party) life being in this degree program and I described it as that totally failure of "word production".

Oh I so couldn't let such shit.

So I went like this:

I think it's really difficult to describe it in one word. Let me describe it with this: My whole OrCom experience has totally been awesome and complete in such way that it felt like I was living my life... in college. Everything felt natural. I didn't really feel that I was studying because the total learning experience was fun. I liked it a lot and it didn't feel like I was loaded with readings and stuff to read that I disliked. It's the best experience ever.

And then I was contented.
