TRIBU SUBAKANON AND ITS EVENTFUL ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION - October 28, 2011

Who would have thought we could go this far - keeping the friendship behind distance, differences in beliefs and outlook in life?

And after all those pressures that we’ve been through, it is with great pride to celebrate our First Year Anniversary as Tribuletz in our very own TRIBU SUBAKANON WORLD.

As the celebration went on,  marks its first year of sharing smiles, laughter, sorrows, joys, anything and everything under the sun; a series of contests were performed via online … here it goes;

GAME 1: a game sponsored by our very dear Ms. Em Tulang from the land of Elephants-THAILAND!

dai Em for game 1:

” unsa para nimo ang atong grupo “Tribu Subakanon”. (What does Tribu Subakanon group stands for you?)"

*there were at least five entries for the said competition and it was “Mr. Agapito Uraca or simply our “Kuya Ags” who emerged the winner with his definition that goes:

“para nako ang tribu subakanon usa ka grupo sa social network nga diin magka ila ila ang mga nag kalain laing personalidad nga pilipino nga naa sa lain laing nasod.og diin sila maka abi abi og maka share sa ilang mga gebati og makaila og laing mga higala aron lang mawala ang kamingaw.”-KUYA AGS

(“for me, Tribu Subakanon is a group in social network where Filipinos with different personalities wherever they may be around the globe gathered in one place to meet new friends and get-to-know each other, share feelings and emotions so to ease lonesomeness or homesickness”)  

GAME 2:” Definition of each letter in the word “TRIBU SUBAKANON” sponsored from the LAND DOWN UNDER – MS. JANE JANICE RALEIGH

Ms. Jane Janice Raliegh w/ her cute baby Jas:

Out of eleven entries submitted, it was this simple yet a definition that speaks it all by Ms. Gia Marie J. that bowed down our heads:

T – Tribe of
R – Realism and
I – Idealism in
B – Building
U – Union of friendship

S – Symbol of
U – Unity
B – Beauty
A – Acquaintanceship
K – Kindness

“Tribu Subakanon – 

One Tribe. Different People. 

Different belief. One Goal.

GAME 4: MISSION – VISION OF TRIBU SUBAKANON – a contest that signifies us as a tribe and could lead us ahead in this journey so called life …. still sponsored by our dear “Metring J.”

TRIBU SUBAKANON – A YEAR AFTER

As mentioned in my previous blog, Tribu Subakanon was founded last October 28, 2010, time does fly unnoticed, and I am very proud to say that we are now celebrating our FIRST YEAR ANNIVERSARY!  Congratulations to each and every tribuletz (as we call ourselves) and good luck for the years beyond! But wait, how is Tribu Subakanon a year after?

Tribu Subakanon world is still very much the same; its inhabitants still meet online, sharing joy and laughers and useful or educational information as well. Though some of its original tribuletz choose to be outside tribu’s arms, the friendship that binds us is still very much intact and getting stronger as we get to know each other well.

                                       *some of the unforgettable tribuletz moments*

For a year we’ve been together for all those special days that we can join hand in hand to celebrate the moment. And it was Christmas that was the most unforgettable to me so far. What made it memorable? It was simply the first time when we seemed to be under the spell—the friendship which unites us, come together, and share that precious moment. Such works of a genuine friendship!

After a year of sharing genuine online friendship as a tribe, we now have a more concrete definition of what Tribu Subakanon stands for, it’s meaning in our own individual lives, and the essence of this tribe in the online community.

Thus we now define Tribu Subakanon as:

T – Tribe of

R – Realism and

I – Idealism in

B – Building

U – Union of friendship

S – Symbol of

U – Unity

B – Beauty

A – Acquaintanceship

K – Kindness

A – Acceptance

N – Nobleness

O – Openness that

N – Never ends …

….with a Mission that states:

“To implement the good ethics in life to become a better individual through the ideals of respect, love, compassion and humility so as to promote peace and unity.”

…and vision that says:

“By its prospect, Tribu Subakanon will be a group of innovative individual unified with great aspiration and united with one Faith, one God Almighty.”

Once again happy birthday Tribu Subakanon! And happy 1^st anniversary tribuletz! Kudos everyone! I am very much proud to be a part of this online group who now live by it’s motto:

“Tribu Subakanon – 

One Tribe. Different People. 

Different belief. One Goal.

We Are One" 

MY WOODEN YEAR @ HOS!

Looking back….

I was a study now pay later scholar way back in college at Asian College of Technology, taking up BS Computer Science, unfortunately, I only finished a year since I no longer had resources to pursue my studies, and I already consumed my credit line from school. I then decide to look for a job, but then it wasn’t that easy. There was a point when I even applied at a certain agency as domestic helper for Manila.

Then, September 2006 come, after 5 months of searching I received a call from HOS Corporation where I applied as service crew for my interview. It was September 2, 2006 to be exact when Maam Dianne Pascua called me up for my interview by the following day September 3, 2011. (I took it as a blessing in disguise since I was partly heartbroken at that time.)

To shorten the story, it was in September 6, 2006 when I started as trainee as service crew @ Hotdog on Sticks – Robinsons Place Cebu and was trained by Mayolyn Mandado. And it was on October 24, 2006 when I was officially hired as service crew at HOS CEBU!

My deepest gratitude to HOS Corporation for making some of my dreams into reality! Most of all to Sir Andy (de Leon) and Sir Rene as well for believing in my capability. I wasn't able to finish a degree but still they gave me this break. And was given the chance to roam around some parts of the Philippines! ( and letting me ride an airplane! haahahhahahaha!). I never thought I would last this long,couldn't count no more how many P.I  I received,but then still  here I am as solid as a wood still part of this company that fed me and my family for five years now as well as mold me as a better person.

My journey in this company may not have been a bed of roses, still I am very much grateful for those experiences, for without that I wouldn't who I am now. A little lady of confidence and courage ,though it may not be in all aspect but I must say I grew up.To everyone I met, and I've known like Maam Jo Plariza - who back then trained and formed my mind for admin works, including some HR functions ( proud to say..heheh), Maam Mie - who was there at the crucial moment of my employment @ HOS.Thank you so much!

It would be a great pleasure if in the next 5 years, I will still be here,however if it would be the other way around, Hotdog on Sticks will always have a special place in my heart!

"To my great God! thank you very much, for always being there with me and for answering my prayers.You truly is an AMAZING GOD!!!<3<3<3 "

HAPPY 5th year Anniversary to me!!!!!! Tibay mo teh!!!!

To the Woman I Ever Love

Life may have not been so kind to us
Our ties may have been stained by indefference
Still it doesn't belittle the woman you are to me
For I wouldn't be who I am today
If you didn't carry me inside for nine months long

We may choose to be in different directions
And that dark clouds hinder our sight
One thing for sure, I will be always here
Waiting for that woman I ever love

Happy birthday Mama!

WORLD TEACHERS’ DAY: A PART OF ME WAS A PIECE OF YOU

A tribute to my mentors who have great impact in me.

It was my childhood dream to become a teacher. During my younger years or during my primary education, in almost every classroom you can read this line: “Be proud you are a teacher, the future depends in you”. Isn’t that a pride? Back then I would always play the teacher in our game with my cousins, I love checking their papers and put 100 as their mark.

As I grow up I realized how difficult it is to be a teacher, most especially if you are assigned in the mountain barangays like ours way back years ago, where there was only one passenger jeep that goes to town every Friday, therefore a teacher in our barangay could only spend Saturdays & Sundays at their home, technically you will leave your family behind. And such is a great sacrifice! I, then change my plan.

Top mentors who had helped me build my identity and my dreams:

1. Mrs Deirdre Romarate Arias or simply our Maam Indai

She was my school adviser back in grade three and six. I thought after graduation our connection will stop there, but it didn’t. She helped us (top 5 in our class) apply for a scholarship program at a certain mining company in our town. She was really hands on with it, from our examination then to our interview. She shoulders all the expenses for our requirements and our food also when we stayed in their house prior to examination and interview. Luckily two of us pass the examination & interview and enjoyed the scholarship in high school (among the top 5 in our class, only three of us applied the scholarship).A big thank you Maam Indai. J

    2. Sir Proceso Arias or Sir Procy

 

He was my fourth grade adviser who taught or shall I say give me an idea about computer, when I decided I don’t want to be a teacher anymore when I grow up.

One time in our English class on my fourth grade, we were told to write about our ambition in life for our formal theme. I thought, I don’t wanna be a teacher anymore, so I ask my teacher: Sir Proceso Arias what kind of profession that deals with computer ( note: I haven’t seen one yet that time, only heard it in a radio), then he said just write their computer programming. Without any knowledge of what course is, I wrote I want to be a computer programmer. (Sadly, I wasn’t able to realize that dream, but I did take up Computer Science when I studied in college.)

3. Maam Marijean Inion

My class adviser when I was a sophomore student. It was a struggle year for me; it was when our family was on the rocks. There were times when I am physically present in her discussion but mentally absent. Thank God she was very understanding to me.

4. Maam Leonarda Ompoc

My teacher in my first grade. Way back in grade one, I was really hard headed, and the most talkative in class but when asked to read so quite (unfortunately because I don’t know how to read..hehe). She really disciplined not only me but the whole class. Now as I look back I am astonished of her technique in handling pupils; imagine teaching two levels in the same classroom. True! She handled grade one and 2 at that time. After our afternoon meal, we are not allowed to play outside, commanded us to practice reading, the grade two pupils will teach the grade one.

Thank you for that discipline Maam Ompoc!

I must say, I was so blessed to have them as my teacher who does not only taught us with our school lessons but also encourage us to dream by sharing us their life and what they had been through to become our teacher. Thanks for that inspiration, it was indeed a great help especially to me. Living in a mountain barangay is no heaven, for us to be in school we had to walk at least 2km everyday, but we made it through the help of our dearest teachers.

HAPPY TEACHERS’ MONTH! A STANDING OVATION TO ALL OF YOU!

Point of Realization: "When can you say that you have moved on and accepted the fact that it's over?

It has been around six years or almost since my parents choose to continue their journey not in each others arms. For that period of time, I thought I had accepted it already with all my heart--- that's it! As a matter of fact - bitter truth, I stop praying and asking God about their reconciliation, it's not because I feel hopeless about it and I want to quit the fight. It is simply because I feel  within that it's time to let go most especially when Mama found someone.It hurts so much but then who am I to stop her,yes I am her daughter but it does not give me the authority to oppress her happiness, that would be so selfish of me  and  unfair to Mama .With that realization I thought I had fully accepted our situation and I can do nothing about it anymore. I was then able to pick up the broken pieces of me and had started my life again, but still I haven't got the courage to approach Mama.Whether it is of pride or fear that I feel, I can't fully explain. Until I got the chance to visit my hometown again. With my vacation I thought God gave me that time to somehow break the ice between me and Mama, I was thinking I can face her, after all she is my mother and I wouldn't be here if not because of her.In my heart I am hoping that it will be okay.

Unfortunately, when I saw Mama with her other man, there's seems a little pin inside my heart- heartbeat so irregular that I thought I might have my hyperventilation attack again. Right then, I just turn away as if I haven't seen them.I just told myself, if it is the right time then it will happen.For now I only wish it won't be late by the time I will be able to defeat my cowardice ---my pride.

At one point in our life we thought we had moved on and accepted that it is all over but then there that little space deep in our hearts where doubts, pride, fear dwell that constrain us from doing what must have to be done by the time we are given the chance to face it.But still I strongly believe that soon my prayers will be answered, and everything happens for a reason.

service crew

today memories are flashing left and right across my mind as i was assigned to manned in our special event. at usjr basak campus -  intramural, about five years ago i was introduce into sales. i wasn't thinking that i could last in that kind of job - being a service crew / sales lady.others may think it's just easy however the odd thing about it if you worked in our company is: you have to bark.yes as in bark like a dog to attract customers.i once asked,what's the use of shouting out our product? if the customer is really up to buy your product i thought no need to push it as if it is not the salable type specially in food business.but as days goes by, i realized it is a plus factor.

it is always a fun recalling my first day as a trainee service crew: though the feeling was really awkward, just imagine shouting inside the mall.but then i made it i was able to do it, but at first i  hid myself behind the ice tea dispenser. as days run  i became comfortable with it that even when i am just slicing hotdogs or hotdog buns my mouth will just open unintentionally shouting "hotdog on sticks----nathans hotdog!".there was even a time when i was riding in a jeepney, instead of saying "lugar lang" what i said was: "hotdog on sticks",as in! it was no joke!, all eyes of passenger was staring at me. i was a bit shy about it, but i just ended laughing at myself quietly.

to date i could say my being a service crew was the most rewarding part of my career.("career talaga! as if i have one!...hehehe" ).what i really like being one is that happiness i felt inside every time i got a compliment from my dear customers who get satisfied with my service,and of course the "TIP" is included in, the music to my ear when they called me by first name.and when your "suki" would look for you when you are not around in your station. it is in this field when you got the chance to meet people from different walks of life that make it more exciting and fun. i am grateful that in this journey i have been there. i am thankful because it was the phase when my personality was developed. who i am today was because of what i've been through yesterday.

and today, i was able to experience it again! i had a tiring yet fun filled day! i was able to hear those  sweet word :"ate" again. and it was really, really fun, i was able to escape the boredom  of  facing all those papers for a day!:-)

the face 4 years ago - i miss this uniform and the place

Why Do We HAve to Say Goodbye?

As I lay me in bed and close my eyes tonight
Pictures of you and me so happy with each other
Back in the days when we were still together
Those days when love is so tender and tight

Now you were there, searching for yourself
And here I am leaving ,still so much in to you
Is  this what love perfectly made in heaven?
Or are our feelings not strong enough

Why do we have to say goodbye
When I was the one you dreamed of
And you were my answered prayer
Where does our love take us now?

Why do we have to say goodbye
If our heart still beat as one?
Why do we have to take different path
If we are for each other?

Why do we have to say goodbye
If we still have this love
Isn't our love that enough
To fill all the empty spaces in us?

Can somebody tell me,
why do we have to say goodbye...</.3

Hanggang Kailan Aasa Ang Puso?

*bunga sa kasingkasing samaran ug daw nawad an na sa paglaom ug sa nagsalimuang nga panghunahuna*---ahehehehe----: = )

Minsan may isang hangal

Tanging hangad lamang

Ay ang isang magmamahal

Isang pag ibig na wagas at walang hanggan

Subalit kapalara’y sadyang mapaglaro

Puso’y hinayaang masaktan at mabigo

Iniwanan nat pnagpalit sa iba

Matapos maibigay ang buong puso

Mga mata’y  tila tuyo na sa luha

Pero puso’y nagpupumiglas pa rin

Umaasa’t nag aasam na  darating din

Ang siyang tanging nakalaan

Kahit pa tila nilimot na ng tadhana.

This is a continuation of my self proclaim "Inspirational Day". I was really thinking of composing a song, unfortunately haven't found yet the inspiration and mode to make one.

My Self Proclaim "Inspirational Day"

August 12,2011

My not - so - lucky, not- so - fortunate-day.Haven't close any transactions I ever started, too sad, but instead of dwelling on the sad thought I had decided to declare this day as my official "Inspirational Day", as the saying goes: "Make stepping stones out of stumbling block".

And so I searched and scanned for inspirational quotes to make up day.

"The fact is that in order to do any thing in this world worth doing, we must not stand shivering on the bank thinking of the cold and the danger, but jump in and scramble through as well as we can."

~Sydney Smith~

"Success does not consist in never making blunders, but in never making the same one the second time".

~H. W. Shaw~

"There is no royal road to anything. One thing at a time, all things in succession. That which grows fast, withers as rapidly. That which grows slowly, endures."

~Josiah Gilbert Holland~
"The great thing in this world is not so much where you stand, as in what direction you are moving."

~Oliver Wendell Holmes~

"It is with many enterprises as with striking fire; we do not meet with success except by reiterated efforts, and often at the instant when we despaired of success."

~Francoise de Maintenon~



"be willing to take a job at a lower level than what you may be entitled to,but in an area you love,and your passion will propel you forward.Don't let a setback stop you from pushing ahead " and now I was thinking about what I love to do..;-/..I came here and I thought I finally found it~but I guess I was wrong~but instead of grousing or feeling guilty about a misstep I have made, I know I can still come out ahead if I put my head down and push forward."

- copied from Rachel Mocoy-

Dreams are a big part of our Lives
And You must do whatever it takes

To make them a Reality;
By the plans you make,
The course you take,
And the things you do.

Don't dwell on past mistakes.
Leave yesterday behind,
Along with all it's problems,
Worries and doubts.

Realize you can't change the past,
But you can start a new tomorrow.

Don't try to do everything at once;
Take one step at a time,
Don't ever be afraid to try the Impossible
No matter what others may think.

Remember you are Unique
In your own special way.

Don't ever stop Dreaming!
 via Mohammed Ashfaq

"Pain and heartbreak are just God's way of saying: " I want you to how to be stronger and be patient until you meet the right one"

~The Notebook~

Special thanks to some of my fb friends for the borrowed quotes I copied from their wall , that was it my self proclaimed " Inspirational Day" plus a bonus for tonight I learned a new word from Ate Jane Janice Raliegh co-tribe @ Tribu Subakanon, and that was "daylight saving time".

Somehow..my day still ends up with a smile..:-) :-),:-)

Wishing for a more productive weekend!!!

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY PAPA

Words aren't enough to express
How grateful I am to God Almighty
For giving me one of the best gifts in life
That is a FATHER  like you
You provide me everything I want
Without spoiling me
You teach me not through your words
Yet through your actions

Thank you for believing in me
For trusting the decisions I made
For letting me live my life
The way I want it to be
Without allowing me to run into no where

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY PAPA!!!!

PAPA WITH MY YOUNGER BROTHERS AND NEPHEW

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY

BACK TO SCHOOL MANIA

It's school time again...woooaaaaahhh! I miss school so much :(
But at least I had this one day to reminisce my school life.After my afternoon routine I took this chance to sneak out from work and went shopping for school supplies, to which I enjoy so much.And as I went on with my so called school-supplies-shopping these were what caught my eye:

a certain man carefully scrutinizing the bag as the promo laid down his best sales talk ever....

             (this reminds me of my service crew days----my earlier life....oh how I miss dealing with different

              people from different walks of life)

                                ladies busy with all these notebooks...back in time what I love about my notebooks 

  are the pictures of my favorite celebrity...

and how about these kids.......(oh!never been to like this when I was a kid,

                          we just purchase our school supplies from a nearby market-)

                                        what supposed to be the dialogue of this pic?,perhaps it goes like this:

                                         "Mama sige na paliti ko ani bag o uniform ba"!

                             this one's my favorite: I just wonder why this "papa' went shopping for school  supplies,

                             usually it is the mother right? but nevertheless :Bravo to this father!And speaking of father,

                             June is actually a "Father's Month".Advance Happy Father's Day to all the Tatay,Papa,

                            Papang, Papsy, Daddy in the whole wide universe, specially to my dearest Papa Anor!!!

                                   and what about these three ladies....reminds me of my high school days

                         I love binder notebooks back in those days, well actually that was the "IN" thing that time

"Ahem, Nay ano po hinahanap nyo?

                   what about this one?:"Ineng double check mo nga kung wala na tayong nakaligtaan".

I also have my own requirements-list, not for me but for my sisters who are thank God in high school now..(konting tiis na lang ..at makapagtapos na rin sila)

                                          and this has been my school supplies basket........
And finally, the sneak out was perfect and so enjoying.. Too bad I can't bring along my sisters with me, must be more enjoyable bonding moment if they're with me.But anyway,there's still another time to bond with them.So this has been me..now reporting back to work..hahahahaha!And before this blog ends: wanna share my favorite quote when I was in my elementary years that I always wrote in every front page of my notebook.
And it goes like this:

  "STUDY FIRST BEFORE YOU ENTER THE KINGDOM OF LOVE"

FORBIDDEN LOVE -(LYRICS BY MADONNA)

I don’t, don’t care if it’s not right
To have your arms around me
I want, to feel what it’s like
Take all of you inside of me

Chorus:
In your eyes (in your eyes)
Forbidden Love
In your smile (in your smile)
Forbidden Love
In your kiss (in your kiss),
Forbidden Love
If I had one wish,
Love would feel like this (Love would feel like this)

I know, that you’re no good for me
That’s why I feel I must confess
What’s wrong, is why it feels so right
I want to feel your sweet caress

(Chorus)

If I only had one wish,
Love would always feel like this
Wishin’ on the stars above,
Forbidden Love

If I only had one dream,
This would be more than it seems.
Forbidden Love (forbidden Love)

Rejection, is the greatest aphrodisiac (whispered)

(Chorus)x2

Love should always feel like this
Heaven forgive me, never forbid me
Love should always feel like this

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
                                               FORBIDDEN LOVE STORY

<3 I'm married but physically and emotionally attracted to another man. Have been married 28 years, married young and then this man walks into my life..I feel like I've lost my mind. <3

---------waiting for the end result of our true love-------

<3 'I'm married and so is he. We met at work, both in a rough time in our life. The times we can be together are special, it kills us to be apart but there are kids involved so for now we pretend we are just friends'. this is same as my situation we both are now in our early 40's. we love each other but we know our world is different. <3

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Have you ever wonder why everything forbidden are the sweetest?What is with that?Is it a statement of fact or it's just psychological thing? Ouucccccccccchhhhhhh! this gave me headache! Wish I could find the answers soon as I continue with my endless quest.

GOOD LUCK TO ME, MYSELF AND I

PRO RH BILL - a reply to our tribe poll

In my simple point of view - the way I understand it:

True enough RH Bill promotes the use of artificial or modern family planning methods and supplies, however it does not prohibits us, Filipino citizen to choose the natural way.

I believe that this bill wants to promote a good quality life and right to proper health care for the Filipino citizens, for it aims to educate specially the poor and those living in the most remote parts of our country because we can’t deny the fact that they are fully equipped with enough knowledge (though not all) with the proper use of natural or modern family planning method, thus promoting responsible parenthood.

and let me quote some of it's guiding principles that help me decide:

SECTION 3: GUIDING PRINCIPLES

1."Freedom of choice, which is central to the exercise of right, must be fully guaranteed by the State;"

3."The State shall promote, without bias, all effective natural and modern methods of family planning that are medically safe and legal;"

9."While this Act recognizes that abortion is illegal and punishable by law, the government shall ensure that all women needing care for post-abortion complications shall be treated and counseled in a humane, non-judgmental and compassionate manner;"

11."Gender equality and women empowerment are central elements of reproductive health and population and development;"


How about you?What are your thoughts about RH BILL? Lemme know...

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY MAMA

I wish to hug you tight, whisper I love you sweetly

And say: Happy Mother’s Day Mama so dearly..

But space don’t allow me from doing so

Though space won’t allow me to tell you directly,

Still, it doesn’t prevent me from writing this piece

For me to express how grateful to God I am

For giving me someone like you!

Yes, it’s true! You may not be the mother,

That someone would envy me to have a mama like you,

I may not display my affection to you

But deep in my heart I want you to know:

That no matter what had happen, what will happen

If I had a time machine, to go back to time I was born

I will ask God for you to be my mama,

For I will never be who I am and never be this strong

To face each trial I had encounter

If I wasn’t molded by the experiences

I’ve been through with you Mama

I love you so much Mama!

Hope you still feel it deep inside

I may not be able to understand why it has to be like that

But in due time, when all the wounds heal

I know that space will be deleted

HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY MAMA!<3<3<3

MY ONLINE WORLD - PART TWO - MY JOURNEY WITH TRIBU SUBAKANON

“ A journey of a thousand miles must begins with a single step”

It all started somewhere in Doha, Qatar  on October 28, 2010 at around 5:00 PM (Doha Time – wonder what time is it here in Pinas- arrghh! My arithmetic mind doesn’t work time..tsk!tsk!), when an idea of creating a group page on FB pop up in the Genius Mind of our dear Admin.

And with a BIIIIIGGGGGGGGG BANG! TRIBU SUBAKANON was born! A simple FB group that started with more or less 30 members.

Wonder about these ladies? They’re just the first to post and made comments. Figured it out? As much as I wanted to dig the first post, huhuhhuhu! I just really can’t. My goodness! I need to back track atleast 4000 posts! (Keri nyo yun??)

It was until  Ms Alicia Debuayan Yanquin was asked to join the tribe that gave birth  the mother of the tribe  to whom we now  refer as “Mader A”.

MS. ALICIA YANQUIN

Days go by, more and more members were added........

..........until then I stepped into the scene which marked the beginning of my colorful online journey.

As the tribe continues its journey more and more developments were made until the idea of creating TRIBE LOGO came out. And to add color to the brainstorming of what the design must be: “TRIBE LOGO MAKING CONSTEST”, with a real price of course not virtual anymore was then conceptualized. Noticed where that single step lead us? There it goes: ideas flashing and these designs were made out of that artistic and creative side of our tribe.

But then in every contest, only one winner must emerge. Since these designs were made by  fellow tribuletz, choosing the logo for the tribe was done through voting.Until, finally the winner has been selected and posted.

And the winner is…………tadaaaaaaaaaaaaa…………!

Hats off to Mr. Danny Jasper  for the wonderful creation! Kudos Sir!Now I know whom to call if I need a graphic artist!..(chos!)

Tribe has become livelier as more and more members are added each and every day. Yet we were busy with in the tribe, still we did not forget how the tribe emerged, once in a while we also visit ENERGY FM CEBU page.

Yet attached to online world we created, we still value the importance of strengthening the friendship that ties us through social and special gatherings in flesh.. It was sometime in December 2010 when we planned and push through our “FIRST ONLINE GALA NIGHT along with FIRST TRIBU SUBAKANON CHRISTMAS PARTY w/ ENERGY FM CEBU

Oh  my! Where are we on our journey?Awwts! Am I lost???...( chos lang! arrrggghhh! Am lost for words….)

Time flies stealthily, 2010 bid goodbye in our calendar but then opens the door for 2011.

Again another year for the tribe, which means another milestone in our journey as a family in our online world. Though we have been to some rough road, thanks to God for we still manage to make it through, others chose a separate field and continue their journey on their own. We had celebrated our first monthsary, second, third, fourth and fifth.  

                

Though there are times when our friendship within the tribe comes across rough roads as we continue with our journey, I am proud to say that our bond has its own magical way to iron things out. And it was only last April 21,2011 when another first for the tribuletz took place @ Blu Ref Beach Resort in MArigondon, LApu-lapu.The said event thus, strengthen the bond between the tribe members as we are about to celebrate our sixth monthsary.

As of this writing from atleast 30 different individual, now we’re almost 200 link together as one family with different outlook in life. This is indeed an awesome journey!  Oh I almost forgot we had just celebrated our sixth monthsary just this 28^th of April 2011, we also have our FANPAGE now – TRIBU SUBAKANON!.And I’m proud enough of myself that I am still part of this online friendship in this online world.Hey! I’ve been talking too much, rather writing too much, so bad of me! I thought I broke that pop to spell out the brains behind TRIBU SUBAKANON.Well!..well!..FRIENDS….LADIES AND GENTLEMAN, THERE SHE IS, OUR VERY OWN  ADMIN…. OUR ATE ANNE!

        SPECIAL CITATION GOES TO ENERGY FM CEBU STAFFS…..AND A SPECIAL THANKS TO MY KA TRIBU FOR ALL THE PICS I USED.
