After class, I wasn't able to come back home anymore because it is already the start of our SDFC, Tatak AC Module 2. We, the participants went straight to the 5th floor at Therese Emmanuel Building to finally open the Module 2 of our leadership training. Our first activity is the "trust fall". We were asked to stand on a 3 feet platform and fall on our back. Of course we landed on our co-participants' arms. After that we had our dinner and we slept early because we have to wake up at 5am the next day.
SATURDAY, 11.13.10
I got up a little earlier than my friends. I was waken up by the low temperature inside the room that in the middle of my peaceful sleep, it was disturbed because my blanket can warm my body no more. And so I have to wear my jacket. Going back to Saturday morning, after having our breakfast we board the bus and took the road going to our campsite at Bigis Camp in Rizal.
This day is jam packed. I really don't know how am I going to make the very long day of activities fit in a paragraph.
- We had a race going to the campsite. We had to use a compass to reach the place. Good thing I am knowledgeable with reading the compass.
- Our group got first in the site. We had our lunch. After a few minutes of rest, we were asked to get ready for our day-long activity.
- Our race had 9 pit stops. A some of the pit stops are really challenging and dangerous. My top 3 favorites are the catwalk (even if i wasn't able to finish it), rappelling and of course the zip-line which I had two dozes of it.
- For the dinner, we had to cook our own food. I had a hard time to put up a fire because I have already forgotten how to make it. Good thing we got help from the residents.
- We also had a bonfire. Unfortunately, it rained so we had to transfer at the hall. We had hotdogs and marshmallows! :)
- And so it is already time to sleep.
One very important thing that I learned is that my small decisions in life can greatly affect other people.
SUNDAY, 11.14.10
It is already time to say "bye-bye" to our leadership training campsite and to the people who helped us. Before leaving the site we had a little awarding program. After the program, we had our lunch. And then I find time to take a few pictures with my group mates and everyone else.
At the bus, we were able to watch Manny Pacquiao's fight against the Mexican boxer Antonio Margarito. As expected, Margarito's edge with his height did not held Manny from throwing fast punches.
Finally, we arrived at AC. My father, brother and cousin was already there waiting for me.

This is a really one of kind experience for me. Not everyone is given a chance to attend this leadership training. Luckily, I am one of those who are chosen to be a part of this event.
