Seminar on Women in Crisis

I’m staying here in Mapayapa Village, Quezon City. This is the same place where I attended my college retreat before. However, I am not here on a retreat but on a seminar on Women in Crisis. As one of the Board of Trusty of a Deaf organization called Filipino Deaf Women Health and Crisis Center in the Philippines., I had to part take in this three day seminar. Everything is FREE! From our transportation expenses, lodging, food and materials necessary to use during the seminar. We also have a certificate of attendance after the training.

When I first joined the organization, I had no idea what Jen and Flor were talking about. Even Rachel who tried to explain what the organization is all about could not help me clearly understand the purpose. So they told me to come and see for myself. I thought about it for a bit and maybe it would be better to come with them and forget about my date on that day. So, I went despite on the way my date was calling me on my cellphone and asking where I am. Well, to hell with him! I decide it will be worth going to this organization and become a part of it than go out with the guy who is actually a two-timer! The girls and I went to a place near Edsa, where they were having the very first meeting of the organization. It was so surprising who are supporting and members of this organization. Some of my colleagues are members and a few others I know who does incredible work on Deaf organizations. Even Dr. Martinez is part of the organization…. In the beginning we would meet every first Saturday to discuss plans and other agenda. At first we have no place to meet and we would just meet in Starbucks Coffee Shops and later I volunteered to have the meeting in my place until they found an area in Philippines Federation of the Deaf‘s office. Raffy the former president of PFD helped us organize our meeting when we moved in. The organization’s first plan is to organize a seminar hence we are here in Mapayapa Village, today… I shared a room with Flor and across our room is Jen and a hearing person from another organization who also support Abused Women and Children’s group.
The seminar is a very enriching experience. I gained a lot of insight and what I should do in such cases of rape and abuse. I also learned and understood the laws now including the new ones that were passed or approved in he Senate bill… I cannot say or go much in details of what we had discussed here as it should be highly confidential. What I cannot forget though was the open discussion and in the end we were given some important copies of documents that we will need in advocating Women’s Rights and in helping victims of rape and abuse.

Dinner at Italianni’s



After we distributed the Academic Performance Report during the Parents and Teachers’ conference, my two colleagues and I decided to go out; have dinner and watch a movie in Glorietta. We left after we addresse the parents’ concerns regarding their child’s performance in school. There was still an ongoing talk when we left by sneaking out one by one, pretending we are hungry and will just grab a bite in the canteen. Our Academic coordinator even tried to stop us by asking where we are going and each of us made our own excuses. LOL!


We finally escaped and boarded Claire’s car and off we went to Glorietta. It was exciting when we got there and walked around the malls. Miggy and I can’t help rating good-looking guys we saw around. Clarice would giggle sometimes and even had the nerve to point out on some guys. Hahaha! We went to the cinema and got our tickets. The movie wont be starting yet till 7:30 so we decided to eat dinner early. We again walked around Glorietta Malls looking for a place to dine in. Claire wanted a salad and Miggy wanted “anything edible and tasty.” The way he told us with emphasis on what he wants made me and Claire raise our eyebrows. Anyway, I spotted Italianni’s and I pointed it to them and told them I fancy dining Italian. Both of them agreed and we went in. We ordered a cesar salad, fettucini, pizza and bottom less iced tea.


The food was TERRIFIC! From the salad to the fettucini and pizza. We were so quiet and busy eating that we didn’t even bother to comment how great the food tasted! I think because each of us is watching each others’ serving, particularly over the pizza. HAHAHA! The food came one by one though so we really had our time eating. We even stayed awhile and watched other people eat and chat. I even saw a good looking guy across our table at the back. But when Claire and Miggy looked at the guy, Miggy said: “YUCK!He is gay!” “WHAT?” I was in disbelief at what he said. "How do you know?" I asked. Miggy said,“Because he is only wearing an undershirt. No men would dare go out like that except gay!” Claire agreed with him. So, there! something new that's truly educational I just learned today aside having my stomach full. We left Italiani’s and walked some more around the mall. Miggy was looking for a new cellphone and I was really having a hard time keeping up with them to avoid getting lost in the crowd. I was so full, I could hardly breath. Ugh! When we got to a Globe store, I sat down with Claire at the customer waiting area and just waited for Miggy to do his business…. Finally, we left at 15 minutes before the movie started. The movie is about the Japanese and American War. It was close captioned in English. However, half-way through the movie Miggy fell asleep. SIGH! That’s what pigs do after eating, they sleep! Hehehe!


Anyway, after the movie we strolled around again. Claire and I tried on some shoes in some stores. The shoes were nice and expensive, we plan to buy next time we get our next salary. We went home at 10:00 in the evening. Miggy and I took the LRT and from Cubao we parted ways. It was TRULY a pleasant experience. We planned to sneak out again and do this again next time!
