1. I don’t know how to start this journal not only
because I can’t think of something to write
about the topic above but also I don’t know
what to do first-- my portfolio, my
presentation, or to review for the upcoming
pre-board exam? How great is this life.
Anyway let us proceed.
Community linkages. What about that?
A school is a community and
outside the school is another
community. When both of the
communities relate with each other,
there we have a link and who makes
that possible? Of course, teachers
make that
happen. They
are the
frontrunners
of all possible
transactions
for the
improvement
of both communities. They talk a lot inside and
outside the school. It’s the only profession I
think that your house becomes an extension of
the school. They are seen by the students, the
parents of the students and the common tao as
a respectable entity and with that, we can say
that teachers have high social status. As a
matter of fact, if social status is the basis of the
list of richest men on earth then I think a
teacher will make it to the cover
of the Forbes’s magazine. Unfortunately it’s
not. We are so underappreciated when it comes
to economic status. Service oriented? - I say
yes! And isn’t it, that the more that a job is
service oriented
then we should
receive what is
due to us. Should
a Senator push
that motion in the
congress and be
able to legalize it,
I’ll do whatever I
can to campaign
him for President.
On the other hand, let’s talk
about voluntarism. After this week,
I had completed my Field Study
seven. Practice teaching is over.
Basically,
FS7 is not
all about
practice
teaching. It
is also
taking part
of some of
the
activities/programs and do some favors for the
school. So what were my contributions to
TCSHS?
Together with my companion, Gelmarie, I
was able to help clean the laboratory and fix the

the vegetable and herbal gardens and I think the
most especial thing that I’ve done is when I danced
during their Christmas program. Take a look at
some of the pictures at the center. So for now,
this is the least I can say. So long.
