Today, we continued making our Performance Task in Empowerment Technology.

We discussed about how the PT is going on; was it on the schedule we intend to finish it. We also planned what are the things that we need to put in our website like videos, facts, or anything that will help in promoting our page.

Our group also came up with a plan that will surely help in promoting our problem. We will be making something that is related to our stand and surely it involves probably the I.T students. At the end of the period we were able to come up with plans and to do listl it was a very productive day for us.

Today February 22, 2018 we had an activity in our Empowerment Technology subject. Our groupmates looked for the activity that we need to do. This activity is related in the development of our PT. We were able to dessiminate the tasks to our fellow groupmates, we assigned ourselves to the roles provided. Like me I was task to make a website for our PT entitle free products/services, it will help for the viewers to see the changes we need to change and the skills that will be given. Some of us were task in making our Facebook page since Facebook is one of the mostly used Social Media so it is easier to desimminate information. We were able to gather researches and information that will help in supporting our research.

It was the second and last day of our retreat at Betania Retreat House, Malasag. Before we end this, let’s go back to the first day. 

February 19, 2018, Monday - It was the day of our retreat that was exclusive only for the ABM students. It was also the day of our immersion; we asked our supervisor that we will be having a retreat in the afternoon and that we will be working half of the day only. Before we left the campus, our Emptech teacher approached, telling us that we will have a short meeting with him for our Performance Task in finals. I was afraid that after the meeting, our task should be passed on Tuesday before 5 pm, and I will be not present during that day because of this retreat. I then disseminated the information to my classmates so that they will be able to know what are the things that is needed to be done; I asked a favor from my classmate to personally explain to the others on what I told her about the PT. We left the campus at 2:30 pm and rode the Lourdes College School bus, praying for guidance and safety as we went on the trip. We arrived at the retreat house around 3:10 pm and when we proceeded to exit the bus, the view was amazing and the place was so quiet that you can only hear the sound of the wind and birds chirping in the trees. We were lectured about the house rules and what are the things to be observe during the retreat. We were accompanied by Sister Dina, Sir Zandro, and also Father Joseph Gatdula who was our lecturer during the retreat. We spent the night at the retreat house where each of us were assigned in different rooms; in one room, there is a maximum of two (2) persons. 

We ended our retreat with a Holy Eucharistic Celebration. Everything was worth it; the learning we had, all the motions we felt, how we handle things, especially with our problems. We are also very blessed that we have been given this opportunity to experience a retreat before graduating. We nurture everything; all the bonding and meeting of new friends. I am very happy that had I experienced this. I am hoping that I can come back here and experience this amazing feeling where we can just pause, take a deep breath, and enjoy while seeing the beauty of God's creation
