Tsinoy!



It was my first-time experience to attend a musical play in Solaire which composed of professional singers and actors. I had this experience way back in high school wherein we came up with a musical play of Highschool musical for the whole batch having different kinds of songs to perform. It was just a lip-sync. That’s why I was amazed at the performance we watched at Solaire.



It was also known that the Chinese culture of marriage is to marry a Chinese as well. It was a good story and an overwhelming beauty of voices. They were all great singers. Also, I realized how to persevere a country is to its own culture. It is very strict however, some are devoted still to follow. 

I wondered how to maintain the culture in oneself. We are in a millennial generation, and I don’t know if the youth today can even sustain our ancestors’ culture. For example, saying ‘po’ or ’opo’. Has this remained with the youth? I am hoping that it is, that there are Filipino values instilled in them. 

Hence, there is a good and bad habit or culture we also had. “Filipino time” has become customary with all the Filipinos. I wonder who brought this culture to us. We should have let the bad habit instilled in us. Culture has been a reflection of one’s country.

Complete!

As I said in my introduction, it was my first time to know the meaning of integrality. Integrality is being complete as a person. I think if there is an aspect of our lives that is not well nourished, we shouldn’t be bothered to feel incomplete. Because wholeness comes within. It is how we accept things. If only we accept things, we will not feel incomplete. What I’ve learned in this course was to value oneself. I have learned the importance of relaxation or meditation. Health is wealth. It is important that we shouldn’t live a stressful life. We should always think positive whenever circumstances and situations come unexpectedly. I have also realized the importance of the workplace in an individual. It is five times a week a person comes into the office. Every management should take care of its people. Business leaders should be more aware that common good starts from within. They need to ensure there workforce should be treated justly. At the end of the day, it is the happi...

Introduction

Observation and Experience:          It’s a brand new semester and I’ve always been motivated and excited to learn new things and go beyond my comfort zone. It is already expected that this class will contain 9 students because of the online platform to view the number of enrollees. I choose this elective class because I’m available on a Saturday morning class. I had an idea that from the subject name itself, it is for the human development of the employees in the organization. However, having integrality, is something to learn and think about.          I have learned that integral human development promotes the good of every person and the whole person. “Development cannot be limited to mere economic growth alone. In order to be authentic, it must be complete: integral, that is, it has to promote the good of every person and of the whole person." (Populorum Progressio, Pope Pau...

Help the community!

To be a Lasallian business leader, one should understand the social and environmental challenges of the society and not just his/her own organization. I was amazed that graduate studies at DLSU do not just focus on the business aspect but for understanding the community as well. It is a good way in which we will actively participate and collaborate with different social groups. Our class visited GK Farms. It was a new experience for me since I was amazed at how the community is solid and motivated by their vision. It was a brilliant idea for Tony Meloto which is the founder and father of Gawad Kalinga to come up with a community that is driven to change the life of those who are in need. Their vision really struck me which is to raise the global movement of 500,000 social entrepreneurs in 2024. This is a statement on how everyone should be encouraged to come up with a business and live using the resources that came from that business. It was also a good experience for us to mak...
