TGIF!
This morning at the office I helped Trixie to arrange the newspaper articles that will be used in updating all the bulletin boards of the Office for Public Affairs. At our first day, we were told by Ate Mica that even these simple things are being checked by the Father De la Rosa so it is very important that these things are updated. These newspaper articles contains news, facts, and happenings in UST.
Also, Trixie and I filled out billing forms for the DHL express. We are the ones who put the addresses and the consignee to whom the package will be sent. These are again in relation to the upcoming Christmas Concert Gala.
In the afternoon, me, together with Trixie had a campus tour again. The group consisted of sophomore students from Colegio de San Agustin in Makati. These kids are "conyo". Very, I would say. Anyway, they were divided into two because they express interests in Fine Arts and Medicine. I was the one in - charge with the one going to the Beato Angelico Building.
Ms. Reintegrado from the College of Fine Arts and Design, gave the students a tour of the building. She showed the works of their alumni and students, the classroms, the drawing room on the 8th floor, and the one liked by the students very much, the IMAC Computer laboratory where all the computers are MAC. They were all amazed by it, I supposed. :)
The tour ended at around quarter to five. It was fun and much better than the one yesterday. It is mostly because the students were much more disciplined and they were really interested with the school.
Soo.. That's my third day at work. Getting better and better.. Now I'm thinking of spending my 300 hrs here... :))
*I forgot to say that Trixie and I are allowed to use the SLR Camera. HAHAHA. Soo much fun.. Especially during campus tours so that we have pictures that we could put in the practicum report. And also, during times in the office when we'd like to take pictures. HAHAHA. We are so lucky, I know. :)))

10 NOV 2010, First Day :)
"Hello good morning! Office of Public Affairs! *smile*"
"Good Morning Ma'am! This is Louie from UST Public Affairs Office. I just want to ask who the Ambassador of Spain to the Philippines is? This is regarding the UST Christmas Concert Gala on December 2. "
Well, hello! Those were the lines that I have said when I spoke to different persons on the phone. Most of them were from different embassies of several countries in the Philippines. I asked who the different ambassadors are to know whom will we address the invitation for the UST Christmas Concert Gala this coming December. Yey! I'm quite excited about it because they said that we're required to attend. It is a formal event so we will have to wear gowns or dresses. :)
By the way, these were the people that I met, the different people involved with the Public Affairs Office:
Ma'am Fontanilla - the director
Ms. Jhona - secretary of Ma'am Fontanilla
Ms. Cel - the one in-charge of the different tokens to be given by the university to its guests
Kuya Jonathan - the artist
Kuya Anthony - former Varsitarian working with PAO and with ABS-CBN
Kuya Rom - the super "daldal" staff :)
Ms. Mica - our sunshine girl :)
This was my first day. I'm glad that I have already started. When I came into the office, together with Trixie, the other practicumer from 4T1, we were immediately called by Ma'am Fontanilla. She is a very nice person, fun to talk with, and very welcoming. We were given a formal orientation and some information about what the office is all about. Basically, it involves three matters : Media Publicity, Visitors Management, and Events Management, which is "very in line with our training", as Ma'am Fontanilla said.
Me, personally, I am very overwhelmed by everything. Being told that we have to attend to events, expose ourselves to the media, talk to a lot of persons, assist different ambassadors, conduct campus tours, and etc. Most of all, I love the idea that we will be given free tickets to the Christmas Special at Araneta Coliseum. I think it's an event under ABS-CBN. Wow. :)
On the other hand, today I also learned how to use the modern photocopying machine. It was fun, actually. I enjoyed it. I loved it. HAHAHA. I also did an updated list of contact details of different foreign embassies that is essential, especially when there are events in the campus. Together with Trixie, we also arranged the tokens to be given to those who are requesting for it. It is very important that we have reserves of those arranged tokens so that when somebody asks for it,we could already give it to him/her, provided that there was a letter submitted to the Public Affairs Office beforehand.
So... that's how my first day went. I enjoyed a lot. The people around me are very intellectual and fun to be with. Let's see. Maybe I'll be thinking of spending my whole 600 hrs there. :))
