MY EXPERIENCES IN ALL COLLOQUIA


I really learned a lot of things for all the colloquia that we have had during this semester.

I was tasked then for the education. For that, I learned how to deal with people in inviting them to serve as speakers or moderators for us. I learned how to talk to them in a nice way in order for them to be encouraged and approve our invitation. I also learned how to deal with my group mates and understand our differences.
I learned different information from different fields during this semester. Imagine, we are only Mass Communication student but we are hearing different topics from our very intellectual speakers.

I enjoyed most the topic about entertainment wherein I wrote it as the funniest colloquium in my blog.

Well, I would suggest that the colloquium could have been better if there is a nicer place where the topic will be discussed. Also, the place would also give the speaker a more encouraging inspiration for him to give his best. The colloquium could have been more interesting if there were like games aside from serious talk that were done.

But still, everything became ok.

POLITICS…MEDIA…MILITARY…BUSINESS


The last colloquium talked about the relationship of media in politics. The invited speaker for this topic was the Councilor Jay Sangil who shared his experiences as a journalist. He did not say much about his experiences as a politician.

For business, we have invited an American who has stayed in the Philippines for a longer period just to lead his business in the Philippines.

For military, we have invited some policemen who have shared their experiences in fighting against crime in this country. They have also shared us some of their dangerous experiences.
I really enjoyed all the colloquia that we have had.

FUN COLLOQUIUM


I think, the last colloquium which talked about entertainment, fashion, business and sports is the funniest among the colloquia I have attended.

The colloquium became a funny one because the speakers were really entertaining. The hosts are also funny because they are making some jokes.

For entertainment, the speaker shared the happy experiences in his life. The speaker in fashion shared her tips and suggestions on how to become a real fashion person and not a victim. The speaker in business shared their secrets on how they became very successful in their chosen career. The speaker in sports shared to us the innovation in Tai-chi, a Chinese ritual by executing some of its steps.

HEALTH AND MEDICINE


I think being a Medical Technologist is really a hard task. It is not just a plaything but something that is really important and really crucial in the hospitals. Without them, the hospitals will not be working hard and efficient.

Last colloquium, the organizers have invited a special guest a Medical Technologist who is working at the Angeles University Foundation- Medical Center. I learned that this profession is really a very important one because they are dealing with the common and serious problems in the hospitals.

PHILOSOPHY…LITERATURE…EDUCATION

I really learned a lot during the colloquium about Philosophy, Literature and Education. I learned from Philosophy that you must really have a guiding principle in your life so that you could be having a right path in the life you take. This philosophy will tell you if your actions are right and this will also guide you to the road you take.

In Literature, the speaker was really inspired to his life in writing poems. I admire him because he is very sincere to his passion. He really is very dedicated in writing great poems which are also showing his knowledge in grammar and literature. I wish I also could be like him in writing. He even said that his favorite topic is about friendship.

The last speaker talked about education. She said that she is not having a hard time in being an educator and a mother. She even said that she did not have a hard time in being a mother for her children and an educator to her children as well. This just tells us that she knows how to become professional and a loving mother.

THE CAMPUS JOURNALISM IN AUF IS DEAD

For our first colloquium, we have invited editors in chief from the different colleges in Angeles University Foundation and the staffers from the Pioneer with their adviser.

What really have stricken me is that when one of the guests said that campus journalism in AUF is dead. What thing have probably influenced that editor to say that?

Well anyway, I must say that before I did not realize that campus journalism in AUF is dead. First, I was not involved on these matters before. Second, I am not really interested in knowing these things. But now, I was like inspired to make some actions for campus journalism in AUF. Like, I want to be a part in changing the state of campus journalism nowadays.

As a Mass Communication student, I have the responsibility to take part in making campus journalism in AUF a nicer and a better one.

But before I can do that, I must study hard first with my Journalism subjects so that I will know these things really.
