Conyo here, conyo there, conyo everywhere! Here at La Salle, conyospeak has become an unofficial language as a good chunk of the student body knows, or maybe even mastered the socialite tongue. However, one must never forget the basics of the conyo and we thusly bring you: The Ten Conyomandments.
1. Thou shall make gamit "make+pandiwa".
ex. "Let's make pasok na to our class!"
"Wait lang! I'm making kain pa!"
"Come on na, we can't make hintay anymore! It's in Andrew pa, you know?"
2. Thou shall make kalat "noh", "diba" and "eh" in your pangungusap.
ex. "I don't like to make lakad in the baha nga, no? Eh diba it's like, so eew, diba?"
"What ba: stop nga being maarte noh?"
"Eh as if you want naman also, diba?"
3. When making describe a whatever, always say "It's SO pang-uri!"
ex. "It's so malaki, you know, and so mainit!"
"I know right? So sarap nga, eh!"
"You're making me inggit naman.. I'll make bili nga my own burger."
4. When you are lalaki, make parang punctuation "dude", 'tsong" or "pare"
ex. "Dude, ENGANAL is so hirap, pare."
"I know, tsong, I got bagsak nga in quiz one, eh"
5. Thou shall know you know? I know right!
ex. "My bag is so bigat today, you know"
"I know, right! We have to make dala pa kasi the jumbo Physics book eh!"
6. Make gawa the plural of pangngalans like in English or Spanish.
ex. "I have so many tigyawats, oh!"
7. Like, when you can make kaya, always use like. Like, I know right?
ex. "Like, it's so init naman!"
"Yah! The aircon, it's, like sira!"
8. Make yourself feel so galing by translating the last word of your sentence, you know, your pangungusap?
ex. "Kakainis naman in the LRT! How plenty tao, you know, people?"
"It's so tight nga there, eh, you know, masikip?"
9. Make gamit of plenty abbreviations, you know, daglat?"
ex. "Like, OMG! It's like traffic sa LRT"
"I know right? It's so kaka!"
"Kaka?"
"Kakaasar!"

Take this, Meyer! :D
According to Stephen, "Both Rowling and Meyer, they're speaking directly to young people... The real difference is that Jo Rowling is a terrific writer and Stephenie Meyer can't write worth a darn. She's not very good."

Lakbay Aral sa Bundok Banahaw
Medyo tinatamad na ako ikwento ng buong buo yung field trip so ippost ko na lang yung paper na ipapasa ko tomorrow na about doon. :) **Tinamad na akong iedit. Crammer as usual.** PICTURES ARE HERE!
From the breathtaking environment to the tranquil atmosphere, there are no words to describe how I felt after the field trip in Mount Banahaw. A place of luscious trees and crystal clear water. A place of vigor and hospitality. A place of serenity and holiness.
When Mr. Romulo shared to us that they, the Rizalistas, believe that Dr. Jose Rizal is an embodiment of God, I instantly became curious how they came to this conclusion. Someone voiced out this question of mine, and he answered by reading a few verses from the Bible. This belief would seem bizarre to other people but I think that it is interesting rather than peculiar.
The trip down to Sta. Lucia Falls was quite easy, though the steps were winding. Our guide said that we can drink the water and that it was clearer than our bottled mineral water. I tasted it, and it was very refreshing. I only regretted that I didn’t drink a lot because after soaking a bit in the water, we were supposed to climb the 267 uneven steps. I was beyond exhaustion after that excruciating “expedition”.
For me, the most memorable part of this field trip is the journey to Husgado. While it wasn’t still my turn to go inside, my classmates and I reminded each other that when we are inside the cave, we have to focus and observe the person in front of us so that we wouldn’t have a hard time getting out of there. Finally, it was my turn to enter. I stared at the darkness enveloping the cave, and then took a deep breath. I followed the guide’s instructions on how to lower myself, and it was a relief when I had done it. Or so I thought. I observed my surroundings, and I was racking my brains on how on earth can I get out of the narrow tunnel. It was a good thing that I was not claustrophobic and lygophobic. As I was waiting my turn to go to the third chamber of the cave, I asked a few questions to the guide stationed there. He said that during the Holy Week, people who visit there reach thousands. He also mentioned that they believe that those who cannot get out are sinful. Then the guide from the next chamber gave the go signal to pass through the tiniest hole I have ever seen. That was the time that I felt terrified. I was fretting whether I would fit that hole or not. And so, there was nothing to do but to continue. I stretched, flexed, and wiggled myself and voila! I’m in the other chamber. The rest of the way was not that difficult anymore. I really had fun in the latter part wherein you have to hold on to rocks and step your feet there in order to lift yourself up. That was really exhilarating.
I also felt privileged to meet the Suprema. When I saw her, I was filled with reverence and awe especially when she shared that they do things for other people without expecting anything in return. They also welcome every person that would pass by their place, regardless of their race or nationality.
Despite the fact that I was exhausted, drained, wasted, worn out, famished, and every adjective that pertains to tired, I’d say that what we did in Mount Banahaw was very fulfilling and left me a feeling of euphoria like no other.
