SynopsisTimeline
My journey to PCN coordinator began my freshman year I joined Akbayan and became part of Luzonia Family In the spring I decided to try out for an acting role in the 25th PCN where I was casted as the fairy godfather Dr Jose Rizal From there I fell in love with PCN I ran for Public Relations Officer for the following school year and offered to help with the 26th PCN That experience inspired me so much to run for PCN Coordinator for the 27th So here I am today and I couldnrsquot be more excited to share this story with you
- Mia Richelle Guevarra
The story yoursquore about to witness is fictional It was written as if it could have happened and all the characters are a figment of my imagination The inspiration came from a workshop with Professor Kim Komenich He witnessed the EDSA Revolution first hand taking Pulitzer Prize winning photos
This story is not to be confused with the take down of Marcos My intentions are not to highlight any side to be better than another This story is focused on Maria and Ricardo and their laban to be together during an iconic time in Philippine history
Laban in Tagalog means fight Maria and Ricardorsquos story begins a little before the 4 day EDSA Revolution in the Philippines but carries on into it Their families bring them into the revolution yet separating one another by their opposing sides Mariarsquos family supports Aquino while Ricardorsquos family supports Marcos However their involvement with the revolution doesnrsquot keep them apart it brings them closer together During a time where tomorrow is never promised they fight day by day for peace freedom and most importantly their love--- proving that with the right kind of fight or laban tomorrow is guaranteed

SynopsisTimeline
My journey to PCN coordinator began my freshman year I joined Akbayan and became part of Luzonia Family In the spring I decided to try out for an acting role in the 25th PCN where I was casted as the fairy godfather Dr Jose Rizal From there I fell in love with PCN I ran for Public Relations Officer for the following school year and offered to help with the 26th PCN That experience inspired me so much to run for PCN Coordinator for the 27th So here I am today and I couldnrsquot be more excited to share this story with you
- Mia Richelle Guevarra
The story yoursquore about to witness is fictional It was written as if it could have happened and all the characters are a figment of my imagination The inspiration came from a workshop with Professor Kim Komenich He witnessed the EDSA Revolution first hand taking Pulitzer Prize winning photos
This story is not to be confused with the take down of Marcos My intentions are not to highlight any side to be better than another This story is focused on Maria and Ricardo and their laban to be together during an iconic time in Philippine history
Laban in Tagalog means fight Maria and Ricardorsquos story begins a little before the 4 day EDSA Revolution in the Philippines but carries on into it Their families bring them into the revolution yet separating one another by their opposing sides Mariarsquos family supports Aquino while Ricardorsquos family supports Marcos However their involvement with the revolution doesnrsquot keep them apart it brings them closer together During a time where tomorrow is never promised they fight day by day for peace freedom and most importantly their love--- proving that with the right kind of fight or laban tomorrow is guaranteed

Karatong Gayong Gayong35
In rural gatherings this dance offers much merriment and fun Gayong is a pet name for Leodegario According to the legend and to the words of the song Gayong and Masiong (pet name for Dalmacio) once attended a feast commemorating the death of a townsman While eating Masiong choked on a piece of adobo so he called ldquoGayong Gayongrdquo asking for help to dislodge the adobo from his throat In this dance Masiongrsquos liking for feasts and the consequence of his voracity are held up to playful ridicule

Dance Origin Aklan Capiz
Karatong has male dancers using a karatong or a bamboo tube about a yard lon tied horizontally below the waist and struck by two sticks to tap the rhythm of the dance Female dancers collect flowers from the mango tree The annual parade of San Agustine includes the celebration of blossoming mango trees that grow abundantly on the island of Cuyo the former capital of the Palawan province Starting at the church patio and ending at the town plaza groups of ladies sway their colorful ldquobunga mangardquo which are meant to represent the flowers of the mango tree while the men strike lively syncopated beats with their karatong
