Upon entering, a kaleidoscope of activities unfolded. Home Economics students, their aprons donned with pride, showcased culinary delights. An "Ukay-ukay" (thrift store) brimmed with affordable clothes and charming satin roses. But what truly captivated me was the "Quote Corner." For just one peso, you could pick a rolled-up message, a chance encounter with wisdom disguised in paper. My first pick hit home, reminding me to be gentle with myself. Another, Louisa May Alcott's "Breathe, Darling, this is just a chapter, not your whole story," resonated deeply, leaving me with a warm heart and a smile.
My
second visit, guided by Mrs. Dela Cruz, revealed a transformed landscape. ICT
took center stage, buzzing with activity. The photo booth, manned by friendly
and attentive students, became a haven for capturing memories with friends.
Rows of laptops hosted a diverse gaming arena, while the second floor showcased
student-made short films, each a testament to their creativity. Even the graham
balls with marshmallows were irresistible! The infectious laughter and lively
chatter painted a picture of pure enjoyment, a stark contrast to the usual
classroom atmosphere. We left, faces beaming, with the knowledge that learning
could be this much fun.

was more than just an event; it was a testament to the power of learning beyond
the four walls of a classroom. It provided a space to relax, have fun, and,
most importantly, learn in a unique and engaging way. In a short span, it
opened my eyes to the endless possibilities of experiential learning, proving
that education can truly flourish in the most unexpected places.
