I commiserate with the kind of emotion that you have been nurturing for quite some time. But I would like to believe that along the way, you will come to terms with the basic truth that life indeed is full of contradictions, not to say it is miserable and unfair many times over. I hope that your going away (from the place that’s been hurting you a lot) will afford the vantage point from which to see things in different light. I remember an adage: When you’re too close to the forest, you might not see the trees.

Hi Leandro,
Welcome!
I There’s no place like home, indeed, as some friends and relatives who have been based elsewhere would assure, nay, affirm such feeling/emotion. In a short while I shall be posting some photos–not exactly about Damulog but Bukidnon–to cure those persistent longing for home, its sweet smell and fond memories of love and loved ones. These were taken during the Pasundayag 2009 at Intramuros with Bukidnon as the highlight. This space is open for photo contributions not only about our school and Damulog but also about those who have been part of that institution who now belong to the larger reality we call life–its struggles and challenges as well as victories. Therefore, photos from/of alumni and their respective families here and abroad are very much welcome.
Please spread the blogging virus by inviting former classmates, school mates and friends to visit this site. Again, this is your site.
Thanks and warmest regards,
ADI
PS. Please let me know which batch/class do you belong. Please state your full name too so i can include you in the rooster I’m about to post here.

Yes! thanks to this high technology developed – the internet, that we have the venue to express our opinions and communicate with our friends, relatives and other acquaintances through emails, friendster, facebook, to name a few. Now, we have this special blogsite for Xavierians. Kudos to my cousin Jojo Igcalinos for creating this site!
XdeDHS have gone too far! Now it is in its 40th year of existence. But what else to be done to help our beloved alma mater to survive? Many and much more…
Really, there is this big challenge for Xavierians, as said, who have been once part of this school to look back and share their available resources – skills, talents, materials, financial, etc. to make a difference in the lives and future of a Damulognon or any other who was once part or wishes to be part of XdeHS.
Batch ’86-87 and other batches have contributed in our own little ways, but the need to sustain and strengthen these undertakings would require passion and dedication for the school’s challenges it has faced now.
Sending an scholar to UP is one great idea!
Xavierians, share your thoughts…

I’m extremely delighted that a fellow Xavierian, Meriam Camaso of Class ’87, paid this site a visit and shared some of her golden thoughts.
You’re right, by dealing with the challenge on “what else can be done” indeed takes passion and dedication. Let me say that these are the magic words here. No, make them the KEYWORDS! Without these (passion and dedication), everything in this world would be gray, if not dark, lacking life, and therefore, not worth living.
And to do something does not always involve your hard-earned dough, right? Skills and talents are always valued for their ability to transcend not just the people who possess them but the society at large whose members share or benefit from all these. Like, we have artists and creative geniuses among us with ready, able, and willing hands to extend to those in need, for gratis, of course! We also have skilled engineers and architects who may have been nursing secret fantasies about designing and building a new wing for our school, again, for free. This is not being recklessly optimistic. I’m trying to drive home the message that we have countless of generous souls out there who are willing to help. What we are doing right here is initializing efforts towards this direction. But we don’t stop at initializing, for that is wavering in our passion and dedication. We are and we should sustain this effort and the best way to sustain it is to systematize everything that we are doing.
In the succeeding posts, expect to be solicited more of your talents and skills, and of course, your brilliant ideas.
It might sound cliche, but I still believe at heart in the adage that TOGETHER, WE CAN DO MORE.
Please keep your thoughts flowing and minds working, as brilliant ideas are not subject to bandwidth limits here.
