Women’s Club: An Avenue Of Learning
by Cecile Cinco
May 11, 2008 was another successful month for the UCG-Manila Women’s Club members, which is the 4th monthly meeting for the year since February.
As the club secretary, I read the last month’s minutes. It was followed by 
Tongue Twisting to be able to be relaxed especially for the speakers. After, the scheduled speeches by Cora Evangelista (my mom) and Grace Remo (our club president) gave the 
listeners more idea about the speakers as they gave their “This Is My Life” speech. Next month’s speech presenters were drawn afterwards and will be given by Elda Ellamil, Lourdes Javier, Madz Verzuela and Loretta Panlaqui, in that order.
Afterwards, we started
cooking. We had chicken burger
and fresh lumpia. We also had chicken shanghai as a variation of the burger mix. Both chicken recipes were presented by Grace Remo. The fresh lumpia was presented by Cora Evangelista. She also presented how to cure pineapple to spread its sweet taste all over. We had a 
great lunch together with the Spokesman and Graduate Club men who were waiting at the other side of the hall partition. The fresh lumpia was served to the men’s club for their snacks.
The Knowledge Channeling Feature was learning how to analyze handwriting, which was my first time to present the subject with talking, to a group. So I guess I started to overcome the fear of presenting to a group. Being more of a writer than a speaker, it was quite a feat for me. (Maybe sometime we can also learn cosmetology.)
The women were able to learn the following as was posted on the bulletin board:
- If a person is onion-skinned (or not) so we can be more careful in joking around with our sensitive brothers and sisters, or anyone, for that matter.
- If a person is naturally introvert or not, so we can understand why certain people “snob†you and others treat you as if they’ve known you for so long.
- If a person has a keen or slow comprehension so
we can be more patient to people who just can’t cope as easily than the others. - If a person is naturally creative and artistic so we know who we can tap. (If the person is also an introvert, this talent will not just show, except by handwriting.)
- If a person is good in emergencies, or if a person will panic.
- If a person is a procrastinator or not so you know how early you should delegate a task and how much buffer you can allot before the real deadline.
- If a person you’re dealing with has the tendency, or really, dishonest, which can save you from scammers.
- If a person is naturally stingy or extravagant.
- If a person is pessimistic or optimistic.
- If a person is problematic at the moment.
They actually analyzed their own handwriting so they were able to see for themselves the accuracy of their newfound learning.
For next month, we are going to have pineapple tart, apple pie and kare-kare. Our Knowledge Channeling Feature will be Healing With Pressure Points, to be presented by Loretta Panlaqui.

My Mother’s Day Share
by Cecile Cinco
Yesterday (Philippine time) was Mother’s Day. I headed to our monthly Women’s Club monthly meeting so I left home at 8am to catch the 9:30am meeting. While in the bus, I got my mobile phone out and started composing a new message to send to all the mothers in my phonebook. I know I missed some (ran out of load) so I just greeted them personally.
I received several greetings as well but I did not want to forward any of them. I didn’t want to merely greet the common ‘Happy Mother’s Day” either so I made Continue reading »

by Cecile Cinco
You may have a musical instrument like strings (guitar, violin, cello, banjo, etc.), which are those that usually get out of tune either accidentally or not, and you don’t have any tuning gadget when you want your instrument in tune. If you have an organ, that would be fine, but since an organ is quite expensive, it is more likely that owning an organ is a vague option. Continue reading »
