iKALINGA T-Shirts and the Ullalim Festival

I congratulate my fellow iKalingas for having a successful Ullalim Festival for this year and hopefully we will be having a better celebration next year.

Though I was not able to go home, again, to witness the entire festival I still managed to get updates from my friends and siblings there in our province. As for my merchandise, the iKALINGA t-shirts, I could say that its market was OK. I want to thank those people who bought their own shirts; and also to those who had come to know it.

The iKALINGA T-shirts are still available and there will be more designs to come. Watch out!

Ullalim Festival | Valentine's Day | Chinese New Year

February 14 holds a lot of events; local, national and international celebrations. Kalinga Province is currently celebrating its foundation day, the Ullalim Festival. Congratulations!

Today is also the celebration of the Chinese New Year. 一夜连双岁，五更分二年 (Kung Hei Fat Choi)!

Also, happy Valentine's Day to everyone!

iKALINGA T-Shirts is now on sale!

The Kalinga Day (Ullalim Festival) celebration opened today; too bad for me I cannot be there. I always wanted to participate for the activities there; like the street dancing, join my tribe play the gongs. Anyways, I'm proud to be a Kalinga and am very thankful to all those people who had made the Ullalim Festival as good as it gets.

On the other hand, the iKALINGAt-shirts that I've designed is now on sale there in the trade-fair area. So go and grab yours now.

iKALINGA T-Shirts for sale on Kalinga day!

Despite me not going home, again, for the Kalinga Day (Ullalim Festival) celebration this coming February 14 the iKALINGA t-shirts would be there though; lucky t-shirts. Sigh.

The iKALINGA t-shirts would be displayed in one of the booths at the trade fair area. Please support. Thanks.

No Leaves for Kalinga Day

I'm so disappointed and sad for the leave that I filed for the Kalinga Day (Ullalim Festival) was not approved. Sigh!

Nevertheless, I would still have to sell my iKALINGA t-shirts. So, hopefully, my merchandise will all be sold-out.

Kalinga Day | Valentine's Day

The Ullalim Festival (Kalinga Day) is fast approaching and yet my filed leave is not yet approved. I'm thinking that there's a slight chance that it would be approved since there are a lot of agents that filed their own leaves as well for that week (Feb 14-20) not because they will attend the Kalinga Day celebration but to have their own dates, it's Valentine's Day! Ouch!

Though my filed leave may not be approved I will still try to figure out a way to go home; attend the festival and of course to sell my merchandise, the iKALINGA t-shirts.

iKALINGA Shirts on Kalinga Day

Earlier this morning I've been thinking if I'm going to push thru my plans of selling iKALINGA shirts this coming Ullalim Festival (Kalinga Day); what was holding my decision to do so was the approval of my requested vacation leaves (VL). Sigh. It's really hard for us, here in the office, to get our VLs approved these days.

After some 'random thoughts' I have decided (100%) to sell those iKALINGA shirts; anyways there is already a trade-booth reserved for us. That's the good thing.

Anyone interested to order the iKALINGA shirt you can message me here, eMail me (julzryu@yahoo.com), or text me (09197197606) for details. Thank you.

Kalinga Day Celebration v2

The Ullalim Festival (Kalinga Day) would be less than 30 days from now. I'm somewhat excited to be a part of it after a long time. I'm still hoping that my vacation leave would be approved. Sigh.

I want to watch the different Kalinga sub-tribes show their performances. The "sound of the gong"! Whew! It's been a long time since I last saw a sub-tribe perform that. Hopefully I can perform too; the last time I played the gong was about 6 years ago.

Kalinga, my beloved homeland, see you soon.

Kalinga Day Celebration

The Kalinga Foundation Day (Ullalim Festival) is again approaching, it would happen this coming February and I'm excited to attend the celebration along with the iKalingas (and with the other tribes).

The last time I was not able to attend the Ullalim Festival due to my schedule, hopefully this time my filed vacation leaves would be approved. I have plans also to join the trade fair and sell my own merchandise (t-shirts and modern bongors). Watch out!

KALINGA Day!

Balita ko OK naman daw yung selebrasyon sa nakaraang Kalinga Day (Ullalim Festival), good naman kung ganun. Di nga lang ako nakauwi sa probinsya sa kadahilanan na may mga unekspekted na pangyayari na nangyari dito na sana di nangyari.. eh nangyari naman. Hehehe.

Ang ipinagtataka ko lang ay kung bakit Forward Rural Development ang tema nung okasyon; so bale ang akronym neto ay FRD? Hmmm.. Galing naman; Floydelia R. Diasen ang pangalan ng aming respetadong gobernador sa aming lalawigan eh. Coincidence kaya? No comment. Basta ang importante ay masaya at mapayapa ang bayan.

Matago-tago tako losan!
