Hapag ng Pag-asa

The painting "Hapag ng Pag-asa" is not just a painting but also a reminder to everyone. It reminds us the unfortunate children here in our country. It made us think of the hungry people that suffer most.It make us realized that we are so blessed that we have something to eat amd we can buy the things we wanted. It reminds us to count our blessings and appreciate the food served at table and think those hungry people who are starving for food. And this painting has a great impact in my life.

Mediatization of the Youth
Rev. Fr. Christian Buenafe, OCD


Mediatization of he Youth or the symposium or seminar about media is very important since we are bounded with high technologies. In connection with this, we should be aware of what really media is.
So when we talk about media, first thing that would come into our mind is television, radio,news, channels and information. So, what is the real definition of media.
Media is a channel through which the message is tarnsmitted. It is a part of communication process and a strongest man-made force that can influence people. It became a perspective, ideology, lifestyle, and a way of life.
There are five forms of media. Namely the print, broadcast and electronic, group or visual media, folk/traditional media and the non-media. Print media, just like for examples, newspapers, magazines, newsletters, manual, and other print materials. Radio, stereos, video cam, cd disks, cellular phones are examples of broadcast and electronic media. Group or visual media is compose of slides, flip charts, posters, stickers, journals, banners, and other visual media. We can also consider drama, story-telling, ballads, chanters,drums as a medium and they are called the folk/traditional media. The last but not the least form of media is the non-media. It is composed of home visits, face-to-face, public meetings, role playing, networking, drama seminar and lastly the activity that was conducted last November 13, 2008, the symposium. So, when we will combine those five forms of media it is already called a multimedia. Since nowadays we are living with those forms of media, we are now in "The Multimedia Age".
Therefore we conclude that media is very important in our everyday life because through this we can gather learnings and informations that will help us especially in our studies. We may be able to know the issues we are facing today and get some trivias and informations about the other countries all over the world.
