ReplyDeleteHi RJ!
ReplyDeleteOur first student entry! Thank you for your response. You have so many talents, that's amazing! I would love to read some of your travel writing entries. Looking forward to a great year with you.
Hi Nico!
ReplyDeleteThank you for your response. Please note that the instructions are to introduce yourself. Please write an entry about the topic. I appreciate your explanation about what it is to write concisely. :)
My full name is Jaime Angelo Banson Pastelero. My nickname among my close friends is Pasta because people thought my last name was Pastalero a long time ago. I enjoy playing any sport, but my favorite ones are basketball, and football. I have ran a 12k race in San Francisco called Bay to Breakers and I plan on running again next year. My hobbies include sleeping, eating, hanging out with friends, and traveling. Although I enjoy eating a lot, I hardly eat any vegetables and I absolutely hate eating seafood. I cant really play any instrument or sing, but I think im quite a good actor as I have starred in a few school plays.
ReplyDeleteConcicely means to write briefly and gives the write ideas.
ReplyDeleteMy name is Francisco Miguel Soriano Tolentino and my nickname is Pancho. I studied at the Ateneo de Manila University for nine years. I was in the track and field varsity team. I represented my school in the shotput event. I have been involved in student government as a vice president and a sergeant at arms for five years. I love to cook and experiment on new dishes. I am also part of an awesome church group called LUKE:18.
I'm 오 상 호, that's Oh Sang Ho in romanticized alphabet, but you could just call me Joseph. I enjoy playing RPGs(Role Playing Games) like the FF(Final Fantasy) series, Kingdom Hearts among others. I also happen to play the guitar and even took special classes during the summer break. I also enjoy eating doughnuts, any brand and flavor though I love the chocolate flavored ones best. Although I'm a Korean citizen, I have had the privilege to grow up in this wonderful country, the Philippines. It is such an honor to live and be immersed in such rich and diverse culture. I am hoping that my stay in Bannister would be of great addition to the memorable experiences that I had in this country.

Hello there, I'm Larry Chuanico. I enjoy painting all sorts of pictures. Someday, I dream of studying in UST for college. Although sometimes I have difficulties in school, I think I'll still make it.
ReplyDeleteI also have problems dealing with people hence them being irritated with what I do or say. Nobody likes to be irritated especially me. I really enjoy school!
