|  | Ladies and gents, I present to you another blast from the past. I recently came into possession of the VERY FIRST logbook of the UPLISSA! Hermetically and meticulously preserved by Rene Manlangit (of http://plaistrlc.blogspot.com), and with the earliest entry dated August 3, 1990, this piece of UPLISSA (and UPSLIS) history is now 18 years old. Back in the day, this logbook was the main means of communication and expression for the ILS (now the SLIS) students. There were no cellphones. Beepers hadn't made a widespread appearance yet. The Net in the Philippines was still in its infancy, no blogs, no social networks. And... This was the year when the male population of the college suddenly ballooned. This probably accounts for the fact that this was also the year when all hell broke loose. Note also the emergence of the first UPILS basketball team in the pages. So weird that we acted that way back then. So weird that the people who once wrote on these pages are now department heads, chief librarians, faculty members, executives and company VPs. Cry havoc and let slip the dogs of war! |

| | Funny how things line up. Out of the blue Cy asked me where to buy bokkens and shinai when we were at the LISSA Summer Swim. Seems he's interested in swordplay having talked to Tyran and seen a kendo club in UP years ago. Well, guess what, Tyran was my kohai and I was part of that kendo club in UP years ago, the Yuukan Kendo Club (an unrecognized informal club). Tyran and I were the last two guys of the club, I closed it down since I ran out of things to teach Tyran. I gave Cy one of my old shinai (bamboo swords) so he could practice. As it turns out, Liz also practiced Haedong Kumdo, a korean art similar to Japanese Kendo. Finally, after years, I found out what subtle difference there was between kendo and kumdo in my talk with Liz. Seems they can change grips from right over left to left over right, which we didn't do in kendo. With the guys graduating and CY going back to the province, I think we'll set up an SLIS informal meet a year from now where we can beat each other senseless. :D I'll ask Tyran if he wants to come. That's Cy's sablay and Janny sleeping it off from thesis work, btw. *sigh* I'm out of practice, tried a swing at the tambayan pillow and missed. I hit the bulletin board. The sound shocked the guys at the Flipp tambayan, me thinks. Soweee. O_o;; |
