Day 5, OHPC

Last Friday is my 5th day of my One Hundred Pesos Challenge. All along, I thought I had a good week to start with but, unfortunately, I didn't. There is a good reason for losing though.

Temptation Prevailed . . . . . . . . . 1
Determination Triumphed . . . . . 4

======================================

As what my record says, I only spent more than a hundred pesos last Friday. I had a winning streak for Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. Friday was exceptional because I was at school at around 7am and went home at 11pm. I know I will get myself into these situations soon but heck! This is just the beginning of the challenge!

On the same day, probably the very reason why I had to stay in school for 16 hours, a special meeting has been called in UP One-Earth. UPOE is one of the organizations that I am involved in. The meeting is qualified as special because we have guests from Dakila. In their site, they defined themselves as

...a group of artists, students and individuals committed to advocating social consciousness formation among both their industry peers and their immediate audiences. DAKILA recognizes that Philippine society is in the midst of a significant upheaval and that, as disciples of the creative act, we are not exempted from the responsibility of helping contribute to positive change.

The reason for their visit is to request UPOE's partnership in touring environmental causes inside our campus in line with the biggest environmental concert that will simultaneously occur in over 70 nations across the globe in anticipation of the make or break UNEP summit in Copenhagen.

My orgmates are excited about their offer. Of course we love to partner with all the organizations we can to usher a cause for the environment. We'll wait and see how things will eventually turn out.
