This is the 3rd and last day of the regional games of community colleges around Region 6. The most awaited day to bring home the championship awards.

We're back here for the last time. The School Clinic Medical Team secured their post at the Basketball Court, and we also report to our usual posts at the Volleyball and Badminton Court. They have been here earlier than us and the game was pretty intense since it was the championship games. Both teams have skilled players and each has their own tactics to win the game. We're on a lookout here in case of accidents and injuries since both teams were determined to win the game.

The first game in the morning includes the team our school. We're lowkey rooting for there here at the corner since we're not allowed to cheer to avoid biases during our duties. No matter how clever our team was, we couldn't really compete with other teams who were school athletes and highly trained in that particular sport. Honestly, our team didn't have much practice and the players are all ordinary students from different courses. The coach only picked the ones that have potentials during our Foundation Week. Even so, the team managed to catch up with the scores of their opponents and gave out their best to remain on par. However, their cleverness didn't pass through and lose in the end. At least, they managed to keep their scores near the winning points.

After the morning, we've rested at the room provided. I was surprised to see one of our team eating Mulberries while talking to me. I liked the berry since I was a kid and I haven't tasted it in a long time. Cravings and curiosity have gotten into me, so I asked where did he got it and I want to eat some, too. A while later, he lead into a narrow path that's a shortcut to go easily at the back of the room and to cross a newly built road.

We entered the iron gate and asked permission to the caretaker if we can have some of their berries. The caretaker agreed since they were not harvesting those and said that only birds are eating the berries. Yes, quite true indeed. As we looked at the trees, birds were chirping above it and some overripe berries have fallen on the ground.

Here are some of the mulberries up close!

The red ones are sour but bearable. The one with black mixed with red spots were a bit sour and a little sweet. And, the black ones, the one that were completely ripe, were sweet and it was soft that somewhat melts in your mouth. These berries were small, so you have to eat a lot to fully processed the flavor. But of course, first things first, you have to wash them before eating.

The last event for this day was the ALCOR pageant show which was held at the Coliseum. Since we were at the Bago City College, we have to commute or walk to get there. We were not in a hurry, though. We choose to walk to the location. Upon arriving, we saw a lot of Medical Teams from different schools and from the city posted inside to monitor the word. It gives us a relief to pull out from the duty early and go home to rest.


That's the end of the event and our duties as well. If you're interested to know more of this said event, you can check the Facebook Page of ALCOR 6 - HINAMPANG 2024 for further information. Thanks for reading until the end of this blog!

Participating in the event is already a win. Great job to all of you. I am curious about the taste of the mulberries. But thanks to your description, I now have an idea of what it tastes like. 😅

Mulberries are good. Thanks for dropping by!

Ohooo, seems like you had fun watching the game. Naalala ko lang during college, mga ganitonf events sa school ang masaya coz no classes, lol. Anyways, that mulberries, di pa ko nakaka tikim nyan. Tumutubo pala yan sa Philippines, uwu. Pahagis nga ng iba nyan here ng matikman, uwu

Yes naman. Di lang gaanu karamihan ang tumutubo sa atin. Haha kung pwede lang mahagis eh, kaso mabilis lang to masira.
