I just posted a few hours ago that I won’t be blogging for a while but I can’t resist putting out this short note that the UP Open University is celebrating their anniversary today. You might want to check out their website http://www.upou.edu.ph for a list of courses that they offer. There’s one online course that particularly interests me, Filipiniana Online – a multimedia course on Philippine Arts and Culture (more).

Others blogs? Check my Technorati icon for blogs that link here. Or if you have a blog, email me and I’ll post it here. I believe this is one way to keep in touch or reconnect with former classmates, blockmates and people we’ve met while at UPLB.

Need car insurance quotes?
Why this blog? I got this idea when I met my blockmates last August. We always get back to reminiscing our UPLB days – teachers, classes, escapades, org as well as our crushes then. This brings me back in college, I was at SU during the Loyalty Day celebration and there was a group of alumni who made it a point to eat at the coffeeshop at SU because that was were they used to eat. And yes, my friends and I would get to talk about the things that used to be and what we have now. I got this idea that it would be good to know how was life in UPLB then (maybe how different…). Our memories of UPLB would be defined by the years we were there, the decade, the politics of our time, the fashion and the music… Let’s bridge the gap between years – share what was UPLB in your time, get a glimpse of what UPLB was for others and enjoy what is UPLB now. Hence, What’s UP, Los Baños?I started this a couple of weeks ago, writing about my favorite memories of UPLB – the gazebo at the Horticulture garden, Ellen’s fried chicken, the ever increasing jeepney fare, most especially my blockmates, friends and teachers. Now that I am back in LB for graduate studies, I am rediscovering UPLB all over again. Then typhoon Milenyo came. From 5-10 visitors each day (mostly my friends) to hundreds of visitors per day last week, I am deeply overwhelmed by the generous comments and feedbacks from all of you. I am glad to share with you my blog, fellow alumni. I especially enjoyed your sharing your memories of UPLB when you were here as students.
Thank you very much and welcome to What’s UP, Los Baños?.

Need some carpentry work? Try Schlage.
Hi! Welcome to What’s UP, Los Baños! This is just an experimental phase. Sort of a news and events portal for fellow UPLB people in Los Baños and around the world. Let’s see where it will go…
For some background, I am a batch `91 girl, currently in Los Baños though I’ve been away here right after graduation. Now I’m back and will probably be based in LB for a couple of years. I might as well keep you up to date on what’s happening in LB.Wouldn’t it be great to keep in touch? To reminisce what UPLB was like when we were “reigning” its academic halls and roaming its streets?
What’s UP, Los Baños?
(Thanks for those who have been reading my blog. Please help me promote to other alumni.)
