Sagada

Again, I have to go to Sagada to teach elemantary and high school children how to write a feature story. I don't know if they can grasp everything but at least get a hold of something. As I always tell them, let your teachers get the shakes while you enjoy your press conference (it should be press competition) and meet other young writers. I also tell them that I will not call them budding or would-be writers because they already are. Unless they join the financially-rewarding movie beat where being a bading writer helps. Or in High Times where budding journalists are at the head. If you didn't get the last joke, that's fine.
But allow me to tell you that only last week, a children's newspaper called "Children's First" came out with a very small newspaper indeed.
