Field Trip Overview

We had our Major Field at Manila last October 4-8, 2010. On each day of the field trip, we went on some various companies that can be found within the perimeter of Manila. In five consecutive days we visited lots of companies like Social Security System, First Academy of Computer Arts, UP Diliman, Ayala Techno Hub, Advance Science and Technology Institute, Telecommunications Training Institute, PLDT – INNOLAB, MMDA and we went to Tagatay and Enchanted Kingdom.

Via Cebu Pacific we have arrived at the Domestic airport at around 8 A.M. After that we went to the bus in which we are assigned. The first company that we have visited was the SSS (Social Security System). The company was located at the East Avenue, Quezon City. We had our symposium at the said company which lasted for two hours more or less. It was already lunchtime when we have finished our company visit; we had our lunch at the Great Eastern Hotel located at Makati. The next company that we visited was the First Web Academy which is also located at the Makati City. A couple of hours after the visit we went shopping at SM Mall of Asia and had our dinner at Atcha’s restaurant located outside the mall. It was a busy day and after all of that we checked in at the Garden Plaza Hotel located at Paco, Manila.

We started our second day with a breakfast at the Grills and Sizzles restaurant which is located at Examiner, Quezon City. Then after that we went to UP Diliman still located at Quezon City. At the said location we had our UP-USeP Information Technology Symposium 2010. We only had our lunch at the university. The next company that we visited was the Ayala Techno Hub at the Commonwealth. We went back to UP right after our company visit at the Techno Hub. And then we went to Trinoma for shopping, again. We had our dinner at the Tramway restaurant located at Timog Avenue, Quezon City.

On the third day of our pleasurable but strenuous field trip we went to ASTI (Advance Science and Technology Institute wherein we found the people behind the operating system called Bayanihan. After that we went to Telecommunications Technical Institute. And at dinner time we were only given an equal amount of money for us to have something to eat. We also went shopping at the Tutuban Mall.

One of the most exciting day was the fourth day of our field trip. What makes it exciting is that we are going to Tagaytay specifically at the Peoples Park in the Sky. And lastly at the Enchanted Kingdom.

It was the fifth and the last day of our field trip. Somehow I felt a little bit sad simply because we are leaving Manila at the end of the day. We checked out at the hotel and then had our breakfast also at the hotel. Then after that we went to MMDA at Mandaluyong for our last company visit. After that we went to SM Mall of Asia and had our lunch at the Taste Asia and then went inside the mall for a little shopping. We waited for our bus to “SUNDO” us and then went to the Domestic airport and then off to Davao City via Cebu Pacific.
