During the Alumni Homecoming in Elbi, we have interviewed three of the Finishers. We’ve asked them the question: “ How was your experience in UPLB?”. We got different reactions in response and we realized, their experiences aren’t so different from others.

But, it’s their methods of survival that make them unique. Bow down to the Finishers.

Masbate City, a province known as the Rodeo Capital of the Philippines or the Ranch Capital of the Philippines. People can be seen horseback riding, bull riding, etc. across beautiful landscapes. My province is not just famous as one of the world’s producer of gold but also rich in culture and traditions . This video, focuses on how Masbate is a wonder island as it is surrounded with water.

My hometown is located near the midsection of the nation’ s archipelago. And from where I grew up, the sea means life.

The word “Cauayan” comes from the dialect of the Gaddangs which means bamboo. Cauayan City ranked as the 10th highest land area among the 37 local government units of Isabela engaged in agriculture, trade and commerce, and services. It is a melting pot, the center for tobacco industry of the north, a cosmopolitan place where people of rich and diverse cultures co-mingled, and known as the “Mushroom City of the North”.

Circumstances lead us to where we are. For me, the circumstances bring up mixed feelings. Regardless, I am where I am: Los Banos, the city of Science and Technology. While I have familiarized myself with the streets and shortcuts, I find my peers travelling to and fro their hometowns and the university. While I find myself bored, they find themselves constantly back to the road.

There is little I can do for them, but maybe a little sneak peek at what the city holds will be something that will suit their fancy.

With over 33 barangays, Liliw is a small town found at the foot of Mt. Banahaw founded in 1571 by Gat Tayaw. According to a story the name Liliw was from a bird, as it sang “Liw, Liw, Liw” as it alight on the second bamboo pole Gat Tayaw erected with his comrades. During the Spanish times, it became “Lilio” because it was easier for the foreigners to pronounce. Eventually, a resolution was passed by the municipal council making “Liliw” as the official name of the municipality.

Liliw is popularly known for its’ shoemaking industry, some of which says rivals that of Marikina. However, that information is not up-to-date as our municipality continuously strive to make use of its resources and serve its towns people and tourists the best attractions partnered with generosity. I talked with a friend last week and he had no idea where Liliw is, even if he’s only living a few towns away, in Los Baños. “Ano ‘yun? Pokemon ba ‘yun?”

Well, it isn’t. Let me introduce you to my hometown, Liliw!

Ala ey sinsay na dine sa Lipa, nang ‘yong makita ang tunay na ganda!

“The Little Rome of the Philippines” and “The Coffee Capital of the Philippines” are just some of the titles that my town, Lipa City, possesses.
