Ubbog Cordillera: November 2008
http://ubbogcordillera.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html
Tuesday, November 18, 2008. Poetry and the Ibaloi Literary Tradition. THE Ibaloi literary tradition is an oral tradition; thus, it doesn't have the art of writing poetry. Poetic lines are found in other literary genres such as the budikay (riddles), ba-diw (chants), and songs. The Ibaloi sayings, idioms, curses, and praises are also poetic in nature. Most of which are metaphorical. The Ibaloi culture doesn't also put much emphasis on the literary arts. The focus of learning was more on the industrial...

Ubbog Cordillera: Flintstone's Club and the Igorota
http://ubbogcordillera.blogspot.com/2008/12/flintstones-club-and-igorota.html
Monday, December 15, 2008. Flintstone's Club and the Igorota. My dad said my calf muscles, butoy. In my native Kankana-ey tongue, are big and round camote tubers. My very objective but highly euphemistic friend told me they are the "most developed ambulating device" she has ever seen. And I see my legs as the flogging club that Fred Flintstone carries on his shoulder when he goes out to hunt for dinosaurs. This is the fate of the notorious Igorota's calves. Nobody seems to know what to do with their calv...

Ubbog Cordillera: Marapait: For the Bitter and the Sweet
http://ubbogcordillera.blogspot.com/2008/12/marapait-for-bitter-and-sweet.html
Tuesday, December 2, 2008. Marapait: For the Bitter and the Sweet. With its sun-colored petals, one might imagine it is sweetly smiling. It is one of Baguio's trademarks indeed. Marapait is the local term for the wild sunflowers growing like grass here in Baguio City - common and abundant. How it got its name is because of its bitter-tasting leaves. Mara is an Ilocano term for "parang" (like, similar to) while pait, as we know it in Filipino means bitter. But instead of buying one, he and his other class...

Ubbog Cordillera: Of posters and plans
http://ubbogcordillera.blogspot.com/2009/02/of-posters-and-plans.html
Saturday, February 7, 2009. Of posters and plans. To begin with, we need to bow to Sacha's beautiful photo and design of our poster. The poster made me want to keep one for myself and just put it up in my room, sadly however, the only entities my room entertains are ghosts, so it is highly inadvisable to do so.

Ubbog Cordillera: October 2008
http://ubbogcordillera.blogspot.com/2008_10_01_archive.html
Monday, October 27, 2008. By Jesus Miguel G. Agreda. ASIDE from the cool weather and lush pine trees that made Baguio famous, the city has also been synonymous to the haunted and the paranormal. However, aside from all the fears of entities and spirits that inhabit these places is the apparent evidence that these paranormal sites have been a living testament to the rich heritage of the city. In an online petition to declare Baguio as a Special Heritage Zone, Dion Fernandez whom our group Ubbog had met be...
