TO MS. BERNADETTE ESTACIO:
PART 2: ETO LAHAT NG MGA KALOKOHAN MO;
Minsan, DI NA NAKAKATAWA MGA SINASANBI MO. Iisa-isahin ko na lang yung mga natatandaan ko; 1. “Sir, pwede ba maligo sa ulap? Pwede bang mag-shampoo dun?” 2. “Sir, may 7-11 ba dun sa summit?” 3. “Bat 200 ang babayaran sa guide. Di ba 250 ang minimum wage dito sa probinsya? Ehh 4 hours lang naman sa bundok. Dapat 60 pesos lang babayaran ko. ” 4. “Sir, may water source ba sa taas? Kelangan ko kseng magpunas bago matulog.” 5. “Sir, eto ang mga gusto ko sa lalaki. (1.) Guwapo (2.) Matalino. Pero sa totoo lang, dito sa PNMS sa #1 pa lang di ka kayo pumasa.” (Oouuuuccchhh!!! Baka pagnakita mo sina Luigey, Neil, Jay, Sir Jun, Sir Bob… MAKALIMUTAN MO TALAGA PANGALAN MO, LAGLAG *** MO!! ) 6. “Sir, pwde bang gumamit ng credit card dun sa itaas? 7. “Ang init naman dito (CAMP2, at 4AM), sapatos ko lang nilalamig”. (Meron bang pakiramdam sapatos mo? Pero pansin namin balot na balot ka ng jacket na triple ang laki sa yo. Ehh lahat kaya ng tao dun di na nga makagalaw sa lamig. Tao ka ba o ikaw yung pinakamagandang hayop? Imported Cloud Rat?)
Fyi, WANTED ka na sa mga guide ng Manabo. 50 pesos lang di mo pa binayaran. Pwede ka naman maglambing sa kanila kung saan lang talaga pwde mo bayaran, maiintindihan ka pa. Hinatid ka na nga pati sa pagsakay ng bus, PINAGMUMURA MO PA SILA. (Balik ka ulit dun, para malaman mo kung gano sila galit na galit sa yo. Kung ang aso nga ginagawang kinilaw, tiyak na tiyak sa ‘yo PAPAKULUAN muna tapos BOPIS ang labas mo.)
Eto pa, di na matapos tapos isyu sa yo. WANTED ka na rin sa mga guide at porter ng Pulag. Andami mo na atraso dun.
Tama ka, nagbayad ka ng 200 para sa DENR fees. Eto pa ang mga di mo binayaran, iisa-isahin ko na lang; Registration: 400 Bus: 390 Guide Fee: 100 Jeep: 500 (Baguio to Ambangeg to Baguio) Porter Fee: 200 ---------------------- TOTAL 1,590. Yung paunang bayad mo bago umakyat 400, may utang ka pang 1,190. Mam, pwde ka naman magpalibre kung maglalambing ka lang ehhh. Sabi mo ang 53,000 gastos mo sa Hongkong, tapos yung barya lang pinagtataguan mo pa. Siniraan mo pa pangalan ng PNMS. Parang nagmamalaki ka pa. Inimpluwensyahan mo pa yung ibang mountaineers.
Pero don’t worry di na kita hahabulin dun. PERO HAHABULIN KITA PAG “TINALO MO PA ULIT GRUPO NG PNMS”, LALO NA SA MGA TAONG SINAKTAN NG MGA DILA MO.
Inaamin din naming nagkamali din kme. Nagkamali kme kse PINAGSILBIHAN KA NAMIN, GINAWA KANG DYOSA, at NAGPA-UTO NAMAN KME. Wala nang next time.
Dette, (7) lahat ang guest namin, isa ka na dun. Yung (6) wala kmeng proble-problema . MATIGAS LANG TALAGA ULO MO! MAY SARILI KANG MUNDO!!
Sabi nung isang tumulong sa yo, “Sir Jeffrey, wag mo nang patulan. Napahiya din ako sa kanya. Di inosente na yan, palagay ko may SAYAD LANG. Sinayang yung ganda nya.” You need help. You need guidance. You need a friend, a good friend, and I hope you have one.
TO MS. BERNADETTE ESTACIO: PART 3: APOCALYPSE
Once again, Mt. Pulag dared to surprise me – taught me a simple lesson. To understand not only the nature of her enchanted beauty, but to understand the nature of individuals climbing on its foot. We conquered (again) the Mt. Pulag summit with my (9) PNMS comrades, and (7) PNMS guest climbers, not counting the FIMO Family (other Affiliates).
I met Ms. Bernadette Estacio in one of our pre-climb activities, who happened to be my former classmate in one of my subjects in Business Administration masteral course (MBA). She insisted that she wanted to go with us, with conviction. Of all the guests, she gained my first trust. I assigned her (2) PNMS buddies for the climb, in any of her needs. We shared jokes, and she even had a good laugh with us.
We implemented a strict policy: No preclimb, no climb. We conducted personal interviews, including profiling, individual climbing experiences, assessment of health, checking of individual climbing resources – as part of guest climbers’ assessments. On our final guest’s evaluation with PNMS seniors and members, lots of complaints have been aired particularly on Ms. Bernadette’s behavior, looking that she will be a big "liability" in the major climb activity (Federation Climb – Mt. Pulag). Yet, I laid my cards and had my final consideration…. I counted her in (I gambled to have a good try), even adjusted our climb itinerary favorable on her schedule.
Before the climb, I always advise her to be more cautious on the manner she speaks. I always advise her to respect the decision of the Team Lead. I always advise her to follow the Team’s itinerary. I always advise her mountaineering rules and values….., countless of times, but her obedience is a different story.
For us PNMS, mountaineering is not only climbing mountains and aiming for summits. For us, mountaineering is brotherhood united by good values. Yes, PNMS do have scars, so much wounds to bare, and we do struggle everyday to overcome that limbo. Yet, all of us are passionate and committed to be matured, and be more refined. In PNMS, we are not bounded by (1) person, we are bounded by a commitment – and we called it the PNMS BLOOD. We dared to expel a PNMS member, a close friend of mine; and history can attest to that. We defy our personal motives. As a member of the PNMS Family, we promised to protect the name and integrity of PNMS, AT ALL COST.
TO MS. BERNADETTE ESTACIO: As my former MBA classmate, try to be more mature and professional. The words you posted speaks loudly for your attitude and behavior. Internet is poisonous; it will hunt you, will cripple you, and will eat you down – if you don’t know how to use it properly. Kindly try to see your values in different angles, and feel them. Try to check the root cause your dilemma, before having your conviction with validation and proper justification. I think, you need to learn and to understand more things in mountaineering. To be a responsible mountaineer is far beyond in your reach now.
Sabi nung isang tumulong sa yo, “Sir Jeffrey, wag mo nang patulan. Napahiya din ako sa kanya. Di inosente na yan, palagay ko may SAYAD LANG. Sinayang yung ganda nya.” You need help. You need guidance. You need a friend, a good friend, and I hope you have one.
As the Head of the PNMS, I've learned to be more careful, be a good model, be sensitive with other feelings, practice collective ideas, yet having my sound and fast decision, in a timely manner.
“Life is for one generation, a good name is forever.”
JEFFREY P. FAMATIGA PNMS President
JUST A THOUGHT. 1. Nakasama ng loob kse di mo alam complete name ko, kahit pangalan na lang sana. You only posted the picture, with the arrow :) Magpapakilala ulit ako sa yo >> Jeffrey P. Famatiga po.
2. Fyi, 'di po ako ang VP ng PNMS, magagalit sa yo sir Sir Emmen nyan :( May mga pictures pala kme sa yo HEheheheee. But, we greatly appreciated that you saved our pictures in your camera, with our happy faces. We knew that we had great moments, and you're a part of it, lam mo rin yun, pero wag mo naman i-crop. Sayang naman.
3. Si Sir Tony, bat mo pa dinamay. Di ba sya pa nga nagturo sa yo kung ano ang mga tamang dadalhin, proper backpacking, pati instant BMC ginawa nya. Sa lahat ng mga guest, sa 'yo lang nya ginawa yun, kse nag-aalala sya.
4. Si Sir Aye din, bat mo pa isinama sa pic. Sya yung sweeper natin na nag-aantay parati sa yo para makaakyat ka lang. Sinabihan ka na sa baba pa lang na magpaporter, matigas lang talaga ulo mo. Sya rin nag-ayos ng tent mo.
Please naman, spare them. Bernadette, one last question: Wala ba talagang gwapo sa PNMS?
Cheers!
