And I can say, the E-heads were one of my musical influences. One of the first songs I've learned to play in the guitar is from them.&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The reunion concert last year was cut short due to the front man's hopitalization. The band was on their first set, 15 songs when Ely suffered a mild stroke that he needed to be rushed to the hospital. And the continuation fo that concert i said to be slated on March 7, 2009. It is entitled "The Final Set" and the venue is in Mall of Asia (MOA).&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The tickets ranges from Php 5000 to Php 300. &lt;/div&gt;</description><thr:total xmlns:thr="http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0">0</thr:total></item><item><title>License Guidance Counselors</title><link>http://daywiththecounselor.blogspot.com/2009/02/license-guidance-counselors.html</link><category>guidance counselors</category><category>license</category><author>noreply@blogger.com (Bryan)</author><pubDate>Sun, 22 Feb 2009 04:36:00 -0800</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-445451052444016697.post-4861845688802017695</guid><description>The list of approved applicants for license of guidance counselors without examinations are out now. &lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;You can check them on the PRC website. &lt;a href="http://www.prcboardexamresults.com/category/guidance-counselor/"&gt;Just click here!&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><thr:total xmlns:thr="http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0">0</thr:total></item><item><title>lame duck</title><link>http://daywiththecounselor.blogspot.com/2009/02/lame-duck.html</link><category>frustrations</category><author>noreply@blogger.com (Bryan)</author><pubDate>Sat, 21 Feb 2009 21:33:00 -0800</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-445451052444016697.post-1105857247340436938</guid><description>&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial;"&gt;Finally!

Of course, I can say that he is the p&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="line-height: 115%; color:black;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial;"&gt;rotégée of the acad head.

The higher school officials wanted me out for no reasons. One thing is obvious though, he wanted his nephew to be in my place. So that they can control all the vital positions in the school. But I prevailed! They were not s&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="line-height: 115%; color:black;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial;"&gt;uccessful on their endevor. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial;"&gt;But now, they are. They found a hole on my qualification. They say that CHED is requiring all counselors to have a license. So there, it is here where p&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style=" line-height: 115%;   color:black;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial;"&gt;rotégée comes in. But based on my little investigation, this &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style=" line-height: normal; "&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial;"&gt;p&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style=" line-height: 115%;   color:black;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial;"&gt;rotégée is not really a licensed counselor. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style=" line-height: normal; "&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style=" line-height: 115%;   color:black;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style=" line-height: normal; "&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style=" line-height: 115%;   color:black;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style=" line-height: normal; "&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial;"&gt;From now up to the end of March, I will be the lame counselor.
