Hi to all, today is the last day of our Kadayawan Festival here in Davao City. Kadayawan is a celebration for the good harvest here in Davao. If you visit Davao City during Kadayawan Festival you will really enjoy because of the events like indak-indak sa kadalanan and the float parade and alot more. Because today is the last day of our celebration I’ll make sure you will really be satisfied if ever you visit here in The Durian City.
Last week our University were really busy renovating and preparing our school and facilities with the coming PAASCU evaluation. This evaluation will tell if our school is good enough to be rank more higher or not. This is the first day of the evaluation and Im glad that the evalation was done very fine. I hope that our school will pass in this Evaluation because I know that we really deserve it.

1.) What is descriptive research? This research is the most commonly used and the basic reason for carrying out descriptive research is to identify the cause of something that is happening. For instance, this research could be used in order to find out what age group is buying a particular brand of cola, whether a company’s market share differs between geographical regions or to discover how many competitors a company has in their marketplace. However, if the research is to return useful results, whoever is conducting the research must comply with strict research requirements in order to obtain the most accurate figures/results possible.
