‎Sa buwan ng Agosto, ipinagdiriwang ang mahalagang okasyon sa Pilipinas. Ito ang 𝑩𝒖𝒘𝒂𝒏 𝒏𝒈 𝑾𝒊𝒌𝒂—sa pagdaan ng panahon, patuloy pa rin ipinag-aalab ang Buwan ng Wika ng mga Filipino. Para kilalanin at pagyamanin ang ating wikang kinagisnan at minamahal. Bilang pagpupugay at pagtangkilik sa ating wika at para sa ating pagdiriwang, inaaanyayahan namin kayong sumali sa aming patimpalak gamit ang paglikha ng salitang may diin, upang mas lalong paghasain ang husay at bigyang diin ang karunungan na nagmumulat ang ating kaaalaman at galing sa pag-tula gamit ang ating sariling wika.

STOP DOOM SCROLLING‼️🚨

Hey Regals! It's time to put down your phone and grab your favorite book! It's Book Lovers Day!!!📚✨

Fun Trivia About National Book Lovers Day:

It is celebrated every year on August 9! It is an unofficial holiday with an unknown exact origin and creator. Despite this, it encourages people to take a break, breathe, pick up a book, and relax while celebrating bookworms around the world!

Here are some tips to make your Book Lovers Day memorable:

1. Explore a New Genre: Try something outside your comfort zone, like non-fiction, classics, or sci-fi, and you might discover a new favorite!

2. Bookstore Crawl: Visit an indie bookstore or library and pick a book based purely on its cover.

3. BYOB Picnic: Bring Your Own Book outdoors with friends and snacks. (The golden rule: no talking when someone is in the middle of a good chapter!)

4. Share Your Thoughts: Write a review, post about your favorite reads, or connect with other readers on Goodreads or social media.

5. Flex Your Bookish Merch: Wear your favorite reader graphic tee or pin and spot fellow bookworms out in the wild!

In commemoration of Book Lovers Day, it is important to acknowledge that reading is not just about studying or a boring hobby. It actually comes with helpful benefits, especially for students. Reading can help reduce stress, improve memory and focus, strengthen critical thinking and vocabulary, and boost empathy by helping us understand different perspectives. It can also help you relax and improve your sleep, especially when reading a physical book before bed.

So, what are you waiting for, Regals? Pick up a book and start reading now! Enjoy the magic of reading while feeling the cozy weather! 📖🌧️

BOOKLOD held its First General Assembly and Orientation for Academic Year 2026-2027 today, July 23, 2026, at the Manny B. Villar Jr. Hall (AVR) in College Building 1. The event kicked off with opening remarks from Ms. Shaira Mae Grencio, Lead of the College Learning Commons, and Ms. Divina Gracia M. Dimaculangan, the club adviser. During the orientation, the team discussed upcoming plans and activities for both the academic year and the club itself. New members also got the chance to introduce themselves and share their reasons for joining.

The program also gave special recognition to the club founder and former adviser, Ms. Jameila Angeli Barrientos, who received a certificate of appreciation, alongside graduating members Jamaira Bugal and Hannah Sophia Kho. The assembly then concluded with the election of a new set of officers who will help lead the club toward a successful year ahead. Everyone left the event excited for what is to come and looking forward to a meaningful year together.

Last July 15 and 16, we had the chance to meet so many freshmen at our Heartstopper-inspired booth. Thank you to everyone who dropped by, joined our activities, bought from our members, and showed interest in becoming part of BOOKLOD. Seeing so many people who share the same love for books made the event even more memorable.

We would also like to thank the KLD Central Student Government for giving BOOKLOD the opportunity to be part of Freshmen Walk 2026. It gave us the chance to introduce our club to the new REGALS. Thank you as well to the different student organizations that supported and helped us throughout the event.

A special thank you to our adviser Ma'am Yna and the College Learning Commons (CLC) for your continuous guidance and support. And of course, thank you to every BOOKLOD member whose time, effort, and teamwork made our very first Freshmen Walk a success.

To all the freshmen who visited our booth, talked with us, joined the fun, and signed up to become part of BOOKLOD, thank you! We can't wait to meet you again at our upcoming Orientation and General Assembly.

See you at our next event, REGALS! Thank you once again, and welcome to the BOOKLOD family!
