The members of the group distributed the copy of the topics to all of the participants.  Prof. Utleggreeted them before she started the seminar. She explained line by line and the participants were very participative during the discussion.  All of them reacted when she was discussing on “Know how to say I love you”.  She explained that saying “I love you or hugging and kissing” are also one way of saying “thank you” instead.  She requested them to say “I love you, Kapitan” and they were all very excited and said “I love you, Kapitan” and the Brgy. Chairman, Hon. Adonis B. Manuel faced them with a smile and in return, he said also, “I love you, too”.  Then each of them said “I love you” to the person seated beside them.  After this, they dared the resource speaker also to say “I love you, Kapitan” and she did it.  Then after that, they requested her to kiss him and she kissed him with a friendly kiss on his left cheek and they were very, very happy.  The resource speaker appreciated too much with the reactions of the participants.
