One of which, if the Islamic calendar I looked at is right, will be the Feast of Ramadan holiday in July. Two (2) special non-working holidays in fact if you’re also working in Pasig City.

February 25, 2014 is EDSA Revolution School (only) Holiday

I think it’s only moms, mostly full-time moms or maybe full-time dads, who will sort of have a non-working holiday on February 25.  It’s a special holiday but only for schools.  Students rejoice since you don’t have to wake up early on that specific Tuesday.

February 25, Tuesday

EDSA Revolution Anniversary

Holiday for Schools

Since it is towards the end of February, don’t forget that it’s also the Malasimbo month!  Malasimbo Music and Art Festival happening in Puerto Galera from Feb 27 to March 2, 2014.

Friday, Special Non-Working Holiday

So, where are you off to that long weekend? 🙂

Stumbled on this birthday video that my friends made (almost 6 years ago?) in my archive and got a tad bit sentimental, despite the ugly photos of me they chose.  It’s so nice to see again what they had to say that time.  It’s a good encouragement for me to start this year!  I am extremely blessed to have good people and good life-long friends in my life.

Declared 2014 Philippine Holidays, Regular and Special Non-Working

We all just got off a pretty long Christmas holiday break last December but it’s never enough is it?  I love it when Christmas falls on either Wednesday or Thursday.  It naturally calculates into stretching the holiday break since December 24 and/or December 26 work gets called off too since Christmas is midweek.

 

We are back to the daily grind today but couldn’t help think of the next holiday break.  Are we in the same strand of thought?  I’m so itching to travel!  I know the Lord will bless me with a travel buddy this year!  <3  I’ve listed below all the declared 2014 holidays in the Philippines for us to anticipate and mark in our calendars.

The Feast of Ramadan

(UPDATE as of July 25, 2013):  I got this info from someone who works in the government but apparently it hasn’t been announced by Malacanang so it’s not official yet.   BOO.  🙁  but there are still 2 official non-working holidays in August, and if you work in San Juan or Quezon City, make that THREE!

June 19, 2013 is a Philippine Holiday?

 

UPDATE as of June 18: Malacanang has issued Proclamation 600 declaring June 19, 2013 as a Special (Non-Working) Holiday in the Province of Laguna to commemorate 152nd Birth Anniversary of Jose Rizal.  In this regard, employees who are assigned to work on this day will be given premium pay in accordance with their company’s existing policies.

It’s a holiday in Laguna tomorrow!!!!! WOOOT.

——-

The Palace declared last year that June 19, 2012 is a Philippine special non-working holiday in the city of Calamba and regional province of Laguna to commemorate the birthday of our national hero, Jose P. Rizal.

 

I wonder if Malacanang will declare the same this year for Dr. Jose P. Rizal’s 152nd birthday on Wednesday, June 19, 2013.
