Reflecting for a Better Future

Another chapter of my life has come to an end already. It is an achievement for me if I may say because despite the struggles I survived and remained strong and because I have completed another academic school year again. It is sad for some reason because my time with my current classmates are running out. Countless memories and playful banter were shared, sure there were some arguments but it was still resolved. I may not be closed to most of them but I have come to treasure them dearly. They helped me especially when I struggled in my academics, they were there to cheer me up. maybe for some it is a small thing because that’s what classmates do but for me it is a big deal. I am not an emotional person but I can’t help but to shed some tears when I remember that it s just a matter of time before we part ways. During this time, another valuable lessons have been added again that I may ned for the future. Countless experience have been accumulated also, it was very fun. I had fun this q...

A Decade of Dreams

  Life is unpredictable. It full of opportunities which helps us to survive in this world. like any other kids, I had dreams, many if I say. I dreamed becoming a teacher, lawyer, chef , architect and a pilot. even now I still hope that I can pursue being pilot, but money is always a problem. I am yearning for a future where I can pursue my dream job but not all things go our ways. I choose practicality over my dream, it is not because we can’t afford it but it is still a big factor, but the things is even though I would love pursue it, my determination and hope will never be enough for me to choose this.   Decade from now I imagine myself sitting leisurely while appreciating the scenery either by myself along with my pets or with my family and friends. I would probably be successful on the course I took which is IT. Call me delusional or ambitious but I hope to be one of the best someday. The road will be hard and and bumpy, but I picture myself decades later that those path...

Change for the Better

  Change for me is something that I yearn and fear at the same time. Change terrifies me at times because it is unknown where it will start, I entirely the change I fear but what comes to it. I fear that I may lost someone or something dear to me, I hardly let things go and that is something that I need to change. As they may say “change starts with me” I wholeheartedly believe in this saying. Change is something major that happens in our life, it can affect the trajectory of our life. But sometimes, what we fear is what we need the most to set our life straight and to accept the change for us to grow better.  Growing up is a change itself, whether physically or mentally. But the real change happens is when we set things straight in our life and to remove someone or something that holds us back to flourish. It is not a bad thing to hold on things or someone but sometimes it is what traps us and what makes us to fear change. Change is something that no can decide of us but...

My Mother, My Hero

 I hold Mother's day in a very high regard, mothers deserve to relax for sure but on this day I want to make it more special that it already is. I want my mother to be pampered to the best of my ability, even if I do I still think that it can not be compared to what she have done for me, well it can't be compared but still I want to make her day. Mothers are often just describe as someone who birthed as, but they are much more than that.  Mothers should have a vacation on this special day and completely relax, they should be taken care of just like how they did to us, but that does not mean that we shouldn't thank them in ordinary days. They don't get paid to take care of us and the least thing we do is to appreciate them and the little things they do. They are still human and they get exhausted, we should treat them sometime because even if it is a small thing they are still thankful. They may scold us but it is for our own good so sometimes we should reflect because a...

Yearning for a Better Future

  The labor day is the result of the Filipinos hard-won workers' rights. It is celebrated every May 1 to honor the sacrifices Filipinos have gave in order to have a fair and just working rights and conditions. Since it is a public holiday it is usually used to spend time with family or friends like going to vacations or eating out. Behind this holiday lies the grievances and sufferings Filipinos have gone through, inhumane working conditions specifically. it takes a lot of courage and bravery to fight heads on but I am proud that the Filipinos have pull it through.  The first ever celebration of Labor Day was on May 1, 1903. More than 100,000 employees were organized to march from Tondo's Plaza Moriones to Malacanang, this was  organized by the country’s first labor organization, “Union Obrera Democratica de Filipina (U.O.D.F.).” They have demanded and had a protest for their rights and for a better working conditions to the then-American-led government.  It is no jo...

Something to Remember

  Looking back on this last quarter, I can say that I've picked up a lot of lessons, whether they be academic or ones that I can use in my daily life. Additionally, I've made new friends, which makes me happy because it was difficult for me to find new friends. They supported me through my highs and lows, and I am thankful that they never left. Sincerely, without them, I might not have made it through this quarter. I've struggled to keep up with everyone during this time, especially when it comes to the topics. It was never easy for me during that time, but fortunately, my friends were more than willing to support me. I've watched a lot of YouTube videos about the lessons, and they even helped me comprehend them a little bit. I am really appreciative of my friends and classmates' counsel and assistance because without it, I could have given up. They never grow tired of explaining things to me and helped me better comprehend them. This third quarter, I've gai...

Faith Knows No Bounds

  Holy Week is the most significant week in the Christian calendar year because it remembers Jesus' last hours and crucifixion. We commemorate Jesus' birth, death, and resurrection during this season. We recall his deeds, consider his teachings, and renew our commitment to acting as his disciples in the present. The eight-day period known as Holy Week gives us the chance to consider the transformation in humanity that Jesus' death on the cross sparked.   I was disappointed that we couldn't go to the Visit Iglesia  because of our difficulties and the transportation, but I made an effort to be as active as I could. We weren't able to get together with my family because we were too busy and didn't have enough time, which I completely understood. Despite this, I was disappointed because before the pandemic, we had a tradition of visiting the church, and I had been looking forward to it. Hopefully, we will do this again next year.  I was raised a Roman Catholic, ...
