Pumasok na ang rebel, pangalan niya ay Erah.
Andito pa si Melchie, ang sossy na maarte
At di magpapatalo, si Jojieng manlalaro.

Nakangiti lang si kumare

Nagets nyo na ba ang misteryong ito?
Grabe ka naman, hawak-hawak mo  'to.

E-book, di ka na mapantayan

Chorus:
Mga kabarkada ko
Dapat ng malaman niyo
Dapat ng itigil to
E-book ay kumplikado

Mula ng umusbong ito,
Lahat tayo'y lokong-loko
Lahat ay sinisisra mo
Pati ang bukas ko

Refrain:
She's dating the Gangster
Breaking Cassanova's Heart
Talk back and your Dead
My Prince and Campus Royalties

All in all, dyan kami na-fall
And now its the time
to stop this crime
Listen to our voice
because you have the choice
Before you say goodbye,
we hope you realize.

"Pagkain ng gulay ugaliin, araw-araw itong ihain." - essay

Long before, most people die at a minimum age of 90-100 years old. However, in today's generation, we seldom hear people who live as long as a hundred year. According to the Philippines Demographics Profile 2012, the average life expectancy of the Filipinos is about 72 years. This research simply shows that humanity's life span is deteriorating. One factor of this condition is due to health reasons. Approximately 1.7 million deaths are attributed to low fruit and vegetable consumption. Hence, the nutrition month's theme "Pagkain ng gulay ugaliin, araw-araw itong ihain." is indeed significant. 

Junk foods, soft drinks and canned goods are some of the foods that people preferred. Those are the answers that were never absent whenever we question someone of their favorite food, I admit, I am no exception. I was once one of those children who place veges on the plate side because their bitter and unpleasant taste hinders my appetite to take over in eating but when I got sick, I realize it was my fault all along why I easily acquired illness. The reason why my immune system is weak is that I neglect the nutrients that lie in vegetables. Thus, I always remember my Father's words, "Take good care of your armor and shield in life's battle-your health." Since sickness is definitely unavoidable in this modern world where we are totally exposed to bacteria and disease, we must always carve into our minds the nutritional benefits we could attain from vegetables. 

Lets not take a risk just because of pleasure in food instead, we must think of our health. It pays to eat the healthy foods than the tasty ones. Therefore our families must be served with vegetables everyday.

A Reflection : Three Days to See

"Only deaf appreciate hearing, only the blind realize the manifold blessing that lie in sight," - Helen Keller. She is the woman who succeed in life despite of the difficulties she encountered being deaf and blind. "Three Days to See", her remarkable essay that opened the eyes of those who disregard the importance of sight and awakened the ears of those who fail to acknowledge the significance of hearing, and I myself would be no exception. 

I shut my eyes and everything I see is darkness. I tightly close my ears and all I hear is silence. Those few minutes of being unable to perceive and incapable to hear aroused my sleeping soul. Meanwhile, the words of Miss Keller keep flashing to my mind and made me realize that I neglected a lot of things. I became blind; I haven't utilized the sense of sight in an upright manner. Only the undesirable matters are recognized by my eyes which causes me to grumble and complain. Furthermore, all I could see are the mistakes of others that causes me to judge them without thinking that everyone and everything is imperfect. Criticism always comes first because only the outer part of something is what I look at; I barely ponder to the inner side of those things. I then realized this is the reason why I couldn't cherish the beauty of everything that I have. I was struck into the negative chunk of the world and i admit it was my wrong. I learned to embrace every object that comes within my vision and to value the entirety of what I posses like they'll all be gone tomorrow to be able to make life worth living.

Another golden though that Helen Keller's essay left me is to fabricate the essence of living even how miserable our life is. Everything has its own reason and we must concede the fact that problems arises for us to learn and these are God's instruments to fulfill our mission. He only provided what is best for us. Honestly, I often find myself being insecure to what others possess but I realize I must not because there are things that I possess which they don't. Thus, I must always be grateful for all the blessings that He had endowed to me. Likewise, Helen Keller doesn't have the sense of sight and hearing yet these did not hinder her to achieve what she aims for, instead, she uses these to touch one's life. As what they say, we couldn't always have what we love but we could love what we have. Therefore, let us make the most of every sense.

Bakal Boys

A long road towards paradise is what I and my family took last April 28-29. During the trip, I saw many people. Different people. Faces show smiles, some confusion but many shows worry due to difficulty. Every single day is a game, we take the risk because we need to survive. If we stay still, we lose. We fight, we win. Along the road, I saw kids. Kids who wear rags instead of proper clothes.Kids who carry sack instead of balls. Kids who are working under the hot sunny day instead of playing. I asked myself, "Where are their parents?" "Why are they working at their young age?" This the reality. Not all children were born to have an abundant family so they are forced to work to earn money for their survival. Despite the difficulties they struggle with, they keep on walking and walking searching for materials that they can sell such as bakal and plastics. I felt ashamed of myself because I don't even work but I can ask my parents for my needs. I realize how lucky I am to be in my shoes. I got all the stuffs I needed to grow; my study, my clothes, my shelter and even my family. Then, a thought came into my mind, I must not sit on my ass waiting for the graces to come but to work for it and gain something irreplaceable not just money but the lessons learned while working. 

Pedicab I Lab

  2:15 pm. A hot afternoon ride in a pedicab with the driver and his seems-to-be-8 year-old son reminds me of my younger years. "Ang init! Pero di dapat tumigil." I heard the husky voice of the man in wheels. As I look deep to his line, I remembered my Dad.

My Father was once a pedicab driver who sends people to different places, including students who were his regular passengers .When I was a kid, we travel along Calinan early in the morning of school days to fetch students and send them in school. That routine of my life opened my eyes to the different aspects of a true journey. I witnessed some events that taught me how hard it is to struggle with life.I realized its not that easy to earn money in the streets.

The driver smiled as I replied to him, "Ang init nga!." Seeing him and his son's humble smile touched my heart. Despite of the difficulties they encountered, they never forget how to brighten one's character. My heart felt at ease when our conversation started. Being in the road whole day is not a simple job. Facing the heat of the sun, the thick smoke and even accidents can never be avoided.

 Having my sight to the wheels, I remembered the accident I and my Dad encountered when I was in 3rd grade. That incident was not that critical or serious but I felt the pain and fear that my Dad feels. We stopped in front of a public school to drop some pupils. BAAAAM! A loud noise interrupts my calm feeling. As I look around to see what's going on, I saw the pain on my Dad's face. His left side was unfortunately hit by another pedicab. My innocence on the incident weighs a lot on my heart. I don't know what to do to rescue my Dad's current situation. I don't want to cry even if my eyes wanted to. Being brave is what I want to do that time; I don't want to add up on my Dad's pain just because he sees me crying. I don't want him to worry more that's why I chose not to speak.

 I heard again the warm voice of the driver. I felt as if I want to help him in some ways but I have no idea how. I understand the difficulty he is facing while driving. He wanted to take some rest under cool place but he can't because he needed to provide the needs of his family. I finally came right in front of our house. Our conversation was over but as I step down from the vehicle, I wanted to keep talking  to comfort him. He smiled once again and I also looked over to his son who is also smiling. I said my goodbyes.

I walked forward and I heard the pedicab's sound. Reminiscing the times whenever I hear our pedicab coming. My feelings for our pedicab will always stay in my heart. When I heard Dad that he's planning to sell it, I really cried. I honestly can't stop my tears. Even though its not ours anymore, still, our pedicab will always be the pedicab that I love.

Student's Lines

During Quiz/Test:

    "Pahingi ng papel"

    "Share ka naman ng sagot dyan"

    "May ballpen ka?Pahiram"

    "Nasa lesson ba natin yan?"

    "Urong ka nga! Hindi ko makita ang sagot"

    "Absent ba ako nang itinuturo yan?"

    "Ano nga yun? Nakalimutan ko talaga"

During the Checking of papers:

    "Bonus! Bonus!"

    "Yay! Yan sana ang sagot ko"

    "Sayang!Pinalitan ko!"

    "Kainis! Sana hindi na lang ako nangopya."

 

 

 

 

During Class Hours:

   "Sana holiday today"

      "Sana absent si Teacher"

      "Dismiss na! Please"

      "ZZZZZZZZ..."

      "Boring!" 

      "Bakit kailangan namin yang matutunan?"

"May pasok kaya bukas?Sana wala"

     These are the lines of the student nowadays.  Sad to know but we have to accept the fact that most of the students now are having less interest especially when middle days of the school comes. During summer vacations, students are usually excited to come to school however when months had already passed during school days, they became lazy and less interested to learn. I admit, I am one of those students who bring out those words. I know its not good to utter those lines but it suddenly comes out of my mouth. Then, I realized that why say those lines if I really had the eagerness to learn? Those lines simply show that I am one of the irresponsible studs who enter the school. I myself must be grateful because not all children are blessed to be sent at school.

Young Love. Is it really love?

      A while ago, I hopped on the site, OMEGLE,talking with strangers. Here are girls I met whom at age 13-14 are already in relationship. I was shocked of course! They are still kids and yet they have been into months of relationship. Me on that age is just of crush and adoration that's why I thought of how they felt at this point. Is it true love or we say it is infatuation. What's going on? Kids become adults while adults act as kids. Of course I can't blame them. They witnessed those kinds of relationship within their community that's why they came up having that relationship at their age. I don't have problem with it. It's just that I am worried of what will happen if they pursue their feelings for each other. Youth of today are on a haste. Even I, in 16, realized that young people are making everything in a hurry. Deciding and doing things without thinking properly. As we noticed in our society, many women became mothers at young age.Instead of reading books and studying, they are finding job and working hard to provide food for their offspring. Some women who thought of the burdens they will have with their child,tend to put in their minds to finish the life of the baby through abortion since they can't raise their child at her young age.Instances like these will definitely happen if young lovers will pursue their pleasure. I'm not saying that loving someone is prohibited. I merely want to express my opinions with this issue. Loving a person with the right decisions and having limitations.

The Window to One's Soul

They say that looking to a person's eyes is the same as knowing who he really is. Our eyes never fail to say the truth. Looking to his eyes is deeply knowing who that certain person is. We wonder why he acts like that and yet the answers are just written to his eyes. When we are happy, our eyes spark like stars do. When we are sad, eyes cry as much as rain pours. I love my eyes! I really do! Because without mine I can't see yours. In fact, many people said that my eyes are nice that's why I keep in mind that I must take good care of them. Take care of your eyes then >.<

It's been a while

since I had the interest to write something. I even stopped writing diaries and journals. I just have a lot of time but I can't spare a second writing and typing.I had so much to talk to since its been a while.

March 19, 2012. The last day that all of us have been together-the Lorenzo Knights-my dear classmates and my beloved friends. I miss them so much! I miss the times that we hang out together laughing in the corner. They are the persons who tease one another that brags the interest of the class. Whenever there are issues of a certain person, it can't be forgotten easily. Once you have something to tease to, you'll always be talked and laughed out by everybody. I know its not good to make fun of a person but it seems to be that they are the ones that will be carved to the minds of many. Things that come over to my mind related to them, draws a smile in my face even though I am alone. I remember how we laugh so loud in the pathways and corridors because of the jokes they cracked and the weird things they make. I put into the memory the moments when we listen and learn until I then remembered how silly we are during the tests and quizzes. Its undeniable that no one of us never cheated because teamwork has always been our hobby. The necks that grows tall, the eyes that zooms in and the heads that turn around are the manners that we do when we cheat. Parasites- the term used to describe most of us. From papers to pens to answers, we depend from one another. I know those are not good to boast to but I believe, they are the ones that strengthen our bond. No matter how I want to get over with that, I still miss them a lot.  Now, we still see one another because the world is so small. We are still keeping in touch through phones and internet. :)

April 11, 2012. The first day of my summer job as a tutor. The first thought that came to my mind when Vanessa texted me to be her bro's tutor in MATH 1 is that 'No way! I am not good at it!' (I never said that to her though) I had been already a tutor and I believe I did well but as time passed by, I lose confidence to myself. I am not sure if I deserve to be Von's tutor. Then, thoughts visit my mind 'This is an opportunity for me this summer' 'They trusted me that much' 'Summer is here! Be productive'  That's why, I am now studying Math to have lessons for Von. Every day in this month, I will spare time in teaching and studying for Von's sake because in the end,I know I will benefit something. Not just the salary that I will receive but the experience that can never be bought. Its pretty tiring I admit but I entered this track and I must finish it well. 

This summer, I have been watching Korean dramas! It has been always my hobby, to watch movies. Since the DVD player we use is not ours, we must make use of it. lol! That's my past time and it really satisfies me a lot. I know it brings quarrel to us siblings because they are not interested to the movies I watch but I can still find my time for my pleasure. I need to deal with them so that I will not be banned in watching movies.
This is how I spend my summer in front of the TV. XD The happiness I attain can't be compared so I always  warn my siblings not to mess with me. Though staying at home is a lil boring, I am still looking forward to our family outings. :D

So much for sharing. Thanks for listening! :D

Life is Like a Computer

Computers make it easier to do a lot of things, 

but most of the things they make it easier to do don't need to be done.  ~Andy Rooney

Priceless Life

Comparing life to a computer is much easier than comparing Mathematics and English. Computers are so in use of today. As we can see nowadays, every homes, offices and schools are contains computer due to its importance in everyday living. We can communicate to the persons whom we love, we can explore and surf the internet for the latest news and we can entertain our selves through songs, games, videos and even the social networking sites.  

     “What’s happening?” From Twitter. “What on your mind?” From Facebook. “Broadcast” From Youtube. I often ask myself when I can’t nearly describe and explain what’s currently going on when I know I’m bombarded with different things I can’t accommodate at the same time, “What’s happening?” Then, I answer my own question with, “Hey! You have been downloading all of the unnecessary files in your life yet all of that provides the virus that left you hanging." I realized that the answer is right, I kept myself becoming busy even though it is necessary for me to live to the fullest. They are just add-ons in my life that left me hanging between the lines.  "What's on my mind?" Apparently, I ask myself of this question. There are a lot of things in my mind as I walk along throughout my journey. Here are the moments I want to store in my life. The ones that made me laugh and smile. The bad times are the ones that I sent to my recycle bin because those are the things that pulls me from moving on. I definitely broadcast the ones that i wanted to share with everyone. Sharing is the key for me to build a relationship among others just like the online accounts I have. Through communication, I was able to make new friends and deal with new people. 

I love my COMPUTER. I love my LIFE. Simply take good care of your unit and with that, you may be able to take good car of your life. Live you life to the fullest. LIVE. LAUGH. LOVE.

One Direction- One Thing lyrics

I tried playing it cool
Girl when I'm looking at you
I can't ever be brave
Cause you make my heart race

Shot me out of the sky
You're my kryptonite
You keep making me weak
Yeah, frozen and can't breathe

Some things gotta give now
Cause I'm dying just to make you see
That I need you here with me now
Cause you've got that one thing

So get out, get out, get out of my head
And fall into my arms instead
I don't, I don't, don't know what it is
But I need that one thing
And you've got that one thing

Now I'm climbing the walls
But you don't notice at all
That I'm going out of my mind
All day and all night

Some things gotta give now
Cause I'm dying just to know your name
And I need you here with me now
Cause you've got that one thing


So get out, get out, get out of my head
And fall into my arms instead
I don't, I don't, don't know what it is
But I need that one thing
And you've got that one thing

So get out, get out, get out of my mind
And come on, come into my life
I don't, I don't, don't know what it is
But I need that one thing
And you've got that one thing

You've got that one thing

Get out, get out, get out of my head
And fall into my arms instead

So get out, get out, get out of my head
And fall into my arms instead
I don't, I don't, don't know what it is
But I need that one thing
And you've got that one thing

Get out, get out, get out of my mind
And come on, come into my life
I don't, I don't, don't know what it is
But I need that one thing
And you've got that one thing

One Direction — What Makes You Beautiful lyrics

You're insecure
Don't know what for
You're turning heads when you walk through the door
Don't need make up
To cover up
Being the way that you are is enough

Everyone else in the room can see it
Everyone else but you

[Chorus]
Baby you light up my world like nobody else
The way that you flip your hair gets me overwhelmed
But when you smile at the ground it aint hard to tell
You don't know
Oh Oh
You don't know you're beautiful

If only you saw what I can see
You'll understand why I want you so desperately
Right now I'm looking at you and I can't believe
You don't know
Oh oh
You don't know you're beautiful
Oh oh
That what makes you beautiful

So c-come on
You got it wrong
To prove I'm right I put it in a song
I don't know why
You're being shy
And turn away when I look into your eyes

Everyone else in the room can see it
Everyone else but you

[Chorus]
Baby you light up my world like nobody else
The way that you flip your hair gets me overwhelmed
But when you smile at the ground it aint hard to tell
You don't know
Oh oh


You don't know you're beautiful

If only you saw what I can see
You'll understand why I want you so desperately
Right now I'm looking at you and I can't believe
You don't know
Oh oh
You don't know you're beautiful
Oh oh
That's what makes you beautiful

[Bridge]
Nana Nana Nana Nana
Nana Nana Nana Nana
Nana Nana Nana Nana

Baby you light up my world like nobody else
The way that you flip your hair gets me overwhelmed
But when you smile at the ground it aint hard to tell
You don't know
Oh Oh
You don't know you're beautiful

[Chorus]
Baby you light up my world like nobody else
The way that you flip your hair gets me overwhelmed
But when you smile at the ground it aint hard to tell
You don't know
Oh oh
You don't know you're beautiful

If only you saw what I can see
You'll understand why I want you so desperately
Right now I'm looking at you and I can't believe
You don't know
Oh Oh
You don't know you're beautiful
Oh oh
You don't know you're beautiful
Oh oh
That's what makes you beautiful

This is my favorite song. After I heard this, my mind can't stop singing its lyrics.

Destined to Meet Again

Why does it take a minute to say hello and forever to say goodbye?

          To the persons who broke out my laughter, who wiped my tears, who drew a smile on my face and who loved me for who I am – classmates and friends, good day.

          The four years of relationship as friends and classmates or shall I say a family; have been a huge piece of my journey. These four years of our company taught me different things that mold me into the person I am now. Those years will remain as precious memories that I will be treasured until the stars stop shining.

          Our laughter that echoed though the corridors and pathways will always stay out loud in my heart because you never get old of cracking jokes and never failed in making me cackle. I considered these laughs made our bond tighter than ever that mile can never obliterate. Whenever I am bothered by my problems, the ones that made me forget those are our moments of giggles and chuckles.

          The moments we share when we learn made me realized that I really can’t stand alone without your assistance. Even when we cooperate in doing our assignments, quizzes, tests and examinations, I do learn a lot. The longer I spent my high school years with you, the more I got attached with you. This left me longing for your presence when you’re not around. I know that I need to be independent enough for my next destination but I am doing my best to deal with it.

          All of us have been through ups and downs but I know we never let anyone be left behind. We stand strong when we fight for our friends and keep going until we reach for what we all wanted. The spirit we have to fight for others made me proud and glad to be one of the BAMRians, SEianz, Loyolistas and Lorenzo Knights.

          It’s hard for every one of us to say goodbye to the ones who accepted us for who we are. But let’s think that this farewell will be another hello to the next part of our race in life. We must not be dismayed with goodbyes for the world is to small for us to stop believing and that we are destined to meet again someday.

Gotta Be You lyrics

Gotta BeYou by  ONE DIRECTION

[Liam]
Girl I see it in your eyes you're disappointed
'Cause I'm the foolish one that you anointed with your heart
I tore it apart
And girl what a mess I made upon your innocence
And no woman in the world deserves this
But here I am, asking you for one more chance

[Harry]
Can we fall, one more time?
Stop the tape and rewind
Oh and if you walk away I know I'll fade
'Cause there is nobody else

It's gotta be you
Only you
It's got to be you
Oh, Only you

[Liam]
Now girl I hear it in your voice and how it trembles
When you speak to me I don't resemble, who I was
You've almost had enough
And your actions speak louder than words
And you're about to break from all you've heard
Don't be scared, I ain't going no where

[Zayn]
I'll be here, by your side
No more fears, no more crying

 But if you walk away
I know I'll fade
'Cause there is nobody else

[All, Harry leading voice]
It's gotta be you
Only you
It's got to be you
Oh, Only you

[Zayn]
Oh girl, can we try one more, one more time?
One more, one more, can we try?
One more, one more time
I'll make it better
[All, Zayn leading voice]
One more, one more, can we try?
One more, one more,
Can we try one more time to make it all better?

[All, Harry leading voice]
'Cause it's gotta be you
Its gotta be you
Only you
Oh, Only you

It's gotta be you
Only you
It's got to be you
Oh, Only you

I do love this song because I felt I'm special and I could be that girl who will give a chance to be them.

The Smart Jollibee

Neil Stephen Luy: Being wise is his top cap. A charming face is his make-up. The energetic body is his shirt. Well, generosity is in his pant's pocket while kindness is in his shoes. 

Ever since we're freshmen, Neil is one of my companions. We are always together when we go home,stopping by in his popular store, the Buy Zone Enterprises. I know him well especially when it comes to food. Don't mess with him when his tummy is empty and really craving for food. He will always be described as chubby, jolly and witty. In our four years of company, he will always excel academically. He never gets lazy of studying whenever food is in front of him. Sssshhh! The tease that he had started to make a noise for me. Actually, Neil is so cute that I want him to hug everyday and take note, his clothes always smell nice because of downy. Every recess time or dismissal time, you will see him either at the HS or college kiosk and when nobody's there to accompany him, he will grab me and will whisper that he will treat me. Since I'm always up for treats, I will directly jump from my seat and walk with him. That is how I saw his generosity. His cute and charming personality will always stay in my chest of treasure.

Neil's blog

Speechless yet Overflowing Emotions

Tears roll down. Heart was stabbed a hundred times. Body got no energy. Heart got a ton of emotions yet even a single word, nothing comes out.

Whenever we fall, we are hurt.

Whenever we win, we are overwhelmed.

Whenever we lose, we are disappointed.

There's always a point in our lives that we can never define what we feel.  The emotions that fill our hearts are much heavy that nothing can bare. Even if we resist that hard feeling, the eyes merely show what it feels  inside. Cries end all of this feeling either tears of joy or tears of suffering.

Little Bro

He is the boy whom I care the most, Jayvee. My little brother who treats me like a princess. He makes me laugh and smile whenever I'm down. He never fail in supporting me whenever I do need assistance. As her elder sister, I want him to grow as a young man but I know it's hard for him to adjust with the two girls ahead of her. This is why, his actions and words are affected with girly thing. I really want him to be a real guy but I can't erase the facet that he has a half  gender. Even if that's his personality, I never doubt of loving him. This boy who always share hugs to me is conscious in neatness and arrangement in house. It always result to a cleaner work of him than mine. I accept him for who he is the way he loves me for who I am. He protects me the way our father protects us and that's what I really love about him, his sweet way of showing how important I am to him. 

I love you Jayvee. Your ate will always be here to guide you throughout your journey in life. Don't hesitate to run towards me whenever you need help.  

My Lola For All Seasons

Lola Azon is her name

In our village, she has fame.

The all time hobby she has is to care.

She deserves to be loved I swear.

My lola is so strong,

She carries a bucket of water in a stair so long.

Her profession is the best mother

People recognize her for her powerful prayer

My lola taught me how to respect

In house cleaning she got perfect check!

Singing is her talent,

I will never forget her old scent.

My lola never gets tired of sacrificing, 

Generosity is on her being.

She is funny I can say,

When there's music, she will really sway.

My lola's children maybe many

But she'll never forget a single thing 'bout them, really.

 Us, grandchildren can count on her

Whenever we got errands, she's there.

 My lola, you are a star,

You deserve an applause even from afar,

If I have hurt you, I'm so sorry, 

I love you so much Loly.

Rank Up

     Tetris Battle has been the popular game of the online networking site, Facebook. More than half of the facebook users are fond of the application services that facebook oferred and most of them has a tetris application on their list. Honestly, I allowed tetris battle on my account. I don't want it when the game became popular but when my brother and sister fight for the time to play tetris, I was interested. I thought, why would they fight for that game? On that time, I was also invited by my friends to play that because they usually talk of that rank-up and challenge thing. By then, I tried playing the game and I fall for it. It was just like something is pulling me to play not just once in a day but instead it became a routine for me everytime I sit in front of the computer. Guess what, the game that I snob became the matter that I was addicted. Before and after I sleep the blocks keep coming back on my mind and build a formation. I don't know why but I always wanted to sign in facebook just because of the battle. It is the reason why our keyboard broke down because of that feeling when we are really so enthusiastic to play. I do miss tetris when I'm away from the unit that leads me to imagine playing tetris in my  mind while the class is going on. However, when our internet connection was cut off, I learned how to deal with longing for tetris. I manage to stay away from addiction that I thought I won't fall before. Positive side : releases my stress and entertains me a lot. Negative side : distraction to one's study and keeps me away from outdoor activities.
     Tetris taught me different things, we must learn how to make use of different blocks to build something that is counted for us. We must always be alert and tactful in arranging our blocks so that in the end, the stars would be credited to us. 

Her Sister's Bestfriend

       In a home of  five members, two girls are called to be sisters. There's no single day that both of them start a fight. Ever since they were young, there will always be one who will cry loud. Their yayas would always get in between them so that the fight would be over. As they grow, their quarrels become the way for them to know  their sister more. Both of them already knew the weaknesses of one another. Now that they are learning how the world works, they built a stronger bond that no one could destroy. They found the intersection of their interests that lead them to become as sisters and bestfriends. Sometimes, they become partners-in-crime because they share some secrets that only the two of them know. Secrets that they share usually causes them to fight. The persons who know them definitely learned how both of them works out as bestfriends. They love each other so much that they will do things beyond their limits just to save one another. Misunderstandings will be left obvious when their house is quiet because the sisters are in a conflict which will zip their mouths. When the other is not around, one will always long for her presence. The laugh, tears, fights and love are their foundation why this relationship grow stronger.

      To my dearest sister,

             I love you and I always will. Maybe I am not that showy but I want you to know that there are no things that I can't do for you to keep you away from harm. I am always here as your bestfriend and sister and hope that you can always count on me.

Love,

Ate

Why would I be afraid?

     The cold wind that touches my face and arms and the darkness of the rainy night left me feel afraid. Sitting in this chair while making this kills my time thinking I'm all alone this time. I asked myself not just once. "Mom, Dad, where are you? " Even if I know they are not around. "Guys, are you there?" Asking again when I know the answer is not. 6:55 pm in my watch, still shaking from both fear and coldness. What if something will happen? What if I will be attacked by someone while I'm all alone in this house?I am not familiar with this feeling, that feeling when yes, you can do whatever what you wanted to but feeling empty because there's no point when you laugh loud but you are alone right there. 

     Staring at the screen keeps we wonder, what are they doing now? Are they happy this time? Maybe yes. All I know, the one who will never leave me is God. I asked myself, "Why would I be afraid?"

Our Journey Begins Here

Dear Diary,

        

       This day was both tiring and enjoying. I had appointments this day even though today is weekend. 

       First thing in the morning, I woke up at 7:30 when my schedule is 8:00. I just got few minutes to prepare and I know I will be late for today's practice for graduation songs. I thought I'm the only one who's so slow in making things work out. Here's Vanessa who texted me that we'll be going together to the practice so that its not so shy to face the others while we're so late. We arrived at school but we're not that late because there are also others who came late than us. The boredom on singing began! Gosh! I'm so tired lately in singing but I don't have choice because I have to. 11:00 when the practice ended. Our next trip was in ZGclix to print our pictures for the requirement  in USEP. 

       1:00 pm - the departure time that we had decided. Since Filipino time is always present in our clocks, the time we left Calinan is 1:30. By then, the trip with my companions was filled with laughter. I enjoyed the trip and I see that they also do. We have 2 rides before reaching the campus. On our second ride, no one knows where we will stop and fortunately, my seatmate on the jeepney is a USEPian. Since we have no choice but to ask her, I took the courage to make the step. We took some steps before reaching the USEP main, note, we walk under the heat of the sun. Sweat all over my body is going out. As the gate was on our sight, we saw 3 of our classmates coming out. They informed us that we must be registered online. That is why, we attacked the internet cafe in front of the school. We occupy the area and I feel so shy to the other cafe users because we are so noisy. It took us 20 minutes, I guess on registering. As we see the posters on the front gate, we feel proud on the persons who were acknowledged and we hope that in the near future, our names would be posted out there and will inspire others to also do good in study. We started working on our papers through crossing the guidance up to the other building to pay the exam fee. While we are walking, we noticed the facilities of the school which must be improved, examples are the CR and the classrooms. I don't know why but those made me hesitate in studying in the school but I believe its not the reason why I would go there, its the quality of Education that they can provide. As we finished the tasks, we are stranded by the rain. We are eager to go to the mall but the heavy rain stopped us there. As the rain stopped, we decided to go to the mall. We rode pedicabs.

        Gaisano Mall is waiting for us. And alas! we enjoyed strolling and laughing in that place especially when I am with y friends. I spent time having fun with them and I know those times are one of the precious moments  that I would treasure.  I guess the world is so small, we had met a lot of persons  whom we recognized. The day was all fun! We went home late because we found a hard time falling in a long line for our transportation. I'm thankful we are all safe. Thanks for the memories guys.  This day is where our journey begins for our next track in life.

Love, 

Jojie

Trending Account

     We can't deny the fact that teenagers are now exposed to high technology gadgets. One of which is the computers. Through computer, we can connect from one person to the other with the assistance of internet. We are able to communicate and to be entertained. This is how the generation evolves.Why do teens can't get rid of gadgets? Why do they keep logging in into different websites? What does keep them from this habit? 

I admit, I am also fond of these. I honestly can't live in a week without visiting my accounts in twitter, facebook and tumblr. Actually, I'm one of the millions who signed in into websites that we think may entertain us. I do release my thoughts through these even though they are publicly shown because I do believe, once I post my real opinions, I feel someone is listening to my side and there is someone who can truly understand what I feel. Actually, I also learned making used of it because of the people that surrounds me who are also into internet. They said, if you don't have one you are left behind my the time. Since everyone of them have one, I also get along with it because the topics that the people around you keeps uttering the updates from internet. Guess what? You will really become mute if you can't get along.


Obviously, my twitter page is inspired by the 5 lovely boys, One Direction. In here I found the most lovely friends and followers, the Directioners and we had built a family which we called 1Dfamily. AmaZAYN!

What Makes You Beautiful

  I am fat. I am curly. I am morena. I am me. I am different. I know that and I know each one of us is different from one the other. I believe I don't have clone because I do believe all of us is unique in our own way. You are pretty! You are humble! You are thankful! You are contented! That what makes you beautiful. 

Never say Never

   

       The word surrender must never be included in one's vocabulary. As what the say, As long as you breathe, you have hope. Even the world we reside now is full of trials, those are not reasons for us to stop moving. All roads have boulders, we must put that in mind. Thus, let's not take every problem as the ones that would stop us from breathing. You are not alone in dealing with these struggles and that problem you are currently encountering is not as vast as others face. 

       I just wanted to share something about never giving up. Lately this morning, I really wanted to absent from school because I lost my CAT shirt and CAT belt (a little thing huh?). I thought of a lot of consequences if I will not attend school today, first, I can't join my classmates in the Astronomy Fare which cost 200 pesos (I thought if wasting money and time)  next, I would miss again another attendance because I was already absent yesterday afternoon and lastly, what if there would be quizzes or tests? (I would lose points right?). I cried , I rolled, I sobbed. I really don't know what to do. Then I realized, stop it! You are not a kid anymore! I stood , get some blouses and iron them and I thought I am already done because I damaged 2 of the blouses that I iron. So unfortunate, I think. But there's not time to keep looking afar. I will be late if I do continue being idiot out there. I came to school 10 minutes before the bell and alas! I am the only stupid who wear improper uniform. I feel being outcast among all of my classmates. BUT! I just keep walking until my best friend offered me her extra shirt. So lucky! I then realized, there really no reason to surrender. These are just challenges to test our ability to stand strong any trial. Fail? Try Again! Fail? Try Again! Success is waiting.

They Stole my Heart

 

ONE DIRECTION 

They had just caught my eye

All I did was just to sigh

I love the way how they smile

I can't get away with them even in a little while

Their songs keep echoing in my mind

In their personality I bind.

Songs they had sung,

Made me want them to stay young.

This fandom I am in, 

Always left me feel i win.

I found a family in the internet,

1Dfamily is what they set.

 

 

 

Student's Absence

"I am sick"
"I am not feeling well"
"I have a stomach ache, head ache, tooth ache"

Those are just few of the reasons of students nowadays when they tend to absent in school. All aches occur when they find excuses but those are just false statements to hide the real reason of their absence. As we all now, the teenagers of today's generation are much exposed into different temptations. Even their parents worked hard to send them into school, they chose the ways how to satisfy their pleasure. The selfishness they act stab a knife in their parents' back because most of the guardians doesn't even know what they children do since they are bombarded by their work stuffs. This attitude must not be tolerated by anyone due to the fact that many youth now are craving to enter school but because of poverty, they were deprived to attain education. The truth is, the irony of life is unfair to humanity. Youth who wanted to study, work while students who take for granted study, play. Students who are able to attend school are so lucky to attain education and have the chance to be provided with a brighter future but most of them don't realized its importance that leads them to be tempted away from school. Even a little matter like absence in school is already a big deal, in fact, the 12/11 hours of learning is wasted when we find excuses from school.
