#8 An Inspirational Story
" Are you going to finish strong? " This is the first time I've watched this motivational video. I was so moved, emotionally and spiritually by this man- the man with no legs, no arms. How fortunate we are to have complete body parts but still we keep on complaining about single things which we thought are of no cure. But this guy is incomplete but thought us a lesson we could forever keep.
"So what do you do when you fall down?" "Get back up. Everybody knows to get back up." Yes that's right. When we fall, we always learn to get up. But in his case, it's really different. I mean. it's never easy to live life if we were in his shoes but he never thought of the negative side. Instead of worrying about his condition, he served himself as our inspiration. He woke our hearts up that whenever we feel we're incomplete, God will always fill the missing piece. That life doesn't end right then and there if there's something in you that's missing. Life will never stop unless you will. But as long as you live, your life is still running.
I realized that life is a matter of choice. If you decided to be unhappy, then you will be. But if you remained positive and always see the brighter side of life, you will never get miserable. Staying alive, doing good things, living life to the fullest are just one of the many things you can do to inspire others. If they see you smiling at your dull moments, they will feel relieved that despite the problems you're holding on right now you can manage it and never let it dig you emotionally. And of course don't forget to talk to God, tell Him what you are feeling right now and He will listen. Thank Him for whatever He has done in your life. Never doubt His capacity to help you because God is very almighty. With God, nothing is impossible.

#6 I'M DORA, THE EXPLORER!
I love Dora! She's really the most adventurous cartoon character that I love! I'm one of her fans because I have the same characteristics with Dora too, explorer!
Last September 29 was our city fiesta. Me and my crazy friends were strolling around the city that night. We were super excited to go our destination. We decided to ride 2 "sikads" because we can't fit in just one and since it's just one ride away from 'that' place. But one amusing thing happened which made us all shocked! I saw a phone in the middle of the road. I can see it's a touch screen, newly bought because it is still in a good condition and it's really an expensive phone. I said "Look! There's a phone!" The drivers of the sikad were in a rush of getting the phone. They are so desperate to have the phone that they almost fought in the middle of the road. I chilled them down and said they'll have an agreement upon reaching our destination. So they were calmed down and my friends were like saying "We suppose to have the phone! If only you had quicker eyes than the 2 idiots!" I laughed because of the fact that my friends were also interested with the phone. And when we reached 'there' I let them agree to take the phone and whatever the value of the phone is they will promise to give each other equal share. But I realized, what I did was totally bad and I messed up the owner of the phone. I was thinking if I was the owner of the poor phone dropped in the middle of nowhere, I would really be freaking out because of the important files I have and other blah blah blah's inside it. But it's just too little too late, and what's done is done. So I get over it, and I know the phone went to the hands of bad people. I felt bad but there's nothing I can do no more.

#5 GOD IS MY HERO
What is a hero? What action does one take to become a hero? Who are these heroes that you hear everyone talk about, but never see? The word hero is passed around too much these days. A hero is not a football player that scores the game-winning touchdown or the goaltender who saves his team from a loss. A hero is usually an ordinary person that did extraordinary things. A true hero is really never a hero at all; at least not in their own mind. Source: http://blogcritics.org/culture/article/what-is-a-hero/#ixzz1bUtSIvwb
I can somehow agree or disagree to what this article sadi about "hero" of today. But for me, my number one hero is our Father God.
I consider God as my hero because He did, and forever will do good things not just to me but for everyone of us. God extended His hands to help each and everyone of us. Whenever I felt like no one's around, my hero is always there to rescue me in my loneliness. He is my source of inspiration. He fills my spirit with His almighty power. His divine revelation opened my eyes to the reality. And His kind-heart saved us from all our sins.
Whenever I draw to God, with or without problems, I can still feel Him as my hero and my saving grace. He made all things good and bad things are there to drive us away from Him and it's a matter of choice whether we decide to be tempted on this evil spirits. That's why He is my hero. Simple as that, nothing more, nothing less.

#4 LIFE IS FOR LIVING
This homework is pretty sensitive, especially to those who have lost someone important and relatively close member of the family. Talking about having close encounters with the dead people is not a joke. My hair shivered and I had goose bumps, I guess I had second thoughts of doing this assignment but I'd just give it a shot.
Last year, I watched a movie entitled Charlie St. Cloud starring Zac Efron as the main character. Charlie St. Cloud is a young man overcome by grief at the death of his younger brother. So much so that he takes a job as caretaker of the cemetery in which his brother is buried. Charlie has a special lasting bond with his brother though, as he can see him. So Charlie St. Cloud has been given the gift of seeing his deceased brother, named Sam. Part from it was to continue the bond that they used to have before his brother left him. They communicate like they're in their normal state. For him to be able to see Sam, there must be no one around. They act like any ordinary brothers playing in the sidewalk. They made each other fulfilled with their presence. But when a girl named Tess entered Charlie's life, this made him choose between seeing Sam every day or go with the girl he loves. But one day, Charlie and Tess were out for a date that Charlie forgot that it's already late and he needs to go to see his brother. He can't tell the truth since this is the biggest secret of his entire life and they made an agreement with his brother that no one should know about it. Charlie then arrived very late at their meeting place. So Sam didn't appear at all. Sam felt that Charlie already forgot about him. But after all, Charlie didn't. But the day came for Charlie to decide on which road to pass. If he'll go for seeing a dead person, or living with the one he loves the most.
Life, is a matter of choice. Live as if it is your last day here on Earth. If I were Charlie, I know how hard it is for me to leave my brother, but he is already dead in the first place. So even though it's painful in my part, I will accept the fact that he's no longer existing. That he is already dead and there's nothing I can do to save him back. Life is for the living and not for the dead. But we still commemorate them by remembering all the good memories they have shared to each one of us. Close encounters with the third kind is something very sensitive, like I said to those who have experienced once or who knows, twice or more. But as for my case, I say I haven't tried any. If I will be given the chance to meet such shivering experience, I hope I can be able to address something that messenger would be saying to me. And for those people who have already passed away, may you all rest in peace. You are already in God's most holy presence. And for the living, value the life that you have right now. Don't flood yourselves with all the problems. Don't worry it's not just you, I have mine too. Don't be sad as if you're carrying the entire universe. Just go with the flow because we can never tell!

I stop to say Thank you Mom, Dad, Sis
BLOOD IS ALWAYS THICKER THAN WATER. Blood refers to to our family. This blood sustains the walls that builds our HOME. Inside a beautiful home is a happy family living in it. They may be rich, middle class, or poor, as long as the people living inside it are merry and joyful and full of love to one another.
Our family is composed of four. My mom, my dad, my sister and me. I can say that we were able to build up a great foundation and bond. Our families are our source of strength. Whenever we feel happy, sad, angry, surprised, and along with all other emotions, it's in our family that we shower the most.
I can see that some families lose contact with their sons and daughters once they get to the maturity stage. Probably some of these sons and daughters are already in the peak of their careers in profession, and some of them probably, but I hope they won't, forget and abandon their mom and dad. People in today's generation, value less their families. I don't see anything that would lead to this situation, but as far as I am concerned, families right now don't build up a strong bond anymore. Unlike before, we are used to great family ties. We love to stick to our families wherever we go, and we always feel the security they have for us. It's just to saddening that, as we grow up, it's our parents who were taking good care of us and in return, as they grow old, it's us who will be doing the counterpart.
As of this moment, my sister is turning 27 this year and I am already 17 years old. We have a 10-year age gap. And 10 years from now, I am aware that my parents will be old already, and as of now, I have set my mind to the things that I want to do in the future. I once said to myself that as soon as I get my job, settle for the future, I will never break the promise that I gave to my parents and that is to build a new house. This house will serve as my gift to them in return of all the blessings and guidance they showered upon me. I know time, and seasons change but my mind is already set and ready for this. It's not about the money, the luxury, the fame, it's all about valuing my family more than I value myself. I will be taking good care of them the way they took care of me when I was young. I want to give them back all the expenses they made just to let me go to a very precious school. For giving me a better life and better future.
I know I am not that expressive and vocal when it comes to my family but I am loyal and honest to them. I want to express my gratitude through a letter, a letter full of emotions. I will show them how much i care for them by remembering all the good memories we had before and I will always obey them. Because I know that whatever they say will always be for the betterment of my whole being.
Words can never express all of the things I want to say to them. Words and actions should go together. I am happy that God gave me my family. I'm happy for the life I have right now. And I am looking forward for a better future living with them. I LOVE YOU MOM, DAD AND SIS!

#2 Can I consider myself a good reader and writer?
I STRONGLY BELIEVE THAT, I AM A GOOD READER, AND A GOOD WRITER!
With all due respect to all who's gonna be reading my blog, and with all the confidence I have right now, I can really say that I am a good reader and a good writer. Why? It's simply because I just love to do both stuffs! There's no need for me to explain all the theories that I know just to make me convince you that I really am good in both aspects. So, need I say more?
Some people would say that reading is boring. But I just want to tell you that reading for me is the door to the world of vocabulary. The more I read, the more I get information, and the more I get information, the more I learn new things. It's just a cycle wherein you never regret why it's happening all over again, because you can get something out from it.
I always love to record all the stuffs that happened to me everyday. Good, bad, funny, embarrassing, or whatever. All those stuffs are stored inside my precious diary/day-to-day-planner. I record all the memories that I encounter. I sometimes laugh at my old posts whenever I get the chance to read it all over again. It's good to reminisce memories especially if it leaves a great impact in your life. All the written outputs I made were mostly in English. I realized that each time I write a something in my precious diary, my grammar is improving. Before I used to repeat most of the same words like the adjectives. But now, how I love to use the synonymous terms of the words that I thought before were the only words that I can say. HAHAHA!
So, these are the reasons why I consider myself as good in reading and writing. I believe that God gave me the capability to see and touch so I'll make use of the blessings He showered upon me. I'm glad that I made it. I'm happy that I have the abilities to do so. Even though I think I'm already good with this, I know there's still a room for improvement. So I'll continue reading and writing because these things make me happy. And no one can ever stop me from doing this :)
