Reflection101 (^o^)




            Yahoo! Free at last! It’s been too long since my schedule was not full. I am thanking God because finally I’m free to my hectic schedules. But I can’t still believe that 4th grading period is now over, all those busy and stressing days are now being paid off! Finally AGGRADWAR NAKON! (^_^)

            Time runs so fast that I haven’t even noticed that I am now running out of time to be with precious and silly best friends and classmates whom I grew up physically and academically. I owe them my very unforgettable life in high school. They helped me in the happiness as well as in sadness. I will surely miss them all specially the smiles, laughter, tears and crazy moments we shared for four long years. IV – MARTINELLI ROCKS! Labyusagad! :*

            The only thing that I've learned during the 4th grading period (aside from our lessons in our 10 different subjects) is to HAVE FUN and ENJOY the limited time we have. EXPLORE and DISCOVER new things because life is unpredictable. Life is too short for us to waste every single moment life have given us. FORGIVE those who committed sin to you and ask forgiveness to those whom you committed sins. FORGET the failures you committed and be happy because you’ll never know what exactly will happen tomorrow.


            Always put a HAPPY FACE – like this oh! (^_^), and AIM HIGH! FLY! SOAR! Always keep in your heart our dear Alma Mater, ILOCOS SUR NATIONAL HIGH SCHOOL!  

My Dream, My Future \(*0*)/



            I am not waking up every day to please everyone to like me. I am waking up every day to reach the brightest star in the sky which I named SUCCESS.

It took me a lot of time to really think what I really want to be in the future. One night, way back when I was in grade 5, I asked myself and crazily answer back: To be a doctor? Or Nurse? I’m afraid staying in hospital will make me sick, so my answer’s no. How about a Teacher? Well, to be honest I don’t want to prolong my stay in any school anymore, being a teacher is a great profession but I don’t trust myself being a teacher so no. What if a Police? I don’t think so. Be an Architect? Or Engineer? Not my type. How’s being a Lawyer? Well maybe yes, maybe no. How about an Accountant? That’s it! I will be an Accountant. And from that night I have already dreamed being an accountant, me wearing a tidy fabulous uniform, working in my own office, sitting in a swivel chair reading documents.

I want to become an accountant because it has math, and I love math (^_^) and I love to be in an office, working for my clients. I also want to have my own family, but before that I want to focus on my life first; I need to pay my parents for the efforts and love they showered me from the moment I was born. I also want to work hard to buy my own car and of course my dream house.

We are the painter, writer and director of our own lives. We are the captain of our own boat. Dreaming is free but life doesn’t end by just dreaming, let us DREAM and ACHIEVE for it. In our journey of achieving our dreams, let us not forget to look back from where we started, always keep your feet in the ground, and be thankful to every person we encountered, whether they have been good to you or not because they have still contributed in to your success.


Think positive and positive things will happen to you. J

Change: It Starts With Me

   


         Change is not a joke. It’s not that easy.

            Our nature now is being abused, pollution is everywhere but when will we be contented? Mother Nature suffered enough; let us not wait until the moment wherein there is nothing left to save.

            I am concerned to our Mother Nature and I know deep in my heart that I can help to save her. Change starts with me by simply letting you know that we need to work now to save Mother Nature. I can help by starting to be conscious about our environment. It is a change for the better. So everyone, let’s start to reuse, reduce and recycle. Let us also throw our waste properly and let us lessen the use of vehicles and burning of plastics.


            Let us care for our Mother Nature for a better and productive future. Change starts with me, you and everybody. Let’s work hand in hand because team work makes the dream works. Let us make sure that a safe nature is our future. (^_^)

New Year! New Me! *\(^o^)/*

          A person will never change not unless something happens to him or her. Well for me, I need a change, simply because I want to make this year better than last year.

          Last year was awful, so this year I will make sure that it will be awesome! To start everything, I change my hair style even though I hate the feeling when my hair is being cut but I want to start my new year with a new look, so bye-bye long hair. . . Hello short hair. Cute!!!! (^_^) I love it actually. I hope my hair will give me more inspiration in facing all the difficulties that I will encounter along the way. I don't have a new year's resolution this year for a change because ever since I've been having one. As of now I'm trying to change some of my attitude because some of it does not help me in achieving my dreams. Laziness, that's the number one attitude I want to change because sometimes I am lazy doing my school requirements that sometimes I end up cramming the day after the submission. I also want to remove my attitude being a cry baby because I look so pathetic. Hahahaha. . . . and sometimes I look funny. Well, it is still too early to conclude everything because it's still January you know, I still have 11 months more!

       Well, I'm only wishing good luck to myself for this year. Hoping God will give me more blessings and strength to face all the difficulties that I will encounter along my way to success. I love myself! Haha. . . This is real. This is ME. I'm exactly where I'm suppose to be now. You only have to options, it's either be my friend or be your worst enemy. Hahahaha! I'm only kidding. Just be yourself and just love me the way I look, act and talked and we'll be friends. (^_^)

How The Time Past

          3rd grading period! It was kinda fast, look how the time past by while we are all having fun with every memories we're making.

          I'm kinda happy yet a little bit sad because my time being with my classmates and best friends are running out, but behind all of these I am happy having great companions like them, I have learned a lot from them and most specially I have achieved a lot of success because of them. They help me to face all my difficulties in life, they never let me feel like I'm alone. Well, I have learned one thing from this grading period and it is to do all my school requirements ahead of time so that I will not end up cramming during the day after the submission. It's kinda my attitude so this coming 4th grading period I will try to do my best in doing all my school requirements ahead of time.

          This is my last shot to prove myself. It is my only chance to improve whatever I need to improve and this is my last chance to make everything okay between my best friends and classmates. It's my last step before going to college. Good Luck for me! (^_^)
