About this BLOG Project

This BLOG(Barkada log) Project was introduced by our English teacher, Sir Elmer. For me, this is very easy if only we make an entry every 2 days or any style you want, just make sure you won't waste your time sitting, playing computers games, chatting with friends and so much.
Having a blog is very fun and educational for me cause not only you can enhance your typing skills and your ability in making entries, you could also learn so many stuffs like putting cool back grounds, avatars and so much more which is connected to this blog. The reason why I also love this is because whenever you have still time lest after your blog, I can still use the extra time to research in our assignments or other projects or have fun by playing computer games, chatting, watching you tube and so much more. You can also use the extra time to customize your account.
Many of my classmates complain about this BLOG Project because you have to make 5 entries per week and every entry you have needs to have 500 words or above, but who is really to blame, us or the teacher?
Well if you ask me, I think the one that is to blame is ourselves. For I always say to myself that I'll just make this later and that later becomes tomorrow and that tomorrow becomes next week and so on( I think that some of my classmates has this kind of habit). If I have only made 3 entries per week during those days, I would not be writing this blog at a very late time. Because of this project, I have to skip studying other subjects just to finish this blog and I have to sleep very late but I can understand other people that does not really want this project for this is very expensive and can affect our health very much. Sometimes, I get angry to the people saying that this project is expensive yet they always rent computer's at a long period of time just to play Internet games.
I wish the people reading this entry will understand why I wrote this kind of entry. This is only for their own good. I really think that some of my advices here will really help you in making this blog project but is this blog really important in our subject? Mostly, some people say that this is not important, for the lessons in English are supposed to be about nouns, verbs, pronouns and so much more about words and not about cool back grounds and many entries.
Yes, these blog maybe educational and it can enhance you skills in typing but, what if you are a poor student,very poor that you have to collect garbage just to have something to eat by selling this garbage to the dump site and you would walk a kilometer just to get to school, would you be happy about this or you prefer the simple lessons given by teachers that uses books.

Unforgettable Sinulog Celebration

This story of mine happened when I was still a Gr. 5 student in my Alma Matter, Punta Princessa Elementary school. Many things really happened to me which were very dangerous for me.
I had two experiences, the first happened in the Abellana Sports Complex for our practice in the Sinulog. I really has no experiences in going back and forth so my mother told me to wait for her. We practiced there for 5 consecutive hours and after the practice, everybody was already starting to go home except me. I was very tensed at those times for it was already dawn, at those times, I already made three choices; look for help, stay there and wait for my mom or go home without any supervision.
I did not choose the first choice I had for if I did, they would think that my parents are irresponsible. My 2nd choice was the best one but I choose the 3rd one for I was not wise enough. Good thing for me, I managed to memorize some things that can tell if am I still on the right side of the road or not while riding in the jeep. At that time, I made 6 J-walkings for I did not know that this was a crime. As my distance from Abellana got longer, I got more tensed for I no longer see the signs I saw while I was on the jeep. After 30 minutes of walking, I decided to rest for a while. At those times, I already wanted to breakdown but suddenly, an old lady came near me beg for food. I was able to give a rice in a plastic, I had no other food to give to the poor lady. After I gave her the food, I made up a good idea, I went back to the places I have past and fortunately, I found Dr. Uy's clinic which made me very happy for I already knew where to go. I walked for 1 hour but I did not mind how long the time and the place is, all that matters for me at that time was to get home. On my way home, I met my fat classmate Ercel and gave me a treat. When I reached home, I immediately lay down our bed.
After the Sinulog Mardigra, our parish made a parade, the drummers of our Sinulog and of the parish were the same so I really followed them. I was with my friends at those time but I did not notice that after few minutes, they have already went back home leaving me behind. We passed by a dark river bank for there were no people living there, but I was not afraid for we were many at those times. When I noticed that I no longer see the faces of my friends, I started to be restless. I asked the drummers if they will still go back to the parish but they said no. This gave me no choice but to pass the dark river bank. I took off my slippers so my speed would be added and I brought a piece of wood in case if there are dogs, snakes and I also waited for a car to pass by to give me light. One car passed by and I automatically followed the car and the driver of that particular car was shocked when he saw me running so fast in a middle of a dark place. Luckily I was able to come back home for dinner.
I think that the patron, Sr. Santo Nino is really testing my braveness and fortunately, I was able to past the test.

My Elementary Life 2(IV,V and VI)

This is already the half of my elementary years and because of this, I really have joined many activities for time is just short for a silly kid like me.
In Gr. IV , our section name was Respectful. Remember our team RANJ, that them did no longer exist for the A of our team, Androd was no longer our classmate but our friendship and skills remained the same. A new Era was already beginning for we, my classmates during Gr. 4, were not classmates in Grades 1,2 and 3 because we were divided into two sections, i also found new set of friends, and my friends were Ronald, Christian and James. Christian and James, were very new to me for we were not classmates except for now. Christian is a good boy but gets irritated very fast and James is a fat intelligent guy and has a really good talent in telling jokes. There was one time I choked because of his silly jokes and as I have noticed, every time we would stop laughing, Christian would say that there was an angel that past in front of us which makes me chill and shaky for a moment.
The games that were popular at those time was “Labu-labu” and a game that we originally created by us, the “Matrix-matrix”.
“Labu-labu” is a game where you can use any palm size ball and then you try to hit a person involed in the game with this ball. There was a time were we played this game after the rain, the ground was really wet and muddy but this time, our enemies where the higher years. All of my classmates uniform, including mine, got dirty because whenever someone gets the ball, he then puts the ball on the mud and then hit it to another person. It was fun even though we did not even hit a single enemy on their uniform.
“Matrix matrix” is just similar to the previous game but this one really needs teamwork.
One year after, we became Gr. 5 students and Mam. Loperez was our teacher. She was really a brutal teacher, know why? Just read this, she was recording our grades and whenever she calls a student, the student the feeds back to her their grades and every time someone say his grade, we would then say the word “TY”. We did that for several time and we did not notice that she was already angry. My classmates stopped but I did not which made her very angry and threw keys at me but fortunately, I managed to dodge it.
Nothing much really did happen except the graduation day. I thought that I would be happy because I will no longer see their faces again specially the bullies. Few days after the Graduation, that was only the time that I realized that they were really important to me.
How I wished that I could go back to time and maximize the time where we were still friends but where ever they may be, near or far, they will be always in my heart.

Soccer: My Sport

Soccer was created during the Han dynasty in china, 200 BC. This game was originally Tsu Chu (Tsu means to kick while Chu denotes to a ball made of leather). As time goes by, the game and its name changes like any other game does. In America and English speaking countries, this game is called soccer but in elsewhere, this is called FUTBALL. This is also the only game where you can use every part of your body to hit the ball, except you hands. Only the goalkeeper can use his hands during a game. The strikers or the forwards make the goal while the last men and goalkeeper tries to defend their goal area. The midfielder plays both last men and as forwards.
The reasons why I love this game is not only it is the most popular game in the world, it only requires less rules which can make you move your body any way you like and SIZE does not matter.
The best forward for now is Rhomphete while the best goalkeeper is Amil in our school, both of them are third year students. I have an aim to be the best midfielder or best last man.
Soccer may be fun but sometimes, it can also hurt you in many ways. For example, Goerge hit the ball so hard that when the ball hit my “BALLS”, I was on the floor trying not to shout for there were students taking their tests. Another is when you have a team mate that is very shelfish during a game or practice (in dialect, we call this kind of guys buaya). Like “Mr. Croc”, he always shows off his skills and whenever we have practices, he asks for a ball to come near him, he doesn’t get it for himself. He really has a lot of pride for himself and it is also because of him why I was not able to play soccer in the intramurals which made me very depressed and discouraged. They lost there game during the intramurals because of his selfishness, good for him.
For 3 consecutive months, I was not able to play soccer for I vowed to myself not to play soccer any more until Sir. Salera, our PE teacher said to us that we would have a tournament against ourselves. We were divided into 4 groups and the teams are the following:
White Madrid: team Capt. Andre
Members: Louei
Ian
George
John R.
Black Hawk Down: team Capt. Me, John J
Members: Jay
Rieland
Jade
Fidel
Elmar
Blue Jeans: team Capt. Nikolai
Members: Raul
Kevin
Reiner
Rary
Ariel
De Greenation X: team Capt. Psalm
Members: Paolo
Jhul
Dan
Raymark
Our team was not that strong but because we believed in one another’s abilities, we were able to win the championship in the round 1 undefeated.
After the tournament, Sir announced to us that there will be another tournament but this time, our enemies will be the higher years. Each year level will be divided into two groups, Team A(the ROOKIES) and the Team B(the BIGGENERS).
We really had a big chance on winning the championship if only Fidel did not forget what he learned from the other games but it was just OK, we still won 3rd price and we had better results than of team A.
So, therefore I conclude that the important thing in a team is not the MVP, not the coach but the team itself and its teamwork.

My Imagination

Imagining is one of my favorite hobbies, just by imagining, you can go every where you like, do anything you like and be anything you like but other things are not really meant to be imagined just to do something bad (I think you know what I mean).
For now, my mind centers on someone special, and that someone is “Miss MGDA”, the girl of my life for now. She’s always on my mind and because of this; I just can’t prevent imagining her. One of the things I imagine about her is she and I playing internet games together or chatting with each other. Another is both of us are warriors and we are trying to save the Earth from vicious out laws! But she is not the only one I imagine, there are a lot of things in my mind, and every imagination I have has a purpose. For example, I sometimes imagine if I only had super powers, I can be able to kill or change the habits of the gangsters, hold uppers, snatchers and so much more. Another is I imagine that if I were the president, I would have done a lot of good things, I would make projects that would improve our country’s economy. I can also dictate senators to stop there commercial ads, instead, they would rather use the money to help the people that are in need. Why? Let me explain, there are 12 senatorial candidates and each of them uses 200 million pesos or more just to make a commercial ad so, 12 times 200 million is more then enough to help the poor people in the country.
I can really say that I really have a nice imagination but because of this my parents and relatives sometimes say that I’m a little bit crazy. One of their references was during my young age, I use to dream what other kids would dream but the thing is, every dream I have, fear comes into my heart and after my dream, I suddenly will cry not knowing the reason why. I can’t call these dreams a nightmare because these are not really scary. I have experienced this for 5 times but the most mind twirling dream that I had was the 3rd one. My dream was like this, I was wearing a inspectors suit with an magnifying glass. I was looking for something then suddenly, a hair from a book caught my attention. Curiously, I pulled the hair off and suddenly, there were a lot of things around me and after that, I cried so hard that it woke my mother up in the middle of the night. She gave me a rosary but I kept on saying that I don’t need anything.
Because of this incidents, some of my relatives concluded that I need someone to analyze me but I’m not really crazy, I’m just a little unwell. I know you don’t care but soon enough your goanna think of me, the different side of me.
For now, I just hope that my relatives would stop thinking that I’m a little of crazy because it is already hurting me and I to myself must lessen the level of my imagination.
I also hope that my imagination for our good of our country will come true not only in my dreams but also in reality by helping one another fulfill their dreams.

My Elementary Life 1(Gr. I,II and III)

Oh, my elementary years, it was all fun and everything. Running from corner to corner in the room and interacting with my fellow classmates.In my former school, PPES (Punta Princessa Elem. School), many things happened to me which I will never forget. The reason why I always keep these memories because every important event that has happened to me, it gives me many lesson which I have learned through this events.Back when I was still a Grade I pupil, our section name was Gentleness and Mam. Sabado was our adviser. I can’t possibly forget her for she was the one who let me ate my paper airplane. She made me that kind of stuff because while we were praying, I was making that paper airplane; I guess I really did deserve that treat. After on e year, I became a Gr. II student and our section name was Self-Reliance. This was the year I first got attracted to a girl; her name was Fatima Grace Go, she was as pretty as Cinderella for me but this was not the most memorable thing, it was when our teacher came while I was sleeping. She said to my classmates not to wake me up, she will only do it by her self. Know what she did? She used her large voice to say this phrase, “Hala nay ungo” which made me awake and I raise my hand up and said “Mam!”. I was really humiliated at that time but still, I was a little bit happy about it. Grade III was fun but the next year was more fun. Our section name was Grateful and this was the time where the great “RANJ” was created. RANJ stands for:R-Ronald has the ability to bend his body low enough to evade enemies’ attacks.A-Androd is the fastest and the most fearless runner in our team.N-Nathaniel has the ability to scare off enemies.J-Jaasiel, me; I have the ability to evade attacks by going beside near objects then I try to loose them by turning left and right.Our group was the best when it comes to the game “Bahaw-bahaw” and “Pulis-pulis”. Even if our enemies are 6-8, they don’t have a match on us because we were the fastest and the slickest group in our batch but unfortunately, our team only lasted for a year because Androd was no longer our classmate but our skills and friendship never died until now, maybe.
This was also the year where I started to play soccer. As usual, Andre was the best player in our batch. My first heading, the skill in using the head in hitting the ball, really made me dizzy for the ball hit the upper part of my head which is supposed to be hit by the forehead. The ball bounced so hard that its bounce was higher than an electric post.
This 1st ,2nd ,and 3rd year in my school was fun but the other succeeding years were simply awesome.

Friends

What kind of friends do you have? What do you do? What is your group name?
Here in UP high school, specially the Freshes, there are a lot of set of friends her not fraternities. These groups are the:
The Artiztaz: Is said to be composed of sossy people.
Likes to talk about actors/actresses and movies.
VIP: Composed of “lahugers”, students that graduated from Lahug Elementary
School.
Delegates: Composed of silly but intelligent students.
Buntis Five: Composed of 5 students from Villamor those are very naughty.
Loves to play soccer.
Beat the Geeks: Composed of Pokemon lovers.
Makes codenames in criticizing someone.
BHS: A group of mixed up personalities.
This is where I belong.
(Note: These groups are only in the 1st years)
Each group has its own spots; it is where the group hangs out. Unlike fraternities, whenever a group meets another group, they just say hi to each other. These groups are made to know where you belong. For example, Jade loves playing Pokemon games so he belongs to the group “Beat the Geeks”.
The craziest group for me is our group, BHS, for this is the only group where fights and quarrels mostly occur due to our diff. personalities. The members are:
Jay, AKA “wadac”: A silent but silly kind of guy, doesn’t reveals his secrets even though you will beg to him.
Rieland, AKA “durian”: A super rich but fat and smelly guy that uses money to tempt my fellow group mates.
Paolo, AKA “taulava”: A small but terrible guy. Has good looks and likes to collect and select girls.
Raymark, AKA “talong”: A good guy very hard to communicate with.
Fidel, AKA “babuy”: A smart but corny kind of guy.
Me, AKA “itlog”: A good guy that gets angry easily.
Our group really loves teasing people even by ourselves which causes big and small problems. There was one time where Paolo teased me so much that I punched his bag so hard, it was hard enough to break his pens. Few minutes later, he reported me to the adviser which scolded us both. Another was when I was so irritated to Rheena’s voice which made me tell something bad to her. After that conflict, she reported me to the Student Welfare, and know what happened? Mdm. Gallo told me to shake hand with her which made me very embarrassed because she is a girl and I am a boy. After the hand shaking, my classmates said to me that I had a crush on her even though it is not true, she may be beautiful and all but I have already someone in my heart for now, this someone is “Miss MGDA”. It was still fun even though I was humiliated. I guess all I can do for now is to avoid teasing people who doesn’t want to be bothered.
Though it all, the rise and fall, we, my friends, still managed to be relaxed and confident in everything that we do and we were able to go on with our friendship.
Teasing with other people specially your friends might be fun but don’t try to tease them when they are not in mood or your face might be destroyed.

My Love Affair With MV DOULOS

MV Doulos which was built and constructed in 1914 and is only two years younger than the Titanic docked on Pier 1, Gate Entrance her in Cebu. It carried and conveyed six thousand book titles across the oceans and reached different parts of the globe and world. MV Doulos holds the title, the “World’s Largest Floating Book Fair”. It had three hundred fifty volunteers from 50 countries which live and work together onboard. Doulos aimed and seek to bring knowledge, help and hope to the nations. Since 1977, Doulos has visited more than one hundred countries, welcoming over 19 million visitors onboard. Doulos carried a stock of half a million books for sale, covering subjects such as Science, Education, Sports, Cookery, History, Technology, Photography, Christian Living, a wide range of Children’s Literature and others.On the 12th day of February 2007, University of the Philippines (High School Department) decided to explore the beauty of MV Doulos. We shared a lot of fun and amusement together with the Doulos books and the international crews and staffs. I was very happy for those times because that was my second time to be in a ship. They were selling mouth watering deserts but I did not buy anything because I had no money. We read different informative books, which contained a lot of knowledge, awareness to the community etc., and they really added to the person’s range of information. The books for me was very expensive so I just came there watching books. There were also Doulos key chains, mugs, pencils, notebooks etc. which served as a souvenir. We also enjoyed the natured view at the top of the ship. The Doulos international crews and staffs introduced their selves to us and share their experiences as they tour and travel around the world. We also enjoyed the games they organized and the prizes waiting for the winner. We watched on screen on how they surpassed the difficulties and on how they work and depend on each other as they journeyed our world. They really worked hand on hand to make their travel successful. They also gave us magazine and booklet entitled, “Book of Hope (Customized animation Edition) and ‘The Most Important Story Ever Told”. They believed on their slogan, “Take a Look at God’s Book, start the greatest adventure of tour life! I really enjoyed reading those booklets, which pushed me to have a stronger connection and fate to our Almighty Jesus Christ.
It was a great experience that I able to enter the “World’s Largest Floating Book Fair”, the MV Doulos and on the other hand, it was also a great opportunity that I met its international crews and staffs who managed the journey of MV Doulos around the world.. Moreso, Doulos books helped to enhance my stored knowledge and also, I learned some knowledgeable informations on different fields like the book of magic tricks, the tricks there were very effective even though it needs less effort.
I really thank the lord for making that day very memorable to me.

What the stars and the sky tell me about life

Are you fun of stargazing? What do they tell you about your life? If I was to answer that, it takes me a long time to answer it. Maybe because I don’t know what will happen to me in the future?
We have club here in UP high school where you get to watch the stars in the skies all night, THE UP STARGAZERS Society and because of this I’ve learned some important things in life that are very useful for a growing kid like me.
Like the stars, we have our times when we shine like a Quasar, a very bright object and we would also die like a Black Hole, thing in space strong enough to suck everything even light. We are all together in a place were there are a lot of mysteries that are really hard to solve like the vast universe. We live from the strength and energy from our friends, family and everybody that loves and cares for us. They are like the Hydrogen, without them, the stars have no chance to live.
Our life is like the sky; sometimes it’s bright when there are no clouds and sometimes dark when there is clouds. We are sometimes in good conditions and sometimes were in bad ones. Let us not think when we fail, we are already failures, the only failures are those who stop trying to fulfill their dreams and we must need to realize that this is one of the ways to improve ourselves. We must regard our failures as challenges to improve our lives.
Life could not be all fun, we need to experience this downs to have a normal life. We need to learn how to go on with our lives when something wrong happens.
Stars also tell us to shine and never let anybody or anything pull us down like a fat smelly classmate that is like a BLACK HOLE. The stars tell us to continue life even though we have to make so many hard stuffs like assignments, tests, making a BLOG, cleaning the house and so much more. We must try not to be contented on what we have now, if possible, strive harder to obtain greater stuffs but we must never forget to thank our god for giving us our everyday needs.
The skies tell us not to be sad but to be cheerful and see the wonderful world around us. We must be blue and look down to ourselves. We need to be wise, we nee not to hate our selves just because you were caught in a serious trouble. We must learn to move on and learn from our mistakes. We must live by the way we think we need to. We must live by the way we want to. We must not let anybody order us to do things which will give us for no good but instead, listen and follow good opinions and neglect those that you know that can eliminate your live and others.
How about you, what do stars and the skies tell you about in life?

Vigilante: Friend or Foe

Vigilantes is a member of a vigilance committee, a group of citizens who agree voluntarily to watch for any infringement of law or their rights and privileges esp. with a view to talking the law on their own hands where the laws appears to be ineffective. To be clearer, Vigilante is anti-outlaws and is ready to kill criminals. As I have heard, whenever a prisoner leaves the jail, there is already a Vigilante following him but the Vigilante doesn’t kill the victim immediately, he will have to wait for a week or so and then, “boom”, went of the guns bullets straight to the victims head(I what I wrote hear is wrong, please do correct me).
There are already hundreds of killings here in Cebu because o these Vigilantes. What do you think, is this just or simply too cruel?
The good effect of this activity is that whenever they have eliminated a notorious crook or whatever, it makes other people who want to commit a crime to back-off their plans or their lives might be eliminated as well. The bad thing is, they also kill people who have already changed. For example, a former hold upper is now free from jail and went back home to see his Mom and Dad. Few days after, many of his friends has already notice his big change, from a scary and smelly hold upper to a bubbly and helpful BBQ seller. But still, he was killed for no good reasons at all.
This made me think that what if someone special of me would be sent to jail doing bad things and come out as another good persons and days after she /he would be killed. That would really make me sad. If only they would eliminate people who aren’t going to change, but the question is, do things have the right to kill? It is clearly stated in the Ten Commandments that thou shall not kill, so for me, that person still has aright to live even though he is the worst guy in the world. The thing is, they are abusing this right this right, which makes other people, like the Vigilance committee, and do something very bad to them but still they, have no right, only God gas the right to take away a mortal’s life.
Sometimes, I just think that Vigilantes are not afraid to go to hell just foe r the sake of the people. I also think that they are the DEATH ANGELS but who or what ever kills someone that happened for a reason we will never know what.
Life is not really ours to own so we must take care of it. We will never now when our life will end, today, tomorrow, or any other day.
The only thing I can say is, to be on the safe side, be a good citizen because if you are good, you will have fewer enemies and when you die, you don’t have to ask your self were will you be because for sure, you’ll be in heaven.

Valentines Day

What comes into your mind whenever you here the word Valentines? How do you celebrate Valentines Day?
Most of us think that this day is when Cupid is on the hunt for two lonely hearts and hits it with his magical arrows which make those two people all in love with each other but for me, this day is for everybody that loves and cares for someone special to them. Giving flowers, chocolates or saying “I LOVE YOU” may be one of the ways in showing there love, but there are more better ways than this, one of them is simply being good to the on you love.
I celebrated Valentines Day with some special to me, my grandfather. This may not be interesting to you but this is already special enough for me to be always kept in my heart.
It was early in the morning, I went outside to stretch and heat up my body a little bit when my grandfather called me and said something I did not really know what but I just answered him a “YES”. I followed my grandfather to his house and told me to buy a blade and rug. I did not really know what the use of the blade was until he gave me two live chickens. The use of the blade was to cut off the chickens “TAPAY”. My grandfather instructed me to hold the chicken with force because the chicken will be very aggressive which made me afraid because there was a news report about a man killed by a chicken for the chicken pecked at the side of his reproductive organ which caused a high blood flow that killed the man. My grandfather gave me the 1st chicken, it was not that aggressive than the 2nd one. Many bloods were on my T-shirt because the 2nd one was very aggressive. I thought that we were already through but few minutes later, he told me that there are still three more chickens which were bigger and aggressive which made my shirt bloodier. Luckily I was not hurt and the chickens “TAPAY” has been cut successfully.
I guess that Valentines Day celebration was very bloody and scary but still it was very fun and exciting.
I also planned to give a letter “Miss MGDA”, the girl of my life for know, but I was not brave enough to tell her how much I feel for her. I’m afraid if she will know; I can no longer go to her or even just call her name. Unfortunately, she did know and not only her, also all of my classmates. All thanks to Raymark “TALONG”.
I guess Cupid really needs to wear eyeglasses now for he has already missed a lot of shots he made and because of this; many hearts were broken and turn into pieces.
Valentines has really a lot o meanings and each of this has its own good and bad side.
How about you, what does Valentines mean to you?

Ran Online: My Game

Ran Online is a game about students who fights for their survival against monsters and mutated people. This game consists of three schools. This schools are the MP(Mystic Peak),SG(Sacred Gate) and the Phoenix. There is also an abandoned school,the Leonair. There are four types of player characters and these are the:
Brawler: Uses gauntlets to crush an enemy's body. Is high in Stamina
Archer: Specialized in ranged combats, Archers use their bow and arrows in targeting monsters
Swordsman: Uses large swords/blade to cut their enemies into half. Is high on HP.
Shaman: Hiller and a buffer, Shamans are very useful in every combat.
Each of these characters has three sets of skills,POW,INT and DEX. The first monster that can be seen by your character is the little hooligan, next is the little bandit, then th hooligan and so much more as your level gets larger. The strongest is the Cruel Jupiter and the weakest is the garbage. The biggest is the Alien King Kong while the smallest is the crow.
The BHS(Bartlett Heartrub Society),Grace and Kevin are the only people in our room that plays this game.
The BHS members are Paolo(which has an Archer-Dex level 47),Raymark(which has a Swordsman-Int level 31),Jay(which has a Brawler-Dex level 32), and Rieland(which has a Swordsman-Dex level 30) picked the server TALA and our school is MP because we wanted to try something new. Grace has an Archer-Dex level 120 which she accidentally deleted that made her angry. Kevin also said that he had a Shaman level 130 but I did not believe him because many people said that he is a liar. I choose the character Swordsman-Int because it has this cool Buffs,Divine Shield,Metal Body, and Tranquility,that can greatly add a characters defense. Other skills that my level 54 character is about to reach is the Arcane Punch, Kamikazee,Lightning Strike, and Crescent Slash which has cool effects and deals greater damage.
This game has really many ups and downs. Whenever you will have a nice party or looted something useful, you will really feel glad but if you get killed by a MOB and your precious item will be dropped, you will be very sad. There was one time where I was just running and suddenly an aggressive monster just cane after me and killed me. Another was a party mate of mine found a DSJ(Dark Swordsman JR.). It directly hit me because I was near my party mate that was trying to kill the DSJ but unfortunately,the DSJ killed us instead. The only good thing that happened to me was when I looted an enhanced kendo coat.
Oh how I wish I could play this game all night long but the thing is,it can destroy your future. Why?Because if your addict to this game and you would prefer renting a computer instead of buying it for food, you will get sick or worse, you will experience ULCER. There was a guy that was a healthy, a topnotcher and had no vices until one day, his “friend” took him to the Internet Cafe' and introduced Internet Games to him. Three weeks later, they come visit there everyday and play. Today, his face got old even he was still young and he stopped going to school.
Computer games maybe fun but when you get addicted to it and you forget all important things that you needed to like eating, studying and exercising, these will really ruin your life.

Being Lectured by Fellow Students

What would you do if your teachers would be replaced by you fellow students?What would you fell?How will you interact with them?
Here in U.P.(University of the Philippines), there is ab event called K.Y.S.D.(Know Your School Day)where students like me, can have a chance to act as teachers or non-teaching faculty members for example, being a Clerk, Librarian and so much more.
To be a member of this activity, you have to write what you want to apply and write the reason why. After doing so, the next step is to go teacher-in-charge or the faculty-in-charge of what you want to apply. You will be interviewed by them.
I also tried to apply but it was already too late, the teachers are no longer accepting applicants. Its all right, I'll to apply next year, and if I can't be a “teacher”, I still have my 3rd and 4th years. The question is, will I be still here in my 2nd ,3rd and 4th years?
Back to my main topic. In the first day of K.Y.S.D.,it was Thursday so our first subject was Computer and Rheena was our “teacher”. She managed to teach us patiently even though some of my classmates were very noisy because there were not afraid of the “teacher” because she was only our classmates. After the bell rang, Soc. Sci was the next subject and the “teachers” were Paolo, Joni Joy and Rosa . Our lesson was about Current Events and as usual, many of our classmates were talking. After the discussion, Joni Joy said that we will have a quiz. The reactions of my classmates were very negative and because of this, Joni scolded every body which made us silent for that moment. That day was really dramatic, but what happened the day after that was three times more dramatic than the other day.
Our first subject was Reading and the “teachers” were GRACE,Gerardo and Isabel. The lesson was all about “irony”. After the discussion, Gerardo instructed us to group ourselves into five, he said that we would have an activity about “irony”. We divided the board into seven and wrote 5 sentences that contains “irony”. Each of the group members did well except for Ann Rey, she was just laughing and a drew a smiley face on the board which made Gerardo angry and said something bad to her. After that, GRACE said to us to read the selection “The Teargas Men”. Every time the word “McCoy” is red, some of my classmates including Ann Rey would laugh which made Gerardo very angry and scolded everybody. Ann Rey feedback to Gerardo and said that we have a right to laugh which made Gerardo silent for a moment. I knew that at those times, he was already depressed.
This made me conclude that being a teacher is a really a hard job and people need to respect one another so there won't be any conflict.

"Miss Mgda"

What is love?Have you ever been in loved?How does it feel, does it hurt or not?
Here in U.P.(University of the Philippines), I found love and fell in love with a girl. I am afraid that you'll know who she is,so to avoid myself from public humiliation,I'll make a codename for her and the codename is “Miss Mgda”
I started falling in love with her during I was sitting down on my grandfather's chair listening to a song while thinking of her. I did not really know what was the title of that old song but the lyrics that really hit me was this:
I wouldn't be here if I didn't love you.....
I wouldn't be here if I didn't care............
The reason why this words hit me because she was my “Savior”. I did not love her because she's pretty,I love her because she really has a kind heart and full of grace. She has helped me many times, for example,when sir said that we would pay Php50 for the special project and if a student can't pay in the deadline which is on that same day, she/he would have a low score. In those times, I really tried to borrow money from my fellow classmates. No one was able to let me borrow money except “her”,she just came near me and gave me Php50. I was really happy at that time because I was able to pay sir but at those times, I haven't got any feelings for her yet, she was just my friend, I think. She was also the first person on U.P. I first communicated with.
Those were the main reasons why I love her and the other reasons why I love her because she loves to play computer games and she is not a sissy girl.
At those times, I can still go near her and talk to her but now, I can't. She already knows that I have a big crush on her.
It all started when I went to Odchigue asking him who is his crush but he did not answer until I told mine accidentally. Because of this, I made Odchigue to sing his secret. Later on that week, I went to Ariel and asked who's his(I so “ChizimsZ”). He said to me immediately who's his crush was and in return, I told him the crushes of Odchigue and Rieland. Ariel then said to Jen Rose the crush of Odchigue. Rieland then came to Jen and said he already knew who was the crushes of Odchigue even though he doesn't really know,he was just trying to trick Jen Rose and unfortunately,she was triked. Then Rieland said to someone I don not know that Oschigue has a crush on “pot” and “pooot”. That someone told almost everybody about it and because of this, Odchigue also spreaded mine as well.
Now that everybody knows, I can no longer talk to her or even just go near her,which makes me very very sad. There are also times when here friend teases her whenever I'm around. And whenever her friend tease her, I fell glad for a moment but as I have noticed that she, “Miss Mgda”,isn't. This also makes me sad as well because whenever she is sad, it also makes me sad as well.
I guess love for me is really hard to get and it really does hurt especially when the one you love doesn't love you.

Math

Math,based on the dictionary, it means that it is the the science of space,number,and quantity but for me, it is the easiest subject if all subjects if you understand it but if you don't, it is like smelling the armpit of Ian!
When i was still an elementary student,I was one of the best solvers of Math problems, whenever there are math contests,me and my former classmates Aian(which is now in Sci. High)and Andre(which is in section Villamor)are the contestants. I may not be the best but I was good enough to have a high grade in my elementary years. I was really that close on betting them but they were too good for me.
Those elementary years were very fun and relaxing, especially our Math subject, in those days, Math for me was just like taking a candy from a silly little baby.
I wished those days would not change but unfortunately, it did change. Those days were gone. It all started here in my present school, The University of the Philippines. In the first week of school, we were just trying ti know each other. Then in the next week, we formally started our class. All subjects were just fine except for Soc. Sci( I don't wanna talk about it). It was also not hard when I heard what was the first topic in Math, it was about converting measurements. Many schooldays past, and whenever the subject is Math, I don't listen to Dr. Ereno(our teacher in Math and present Asst. Dean of our school), I just think about stuffs. But there cane one day, our teacher said that we would haves long test, and as usual I did not listen. “Long Test Day” came and I was confident that I will have a high score. He gave us the Test Papers and when I looked at it ,my eyes dilated so much that if there was an eagle flying trough my face, it will be trapped in my eyes,the test he gave ti us was no longer about converting measurements, it was already about square root. I was already sweating at that time, I did not know what to do, o forced my eye to look at the teat paper of my classmates, but I just can't because I know it would be a very bad sin and if I'll get caught, I'll be suspended. As minutes go by,I got more tensed. Then the bell rang and I had no answers in my paper. I just sat down in my chair wishing I could go back through time, if I have only listened to our teacher instead of day dreaming about toys, games and etc. , I could have answered all those questions immediately.
Second Sem. came and Md m. Nunez was our new teacher. This time I listened to her but still, I could not catch up of what I didn't know during the 1st Sem.. Which made me very angry. There was one day I cried not because my crush busted me or a bully punched me, it was because I really had a low score in our test, in that same day, my soccer team also lost a game which made me very depressed. While I was crying, I thought of something good, I said to my self that I really need someone to teach me personally and that someone is Rhomphete(a 3rd year student here and the present boyfriend of Jazya).
I wish that through him, I can catch up with Math and have better scores.
This is what I meant about Math, it is like heaven if you understand it but if you don't, you will be crying because of the truth that you will have a low grade in this subject.
