My Only Wish

I am not handsome, I am not cute,
I'm not very attractive and not a brute,
But even if my face don't look good to you,
I swear to God, that my feelings are true.
 

 

I can't give you jewelries, and other fancy things,
But I will try my best, to give you a ring,
Even if I can't give you anything now,
I promise to work hard, to give some somehow.

 

You can count on me whenever you are down,
I'll always be at your side, I'll always be around,
Don't be afraid to fall, 'cause I'll be there to catch you,
I will not let you cry, because I love you.
You are my only wish, my fantasy and dream,
You are the only light, when my world is dim,
I promise to love you forever, and give my all to you,
Just choose me and be my love, and make my wish come true.

My Teacher, My Hero

          Napoleon, Julius Caesar, Alexander the Great, Jose Rizal, Isaac Newton, Albert Einstein, Archimedes, and Bill Gates. All of these great people of history cannot achieve what they had achieved without someone who guided them to victory and success - their teachers. Teachers who are always there for them whenever they need help and advice. Teachers who seem to be the only people who are there when they are in need. Teachers, their reason for success.

          I had many teachers already. Funny teachers, beautiful teachers, scary teachers, and even irritating teachers. But the teacher that affected my life the most is Mrs. Marjorie M. Digma. She is our Botany teacher in second year high school and our class adviser at the same time. She is the best teacher I had so far.

          Mommy Digz, as our class call her, changes as a person depending on her schedule. As a subject teacher, she is very strict, specially when it comes to the requirements that we have to pass and to our performance in her subject. She is also very helpful to students who seem to be confused on the new lesson that she is teaching. As a class adviser, she is very loving and caring. She treats our class like her own children. Whenever we have problems regarding studies, grades, love, whatever it is, she is always there to spare some time to talk to us about it and gives us a handful of advises.

          Knowledge is what makes our world go round. Knowledge about science, history, mathematics, and most of all - love. All of the knowledge that we have cannot be obtained if we don't have anyone who teaches us. Our teacher can be ourselves, our parents, our friends, our loved ones, and our school teachers. The important thing is, our teacher is the reason why we can survive all the challenges that this world will give us.
                                

"To be or not to be..."

"To be or not to be..."

A riddle in our mind.

It keeps bugging you and me,
What's the answer? Let us find.

To be or not to be,

Will I be or will I not?
It's not that hard you see,
Let's untangle the knot. 

 
To be or not to be,

Will I choose this or that?
What will become of me,

If I do this or that? 

 
To be or not to be,
I am so confused!
I need some remedy,
What method shall be used? 

 
To be or not to be,

You can alter your fate.

If you choose correctly,
To love or to hate. 

 
To be or not to be,
There's so many confusions.
You just need to think deeply,
To make the right decisions.

Comedy of Errors

         "Comedy of Errors" is one of William Shakespeare's masterpiece. It tells about two sets of identical twins that got separated from birth. As the title implies, it is a comedy made by so many errors that the two sets of twins created. The errors are made because of mistaken identities of the twins. There is so many errors that were created that the character's life is threatened to be destroyed.

          My first impression to this novel is that it is boring. But while reading the novel, a smile never left my face because of the comedy that the errors made. But these errors are not always funny because such errors, like what happened in the story, can threaten your life, and in some cases, ruin it. These errors may also affect other people so be careful in committing these errors and to easily conclude without weighing all of the sides. you can also prevent omitting these errors by patience.  

          Errors are made by all people. It is one of the things that people cannot avoid in his life But errors does not mean that you cannot correct it, you can make things right again if you just have the will to correct your error. Being wise is not rated to how many errors you made in an exam, it is rated by how many errors have you corrected in your life. 
 

 

Tagalog or English?

          Language is the main reason why the humankind is now the most intelligent life form on Earth. It helps us communicate to other people. Because of it, we are able to make civilizations, cultures, and even nations. Different languages in each nation but still, one word in one language have a counterpart in another. Language in our country for example, is still used but it is altered by other languages. So what really is more important? Our Mother Tongue or fluency in other language like English?

           For me, I will choose my Mother Tongue because it is the language that I am using since birth. It is the language that I'm most comfortable to use and it is the language that i don't have a problem when using it. I also understand more things using the Filipino language because I can easily understand it. I am also a Filipino so it is my duty to use my people's language as my main way of communication. I also chose my Mother Tongue because it signifies our freedom as Filipinos.

          It doesn't matter if our language is different, we could still understand each other because of our knowledge. Language is what we need for us to communicate. If we cannot communicate, there will be misconceptions that may lead to bigger problems. Language is very important to us. We should use our knowledge of language in a good way for us to live a peaceful life.

National Career Assesment Examination

          Being a third year high school student, you need to take the NCAE test. It stands for National Career Assesment Examination. It is done yearly to assess the possible career of a student that he or she could be in the near future. It also includes a test that shows what subject is your specialty. It also shows what you like to do most and what you don't like to do.

          My understanding for this test is to identify what is the course that you have to take without failing it. This test is done because many college students today choose courses they like but their skills are more appropriate to other courses. Also, a large percentage of college students take up nursing and engineering so other courses like agricultural sciences, meteorology, and many more courses have little number of students that take them up. After these students graduate, not all of them will be employed nurses or engineers because they are too many. As a result, there are many unemployed college graduates and college graduates that works on other countries. Some students also fail in less popular courses so less college graduates gets jobs that our nation lack. Because of this, the unemployed people in our country gets more. This test helps in preventing unemployed college graduates.

          Planning for our future is good. It makes us ready in whatever happens to us. It also makes us more mature for we develop good qualities as a grown up individual. Having a better future cannot be required by only dreaming of it. You need to work hard and be persevere enough for your dreams to happen.

Sports In My Life

          Sports is one of the oldest traditions of many race of people. It has been known that sports has been around since the times of Ancient Greece and it is also believed that the ancient Mayan Civilization has a sport that is similar to basketball. It is much appreciated today that by almost all nations. One event that celebrates the appreciation of sports is the Intramural that some schools celebrate. But what really is the importance of sports in the life of a student?

          For me, as a high school student, sports is very important. Sports can help us to be a more mature individual because it teaches us to play fair and to accept defeat without getting angry to anyone. It also helps in keeping as physically and mentally fit because it requires mind and body coordination. It also gives us a sort of relaxation and leisure because playing sports is fun. It also improves our social skills and camaraderie. You can also meet new friends in the field while playing sports. 

           Sports is very important to us. We should engage in playing sports because it has been part of our society since ancient times. We should cherish it for the new generations to come to experience the fun that it brings. Sports is not hard. You just have to have the determination the joy that it gives us.
