A Little Conversation between the Teacher and the Student

Ma'am May: Hello Hans.
Hans: Hello Ma'am.
Ma'am May: I had been observing you in our English hour and outside times. And I noticed that you were speaking Filipino all the time.
Hans: I am sorry Ma'am. I had been speaking Filipino all the time.
Ma'am May: Do you know what is gonna be the result of what you are doing?
Hans: Yes Ma'am. I am sorry. I promise not to speak Filipino all the time. I will speak English every time.
Ma'am May: I know you are a man of your word Hans. Farewell.
Hans: Good bye Ma'am.

National Career Assessment Examination

That day, I thought it was going to be some kind of a periodical examination which is graded. The whole level was separated by 5 classes, 4 for the morning and one for the afternoon session. I was one of the students in the morning session.

We were in the room of the 3H people when the test took placed. I found comfortable in the room because it was cold and there was no total disturbance in my atmosphere. I was holding my answer sheet and saw several circles. I told myself that I had already encountered this kind of strategy of answering the examination last year in my second year level. I encountered tests of Mathematical solving, English and Filipino reading comprehensions, entrepreneurial skills and others that were testing our very minds. And at last we ended at noon, for our afternoon hours were home sweet home times.

NCAE for me is an examination to help us in finding courses for colleges. My type of course was Fine Arts, and I wish that will be the result of the examination in my side.

Mango Tree...

MANGO tree, of course, is a tree rich with mangoes. It is tall and big. It has a long life almost the same with the average lifespan of a human.

At the back of our house, we had this kinda big mango tree. I was always happy because I was used to climb and play at the tree. Mangoes were my favorite fruits. And every time we had our mango harvest, I would get one basket of ripen mangoes and give others some mangoes.

I would describe myself as a mango tree because I am giving, tall and strong. God knows that I can say these things.

I am a mango tree, there I said it.

Intramania!

Everyone must think that if you participate in this kind of activity, you must be happy still if you lost or won the game.

That was my view while playing Javelin. I was the player of the Third Year level for the Javelin throw. While practicing before that time, I felt nervous. I was kept saying, "Matatalo ako for sure..." Then the others told me that I am not that pretty bad.

When I was about to play, my legs were shaking and my palms were getting wet. I was holding the Javelin like I was Leonidas of the movie 300 or Eomer of the movie The Lord of the Rings. I was throwing it like I am going to the heaven, and at last, I made a perfect pierce. Unfortunately, I did not make it at the top because of the distance. But that was okay, if you want to know the reason, look at the first sentence of this blogpost. :)

Sonnet 116

A.

1. Love is not love. Love is not Time's fool. Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks.
2. Love alters when its alteration finds or bends with the remover to remove. Love is the star to every wandering bark. Love bears it out even  to the edge of doom.

B.

1. Love is like a star that its value cannot be fathomed or cannot be reached even though you have it.

C.

1. I agree because I noticed that the piece has its comparisons and contrasts about love.

Benigno Simeon Cojuangco Aquino: My Modern Day Hero

The man known for eyeglasses in fashion,

From his martyred father killed in action.

And the yellow Chinese trademark in appearances,

From his parents who were granted by people remembrances.

The man who was one of the candidates in the 2011 elections,

Became the President of the Philippine Island portions.

The man who taunts his countrymen the word,

“You are my boss and you have my word!”

As today, two years had passed,

This man must be the model of those who wanted to be inspired.

The future leaders must have his characteristics as a leader,

And that is Benigno Simeon Cojuangco Aquino, the Aquino clan’s stand bearer.

The Music in my Life.

"Music is eveywhere..."

According to Wikipedia, music is an art form whose medium is sound and silence.  Music for me is a tool of inspiring ourselves and colouring our lives to make it meaningful. Music is like the alternate thing of the characteristics possessed by a person. If he or she listens to peaceful music, he or she is to be described as a man or a woman of peace and otherwise, if he or she listens to music that handles harsh experiences, he or she is to be described as a man or a woman of the damned.  Music can be divided into genres such as rock, pop, metal, RnB, and others. Those genres were divided according to the organization of the rhythm.

If you are going to ask me what type of music I like, I would enumerate those.

1.       Rock

If I hear the word “rock”, hard comes through my mind because the music with the genre rock has hard feelings. I remember my first time to listen rock music from the band Foo Fighters which was introduced by my brother to me. It was entitled “Overdrive” from their album “One by One”.  I thought that I was not going to like it. But when I listen to the lyrics, I had its attention in myself. And so many albums had passed in my ears and I got addicted to rock bands such as Foo Fighters, ACDC, Killswitch Engage and Alterbridge.

1.       Instrumental

I like instrumental. I got this when I watched The Lord of the Rings Trilogy. Those instrumental music that they play in such scenes like the army assembling and advancing towards the enemy, and those times of grief. And so that I still listen to those in my cellphone. I am interested also to those instrumental music in the other movies such as The Da Vinci Code, The Last Samurai, Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron, and Pirates of the Caribbean Trilogy, and games such as Red Alert 1, 2, and 3, Call of Duty series and Medal of Honor series.

An advice for those people who haven’t seen connection with music, please make those as your “jewerlies”, because you can consider them also as your treasures.
