14-Making A blog

I really don't know where to start when making a blog. In fact, you can just write anything on it and publish then tudaahh it's already a blog. I don't know why I am so pressured to it.

Making a blog is an advantage for me, I always say things on my mind, opinions to be exact and I don't know where to share them. But thanks to blog, I can now post anything that I wanted to share to anyone. Blogging is very easy and convenient. You just have to say anything that might get your audience interested and wait for their reactions(comments) to see what you could have done to make it better.

You can learn many things to other bloggers just by reading their blog. You can teach someone how to do this and that. Blogging is very importan
t to a person who can share so much. Thank You!

13-Playing Video Games

I don't think that I would live a life without video games, it's just part of my life, it what keeps me motivated and inspired. Video games doesn't always renders us from being a lazy. Video games had helped me improved my vocabulary skills, and pronunciations. It's not always a bad thing to play video games.

I don't have a favorite game because I find every game that I play very interesting and thus making me more addicted to it. Although there is one game that I am addicted. It's called League of Legends, I don't know why I'm addicted to it but it helps me relieve stress and pressures from school. I just love playing games, I think it's in my blood, I think that I was born to play games. :D No, just kidding but playing games is beneficiary to me. According to research persons who are addicted to playing video games are a better problem solver than average people and also they react fast to everything. It also says that a person who plays a lot of video games can tract 6-8 moving object at the same time while a average person can tract 3-5 only.

Playing Video Games has it's own advantages and disadvantages but it's up to the person whether that he/she would be affected by it. Thank you and enjoy gaming!

12-Being A College Student

 I am a 17 years old student studying Computer Science in Asia Pacific College. To give you a feel about how being a college feels like then let me give explain it to you.

At first I really don't think that college would be this kind of thing. When I was in High School I always thought that being a college student is boring and would be a waste of time. But I was wrong. It was the best experience in my life so far. Although I have so much to finish as I am writing this. Hahaha but seriously I do.
We may not get to our dream school, we try to adjust to new environments. It's not always the school that can improve you to be better, it will always be us. It doesn't matter if you study in a good school, what matters is what will happen next after you graduate school. So don't try complain if you don't pass your dream school.

In my experience as a college student, we always had a heavy workload of assignments, projects and etc. I can't even remember if a day has passed that I am not doing anything. But this can be fixed if you try to finish everything as soon as possible. Remember it is not always a bad thing to have a low grade in your midterm grade, what matters is your finals. Always do your best in Finals because it can change your grade dramatically.

Now I already give you a tip of what to do in college. Hope this helps you!

11 -My Childhood Experiences

When I was still young, a stress-free and a jolly kid. I always dreamed of things that will make myself look cool for example, being a soldier. Every kid wants to be a soldier, why? because we think that holding a gun, wearing a full combat armor from head to toe can look very cool to others. Another one is being a pilot, this is my most favorite dream when I was a kid. I've always dreamed of flying in the clouds with birds beside me, funny isn't it? but that's me. I enjoy almost ever
y simple things that will make me happy. I don't care if that is showering under the rain with my friends or playing traditional Filipino games like, luksong baka and tagu-taguan and etc. I just enjoy everything back then without worrying about something.

Today, I realized that being a soldier isn't good today the funds that they are given are being corrupted by the government. Being a pilot is also hard because in order to be a pilot you need to be financially ready in college because they might require you to rent a actual plane that cost hundreds of thousands of pesos. Yeah this is true, according to my friends who are actually a student in the said field.

I always think that if I could only rewind things and make me a kid again, I would be so happy. I'm not saying that I am giving up being a college student but it would be amazing if I were a kid again, a kid without projects everyday, or a quiz tomorrow, a kid without worrying anything. That's amazing isn't it? well that's life that's why I always try to cope with everything. Thank you!

10-SoCSIT Week - A Game of Champions

It was the SoCSIT week, the most awaited event by the students. Many students cheered for their fellow blockmates in the court. They held different sports competition like the Basketball, Volleyball and Table Tennis and different activities.

In my experience, I enjoyed every game that I joined. I joined the Basketball, Volleyball and the Gaming Genesis event the League of Legends Tournament. To start this. Let's talk about the Basketball. I don't know my teammates that well because I was only pulled by the other block because they think that I would be a great addition to their team. But in the process I grew very fond of them and to think that they were also my blockmates because they share the same personalities as I do. In our first game, we faced second year students. At first we think that were screwed because they are much more experience than us but we managed to beat them in a very close game, I can't remember if it's 2 or 3 point difference only but it was a good game. Then after that our next game is the defending champions but that didn't threaten us, we manage to put a good fight against them, although we lost, we still put a smile on our face after the game.
 In Volleyball, I still get pulled by the same block, I know that I will do well in Volleyball because I am an varsity player when I was in High School but the problem is my teammates, some of my teammates don't really know how to play although some are also players. But that's no excuse we still do everything that we can do and finish as the first runner up.

SoCSIT week really  was fun and interesting. I met new friends and faced different years. Overall it was a great time for me and my friends, we share the same laugh together in good times and the bad. I'm still hoping that there would be more events as exciting as that. Thank you!

9-A Bag, A Notebook and A Watch

On our Exwrit Subject we were requested to make story making a bag, notebook and a watch as our main characters. To make my story short every character that we make has a moral story behind it. The watch is a very rich and handsome man, but doesn't know how care about his time, the bag is a gorgeous girl but has a lot of relationship issues and can't move on, and the notebook is a intelligent girl but has no time for love life prioritizing his studies first.

The watch and the bag are in a relationship for months but has only one problem, the watch had no time for bag and watch decided that t
hey should break up because he can't cope with his schedules. So bag had no choice but to accept it but can't hide his emotion for watch and she can't move on.

Years past, the watch is slowly adjusting to his time and fell in love with notebook but the problem is Notebook prioritize his studies and doesn't want a relationship so Watch is very disappointed and lonely.
Bag moved on and found someone that has time for her and someone that will make her happy. The End.

It may seems straighforward but that's the moral of the story. We sometimes can't control everything in our life. We may always lose everything in the process and sometimes we may get back up and fix everything. While sometimes we may just stick to something and hold on to it forever. This may seems cheesy but that's it. Thank you for reading!

8-Anti-Smoking Campaign

According to a research, smoking is responsible for several diseases, such as cancer, long-term (chronic) respiratory diseases, and heart diseases, as well as premature death. Over 480,000 people in the USA and 100,000 in the UK die because of smoking each year. According the US CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention), $92 billion are lost each year from lost productivity resulting from smoking-related deaths.

I just don't get why most people tend to like or be addicted to it. I mean, what benefits can you get from using it? Lung cancer probably, and to annoy people who don't smoke. 



Well to be honest, my dad is a chain smoker and all of my siblings are against it because we all know what it can do to our body. So we try to persuade him not to smoke but instead, he just just minimize his use to 1 stick per day, I think it's a fair deal but we would be glad if he stopped completely. 

I discourage you all to stop or not to try smoking because it's completely useless. All it can bring to you is life threatening sicknesses. As much as possible stick to simple ways to relieve stress like doing outdoor activities. This does not only help our body become immune to diseases but also renders us from smoking.

7- What makes someone a hero?

To start my blog let me begin with a quote saying "Not every hero wears a cape."
Who says that to become a hero, you need to have a cool gadget, a sidekick, and a superpower? that this things seperates us from our favorite superheroes. No, we all can be a hero. Not exactly fighting the criminals and the injustices, the point is that you can be a hero by just being yourself. Bringing joy to your family can make you a hero, as you help them lessen their problems. You can be a hero in your community by actively participating in community services and charity events.
 This are the things that can make you a hero.

Bruce Wayne also known as the Batman said that "It's not who I am underneath, but what I do that defines me." It's a very inspirational quote as myself, a normal person, can make an impact, to change the course of our wrong directions. This things makes a hero, a person who is admired for brave acts in his own simple way. Because our compassion is a weakness, that our enemies will not share and it is so important as it seperates us from them. Batman became the symbol of hope and resistance against evil. He will move mountain or die trying, he will save the lives of millions in sacrificed to his, even though he doesn't owe them anything. That's why he is my favorite superhero

Let me tell the story of a great hero in the Philippines. He is Jose Rizal, he was born in Calamba, Laguna He is a very educated person, he brought to life the heart of the Filipino, he became the symbol of anti-violence and fought the invaders with paper and word. This is the true hero, without using a gun and taking away the lives of others. There are still many heroes who showed great act of bravery but forgotten and died in vain. That's why we should learned to appreciate every good thing that someone had brought us.




We should remember that all of us can become a hero, we can show bravery in our own simple way, that we don't need superpowers to say that we are a hero, that deep down there is a good side of ourselves, just like batman said "Why do we fall? So we can learn to pick ourselves up." and this what makes someone a hero. Thank you :)

6-What Batman Can Teach Us

If there was something that I have learned watching Batman's movie is, to believe in something. Superman wanted to save the earth, Spiderman wanted to rid of the injustice and Batman wanted to save the world from its own fear. Unlike Superman, Batman doesn't have any super power, but he has an incredible way of thinking that is like a superhuman. Batman fights, because he believes in change,

Of course Batman has the right tools to fight. He is a millionaire, he can buy himself a bullet proof armor from head to toe that has a unique features. Also having the right companion to a mission is a must. Batman has Robin and Alfred, Robin did major works while Alfred got the cool tools ordered. Having the right people on our team dramatically affects the momentum on our goals, it becomes easier and more fun to work with other people who has the same personality as you have.

Batman taught me how to handle the most difficult problems in life. He had seen his parents got killed by a thief and somehow he manage to endure all the pains and sufferings he has.

That's why for me, Batman is the strongest and bravest hero of all

5-Interstellar

Have you ever watched the movie, Interstellar? this mind blowing movie is still fresh in my mind and wondering what the hell is happening there. If you a person who has a passion for science, then I recommend you to watch that movie.

There are so many things that still leaves me clueless watching that film, first is, that Cooper is the "Ghost" in the other dimension but in the same time. But the time gap is so far away. They call it the Fifth dimension reality. It is somehow a theory of an endless possibilities, where you can observe things in a three dimensional angle and an infinite dimensions. See? it's very confusing.  I think that if you have watched it only the first time, you might have trouble connecting all the events, like I did. Second is, Is there really a wormhole? wormhole is what they used to get to the other galaxy so far away, but with the use of a wormhole, they got there for just a short period of time. Cooper left her daughter, Murph, when she was just like 12 or 15 years old, but when he got back, his daughter is already in her 90's and Cooper did not age at all. This things amaze me of how physics and science works.

I have trouble explaining it to my friends because I really don't get it either, but that's the beauty of it. Unlike most movies that only talks about comedy, romantic and others. Interstellar will blow your mind, metaphorically. And you will be amaze of how science will literally rock your world just like Cooper and I experienced.

4-Why Traditional Paper Books Should Not Be Replaced by E-books


In the past, students carried books to and from their classes. They carried heavy books, while students in this generation can carry hundreds of books in a single e-book. The debate of whether the traditional paper books be replaced by E-books is already on trend. Not everybody likes the advancement of the technology, since most people is unable to afford the cost of e-book. People are uncertain of this technological advancement. Yes, E-books are fast and efficient, have a lot of storage and Is very convenient, they are able to store hundreds of books which can be downloaded instantaneously and they are also a key to a healthier environment.
But, Traditional Paper Books have its own advantages. First, it’s convenience. You can always bring a book anywhere you go. Like going to the beach, restaurants, and outings without charging it all the time and checking if it still has a battery left. Second, a book is a single-tasking device. There is limited things that can be done while reading a book. Meaning, that book can help you focus on one thing and not distract you from Facebook, Twitter and etc. It provides us the best possible reading experience.
If we replace the Traditional paper books over the E-books then, there wouldn’t be librarians and bookshops and so less jobs. Imagine if you’re reading from an E-book then all of a sudden it shuts down because of the battery and other technical problems. Wouldn’t it be so annoying?  Most schools can’t afford to change to e-books especially public schools.
The e-books lacks soul. Would you prefer to go on a date via webcam and Skype, or face to face in a restaurant. Traditional Books resembles the knowledge of how we overcome the ignorance of the past and survive to this age. Maybe in the future E-books might replace the traditional books. But it’s never too late to appreciate and see the true value of the Traditional Books.

3-"The 1975"

While most of you are listening to Justin Bieber, Beyonce and etc. What interest me the most is listening to my favorite indie band called "The 1975" the thing is, they have a very passionate and unique sound of which caught my attention. I first heard about their song on the radio. At first I really don't think that I would be as fanatic as I am today.


 They don't write songs that talks about money and drugs. They write differently from the other singers and bands today. The meaning behind the lyrics in every songs they wrote are very deep and passionate. It gives you chills just by listening to their songs. And it's also relaxing as their beat is very unique.

2-"SS151"

They say college friends is where you meet your lifetime friends. But to me, it's much more than that. For me, it's where I meet my family. The first time that I entered our room, the first thing that I have thought is that this would be a very boring class, because it's so quiet. None of my block mates are talking and even looking to each other, they just kept staring at their own desk.
But I have never been so wrong in my life. Those people are the best thing I have met in my whole life. It makes me happy just by looking at them, I loved their personalities, humor and many more. Of course every family has their weakest point, for example, we had a hard time trying to practice in the school's Cheers and Chants competition. Many of us get mad because someone is not cooperating and like that. But it's all just part of the challenge that God has given us, and at the end of the day. Our performance day, we all did our best, what we can do, we all scream and shout at the top of our lungs. Although we did not win the first place, we ended up being the second place, but we still laugh and put a smile on our face, after all we didn't even imagine we could reach that far. And the story goes on as we face our strongest and weakest point in our college life, we couldn't do it individual that's why we try to remain strong and united in all things that may come.

1-Perks of being a Volleyball Player

Playing Volleyball can help you become a healthy and physically fit person. It helps you to focus and become determined to do anything. While most people says that it is a very useless sport, because all you have to do is to toss the ball and get it to the other side of the net. Well, in my years of playing volleyball, for me, it's the most difficult sport. Before you say anything, let me ask you some questions. Would you dive the ball for the sake of one point? would you let yourself get bruises just to save a ball and keep it in the air? I believe most of you would say no, but for me, it's just all part of the game. If you ever saw a volleyball game before, the shouting and the look on their face is not just for the show. It shows that they are in pain and as well as, focused. Physically, volleyball can you help you to became aware of your surrounding. It can also help you to be physically fit and helps you to increase your metabolism and decrease the chance of getting a disease. Mentally, you strive to win. This also transitions off the court as you get motivated to do household chores and do home works. To a person who truly love and has a passion for volleyball. Pains and bruises are nothing, these things can just be endured by hardwork and determination.
