My Third Year Life

            Well, every year of my life is an amazing one. There are always new things and new knowlegde learned. There are also a lof of firsts in our relationship during this school year. This year is the most challenging, exhausting, exciting, romantic, memorable, of all my years in highschool.

            This year I'm the president of a class. It's my first time. It's hard because you bare all the responsibilities of the class. Well, I happened to manage until now unlike what I am in second year. I was dependent on everyone around me especially the president. Being the president feels like you have no shoulder to lean on. Then there's also my love life. Our relationship just got better. I'm happy about it. Also our band has been exposed a lot lately. That gives me some sort of popularity. Best times of my third year life.

            I will always cherish the time and memories that I have for this third year life.

Special in My Own Way

            Each and everyone of us is special in our ways. Some of us may have discovered what makes them special a long time ago but there are those that still don't know what makes them special. As for me, I'm special in my own way.

            I have eidetic memory commonly known as photographic memory or total recall. It is a disputed ability to recall images, sounds or objects in memory with great precision. I discovered it when I was in my first year in highschool. My teacher in music taught us about the notes. Then she showed it on the organ. I can easily do it again just by watching her. Then I tried different piano songs then I got attached to it. That 's why I decided to play the piano. This ability of mine helps me not just in playing the piano but also in studying. It makes memorizing things easier.

            We are all unique and special in a way. Never think that you have no talent or purpose in life. You are a great person somewhere deep inside you.

Regrets from our Opportunities

            Opportunities are like the sun. If you wait too long, you miss them. Still, they come back again but not the same as before. There are times when we can't stop wanting more. Times where we don't know the importance of something until they are taken away. I'll tell you a story of someone who experienced those times.

            There was a guy who never believed in true happiness and love. For him, love is mediocrity. He just plays with other people's feelings Then he met a girl. A girl that changed everything. A girl that so different this boy with a heart so stiff and cold changed his ways. He realized that true happiness and love can be obtained. He admired the girl secretly. Then one day, he showed his true colors. He told the girl that he has feelings for her. The girl was feeling the same for him. They were happy. Times passed and they haven't seen each other in a long time with little contact with each other. The boy changed. He asked for more. His parents presented a different girl to him. He dumped the girl that loved him truthfully. That was the GREATEST regret of his life. He tried to seek more love from that new girl but failed drastically. He failed to do so because deep down he still loves his first love. But that girl never gives second chances. The boy was devastated. He didn't realized that he had the opportunity to be happy. The boy did not give up on her. He struggled. He gave more effort. Then one day the coldness in the girls heart was melted by the warm honest efforts of the boy. He then swore to not just double or triple his efforts but make it even greater than before. He realized that opportunities are one in a million.

            Opportunities isn't like the sand which numerous in numbers. Opportunities don't last forever. We should grasp the opportunities and hold tight those who are truly dear to us. For all we know, they will never leave us nor forsake us for they are those who gave their love to us wholeheartedly.

Childhood Hero

I'm sure all of us have our childhood heroes. For me his name is Walt Disney. He gave me inspiration. He taught me lessons in life and many more. I really want to meet him. I want to know him. I want to know the man that brought us great stories.

I would invite him to Disneyland. Disney land is like the imagination of Walt Disney turned into reality so I think this is the best place for us to talk. I would ask him questions like why is Disneyland named “Disneyland”. I think his answer would be “So that everybody would know it is our work.” I would also ask him how did he get the name of Mickey mouse. I think he would answer by  “The name “Mickey” was inspired by people who I've met before. Lastly, I would ask him “What would you want to do if you haven't died yet”. I think his answer would be “To see Disneyland get finished.” He died before it became complete.

Walt Disney truly is a good man. He is kind to his workers and employees. He never gave up on his dreams and that made him a successful man. He is not just a role model for me he is also my childhood hero.

Nine Violations

In our school there are a lot of policies. Policies in which we should follow whole-heartedly. Policies that are thought of so that our school would be a peaceful place. Even thought there are policies there are still a lot of students who violate and ignore this policies of ours. Here I'll state some examples of violations in our school.

Some of the students in our school live very far away from the school. They have service buses so they can save money and get to school early. The students should always wear their IDs but there are students who forget to wear their IDs but still get to enter the school because of their services. In the flag ceremony we have our seniors as our platoon leaders. Some students never really listen to the platoon leaders. They still continue their talking and excess movements. While walking in the pathways some students even shout while they're talking to their classmates eeven though they're close to each other. Some students also throw their garbages along the pathways or grass areas. The students in our school have designated areas to clean. There are students who doesn't clean properly They're just holding props. In the canteen there are students who are cutting in line because there are times when the canteen is crowded and there's a long line. In the room are where most of the violations are done. In the room cleanliness is observed but some students don't care about that. They don't clean the room or the area around them. In the room there are like 28 to 30 students. When some of their items fell down or misplaced others will claim it as their own. Lastly, there are times when students resort to cheating. Because some lessons for them are very hard so they don't study it. So they go to cheating.

There are a lot of things that students can do. As teachers and other staffs get better I can say that students “Evolve” and “Adapt” to their surroundings to be safe. They get better in what they do

Texting Problems

One of the greatest things that technology did for us is expanding our horizons. The birth of cellular phones made long distance communication possible. But I'm pretty sure there are always ups and downs on this kind of technology.

In some cases cell phone users tend to have their knowledge ravaged by the way they use their phones. This is because of getting used to texting with shortcuts or adding more letters than what is needed such as " EOW p0wh~ hoW~ zAreZu~ iTZ beEN A loNG tym~ SincE weVE SeEn eAcH othEr". That is an example of the so called "Jejemon". As for me I prefer to use the correct way to use our language. I don't want to blemish my knowledge in the English language. I only use shortcuts when I'm in a bad mood or if I don't like who I'm texting.

My knowledge in the English language will never be blemished by texting for I will not allow it. Texting only helped me get in touch to other people easily. It helps me ask for my needs in time to time.

My Vacation

Time is equal to Life, Therefore, waste your time and waste of your life, or master your time and master your life.For the past few years I've wasted my vacation in eating, sleeping and playing video games and computer games at home. But now I tried to spend it doing some productive things. I tried to bond with my family and friends.

I went to my brother's house and we played video games together. At least this time I'm bonding with my brother.We ate a lot of food together. I played basketball the next day and we went swimming. There was only one day where I stayed at home doing my usual routine. The day after, we went to Manila to relax and we stayed at a hotel. The hotel was very beautiful. At all soul's day we didn't go to the cemetery because we're very tired when we got home. I also visited my girlfriend at Trece and we went to eat together somewhere. On the last day of vacation I got sick so I didn't go to church. While resting at home I decided to finish all the homework I have left. Well, I did finish all in time.

I've spent my vacation wisely compared to my previous vacations. I have no regrets. My sembreak was not that fast because a lot of things have happened. I can say that this one week vacation was very memorable.
