Week 6: The soundtrack of my life

 I had a hard time choosing the best song that could define myself or simply my life. But after so many tries, I ended up with "who says" by Selena Gomez. I really like the meaning of the song, it's all about being positive about yourself and believing in what you can do.

I am just a simple girl with many dreams in life, when I was in my childhood years, I thought of being a singer but before all I can do is to engage myself into the choir group of my school and in high school I joined a singing contest and thanks to God I ranked 3rd out of several contestants from different year levels. Moving on, now in my college days, I develop various characteristics, some of those are my self-esteem, self- confidence and self- discipline which I acquired through different situations. I have learned from my mistakes and don't ever do it again. The song really tells a lot of meaning into my life.

I don't want to be somebody I am not. I have been to many trials in my life, many insecurities and wrong impressions but I don't really care. Only those people who can judge me are those who really know me inside and out. I believe that nobody's perfect but I do believe that being imperfect is a way to be somehow perfect and Imperfection sometimes makes us simple and humble.

The song implies not only the physical appearance but also the beauty of the soul.

I made a video presentation using the song "who says" by: Selena Gomez

I wanna share this song with all of you so here's the Lyrics of the song.

"WHO SAYS"

By:  SELENA GOMEZ

I wouldn’t wanna be anybody else.
You made me insecure
Told me I wasn’t good enough
But who are you to judge
When you’re a diamond in the rough
I’m sure you got some things
You’d like to change about yourself
But when it comes to me
I wouldn’t want to be anybody else

Na na na
Na na na

I’m no beauty queen
I’m just beautiful me

Na na na
Na na na

You’ve got every right
To a beautiful life
C’mon

[Refrain]
Who says
Who says you’re not perfect
Who says you’re not worth it
Who says you’re the only one that’s hurting
Trust me
That’s the price of beauty
Who says you’re not pretty
Who says you’re not beautiful
Who says

Selena Gomez
It’s such a funny thing
How nothing’s funny when it’s you
You tell ‘em what you mean
But they keep whiting out the truth
It’s like a work of art
That never gets to see the light
Keep you beneath the stars
Won’t let you touch the sky

Na na na
Na na na

I’m no beauty queen
I’m just beautiful me

Na na na
Na na na

You’ve got every right
To a beautiful life
C’mon

[Refrain]
Who says
Who says you’re not perfect
Who says you’re not worth it
Who says you’re the only one that’s hurting
Trust me
That’s the price of beauty
Who says you’re not pretty
Who says you’re not beautiful

Who says
Who says you’re not start potential
Who says you’re not presidential
Who says you can’t be in movies
Listen to me, listen to me
Who says you don’t pass the test
Who says you can’t be the best
Who said, who said
Won’t you tell me who said that
Yeah, oh

[Refrain]
Who says
Who says you’re not perfect
Who says you’re not worth it
Who says you’re the only one that’s hurting
Trust me
That’s the price of beauty
Who says you’re not pretty
Who says you’re not beautiful

WEEK 5: Drug Addiction is a CRIME!

In my own opinion, drug addiction is one of the major problems of youth here in the Philippines.
It ruins every life of a young heart and develops into a monstrous creature. Illegal drugs like marijuana and nicotine are just some of the  many drugs that destroy many lives.

Addiction to drugs doesn't bring any benefit to our lives, it is also a way of wasting money and of course wasting our precious life. God has given us this life to make use of it in a good way, he gave us this body to take care of and not to abuse it.

One way that I can do to stop drug addiction is by doing this simple blog to make people aware and by telling them how important our life is, problems are just tests given by God for us to solve properly but not with the help of these drugs. No matter how hard our problems are, we, the youth should never try using drugs because once you use it, there is no assurance that you'll not get hooked to it so better not to start than to suffer forever.

WEEK 4: COPY + PASTE = PLAGIARISM

AN ORIGINAL IS ALWAYS WORTH MORE THAN A COPY..

Instant project! Instant assignment! HOW?

1. COPY
2. PASTE

= ALAS!

But did you ever think that you only fool yourself when you plagiarize? You refuse to learn and just do the easy way. It’s a way of fooling yourself and fooling everybody around you especially when you presented it and claim that it was your work.

It’s a bad habit to start with because in the real world, no one is really allowed to copy other’s work. It’s another way of stealing.

How can we ever prevent this practice? One way is to start it within the family. Parents should teach their children at early age that plagiarism is not good for them.

Plagiarism is a crime. It doesn’t only affect the people around you, but it also affects you from within, it’s your conscience against your tardiness.

Because plagiarism is caused by tardiness and laziness, you tempt to do it because you are too lazy to do your own because you have other priorities like playing computer games which are common for students.

WEEK 3: A long and fun week end for everyone

The long week end is over back to school!

I enjoyed the long week end because I got time to rest and to bond with my family. I have plenty of time to relax and not to think about the upcoming projects and assignments. I also used that vacation to prepare myself because I know that the following week is going to be stressful.

During the long week end, together with my family we celebrated the vacation, we had a small family feast and at night we had a small drinking session. It was a blast because it was our only time to bond and maybe the next time is going to be Christmas time so I am very thankful for the long week end.

When boredom strikes, I just edit some of my pictures, make short videos, listen to music, watch television and surf the net the usual routine of a typical teen ager.

The long week end was worth because we didn’t get enough sleep the whole week preparing for the lingo ng Wika and the booth. I felt very relieved and stress-free.
