Journey Back In Time

           If I am to have a chance to go back to a specific time and to meet a historical person, it would such an honor. It would be such an honor to meet and be able to ask them some questions. For me, I would want to meet Marie Curie. She devoted her life to Physics and Chemistry. She had a pioneering research on Radioactivity and even won a lot of award. She was given such big awards and she was the first and only woman to have won this such awards.

            I would want to meet personally. She is a one of a kind woman. She proved that woman can also be a great contributor to our Science. She showed that anyone can make a difference with hard work. First, I would ask her why did she chose to dedicate her life to science specifically physics and chemistry. I want to know why such a fine woman would want to dedicate her life to Science and Research. Then, I would ask why she wanted to continue the idea of her advisor about radioactivity and improve it. Then I would ask how she had the courage and knowledge to have acquired such an achievement.  I want to know how was she able to create and construct some theories regarding radioactivity. I want to learn from her experience as a researcher. I would want to learn for me to be able to apply it to my upcoming research. It will be such great help to me, my studies, and my understanding about devotion to once work.

            Marie Curie showed me that no matter how hard it may be, with dedication and hard work, we can do anything. We can contribute to our surroundings. We can create a better world, a better life and a better tomorrow. Marie Curie is a great example of extraordinary people. She is truly a one of a kind and I can’t wait to meet her.

INFERNO FOR STUDENTS

            Being a student, we commit a lot of mistakes. Sometimes we take those mistakes to improve our selves not only as a student, but also as a person. As a student, we learn a lot of things inside our room. We meet new people with different characteristics. The others can influence you as a student. Your environment with them can change who you are.

            The first circle of the Inferno in our classroom is Plagiarism. Many of us students copy from our other classmates. For their punishment, their hands will be tied up at their back and a book will be glued to their face. The second circle is accompaniment. Others let their classmates copy their works. For their punishment, their works will be glued to their hands keeping it from others seeing their works. The third circle is Falsehood. Students might say different excuses to their parents just to let them go out of their houses. For their punishments, they are to be glued to their chairs and their mouths will be covered. The fourth circle is Possessing. Other students borrow something from others. Then they don’t return it to the owner. For their punishment, their hands will be kept straight pointing towards and with it holding the things that e borrowed and did not return. The fifth circle is Judgmental. Students might give some different judgments on their classmates without them knowing the true character before they talk about them. For their punishment, they are to face a mirror forever without them looking on the sides, up or down. The sixth circle is Slumbering. There are some students that sleep during a discussion or even a test. For their punishment, their eyes are forever remained open. The seventh circle is Disorganized. There are some students that let their things be anywhere. They never fix their things unless they are told to. Their punishment is to fix the infinite mess. The eighth circle is Cramming. Instead of doing their works at home, they do it at the last minute. For their punishments, they are to write an endless essay. For the last or ninth circle is Laziness. Some students are lazy enough not to do or accomplish their requirements. For their punishment, they are to do everything that they haven’t done repeatedly for infinity.

            These are some of the sins that us students might do. But these sins can also teach us and train us to make it through the challenges we are about to face in our lives. It can be our guide to do something better. It can show us the better and the straight way to achieve our dreams. It can change our path through life. And as a student, it can teach us to do better next time.

A Letter For My Special Someone

Dear Raymond,

                The day you told me how you felt, I wasn’t ready yet. But as time passed by, you proved to me how much you love me. That convinced me. It was not that long that I had feelings for you too. I can remember that every time you would look into my eyes, I felt like I was the only person around. I could never forget how you made me felt that I was a special person. That I was someone that deserves to be loved by someone like you.

Since that day, we have been through a lot. I have been so happy to have someone as special as you are. I never thought that someone like you would ever love someone like me. For that, I thank you so much. You don’t know how happy you made me. All I can say now is that, I, a simple girl, is so lucky to have you, a very special person.

Now that we are in a higher level, I know that we would have less time for each other. I understand that. Sometimes, I feel like I want to go back in time. Go back to that time when we had more time for each other. But I couldn’t. I just need to accept it and try to hold on. Try to hold on to what we have. I admit that sometimes, I feel lonely. I feel forgotten. But I know that you have something more important to do. That is fine with me. I just want you to reach your goal and your dreams. Nothing can make me happier, than to see you succeed.

                                                                                                                                                                                Love,

                                                                                                                                                                                Yza

My Teacher My Hero

          Teacher is a person that teaches us in school. They protect us and teach us different things. Not only about the academic but sometimes also about life. They can also inspire us. They help us reach our dreams. They guide us in every step of the way. They are one of the people whom we should thank for teaching us the right things. Thank them for helping us to be a better person as we grow up.  They are our teacher inside the school.

          One of my favorite teacher is my grade 6 adviser, Mrs. Lilian Tamayo. She id one of the teachers that really made me feel that I was part of her family. She took care of me when I was in grade 6. She never failed to make me feel happy. And she was one of the teacher that made me feel that she was my mother in school. She is a one special person.

          My teacher gave me courage to try to enter this school. She also made me feel important in school. Even the other teachers as well. But for me, she is the most special teacher in my elementary days. She is My Teacher, My Hero. 

To Be or Not To Be Who I Am

I

Always have been afraid

Afraid of what others are going to say

Always tried everyday

Try to fit in to stay

But if it was not to be

For them not seeing the real me

When will they see?

The person I was born to be

So now I try to show the others

That it is now or never

To show them who I really am

And stop hiding from myself

IV

Accepting me is the start

For me to finally be a part

Of something that will accept me

The real me inside and out

Reaction to Comedy of Errors

Comedy of errors was one of the plays written by Shakespeare. It was a very confusing yet entertaining story. It had a lot of turn in events. At first it was confusing. But when it was discussed to us, I was able to understand it better. Even the characters were confusing. This is because; there were 4 characters in which it was a pair of twins from different places. There were a lot of parts in the story where I got confused on the characters that were present.

          The reporting was clear. It was easy to understand but there were times that I got confused. In the end, I was able to understand the flow of the story. And because the story was confusing enough, I was impressed that the reporters were able to discuss it to us. And I had fun listening to their report. Especially, when Myron was telling us the summary of it.The story became more interesting as they were discussing it.

          The Comedy of Errors is a great story. It is interesting to read. I had fun learning about it. It had a lot of confusing parts but it was still entertaining. It was one of the stories that I had fun learning about. Maybe this is because I like things that make me confused. Stories that make me think and reread it. This is that kind of story. A confusing yet satisfying story.

The Day We Took the NCAE

          Entering the room, a lot of questions came to my mind. Some are, who will be my seatmate? Who will be our proctor? How hard will the test be? When I entered the room, I saw that I will be sitting on the first chair. Then I got nervous. I did not know the person sitting next to me. I was so far away from my classmates.

After a while, our proctor arrived. First, he introduced himself to us. He shared a lot about his knowledge throughout the test. We were so quiet while taking the test. No one dared to speak. Even during our break time in the morning. But, during lunch, our proctor told us that we could speak a little. That we should try to speak because, the room was so quiet. So they started talking. Our proctor shared some stories about his experiences on being a proctor on NCAE. He also shared his knowledge about paper bills. He showed us the different secrets that a simple paper bill hides. Before resuming our test, we took a picture with our proctor.

As we resumed taking the tests, we returned to being quiet. The test was so long. I consumed a lot of time answering the OIISSS. It was so long. But we were able to finish early. So when we were all done, our proctor collected the test booklet and our answer sheets. After that, he dismissed us then we went back to our rooms.
