10TH MEETING: ANSWER FOR GUIDE QUESTIONS FOR JOURNAL ENTRIES

At that moment I am so sad, lonely, feeling so alone, no one to talk to and to share with whom can understand what I am sufferring through or the others may say emo.

I were so inlove with one of my friends but he happened to be in a relationship. I was so depressed after I knew that so I went to my friends house were in they were drinking some alcoholic drinks. And because I have a big problem I doesnt think what would be the consequences of what am gonna do. I do get drunk. When some of my friends decided to stop I and one of my friend challenge each other (but i cant remember who won). And then we take some time to cool our self but they say I am crying out loud with my friends.

Way back to our house I do smell alcohol so I acted one not drunked. Perfectly acted and they didnt noticed it. I just straightly go to my room to get some sleep. And the next morning they said why am I that sleepy when I got home? What did I do and where did I went? I tell them the truth and they reacted on it. As usuall to our parents do. They told me that its bad for me so I better not do it again.

Lessons learned, OMG! that was the first time I'd experience drinking and I havent remember what I've done when I am with my friends house. I will not do the samething again I will try something new that will make me forget all the sadness like shopping.

8TH MEETING: ANSWER FOR GUIDE QUESTIONS FOR JOURNAL ENTRIES

I'd take the Tell the Truth challenge. Well actually, its not a big challenge for me. To tell you the truth I cant hardly even try to tell a lie especially when it comes to my family and friends and even somebody but white lies (too small that you can ever imagine like: not helping or giving foods to some beggars eventhough I have money or food inside my bag, i'll just said "sorry" or sometimes run) sometimes.

Its too hard for me to do some such lies, my conscience is always there its like a river that never stops running. I cant find an exact word for it but its really hard for me, promise. Its not that I am being boastful but that the reality.

Every white lie that I am telling its like its killing me. It never stops flashing ang rewinding and rewinding and rewiding in my mind. If I will suffer such a sleepless nights that only means that I have done something that my conscience cant afford. Except I am doing some school works.

I realize that I am realy the real me infront of any body and everybody. I am not a poser I am just me. Me and only me.

The Most Challenging Thing I have ever Accomplished

This journal describes one of my own experience of completing a task, given your full effort, dedication and determination. Its an accomplishment were in I reak the peak of the mountain.

A group of my cousins planned to go to Mt. Makulot, located at Cuenca, Batangas. That was during the Lenten Season. I really want climbing and camping activies so I decided to join them. As the days pass by and that day seems o so near. I am imagining my self climbing at that mountain with no worries and all I am thinking is to be at the peak of that mountain seeing all the beautiful sceneries, to take some photos of mine, and imaging that I would be able to find our house on that high. Even once I never think of mountain climbing would be too hard.

The days that I've been waitng for had finally came. Actually before the sun sets I doesn't have any sleep. Am surely that excited. As we go to our destination we were seing so many people walking going to the church. I was so amazed because as far as I know many of us are not into sufferrings and believers of God. But I was wrong.


Finally after a very long walk were at Mt. Makulot. At first we started climbing the small one then after that was the Mt. Makulot. It was one fun, tiring and trilling one. Climbing up was the easy one compare to going down. There are many hard and big stones that you need to get through and huge roots of large tall trees. There is one thing that I have learned to, you must be able to bring enough water for the whole day for you not to be thirsty. Cause almost or I say all of the foods their selling are so expensive. An example of it was 1 small plastic cup of juice would cost Php. 10 and no discounts.

Those hard and big stones and huge roots of super large trees that I have mentioned I imagine them all of my obstacles in life. So to be able to pass through those things I just think that if I will not be able to got to the peak of this mountain it would only means that I would not be successful in everything that I do in my life. So I do all my very best to face all of that. At last I finally reached the peak of the mountain, and after I have seen that mezmerizing sceneries I became hyper and energized again.

Hope that I would climb and have a camping experience at a higher one. :)

4TH MEETING: ANSWERS FOR GUIDE QUESTIONS FOR JOURNAL ENTRIES

Self Evaluation

1. As I have seen the results of the said activity, I'm quite shocked. I wasn't expecting that most of them will wrote that I'am a happy type of a person.

2. a.Given the following situations, how would you like to be treated by your teachers and schoolmates:

-when you have given wrong answers to the questions during recitation;

Well as I far as I know nobody is perfect, so I'am expecting that even I have answered it wrong my classmates and even my teacher must or should show some appreciation. Atleast I did try to answer their question eventhough its wrong. And they should explain the right answer in a nice way. In a way that it cant hurt my feelings.

-when you are expressing your opinion during class or group discussion;

Everyone of us must listen to everyones opinion to simply show some respect. If you dont want to listen then better shut your mouth and dont murmur and dont even try to do some things just to interrupt.

-when you commit mistake;

As I have said no body is perfect so its just so ordinary to commit mistake/s. Everyone of us commint mistake so just accept the mere fact. And understand the one whom commited a mistake.

-when you don’t like doing what they ask you to do and when they want to give you their comments or suggestions?;

For me, I really want people who give their comments and suggestions because from them I may know what are the things that I might need to improve. If they ask me to do things that I didn't want to, well it depends. If I my self will benefit on those things I think I just do it and reverse.

b. Considering the given ideas on how to treat others with respect, what can you commit to yourself in terms dealing with the MCL community: teachers, students, employees, security, maintenance/janitors and canteen personnel?

As a student of MCL and as a human being I just respect them the way they respected me. So in other words if you want me to respect you better respect me to as a human being and a student and if not I will do the other way around.
