DIDACTIC ESSAY
FORGIVE
When someone does an upsetting action towards you, which gravely affect your emotional and mental state, choosing to forgive is the last thing that crossed in our minds. Naturally, choosing to uplift pride is reasonable since you're hurt and torn by their actions. However, holding grudges for a long time isn't anticipated for it can lead to a lot of long term health problems, and is against as well towards the teachings of God. Therefore, by forgiving, you'll be release from the agonizing pain and at the same become a faithful abider or God's commandments.
According to a study of Toussaint et al. (2018), the respondents who admitted of helding onto anger and hostility over the course of a decade were discern to have lower cognitive abilities than the others who have no grudges. Dr. Meghann Gerber, a psychologist from Hall Health Center, says that holding into grudges can lead a person to stress. This stress is harmful as it contributes to sleep problems, issues in memory, and more serious health problems. Through this, it will gravely impact your life in general. True happiness and peace will never be found when your grudges were kept longer. Hence, it is crucial to remember that forgiving someone will let you heal.
Forgiveness is also one of the commandments given by God. According to Matthew 6:14 (NIV), "For if you forgive other people when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you”, when you're ready to forgive other people, a great reward will be given back to you. It might happen through financial, mental, and even through a lot of sectors in your life. Yet if you chose not to, Matthew 6:15 (NIV) warns us that the Father will neither forgive you for your trespasses and you wouldn't receive any goodness through the course of your life. Though it may be a powerful statement and may sound ridiculous to hear, but God is a God of all possibilities. Nothing is impossible to Him for He is the creator of everything (Luke 1:37).
Although, even if forgiving someone is crucial, it shouldn't be done abruptly. In order for forgiveness to work, it requires time for the person who received pain to think a lot of times, and to reflect as well in order to eventually heal. In accordance to the statement of another professional named Dr. Angela Buttimer, focusing on making progress is crucial in the course route of forgiveness. Every day, learn how to slowly let go all of the anger and resentment you built upon within you. In this case, you'll be able to achieve a good result.
Living a life filled with forgiveness is a life that will bring you happiness and peace. No matter how difficult it may be to do, remember that by doing so will free you from any stress and troubles of feeling pain in your heart. Releasing it would earn you peace to move forward and have a joyous life ahead. Also, it makes God glad whenever you choose to forgive than to suppress and remain on resenting. Do remember that with forgiveness, it has a positive affect on your life. Always choose to express and embrace forgiveness for a better life.

REFLECTIVE ESSAY
DREAM FOR YOURSELF, NOT FOR VALIDATION
Why do we dream? There are a lot of possible reasons why we do. But to put it simply, it is for us to go beyond the life we had at the moment. As we wished to become much more, we tend to dream bigger that sometimes leads us to make unrealistic dreams that is far too impossible for us to achieve. Although dreaming big is not bad, but it is also the reason why many fails to become happy in life. We overpressure ourselves to fulfill the unrealistic list of things that we set upon to accomplish as we thought it would help us to become someone we want. However, we failed to see that it isn't the case. We overlooked to notice that being dreamless isn't a bad thing but plausible to achieve happiness and contentment in life.
Big dreams are really a big thing to have. Especially as a little kid. To become a kid of society, you are expected to have a dream profession as this will mold you to become who you will be when you grow up. If you have a dream at an early age, then most likely you'll become one of the most successful ones in the industry. However if you don't, then you are considered falling behind. These instances relates to my own experiences when I was a little girl. Different kinds of people, from any gender or age, will constantly ask me about my dreams. And since I was a child who loves to receive recognition, I ended up becoming a child who tells people about various kinds of professions just to satisfy them. Until I end up forming very unrealistic ones. But now, as I finally understood how dreams should work on our life, it result to a conclusion learning not to treat dreams as a big thing.
Honestly, I never got peace in my life whenever I set goals. For me, having ambitions in life feels like an anchor under the sea that limits me to go beyond. Surprisingly having none gave me more freedom to explore new things in my own pace and time without over pressuring and hating myself. Although I know that being dreamless can give peace does sounds amiss, but surprisingly it makes a great sense. Without goals, you will never feel disappointed, or pressured, of yourself for not meeting your expected list of requirement to accomplish on a limited time. I also want to emphasized that being dreamless doesn't mean that you already gave up on life, or you're lazy nor scared. It just means that you don't want to limit yourself on a redundant cycle of goals.
Society's perception about dreams having a great impact on oneself towards achieving success may be true, but when it comes in action it is difficult to apply it and do. Instilling that mindset will hinder you to become truly satisfied with yourself as you'll end up realizing that you're stuck on an endless loop of seeking for more life achievements to earn. To put it simply, you'll never be satisfied. In my case, it was indeed challenging and nerve-wracking to set goals and make dreams because no matter how hard I try to make something from my list of dreams to work, especially to make it stay on my mind, it never seems to do what I'm expecting it to do. Hence, it results to disappointment. Since I believe to the notion of the significance of having a dream, I constantly tries to make one. But, at the same time, I then end up hating the dream I established thus resulting to a bigger disappointment. I failed to realize that the dreams that should be helping me to grow was the one slowly destroying me.
As my expectations grew higher and higher, so as my anxiety. For years of tireless searching for a suitable dream like everyone has, I become more and more unhappy and frustrated with the way how I live my life. Until one day, all of a sudden, I ended up not dreaming something great for my future. Honestly, I couldn't remember when it started feeling that way. It just popped up on my mind, like a miracle given by life itself, and slapped me harshly which made my eyes open to the reality. I finally understood what life is and that it doesn't revolve on success or power. I came up with a realization that having a simpler or even a dreamless life wouldn't make you less. Even though it's true that dreams are still helpful to prepare and make us ready to built a path for ourselves someday. And even if it may be applicable for some, it doesn't apply for some as well. Like me, there are some who aren't good at keeping up on the same pace in life as some likes to embark on a much more thrilling and liberating direction. There are some people as well that wants to remain only in between, while others likes to go with the flow. Given these points, it can be perceived that we do and thought things in life differently.
In conclusion, having a dream isn't the rightful basis for success. Success does not depend on our dreams whether we'll achieve what we expect to in our life. Dreams are supposed to be felt, not to obligate us. As it should make us feel more motivated, hopeful, and determined in life. When dreams makes us feel burdensome, it's not a dream anymore we're seeking. Instead, it only means that you're seeking for belongingness to the rules of the world and not the thing you're expecting dreams to be. Dreams should remain as dreams that will help us to become better, and to prosper and grow.

Mental Health is Important!
The Interact Club of MediaTech Quezon City, and was led by Bernadeth Pasco, conducted a Mental Health Seminar in Jose Maria Panganiban Senior High School.
There was a professional psychologist who gave a talk and explained to us the importance of reaching out and releasing stress whenever we feel like it. She also answered some of our questions that we put inside the box that was place on both male and female restrooms of JMPSHS.
It was a successful event I must say. I learned so much, and would apply some of the lessons on my own.

Thankful!
Rosenelle and I were busy after the exam as we’re about to go on an errand to bind our two research papers for III. However, since we don’t have any funds, especially since our groupmates didn’t gave their share for it, so we’re left with no choice but to get our share on the profit we got from selling our products during the implementation week of Entrepreneurship.
Since our whole profit is on Elijah, we went our ways there. As we got in their house, Elijah’s mom showered us with hospitality by offering us food and made us feel comfortable in our stay there. I’m absolutely thankful for her because we’re able to rest for a while before going our way to the printing shop in Novaliches Center.
She’s the best!

Lost
One of my most important things is my usb, but now I lost it. It was actually my second time losing it, yet this time I haven’t got the usb back. I’m thinking that maybe I already lost it when I placed it inside of my pocket. But I’m not sure if it really is the reason why I lost the usb.
Either way, I’m hoping I can retrieve it. For the meantime, I’m thankful that I got to save some of the files on my laptop. At least we’re saved.

Work Immersion
Based on my and Ma’am Alto’s calculations, we should be done on our work immersion time, but that wasn’t possible because there's still lots of things to do at the library and also, I wasn’t able to fill in my remaining hours because of my hectic schedule and emotions in the past weeks.
So now, I'm still here at the library with my co-workers while we all try to accomplish what has to be done. Even though we feel exhausted trying to finish all our work here, but for the sake of helping Ma’am Alto, we chose to accomplish it.
Good luck on us!

A New Experience
I was invited to an event held in Quezon Memorial Circle. Even if it's a bit exhausting since all we did was to fall in line and walk around the whole day, but I actually had fun.
I got to experience different kinds of activities such as trying to become like a radio dj, playing darts and nerf guns, face painting, and being in a kind of concert. Not only that, I had fun bonding with Rosenelle's family as we feast together.
It's a kind of experience that is new to me, and I love every moment of it.

Thesis Defended!!!
Finally, after two months of grueling work on our thesis paper, we got to present our paper to our panelist. But it's not just an approval, we actually gained great feedback and congratulations from them which made me feel overjoyed.
I wasn’t expecting that I’ll receive great words of approval. In fact, I am expecting lots of criticism from them. But this day proves me wrong of my assumptions. Due to their countless appreciation for our work, I am really filled with overpowering happiness today.
But who am I kidding? We worked so hard for that paper. It is reasonable that it’ll turn out good. Most especially since we got lots of help from our colleagues, to which I'm forever grateful for.
Congrats to us, my co-researchers!

Defense is coming!
We're scheduled to defend our paper tomorrow, so it's reasonable that I feel nervous. However, I didn't feel quite like it right now. Maybe because I just want to finish our last requirement in III so that I can finally move on with my life, but the truth was becausemy cousin boost my confidence. Yesterday, I met all my cousins and she was one whom I met that day. I confide to her all my rants, and at the same time asked her for pieces of advise for my defense. I gained adequate lessons from her to which I'll be using for tomorrow.
This is it pansit! I'll do my best!

Had Fun!
I got early out from school today because I was excused by my mom for we’re about to meet my cousins! We got off at 9:30 to meet my relatives from America. As we got closer, fear still crept inside of me, but I reminded myself that it will be all fine. When I got to meet Cedric and Zoe for the first time, they welcomed me wholeheartedly. We talked and talked randomly about things that interests us, it was great. Though I know that I should be closer with Cedric because his age is much closer than mine, however I become closer with Zoe because I vibe with her humor more.
Other than that, we did lots of things today. We visited our relatives’ grave, went to the mall to eat and bond, and then afterwards went to their condo to take a swim. This day is filled with great memories that I will forever cherish.
Can't wait to see them again someday!

Unexpected Gala!
I am still feeling a bit blue, just like what I’m going through for the past days, but when I got into school. I was welcomed by warm hugs and greetings from my friends. Apart from that, the good thing that happened today was our unexpected stroll in Fairview Terraces.
Iresh, Rosenelle and I went our way to the mall to bond together since we weren’t able to do that anymore. Upon entering the mall, we went to a supermarket to buy ourselves some snacks for us to devour as we chitchat about random topics.
We ate and laughed all day. It was incredibly fun.
I mark this day as one of the memorable moments I spent during my senior high school days. Truly, a day to remember!

-------------- Independence Day! ------------------
After four days of self-loathing and reflection, I got the desire to go back to school and finish what I’ve started.
I managed to wake up early and tidy up myself, because of my mom, but only to be left disappointed when I find out that there’s no classes since it’s currently a holiday today.
My mom, on the other hand, laugh it out. She also has a supposedly important errand today but since it’s holiday, she can’t go for there are no working offices today.
Both of us were left with no choice but to stay at home.
Yet even if she wasn’t able to do what she has to do today, my mom is still grateful for not experiencing the strong pour of the rain outside.
Because of her vibe, I adapt it as well and chose to look for the brighter side.
I could say that I am ready let go some of my negative feelings behind, just like what my mom did.
A perfect situation for a special occasion of Independence Day.

Am I feeling a bit better?
I’ve been constantly asking myself if I am feeling quite better now. Some days, I’ll tell myself that I am, but most of it were the days that I don’t really feel like living.
This is the day that I feel like it. Actually, it’s difficult to constantly blame myself for every embarrassing moment I could remember while hoping that it didn’t happen in the first place.
Will I get better soon? I’m hoping that I will be because I don’t want to be stuck on an endless loop of miseries.
I want to get out. I want to get better.

Gloomy Day.
I was supposed to come to school today because I still need to fulfill my promise to Ma’am Diesta about complying our thesis paper this week. However, due to my mood swings, I wasn’t able to do it. So, at this moment, I feel absolutely disappointed on myself for failing to do what I’m supposed to do.
I’m a mess right now. I don’t have any idea what to do.

Picture, Picture, Smile for the Picture
Photographers were sent to our school today to conduct our graduation pictorial, and I really am excited for this. I bet there are people in the HUMSS’ strand were feeling the same thing as well since some were busy giving themselves some glam for the pictorial. I, on the other hand, was doing the same thing.
It was actually the first time I fixed myself for pictorial since for most of my pictorials, there is someone who will assist me on doing it, so I never got the chance to do it myself. Although, Randylle was supposed to help me, but when I notice that there were lots of my classmates who ask her to glamour them. Therefore, I made a decision to do it myself.
After doing so, I think I did a decent job on fixing myself for the first time.
A big shout out of appreciation to Eliza for helping me on curling my hair. You are the best!

Drenched
It was heavily raining today, and we were unlucky to caught up with the rain while we’re on our way to buy the stuff we needed for our business. Rosenelle and I still went our way despite being drenched, due to the reason of needing to fulfill the remaining days of our entrep performance task for the sake of a good grade.
When we finally got into Rosenelle’s house, she lent me some clothes. At first, I thought I’ll be riding jeepney’s in a loose short, but Rosenelle’s father offered to drive me home, and so I was saved from public humiliation.

Dr. Jelly & Mr. Doughnut
I don’t have any idea what day we are in terms of selling our products for entrepreneurship, but at least we’re making progress. That’s what matter to me.
Today, we decided to sell our iced coffee jelly to our school. It was made with gulaman, coffee powder which we bought from Savemore, and ice of course. I review our product a solid 8.5 out of 10 because it needs improvements, but the taste is still satisfactory to me.
It’s crazy actually that we’re able to sell 16 cups every time we’re selling this product.
Hooray for our business!
