My letter to my future family

  Dear Beloved Family, As I go through different hardships, I really want to thank you guys for making me feel at ease when I come home, especially you, my wife. Many people may not know how caring you are. The things you do to make me happy are truly exceptional – preparing dinner for the whole family, reminding me to be careful, ensuring everything is in the car already. I genuinely appreciate the kiss when I'm leaving for work and the effort to cook for me when I return, even though I'm completely tired. I still can't resist how delicious your cooking is; it's like dining in an expensive restaurant. Thank you, my love; I'm truly grateful for you. To my son and daughter, I want to acknowledge that while Daddy may not spend as much time with you as he'd like, I appreciate the moments we share, especially with you, my son Winston. Even amid your busy schedule preparing for exams, you still make time for activities like playing badminton, something we both enjoy....

What I Can do for my community

The world produces about 400 million tons of plastic waste a year, but the recycling rate for plastic is even lower than previously estimated. This is where the picture comes in. We all understand that waste poses a significant threat to our world, country, nature, and, more specifically, our community. By incorporating recycling into our daily lives, we have the power to save lives. I mean, who wouldn't want to contribute to saving lives? Consider, for instance, a teenager named Juan who enjoys drinking soft drinks from water bottles but tends to discard them anywhere – yes, anywhere at all. So, what do you think will happen to that water bottle? Naturally, it can cause harm to us. Let's say, for example, that the water bottle ends up in a canal and becomes the cause of a flood. In such a scenario, our entire community is adversely affected. The impact of recycling the items we can recycle is genuinely powerful, as it can shield us from undesirable events, particularly floods ...

  Dear Beloved Family, I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to all of you for the thoughtful things you have done for me. To my mother, who has always been my comfort and support, whether it's packing my breakfast, reminding me not to skip dinner, or wrapping the books I recently bought from Shopee. Your love and care mean the world to me. To my father, who tirelessly works all day to provide for us. I remember asking for a badminton set, not fully realizing the financial strain we were under. Yet, on Christmas, I was shocked and overwhelmed with joy when you handed me the very badminton set I had been dreaming of, saying, "Nak, para sa'yo." I was moved to tears and couldn't express my gratitude enough. Thank you so much, Papa. I love you. And to my two brothers, thank you for always being there for me. Whether we're playing chess or badminton, your company brings me immense joy. I recall a funny incident when we lost track of time playing checkers u...

Stress Tips Video

  Our recent group project in school, where we created a video presentation on stress tips, holds particular significance for me as an adolescent student. Serving as the voice-over for this video presentation provided me with valuable insights into the challenges of adolescence, which were especially pertinent at the time due to my own stress over a low quiz score. The project allowed me to delve into practical stress management techniques tailored to our stage of development, making it personally relevant. It emphasized the importance of understanding and effectively coping with the stressors that often accompany this critical phase of life, contributing to my personal growth and well-being. The process was not only educational but also incredibly enjoyable and empowering, as it allowed me to learn deeply and apply the strategies we were discussing in the video to alleviate my own stress.

  As an adolescent student, participating or creating the "Feel the Feeling" crossword puzzle activity was particularly relevant to my stage of development. Adolescence is a time of intense emotional growth and self-discovery. Engaging with a puzzle that explored various emotions like happiness, sadness, and excitement not only sharpened my vocabulary skills but also helped me reflect on the complex feelings I encounter as I navigate this critical phase of my life. It highlighted the importance of understanding and expressing our emotions, contributing to my personal growth and self-awareness.

Development Stage Report Video

  Reflecting on our personal development activity as a high school student who is currently in the stage of adolescence, I found it especially enlightening to explore the physical changes that occur at different life stages, from prenatal development to old age. It became clear to me that adolescence is a critical period of rapid physical and emotional changes, as I personally experience this transition from childhood to early adulthood. This stage is marked by not only growth spurts but also the development of my own identity, self-esteem, and relationships, which deeply influences my personal development. This newfound knowledge hit home, highlighting the significance of providing support and guidance to teenagers like me during this pivotal phase in our lives. This experience deepened my awareness of the rich tapestry of human life and the importance of cherishing every phase.

Recipe For Success

In creating my recipe for success as a senior high school student, I've included many essential ingredients needed to succeed in life. I like to think of the process of achieving success as similar to baking a cake a delicate mix of elements that come together harmoniously. In this comparison, patience stands out as a crucial ingredient. Just like a cake that takes time to rise and fully bake, the journey to success requires persistence and steadfast determination, especially in the face of challenges along the way. Patience is not merely about waiting; it involves learning from the hard times and savoring the sweet taste of success when it finally materializes. Similar to a baker refining the skills needed for each cake, in the pursuit of success, patience becomes a catalyst for growth, flexibility, and resilience. It makes the entire process as important as the ultimate success. Among the ingredients for success that I've included are hard work, discipline, time management, p...
