Method of Paragraph Development by NARRATION


           You may have read so many stories in your childhood that began with Once upon a time. Storytelling is one of the best forms of narrating. Narration is a method of paragraph development which recounts an event or a story of some sort.

           Example:
             A new venture has started. I am now in the real world of communication. Currently, I am working at the Public Information Office in Lucena City. During the first day, we had an orientation on what we are going to do regarding the tasks that may be assigned to us. Also, we heard some advice from media men like Sir Sonny who told us some tips that we may use. Likewise, we observed the daily routine of the staff for us to be guided.
             The next day, however, could be said as the real start. Around 1:30 in the afternoon, we were sent to SM City Lucena to cover the LMSTC graduation rites. As the event progressed, we took down important notes and messages of the guest speaker needed for the press release which we had written afterwards. It was really a flattering but a fulfilling experience to write such an article. After this, I was assigned to interview a lady who had lost her bag then made an announcement aired in different radio stations in Lucena. It really is worthwhile to practice the profession I love so much.

  4. Hello and Good afternoon ma'am. You don't need to delete my old comments. I already done it and made a revised and summarized one. Thanks ma'am :D Here it goes:

    "A Sweet Nightmare"

    What would you feel when you woke up in a place you didn't know where after you had a sweet dream? Obviously, I know it would be really really sick and embarassing for you feeling that fate thrown all the misfortunates of the world on you. Well, this would my mind-blowing experience be all about. It all started when I went in Manila last August all by myself for a very very special and starstrucking moment in my life. I had so much fun on that day with the Garcia Family and with my friends. That day was been a really really memorable and unforgettable experience. But what made it really really memorable and unforgettable, was the moment when I woke up after I had a sleep in a bus I rode to go home. I was so surprised, shocked and embarassed because I didn't know that I was already in a very very unfamiliar place right behind a sea, a port in Dalahican, Lucena. I don't know what to do on that time feeling God collided me the sky and the ground; but I was still hopeful of going home and luckily I was. That day was really a mind-blowing experience; something like a sweet nightmare; a treasurable one in my life that taught me a lesson not to lose hope even in the critical level of hopelessness.

  5. "TAKE ONE"

    Discovering many things rotates in me as I enter from one dimension to another which proves me of having an adventurous life. I’ve experienced lots of things that merely taught me of what life is. I am a person whose mind is inside a diminutive box that exploded after those experiences that helped to go out on that box. I think I’m ready to be able to face loads of challenges and I believe that every teachings in life, it will lead me to great success. Many said that I wasn’t able to be a director of many stage plays and variety shows. I will prove them wrong because I have already directed such things and the audiences liked it so much. And on those things, I suppose that I was destined to be a communication student even though my father didn’t want. I still believe in faith and God’s grace that He will lead me to the path where I belong. Truly, experience is a best teacher because, it can manipulate many things entering in your mind. Happiness, tragedies, solidarity, and even sorrow will always be in my mind and I want those things to assist me to build a better me.

  6. Many things had happened in my life.There's a time that i lose hope but i realized that it is only a test in my life .My experience that really blows my mind is when my heart got broken in my first relationship. I thought that he is the right man for me. We have many plans about our future but as times goes by I realized that its all wrong because many things that are common to us that cause an argument and it lead to breakup.It really hurts but of course life has to move on.I realized that life is not all about happiness. We may encounter difficulties that we may think that we cannot face it.But after we solved those trials it feels like we accomplished something and we became a better person.I believe that experience is the best teacher in our life because we learn through experience.

  8. Mind-blowing, I don't think I have any Mind-blowing experience yet..... Not for my standard that is. But there is one certain event that lasted for about one and a half hour, that change the following days after that event(about 18 days I think),in my life.

    I was 11 years old. A typical day for a elementary student, eager for the allowance in the morning, hyper-active during recess, and excited to get out of class during the afternoon. Just when i think everything would go according to plan that day....... the Cinemax has to play the......

    "13th Ghost"

    It's about a family, that inherited lots of money and a really magnificent glass house from their pretending to be dead "Uncle", but inside, in the basement to be exact, lies 12 earth-bound ghost (the first born son,the torso,the bound woman, the withered lover,the torn prince,the angry princess, the pilgrimess, the great child and the dire mother, the hammer, the jackal, the juggernaut). Then my misery started. Well I wanted to watch it.... and i did, well i wanted to watch it more serious, but the effects and the sound and the ghost, I don't wann'a reminisce anymore.

    That night, I did not sleep. Mom had to put a cross on my forehead, just to have something to lean on ("pampakalma", i don't know how but it calmed me, guess it worked"). Every time I go to the bathroom I always think that the "angry Princes" is there. I had monophobia, fear of being alone, because every time I'm alone I think I'm with one of the ghost. That lasted for about two or three weeks.

    But I'm strong, and I conquered my fears( at least some of it). So after that, I was "OK", I'm still bothered when ever I watch it but I'm cool, I'm cool with it now.

    So mind-blowing experience, there you go.

  9. Leadership times...

    Two consecutive times I had attended a national leadership training in Bagiuo City, namely the 6th and 7th NLTSGO or the National Leadership Training for Student Government Officers that happens every month of September. Its a DepEd program for the high school young leaders of the country. It was a great experience for me not only as a student officer but a student brother to my co-officers as well. This developed my skills on communication and public administration that even on a young age I am aware of what was happening today in our country. It was a week consuming seminar, most of the times was rendered just for talks and activities prepared by smart and famous people. I experience to live on a hotel and to live as a rich man on an exclusive country yard. On each day, new faces from different regions in the Philippines I talked and worked with. It was really tiring, but the blood and strength we offer was fulfilled. I just make every moment happy to make every moment memorable and great. I wish I could go back join on that event but I'm already old for that, but I can go back as a teacher/adviser to the officers to continue the mission of friendship. ;)

  10. My experience that I must say,really blow my mind is that when I learn how to give some importance to other people that surrounds me.

    Back when I was in high school.I always say that "do it on your own."
    I will let them but I will not help them.That's the bad thing I know I must improve to my self.
    One time,I met a guy who told me that he likes me.At the back of my mind I know that I like him too,but I'm not sure if he is telling the truth.He always insist that,but I don't believe in him.And it just so happen that I lost him,that's the time that I realize the importance of him to me.Now that we're back again,I will value him as much as he value me.

  11. Something that made me feel UNCOMFORTABLE...

    It was happened on the last day of September. The wind was getting colder and it made me feel shivered. I can hear the bristle of the leaves and the whisper of the wind. Suddenly, a text message appeared on my phone. I opened it and the message say's, "Please come out! I'll wait for you here at the mango tree". Without knowing what might happen, I went out to see him. At a very pleasing moment, without saying any single word, he touched my hand and began to whisper something. I was so speechless that time and I couldn't even say something even the expression "hooo". The feeling is really unexplainable. After a few minutes, without any doubt, he flauntly told me, "I love You Very Much".

  13. "MY BIG EXPERIENCES"

    When I was in elementary,I was a fat and dark child.Whenever I have a crush on someone,they just laugh on it.I think they do it because I am ugly,fat,or dark?.My classmates and cousins are always teasing me like "ANG TABA MO!,ANG ITIM MO PA!",it really hurts my feelings whenever they do that,everybody got hurt when someone do that to you,right?.Then it comes to my mind that I need to loose weight,don't bother my skin color,cause it is my natural color,hehe.When vacation comes,before 1st year,I am not always eating breakfast,when lunch,just a small amount of rice and viand,and in dinner just a small amount also,sometimes I didn't eat also.I do it for almost three months,then,when the first day of high school comes,my old classmates got shock,when they saw me.After that,there is just one thing that comes to my mind "Now,tease me!",haha,I'm so bad ,right?.But it's all over.I forgive all my classmates and cousins,past is past right?.

    Whenever some people are asking me or asking for help to loose their wight,they always asking me "how do you loose your wight?,is it hard to do?" I just say to them,"You will do all things if just trust to yourself".I'm so happy that I can help other people base on my experiences.It is true that experience is the best teacher in life.

  14. Experience..it can teach us lessons that will make things better.Experiences that will bring us in the reality of life.Those lessons is maybe a key to have a happy and prosperity living.

    As i looked back my past,there is a boy who easily caught my attention.A guy who is always wearing his smiles.I want to meet him,to talk with him and to share my thoughts to him.As time passes by,God don't hesitate to give me chance to meet him.I was shocked when suddenly a gentle and a soft voice whisper to my ear,saying that he loves me.I'm so happy that time,we are always together and sharing our smiles to each other.He always saying that he loves me more than to his life and he will never ever leave me no matter what happen.I love him so much so i don't even hesitate to believe on what he was saying.One rainy morning,his classmate gave me a letter.I open it hurridly,this is the message "I'm sorry for making you believe for those words that i can't
    be able to prove.I lied.Please do forgive me.I just tried to make you happy and i did it.I don't want to hurt so much.I don't love you.SORRY and GOODBYE."

    Tears start to flow down my face.I can't believe that the person that i admired so much will hurt me.And now,i learned on what i encountered.Don't give your whole heart and your trust to the person that you don't know what his true intension.Don't give all your love,you must love yourself a little more.

  15. "In life there are no mistakes only lessons", a quotation from a friend that I will never forget. As time goes by, we do experience things that we will never forget. One of my mind blowing experiences is that when I became college. During my childhood days I've been far apart from my parents before and live independently.At first I was afraid to live independently. I am worrying on how I could do household chores while studying especially doing the laundry. It is hard for me to budget my money fr the whole week. Living an independent life is not easy, I need to clean up my things alone before going to school. IT was quite hard for me because I am always depending on my parents. I always cry whenever I am facing a simple problem. Now that I have experienced being independent, I've learned that life is not easy and we need to be sure with our choices. You will never know your mistakes if you'll never try, and from that mistake, you'll learn something.

  16. Every person has an experience to tell. And every experience has a lesson to learn. Let me share to you my one of the most teary stories, though it's short. Well, at an early age, I experience to eat a cup of rice with simply no viand at all. It's when we experience POVERTY. Me and my brother go to school without allowance or even some snacks to eat. My mother's business was stolen from by my relatives. And we have no choice but to accept it because if we fight for our rights, it'll just lead to a big disappointment. Our relatives treated us like a maid because they are the ones who give us food to eat and some money. Up to now, we are still experiencing that, though it's not obvious because my brother and I were still studying(because we are scholars, that's why).

  17. I’m just a simple man, living in a simple way but at the age if sixteen I experienced a lot. The best experienced I ever had is when I suffer the pain of a farmer and as a construction worker. At the age of sixteen I know how to gather palay and I can lift up a sack of palay. I learned it with the help of my parents especially with my father and also with my consciousness. And this thing really teach me a lot of lesson. That the farmer is not an easy thing, but my father told me that what I am doing is just a little bit of a true farmer. They teach me that thing to be prepared in my future and be aware in life. yes, were just simple, we're not rich and we are so lucky that we eat 3 times a day. I also become a construction worker at the Villa Elma. I feel the same pain but I am happy that at my age I can help my parents in our everyday life. Now, I am studying again, and as the eldest brother, I will do my best to be successful in life with my family. And I will treasure the thoughts and lessons of life and the lessons of my parents.

  18. " I' am nervous and ashamed and can't even badge on my seat and converse with them, its my first time"

    The sun had risen and its too early in the morning. I could not moved and I'm exhausted from a late night sleep which became my routine nightly since my high school days. Actually it was the enrollment day, though I'm withered, still I should have managed it so I can get to Lucban early as possible. Yes, because I am expecting a crowding on the area, possibly many incoming freshmen student would come to enroll. And that would be a long tiring day. Honestly, I was bored, the line was too long and the operation and transaction was slow moving while sweats were getting out of my skin. I looked haggard. What was the worst of all, was that the computer functioned improperly which cause a lot of troubles and took a long time to be fixed up. As a result I've waited for a long time and still by that time hunger haunts me, I have never eaten yet. In contrast, I am happy although it was stressful, at last I am enrolled. YAHOO!

  19. Many people have different and unforgettable memories in their own ways and in their own lives. In that ocean of people lies my name. For me, EVERYDAY are moments to remember. All this experiences passing in my life can't take it away, because this builds you as a person. It help us to learn from our unforgettable experiences, or I can say mistakes in our lives. All this lessons of life always marked in my CURIOS mind, it make us mature to face problems or challenges. There are so many mind-blowing experiences I have, one of this is, I'M A SLEEPWALKER since i was in kindergarten. It was a unique experience I had, but one time I saw on TV about sleepwalkers and I heard that it is a symptom of, SORRY i forget haha!.It only attacks on childhood years and it disappears when you are in the adolescence stage. Don't worry I will not WALK to your room, slam the door and sleep beside you(because i don't want to sleep with you. joke), this mind-blowing experience I will never forget.

  20. "EVERY EXPERIENCE, HAS EVERY LESSONS.."

    I'm only fifteen when i experience a great problem, trials or should i say difficulties in life.
    Do you know the feeling of having nothing?
    I thought if i have the world, i have "all", i thought living in the world is the most happiest in life...
    When the time i backslided from God, i feel the feeling of having nothing. I thought the world will give my needs, pleasure and satisfactory, but no.... instead of spending my times with God, i chose the world, which i think would give me my satisfactory and happiness.

    "Thank you Lord for reminding me... Thank you Lord for the Love...love...love... unfading love..." i cried after that "Bangungot" I know that it is my second life.. I am very thankful to have a second life after all satisfactory of the world...
    I thought it is the world, that will give me my satisfactory and happiness..
    I thought i will found my happiness in the world,
    but i'm wrong... It is only GOD who can give all we that we need.. all our satisfactory...
    I am happy to have God even though I'm poor. Not like of those popular artist which don't have God in life.
    "Thanks God..." i just say...

  21. Window Escape!

    One morning during my childhood days, I was playing inside our house, like an ordinary child does. If I'm not mistaken, I am 8 years old at that time, and playing is the only thing I love to do. I was very frisky who keep running about inside our house and cannot keep still. I was really exhausted playing, so I've decided to take a rest for a while. I stand on a chair, to be able to peep through the window, that's about doubled my height. I was about to reach the window, when the chair stumbled down, and PAK!- I fell outside the window... Ouch! (poor child) Then suddenly, I cry out loud, resulting for my mother to start panicking. The other day, I was brought to the hospital, to check if I am still in right condition. Fortunately, no broken bone was found, and I was released already. Unfortunately, the doctor advised me, not to play alone, for this tragic incident may happens again, in the blink of an eye.

  23. "Experience is the best teacher" this quote reminds me when I was in 2nd year high school. I was very insane at that moment when I don't think what I've been doing.

    I had a boyfriend and his name is Jason we do things whatever we want to we don't care about what others might think of us (Make sense). Other than that I have a friends whose always do cutting classes just to drink so whenever they ask me to go I will join them but as time fly my parents knew about this and me and Jason broke up.

    I'm a better person now and I can say that I've change in many ways. And I don't live for the expectations of people around me I live by myself by my family and friends who teaches me to become a better person. Past is past but I can make my future right by planning with my present.

  24. A prisoner was escape

    During my younger days, I am usually left alone, playing by my self. I didn't care about other peoples life. I don't want to get along with other people. My parents are usually pushing me to make friends but I usually refused. One time, the co-teacher of my mom asked me if I want to play tennis. I refused her offer because im to shy showing my self to other people. It took them lots of time to convince me. And they succeed. That was the first time I make friends with other people that is not part of my family. I learned to speak and share my thoughts to them. That thing changes me and let go the prisoner inside me. Until now, I still care the changes brought to me by that sport.

  25. In life, we sometimes experience things which we don't expect to happen, but as what they say our life is full of mystery so better keep on finding the answers into it's mysteries through learning from our experiences. When I was child as far as I remember, I only knew two things which are very significant for me. The first one is to play with my naughty but cool playmates all day long. When I get hurt and when my mother is not around it feels like I'm on a dark place filled with terrifying ghosts. As I grow, I became open into the reality that I should learn to stand on my own feet, so that whenever my parents are not around I can do it myself. Now, I am a freshmen student in Southern Luzon State University where I am far from my dearest family. Here, I am learning to do things all by myself and I'm glad I was able to do it which I thought at first I can't. I can now cook my own food, wash my clothes, balance my time and spend money wisely. while you take the hardships of standing alone, you are also gaining courage to be stronger for whatever trial may occur. I always keep on my mind that everyone experiences and feel the way that I do and so I'm not alone.

  26. I was sweaty,exhausted,and thirsty after the demanding performance at our school.I ran in the hall to find a drinking fountain,so I stopped for a while.When I stood up,I bumped to this incredibly handsome young man,with his perfect lips,nose,and smoky eyes.That young man is none other than my ultimate crush for almost two years of my high school life.I totally regretted that I washed off all the make-up on my face,I looked like a cloth washed from the drain.He looked at me to offer some helping hand and suddenly,butterflies on my tummy started to move.I never attempt to look back at him that moment for somewhat undefined reason.I did not even recognize him for being such a gentleman that very moment.As I passed by him,I suddenly slip off to the ground which probably caused by my clumsiness or only because of my anxiousness."God,please break this ground and let it swallow me until I totally scape from this world."

So I write not minding all hose noises and performances.As I lay my eyes on the performer, I saw he couple dancing waltz. It was so romantic. The man dancing there is so handsome. That I can imagine myself dancing to him.By that I remember again my 1st ex boyfriend, the one I truly loved. As I'm dreaming while watching. My cellphone rang. And as I look on to it and read it.Oh my gosh!!!!!I can't breath, I cannot believed this!

    "Getting over a painful experience is much like crossing monkey bars. You have to let go at some point in order to move forward". In my 16 years of existence, I have a lot of moments or experience that almost blow my mind.Most of the people,choose to share their happy moments than sad. So for now I'm going to share the most unforgettable experience or feelings I had. I know some of us already experienced to fall in love " Who will not be happy if that moment come to us" I thought it was magical and never ending story, but I was wrong it is just a temporary happiness. So let me tell you my story . I never imagine that this guy will come into my life. I don't know how or why but when I'm with him I'm so happy.We started as friends and then we became close until he courted me.That was the happiest moment in my life that time. When we are together, it seems like a fantasy it is an unexplainable feelings I ever had. At first we are very okay, we are always texting, laughing and having a bonding together. One time he and his family decided to have a vacation on Dubai. Although it was hard, I understand and accept the fact that we are not going to see each other for almost one month,but that time we still communicate by means of facebook. He always tell me that he miss and love me and that he will never forget me. And I always believe on what he say because I'm already falling in love with him that time. I always wait, until he came back. To make him surprise when he came back I'm going to give him my sweetest "YES".I planned a romantic style just to make him happy. Until he already back, I don't know why but every time Iam going to tell him that I'm ready to be his girlfriend he is always busy. He changed a lot, I always text him but I cannot receive any blank message or reply from him. I always ask myself what is wrong. I texted his mother, talked his sister and even chat his father just to ask what is happening. One time I decided to call him, just to clear what is the issue or wrong between us. When I talked to him , I asked him if he still want to court me them he just said "I don't know" suddenly a tears fall from my eyes and that was the word that hurt me the most. And in that time I decided to cut my communication with him. I erased all his text , pictures and even his number. It is very difficult because he is the one courting me and in that part I feel I'm the one who is being basted. Until now I'm still afraid to fall in love with someone because of this experience. I know it's very painful and hard but I have to move on and forget the past so I can focus I on my present.I know God has a great plan for all of us and I believe that everything has a reason. And I'll wait for my turn to fall in love again in a right time with the right person. In every experience we encounter there are a lot of discoveries and learnings that we can use to make us a better person.

    "Experience is really a good teacher." Yes it is true.I had this experience when I was in high school.

    I had to let go of the person whom I treasured for a long time.I had overcome to the pain that he had brought and finally I had end up the bitterness how time heal the wound the wounds the he had left. The past made me strong and help me to move on. For now he will remain to be my sweetest down fall.

    But now I am happy and contented being single, I am free got no commitment, no worries, no pretty lies. no heartbreak but still I will never get tired of waiting for someone who would have the courage to prove to me that that there's more love if he and me collides.

  32. Every summer becomes more and more exciting and more things to see.The one that stands out more to me is when my family and i planned a trip to the mountain site in our province.That really offers so much to do,such as horse backriding,hooking coconut and riding on a carabao etc.It was a great experienced when the whole family bond together.Being with them is the best experience that i will never forget wherever i go.Time cannot fade those memories.It feels good to turn back all the memories i had with my family whenever i`m away from them and miss them.I`ll juct find myself smiling.Because family is the only best of all the bests that been part of my life.Family is like the most valuable thing in my life that i don`t want to lose.

  33. In our lives,we encounter many problems,trials, challenge that God's gave us to be test if we can survive or not.There are many experiences that we will never forget and really blow our mind.Experiences that made us to be stronger because of big lessons that leaved to us,from many obstacles that we had.I do believe that experience is the best teacher.In my life,there are many problems and trials that our family encountered.Financial problems that many families have experience, but my most unforgettable experience and really blow my mind is when I'm in high school.I belong to a popular group in our school,the Performing Arts Ensemble(PAE) that change my life.But for me I don't want to join this group because I know to myself that I can't because I'm a very shy type person.But because of them they are the one who picked me up when I putting myself down.And because of them I developed my talent to improved more and I'm happy for that.

  34. "MY FIRST BROKEN-HEART"


    The most experienced that had a strong impact to my mind is when I experienced become broken-hearted for the first time.At the age of 14 I already experienced become broken.It is very early to become broken-hearted but the more your feeling is young the more it is very easy to be hurt.I was in my second year when I have my first boyfriend.I never think that our relationship will be go deeper because i know that we are too young and we didn't know how to handle or manage a relationship.But I didn't mind all of it,i follow what my heart says even if it is not good for me but all I know is .. I will become happy once I say yes to him because I also have a crush on him on that time.He court me almost a week.And when the time he ask me if I am ready to be his girlfriend,I told yes !!


    We didn't long so much because his family are going to Manila again and live there for good that's why he need to follow them.The first time I heard the news I didn't believed it but when he is the one who told me about that,the tears in my eyes are starting to fall down.They are running to fast that's why the only thing i did on that day was to cry.I feel very sad on that day because I know that he will gonna leave me and I know that maybe he will find someone to replace my place to his heart,but he explained to me everything so that i will feel much better.

    After 2 days he go,but before he leave me he gave me something that will remind him to me and until now I keep it.At first I didn't feel confuse about our situation but when the time goes by everything is changing between us.I broke up with him when I feel that something is not going right anymore and because of what I've done,he hate me back so much .. He didn't know that it's more painful for me because I did what is not what I want.It's so hard for me to move on.I experienced the hard stage of being in love.I always cried at night and even if I want to get to someone else again,I can't.How many month's goes so fast and I didn't feel that I've already over with him.And that's the experienced that really blow up my mind ..

  35. There are times that i feel so useless and all can do is nothing. Feels like i don't have a purpose in life, seems like everything that i do makes everything worst. I lost faith in God and always asking if he is real. I forgot the meaning of FAITH, LOVE, TRUST, HOPE and the word BELIEVE, i define this words as just formality for pretending that God do exists. I do not pray for guidance and not thanking him at all, he is just an illusion and some are just using him for money-making, science can explain everything.

    Not so long ago, i faced the time of my life wherein i don't have any faith in anyone. I was been rejected by my friends, i am being left behind by my family and i am being pushed away by everyone. I feel so isolated and decided to make my own world but where should i start?. Then a voice whispers in my ear and says "I am here where everyone don't want and need you. All I need was your love". That's when a tear fall off my eye and remembered that God is within me when I am nothing. My faith, trust and hope are being restored and I now there's no single moment that i don't believe in him. He is the one that I can lean on when when we feel like we're alone.

    One time I saw someone sitting on a porcha nd having the long sad face. I sit next to him and told him the things i've been through, the experience i've been through. In telling him a personal experience i think i have lighten up his mind about God and how much he loved us.

  39. "THE SERIAL KILLER"

    It is the month of December,were practicing our play entitled "Florante at Laura". The news in our town are getting worst as they said that the serial killer are in the town of Paete. Everybody was so scared because there are the gossip that the story is true. When we are practicing we cannot extend it until night cause we have to go home early cause were truly badly scared. Even when I go home I still scared cause the killer according to the chismis, the killer will knock on the door and kill your family. As the gossip are getting worse I use to pray, because it it the only powerful thing that will save us. Some of my friend got sick because of that serial killer and me I used to chill when the barangay tanod used to tell story about this. After a month the gossip is over it is true that a soldier was being sue by the police but not in that case,not by killing people,but because that soldier is a wool in his services. After I knew it all I laugh on what were doing in our past few months.We decided to practice our play until night so we can perfect it. That's what it takes to be a believer usually, believe by a false alarm. At least I knew that it just a false belief, and maybe if does continuous, maybe now I have a heart problem.

  40. Always wondering why if I am a true girl or a boyish my father said. When I was a little I woke up in the morning I will go to the place where I can find a spider. Instead of playing dolls I play cars and marbles.I don't know how to play chinese garters or even jackstones. Well, I guess its a kind of a uniqueness of mine.

    When I grow old some people said that " Oh, that is the girl who use to play spiders and cards. I was so embarassed that time, didnt expect that they remember me as a naughty girl. Also my father says that I'm so proud to my daughter she have a boyfriend right now, I thought she loves a girls.. How funny when I remember that. For me, its a past that can everyone can reminisced me as a little naughty and boyish girl but for now on she is a lady.

    In life we encounter unforgettable experiences that sometimes inspire us, makes us strong, reminds us to move on. And even expose us to discover the beauty of life. People will criticize you, judge you and even hate you but as long as you know yourself better don`t mind them. As long as God is there don`t give up problems are made for us to grow and to change for the better. One of the most unforgettable experience that really inspire me is when I discover the true meaning of friendship. My friends who taught me how to enjoy life. They, who helped me in times of problems. Their shoulder is always open for me to cry on. They inspired me and never leave me whenever I need a back-up. And now even if we part ways I still remember them whenever I need inspiration. We made a promised that five years from now we will have our reunion.

  42. "MY WALL-E"

    Experience that blows my mind? Hmm... maybe that would be that when I had this special someone besides me. Even though we don't know our status that time. I didn't really care what matters most is that what we feel about it especially when we're together. It really blows my mind whenever we are teasing with each other. Though we commit some physical harassment (haha), its nothing compared to happiness it brought us. And that "something" we feel. The atmosphere is so light that joking is not that hard to do. And when its over, its like the feeling won't fade away that fast. For some instances, when I share it with someone,"our story" it feels like the emotion is tied together with the story. Like bring back the emotions, the memories back to life.

  43. “EXPERIENCE IS THE BEST TEACHER”
    absolutely right. 100% agree!


    “He is my everything.”

    Sounds sweet right? My world rotates around his world. I am nothing without him. I’m crazy in love with my ex-boyfriend before. I really love him so much. We love each other a lot. We always had time together, we attended masses, went to mall, and spending a lot of time with my family and friends. We’ve been together for almost two and a half years.

    As time goes by, he left. He went to Florida USA to live with his family. I was pathetic all alone. It is just that I lost everything. I did things that I didn’t do when he is on my side. I went home late at night, I drunk with my friends and I always cut classes.

    Those experiences really blow my mind. I don’t even know who I am, where is the real me. Until I realized that things are going wrong so I decided to end up my relationship with him and to start my new life without him and to begin the chapter in my life which does not rotating on his world.

    With that I learned a lot. I learn that we must know when to hold on and when to let go. I learn that real love is when you love yourself more than anyone else. Love is for everyone not for only one.

  44. "A GREAT VISION OF ME"

    Let us take a walk and have a glimpse of my life.

    It was after a four years of facing a high school curriculum. A teenage life were a student undergoes in a troublesome activities in his life.

    At present time, I'm devoting myself to an institution of higher learning. A school offering specialized knowledge where I encounter an organized body of professionals.

    By this time, communication has a great effect in our society. It helps us in our daily activities, like communicating to one another from place to place. Seeing that communication has a great endowment in our society, I had thought of being a communication student.

    The clouds are cotton white, the sky is clear, the sun shines so brightly, I see from where I stand a great vision of me as a graduate in Bachelor of Arts, major in Communication. It was a quite long journey.

  45. "Life in this world is full of trials and experience,
    And so we are ought to be strong in order to face the challenges that life offers us."


    Hours, days and weeks ago, my family was put to challenges of life. "ERA OF DEPRESSION" - we were financially unstable. Money is a daily necessity for the following reasons: for my allowance here in Lucban, for my mom to cover up other debts, to assist mom's source of income since she is a delicacy vendor, and for my brother's tuition fee. Every night at bedtime, I always pray for my mama, papa and kuya who are all based in Sariaya that may God give them the comfort that they need, that may they overcome all the problems that they will be facing. Not a day or night that I skip thinking of them, how are they coping up despite of money shortage? What transpired truly affected us. My mom had a lot of debts to pay, her savings in the bank were all drawn out, the only way that my brother can have an examination was to make a promissory note, my allowances was not that enough to support my weekly needs and that I found it hard to join the field trip for i had nothing to pay for the fees.
    Because of these problems we encountered, I felt so depressed and helpless and i even came up to a point to stop studying. But as they say, "poverty is not a hindrance to reach your goal." This tag line paves the way for me to be strong enough to face those challenges. And later i found out, the only breadwinner in the family, my ever dearest mom, did find a way to look for prospective buyers so that a "rich land", a small piece of land which was inherited by my mom and her siblings from their grandparents will now be of help to us financially. "Thank you, Lord for the blessings." Thank you that one of the buyers gave her initial payment. Thank you that the land is now in the process of transfer of title. The rest of the money was used for a new beginning, put into capital to buy supplies of my mom's source of income: selling delicacies, sandwiches and the like. Her daily income is saved for the payments of the rest of the debts. Glad i was able to join the field trip...Too shy to admit, it was my first field trip.


    As of now, gradually our financial stability will be reached and i do hope this will continue to prosper. Thanks are to God.

  47. About a year and a half ago, at the same time and the same place, I was all alone feeling empty on the kitchen floor. Eating really helps when you are depressed. It was my bestfriend's funeral. At about nine o'clock in the morning I woke up with two layers of eyebags. I ran to the shower and fixed myself immediately while thinking that there is no other unrelated man I ever trusted in my life than my bestfriend, and he's gone. Three months had passed and I met this guy... He was a lot like him. In just a short time I gave him all my trust. More than what I have given to my bestfriend. I'm very thankful we had an official relationship that is going strong up to date.

  48. “CRAZY DEPRESSION OF MINE”
    Months and months passed when I still remember yesterdays. One wink and a flashback starts. I remember the time when I feel so alone, that nobody’s someone there to hold on. I feel like nobody’s love me. Tons and tons of problems and I am just the one who is fighting for it. For me, I am alone. I was starting schooling high school when I earn my hard work there. I become honor and “crush ng bayan” as other says. As I was entered the world of 3rd year. I learned that I have to get together with my classmates. But the coolness of mine is overlapped. I learned to drink every Friday until I entered 4th year. I met my ex-boyfriend. We're far from each other and the only communication we have is texting. And I know I changed a lot when I met him. But besides of all that, I forgot my studies. I failed my Math subject. I always texted him as I forgot to answer all my assignments. Then time comes that my cellphone lost. I feel so depressed because all are happens at the same time. I feel so problematic. It's just I'm up all night and crying thinking of what would happen next. I'm afraid not to graduate because I thought I failed all my subjects. I'm afraid for my relationship will end because of poor communication. And because of all that, I feel solo and no one loves me at that time. I feel alone and lonely. Many problems passed and I feel that things are happens the same way as before and nothing has change. How many times I tried to take suicide, but I think it’s an emo style and life is a great gift in each every one of us. I tried to overdose myself. I take in 21 different medicines but I am not affected. Thank God mom is always there for me. She did all her best to make me happy. She talks to my teacher about my problems. My mother cries in front of her. As my teacher in Math teach me about being brave girl along the way. I did all I can to control my tears but then it falls. I hugged my mom in front of my teacher and say sorry for being childish before.
    And now, the day that I was awaited came. It is now our graduation day and I finally made it. I am so thankful that I have a mom like her. She is the person that is always there for me. The person who is always stands out along the way. My mother, a great gift of God is the person who never let me down and alone. From now, I am a Communication student took the course of BA COMM studying here at SLSU knowing that “every man must face reality, we must face here and now, everything that was ‘not so’ ‘must go’. And now I learned my lessons that yesterdays’ past will last. These are just trials in my life. Crazy to think, but this is the crazy depression of mine.

  49. CAS PEP SQUAD!!

    being a part of a cheering squad was not one of my goals here at SLSU.I really dont know how to dance or project in anyway,I doesnt even know what dancing is all about.my journey as a cheerer began during the 4th year sign collection.one of them refused to sign my paper,ate claudette.she told me that i have to audition first then she will give her sign.i dont know what strange kind of feeling pushed me to audition.first day of training caused me extreme body pains and muscles development.after a month i started to loose weight then after couple of months of training im already prepared for the competition.and without too much expectation we won as champions eventhough most members of the squad are freshmen only 7 where seniors.
    And I realized that,we were able to learn anything with a proper discipline and with the use of our heart and mind.

The first night that I don't sleep at my boarding house in Lucban,it really blow my mind because even I always do this things at our province with my friends here in Lucban its different in every way.At first I thought that my roommates would take that as a joke that we would not go home that night,because in their province they don't do that thing they always stay home,because they are not that hardheaded,if they mother say so they'll just follow it.But that night we had a very happy and tiring experience,we stroll at patio rizal near the church and many streets in lucban,then we DOTA all night until the dawn,then we ate noodles at seven eleven.We got home at approximately 6:00 in the morning,I fell asleep then when I woke up it really blow my mind my head is electrified I can't explain the feeling.

  51. Experiences give us lessons in many ways. As far a I can remember, the most unforgettable experience b;lowing up my mind this time is when I am in high school. I remember that day, I am about to practice my declamation because I am chosen to participate in this particular contest when my teacher in a particular subject asked me if I can join another contest after the declamation I am going to participate. I told my teacher that I can't and that she can find another one because there are so many talented in our class that she can ask. After that conversation, I felt that she had been cold when I am talking to her, especially in her class hour, I can feel that time that she is mad at me. At first, I felt lonely because she is my favorite and it's sad that that was happening. But then, at the end of the day, I realized that it will going to turn out fine. That was before, and now that I am in college stage, she's still my favorite teacher because I learned a lot of things to her.

    "First Day will be Forever"

    It was a beautiful morning.It is exactly 8:00 in the morning when I wake up. My father gladly said that I need to eat a lot for this day. I'm so excited, because finally, I'm first year college student. All my things and stuff are prepared since last night. It is almost half hour of transportation from Lucena to the campus. I'm so excited when I first enter at the campus gate. The school was really big and I don't know where to go. I saw a guard and immediately asked him where I need to go. He smiled at me and point out the CAS building. I enter a room that is written on my registration form, I saw many freshmen students from other places here in Quezon and Laguna. I sat besides a girl, after a few minutes she asked me something and I answer it. Some of my classmates shares their story too, about their high school life. We all get comfortable to each other and become friends. when a teacher came, our conversation stop and after the class we become friends. Until now, we are friends and it will still last forever.

  54. "Experience is the best Teacher"
    The experience that blows into my mind was when I had a Long Distance Relationship (LDR) his name is James Lo,from United Kingdom. As time passed by, people thought that I might fall in love with this guy. We're miles apart, which is very hard for me and I know for him too. Only text,call and chat is our daily communication. Last December 2008 we officially became partner. I sleep at night time though I have classes the next day. Just to hear his voice, see him in chat and tell stories about what happened on my whole day in school. Then last June 2009 James Lo together with his family go to our house in the Philippines to personally meet me and my family too. I'm so happy because I'm with the guy whom I've shared my life through and trusted for a long time. I treasure the day that we're together cause I know someday he'll leave me and that happens. That time my heart break into pieces. Felling that I'm not worth it to be loved. I loved him the way he loved me but then he hurt my feelings. I realized that I regret everything.
    Having a long distance relationships are worth every sleepless night. But it'll only be worth it if couples believe that distance is barely a factor.
    I learned from my mistakes. But I'm happy with what we are now. I should thank him cause I finally meet the guy who will never leave and hurt me like what he did.

  55. Want to hear my life story? Well, here’s a piece of it.

    Life has never been good for me. (I’m not trying to be dramatic or anything), it’s just that life has brought me so much burden and pain to go through. Well, I guess life will really knock you down sometimes, and the choice is up to you to get up or stay in the dumps.
    I may look like your typical teenage girl, but think again, coz I’m not. At the age of 16, I have experienced a bunch of hard to deal with situations. For instance was the time when I loosed grief of the people I cared for the most. I was put in a position where every decision I made turned out to be my worst mistake.
    My boyfriend who was at the same time my classmate broke up with me when I was chosen to join a pageant in our campus. He made me feel like I was the worse girl in the world. Then suddenly, our classmate and my close friend Allan fell in love with me (secretly), and seeing me hurt and taken for granted, hurted him too. I fell for him, not because I wanted him to replace my ex’s place, but because he made me feel that I was worth loving and worth fighting for. He was the one who held me together when my ex boyfriend wanted me to fall apart. I took the risk of loving him, though I know I shouldn’t, coz Allan and my ex Hondel were good friends since grade school, they were buddies, but because of me, their friendship came to an end. My peers hated me for loving Allan too, I’ve considered them as my closest friends, and yet they hated me without trying to hear my side of the story. I felt so alone, I took the risk of loving another and I found myself loosing a hundred fold. What worsened my pain was not the fact that I lost my ex boyfriend and closest friends. It was when 3 days before my pageant, my beloved Lolo died. He was more like a father figure to me rather than my real father, so loosing him before my big day shattered my already struggling heart. I never felt so alone, at that point of my life, loosing my loved one’s one by one was the worst ever. Making a decision between friendship and love surely was a hard task that blew up my mind way back then.

  56. I do believe tat Experience is te best teacher.

    Here's my experience that gives me a lot of lesson.

    When I was in 2nd year high school I've meet a guy, we are always texting each other, he made me smile and until the day comes that I felt I'm inlove with him. He's courting me at that time and we become a classmate. We are in a relationship and it works until we are in fourth year high school. We are always arguing until the day come that we need break ups. It's really hard for me to move on I love him so much at that time but I don't want to fight for it because he leaves me. He leaves me just because he find another girl and I know that he's inlove with that girl. I just let him go even if it broke my heart. Since then, everyday I saw them very happy with each other and they are looking at me, I felt how lost I am. I don't know what to do he is my classmate and they are always the topic of our class. My classmate always talk to me about the new girlfriend of my ex and I feel that they are insulting me. After that there are many lesson that I had learned about my past. I learn to forgive. Soon I realized that it's better to see the person I love to be appy with someone else than lonely with me. Well I guess it really wasn't meant for me. It is one year now, and I am here still waiting for someone.

  57. In my 16 years of existence, I have a lot of experience, sometimes good but sometimes bad. All of us committed a mistake because of wrong decision that we done. The best experience that blows my mind is when my cousin’s died. He is not close of mine, as in were not mind each other until he died. After those happenings, I realized the importance of him. My mother told me that, when I am 4 years old he is the one who cares me. After I heard that I feel so guilty because, I treat him like my enemy. One more thing is that, before he died he told me that, I should always take care of myself because life is just a temporary that can get anytime by our almighty God, so that we need to spend it to the fullest. And the lesson I learned is that, we should love, care and give importance to the people around us, so that when the time that they gone, there were no some hurt feelings.

    I discovered the power of writing the day I walked going to the school
    canteen in my elementary days and everybody seems all
    staring at my back and laughing at me. Since that time, I was wearing
    my new cap, I figured that everybody just want to have a new cap just
    like mine so I just walk straight and confident. One of my classmate
    ask me if he can borrow my new cap, and I, being a kind hearted person
    that time, I lend my new cap to my classmate. When I was walking my
    way to my classroom, everybody is still staring and laughing at me and
    I feel so embarrased. Then a group of girls asked me, "Are you
    serious?", I wonder why they are asking me if I am serious. "for
    what?'' I asked, but they didn't answer my question instead they just walk
    away laughing. I don't know what those girls are talking about so I
    just continue walking until I reached my classroom. At the room,
    everybody is still looking at me and I asked them why, no one answered
    instead the room exploded with a mysterious laughter. That day for me
    was so weird, and I still didn't see anything wrong about me, until
    one of my friend whisper me the words "The paper at your back". I
    slowly dettached the paper attached on my back, and I was shocked with
    what is written there-

    'NAPAKA-POGI KO"

  59. One night before graduation day, I was walking with my friend when I got tired, she offered me to rest near the Catholic Church. I easily say yes because my feet were killing me. In the middle of our conversation, one guy sat beside her and when we look at him we saw a 7inches knife were pointing to her, I was shocked , the only thing I knew was I was scared, I don’t want to die, and I don’t know what to do. Should I run? But how about my friend? The men said give me your cell phones! And don’t try to shout because I have lots of people here that may kill you anytime! With no hesitations, I easily give my cell phones, then he run. My knees were shaking and my hands were cold as ice. I got home without knowing how I got there. Until now am afraid if knifes and when am passing by at the church I feel the scared I felt that evening

  60. " Recollection"

    High school girls were giggling in front of their school, all excited waiting for the jeepney to arrive, the jeepney that will fetch them and bring them were they would recollect. Then I realized I was one of those girls that would be having their recollection on the nearby town. I and my friends were so excited because we can bond one together. When we reach the place cell phones and cameras were not allowed inside the place, and some of the faculty staffs were confiscating the phones, because we want some souvenirs from that place we hide all our gadgets inside our shirts so they won’t be able to see them. It’s so happy that we were able to get away with it. When the night comes, after all our activities, me and my friends have separate rooms, so we decided to stay in one room which is not allowed because the rooms were assigned. In the room that we have stayed were for 2 persons only but we were 7 in that room. Then we heard that teacher’s were checking each rooms, so everytime that someone knocks on the door, all of them run in the CR as I was checking who it is, But everytime we opened the door they were only our co-students asking for pillow or food or just having a good time with blankets on them pretending to be ghosts. And once, we thought it was just one of our co-students as I opened the door I say “wala na kaming pagkain” It was our teacher who caught us.

    Every second of my life has a story to tell. But of course, there's one that really blow my mind. I'll tell you one. It happened in one of my college days. When one of B.A. Comm.-fourth year student saw his faked signature on my signature folder. I really don't what I am going to do that time. It really scared me.Maybe because he's one of the acomms' officer. But I'm thankful because until now he's not making any action. When we are accidentally meeting he's just keep staring at and I will just snob him.
    Yeah!!! I t's just one of my mind blowing story!.

  62. One night, after the JS Prom night, I went home together with my friends to have some Gig. Me and one of my friend, left at the school, because we have to wait for our mentors to get our things, and for me to allow having a gig together with my friends. And when we ride a tricycle, we saw a passenger riding behind the Tricycle driver, and a lady hugs the driver, we all thought that the lady at the back ride was the driver’s wife, but when the tricycle stop because we are in our destination, we didn’t see the lady at the back ride. Then we asked the driver where the lady behind him is? Guess what he answers. The driver said that he has no passenger except us, and it’s me and my friend. Then, we tell the driver that we saw a lady behind him. Then we all feel afraid. Then we saw the lady at the back ride, when the Tricycle leaves. The lady that we saw in the back ride of the tricycle was full of blood in her face, and she was staring at us. Then, I and my friend didn’t know what to do. After we recover, we have nothing to do but run as fast as we can. And tell to our friend what happen. All I know is... it’s just a worst Nightmare ever that happens into my life. Maybe god has a message for me. And thank that it’s only a dream.

I heard coming from my family,that i am a "buslog",when i was a child,but i thought that until now:] But for being a buslog,i can show,expressed my feelings and emotions and i cannot hide it.And when i grow up more unforgetable moments are there.I experienced how to work in my own assignment.Last year we are celebrated the variety show for the English subject at the Benito Pilar Social Hall.And my character in the show is a dancer,its really hard for me to dance,because its not my profession and i'm not an expert to how to dance correctly without copying my group step:] But i tried,because of my grades and i need a higher grades that time so i tried and this is the time to shine!

  65. I am a big fan of watching arnis in television, the moves are good, really interesting. I was onced interested with this kind of art, aldrin a friend of mine once taught me how, he was a good confidant of mine, with him I learned that arnis is just like how you play your life, if you play it with passion, it will sway with you, its not just an hour training its for a lifetime. It was exactly 3 o’clock when aldrin was killed, killed by an unexpected accident, a motor accident which probably the end of my training. I was shocked, it was a misery for me and for all of our friends, and then i realized that the truth is that Iwas not the closest to aldrin, closest to him is death. Not only to him but to all of us..mark my word!!!!

    This is it. High school life ends. I am about to step another ladder of higher learning. I am now in college. I feel nervous on the first day of college life. I don’t know what to do because I am really shy. But I said to myself I can do this ! I can be independent.
    So, while entering the campus, I am with my high school classmate. She also don’t know where to go. At first, I go with her and help her to find her room. Afterward, we found her room in Engineering building. And then, she also help me to find my room. After that we are about to separate and go to our appropriate rooms. She is in Engineering Building and I am in AS. During the first day, I was so glad to meet my new friends. We are all together every class hours and vacant time. I never knew that college life is not simple as high school life. Based on this experience I prove that experience is the best teacher. Try to fight your weaknesses.

  67. "Learned for our experience", a typical saying of every Filipinos who encountered major experience in their life. But, for me life is nonsense if we doesn't take the risk of experience.

    While I was reminiscing my experiences, I remembered one of my experience which blow my mind and it was when I was in high school. It became a habit for me to go on school Ten minutes before our time. Theres no differences between if I will come early or late in class because my teacher doesn't mind it at all. But, I've never known that my teacher checking the attendance secretly. On the next day, I came in class late and I am shock that the door was closed. My teacher don't want the late comers entered the room unless we brought our parents in the guidance office. So, I obey my teacher and I brought my mother in the guidance office to get an admission. At the end all what I did reflected on my grades. Starting that day I've realized that it was all my fault and I said to my self "it would not happened again". Through my mistakes and experience I've learned. It is true that "experience is the best teacher" among the rest.

  68. I just recently got sick and the worse thing is that it's not just an ordinary sickness. It really made me so worried.
    I was lively that Friday morning. It's just an ordinary day, I woke up early, took a bath singing loudly and went to school with a smile. After all the subject for that morning, I went home feeling just alright but before going to our practice, I felt so bad, "Oh, no!, I got fever!"- I said. I just kept on practicing until we finished it. It's already five thirty in the afternoon and I have to go again to school. I asked my classmates to fetch me so we'll go together to school. I decided to go to school though I'm not feeling well. But as we are fetching our other classmate, I felt like I'm going to collapse and fall on the floor so I went home again. I went to bed and relaxed but I can't because my temperature is getting higher. The next morning, it became worse so I went to my hometown. There I went to the hospital and I'm confined for a two days. My fever went off so I went back to school the next morning- that's Wednesday. I felt okay until I observed some rushes on my skin. I started to worry that time because it's spreading. Weird but I cried, I'm so frightened because I knew that's what patients with dengue experience and my cousin already died of it so it somehow made me think it's a serious disease. That very night, we went to MMG to have a blood test and sadly, the doctor confirmed I had dengue and I had to be confined to Lucena so that if my blood platelets count falls, I could have blood transfer. But I'm not so sure if I want to be confined because I'm thinking the final examination which will be next week but I Couldn't do anything except to agree to be confined in Lucena. As we get there, the doctor said it's alright so I felt better. I stayed there until I got well. I really thanked my mother for caring for me. This experience realy frightened me to death so now that I'm okay I will really be careful.

  69. In my life

    In my life I have experienced a lot of happiness, sacrifices, doubts, hurts and sorrow. I know that my life is not a fairy tale or even a movie. I haven't seen my father since birth he was not there when I grew up. Actually my father left me when I was 2 months old in the womb of my mother. I don't know what really happened that time but my mom always saying that I won't be mad at my father because. I don't know why but I'm so thankful that she is my mom I'm so glad that I have a mom like her. But that's not all because even if I don't have a father I have my friends and family that is always there for me. I admit sometimes I felt that I was alone but I know that if there's no one, God is always with me he never left me.

  70. My Unforgettable day !!

    It was a rainy morning in Lucban.I was going home to Lucena. I take a jeep to go home. I was very tired that's why I decided to take a nap. The conductor of the jeep just woke me up because I'm the only passenger in the jeep. I was very shy that time. I walk and walk until i reach the church. I feel that everyone is staring at me. I was holding a big bag that time where my dirty clothes are placed. I reach home exactly lunch time. My family eat together in my grandmother's restaurant. It was very happy having them for lunch. After the lunch, my mother and father went to a nuptial and my brothers and sister are not home. I'm alone in our house that's why i went to SM. It was raining that time but i dont bring my umbrella. I was in SM and I dont have money that time. Im just looking on some items but I'm not going to buy. I feel bored and tired so i went home. It was 6pm when I reach home but i'm still alone. All i can do is to eat and to watch TV while they are gone. It's the first time that i felt alone that's why I cant forget that day.

    At my age i had already faces many problems and sufferings. I handle it carefully for i don't want to make it bigger. Sometimes i feel hopeless that i wouldn't be able to solve it, but i was wrong. Through the help of my parents, brothers and sisters also my friends. I find it easy to resolved. But when i taught it's over i was shocked that it wasn't because it was just the start of the biggest problem in my life. When i was in high school i experienced some kind of a family problem that affects our living, honestly this was the time that i don't really don't know what to do. It really affects our family even our participation in school. Now it was time that starts to heal our heart that before was full of anger. I could easily say that if we are together with our family we can solved any problem that comes our way. Thus this also gives me lessons that guides me now to my following days here on earth. I can also say that being a child of Mr. and Mrs. Macawili is the biggest cahellenge and experience for me.

  72. I can consider my experience during our Graduation day, after my 4 years in secondary level, as one of the most treasured moments of my life. I remember what our principal stated on her inspirational message in our yearbook, “Graduation is not an end rather a beginning”. Tensions, emotions, excitement mixed up on my heart as I started marching from field to the venue where the Graduation is going to witness by our families. Emotions that brought out by the loneliness because I know that from that day onwards I won’t see my classmates and friends and of course my Dear Teachers. Excitement because at last, I finish the 4 years of hardships and sufferings and I am about to enter a new life. That Graduation day left a big bunch of happiness and fulfillment for all throughout of my life. Why???For a reason that, finally I will receive the medal of honor that has been the output and end product of the raw material I keep on processing, the so called ”hard work”. Tears seem to fall on my face as my name was called to come on stage. My mother continues putting the medals on my neck as my adviser announces the awards I received. “Michelle De Luna, Gov.Raffy Nantes Awardee, Mayor Raul Umali Awardee, Aceba Systems and Technology Institute Awardee, 9th placer NCAE Best in English and 2nd Honorable Mention./ My mother kissed me and I was so shocked. What a nice experience that I wish it could happen again. This is only a matter of sharing and I don’t want you to think that I am a haughty.

  74. Experience? hmm … I think I have one of the most memorable experience. An experience that is unforgettable for me. It is when I joined the camp where I developed myself. Not just emotionally, mentally, socially but most especially spiritually. It is the time when I joined the Youth For Christ (YFC) organization. The second family I have. Here where I enhanced my beliefs; here were I continue what I have started in Catholic Union, and here where I gave love and importance my family and love ones the most. Joining in this organization turned my life into a better “Emagiel”. I spent my vacations here during camps. I always served because I am a certified God's servant! And I always will, without hesitation. God have done; is doing; and will do everything just for us. If you are curious about this – you better join the God’s organization (YFC). You will develop the real you . As what we all always said, “God is Good all the Time!”

    One day, I was walkins the bridge to go to the practice and as I look down I saw Julia with her classmates, using marijuana and kissing each other. I'm so disappointed 'cause I trust her that she is unlike her classmates. Till now, no one knew that I've saw them and I am keeping away from her 'cause I know that she is not hte Julia that I've been with.

    What blows in my mind? We’ll at this moment I have a lot of this to do and I don’t know how and where to start. Since I’m here posting a comment let me tell a short about this day. It’s Sunday, and every Sunday me and my friends are visiting to church.
    My favorite to do every Sunday is to watch ASAP XV. I really enjoy watching it. Aside from that there’s no more. Actually final exam is coming that’s why everyone going busy likes me. But it’s OK we all know that we are doing this for our own good. Tonight is the only my time to do this, I don’t know why but I think I can make it. Ow! Don’t know what to think, so I think that’s it.

    "Experience is the best teacher?" I can really say it is!

    This happen when I was in 3rd yr high school. I was so addicted of drinking and smoking so much...that I don't realize I was so stubborn to my parents and don't care to my studies, even if i failed.

    Every night I was drinking and having fun with all my friends and "BARKADA"...even if my mother is worried and waiting for me to go home...She always ask me why I always come home late? i just answer her "tumambay lng po". She always warning me that my friends is just bad influence to me, but I ignore it.

    Until one night...Ive got so drunk that I couldn't carry my self out. I vomit many times and still vomiting until I got home...I don't no what I'm doing all that time. My mother was so angry and SHOCKED! because she didn't know that I'm drinking...YES! she didn't know it all the time, she only thought that I was just "nakatambay".

    After that she take my cellphone and I've been grounded...She scolded me many times!. I been so angry to her that time, we didn't talk...I always blame her for what she have done to me. And sometimes when I heard her cry because of me?...I just ignore it.

    Its almost 8 months after what happen and nothings change. I still angry to her...even if sometimes she ask me like "kumain ka na anak may pagkain na" but I just "Ayoko! kakain ako kapag gusto ko".

    Until one time theirs been a summer camp at our church...I joined!

    During that camp may things i have realize and feel sorry for what I've done?...I feel so very bad! like a monster i think. Why did I blame my mother who's only want is good for me and I don't realized it? its me whose wrong not her!...I'm so stupid!. I cried and cried...

    And when I got home from camp...I hug her,cried and say sorry many times. My mother cried and said "ayos lng yun anak naiintindihan kita dahil mahal kita", and I reply "salamat po, sorry po tlga".

    After that I feel so happy and so free from anger and hate. Thanks God! I have a mother like her. I realized that "parents only doing what's good for us, that they will not harmed us because they loved us and know us more than our friends, even though sometimes we don't understand them...just learn to trust them and things will gonna be alright!"

    And that's my experience that i treasured always because it teaches me a lot! and thank God!

  78. EXPERIENCE IS THE BEST TEACHER! super true. i agree. every thing that happens teaches us something.


    just like this one damn i missed this. It was our retreat in betania retreat house in tagaytay.Last year. So fun and memorable to each and every one who experience that thing. I've experienced a lot of things like to be far from my family plus to be with my friends all day all night it's just so fun. And i also experienced the peacefulness of the place, the great foods. And i've experienced how to be a simple person in 4 days. No cellphones, i-pod or music thing, no net, and no gadgets at all. Retreat is not an educational trip we are not looking for fun but it is looking forward for a new you, for a BETTER one. And i can say that after all there's a big change in me.
    1st day it's like the usual day. not missing someone! full of activity so a very tiring one,
    2nd day aww boredam starts to strike. Then starting to miss some one.
    3rd day so awkward it's really killing me! uhhhh i want to go home that time. it's no fun at all. then that night it's so sad we read the letters that touches our hearts and On the 4th day yeah i just realize it's not the way i see things before i've changed not that big but it's BETTER. those things that happened there are my memories that is worth treasuring in my heart.

  79. Experience is the best teacher. Through all our experience,we learned,realized and understand. Thee are times that I feel all alone. No one understand me at all even my parents. I tried to be a good daughter to them. But still,my mistakes are being mentioned . I know, I'm not a perfect daughter because there's no perfect in this word. Whenever they confront me,I just sit on the side and thinking that there's no other people talking to me. After this,I will go out. Our house is near our church so I rushed to there. This is a perfect place where I can pour all my worries. I will pray and suddenly tears fall down an admit to God all of my sins to him especially to my parents. I realized that I am truly wrong to what I have done.

  80. “I haven’t made it. But at least I’ve tried.”
    This is the only motivation I always think of, whenever I had to face the sucking reality of losing. Crying baby… yes I am. I can live with that, no need to suppress my shallow eyes no more. Back to my high school days, I am always a contender in different speaking contest. Modesty aside my friends, but until now I am not sure why they always choose me to represent them. Maybe they just kinda saw the spirit on me that's why they believe that I can do it. But there are times that too many expectations can kill the confidence of a young student like me. I was third year then, when I take a piece of an action in an Oration Contest conducted by the Regional Rotary Club. Confused and flattered at the same time, I accept that huge responsibility and strives hard so that if I can’t make it to the championship, at least I could give them a piece of show to watch for. Unfortunately, amateur sickness engrossed me the moment I enter that stage. Guess what? Yes. I had forgotten the denouement of my recital and uttered next lines no more. I saw my trainer’s face slightly disappointed and here we go, crying my hearts out once again. Shame isn’t it? However, after that incident, I had realized few important things. “Fight. And if you fall down, don’t be afraid to get up once again. Because losing isn’t everything, it’s just a part of our continuous struggle.”

  81. Our experiences teaches us a lesson.I have lived such a life experience in my last high school
    year.I was going to become independent on my own feet as some would say. Time has taught me how to take fast decisions. Some of them were bad decisions,some were good. It was a very difficult period for me,as I was forced to fight against time,stress,hidden emotions and most important,I had to choose the road to follow for my career.

    There were times I felt I would quit.All these times I was teaching a great lesson,maturity!I realized I wasn’t a kid anymore and that my own destiny can be influenced by a simple decision. This experience made me learn what truly means making sacrifices for achieving your goals. But the most important thing is the positive lesson it taught me,that is,never gives up fighting, no matter what happens because there is a hope for everything in life, and loosing it doesn’t bring you close to your goals. I have lost some of my friends for being able to reach on top, and this thing taught me what true friendship really meant and that some people we see as friends can turn out to be our worst enemies.

  82. In my 16 years of existence I can say that everything that I experienced taught me some things that I know I'll always remember. It is when I met my friends and get to know them deeply. High school life is the best though there are times of hardships but I survived with that because I'm with my friends. We treated each other like siblings and when I'm with them I didn't felt any dull moments. We taught each other many things like comforting someone when she's heartbroken or if she have problems. We appreciated everything that all of us are doing to each other. Although there are times when we're quarreling we take actions on that so it will not get big. The experience I have with them is precious to me because I learned that I can't live alone and that life is more beautiful if we have more companion. It also teach me in some way that I learned to get along with others and learned to trust them. And because I already experienced it also helped me to become a better person to everyone.

    I have a lot of friends and in our group we are 17,five boys and fifteen girls.Our likes have similarity,like watching horror movies,reading books about love,eating foods and most of all,we like to take so much pictures.But as time goes by,our differences occur and most of the time we are arguing in such simple things.Rheynard is always there to fix the arguments so that,there will be no more fights between of us.I am proud to have some friends like him.And as we are separating our ways because we need to take our own like courses.They never been erased here in my heart.They will always be my friends who I know form the start.The friends that I've been sharing my life for five years of my life.

  84. It is really relaxing and enjoyable to reminisce those wonderful things happened in our lives.They will serve as a treasure in our minds. One of the unforgettable memory I have is a summer vacation adventure together with my whole family. While we are traveling from Lucena to Mulanay, we are all enjoyed by the beautiful scenery that we saw. in the trip. then the most exciting part is when we had a hill hiking just to visit my other relatives living on the hills there. It is very enjoyable to have a hiking there. and we took a lots of pictures. the atmosphere and the fresh air there are so relaxing and refreshing. Then finally we already met our relatives there and we are all happy to see each other again.

"“This is my wish for you: Comfort on difficult days, smiles when sadness intrudes, rainbows to follow the clouds, laughter to kiss your lips, sunsets to warm your heart, hugs when spirits sag, beauty for your eyes to see, friendships to brighten your being, faith so that you can believe, confidence for when you doubt, courage to know yourself, patience to accept the truth, Love to complete your life.”


    Treasuring the times with your love ones is very important. Just like My own Experience. The most unforgettable moment in my life is the time where my Father had been go back here in the Philippines. Wherein We spend a lot of times to him We went to the different places here in the Philippines. I really missed that moment. I know in my self that it will not be able to repeat it because He is already died.

  86. Is always a nice thing to share some experience you've encountered in life cause somehow it makes you feel better ..
    and here's one of my experience that i would always love to share ..

    Before I'm that very happy go lucky person who prefer to be neutral on everything. as in everything ! its like, i don't care about people, i don't care about things, for me its my life and i myself is the only one who will make my life .. im like this until i knew Him .. yes .. HIM :)
    since then things aren't that usual anymore. I'm not the old Jamie anymore .. i become busier with my life and lessen my presence in peer gatherings. My family always argue with me because i always come home late. But ... because we are always having that spiritual activity and some vigils to different places.
    Whenever i remember the old Jamie who's not yet engaged with this kind of organization i laugh at myself and at the same time asks .. "what would likely to happen if im not here.what if i didn't knew Him?? well that's a very silly thing ..

    I WOULD NEVER FORGET THE DAY THAT I BECOME A PART OF THE "PARISH YOUTH COMMITTEE". A spiritual organization which happened to divert my life from a trash into a better one .. and now everything seems to be very light and the very lesson that this org had taught me is that ..
    "always look on the brighter side of everything" ..

    and i never stop being thankful for i had given the privilege to know him well and to be more closer to HIM !And so to God i owe you the changes that you've made in me :)

Everyone had their own experiences that sometimes they want to come back.In my experience,the moment that always come to my mind is my friend.Because they are always there to help me in times of problems and when i always need their help.I am always happy whenever i always with us.They are always share our secrets and that is the one that i want to come back.I could really miss each other but i know that we need to be separated because i know that they have own business that we need to handle and that is education.I know that this semestral break,they see each other again.This is the moment that i have waited because they will have bonding again and share the things that happen in our college life.
