Lead and Follow (#meandsociety)

This is the society where I belong since I started my High school life in La Salle Academy. I learned to be independent, responsible, optimistic, open up, and many more self improvement. This is when I started leading my batch mates as I run as a HOUSE REPRESENTATIVE OF JAI but unfortunately I didn’t win so that’s it. But the experience is really great having a time of knowing others is already a pleasure for me. I tried to lead and I guess it’s not my time yet but I can say that it’s really nice having new friends with the same goal as I am and that is to serve the student body no matter what.

My Kind of Love (#mykindoflove)

This kind of love is what I’m looking for, a love that is unconditional. They say girls should set a certain standards in picking someone they want to be attached with. They say find someone worth it. For me, love is not romantic all the time there are so many kinds of love that a single person would experience. I’m so blessed that I’m able to express it to the people around me. To be honest, in this bible verse no one could immediately possess such attitudes that define what is love but even a single trait or two- whoever the person I might meet someday had this kind of love in his family,friends, to me, and of course to God. Good looks and other attributes are just a BONUS for me.

All About Relationships

Love is one of the most profound emotions known to human beings. There are many kinds of love, but most people seek its expression in a romantic relationship with a compatible partner. For some, romantic relationships are the most meaningful element in their lives, providing a source of deep fulfillment. The ability to have a healthy, loving relationship is not innate. A great deal of evidence suggests that the ability to form a stable relationship begins in infancy, in a child's earliest experiences with a caregiver who reliably meets the infant's needs for food, care, protection, stimulation, and social contact. Those relationships are not destiny, but they appear to establish patterns of relating to others. Failed relationships happen for many reasons, and the failure of a relationship is often a source of great psychological anguish. Most of us have to work consciously to master the skills necessary to make them flourish.

“The Emotion Challenge” (#theemotionchallenge)

In the video entitled IDENTITY I can say that it is really a masterpiece of what truly people experience in the real world. We all wear masks just to fit in but the question is we really have to? I know its a bit hard expressing yourself to others just for you not to be judged easily. While watching the short film I really felt the emotion that’s in the film its like even there are no subs present I can still comprehend what the story looks like. Which is really present in the film as well as what I felt when I watched the film.

In relation to our lesson remember Mr. Goleman’s Emotional Intelligence?

Goleman identified the five 'domains' of EQ as:

Knowing your emotions.

Managing your own emotions.

Motivating yourself.

Recognizing and understanding other people's emotions.

Managing relationships.

“This Works For Me!” (#thisworks4me)

Here, the pictures illustrates on how I overcome stress. By doing these I can forget the things that causes my stress. These are also my ways of quality time with myself and how these activities gives me energy to not easily give up even how pressured and stressed I am. Doing the things I love makes me forget the things that makes me whine.

The brain is responsible for all of this for me to be able to respond and helps me determine on what are the things that can make me happy and make the most out of it.

"When obstacles in life are dragging you down, think why you start."

        Dear Marian; 

                    Continue dreaming high, you on the half way of your ladder right now. Use your problems to be a weapon in achieving your goal. Don't think on how people judge you but think of why you believe in yourself. Never put a mask in achieving your goal. Its better to have a monster face than having a good one but fake. Be yourself always. Life is a dance, "Dance like nobody's watching!"

Stay who you are and keep smiling for God loves you take care always.

Expectation Letter #expectationfeels

      HOW TO BE ME?

Every move I make

Different eyes can see

In everything I do

Everybody knows

Expectations, standards

How to cope up?

But it challenges me

To keep up

As I grow, these things are inevitable

It is for me to know what I’m capable

That makes me turn tables

Which I don’t know I was able

But sometimes it makes me wonder

Why successful people keeps to hold on

Standards and expectations 

Which keeps their heads on

I feel happy and nervous 

For people think I’m genius 

But honestly I’m serious

I don’t wanna be famous

Keeping my feet on the ground

In every achievement I had

Which is best to be said

And be given to God

Standards and expectations 

Gives me a realization 

Which leads to a question

How to be me? end of conversation

Smart Goals Worksheet

Goal Statement

     All of us has different goals in life that we need to achieve and we really chase just to have it. But for me setting first your priorities is one way of making your goals much achievable, specific,and realistic. In my case I wanna be a Pastry Chef and each time I dream of becoming one it gives me motivation to work hard because I feel like years pass nowadays is as fast as a blink of an eye so I always set on my mind that I can become a Pastry Chef someday.

What Do You Need To Reach Your Goal?

      To be honest I really need the financial support that I can get from my parents for I can’t do this things immediately specially now that I’m still a student. But I can guarantee to them that I will really work hard to become a Pastry Chef. So that I can now repay the hard work of my parents if I already had my work. Professional training and mentors that are capable of sharing their expertise to me. Above all God’s guidance and moral support coming from those people I love.

Where Are You Right Now in Achieving Your Goal?

     For now I’m starting to familiarize the things a baker or a chef should and should not do when he/she is in the kitchen. Researching about the different types of baked goods and how to recreate them. But when it comes to actual demonstration I had none for I lack the resources that are needed to bake sweets such as cake,cupcakes, etc.

Things That Are Stopping You From Achieving Your Goals: 

    Financial support

    Lack of resources

    Time (for I had a busy schedule since I’m still studying)

Solutions To Your Obstacles

     In the financial aspect maybe I can save some from my allowance to buy some of the things that I need.

    Buying those things that I need that has lesser price and I can still afford even I’m still studying.

     Weekends can be the days that I can say that is my only free time so maybe I’ll allot it as my practice days and a key also for my family to bond from those busy schedule.

Personal Development & Career Goals

Job/Career Goal

       This goal is focused on the next  24 months.

 My goal is to become a pastry chef someday. Its because I love to eat and I want to experiment different kinds of sweets. For me to be able to achieve this one I should allot more effort and do some professional training for me to be able to bake my own creation of sweet goods.

Education/Training Goal

For me to be able to become a Pastry Chef I need to study hard and do good on my field. The steps to be able to achieve my goal is that I must know the things I want to do for me to be able to balance everything and having mistakes are prevented. In other words first things first.

Personal Health/Wellness Goal

For me to be able to achieve my goals in my career and academic aspects, I should stay physically fit and healthy. Exercise and proper diet is the key to a healthy lifestyle. For me having enough rest and less exposure to stress is essential for me to do the tasks given to me. Not just being physically healthy but mentally and emotionally healthy too.

I pick this flower mandala for I can compare myself to it. It’s like I’m just a flower that will bloom in no time. When the right time comes I’m this colorful when I bloom. I’m this colorful for I expresses myself on a way that others can relate, for I may look simple in the outside but as you know me or get to know me I’m this colorful mandala that somehow can inspire and stays by your side whatever happens.
