Why Should we, students, pursue Education?


Why Should we, students, pursue Education?

 

by:          12, Vince Ernesto A. Delos Santos, 7-Marian
                Students like me nowadays are already sick of studying. Some saying they already had enough of school that they just want to enjoy their teenage lives. Some just taking a pass to attend the everyday important days of lives. Some even dropping out of school to show their protest against education. Now I tell you, you should pursue to finish and to graduate from school. To tell you the truth, that shouldn't be your primary goal, to graduate and to finish Elementary and High school are just milestones for your true objective. Your true objective should be to be able to graduate and finish from college specializing in a certain course, a course that would be able to sustain your needs and also the needs of others and that would able to build a  greater nation of the Philippines. Why do you even need to study? Here are some reasons why.

                First of all, in the future, I know we will all have families, people that would depend on us. How will be able to attend to their needs if even we haven't been able to finish our schooling days? How will you be able to make these people happy and safe under your care? How will you tell them that they should be successful in life if even you yourself haven't been successful? That is why we should be able to finish education, it is because we will be the ones that will soon be replacing our parents and we will now be taking on their responsibilities.

                Second, we will also be the leaders of our country. The best of the people should be the leaders of this country. They will be the one who will drive our country to prosperity. Who would ever want someone who will drive their own economy down? We would all want someone who will make our country prosper and be the best of the best when the time comes.
 
                Third, Without education, you will have a hard time to prosper. People who didn't study and wasn't able to finish their days with the school aren't one of the most successful people of their days. Many people today are part of the Lower Class of the Philippine Economy because for their lack of education. But even so, let them be an inspiration for us to finish our education, because without then today, our economy will drop and the physical labor force of the Philippines will be depleted and gone

                Now that you have heard some of the reasons why you should study and finish your education to the highest level. Would you now want to be someone who is successful, someone that your family would be proud of, someone that your nation will be proud of or would you still want to be someone not recognized by the country and the ones that are unsuccessful?

Why people should know their history

Why people should know their history.

 I observed that most people these days are not concerned or eager to learn about history. Most people are unaware of why we have cars, airplanes, peace throughout most of the world and how some of our common household items like salt were a fortune in the old times. Splendid ideas and a lot of things about us are slowly being forgotten by the people which is why people have to know their history to take care and preserve our history in all parts of the world.
History may be a little foggy or sometimes frustrating to learn, but focusing on one specific topic like Julius Caesar’s conquests of Gaul, it makes history more fun and easier to learn. We may have our gadgets now, but books and documents which are handwritten are still valuable and important because people these days use paraphrasing, some details may have been left out and these could be used to trace important happenings or even solve problems in the older times. When people start with one topic, then move to another they may get the feeling of excitement as to what will happen next. Most say history is nothing but old scrolls and papers, but history is a record of who we humans are. It is the story of our world and how it was before our generation. We all know that the world we know today was not built by a single man in a span of a few days. Our world is a world created by thousands or even millions of different people, because in wars each soldier played a part to shape the world we know of today. Their names may have been forgotten but they have already been put into our history, we have all learned about many inventors, scientists and other people such as the Wright Brothers, Albert Einstein and others, but these people have their own stories and their inventions have had their inspirations and we don’t know who or what may have really inspired them to invent and discover things. History isn’t always boring, it tells us who we were and how our world came to be.
People should start learning about history because these are thing that should not be forgotten, especially by us children who want to be successful when we grow up. History is something that we should not forget and just study when needed in school, we should voluntarily study it as we are the ones who will improve history’s greatest inventions. History will inspire people to achieve more and go higher.

When I was just 8 years old. I like to play basketball, I thought it was a rough sport to play. However, when I tried playing this sport, I realized that I am good at it.

Why Should People Use Facebook?

“Why Should People Use Facebook?”

Approximately, 400 million people use Facebook nowadays. Social networking, particularly Facebook, is now widely used as a pastime, hobby, or as recreation. Some people think that using Facebook isn’t really advantageous and helpful. But to my way of thinking, there are actually several benefits in being a Facebook user.

Self-confidence. People can gain social confidence from communicating with other people online, which gives them more safety in facing new encounters and situations. For instance, meeting new friends, first day of school, joining organizations or clubs, and many more. Another convenience of using Facebook, is that it helps a person interact with his/her family, relatives, and friends more often. Facebook connects people with their families. Relatives who are far from each other can still keep in touch through video calls. For some, they browse on their old friends and recall on their memories together through chatting. Facebook also allows you to post anything on you wall. You can tell your friends how you feel, and they too are also free to respond on this through commenting. By means of posting, you can also know the latest news of your other friends, latest news in your place, as well as news around the world. One more advantage is that it helps people become well-known with recently developed technologies, furthermore, it helps people to proliferate their media literacy by being exposed to varying kinds of virtual media which are shared by their friends.

As I see it, social networking will be a greater benefit in our lives. Everyone will be interacting and be more confident of themselves. The world will soon be connected and will help destroy the boundaries of humanity.

Why do people love to eat chocolates?

Why do people love to eat chocolates?

Love is in the air. I can already feel the sweet breeze of the love month suggesting that it iss almost February. There’s only one thing that will come up in most minds of people today haring the word february. And that is Valentines day. The month exclusive for love. When there is love, there is also a lot of gifts given as a present for someone special. Gifts are given as appreciation of love and as an act of love. The most common gift given on this special day aside from flowers, is chocolates.
Have you ever wondered why people love chocolates? February is the month for love yet people eat chocolates all year round. It seems like chocolates are part of their diet already. There are people who can’t end their day without chocolates. There must be something in it that make people crave for it.
Chocolates are made of cocoa. There are different flavors of chocolates depending on the ingredients added to it. There are chocolates with nuts, some with raisins, other with fruits, few with cookies, and many others which are truly delicious. The sweet and bittery taste of chocolates make people so indulge with it. But what is the real score why do people love eating it so much.
Chocolates have chemicals that signal the body to release energy hormones. This chemicals make our body energetic and very active. Aside from the chemicals which I can say are beneficial, chocolates are sweet. They are really sweet, though some flavors are bitter like that of dark chocolates.It’s sweet taste can change the mood ofa person. Once eaten by a stressed person, the taste of this food can make someone’s mood get better. The sweet taste spreads all over the body of that person, making him feel very relaxed. Chocolates can also suggest a status of a person. Not all can buy chocolates because of the delicious brand are quite expensive. Some who can’t buy it everytime they want it and crave for it afre those who are really indlging themselves eating it once given the chance.
Chocolates are sweet, nutritious in moderation and relaxing. Eating one can change a bad day to a memorable one.

Why We Should Eat Vegetables

Why We Should Eat Vegetables

When I was younger, I always disliked eating vegetables because it gives me a bitter taste that I always want to vomit. But, my parents always prepare a bunch of vegetables ,which we really need to eat. Since they always prepare vegetables I tried convincing myself to always eat vegetables. So I gave it a try.

So first, if you really don't like eating vegetables, you have to deal with it. So I advice you to eat vegetables now because it is important to our health. It helps us by staying healthy, it also makes us smarter, and it helps our body to stay strong and it lessens percents of diseases.

Secondly, people can see that we are eating vegetables because they can usually tell by observing us like we are being stronger, fit. and it takes a lot of time before we can catch sickness. It is noticeable that if we eat vegetables our brain will be improved and our learning abilities will increase.

Eating vegetables is very important. If you dislike it very much, practice eating it, after some time you'll get the hang of it. Like me, at first I don't like it, but when I needed to eat a lot of it, I practiced myself.

Why People Should Avoid Junk Foods

I have seen a lot of people consume many kinds of junk foods. And that they are unaware whatever is going to happen to them when they consume too much of it. What people really must know is that junk foods may taste good and also may be a little too healthy for you but almost half of it contains considerable amount of fats, cholesterol, and carbohydrates.

Junk foods might have advantages and disadvantages as we eat them. First of all, junk foods are basically based on sweet treats like ice cream, cakes, doughnuts and cookies. But other kinds of junk food that are not sweet are chips, french fries and hamburgers. Pizza might also be considered as a junk food but others say that pizza is healthy because it is made from bread dough. And we all know that bread is healthy. Eating cookies might give you a little energy but if you consume too much, you will gain weight. Usually, what makes these junk foods taste sweet is sugar. Sugar is healthy for only if you consume less of it.

People should not really consume too much junk foods, especially when they are not performing any physical activities since you won't be burning the calories that you are taking in to your body. Too much junk foods can give you health problems in the future.

Advantages of eating nutritious foods by Alain Vincent E. Mindaña

Advantages of eating nutritious foods

Centuries ago people like Romans used fruits and vegetables to feed their armies during war to make them stronger. People this century especially the nutritionists don’t know the true history of food. All we know is food is our main basis of life for us humans. Food is a blessing given to us by God.

People nowadays particularly the kids refuse to eat nutritious food. Why? Because they think that anything that is green tastes bad. Psychologically speaking the human mind declines nutritious food that is good for the body but little that they know when the human mind has only a limited capability of thinking this is the time that they eat fruits and vegetables to increase the capacity of their brain to gather information or in other words they only eat in a specific time if they want to excel and when they already excelled that is the time where they will stop eating nutritious food. Are there ways to feed the kids nutritious foods? Yes! There are several ways to feed your toddler healthy and nutritious foods.

 First, you must start with the basics try inventing or mixing basic fruits in vegetables like mixing apple and lettuce in order to give the child a little bit of sweetness.

Second, create up a new or cool name for veggies like couch potato or golden carrot to make the kids think that this is a unique veggie.

Third, teaching your kids the nutritional facts about that specific fruit and vegetable helps your kids to be more conscious next time on what are the benefits of that food that he/she is eating.

Lastly, the main goal of this exercise is to maintain the balance between the foods that your child is eating by doing this your child can be healthy and if possible ill-free.

These steps can help your child build stronger bone and anti-body against sickness. These steps have several advantages in your child making him/her more robust. If you want your children to have a jubilant life then start changing his/her way of eating. Always remember we get to live as long as we like if we have good eating habits.

I remember Aquatico Beach Resort fairly well. It is located in Batangas.

I felt excited because it was my first time to be there and I also felt impatient because it took us so long to get there, but it’s worth it.

I saw the beautiful scenery of the resort. I felt the pure white sand in my hands and also felt the soothing cold water in the infinity swimming pool. I smelled the fresh, breezy air that crossed through my face and I have sampled the delectable dishes like the mouth-watery special pancit canton, caldereta and other seafoods found in the buffet restaurant.

For me, I think the beach if not properly maintained fifty years from now would look like any ordinary beach with dirty sands with some non-biodegradeable trash like bottles and tin cans and styropores. The sand would be rough and would be turning brown or black. Then, the saltwater would become green to brown instead of blue. I hope it does not turn out that way so that I can come back to enjoy the beach again.

My first time but not the last in NOVALI

Language Composition

Last August was my fieldtrip. It was held at Novali. At first, I’m a bit anxious of this trip. There’s a feeling of excitement and at the same time uncontentment because we will just have one place to go, Novali. I’ m really fond of fieldtrip which has more than two itineraries. It means more adventure for me and of course the money I paid for it is used wisely. I never heard of comments from my classmates about the place we will visit because nobody got into that place yet. It just means it will be our “first time”.
Upon arrival on the place, the only thing i could say is “WOW!”. All the time during the ride, I thought of ugly, nasty things about the place. In short, I misjudge the place. Novali is such a paradise. I am so amazed with what I saw. They have a very beautiful garden full of flowers and wondeful plants. There are colorful fishes in he pond, butterflies flying all over the place. There is an extravagant building at the heart of the place. There are eco-friendly houses powered by solar panels on top of the house.
It is true that we only have one place to visist on our fieldtrip but it doesn’t mean that the trip will be so boring because there are a lot of adventures Novali has to offer to everybody. We explored the place using a boat. Get connected with the fishes, fed them with our hands. We hiked just to be marveled with a waterfalls.Enjoy the water of the falls and experienced what nature has to offer. We also entered a forest, discover it’s hidden treasure of wild creatures. Amazing plants and extraordinary birds surprised me on that trip. It is such a tiring trip yet It made me realized one thing, I just have to open my eyes to see the beauty of something. If one doesn’t know how to appreciate things then you will not discover the beauty of something.
Now my mind is wandering, what might Novali look like after 50 years. A place that amazed me so much could be a paradise or a hell in the next 50 years but as I can see it, Novali is a place that will be even amazing as time goes by. By the objective of the place in using eco-friendly things, and being very nature friendly, this place would really prosper. I can see that the graden they have there will fruit more flowers and amazing plants. Butterflies will increase in numbers and other kinds of insects might come too. Migratory might also discover Novali. They might also have 5 more ponds fifty years from now. These ponds will inhabit fascinating fishes of different colors and sizes. These ponds will also host other creatures wo loves water. They might have 2 or more buildings to accomodate the people who will discover their place in time. Their eco-friendly houses will flourished and they might also have an eco-friendly car run by solar energy. The grandeust waterfalls might be preserved and remain the same. It might havea clearer waterin time and it might also have more fishes and other sea creatures which are not harmful to man.
