We're Lost

Last tuesday, we played basketball against the Dark Green Mustangs and we lost. This afternoon, we lost again, this time against the Black Ravens. We will play again on Monday against the Light Green Gators. I just hope it will not be the same as the last two games that we had and somehow, we could give them a good fight in that game.

Over-population In The Philippines (Cause and Effect)

The Philippines is already experiencing over-population. Our country is one of the most over-populated country. It is the 12th most over-populated country in the whole world. Many of the people here in the Philippines, especially teenagers, are engaged in prostitution and pre-marital sex, which is two of the most common causes of over-population.

Over-population is existing and increasing because also of poverty. Many of the female teenagers nowadays tend to sell "themselves" just for money, so that they will be able to have something for their expenses, and in some cases, for their school fees and/or their families. In fact, because of these things Philippines is also starting to suffer from some diseases, such as, AIDS, STD, HIV, and also malnutrition - only common to some parts or provinces of the Philippines.

Our Time Is Up (Movie Review)

The movie is all about a psychiatrist who sticks to his everyday routine. He is a very organized person that he always see to it that his "things" are all in place and organized.

In the movie, it is shown how he consults different kinds of people who has different personalities and has different traumas and problems in life. At first, he talked to them one by one and let each and every one of them share what are their problems, and what they are afraid of. On the second consultation that the psychiatrist conducted, he actually let the people face their fears. He did some activities that would help his patients overcome their traumas, and some treatment (conversation) and sharing of his personal insights and suggestions.

The movie is somehow comedy. It is funny because of the way the psychiatrist treated his patients, and how each and everyone of them reacted. At the end, all his patients thanked him for his effort and patience that he dedicated for them. Because also of his patients, he learned and realized that he has already no "room" for himself. He changed and did things the other way around. He did things on what he is comfortable with, not anymore following his everyday routine.

A Blog

Blog - the most common task we are assigned to do in our ENGLONE and BUSCOMP classes. To be honest, I am not fond of writing, nor blogging. I do not enjoy it and most of the time, I'm having a hard time thinking of what I will write in my paragraphs. Also, when writing, I tend to get mental block and ending up in a very short paragraphs. I tend to forget some things or informations that may help me in what I am writing. Just like now, I don't know what to say anymore. Haha. Anyway, writing compositions everyday in class and uploading blogs in the internet weekly helped me be more interactive in terms of writing. I just realized that I am now, somehow, beginning to like writing in some ways. Maybe because, eventhough I'm not that good in writing, I am able to share some things about me and I am able to express myself.

Nonsense

Why settle for any old chip when you've got real tortilla chips - Jack n Jill Tostillas Nacho Cheese? Monster size chips that give a distinct roar of a crunch and a mouth-tickling cheese flavor that will leave your funny bones wanting for more. Definitely a snack worth scampering for. So don't just stand there with your tongue lolling from side to side. Grab a fist full of chips and get cracking!

Nothing much important about this entry. I just wanted to promote and share what is written on the pack of what I am eating right now, Tostillas! Haha! Anyway, thanks for reading my non-sense entry. Hehe. Get cracking! Have a nice day!
