10 - Beauty of Nature

POEM

A beautiful thing to be seen

How much should it be appreciated

Existed before Christ

What a wonderful creation has been made

How lovely are the Flowers

With the colors that complement

A scent of them that smells so sweet

It gives you a happy heart

The lively green Trees that sways

Because of the wind that blows

Breeziness is felt and

Fresh air is inhaled

A River flowing down

To the wide looking lake

Rocks and Boulders are felt cold

Because of the river flowing on them

The waving Ocean

Is a big body of water

So very blue and deep

It would never run out

Different Creatures and

Different Species

All unique and existing

Commanded to go and multiply

Beauty of  Nature

With all the calmness and peace

Seeking the Paradise of it

Would be forever and always

9 - The Touch Of A Piano

POEM

A single press on the keyboard
Echoes a perfect tone of sound
Feeling the coldness and the warmth
Because of the calm excitement

When a pleasant tone was made
Smoothness was the reason why
A perfect piece was played
How wonderful it is to hear

I get carried away
By the song being expressed
Overwhelmed or not
Emotions are all over the place

A smile comes out
On a glad looking face
For it lightens up
The heart and soul

A passion to share and
A passion to hope for
A God given feeling
How wonderful it would always be

8 - My Hope for the Future

WHEN I'M OLDER


Knowingly, many teenagers and adults nowadays are successful with their work and obligations in life. Even with their dream goals, they were able to accomplish a lot of them. That's why many of them are focusing on their families right now because they want to return all the favors. If not because of their families care and support, they might not be able to achieve their goals in life. It is very overwhelming to see the people whom you love being happy with the things that you give to them because it shows that they really appreciate the support you are giving to them now.

I myself have dreams and goals too when I'm older. First is that I want to be able to finish all my school works. School works that I would encounter from my freshmen year up to my internship year. I want also to be able to graduate college soon. When I'm older, I want to be able to find the best job for me. The job where  it has nice figures or salary and it is also a God given one. Technically a career related to the course that I took so that I won't have to experience much difficulty and I would enjoy my work, and also, I won't be out of place. I want to be successful with my future career because I gave a word to my  parents that I would help them in the time where I am already working. Facing my new obligations towards my family is part of growing up. Your life is really meant to go on like that. It's also the time in your life where you become so matured with many things. Another one is that when I'm older, I want to do things freely. Like I want to have this certain freedom where I can do mostly anything. In short, I want my parents to be less strict and less overprotective when that time comes. Getting married and having kids are also two things that I want to happen when I'm older. I want to marry someone who is like my father. Also, I want to have beautiful and cute babies. Babies that came from me and which I can call mine. 

Basically when your older, that's where everything starts. Your life being a young teenager would have a total turn around. Not only your maturity would change, even your adolescence would. When you are already facing the real world, expect that you would encounter more trials and challenges in life. That's why many people say expect the unexpected. But if you are close to God, you shouldn't worry much. Just always remember that God will never leave nor forsake you. He's in charge of what's coming ahead of your life.

7 - What's Good and Bad about being Alone?

ALONE


Many people nowadays, are adapting this kind of attitude being a loner. Some of them spend much of their time doing nothing, while on the other hand, some of them spend most their time doing their favorite hobbies or interests. Instead of doing their comfort zones with their circle of friends, they rather do it alone with themselves because for them it's more convenient and less hassle when they do it in a solo way.

A person who is always spending his or her time being alone has different kinds of reasons or views towards it. They have this kind of attitude where they just want to be alone in one place and stare or look at something. Like for example the wall or the ceiling, they would imagine many things while they are just staring at them. Another one is when some people go to some places like the mall or the grocery stores, they would rather go alone than to be accompanied by someone because for them it's easier to move faster. Some people just read books in one corner. They tend to feel the peace and silence surrounding them especially if they are engrossed with the story that they are reading. Also with music, people tend to listen to music all the time because they feel relaxed and calm whenever they hear one. It's like being alone with music helps them express what they feel inside them or it could possibly give them inspiration whenever they are working on something. Another one also is that many people nowadays love to be living alone in with their own lives because some of them doesn't want to be obliged with anything especially if it's about family matters.


I was able to realize many things about this topic. It really has some positive and negative things about it. Like for positive, it can help you avoid doing bad things with other people. Another one also is that you can do whatever you want. You would be able to do all your  plans and agendas. It's also possible that you won't have to worry spending or sharing time with other people. For the negative things, there is the tendency that you would become an introvert because you don't know what the people are thinking about you. You might think that people would always say negative things about you. What's worst is that you might possibly think that you are being judged. Another thing is that you can be called a loner by someone especially if you are the type of person who doesn't communicate or interact with other people. There is a possibility that your self-esteem and self-confidence would level down because you don't have someone who can support or cheer for you in the times that you need one.

6 - My Biological Twin Brother

DESCRIBE A FAMILY MEMBER


Whenever you say something about a person, you get to think of the things that would describe him or her. It's also possible that you would mention something unique about that person. That's why you could also be tested in how well do you know the person already. But for me, describing a person is also one way where you can be able to share to other people what type of person he or she is.

How would I describe Bernard Corpus as my sibling? Well for me, we are partners in crime. When it comes to big or minor problems, he is always there to back me up. Sometimes, he would also help me with my opinions and decision makings. There are times that he doesn't agree with my opinions. That's why it's also hard if you both have different views. But knowing Bernard, he has different kinds of personalities that most people don't see in him. He's this type of guy who is really sweet and caring when it comes to his family and friends. Whenever you need a help with something, he would try all his best in helping you with your problem. Bernard is a sensitive person. He doesn't want getting hurt or seeing other people getting hurt. Though there are times that he likes teasing or making fun of other people especially if what the person did was really funny. One victim of that is me. I easily get upset whenever he bullies me or teases me. It irritates me a lot because usually that's the cause of our argument. Then we end up stirring fights sometimes. But what I like about Bernard is that he can easily change my bad mood into a good mood. He would usually say something really funny and amusing, and I have no choice but to laugh really hard. Even when he is in front of the class, he would always capture the attention of the audience. That's why I can really say that he has a good sense of humor. A natural comedian if I must say. But my most favorite thing about Bernard is that we are both gamers and we both love eating. I am actually happy about it because at least we have things in common also.

If you are describing or saying something about a person, you should really get to know the person first, so that you can avoid judging or criticizing the person. You can be able to see his or her real attitude or personality. Even how the person acts with his or her natural behavior. But for me, I like being real with the person sometimes so that he or she is aware of how people look at them. But of course I don't say it in a hurting way but rather in a calm and gentle way. Then probably complimenting them by their good attitudes is also one way of letting them feel that they are really appreciated.
