8th meeting

I. Challenge yourself

Choose a challenge:

a. Tell the truth
b. Return recovered things (personal items, money, etc)
c. Admit mistaked.
d. Return excess change.
e. Avoid cheating

On your journal, process your experience with the aid of the following guide questions:

a. What challenge did you take?
b. Were you able to do the challenge? How do you feel about it?
c. What have you realized/learned from your experience?

ANSWER:

a. Return recovered things, the money of my sister.
b. Yes, I do. Nothing. It just normal because I'm not the kind of person whose going to get the money of other people because I know it's bad and besides, she's my sister, my own blood, why would I do such a thing to her like that. And being honest is really a giant word if I would tell it to myself, but being kinda one is so great, because you don't need to hide anything to anyone and that you are being true to yourself. And it's really great.
c. I realized like what I've said earlier in letter b. being honest is really a giant word, but if you will do this, I mean if you will be honest to yourself, moreover to others as well, you will have a feeling of contentedness, satisfaction and you will be great because being honest is an example of being a good person.

Challenge yourself

a. Get high score in a quiz or seatwork,

b. Were you able to beat the challenge? How do you feel about it?
c. What have you realized/learned from your experience?

Answer:

a. I take to get a high score in our 2nd long exam in Math. I got perfect and I have a excess of 2 points.
b. Yes I was and it felt that I have accomplished a great challenge by getting a perfect score in our 2nd long exam in Math and I'm so glad that because of these exam, it helps me to be in the Top 3 in the midterm in our section in my Math class.
c. I have learned that if you really want to get a high score, you must do your best and study hard for you to win it, because if you don't whatever you do, you cannot get a high score nd you cannot succeed in it. Being win to the challenge is very fulfilling and you will not have a feeling of doubts.

The most challenging thing I have ever accomplished

The Most Challenging Thing I have ever Accomplished

The most challenging thing I have ever accomplished is when I was in fourth year joining the Field Demo dancers club and to be graduated in highschool and to be in college. At the field demo, at first I don't know what are we going to do, if I'm going to have self-confidence dancing in front of many people with my groups, knowing that I have stage fright. But then when we won all of that feelings have vanished. We worked hard for it. We worked for us to win. And yet, it happened. And thanks to that co-curricular activity. It helps me to enter the top 10, although I did not intended to do so, but I'm thankful anyway. I'm very very glad to join them, at least now I know that even I have a stage fright, I can deliver it very well. Then being graduated in highschool is a lot for me. Because it means that I need to tackle another journey in my life, and that is college. At first when I'm still in fourth year highschool, I always think what would be my life in college and that time I don't want the 4th year highschool to be end because I'm so afraid to enter college life. But then, here I am, being graduated and now, the 1st term in college is also going to end. For me it's the most challenging thing that I have ever accomplished now in my life. And we'll going to see, in many years that would come, I will accomplished a new challenge that will going to happen to me.

VE011- Assignment #3

  • If you will have one outstanding virtue, what would you want it to be? Why?
Answer:

  • Knowledge in being honest with God. For me, it's the best and outstanding virtue in life. Because the first building block of a deeper friendship with God is complete honesty---about your faults and your feelings. God doesn't expect you to be perfect, but he does not insist on complete honesty.

Assignment in VE011

1. How was your first week of stay at MCL?

Answer:

>It's great! I met new friends, I got the time to know them better, I got bond with them when I'm at the school. Actually right now, I enjoyed going to school because of them. I had a great time to be with them, right now, I can be myself when I'm with them, the real me, "makulit", "palabiro", but there are times when I need to be serious like for example in my studies. And it's just the first week what more the other week that were going to come. In my courses, I learned a lot and I was about to understand it everyday when were going to have a lecture. And I can say, my first week at MCL was great and awesome.

2. Describe your professors. What are traits do you find positive in each one?

Answer:

>They were strict (some of them) yet they're nice sometimes, some of them were really nice and actually all of them can be easily approached.
>Traits that I find positive about them, as I've said earlier some of them were really strict but I know that they're just like that because they just want us to learn more about the things about us, they just want us to be responsible and independent enough to stand on our own, and I think that the positive traits they have.
>Second, they're nice and they had time to have fun with their students.
>Last, they can easily approached by the students, for example in their lesson, the students can ask and tell them the things they don't understand and the professors with be glad and patient to answer all their question.

3. Describe your blockmates/section. What do you think are the strengths and weaknesses of your section?

Answer:


>Our blockmates were really nice and actually the're friendly, even though sometimes they're really naughty and absolutely noisy.
>The strengths of our section, we are all can be friends and we can understand each other's feeling. and I know that the time will come that we're all going to be really really close and nobody in our section will going to be alone anymore.
>On the other hand, the weaknesses of our section sometimes some of us were really really noisy that the rest of us cannot concentrate with our professor and some of us became naughty (some of the times).

4. How do you find your courses? Which ones do you think are easy and which ones do you think are a little bit challenging? Why?

Answer:

>How do I find my courses? I find it very interesting that in any course you would take you're actually going to ask yourself "Is this course will going to be enjoyable or desaster?", " Am I going to learn more here?", "Am I going to pass this course?" It's just that, you want to know if you are really truly applicable for the program that you're taking right now.
>I think the course that is easy for me is Math, I don't know, I just like Math and I think that it's the course that I can easily understand (maybe now, I don't know in the coming days??).
>The courses that are really challenging for me are I.T and Drawing. Because honestly, I'm not onto computers, I find it hard to understand, I don't know, I'm just not really good at it. In the Drawing, I really had a hard time to draw something and at the same time, at that subject I've become nervous.

5. Do you have any adjustment you feel you are going through or must go through? What are they? Cite examples in terms in your academics, emotions, and social environment.


Answer:

>Yes. In academic, I need to have a self-confidence for my own sake to show to people that I can do what is really assigned me to do. Emotions, I'm really sensitive, that I easily cry when I can't really take or I can't really handle the emotions inside of me. Social environment, I need to be socialized with the people around me, 'cause I'm really a "shy-type" person.
