yesterday was a day full of learning...
feb 25, 2009 was the when the 1st debate seminar workshop was held at brokenshire college (avr 2 to be specific)..
the speakers were from the Ateneo Debate Community (ADC) of ADDU. there were a lot of them who attended the said activity but only 2 were the speakers - joanne and marvin ty. joanne is actually ADC's senior adjudicator, and...i forgot what marvin's role was...basta, he was very good as well! by the way, adjudicator means a judge in a debate competition..hehe, a new thing learned:)
we had real fun though nervous and pressured at times...
the entire populace was divided into 2 groups - one to stand for the government (the affirmative side); and the other to stand for the opposition (the negative side)..
by chance, i was a part of the (+) side..hehe. i was with jylo, glaizel, my fellow educ studes and other participants...
there would be an exercise debate, of course, to see how far have we gone in just a couple of hours of seminar...
who0o0ot! supposedly, it was arlyn's team to be the representative of the (+) side,
but it ended up with me, jylo and glaizel as the debaters for the Government's side.
wow! i was like "HELLO? WHAT AM I GONNA DO THERE?!"...
it was really my first time to involve myself in such exercise...i was indeed nervous! i didn't know what would be my role, what would be the things i were to say, stuffs like that! but thank god, all was settled... i was the Deputy Prime Minister, the 2nd speaker next to the Prime Minister, jylo was the PM and glaizel was the Govt. whip, the last speaker...
wow mom! it was not an easy match! the opposition was also good in speaking and presenting data! bang!!! what a clash!
oh well, at the end of the day, what matters is that we all had a lot of things learned in the seminar...not just that, we also gained new friends:)
though the other ADC members held criticisms against us, the novice debaters, it was really OK! through that, we will be able to improve our selves in the field of debating! thank god for this chance:)
>>>who0o0t! after the seminar was a lot of food trip!
wuaaaaaaaaaah! we headed dencios! whew!
with pearl, glaize, jylo and peggy...if im not mistaken, it's peggy:)
great time!!!
^^all smiles!

why did i choose this course?
hello buddies!!!
I'm presently a college freshman at Brokenshire College taking up Bachelor of Secondary Education. Now, if you would ask me why did i choose this field...I would say, I chose this track because it has always been my passion to teach. I could still remember when I was young, I used to utilize the walls of our house to write something on them using a piece of chalk. I would talk and talk as if a crowd of students were listening to me when in fact there was not a single person there. It was really my past time before. Another reason also was the influence of my mother. She used to be a teacher in kindergarten but had an early retirement when i was born. She preferred to be a full time mom since we didn't have sufficient money to pay for a nanny while she was working. Since then, she has been my tutor, coach, trainer and professor. She molded me into becoming who I am now. Somehow, it built up the aspiration in me to follow her footsteps. Eventhough she has not finished her teaching profession, I think she's worth appreciating. Teaching may not be a highly-paid job, but it is a noble one! As a teacher, you are the molder of the young minds leading them to be who they can become in the future. As they say, no doctors, no businessmen, and no leaders will be around if not for these people who have exerted much efforts in the name of an existent service - TEACHERS.
I wanna be like them someday... In God's help, I will. ^^

♥♥♥♥
yesterday, i have received a text message and it really struck me..haha!
it goes this way:
"when you love someone, you better prove it...because if you don't, they might not believe you.
...for love is not a noun to be defined but a verb to be acted out."
>>cute noh?!
well, it speaks for itself.
it's not just enough to tell someone you love him/her,
the words you've spoken out should be proved or else,
they'll be worthless!
diba?!
belated happy valentines buddies ♥♥♥

ಮಕಿಂಗ್ ದಿ ಅದ್ಜುಸ್ತ್ಮೆಂತ್: ಕಾಲೇಜ್ ಲೈಫ್ ಥಟ್ ರೋಕ್ಕ್ಸ್!
last friday, feb6, we had our group counseling at C-001. it was spearheaded by the new level 1 counselor. [Maam Maggie was assigned in the HS and CDC dept. already.]
the said event was really fun. we had groupings and then activities... plus candies as freebies! haha...
the most relevant part there was, i think, the lecture that was given to us by Sir.
it was about making the adjustments as college freshmen - how to cope with the most common prob of college studes, STRESS!
there were a lot of things mentioned as probable causes of stress like anxiety, anger, fear as well as the lack of self confidence.
speaking of self-confidence, there were also points presented by Sir as to how studes like us should build up the confidence within.
it was highlighted that self-confidence enables us to make our goals come into reality. i mean, when you have self-confidence, you know your capabilities, your strengths and the areas where you are not that competent with.
if this is so, then you don't get discouraged easily when you've failed once,,,
cause you know that failing once doesn't mean you will be a failure all through the way!
you are aware of the things you can do. hence, when you fail to accomplish a thing at the moment, you assure yourself to do better the next time - cause you know you can!
instead of wasting time looking back all that you've lost, you are encouraging yourself to continue and look forward to a lot of positive things yet to happen in your life :)
>now, surely we would be able to cope with the probs with ease.
(i just hope so with others...)
thanks for the things we've learned!
that activity was worth attending...
kudos CPWC!
