Grammar: Easy To Learn But Hard To Apply

Filipino people are known as one of the best English speakers here in Asia. But more uneducated people are still growing here in the Philippines and doesn't know how to read and write in English form. When our teacher said that she collected some of are incorrect sentences in our blog. I felt nervous because I thought that I had errors written on the paper that my teacher gave to us. I was right I have 3 or more incorrect sentences written in the paper. At first, I felt humiliated when I saw it. After I read my errors, I realized that next time I need to be more careful in writing sentences and to follow rules in grammar. Also don't do sentences so fast because the person will may not notice his/her wrong grammar. I also realized that when I write sentences I must read it again and again so that I can identify my errors and change it with a right one.

In writing a sentence it must have a right grammar so that the readers will understand it. In our previous lessons about grammar I learned a lot of things in writing sentences and its help me to write a correct sentence. If my teacher didn’t thought us how to use a correct grammar I can’t write a correct paragraph. Also I would not improved my writings if I don’t have grammar lessons

I can improve my grammar and skills in grammar by studying my grammar lessons well and practicing speaking in English with my self. Also reading English books so that I can learn new unfamiliar words that I can use in writing. Also using dictionary in finding words that I do not know the right meaning so that I can use it correctly. Even though I can’t perfect my grammar and writing skills in English but I can minimize my mistakes.

Only in grammar can you be more than perfect.  ~William Safire

Share Victory or Share Defeat

Intramural sports are scheduled competitive and recreational activities and it helps people to develop their skills in playing the sports their like. During our foundation week, a week full of activities and one of them was the intrams or the sportfest. It includes the sports basketball, volleyball, badminton, and chess. I only joined volleyball and basketball team but I got sprained on  my right foot in our cheering dance the day before the sportfest. So I decided to play only basketball because that’s my favorite sports. Our first opponent was the 4^th year students  we were afraid that we will lose the game because they were older than us and they were excellent in playing basketball. I played 18 minutes in the game and had only 6 points and we won. I observed fairness between the players and the referees. But we lose the 2^nd and the 3^rd game, I do not observed the fairness. We were cheated by the referees and the committee. In our second game I was hit by our opponent in the face but the official don’t called for foul. I was so angry with that referees and I think that he had favoritism. We were also cheated in our score.  And in our last game all of us observed that the officials were not fair because I got only 2 fouls but they gave me 4 fouls and also my one teammate was also cheated because he had only 3 fouls but the official told him he had 4 fouls.

Not only in basketball that the officials were cheating also in other sports liked in volleyball and badminton. Even the some teachers and other staff were unfair. I also I observed camaraderie with my teammates. We have developed camaraderie after playing for so long. And in the game that we played we had a great teamwork and cooperation despite we were not a champion we were proud that we end the game without cheating. In other team I do not observed camaraderie liked in our last opponent their star player was so selfish that he do not pass the ball in his teammates but he always shoot the ball.

We know that cheating is a sin, so why we always doing that thing? To accomplished our goal? To be a winner? I learned that in every sport I play we need teamwork and trust to your teammates to win. It’s better to lose the game than to be unfair because in God eyes we our always a winner if we had clean fight with our opponent. I learned to have a self control and avoid to lose my temper. And do not argue with the officials but to respect even he cheated because only God will punish those people who keeps on cheating.

Talents wins games, but teamwork and intelligence wins championships

Being Discriminated? Say What ?? Its not big deal !!

According to the English dictionary, Discrimination is treatment or consideration of, or making a distinction in favor of or against, a person or thing based on the group, class, or category to which that person or thing belongs rather than on individual merit. But for me discrimination is making difference between people by his/her physical or mental problem. I think most of the people experienced discrimination in the way of age, racial, religious and gender or sex discrimination. In 1955 in some states in America blacks and whites to sit separately in restaurants, on buses and in other public places. Because of the racial discrimination began the unequal treatment between whites and blacks. It was stop by the Civil Rights Act against racial discrimination with the help of A civil right leader Martin Luther King Jr. A black American Nobel Prize winner.I am also a victim of discrimination. At a young age my friends laughed at me because of my physical appearance. They teases me that I am an Indian. It was hard for me to accept it because it was not true. Sometimes I cannot handle my temper and started to fought with them. During the time when I am a little boy my friends laughed and tease me and I was crying and after it happened I never played with them.Because of the discrimination I loses my confidence in dealing with other people and It was gave shamed to me. I also loses my freedom and I think anything I do is have limitations. It also affect my studies because also my classmates teases me. It also bring sadness because I want to be more comfortable with life.  I deal with it by asking helped with God and strong have faith with him. I don’t entertain people who will discriminate me. Only God can punished those who people who wants to hurts one’s life.

I’ve learned from my experienced is to have self control so that you will not lose your temper. and also do not entertain them because one’s you entertain them they will do not stop until you cry or until you become angry. Once you discriminate a person you also discriminate God. It is also a sin to discriminate a person because all of the people was created by God image

My mother together with my brother

Gaidel 

After my parents planned to have a child and after waiting for so long my mother got pregnant. They waited for nine months and finally my mother was rushed to a small clinic on 17^th of December one week before Christmas. Her first son was born named Gaidelvircel De Guzman De Leon and that baby boy is me. She loves me so much that she gave up his career to become model just to take care of me. Then she worked in a hotel just to earned money to buy all my desires. Even I don’t spent time with my mother most of the time she shows  her feelings by buying my favorite things. When I was 5 years old my mother revealed that she and my father were separated 3 years ago. After she told me that, I only see my father once a week. I was raised in a Christian family and I knew more about God during the time when  I was in preschool. Liked other children I enjoy playing with my friends outside our house.

When I was in grade 1 I only do self study, because I’m afraid with my mother when she teaching me my lessons she shouted to just get the lesson so me so I decided to do self study.

I entered summer classes until I reached grade 3.During grade 4 I learned how to play scrabble and became 1^st place in our school. When I was in grade 5 I’m addicted in watching wrestling and bought some of their products. During grade 6 I won in academics competition and I was on the top 10 outstanding student Finally I finished elementary. They said that high school life was the most memorable stage in a human life. When I entered high school I change my study habits and trying my best for a high grade. When I can’t solve or answer my homeworks at home My mother is always there to teach me all the things that its not cleared to me. When I was second year high school I became a pilot class at first I don’t want in that class because all of them are smart. After months had past  I found new friends we were liked brothers and sisters because we were close to each other during the happiest moments and sadness moments. I also do my best to have I grade and after the first quarter I was ranked  17^th overall. On July 29 2009 I surrendered my life to the Lord after the worship I became a born-again Christian. It change my life because of what happen I learned more about God and I began praying every night. I also joined in spiritual retreat,cell group and I also attending youth clubs When I was 13 years old, I read the bible from genesis from I Chronicles. I don’t finished it because I had no time to read it. Now I am third year student in Taytay United Methodist Christian School. For two consecutive years I was again in a pilot class. Also my grades are still moving. In 15 years living in this world I learned how to be independent. I can do all I want, liked spending time with my friends. Without the people around me I can’t accomplished my goals in. Many had moments past but more many moments will come until I reached my final journey. I became a lonely person before but now I have my friends and my God share with.
