VALUES EDUCATION-Last Journal Entry


REFLECTION ON MY REALTIONSHIPS BETWEEN FRIENDS

1. The lessons I had learned from my past and present relationships are how to handle that relationship for us to maintain the good bonding. I also learned how to act properly when interacting with my friends. Even if we are very close to each other, still, we have the limitations. And from all the experiences I had from them, I will never forget how they had changed my life into the better one.
2. In order to make a relationship work, first thing you must prioritize is the love to that person/s. If you are interested with them and you love them, it will be easy for you to commit your own self to the relationship. This commitment will help you to make your relationship lasts.
3. My advice is just enjoy the life, but limit your actions to avoid trouble. Do not forget to feel them how they are important to you. Never be tired of doing little things for them. Sometimes, those little things are the big things which are treasured and kept in their hearts.

VALUES EDUCATION-9th Meeting


1. I experienced negative pressure when I was in high school and even this 1st semester. I was forced by my friends to go to the mall after class even without the permission of my parents.
2. Even if they really forced me to go, I still did not go because I was highly influenced by my angel (conscience).
3. I felt very respectable about my decision.
4. I have learned from my experience that it is not bad to disapprove all the happy things in life because if that thing is not for the better, it is worthy to lose them than to punish and regret.

VALUES EDUCATION-8th Meeting


1.
a) The challenge I had taken is to avoid cutting a class for me to review for the exam on the next class.
b) I was able to do the challenge and I feel proud yet little disappointed. I feel proud because I was able to control and avoid myself from doing bad, and little disappointed because I was not able to prepare for the examination.
c) I realized that it is good that I was able to control myself and I learned that I should be strict in budgeting my time so that I can do all my responsibilities and preparations for a task.

VALUES EDUCATION-7th Meeting


From the results of my personal heath assessment, I realized that I am not that a healthy person especially in physical aspects. In order to be a healthy person, I plan to give time for myself to have rest for me to return my lose energies. I should also have a balanced diet with lots of water and vitamin C to make my resistance stronger.

VALUES EDUCATION-6th Meeting


1.
a) The challenge I had taken is getting a high score in the quiz in
Chemistry.
b) I was able to beat the challenge and I felt happy and fulfilled.
c) I realized that I can always get high scores in all courses if only study
hard.
2. I was not able to watch the whole film but the most striking scene for me is the one that shows the effects of global warming to the Earth. My emotions while watching the film are alarmed, complicated, and depressing. After watching the film, I realized that we must now think not only ourselves but also other people. We must take care all of the things around us especially the things that God had given us. The actions that I can commit in order to take care of the environment is by properly segregating the trashes, using the right amount of papers, and saving electricity and water.

VALUES EDUCATION-5th Meeting


The most challenging thing I have ever accomplished was when I learned how to drive a single bike. Yes, learning how to drive a single bike made me challenged. I just learned how to bike when I was in third year high school. When I was still a kid, my friends taught me several times how to bike; unfortunately, I did not make it, because I did not have yet the self- confidence, and I was afraid. Consequently, when we lived in Malitlit, I found a new friend and he was very nice. I also found that my friend and his nephew were good in biking. Of course, it made me amazed because they drove the bike very fast without holding on the handle. As soon as we became a little close to each other, they taught me how to drive it. Even though I was afraid to get injuries, I kept in my mind that I should learn it by now because I was not a kid now and it was a shame that my younger sister who was 6 years old younger than me had already did that. Fortunately, I learned how to drive a single bike without getting any injuries, and it was because of my full effort, dedication, determination, and focus, and with the support of my friends, and my sister.
