Reflective Essay

     When our class adviser, Mrs. Boniao told us that we are going to do blogging for the Fourth and Last Grading, it was kind of mixed emotions because I totally have no idea what blogging is, I just heard of it but I never tried making one. I think its part of social networking so I think I’m going to do well about this because I really like social networking and I often spend most of my time exploring the Web.

    During encoding our written outputs, I was like checking every single word and phrases because I don’t want any mistakes and I wanted to make my blog nice and clear.  As I was touring Blogger, it was really cool having a look on its features, layouts and etc. You can design your blog according to your style and whatever you like. So after that, I was so excited making blog because I just read on the web that using a blog helps learners improve their writing competencies, it also captures changes in thinking, and it encourages people to continuously try things out. I can also be able to express myself through my writings and I’m ready to let the world see my own abilities.

     Having done my blog was a total relief because all the effort, the hard work that I’ve gone through and all the late nights that I spent making the blog was worth it. Wew! Exhaustion has even worth doing because I’m finally done.  Even though my blog was just simple, but still I’m happy with my work and I hope that everyone would like it.

     I was really grateful because Mrs. Boniao let us make this wonderful publishing service that would make the world hear our voices and all thanks to her for helping us in everything.

What Christmas Means To Me

     Christmas Day is fast approaching; we all can already feel the essence of Christmas in the beginning of the month of December. I guess most of us love Christmas most among all the celebrations of every year. I celebrate Christmas with my family and relatives but what really is Christmas? What does it mean for us individually? 

     I really love Christmas time, I always wish that everyday would be Christmas and the month of December is my favorite month because for me, it's the most joyful month of the year. We always go hang around together with my family. Gifts, foods, and parties are the stars of Christmas. For others, without those, Christmas wouldn't be complete. I always think it's not always having foods and partying for Christmas, as long as we are with our dearly family and we are guided by God, Christmas would never be happier. The true essence of Christmas is on how we could share God's blessings, it is by giving and loving each other, we can show to others peace and show them that we care. It is not just for us but for everyone to achieve. Helping hand is an important thing for us, especially now that we're having trouble about the economy and problems of nature. Loving our own self is being selfish because we all need to love each other even though we all don't have the same standards on this world, we're in different country, different nationality and different beliefs but we're all created by God. We'll always have to remember that God loves us and He'll do anything for us because He cares for us and He loves us so much.
