I really hate making essays. During our tests, when we have an essays I do not really answer this type of question. That is one reason sometimes I do not pass in our tests.
I was really shock when Sir Elmer talked about this blog project because I did not expect this. Other teachers do not give us as hard as this blog project for me. That is why I told my self that this blog project is really a crazy thing.
On the first weeks of this blog project, i really did not do anything but pass an empty blog. I know from the start that I will not make this project complete because it is really so hard for me. I did not expect much on myself. I took for granted all the time that i was so vacant for these posts. But what else can a student do if the teacher really requires this kind of thing? There is really nothing can a student do but to follow or else get the unexpected grade.
These blog project helps me learn more to use the proper English skills or how to use properly English. I also speeds up my tyoing skills. And also my composition skills bettered than those of the things when I was not making this thing. It also made my pocket empty after this few days had passed. I only made my second posts last Wednesday of last week so i really have some sleepless nights thinking about all these things because i am the type of person who really can not sleep well if there is a problem going on into my life. but these day I will end all my problems I do not have to think about it anymore even if i lacked some posts especially the assigned topics.
What made me do this project is that i want to be competitive with my friends. They always talk about this and i am really so left behind. Others have posted more than 40% of the real posts. Some completely had typed the posts. But even though, i know inside me that if i really just made this project, i won't have been not that busy for these past days.
In our group, i think it is only Faith who really posted the number of posts. While us, i do not know. One reason i think is that they have internet connection in their house. She has all the facilities to make this project.
But i was really glad when Sir Elmer lessen the number of posts. His lessening of the post did not affect my somrething because I did not still do my project .
I think this will be my last post for this night and i will never complete this blog project anymore because i am really tired now. i want my body to reat already.
Blogger, thank you for letting me experience this kind of experience. Sir Elmer, I amreally sorry if i did not comply or i did not made it. I think i have done my best. Thank you also Faith for letting me use your computer at my firsr blog.
"I am such a drama piggy!" what April always tell me.

Bakekang
Bakekang, starred by Sunshine Dizon, Yasmien Kurdi, and Lovi Poe, is the one and only show I love the most in GMA. I like the story of it because it is sometimes funny and other times very dramatic. It teaches us lessons in life and though there are some violent and PG scenes, the main theme is encouraging and inspiring somehow. It teaches us how to love, how to value family, and how to handle fame and humility. Anyway, here's a little of its plot.
Bakekang was a girl who had high hopes for her future. Despite her being poor and her ugliness, and despite all the teases and hurt she'd been going through, she didn't give up with life. She planned to lure an American citizen so that he'd lay down with her in bed. She wanted it to happen so that her child would not be ugly like her. Her plan worked and after some months, she gave birth to two girls. The first one was ugly and dark in color and the other one was very pretty and has a fair complexion. The children grew old and the ugly one, Charming, envied her sister, Krystal, the most because their mother wanted the pretty baby more than her.
Then goes the story. I like it so much because of some funny moments. Bakekang is so cruel when she is the one who gets hurt already and ends up beating or fighting with Valeria, her greatest enemy, or Tiya Mameng and her family. She is such a strong lady and someday, I want to be like her. I wasn't referring to her face, alright? I just want her courage and strength to face problems in life. And mind you, she is now being chased by two handsome men, certainly not because of her beauty, but because of her kindness and her strong attitude towards life. I also like her because she loves her children so much, even though she uses favoritism sometimes. That's all. She's my idol, you know.
What I like about Krystal is that she is also very kind to her ugly sister. Even though she was already a celebrity back then, she never really boasted about it to anyone. She really loved her sister. She is also loving to her mother and to everyone else.
With Charming, she is a very patient and ugly girl...before. But now, she is beautiful because of plastic surgery made by Valeria. Before, she was very kind and pretty on the inside but now, she is already very boastful and arrogant to everyone, even her sister and her mother. She is really very cruel now, especially because she's in the wrong hands.
The story goes on up to now in GMA 7. It gets more thrilling and thrilling, especially because of its nearing end which is this Friday. And they did it as a way of a concert. You know, Krystal and Charming will compete and all. I have many ideas in mind on how this will end but one thing's for sure, it will be a nice one.
Reflections on Teachers and Teaching
As I have said in my older posts that teaching is the hardest kind of profession. Especially if you teach from the bottom of your heart because you should gain confidence and strenght from yourself and if you do not, you can not teach properly to your students the things you really need to discuss and maybe you end up by trapping them and make them not to understand more on the topic. It is really hard especially if there are students who really are naughty. It feels also good because there are also some who respects you even if you are just there to substitute the real teacher.
I will never forget January 25, 2007 for it was the day where I experienced it all. Many things realy hapeened in that one day. I am so flattered at what some of my classmates told me that I was good in teaching at that particular subject because I really explained to them the lessons. There are also some classmates of mine who made me very disappointed especially when it was the last period I have to teach.That was when I taught in Math II-B (Geometry) with the other section. It was because that I was not able to take my third period in the afternoon. I really had fun teaching with them because they are so behave. Both sections are really participates in my discussion. It was music time and we had a graded exercise in that particular subject. My head was very busy on what to do because another problem occured. I have to give them a seatwork but i do not have any sample questions so I have to make my own and I have to answer it also. It is a good thing that a friend of mine helped me answer the questions I gave to them. He was aalso exempted because he will be teaching in that subject too. He is James Chua. We both taught in the subject Math II-A (Advance Algebra) but he was assign the next day.
During that day I have really a hard time. But it was all worth it because I learned many lessons in just that one day of my life. I have learned that being a teacher, you should be patient to your students. I also learn that you should not be too self-confident because in the end it might be the reason why you fall down because you were so proud of yourself. There are also a lot of problems that a real teacher is undergoing like for an example checking the papres. Some teachers do not consider even if it has only a small mistake but others really consider the hardwork of the students.
So we students should always remember the hardworks that our teachers are doing in order gor us to learn. They are oursecond parents because we most of the time spend our time in school studying.
All I can say is "Thank You Teachers" for really being there for us in times that we need you.

The Real Me, Inside and Out
I may not be as handsome as Sam Milby.I may not be that rich as Brad Pitt. And I may not be tall like Yao Ming but I can be good like the people who are really good and not pretending to be others in theirselves.
By the way, my name is Ronald L. Baldo and I live at 45 S. cabahug St., Mabolo, Cebu City. I am a second year student of the University of the Philippines in Cebu. I am from section Palma and I am proud of it. My alma mater in elementary is Mabolo Elamentary School. I am the youngest sibling of Paz and Ramon Baldo. I have 1 sister and 2 brothers.
My hobbies are to play volleyball, go to malls and surf with the computer. Well, if you ask me about my favorit color, my answer is purple. They say that purple is the color of the woman but I do not care about it. I like it because I just like it.
Food is nice to be a topic but for noe I am having some habits of not eating sometimes because I do not want to be as fat as the barrel of water. But I really love to eat spaghetti and lumpia, I think. That's for now.
I love Rachelle Ann Go when she sings and I like her beauty too even if my friends would say that she have her "retoke-thing in the nose". I also love Nina and her hit song "Someday". It is so meaningful.
I have many friends in school, i think but there really my true friends who never leaves me in times when I am in need.They are my friends since elementary years. They are April, Faith and Fatima. They are always with me.
Some of my classmates told me that I am good in Math. The truth is I am really not that good. I just really like the subject Mathematics. And I think that if you really love that subject then you will really learn because you have that something in your self to really study thar subject.
Enough for the outside things, let's go to the inside part of me. I really like that balance thing in my mind. I want that all will be fair and I do not want that there are some who abuse their power because they are in the authority. I really hate persons who feel like thay know everything and also people who feels like they are the cutest or smartest. I also hate people who putys another person in danger. those who are nice to you when you speak to them but backbites you when you turn around. I want to jam with other people and I want others to laugh with me.
Let's talk about love now. I do not expect a lot at her. I just want her ro be simple and funny sometimes. I hate persons who take relationships so serious because you do not know in the end that those person will just leave you.
And that's just a part of what I am. I want you to figure some in my life.

LOVE IS A FALLACY (SUMMARY)
One afternoon, Petey was lying on his bed with an expression of such distress on his face. And then a young man at age eighteen who was very smart, acute, and astute passed by him. He described his powerful brain as a dynamo. He is studying at a law school as the same with Petey.The man diagnosed Petey and found that he was suffering from appendicitis. What really bothered him was a raccoon coat.It was found later that his sickness was mental and not physical. He said, he was like a fool for his money was spent for books and nothing is left for a raccoon coat.Big men on the campus are wearing it, " said Petey. I was not aware of the style because I was in the library. Petey was willing to give up anything in exchange for a raccoon coat.But there is one thing that Petey has, he is the first one to take for a date, Polly Espy. She is the most elegant and the most gorgeous girl he have so far seen. The way she eats and walks has the word elite on it. She was all he ever wanted, and all an intellectual guy like him would ever need.
The man is going to his house for the weekend and promise to bring something for his roommnate. After the man has come back, he brought with him a raccoon coat that what Petey really loves. Petey was very excited about the coat but the man told Petey to give him something in exchange of it. The man ask for the girl, Polly Espy. At first Petey did not want the deal but he thinks that he was just the one in the school who do not have a raccoon coat. at the end he gave Polly to the man.
The man took Polly the night after the deal. They went to eat and to watch a movie.After the man go to drop Polly. The man notice that Polly was not that intelligent for him so he had an idea the next night. They went under an oak tree and discuss the different fallacies. The man taught her the fallacies of Dicto Simpliciter, Hasty Generalization,Post Hoc, Contradictory Premises, Ad Misericordiam, Hypothesis Contrary to Fact.There was the time when he taught her about the only fallacy she correctly analyzed, the Poisoning the Well. She perfectly responded to the problem he gave her this time. That time, he was already filled with hope again. After the fifth night, He have made the perfect girl. Then, he tried on putting their dates from intellectual to romantic.
When the man finally had the courage to tell Polly his feelings,he was shocked to the way Polly replied to his words. Polly answered in a way that she make use of the fallacies. The man told her that she doesn't have to apply the fallacies all the time in because these fallacies are only taught inside the a four-walled room but Polly still continued to reply him on those fallacies. Then he asked her directly if she'd accept his love. But he was surprised when she refused, and the reason is because she promised Petey she'll be his that afternoon. He asked her why she chose Petey than him. Polly answered that she chose Petey beecause he has a raccoon coat.

YM
My friends and I really love to go to internet cafes. We sometimes just search for them just to have internet.We love to chat, to view our friendster profile, to watch some movies or music videos, or sometimes play.
I myself also loves to visit Yahoo Messenger because in there you are free to do anything(and especially you can have your codename). In messenger I do not really use my real name, I use a codename to hide myself. It feels so exciting if you have a chatmate who really do not know about you. In messenger sometimes you should be honest and sometimes it is better to lie. I commit these kinds of mistakes.I lie because I did not use my real name and I am honest in some aspects that I really express my real feelings to what we are talking about with my chatmates.I knew many people because of this messenger and there are really some whom I can not forget.
It started when i poened my messenger account and visited a chat room in USA. Then "K" (I gave it as his codename) greeted me while I was on that room.We talked with him a lot and I found out that they are going to visit the Philippines this coming summer time. I asked where particularly in the Philippines are they going to visit.He said that they are going to visit Danao and immediately I thought where is Danao and think that there is only one Danao City I have known in the Philiipines and that is located in Cebu. I asked if it is in Cebu but unfortunately, I ran out of time and I should bid goodbye to him anymore because we are still going to have apur class in the afternoon.
Many days had passed and I was not able to chat with "K" anymore. Faith knew about "K" and told another friend of ours who was not able to go with us about it. She told the e-mail add of "K". Fatima wants to chat with "K" so she inited "K" in the messenger. "K" accepted her invitation and they became friends in the messenger. Until one day when I was suppose to make my blog project and I saw "K" was online. Fatima was online a while ago before "K" was online. After she log-out, "K" log-in in the messenger. She was not able to chat with him. So we talked with him. After talking, he asked me if I will be online tomorrow of that day at 12:30. I answered him that I will try.
The next day I told my friends about it and I waas really laugh so hard because Fatima was not able to chat with "K". In the noon of that day, I was not able to chat with him because there was a big problem. Even though I want to go, I can' t really because it was a big,big,big problem to face. In the evening of that same day, I opened my messenger and found out that he was online and with his friends. My friends and his friends knew each other already it was just I who did not know them at first. We also chatted with his friends in that day. I had really fun on that day also.
I was really had fun with messenger because I met some people who are really nice.

Movie Time
I really enjoy watching movies especially when you are with your friends and families. It is good because there are people whom you can laugh with.
When there are times that we do not have a regular classes, we always visit the house of Faith to have internet or sometimes watch movies. We have seen many movies already in their house.
We have seen horror movies like the Grudge 2 and Hostel. We screamed and sometimes we are scolded by some of the relatives of Faith. Fatima is really the coward ion the group especiall if we watch like those movies.She do not want to see some scenes especiall if it is very bloody o really scary.
We have also watched movie White Chicks and Little Man and we really laugh very hard that causes our stomach to ache. I can not forget these movies because it was really so enjoyable and it made me stand on my seat. In the movie, White Chicks I will never forget these lines, "Your mother is so...." I really laugh at it. The story was
about two black americans who worked as policemen. And their job was to keep the Watson's sister safe in going to their destination. But unfortunately, their car was bumped and the sisters had a wound. the sisters do not want to go anymore. One black american decided that they will be the one who will substitute the sister and the story went on. While in the Little man, it was all about a little black american (who was also one of the main characters in the White Chicks) who wants to get a diamond and accidentally put it in a woman which is also black and the woman had a husband. the little man wants to get the diamond so he pretended to be a baby. and the story went on again.
We also watch the movie "John Tucker must Die". It was a love story. And it was about the campus crush who is John Tucker. He had three girlfriends at the same time and the three do not know about it. Until one girl who was working at the restaurant where John Tucker dates her girlfriends appear. She told everything she knows to the three. The three tried to confront John Tucker but he is really good in hiding. Until they really saw what John Tucker is doing. The three wants to revenge on John Tucker so they use the girl who told them everything. And still the story went on.
The last film i can rewmeber we watch was "Herbie: Fully Loaded". The story was about a volkswagoon car which used to be a race car. Herbie was the name of the car. It has a mind of its own like a person. Herbie was given to a girl who was newly graduated. Herbie defeated the most popular car racer. And the story went on when they decided to join a car race.
