REFLECTION PAPER
There are so many things that I discovered about myself. Being a college student is
not an easy task. There is an adjustment that I’ve done just to adapt, because a college student
and being in a high school life is so different. In this session I realized and discover about
myself that if you have weakness, there is also a strength that is waiting for me. In appendix
B: Blank Vinta, our teacher let us wrote those people who give me light, strength, influence,
and most of all gives me a reason to not give up in every problem that I encounter. And with
that I wrote those people who are the reasons of pursuing my dreams and not giving up. In
appendix C, I also realized that there are things that I’ve done just to cope up with my stress.
This stress is one of the reasons why we give up and gives us a headache, heartache, that
gives us the reason to give up, but because of this people who are always with me, who
believed in me, I stand and willingly faced those trials that I encountered. Listening to music
help me relieved those stress. Appendix G, is an activity that want us to wrote those negative
feelings, thoughts, and behaviors. This gives me a hard time because writing those things is
so hard for me and break my heart while writing it. But after that it let us wrote the positive
side of it. It made me think that not all the time, it is negative but there is also a positive side
waiting for it. There is also an activity that want us to write the problems that I encountered
on this day, especially in college days. I realized that there’s uncontrollable and controllable
problems that I faced, but that doesn’t mean that (uncontrollable) there is no solution. There
is always a solution in every problem that I encounter because that’s what our activity makes
me realized. There are people who believed in me, my family, friends, best friends,
classmates, cousins, organizations that I joined and so on. I feel happy, lucky, relieved and
great for having those people in my life. They are the one who listens and give an inspiration
in every challenge that I encounter. They are with me every up and down, they never left my
side. They never let me faced my problems alone, with them every problem there always be a
solution. There are five activities or behavior that I wrote; friendly, hangout with friends and
drink alcohols, travelling, praising God, and doing my best in my studies. After writing I
realized that some of the things that I have done should be stop like drinking alcohol, start
like study habit and continue like doing my best in my studies. In every problem, I should not
just view the negative side but also the positive. I should find a solution because God never
give us a problem to give up, but for us to build the better or the best us. We might feel alone
but we are not alone, there is God, families and friends who awaited us to come to them, who
give us guidance. We should not be shy in asking them for help because they care for us and
willing to do anything just to help us.
As of now life is hard and full of trials. There are problems that is really hard to find
solution especially in financial. There is adjustment that should be done. It is not easy to see
the people you loved suffer, and finding a way just for you and for them to pursue what you
have both dreamed of. And that dream is for me to become one of the teachers someday. To
be one of the licensed teachers. Parents always do their best just to give us the life we wanted.
After four to five years from now, I will become a good example to everyone. I will be a
teacher to my youngers, a parent to my elder, and guides them. I already achieved our family
goals. I will view life as full of struggles but after that, there is a smile on my face that no one
can replace and remove it from me. My knowledge and experience are what makes me learn
and appreciate every problem that I encounter is for me to be better. I will make my parents
proud of me and they will tell to everyone how bad I am but still did not forget how to thank
them and never forgot where I came from. There is a story that I can tell to everyone that will
give them a lesson. It’s not too late to change. You can do what makes you happy but don’t
forget to know your limitation. Don’t forget those people who believed in you.
For me to achieve my goals I have to give my best and do what is the right thing to
do. I should not do a thing that will make me regret at last. I should think before I’ve done
such things. I should not just do the things that makes me happy for now, but I should also
think about the future on how it can affect. We are not perfect, we made mistakes, but the
best part of it is on how we will fill up our messes with the right and exact one. I should also
make a checklist to secure my plans in life, my goals. If I fails, I should stand up and fight for
it again and again until it will happen, until it will come true so that I can check my checklist.
Fighting for your dreams is a big battle in life, it is a struggle that sometimes you might want
to give up but always think about the people who believed in you.
After completing those activities in katatagan, the most favorite part of it is
recognizing my strength and weaknesses, and knowing myself better. In my part I really
don’t know my strength and weaknesses but because of the needs to recognize it for our
activity, at last I know where it is and who they are. As we go along in our activity, I realized
that there are many things that I should appreciate. Some activities help me change my
perspective in life, like the appendix L: Social Map it helps me realized that in every battle
that I encounter, I am not alone, I have those people around me who are willing to help me
every time I need there help. And when our teacher Mr. Cortezo says, “you should view the
positive side of your problem.” And that helps me realize because in hard times I just think
on negative ones, without considering the advices and the solutions that will help me with the
problem that I faced.
The changes that I want to do here in college for my college experience to improve is
to have fun while learning because there are subject that gives me a headache that I take
seriously without considering that the time is already running, with me just learning but not
having fun. And not having fun makes my college experience not memorable and I want my
stay here in Abuyog Community College to be memorable. And I want to build the stronger
me that no one can destroy. I am weak and cries in every problem that I faced especially
when my grade fails, and I don’t want to go it that way. I want to fight for it even if my fear
is presenting its presence. With the help of those people who believed in me. I will go anf
fight for it.
