Free Essay: The Road I walk by

As I walked the road ahead of me, I had came across something that caught my attention. A flower. I had found a flower and picked it up. As the days went by, I continued to walk the road ahead of me and I became  fond of this innocent little flower. For it brings me too much joy and happiness, but what I did not notice was its withering in my own hands. I had found a flower at the time where I do not know how to take care of it. As the flower died in my hands, I was blaming everything around me for losing it, when in fact it was I, who should be blamed for picking it up in the first place. I should have left it where it was but it was all alone. And the fear of someone might take it away one day, I just picked it up and swore to take care of it. When in fact, I do not really know how. I walked the road full of regrets. But time healed me and I began to see a new light. I have learned from my mistakes and vowed to never repeat it ever again. I have learned that mistakes are made for us to learn and grow. I have grown at last, but not at its peak. And as I continue to walk the road, a butterfly flew in front of me. Once again it caught my attention. I was astonished by its beauty so I followed it for awhile. I will not catch it for it might die in my hands again. This time I will wait for it. I will wait for it to fly beside me as I walk along the road ahead of me. And when that time comes, I will show a future brighter than the flowers it used to see. For this little beautiful butterfly, now means a lot to me.

Free Essay: A Picture of You

How long do you think a picture will last?
A photo of you may be taken every time with a camera. Whether it is a memory to be captured, or taken in with the spur of the moment. But nonetheless, it is something that reminds you of the memories of the moment. With just a look of that photo, a nostalgic feeling wraps around you which will leave you reminiscing. But just like how some memories can be somehow forgotten with time, how long will a picture full of memories last? Even if you keep it hidden away somewhere safe and sound, will it still last? A day will come where you will leave the face of the earth. And you will remain in the minds of those close to you or those who know you whether by name or personality. Maybe you will have photos of you, which will remind them of their times together with you. But will those memories of you be passed on? Maybe not. No matter what we do, the time will come where the human civilization will eventually come to an end. And the face of the earth will once again be cleared for a new kind of species to dominate it. But if maybe, there is ever a chance, they will build a new civilization once again, and hopefully, as they search far and wide throughout the world we once lived in, they will eventually come across a certain item that will leave them in question. A certain item that will serve as a proof that you had once walked the same earth as them. A proof that says, "I was once here", and that proof itself, will be the picture of you.

Speech: Just be Yourself.

There are times where you should just do it and not think too much about it. Yes, people may criticize or judge you. There might be also be times where they will make fun of you. But let them be. It is your life and not theirs. Never be afraid to do what you want for it is your own desire and decision to do so. If they ever laugh at you, then laugh it off with them, and if they ever bring you down, just lift yourself up. You do not have to listen to what they think about you, for no one knows you better than yourself. Maybe there will be times where you just can not take it anymore, but that is not a sign to stop getting up. Rest for a while, after that, come back to the field with head up high, standing tall and proud. Never stay in the shadows of others, instead, try and walk beside them and create a shadow of your own. We are all born in our own time and day. You do not need to pretend someone you are not. Let your ways be seen, and your thoughts inspire. Let your words be heard, and your name be engraved in the memory of others. Just be yourself and make a name out of it. And always keep in mind that in this world we live in, no matter what you do or where you are, people will judge you. I know it is frightening, but it is better than living a life of regret. Live your life the way you want to, and just be yourself.

Mikan Balls of Happiness

At my stay at National College of Business and Arts in Fairview, I have discovered something that brought me relaxation not just to my mind, but also to my appetite. Every day around 5pm-- the time I usually go home from school, instead looking for a ride home, I first proceed to a certain spot near the convenience store called, 7-Eleven. The spot I always look forward to whenever I go home after a tiring day from school works. As I reach that spot, I always approach a certain cart where a lady and her daughter manages. The cart that sells the a delicacy called, Kwek-kwek. The orange balls that has two sizes to choose from-- a big one and a small one. I quickly grab a bowl and picking out which one to eat first, and after that, you can make your mixture of taste with the different toppings and sauce. Just remembering it whets my appetite. I could eat as many as I can all day if I could, but it is saddening to think that I do not have the budget to do so. But if I ever get a chance to eat those orange balls as much as I can, then I won't stop until I drop. It has cured my hunger for who knows how long, and had now become a part of my daily routine in my life at NCBA.

Bio: A New Light

Childhood has always been the most unforgettable moment of a person's life. The innocent smiles, The joyful laughs, The painful innocent cries, and the loud little footsteps running around the streets. It all feels so nostalgic as you look at the streets and playground you used to go to as a child. I used to always try and escape from home in the afternoon just to look for my friends and play with them. I lived inside a home where the majority are females. So, being the only boy around the house, I always felt out of place. So, I try every little thing just to get out of the house even if I know the consequences at the end of the day. I always get into fights with kids my age that time. And whenever I go home with bruises or none, I always get beaten up by my Mom. Even if I was just protecting myself or my friend, I always got scolded. I grew up living with that kind of cycle. I get into fights, I also get into trouble at home. It's not like I grew up as a violent child, some people just kind of get into your nerves. I just learned to protect myself or the people close to me. I got into high school and slowly changed. I found my first love at that time. Now that I think about it, my high school life revolved around that girl. For 3 years we had been together, but I guess not everything goes as you wish it would. So we eventually broke up when I went to college. I was thrown into depression at that time, I lost all motivation and my inspiration. There were times where I thought of suicide. But my Family and friends kept on cutting the rope. I was taking Electrical Engineering at FEU back then. I was also a scholar, but I just wasted it. I shifted to another course-- I.T. With specialization in Animation and Game Development. I shifted to that course hoping I would regain my motivation in studying. But I was wrong. I still could not get myself to be motivated. I was so lost in thought that time that I almost gave up with my life. But my Father held me at the darkest of my times. He wants to give me another push. My Father is giving me another chance to move forward. The person I failed the most is giving me another chance. It was the second time I cried so hard after my previous heart break. He showed me another ray of light to follow. And that is how I got here. I am now a student of National College of Business and Arts taking the course of Bachelor in Arts major in English (A.B. English) and now at my 3rd year. I have found a new light in here. Friends who got my back, a goal to reach, and just recently, I have fallen to another girl again after 3 years. A new inspiration in life for me, also my goal and motivation for the future. I may have fallen inside a dark tunnel where I could not find a ray of light nor a way to walk by. But those who are close to me, especially my Family, carved another way for me. I have seen the light once again, and this time, I am not going to repeat the mistakes I have made back then. I was raised to learn to stand my ground, and I will be standing still from now.
