El morales la observación - 5 "Do or Die"

             
Prompt: Testing one' limits, Going beyond comfort zones.


               I've tested limits, I've gone beyond my comfort zones and lived to tell the tale. How many times in your life have you not done something and regretted it. For me I've done this a few too many times. I was too afraid, too scared to take the leap and just jump. I guess i was scared of the outcome of what might happen when i jump.
               Imagine you are in a trust exercise and you will have to jump off a cliff on the assumption there is a net to catch you. I myself would've never jumped when i was younger. Now however i put my faith in God and take that leap.
               We can all relate to broken hearts, many times in my life i really like a girl but was too afraid to go and ask her to be mine. I always stood on the sidelines and just watched, i watched and watched until someone else with more faith than me took her away forever. We should never be afraid to take the leap of faith because if we don't we may never know the taste of sweet success.

El morales la observación - 4 "World Impact"

 Prompt: Resourcefulness to promote Creativity 
             

                Resourcefulness is an important trait to have when trying to survive in the real world. To be resourceful you have to be creative. We should use that creativity to help the environment and care for our mother earth. Did you know that by 2030 we will be consuming two planet’s worth of resources? We should focus on using our resourcefulness to help and heal our mother earth rather than focusing on space exploration. Did you know that we know more about our moon than our very own oceans? Our oceans have become so polluted that there is literally an island of trash floating in the middle of the Pacific Ocean.  You might think oh the ocean is so big I will never see it, why should I care?
                Imagine you weren’t a human but a fish. You are just swimming along minding your own business then out of nowhere you are being choked by those 6 pack plastic holder, you try and try to get the plastic off but it just seems to be getting tighter and tighter until you flat line dead and slowly float to the surface or be eaten by something else.

                See we must think of the other inhabitants of the earth not just what mankind needs. What may not affect you will affect you another being. So the next time you think about throwing trash on the ground think that if you do this some animal will die.

El morales la observación - 3 "A Drop"


Prompt : Resourcefulness to Preserve Mother Earth

How do we preserve mother earth? Shouldn’t we reduce, reuse, and recycle? Is one piece of trash really going to effect the environment it was thrown in? These are just some of the questions that we ask ourselves every day. The answer to this question is up to you. In my opinion we should preserve mother earth, we should reduce, reuse, and recycle, and yes one piece of trash is going to effect the outside environment. We have to preserve mother earth because it is the only home we have ever known. Every day we put more and more strain on our earth’s resources. Scarcity is going into effect and soon our earth will not be able to produce enough resources to sustain life. The polar ice caps are melting, habitats of the wildlife are being destroyed, and the greenhouse effect is slowly chewing away at our atmosphere and increasing earth’s climate. There are many plans in place to heal the damage we have caused to the Earth. Such as Recycling programs, Community clean ups, tree planting and much more. We just have to be that drop that sets the ocean in motion.

When i was a kid i was always so conscious of litter, when ever i would see litter scattered across the ground i would always clean them up. You can call me sort of a neat freak, you should see me now i'm the complete polar opposite of what i was when i was a kid.

SHS Immersion @ DreamLand 2!!!!!!



Hey Guys I went to Dreamland yesterday in Lipa, Philippines. Above are just some pictures of my adventure there, please look out for my Vlog on Dreamland.Let's just say my experience there was mediocre at best. As always "Let's have some fun!"

El morales la observación - 2 "Quant Je Puis"


Prompt : Giving my best in everything I do.

               Giving my best in everything i do is a way for me to achieve the goals I have set. Giving my best portrays a "never give up" attitude, an attitude that may inspire others to follow. When others start to follow I will gladly lead them to believing in themselves and improving their self confidence. By doing my best in something, even in times of failure I can be proud to say I did my best.  I usually say a quote in times where I feel giving up is the only option left, "When you do your best, no one can say you did not try!" this is the mantra I tend to say a lot. Most importantly I look to God for the inspiration to push myself to always do my best. I can help myself to continually doing my best by implementing the values Stonyhurst Southville International School Malarayat has given me which are the 5c's Competence, Character, Commitment to Achieve, Callaboration, and Creativity. The slogan I hold very dear to my heart is from Stonyhurst as well, which is "Quant Je Puis" or as much as I can. 

               I want to tell you guys a story when i was in grade 10. Grade 10 was the mother of all stress years since we had a PASS thesis that needed completion.

El morales la observación - 1 "Never Think You're Safe"

Value of the week: Doing things well
Prompt : How things can go wrong.


               Once, when I was grade 10 I had to go through a very dark place. At one point or another in our lives we have to go through this place. When I was a young boy I didn’t really have many friends and I was a loner. Until I came into grade 10 where I found a family. I was the happiest person ever I found a group of people who accepted me, a group of people who loved me. During this period of happiness I found a best friend, I’ve never had a best friend before. I thought to myself, “Can this year get any better”. I thought I was doing everything well until everything went terribly wrong. I had a fight with my best friend and we didn’t talk to each other for months.
             During this time I was going through depression because he was my first and only best friend ever. I learned things never go how you think they will. I did not treat this situation like I should’ve. I will always regret what happened between him and me. Since then however we seem to be doing better, he and I are friends again but I use this term loosely. I don’t think he will ever let me be his best friend again and I don’t blame him. I still miss having him always with me though. This entire situation taught me that things can go terribly wrong in an instant and you just regret everything that you have done. 
               I know we have all done things that we regret, and this situation was the one at the top of my list. I want to be completely honest with you guys i went into a deep depression, i thought about cutting myself, i thought of ending it all just for the pain to stop, i cried myself to sleep every night. I was in so much pain, I wrote poems to try and control my emotions but it just made it worse because all the poems i made was about him. This went on for a year until i started to feel better, the pain was not so painful. I tried to forget the past and look the future. That strategy worked for a while then every now and again i would get flashbacks of what happened and i would just break down crying. I'm still trying to move past what happened but i don't think i'll ever move on.


         "People say forget the past and look to the future, but without our past we have no future."
