Scrumptious Lemonade

Image
My brother and I went to a mall last Sunday. I bought slippers for him and walk around the mall for a couple hours. We walk and see the newest things such as shoes, clothes and foods. We saw different new arrived summer clothes. After a couple of hours, we agreed to eat in a restaurant. We decided to go at “Sbarro” . I ordered two slices of Cheese Pizza, Half order of Spaghetti with tomato sauce and two of their special lemonade. The pizza has a thick layer. I was not amazed by their spaghetti, because the taste wasn’t good enough. The sauce was tasted like water colored with red. But when I first tasted the lemonade, it felt really good and awesome. Even I was disappointed by the spaghetti; the lemonade covered my emotions with happiness. I was shocked by the flavor of it that was so fruity. I can say that it was 100% fruit taste. I think that the ingredient used was a real lemon. How I wish I could make some for myself. Well, when I am having a zip to the lemonade, my body was r

Case Study: Introduction and Definition

Case study refers to the collection and presentation of detailed information about a particular participant or small group, frequently including the accounts of subjects themselves. A form of qualitative descriptive research, the case study looks intensely at an individual or small participant pool, drawing conclusions only about that participant or group and only in that specific context. Researchers do not focus on the discovery of a universal, generalizable truth, nor do they typically look for cause-effect relationships; instead, emphasis is placed on exploration and description. Case studies typically examine the interplay of all variables in order to provide as complete an understanding of an event or situation as possible. This type of comprehensive understanding is arrived at through a process known as thick description , which involves an in-depth description of the entity being evaluated, the circumstances under which it is used, the characteristics of the people involved

Jogging

Image
I started my day with a jogging. I jog around for about 1 hour starting from 6am to 7am. The weather was so refreshing; the heat was covered by a nice and smooth wind. Parents also jog around it and after a while, they play badminton to boost their stamina and burn excess fats. This jogging exercise can enhance you physically especially skeletal muscles. This muscles that are targeted with this exercise are chest, shoulder, upper and lower legs and feet. Abs can also be, in terms of breathing. Pain is necessary for starters, after a day you’ll experience extreme pain in terms of the cycle of your jogging. A running president, Nicanor Perlas, when he start to campaign as a running president here in the Philippines , he avoid to drink water after by reason of enhancing stamina. He was an athlete before, and he learned it when at the practice before the Olympics. Some teens today are not into exercise. They like to play no-sweat activities which can be a cause of certain disease

Reaction to the movie “Tatarin”

Image
Tatarin was a movie showing the discrimination between the two sexes, men and women. The men have a high power than the women because if you became a wife, then you are already been bought by the men. But the story continues, the San Juan fiesta came to change the status of the two sexes. The discrimination changes because the women give their bodies through sexual intercourse and they control men from that. My reaction to the movie is boring but I have learned something. The moral on that movie is it should not have discriminations on men and women because the two sexes must be equal by power and decision-makings. It was boring because too many sexual intercourses were made. It only shows that the movie emphasize that sex is the major target of the movie. As a viewer, we always view the point of the movie but if it was emphasizing other topics, it can affect the attentiveness of the audience. The setting and the characters was great. The effects of the sounds w

Workout

Image
Ouch my muscle aches after a day in the gym. I feel like my muscles were tearing. My left upper forearm cannot extend to its maximum range. Part of workout, is a lot of pain. I know that thousands of session should be made after I return to my slim body. I try to do biceps, triceps, chest and abdomen (abs) building. It makes me feel so much pain after that day. One factor that I consider why I am so much in pain is because of being a beginner. I try to have more of this patience and passion to workout because as I always see in the mirror, my fats are obscene. I want to have a body physically fit. With 6 packed abs on it and with different obvious muscular cuts. Some girls hate to see fat guys. They love to see muscular guys rather than stout guys. Well, working out is not easy especially if you are not dedicated to do it. Many teenagers forget about working out or playing sports. Due to the new technology, personal computers and Playstation, teens prefer to play with these rathe

Story of a Seventeen Year-Old Student Nurse

After seventeen years of my entire life, I experienced a lot of things. I experienced happiness, loneliness, being angry and frustrated and being frightened. Happy in a manner that you are doing a great job, gaining friends, learning something unique and being in-love with someone. I experienced being in-love and I always think that either I well pass or not. If I pass, I will have a girlfriend but if not, I will have a girlfriend too. So in either case, I will have a girlfriend. I always think positive when I try a risk problem in my life because I believe that trying is the best way to become happy. Last two years I tried courting a girl and finally we have been in a relationship. But we did not last forever; we just become girlfriend/boyfriend in a couple of months. When I’m with my friends and we are always discussing of what we will eat. If it pizza or not. If we eat pizza, nothings left from our money but if not, nothings left from our money too. In either case,

Religion issue - "Faith"

“Conversation of the Atheist Professor and the Christian Student” The event started everything under the sun. The conversation is all about the Atheist professor and the Christian Student. It started when the professor questions the student if he do believed in God and the student answer was yes. Then the professor questions the student if God is good and powerful and the answer was yes again. But the professor questions him that his brother died because of cancer and he asked to heal his brother but God did not do it. Therefore, the professors opinion is opposite on the answer of the student. He is not satisfied that God is good and powerful. Then, the professor talks about Satan and he is trying to tell that Satan comes from God which is a source of Evil. He tells also about the sickness, ugliness, and hatred that God created. He proved that God created curse on people. He also stated that how the student believes in God by not using his sensory perceptions. He d

Blood pressure is a measure of how hard the blood pushes against the walls of your arteries as it moves through your body. Another name for high blood pressure is hypertension.

When it rains, it pours! Global Warming Alert!

How good it was after the rain came. Sun was taken out by the rain for a couple of hours. Rainfall became the solution and the relief after suffering a white heat weekend. Everything that happens in our mother earth has a reason underneath. Just imagine the Metro Manila, Philippines had a temperature of 37 degrees Celsius, the highest temperature so far this year. We were frying to death here. Although the white dominates the Philippines , it also gives economic problem to us. The electricity and water bill were increasing. Thus, these will cause another headache to their customers. Due to the existing problem on bills payment, as customers we should utilize intelligently are resources such as water and electricity. Global Warming is increasing its effect. We need to do something to help the mother earth. Switching off the lights and electrical appliances when not in use will help a lot. Prevention of waste incineration will prevent reproduction of carbon monoxide. The use of gre

Trained Dogs are PERFECT!

Everything under the sun with the dog is simply amazing and full of memories. They are proven as a fast learners. They can learn some of the works of the individual human. As I have watch different dog shows, all I can say is they are awesome. The trainers work hard for them. Months to years were given by the trainers just to train their best friends. In my own review, trainers shall not train their dogs with brutality. Providing violence such as punching, not giving them food, and by imprisoning them without a reason. What are the tips that I can give? 1. Love them as you love your special someone 2. Provide a specific time of training (e.g. 8am - 12pm) 3. Provide nutritious food after training 4. Provide a long term planning if the dog can not learn fast 5. Daily bathing to your dog will keep him/her comfortable 6. Daily brushing of teeth to prevent tooth decay 7. Give them appropriate sleeping or nap time 8. Have the confidence to be his/her trainer 9
