Everyone has their own unique traits that make them who they are. There are also many psychologists that have theories of why we have the personality traits that make us who we are. It's only human that you are different from people you meet because no one is completely the same. Everyone is different in many different ways and there is nothing wrong with that. The five personality traits I chose basically describe me in a nutshell and I guarantee that no one will have the same traits with the same reasons. One personality trait that I have is that I am calm. I have never gotten into an altercation at school or at any other place for that matter. I don't get mad easily, which I think is a good thing because if I was a hot head then I would be getting into a lot of trouble. What I have noticed is that hot heads always have problems with other people that are hot heads so I'm glad that I am not a hot head. Another personality trait that I have is that I am talkative. I talk all the time especially with all my close friends. I'm always the first one who says something when there is an awkward moment in any case which I think is a good thing. But when I meet people for the very first time I don't talk as much which is shyness but when the awkward moment of meeting someone new is over then I talk more. A third personality trait that I have is caution. I'm always observing my surroundings and looking for anything that can be dangerous or harmful. My most negative quality is that I am very disorganized. If you see my room, the first thing you will notice is that it is a mess. There are books all over the table and clothes all over the floor. But that’s not all. I also don’t keep track of important information, which causes me a lot of problems. I often lose important phone numbers or email addresses. And I forget when I have to meet somebody or where I have to meet somebody.

BLOG #9- POVERTY

  

   Poverty is being sick and not being able to see a doctor. Poverty is not being able to go to school, not knowing how to read, not being able to speak properly. Poverty is not having a job, fear for the future and living one day at a time. Poverty is loosing a child to illness brought about by unclean water. Poverty is powerlessness, lack of freedom.
   Poverty has many faces, changing from place to place and across time, and has been described in many ways. Most often poverty is a situation people want to escape. So poverty is a call to action - for the poor and the wealthy alike - a call to change the world so that many more may have enough to eat, adequate shelter, access to education and protection from violence.
   Unfortunately, poverty is often an invisible problem. The voices of the poor are seldom heard. And what makes me feel like writing about poverty is the unwillingness of our society to deal with this preventable problem and how politicians who rule the country pretend that poverty is simply a given human existence - a force of nature - unstoppable and eternal.
   In fact what makes a good life? Material and physical well-being, security, freedom of choice and action - the very things that bring joy to human existence, all make a good life. It is living healthy and peaceful lives in love with no hunger; no worrying about the future of children that brings the principal pleasures of everyday life.
   Physical health, strength and appearance are of great importance to the poor. The body is poor people's main asset, but one with no insurance. If it deteriorates, hunger and destitution hover at the doorstep. Shortage of food and sickness not only cause pain, they weaken and devalue the asset, make a person highly vulnerable. Illness can plunge a household into destitution. Anguish and grief over watching loved ones die because of lack of money for health care is a silent crisis of poverty.

BLOG #8- PROCRASTINATION

 

   Procrastination means always put off things that need to be done presently. It happened to me in various aspects. I always hand in my homework just before the deadline, though I know I need to do that long time ago. When I promise my friends to do something, I usually do not do that immediately. I only do that until my friend remind me once again and again. Sometimes I get late in meetings though I have prepared enough time for myself to get ready.

BLOG 7- FACEBOOK AND TWITTER

   

People say that Facebook is for connecting with the people you went to school with and Twitter is for people you wished you had gone to school with. Facebook is multi-purpose social networking platform, allowing users to chat, post photos and notes, and play games. Twitter is built around the posting of short 140 character messages, or "tweets". They are the two most popular social networks in the world. Facebook allows users to select from various privacy settings, from a completely visible profile to one that is not even searchable except by acknowledged friends, while Twitter has two privacy settings: public and private. Private messages can only be read by people that are followed by the user. Individual messages cannot have different privacy settings. Both Facebook and Twitter are social network sites designed to allow users to connect with other users over the internet. Both Facebook and Twitter allow their users to broadcast their ideas, opinions, questions, and status blurbs

BLOG 4- PALAWAN

   This past summer was the best day of my life. Last May 9-11, 2016, I had a vacation with my auntie and uncle at Palawan. First day, we went to the Barker's hill to taste the unique food named Tamilok. After we ate, we went to the Crocodile farm and nature park to show us the different types of crocodile. The next day, we went to the Puerto Princesa, Underground River. The weather was perfect and the water inside the cave was cold. That was the first time I ride a ship. Our last day in Palawan was the best because we visit the different islands. The water was warm, and the wave was calm. It was the great day to go for a swim. After we swim, me and my aunt decided to ride a boat. I only hope that next summer can be as fun as this one.

Next, 2 eggs, 2 teaspoons of vanilla, 3 cups of flour, and 1 teaspoon of baking soda are needed. Lastly, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 2 packages or 12 ounces of semi-sweet chocolate chips are the final ingredients. These eleven things are crucial to the cookies and should be put in plain sight.
