FACING THE TRUTH

       Truth. A word that causes hurt, sadness and anger. This quote here “Face the truth or the truth will face you” by Mehmet Murat ildan, means that you need to be brave enough to face the truth because if not, the truth will destroy something precious in your life, like your family or your dignity or you motivation. It is better to adjust in the truth or live life in lies.

       Facing the truth is like picking a very beautiful flower with  sharp thorns, without using gloves. You know why I compare it? It is because the truth hurts. Like when you're boyfriend tells you he doesn't like you anymore you're so fat and ugly. but it's better that way, because he is giving you another chance to fall in love again. The Truth hurts, at first. Facing the truth now won't be the end of the world right?

 

        

         Also, not all people are honest right?So, there would be pretty little liars in the world. But, please remember, the truth often hurts, but be strong.

Character in Success

     Success. Another word for accomplishment of one's goals. The attainment of wealth, position, honors, or the like. And obsolete. "Character is the real foundation of all worthwhile success" by John Hays Hammond means that if you have a bad attitude, you cannot have real success. What is real success? If you'd ask, it is when you are successful, you are also happy and other people beside you are also happy. and also, you know that what you are doing is the right thing to do.

    As a student, having a great character leads you to accomplishments. Achievements that shape your mind and knowledge that ease it. If you are a successor, and you have a bad attitude, what's the use of that success. Isn't it worthless? 

     

As for the young ones that is yet starting to school, don't hate it. Love it!

EDUCATION

      Education. It is a gift that will never be taken away. The saying "Education is the key to success" by Solomon Ortiz means that having education is the road to your triumph. Every one must be given a time to be educated because you will become civilized and you can have a decent job. Having a degree in education is always beared in mind and have a mark in your heart.

         As a student, to be educated is a gift. Because you have the knowledge of the basic necessities of life and have information of what is good and right. What I understand in Education is the key to success is that if you have educated, you will be lead to success.

 

Dreams

          Dreams. They are the ones you want to have and you want to be. Dreams are foundation in having determination to succeed in life. The saying "Dreams are like stars... you may never touch them, but if you follow them, they will lead you to your destiny" by Anonymous, means that if you are to follow your dreams, they will you to your fate. A simple saying that means a lot. Every people has dreams. Dreams that are almost impossible to achieve and Dreams that aren't. But nothing is impossible if you believe. Believe that you can accomplish them.

 

           For me, dreaming is one of the most amazing things you could do. But not overdo it. Following your dreams is also a good thing because, it will lead you to your destiny. Dreaming is not always about fantasies, like unicorns and fairies, it is also about what you want. Like this, I want to be successful in life. Graduate. Have a great job. Have a boyfriend, wait, lets just stop at that. And as for the sake of others, dreaming is like  roaming in outer space, there are no boundaries. 

            Also, for young readers, don't ever stop dreaming. They will lead you to a wonderful life.

BE KIND TO PEOPLE

 Attitude is a component of each person. It builds up the structure of a person’s background. The saying “Be nice to people on your way up because you’ll meet them on your way down” by Wilson Mizner means that in each of our achievements or goals that we have succeeded, people will look up to us and we should be kind to them because when we endure our own failure, the people will also be kind to us and help us.

     My personal experience on this saying was when school started. I had an annoying seatmate that would bother me all the time. He would ask a lot of questions. I, on the other hand, am very short-tempered so one time I got full so I told him to shut up because he is very annoying. Then, Keinly, my classmate, told me that Charles would always say, “Kiana will pass the test” or “Kiana is intelligent”. So, by hearing this, I felt so sorry, a person who I dislike would do these things to me. Also, one time, I forgot almost everything teacher wants us to bring. Without asking, he lends me some of his. So, thank you so much Charles and sorry.

Cause of happiness

         Happiness is a feeling of joy towards something. Joy that is made by people who loves to give happiness. People almost gets happy most of the time. May it be be because of small things or big things, name it. The saying "Action may not always bring happiness; but there is no happiness without action." by Benjamin Disraeli states that happiness doesn't always come from actions but happiness cannot be made without actions. Benjamin Disraeli is a great poet. He made a lot of quotes. He is one of my favorite poets.

    I am always happy, because of my family. Especially when mom gives me presents and when my little sister kiss me goodbye for school. Or when my crush's eyes meet mine. That are one of the sources of my happiness.

THE CARTOON CHARACTER IN ME

       Totally Spies is a cartoon about 3 high school students who were recruited a spies. Clover, Alex and Sam. Clover is a flaunt- er. She flirts to every cute or handsome boy she sees. She loves shopping. Alex is kinda like a random. She's industrious. Yet, she is also like  Clover and sometimes like Sam. Sam is an intelligent girl, she might not be as beautiful as Clover or as industrious as 

Alex, but they are the cartoon characters I wanna be.

        I were a cartoon character, I would be them Three. I do know that it is impossible, but I know it is possible to copy their traits. I would be Sam because, I wanna feel how to be one of the most intelligent student in the school. I wanna be recognized. And enter in one of the most hardest contests in the country.

          I also want to be Alex because she is industrious and I am lazy, She gives me inspiration to manage my tasks in the best way I can.

         I also wanna be Clover, she might be a flaunt-er, but for me, even if i need to study hard, she reminds me to experience the fondness of having the time of my life. I also keep in mind that I will Not be serious in my relationships unless I found my Soul mate.

         Overall, I want to be industrious and intelligent yet somehow a flaunt-er-like girl. Like them three, I wanna be with best friends who will be with me even in times of trouble. 

MY KIND OF ANIMAL

                    Swans are magnificent creatures made by God. They have white feathers and awesome swimming habit. Their body movements are also gracious. Their body young are not as beautiful as them, but as they are growing up, they are transforming to their true self.
                   
                     If I were an animal, I would be a young swan. At this stage, I am learning how to become an adult. But before this, I am experiencing a lot of challenges and temptations. Yet, never look on the negative side. Because this problems help you to become your true self. Problems are there for a reason. It is a guide to which road you'll take, left or right.

                    When I become an adult, I will transform to my true self. But, as I said earlier, I will not become magnificent if I can't learn from my mistakes.
