Reflection

       Mrs. Evelyn Vera Cruz introduced Photoshop as our topic for this last grading. I found our topic very interesting. We have lots of activities such as, how to edit or add a color to a hair, how to apply black and white to the picture, how to use the clone stamp, how to use healing stamp tool and a lot more.

        I have a little background about Photoshop so it’s easy to accomplish those activities ma’am had given us. To make a poster or to make a cover of the graduation souvenir is our project for this grading. I’d chosen poster as my project but I found it hard to do it. Ma’am discussed only the basic so I’m not still familiar on the different tools in Photoshop. In order to accomplish my project, I’d search on YouTube how to use those different tools in Photoshop. It took me many days to finish my project but at last I made a very cool poster made and designed by me.

     Moving on, I will always remember all the things our ICT teacher had planted in me. Because I know that these things will help me in the future. 

My Dream, My Future

           I don’t like thinking too much about the future, after all we can only live in the present moment, and thus, we should focus on that. But there’s something that I’m thinking more lately, about what I will be in the future and that’s helping me to get a lot of motivation.

            As a highschool student, I have to put much thought into the future. Preparing for college takes forethought and initiative so I’ve often thought about where I would be years from now. No one can predict my future and no one can tell what will be my life in the next five years from now. There’s a possibility that I will die or there’s a possibility that I will have my own family, I just can’t tell. I always wanted to see what my life would be like in the future, what will be my career and what will my life become? As I reflected back on my childhood, I have many dreams and aspirations that I would like to accomplish in the future. In ten or twewty years, I can see myself having many goals accomplished, if not accomplished, I will be working on accomplishing thise goals to fulfill my life. I know it’s not easy to know my life in the future but I just can’t stop thinking about it.

        What am I going to become in the future? Quite a cliched question indeed, but sometimes thinking about the distant future actually drives hopeful peaople just like me to continue pushing and thriving despite the hard challenges that come our way. Nevertheless, contemplating on the future doesn’t always come easy since no one really knows if it will ever go way we think it would. But I just hope that my dream will come true, to run an art academy and to have a very happy family.

Change Starts With Me

         What’s change? In the dictionary, the definition of change is the act or an instance of making or becoming different or an alteration oou experience r modification.

         To me, change is something new and you experience changes throughout your life. It can be a good thing but it can also be bad when it is forced on you and you have no control over it. Everyone has experienced change and will experience many more in the future because change is a natural part of life. Nothing is permanent in this world except for change. Anyone can start an intiative to change by applying the words of Mahatma Gandhi: “Be the change you want to see in the world. Start by being scrupulously honest yourself if you want to see an end to corruption. Start looking at your own patterns of consumption and waste if you care about environment.

         Start but don’t stop there. Starting with you can inspire others to follow your examples. Never over-estimate your power to change others because you can’t. Never under-estimate your power to change yourself because you can.
