XV - APC ANTI-SMOKING CAMPAIGN

Cigarettes are the material that is being used for smoking. As said to Merriam-Webster Dictionary, cigarette is a slender roll cut of tobacco enclosed in paper and meant to be smoked; also a similar roll of another substance (as marijuana). Smoking of cigarettes are the most common we see everywhere, mostly here in Philippines. There’s a lot of smoker that you can see wherever you may go. Maybe some of us are allergic to the smoke that has been exhaled by other people or the smoker itself.

Well, do we really know what is a head for you when you are a smoker? Lung Cancer. Yes, lung cancer. Because the nicotine will stick inside your lungs. Or let's just say, you're burning your own lungs.

XII - THESIS WRITING

I just want to share my thesis topic that have been approved by my prof. Though you may think this is just a little crap of shit. I don't care because this is the first time that I will make my own thesis. Because back in highschool, we also have a thesis project. But it's by group, so I don't give attention to it because I know to myself that I have my groupmates. Hey, I help and contribute to that thesis okay? Hahaha. But this thing, this is the first time that I will work for my own.

TOPIC:   Surgery

NARROWED TOPIC:   Cosmetic Surgery

                 It can increase your marketability appearance
                  It can help you to get a suitable partner

XI - WHAT MAKES SOMEONE A HERO?

Superman? Batman? Spiderman? Iron Man? Thor? Is this the people who we called a hero? Or maybe they are not the only one who we can call a hero. 

Well, what does the really meaning of being a hero? Hero is someone who's not afraid to step and correct what is wrong. A hero who will fight for what is right regardless of the situation. A hero will not even think of the consequences. All he or she knows is to help and fight for the others. A hero contains a lot of positive perspectives.

Anyone can be a hero. But being a hero is the someone who deserve for call him or her a hero. Because as we all know we consider being our National Hero is Jose Rizal for his a lot of contributions he have done for our country. He fight for so long to defend our country from the Spaniards who wants to steal our own country. Jose Rizal fights for the absurdity of the Spaniards. The Spaniards who call us Filipino a "mangmang". 

We, Filipinos can also be a hero. For a simple good deeds we can be a hero. For saving a cat or dog who's almost crash by an approaching car. For guiding the elders to cross by the passenger street. For helping others who are in need. 

Mostly we look to our parents as our hero. Because they never failed to guide us whenever we go. They never let us to hurt by someone. They teach us to learn how to stand up for our own when we tripped. Because they want us to be strong and confident. They never failed to let us feel how they really love us. Ever since when we're still in our mother's womb, they always look after us. They want to us to grow healthy, strong, smart, and kind.

I call my parents for being a hero because I know they always work hard for us. Mostly for me who's still studying in college. And my younger sister who's still a baby. They want us to give a good life and a good education. I see how they work so hard to give all what we need. Although they are so tired from work, they never let us feel that we are dead weight even though we are so hard headed.

Everyone of us has their own freedom. A freedom to act. A freedom to speak. Because all of us has their freedom. And we should use it for the right way. 

X - SOSCIT WEEK

As the SOSCIT week opened last July 28, 2015 there a lots of activities happened mostly for the field of SOSCIT. I remember as we officially open the SOSCIT Week, the Mr. and Ms. SOSCIT contestants had their opening walk along the parking lot. And there was this competition held for all of the field of SOSCIT and this was the Banner Contest and the theme was "Take It Back". The next day, there was this activity mostly for the freshmen of SOSCIT. I guess we all know the popular game of "Fame or Shame". There a lots of students performed in many different kinds of talent they want. Oh, almost I forgot, also within the day, we had our IT Quiz. Obviously it's all about IT Concepts.

July 30 came, this is the most awaiting event for all time. The Mr. and Ms. SOSCIT 2015. Actually, I'm one of the contestants here in this pageant but unfortunately, I didn't won. But atleast, there a lots of good memories and awesome experience with the people who's also one of the pageant and the organizers ofcourse. Though, it might be a little expensive to join a pageant, atleast it will be so unforgettable moment for all of us.



July 31 has came, the end of SOSCIT week. Though I was not in the last day of SOSCIT Week, I know that every each of us had a great time within that day. They had their Color Run, and I guess most of you know what it is. And for the computer gamers, they had a LOL Competition. And lastly, the event of the night is the SOSCIT Night. They had a guest bands. Actually, that time I was on the Facebook chat with my blockmate. Asking if how it goes the SOSCIT Night. And he said that we should come that time because there are so very few people are there by that time. So the organizers decided that instead that it's only for SOSCIT students, they opened it to all courses. And as time goes by, he's sending me a lot of pictures that they really having a great time. It was like a party inside a cafeteria. Where there a lot of people who are dancing, singing, jumping, taking selfies, and so fort.

And as I summarize my journey for the SOSCIT Week. Though it may be a little tough for me because of excuses in classes because of the practices. I never let myself to left behind. And becasue of this, I met a lot of great people who I can get along with. And ofcourse those new friends that I met too. Oh ofcourse, I will never forget that time that I was getting crazy because of the ice cream in cafeteria. And as my journey continues, I know that this is not yet the end and I know that there a lot of problems ahead that I must face and I should remember that this is just a stepping stone for my journey to success. As an IT student, I must work and study hard to accomplish what I really want.

IX - PARTY PLAYLISTS

Party Playlists? What is Party Playlists? 

Party Playlists is another called for upbeat musics and remix musics.

Recently, while I'm spending may long weekend at my homie in Cainta Area. I was just staying in the room all day and all night long. I don't know why? Maybe I just want to rest and finish some requirements. And so, when I was just locking myself inside the room. I saw a bluetooth speaker from my sister's cabinet. And it's like someone suddenly whisper at my ear and said, "you're too boring". So, I was scanning my laptop to see some musics. I saw a song titled "3 Hours of Best Trap Music 2014" and I tried to see if it was good. And as hours goes by, I never thought that I was so into it. 

So, as I sleep until I woke up all I want to hear is trap musics. And until now, as I'm doing my blog for this, I was just listening to trap musics. Not because I'm a party girl or what. It's only because I love the beat of the music and it's my jam! So who cares? Well, try to listen some trap musics to test yourself.  You're the one to judge!

(try this music. this is from the ost of Fast and Furious 7)

VIII - MR. AND MS. SoSCIT JOURNEY

I thought joining and being part of the SoSCIT Pageant is so very tough. Not only because it's a competition of beauty and brain. But also because of a lot of things need to buy and need to do, for short, it's so very expensive being a part of a pageant.

Ate Angela, Keano, Gio, Vovic, Ate Nadeth

But as I'm joining the pageant of SOSCIT week at my school in Asia Pacific College, I learned a lot of things and of course, I met new people. For thinking that it's full of competition and war, well I was wrong. As the days and week goes by.. After of orientation and 2 photoshoots have passed, little by little, we are already in the stage of knowing each other and being comfortable. Not only for the contestants, but also for the staffs and the people behind that event.

As usual, the first people that I got comfortable with are the boys. Gio, Keano, and Vovic. Of course Kayla is already exempted there because we're from the same block not like the other competitors or contestants.

Ate Angela, one of the organizers of the event, created a group in Facebook. And Keano who's the one who started to make "Hugot Banat" there. And of course everyone makes their own "hugot". Well, it's fun tho'. I know it's been a long journey for us. To enjoy, to get to know each other, to share our sides, and more that we can enjoy ourselves each other. And I hope after the competition, there still the happiness in our face, "no kalimutan 'till the end".

VII - THAT TYPHOON THO'

This week because of the typhoon, there's a lot of suspensions that came up. And because I'm just staying in the dormitory at the 9th floor of the campus, I don't know if I should go home already or not. Because actually the suspensions of classes are so "paasa".

Well, I'm doing nothing here in the dormitory. Maybe I'm just kind of a little reproductive here this week. I've done a lot of homeworks and requirements. And I'm so very proud of that! Other than that, midterms are fastly approaching. It's kind of a little tense to me, because it's still not sinking in my mind that I'm already a college student. There's always a lot of questions that still keep bothering me. "What should I do?", "Will I pass the midterm exam?", "Will I get a high grade?", "What if I failed the midterm exam? What will I do now?". I don't know where to start. I still keep thinking that I'm still a highschool student though it's not.

Because of the typhoon, it gives me a lot of time to think and to refresh my mind. But of course, I'm still thinking the safeness of everyone. Well, there are still some people who still make everyone happy. I saw a picture that was edited by a student of my school (Asia Pacific College). And it gives me a lot of craziness and weirdoness but honestly it's kinda true.

VI - HEALTHY AND FIT BODY

A general state of health, well-being and generally achieved through correct nutrition, moderate-vigorous physical activity, exercise and rest. It is a set of attributes or characteristics seen in people and which relate to the ability to perform a given set of physical activities.

For some tips and knowledge about having a healthy and fit body. First, I would like to share from what I learned from my friend from Spain who is a physical therapist. He said that if you’re doing a jogging routine, it must be on the morning before you eat breakfast so that it well burn your fats from what you ate yesterday. And for the breakfast meal, that’s the only time that you will eat rice. And after 12nn no eating of carbohydrated foods.

If you only do 4 things to boost health, what should you do?

1.         Daily Exercise – get atleast 30mins of exercise everyday. You've got lots of options: walking, jogging, biking, rowing machine, elliptical machine, swimming. Walking is great exercise. You'll get a bonus -- relaxation and stress reduction.

2.    Healthy Diet - quit eating junk food and high-fat fast food.  Replace them with healthy foods: lots of fruits, vegetables, fish, nuts, olive oil - what we call the Mediterranean diet. Eat like an Italian, a Spaniard, and a Greek! 

3.    Weight Loss - when you take in more calories than you burn, you get fat. You've got to eat less. You've got to exercise more. You've got to push yourself to make these lifestyle changes.

4.   Confidence - respect yourself, no matter what body type you are. When you're looking in the mirror, focus on your good features, give yourself some compliments. If you respect yourself and your body, you are less likely to engage in unhealthy activities.

In conclusion, in terms of having a healthy and fit body. You must respect and love yourself, So you can achieve what you're goal is. You must have a discipline in terms of eating. Healthy food and balance diet is a must!  

V - HAVING COSMETIC SURGERY IS A BIG DEAL?

We all know that performing cosmetic surgery is a very big booming in whole world wide! 

Some people said that it's bad thing to have this kind of surgery. But does anyone of you know what's the background of Cosmetic Surgery?

Well, cosmetic surgery aims to improve the appearance of a person. Which the person chooses to have. Which is done to remove any kind of blemishes from your body. And it also said that it helps you to look more better.

Based on my research according to the statistics for performing of surgical and nonsurgical cosmetics. ISAPS or International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery said that according to their latest survey (2013). More than 23 million nonsurgical and surgical cosmetic performed this 2013 worldwide. 11,599,336 surgical procedures performed and 11,874,937 nonsurgical procedures performed. And it tells that 87.2% of women performed nonsurgical or surgical procedures than men who only got 12.8% nonsurgical and surgical procedures. It proven that women are more addictive or vain with their selves.

There are 5 Countries who's popular when it comes to Cosmetic Surgery.

1.    SOUTH KOREA - 20% of women in Seoul had their surgery and the most popular surgical     

                                        procedures were eyelid surgeries, nose jobs, and liposuction.

2.   GREECE - this county is very well known because of the cheaper price of their procedures. It said 

                          that "the advance of technology in less cost is made". And the most popular surgical 

                          procedures here are breast augmentation and penis enlargement. They said that 

                          approximately 10x than the average)

3.   ITALY - it's the central of plastic surgery where they toldthat it can hide the signs of aging. And 

                     the popular procedures here are botox, injectable fillers, and liposuction.

4.   BRAZIL - in this country, the cosmetic surgery was very legalized by the government that's why it 

                        becomes the economical job of the country. And the twist here, that's why Brazilian 

                        people were so very hot and sexy. We don't know that it's only because of the surgical 

                        procedures. And the most popular here are breast implants and liposuction.

5.   COLUMBIA - it's the most preferred medical tourist center, But, there are still some undoubtedly 

                               safe, cannot be said for all areas in the country are safe. And the most popular 

                               procedure here is liposuction.

So, it proven that cosmetic surgery is a very big trend in the whole wide world. As for me, being a Christian, and as a princess and daughter of God. If you really appreciate and love what has been given to you, you will not demand for anything. Because God have His own purpose why He gave that to you, to us. They said that, having cosmetic surgery can boost your confidence throughout your whole life. But for me, the real confidence is the real beauty. If we do not know, having surgical procedures takes so many risks in our lives. There was a piece of news many years ago; a girl who accepted plastic surgery and had an accident during her surgery, and then she died. 

In conclusion, there are many disadvantages of having plastic/cosmetic surgery; the most efficient method to become more beautiful is learning how to love ourselves and accepting all of ourselves. Every natural action is graceful. We just keep our original appearance which is given beyond our beloved parents and learn to develop our inner beauty.

Don't live in a plastic world. You're not a plastic!
