13 - Becoming to curious about the world

"Curiosity on People today"

People today are known for discovering many things, because of their curiosity. Curiosity is a way for us people to learn new things or adapt. It is because of being curious it made us modern right now. If humans back didn't become curious who knows what could we have been today?

Sometimes being curious can be good and bad. Like smoking and taking drugs is a bad way of curiosity, but knowing news from all over the world or researching about some news today is a good example. It depends on how we use our curiosity, but really curiosity just happens or just works at quickest time possible. So it is inevitable to become curious about something, especially if something is related to you, your friends, family, etc. you won't even hesitate to become curious about it. Some can stop themselves, but a lot of people can't really handle wanting to find the answers they want.

Today corruption, terrorism, rights, etc. are being reported in news everyday. Now we, the people who can make a difference can obviously make a difference just by being curious. If we do get curious let other people know, because the tendency is they will become curious and thus making people know more about the news today really is.

"Curiosity" the Rover sent to Mars to lean more about the planet.

12 - Certain Taste in Games

"Kinds of Games you play"

The games I play are well, unique. Like all of the humans all over the world, we have our likes and dislikes in everything. We have the freedom to choose whatever to like or dislike.

The games I like to play are Real-Time Strategy, Fiction, Historical, Sci-Fi, First Person shooter, or Third person shooter games. These games interests me, because of what I've learned in my past years. For example Assassin's Creed 3, tells us about the American Revolution. It's historical places, person, documents, etc. It makes me curious and surprised of what happened in it's game, and sometimes it makes us feel that we are there experiencing the history of that certain country. In short, I want to learn and experience the history I have learned or yet to be learned.

I sometimes play musical games, or MOBA (Massive Online Battle Arena), in those games I feel like I want to be competitive. Just like in School Idol Festival, I don't only play because I watched the anime of it or like very much. I played it, because I want to better at it and be competitive with it. I have the will to compete knowing that I will sometimes lose, but in those loses I become better on it. And the better I play the better the chance that I can win.

I play these games, because it is my passion and my forte. I become more immersed in games like these, and no I don't like these games. I love it.

11 - Living the Life

“Describe your concept of luxury.”

            If it’s my luxury we are going to talk about then it’s probably...

I’d be living in a condominium in either Japan or Singapore that is in a tower with swimming pools, in a pure white rooms. With rooms like a work space, office, and anime collection room. Lots of Figures and Model Kits from Japan that is stored in cabinets in a room.

The furniture would be simple that it complements to the rooms appearance. The furniture will be complete in dining rooms, bedroom, living room, etc. Of course my PC with very high specs so I can play whatever I want, with 3 monitors for multitasking. A complete of tools for my hobby of Gunpla building would be really cool and eventually make join Gunpla building competitions.

And for my family I want them to living in a huge villa somewhere in Batangas near the Taal Lake, the lake brings us so much memories of happy times. With a ton of cars and a boat to sail to the lake Taal.            

But my concept of luxury isn’t just all stuff, some are my achievements and careers. For example being a successful game developer or a champion in a Gunpla building competition. Luxury isn’t given to, it’s earned by working very hard in a job. Especially being given an inspiration to strive to have the luxury you want. It’s not all for yourself actually, the luxury. It’s meant for your family that helped become who you are they are the reason you had to strive for your luxury. So be thankful to them

10 - Life Matters... a lot

“Smoking in APC”

                Smoking, it really gives us nothing. Yeah sure they take our money, and health. Surely Smoking can be addictive once you started to do it. A lot of people already had problems with it and the worst part is they can’t stop even knowing they are going to die early.
                Can’t they think of an alternative like chewing gum? Chewing gum can actually help us with processing minds. But smoking never helps us, it just kills and ruins lives.

                To teenagers smoking looks ‘cool’ and it make teenagers look mature. It is not make a person’s appearance more appealing, it actually makes them look like they are forcing themselves to be appealing when they are not.

                Or people smoke because they want to escape their problems. Well it doesn’t help them, but it makes them worse. To fix their problems they must face it head-on to fix it.

                The risks of smoking are too much to handle, so if u start smoking you will probably end up with lots of problems in the future too. We really can’t stop smoking here in APC. Because it’s mainly their choice. The only way is to prevent others that does not smoke. They need to realize that smoking is the way to fix your problems or become ‘cool’. Those that were prevented might change the ones who smoke to stop smoking and start caring about your own life and of other’s lives too.

                With this method we can assure that it reduce the smoking, and in that we can actually save lives with it.
                The lives of humans matters not in you but in others as well. God gave us the power to think and life. So let us cherish his gifts by caring our as a healthy person. 

9 - Heroism in Modern Age

"Bayani ba to? Heroism for Millennials" 

I've been enlightened with the speaker’s view of heroes as a normal beings with normal hobbies and lives like us today. And as a teenager in this generation I am intrigued with what I can do to help this country. Hero's then really wanted to help the country to be free, they studied in different countries, and they became very intellectual beings. 

Even though what they were talking about is to guilt trip us and cliché words, they made good points about heroism today. You never really needed to be special to be a hero you just need to be yourself and have a goal to help our country. 

The most notifiable figure is General Luna, he was an ordinary man then with a passion to free the Filipinos but ended up getting killed by his own countrymen the Filipinos. He was a Doctor and a Scientist that studied abroad in popular universities. But even with all that achievement overseas he still came back to the Philippines and backed up Philippines as its best general in Philippine history.

The story about Heroes are sometimes very ironic too, because of their ideals for their people. The ideals of the heroes are sometimes disliked by the masses that they think that it’ll ruin them. This leads to the death of many heroes of our past.

I’ll admit it that peaceful ways can definitely help us to avert violence for more peace for the country, but when they start killing innocent people don’t even hesitate to gather our armies and take our vengeance against them.

To conclude this speech, sometimes it’s necessary for lives to be taken if it’s for the greater good and even though it may be cruel, you cannot save lives if can’t take others live. And finally you cannot be a hero if you can’t even save yourself.

 Heroism today is very rare for some people, but we can actually be a hero in our little way. As I watched the trailer, preview, and the speech regarding the meaning of heroism today and back then.
