16. Blackberry smartphone

Almost 1 year ago, I am thinking of what cellphone to buy. I searched in the internet and found out the Blackberry phones. Blackberry is not yet common during those days so I decided to buy that kind of phone. The unit of my Blackberry is the Torch 9810. So why did I chose this kind of phone except the fact that it is not yet common during that time?

My father bought this phone of mine in Saudi Arabia because it is said that gadgets at Saudi is cheaper than gadgets here in the Philippines. I consider my phone to be important to me because I'm using it everyday. It helps me to manage my time and schedule. Using this kind of phone gives a lot of advantages for me. My phone have an application called the Blackberry Messenger wherein I can chat and make a call with other Blackberry users for free. The camera of my phone is clear. It contains applications like twitter, facebook, youtube and many more such as games where you can download in the Blackberry App World. My phone also serves as my music player. Whenever I'm in the bus I always listen to it by using my earphones. I don't know what to do if I'd lost my phone. I got used of using it since the day that I had it.

Having a mobile phone means that you are in style. That's what technology is for people right now. Blackberry is a unique phone that gives many advantages for its users. I'll make sure that I'll take care of it and won't lose it.

15. Photography

Our nature is one of the most beautiful things I've seen in my life. Every time I see sunset or even beautiful clouds of scenery, I always take a photo of it. Pictures are the ones who give remembrance to the memorable events in our life. For example, A birthday party or a concert. So why do I love taking pictures?

Recently, I got my DSLR camera which is the Nikon D3100. Since then, I started taking a lot of pictures especially when I'm with my cousins. Photography is one of my passion. I love taking pictures simply because I find things great and awesome. Little things matters even it's just a single petal of flower as long as I find it beautiful. I show my creativity through capturing photos. In a memorable event, I'm also fond of taking pictures to capture the moments that are shared with each person. If you want to browse some of the memories from the past, you can just take a look at the pictures captured from it. As a freelance photographer, I'd like to travel to places like Paris, Japan, Palawan, Ilocos and many more. I just love the feeling that there would be a lot of photos when I go to those places.

Sometimes seeing pictures of the one you love makes you smile. Isn't it? That's what I like in taking pictures. Photography really matters and it's great to know that it's still improving as time goes by. If you don't appreciate things easily, you cannot be a photographer. 

14. Korean Pop Music

What type of music do you prefer? Well me, I prefer OPM songs and KPOP songs. My question is, how is a kpop song became famous around the world? Just like Psy's Gangnam Style. Even Americans dances it too even if they don't understand it's lyrics. Honestly, I myself too like kpop. Why do I like them?

I am a die hard fan of bigbang and 2ne1. Those two groups are part of the Korean pop music. I don't know what made me addicted to them. All I know is their songs are amazing even though I don't understand the lyrics. Big Bang is formed of 5 members namely G-Dragon, TOP, Taeyang, Daesung, and Seungri. Those boys are really stunning! They can perform amazingly on stage during their concerts because I always watch some of the videos from their concerts. Another korean pop music group is the 2NE1 (to anyone). Their group is made of four beautiful ladies namely CL, Park Bom, Sandara Park, and Minzy. Hey also have songs that makes me sing even though I don't say the words correctly. These two groups mean a lot to me. I adore them and their songs because they're both awesome.

Listening to kpop is not bad. Others say it is because it sounds corny or jeje but for me it's not. They do not know how to appreciate music. What's important about a song is to enjoy it even if it doesn't have lyrics or you don't understand its lyrics.

13. Japanese and korean drama/movie

Why is Korean/Japanese drama and movie is too mainstream? For me, they really have good stories in which the viewers are drawn to. What are some of the shows that I was addicted to? There are so many to mention but I'll tell you some of the drama/movie that I watched.

(Koizora The Movie - Japanese)

(My girlfriend is a gumiho - Korean Drama)

(City Hunter - Korean Drama)

Actually, I'm really not interested in watching there kind of shows until one day I watched the Japanese movie entitled "Koizora". It made me cry even if the movie doesn't have subtitles. It was 5 years ago and when I watched the update of the movie with subtitles, it made me cry even more. Next is a Korean drama entitled "My girlfriend is a gumiho". The story of this drama runs with a weird girl which is a fox and at the same time, a human. I find it interesting because the boy fell in love unexpectedly with the girl that he's annoyed at in the first place. And the last but not the least is another Korean drama entitled "City Hunter". City Hunter is starring the famous Korean actor named Lee Min Ho. He's so handsome! Lol. But seriously, I do love this drama so much because of it's great story plot. He was a spy and detective and at the same time, a lover of a girl that he's been protecting all the time.

Japanese and Korean dramas/movies are famous because they really have a good story plots that pulls out the emotion of the one who's watching. It's not boring but it's interesting and addictive. Until now I'm watching those kind of shows because I already became a fan of it. Most of the Korean/Japanese drama/movie that  I have watched was a Romance. It is one of the reasons why people tend to watch this kind of shows. So if you don't experience yet watching those shows, try to watch and I'm sure you'll not regret it.

12. When I was a child

Do you know that feeling when you just want to be a child again to escape all the stress that you're having in your life right now? Most of the time I'm like that. All I want is to be happy, no stress, no problems. But as time pass by, we can't be relax and chill. We have some things to do or the things that we're obliged to do. And because of that, all I can do is just reminisce of my childhood memories.

Since high school started, my whole life changed. I experienced having failing grades, and even bad grade in my conduct. Others said that I am influenced by other persons but for me, I myself was the one who's wrong for letting myself do things that are not good. When I was a child, all I do is to play with my cousins. I'm expressive when it comes to my emotions, now I'm not. Whenever we go to malls, I always want to play in a kiddie arcade or sometimes go to rides. I'm not stressed because all I think about is to play and school works are not hard during that time compared to now. I miss those times where I'm not stressed as I am now. If only I could turn back time, I would definitely do it. And I'm always wondering, if I could go back to the times where I'm still a child, what would I change to make my life better as what I have now? Isn't it interesting?

Now that I'm a teenager, I realized that there are many things in life that a child doesn't know. Even the simplest things like how to solve an algebraic equation. The hardest part is the managing of time, it's hard and that's what I'm experiencing right now. I'm hoping that all my stress will vanish and just become a child again so I could enjoy life and replace all the mistakes that I've done into things that are good. To all the kids out there, don't waste your time because one day, you'll know how I feel today and wish too about becoming a child again.

11. First debut of a friend that I attented

Normally, girls who are in the age of 18 are the ones who celebrates debut. Well not all but majority are. They say that having a debut is so expensive but it's worth it because of the memories that will be remembered. Family and friends will be the ones to celebrate it with. So until now I'm thinking if I'm going to celebrate a debut on my 18th birthday.

Last April 6, 2013, my close friend celebrated her 18th birthday celebration. I saw how her family loves her so much and that made me happy. I saw how happy she was when I saw her smile. This was unforgettable day for me because we got a chance to be together again. Precious memories were made. High school friends are really the best pals that I can be with. The programme started late but still, it was fun. Ysabel(the debutante) had her 18 spartans, 18 memories, 18 shots, 18 sparkles and 18 treasures. She danced the poi dance and it was fantastic! I'm sure her parents are proud of her. I know that for Ysabel, that night will remain unforgettable until the res of her life.

So as I think about having a debut or not, this event made me think of it even more. I felt like celebrating a debut too. How I wish we can manage the expenses that we'll have if I'm going to celebrate one. For me, debut celebrations can also serve as a reunion for me and my high school friends that's why it's unforgettable and memorable.

10. Basketball!

What sport do I love most? For now, other people might be surprised if they'll knew about it. Well, it is the sport called, basketball. Basketball became a big part of my life especially during my grade school days and high school days. It may be not obvious that I love playing it but I really miss playing basketball.

(me with my team mate during highschool, at brent international school)

When I was a kid around the age of 7, I started to love basketball. Every afternoon I always play it and I don't even mind if the weather is too hot or the sun is too sunny. I wanted to join a varsity team of basketball girls but during that time there is no grade school basketball team for girls so instead of joining basketball I joined athletics. As time pass by, I am improving my skills in basketball. My playmates were my cousins, neighbors, and sometimes my classmates. I'm also fond of playing NBA games in my playstation 1. During my high school days, I always play as part of the team during intramurals. My first time playing in our gym was unforgettable. Our opponent were the higher batches and I'm still a freshman during that day. Do you know the feeling when you shoot the ball then everyone cheers for you? It feels great! I became a part of the varsity from 2nd year up to 3rd year, but suddenly I stopped playing basketball because I'm too busy for my schoolworks. I wish I could start playing again because I miss playing basketball.

It's fun to play basketball but I suddenly need to stop. It may be hard for me but even though I stop playing it, my feelings for this sport didn't changed. Until now, I do love basketball. Every experience  I had are memorable and I can say that I'm lucky because not all girls are given the talents to play this kind of sport. If the boys think that there are the ones who's only superior when it comes to this game, I'll prove them wrong.
