AUTOBIOGRAPHY

ANDRES BONIFACIO
Bonifacio is often portrayed as a hard worker and revolutionary.

Although this is true, he was much more than that. Although having
struggled through many hardships in his youth and experiencing
betrayal during his early activism, he strongly believed in the values
of comradeship.
It shows us that no matter how terrible circumstances are, it’s
important to work together. Bonifacio probably would be the first to
admit that the revolution was the result of teamwork. Collaboration
and kindness with others, such as your colleagues, are just as
crucial today as they were during Bonifacio’s time.
Being one of the founders of the La Liga Filipina, a movement calling
for political reforms, he did not give up when the movement fell
apart. He started another one called Katipinan, which ended up
being instrumental in the political change that followed.
Bonifacio Day is a reminder that failure is not final and standing by
your beliefs is crucial. Just because you fail once, it doesn’t mean
you can’t achieve your goals in the end. His determination is an
example of the self-starter culture we often see today in successful
businessmen.
PERSONAL NARRATIVE
THE FIRST DAY OF MY LIFE
I knew that my first day of high school would be challenging. There

would be higher expectations than elementary grade and the teachers would
be stricter. It is hard to tell you the way I felt about my first day of high
school but if i tell how it all it went then maybe you will understand. I woke
up this morning excited but, nervous as today was the day, I would begin
my journey of high school. Thousands of though it’s rushed through my
mind. Will I fit in? Will I make friends? Will I have nice teachers? Will I
bullied? That’s when I panicked but my mum assured me I would fine if I
followed school rules and did what was asked. So of I went in my uniform
and smile hoping for best outcome possible. My bag weighed me down but, I
stood up tall and proud .We met at the school hall with welcoming smiles
and sat in our form classes. I could feel the tension the air then I knew I was
not the only one feeling this way.
We then had a tour of the school and were shone everything would be.
I just hoped I could remember it all when I needed to. Then we headed off to
our first class to meet our fellow class mates. I was happy with my class as
not one kid in my class was mean or nasty to one or another.
As the lunch bell rang chaos arose kids running and screaming ever where
dashing to tuck shop hoping not to get caught in the line-up of course. I
went and sat down with my friends from last year we chatted about our
holidays and what their first lesson of high school was like. Before we knew
it, we were back in class.
We got to know our teachers a bit more my prayers had been answers
we had the best teachers of all. The teachers weren't strict nor grumpy or
mean. They were friendly and nice how all teachers should be. Before I knew
the day was over. I don't know why I panicked or was scared at all. High
school may seem scary but it's just like primary or kindergarten.
My first day of high school taught me, I shouldn't be so quick judge
about something, I haven't even tried. As high school was NOT lame; scary
or bad as thought it would be but, the funniest thing I have done. I love high
school now it’s the best thing of all. I hope your first day will be one of your
best days of your life too.
REFLECTION
LIFE WITCHOUT TECHNOLOGY
History is the study of past events. People know what happened in the
past by looking at things from the past including sources (like books,
newspapers, and letters) and artifacts (like pottery, tools, and human or
animal remains.). A person who studies history is called a historian.
For me a point in history I love to go back to as a journalist is when
there is no technology. The everyday lives of people have changed a great
deal due to the advent of technology. They have become easier, faster, more
comfortable and dynamic. But, at the same time, our lives have become
lethargic, preposterous and anti-social just like the computers that have
become a part and parcel of our lives. The technology has enriched our lives
and enlightened our minds, but in pursuit of its cozy comforts, people tend
to be over-reliant on it, so much that they can’t even imagine living without
it. This pointless obsession and abuse of technology in our lives has left us
vulnerable and weak. No doubt, the advancements brought us
unprecedented physical, medical and other benefits, but this over-reliance
will prove costly for the survival of the human race.
It would be illogical to believe that we should abandon technology,
because in many cases, it will be the difference for a better tomorrow. As a
result of the pursuit of better quality of life, some dependence on technology
is unavoidable because we would all like to have clean running water,
healthy diet, and protection from terrible diseases, provision of power and
different electronic tools for our businesses as well as other material
comforts and amenities in our lives. Technology especially in the face of
rapidly increasing population helps us in utilizing the Earth’s resources
more efficiently. But on the other hand there are negative effects of
technology lingering in our lives. By neglecting basic human and
mammalian instincts like socializing, family life and physical exertion, we
have become artificial and hollow. Although we are reaping benefits, we are
losing the little of the precious humanity left in our lives due to over-
indulgence.
Because of social media and mobile devices may lead to psychological
and physical issues, such as eyestrain and difficulty focusing on important
tasks. They may also contribute to more serious health conditions, such as
depression. The overuse of technology may have a more significant impact
on developing children and teenagers.
In conclusion, technology has affected our lives deeply. We simply
cannot imagine living without it. It has increased our lifespan and quality of
living. It has brought us closer to each other in certain ways and drifted
away in others. Without it, our lives would have been simpler, harder,
poorer, isolated, unimaginative, disconnected and dangerous.
This photo of mine symbolizes my love to our environment. This was
my favorite photo that I’ve posted in my social media. This photo reminds
me of how environment is very beautiful if we do our responsibility to take
care of it. I've been thinking more about my environmental impact. And the
individual obligation we have to take care of this planet, our collective home.
Nobody owns the title to Earth. Doing something for our environment was
really fun and heartwarming. Choosing to recycle, limit your waste, or keep
the oceans clean may not provide you with immediate gratifications, but
they reflect a higher ideal. A belief that what we do matters. That our
decisions have consequences. That we can be agents of good or bad. That we
remain connected throughout generations by the actions we take
throughout our own. And that, even though you or I may not benefit from
clean air and water 100 years from now, others should.
As stewards of the earth, as the highest form of life on this planet, we
must treat the land with respect. And accept the responsibility we have been
given to care for it. When we don’t pay attention, when we say, "what can I
do or how am I personally harming the earth?", we are shunning
responsibility. Which leaks into other areas of our lives.
I think about environmental responsibility as a frame of mind. It's
about paying attention. About not putting off for tomorrow what I can do
today. And not waiting for disaster to take action. It's about being awake,
purposeful, and proactive in everything we do.
When we shun our environment, we shun our responsibility to each
other and the world we share. It would be hard to think of something we
share more than the air we breathe and the water we drink. By caring for
our environment, not only are we protecting our planet for today, we are also
protecting it for our children and modeling for them that "community"
transcends neighborhood, city, and state. We are one world, one
community, and how we treat our share planet is a reflection of how we
treat our fellow man and the generations to come. What small act can you
commit to this week that will make a positive impact on our environment?
