Inconvenient Truth

The scene that really strike me are those scenes that showed the effects of global warming.

I really worried and bothered about it. It is scary because there are things happening right now in our earth that is unusual.

I realized after I watch the movie that what we'd all done to our earth was too much already. The earth fight us back in all the abuses we'd done to it. I realize also that it was us who started this problem and it was also us who will suffer the consequences.

I can help to solve this problem by telling others this movie so that they could watch it. The impact of the movie is really intense and I really prefer this movie to be watch by all the people around the world. You will decide to do something about it after you watch the movie. This movie will made you realized the things you done in to the earth. This movie is really great.

5th Journal: "The Most Challenging Thing I have ever Accomplished"

"The Most Challenging Thing I have ever Accomplished"

During my last year as a highschool student, I was given a chance to show my talents.

My english teacher who is also our classroom adviser, told us that we will have a project, and it was a play. Romeo and Juliet is the story that they want us to show. My classmate had a hard time choosing for the role of Juliet. During the nomination for the Juliet role, I am not in the classroom because I was excused by my moderator in club to practice and to teach us the flower arrangement because we are going to join a contest in Lyceum.

When I returned in the classroom to get something, they all look at me and they shouted that I will be the Juliet. I was surprised because I never thought that they would choose me though I know that it will be a break for me to show what I have. At first I don't want to accept the role because it's hard for me to act as a girl like Maria Clara. (haha) But they really want me to do the role that's why I finally accept it. During the practices, I'm not focusing well because I'm quite shy to act in front of my classmates. But I know to myself that I could do it. After a few days, our director told me that I should sing so that our play would partly musical, I was really surprised because I will sing in front of a crowd. The play was presented twice, during the school fair in our gym (2nd day) and before the Bingo (3rd day) . Before the presentation, I was really nervous because I'm worrying on what will happen during the play especially in the part that I will sing because I haven't memorize yet the whole song, especially the last part. But during the presentation I was able to act well and sing the song well though I forgot the last part but they said that it's not obvious and I was able to manage it. After the presentation I received compliments from the teachers, sisters (nun), classmates and schoolmates and from my family because they watched me. After I heard their compliments, I said to myself that it's all

worth it. It was challenging but I learned something about it, that I should have self-confidence and I have to trust myself that I could do the things that i've never done before.

I also ask God for help and i thank him. It's challenging but I know that I was

able to share what I have to others.
