New Year, New Chances

-

             


                As the new year approaches, it is normal to look back and consider the improvements we wish to make in the future year. One of the things that have been on my mind is whether or not the individuals in my life are good influences. In the past, I've had to make the difficult decision to cut a few people off, and it wasn't easy. I had known these individuals for a long time and had a lot of history with them, but I recognized they were toxic and causing more harm than good in my life. It was a difficult decision, but I knew it was vital for my own self.

                It is important to remember that we have the power to choose who we allow into our lives and to prioritize our own happiness. This means that we have the power to remove people from our lives that are toxic or harmful to us and our well-being. Surrounding ourselves with negative people can hold us back and hinder our personal growth. It can be difficult to let go of people we have known for a long time, but it is essential to remember that our own happiness and well-being should come first. On the other hand, I also believe in the power of forgiveness and giving people second chances. We all make mistakes and it's possible that someone who has hurt us in the past may be actively trying to change and become a better person. In these cases, it may be worth considering giving them another chance, but it is important to proceed with caution and to make sure that we are not setting ourselves up for further harm. It is essential to be mindful of the people we let into our lives and to make sure that they are adding value and contributing to our personal progress.

            As we enter the new year, it's a good time to take stock of the relationships in our lives and determine if they are healthy and give positive influences. It's a perfect opportunity to evaluate if the people in our life are adding value to our lives, and if they are lifting us up and supporting us on our journey. It's not always easy, but it's important to surround ourselves with people who bring positivity and help us to grow as individuals. The start of a new year is a chance for new beginnings, and that includes reassessing the relationships in our lives. We must be aware of the people we let into our lives and make sure they are with us with new chances.

Scribbles: Lines, Loops and Squiggles

      I am of mixed emotions to grasp how three-fourths of our school year went so fast. I would have to say things have changed for the better. I think.  Scribbles may not make any sense to some.  Just like scribbles, my mind is hard to comprehend what happened. A mixture of lines, loops, and squiggles. But these scribbles somewhat hide a deeper meaning in children's eyes.       Throughout this quarter, I have learned many things and encountered different experiences, both exciting and challenging especially on our subject, Information and Communications Technology. It has been a great moment to develop my knowledge and understanding in each of the different areas within the subject. The quarter as a whole has enabled me to explore further my strengths and work on improving my weaknesses so that I can enhance my overall performance. For one, our community-based research in our subject had engaged us in working with other students during...

Tomorrow is Never Promised

          "Tomorrow is never promised" a universal truth that we all must accept. Life is unpredictable and we never know what the future holds. However, we can still make plans for the future and work towards our goals. As I reflect on where I see myself in a decade, I realize that anything can happen, but I can still prepare for a future that I desire. I can still make a difference      In ten years, I see myself as a medical student still studying and thriving. I have always been passionate in this field and always had the drive to purse it. I had this slogan at heart ever since to help the sick serving my community by providing and improving their health and overall wellbeing.      Of course, it is impossible to predict what challenges may arise in the future. However I plan to be prepared for whatever comes my way. I see myself continuing to learn and grow both personally and professionally. I plan to take advant...
