9 - Hero Superhero

Hero, the first thing that comes to my mind every time I hear the word hero -- is someone who sacrifices his time, effort, and himself for the sake of other people. Through the sacrifices of that hero, the people can now enjoy their time, their effort (the things they do), and their selves (their freedom). One has to lose something for many to gain – Is the first thing that comes to my mind every time I hear the word hero.

“A hero is an ordinary individual who finds the strength to persevere and endure in spite of overwhelming obstacles,” according to Christopher Reeve. I believe a true hero will stand on what something he believe is right and let nothing hold him back, even if the cost of that stand is his life.

A more general standpoint of a hero is given by Debi Mazar – “A hero is somebody who is selfless, who is generous in spirit, who just tries to give back as much as possible and help people, also a hero is someone who saves people and who really deeply cares.” I believe the key word here is “someone who cares” therefore we can assume that everyone can be a hero.

The cost of a hero is more than you can imagine. As said by Bob Riley – “Hard times don’t create heroes. It is during the hard times when the ‘hero within us’ is revealed.” Everyone can be a hero but not everyone have what it takes to be a hero, because most people give up before they even get started.

Borrowing the words from Christopher Reeve again, he stated that “What makes Superman a hero is not that he has power, but that he has the wisdom and maturity to use the power wisely.” From that stand we can assume that everyone has the ability to be a hero. The only thing is they aren’t using that ability/power wisely. They use it for something worthless. Your time (commitment), your effort (courage), and yourself (stand) is all you need to be a hero. Use those things to help, inspire, and encourage people, and you have what it takes to be a hero.

8 - SOCSIT WEEK- OPENING CEREMONY

The Opening Ceremony was the best part of the SOCSIT week for me. because due to my busy schedule, time forbade me to attend the SOCSIT events. Except for the Opening Ceremony.

Friends, Close Friends, Best Friends, gathering in one place,shouting, dancing, and pushing just to express the attitude of their blocks. When I was there I saw the different kinds of blocks, and there I knew how blessed am I that my block is SS151.

After we gathered, the event started, the national anthem was sang by these proud APCIANS, an encouraging speech was given, and above all the parade started with proud students, representing their block. Nothing like this ever happened before, and maybe another year must wait for this to happen again.

7 - F.R.I.E.N.D.S

Friends, these are the people who you spend your time with. Most of them cheer you up in all sorts of ways. When you are depressed, they are the ones who put the smile back on your face. Friends often bring out the best in you. They are with you in competition, both of you brings out the best of each other, you bring out the best in one another.

Most of the time we make wrong decisions by choosing the wrong friends. Choosing the wrong friends will get you involve in the wrong competition. You'll be trying to be the best in something that is useless, unworthy, and foolish. "The voice that you believe will determine the future you experience", said by Pastor Steven Furtick. Thats why it's very important to surround yourself with the right voices, for it will determine the future that you'll reap.

In college, it's important to surround yourself with the right voices. Because one mistake can bring your whole life into a stumbling block. Choose your friends carefully, they are the ones who holds your future.

6 - Using A Portable Device For College

In college portable devices are very helpful to the students. You can take and read your notes anytime, anywhere. imagine that you have an upcoming exam next week, assuming that you put all your notes on your device, you can easily review your subject in just a tap. With that thing on the palm of your hands, you can easily review while lying down on your bed, when you're on the road going back home, and even when you're with friends.

When you hold a portable device, you should be responsible with it. Sure it's easy to take/read notes but it doesn't mean that you should use it to copy your friend's homework. Always remember that a good tool can always turn into a bad tool, which will lead you into a lot of disadvantages in college and in life. You should also be responsible in keeping your privacy, remember that details of your life is in that device, do not just let anyone take a look at it.

Whichever portable device you're holding, whether be Apple, or whether be Samsung, Its functionality will only depend how the user uses it. Use your device wisely and be proud of it.

5 - Fast-Food, Fast-Life

Fast-Food's are actually great, because their preparation of your food is fast, and the price is cheaper compare to the other high class restaurants

The disadvantage though, is that the food they prepare are unhealthy, for the reason that most of the preservatives of those food are cancerous. I've heard some stories 2 years ago about some people that had cancer for the reason that they have a habit of eating at fast-food's instead of eating at home.

However, most lower class people, have no choice but to eat at those fast-food's in order for them to save and survive the day. Students especially are forced to eat at those fast-food's if they didn't get a chance to take away some food at home. I hope that one day, restaurants will serve healthier, cheaper, and better food's to the people. "Because good health comes with better work functionality."

4 - The "er's"

The society is all about competition, everyone wants to be the best. If you think about it, all of our lives is all about the "er's;" who is bett-er, smart-er, fast-er,..etc. Its all about "Competition."

Knowing how the society thinks, what if it's the weak who is actually the strongest, and the dumb is actually the smartest, and the slow is actually the fastest? People today often underestimate people, and judge them before they can even prove themselves. Just because we don't understand them, and their ways it doesn't mean that you are better than them.

The problem with most people today is that they look up too much who is "er" than them. For the fact that they're so focused on others, that they forgot their very own abilities. Actually "it's not about what you can do, it's about who you're with."

3 -Internet Things (IT)

What is internet? As stated on Wikipedia, the Internet is a global system of interconnected computer networks around the world. Internet in 1990s made a huge difference in humanity, to the fact that multimedia became available in that same year. Anyways Internet has 3 services, World Wide Web, Communication, and  Data Transfer. 

World Wide Web, according to the Wikipedia again,is the global set of documents, images and other resources, logically interrelated by hyperlinks and referenced with Uniform Resource Identifiers (URIs) Programs such as, Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, Mozila Firefox...etc, is a World Wide Web function.

Communication: Nowadays, internet is commonly used for this around the world. Email, is very important in the industry, because this is how company's communicate with each other. Programs such as, Skype, OOVOO, Yahoo Messenger..etc uses internet for people to connect with each other virtually. 

Data Transfer: Cloud is the latest technology we have, it gives people the ability to store their files on the internet. Their memories, their pictures, and their important work documents, all in the cloud. Data Transfer is probably the most important service the internet ever offered to the society. Programs such as, ICloud, Dropbox, OneDrive, Google Drive....etc are Data Transfer related services of the internet.
