This is a tracking update for myself about my life events.
I have been out for almost a year. A lot of things has passed and I really truly wish I have written about everything in real time.
Finally, I have finished my studies. I went straight on finding a job. I have been working for almost a year now and I have never seen that life would come out this hard.
Back in College I have already laid out a plan for myself. I have drafted it perfectly that I thought it would come out just like how I expected it to happen. I realized that reality is very much uncertain.
Our second meeting was so much fun! We were assigned to report different social media platforms by group. My group mates and I reported Tmblr, Linked in, Quora and Delicious.
Other groups presented social media platforms like digg, reddit, pinterest, etc. these social media platforms aren’t really that known by students like us, but, the reporting of everyone explaining how they are used and what benefits you would get in engaging in these sparked an interest to everyone of us listening.
After the reporting, I went on straight to pinterest to check out the site. I was so happy to find different designs through pictures which I can use in decorating our home or my room. It may not be today, but, maybe pinterest would become handy for me someday.
Quora, another site which I really liked, because it gives answer to all of your questions may it be academically or personally.
Linked in, this site might come in handy after graduation. I look forward using this site after next semester. LOL!
All in all, every social media platforms that were discussed today made an impact to a lot of people around the world. It was nice to know sites which may help me have the convenience I seek as I grow in life.
The first class was so much fun, we had a short discussion about our most used social media site/s and then went on straight with choosing our own groupmates, which will be with us for the rest of the course.
We were given 10 minutes to prepare an introductory speech for each of our groupmates and luckily I was teamed up with my bestfriend Jhella and Ate Rodelyn which is also a close friend of mine. The three of us have been working along side for quite some time now because we're also working on our research together. Which is why it was easier to make an introductory speech about them. What they had said about me inspired me to strive harder on my goals in life.
We named our group "Holers" because we believe that we can overcome every struggles we may face no matter how hard it may be if we would always work hard together and that is what we try to aim.
After the introduction, we had an activity which we all enjoyed a lot. It was a guessing & matching type of game about social media sites. We had the highest score on the game and had the wonderful magazine from DOST as our prize.
“If you really want to live your life to the fullest and realize your greatest potential, you must be willing to run the risk of making some people mad. People may not like what you do, people may not like how you do it, but these people are not living your life. You are!”
People will hurt you and make you angry. You will have realizations such as turning your back on them, cancelling them in your life and move on to find a new set of people because you're just too tired from dealing with too much shits they've put you in. And then you will think of all those good times y'all shared together which will make you more confused about what you're feeling. And then you just decide to cancel all those thoughts you've built up in the end.
