 During the second quarter, I gained valuable learning experiences that helped me improve both academically and personally. I learned how to manage my time better, more manageable steps, which made them less stressful. I also discovered new strategies for problem-solving, which helped me understand and apply my lessons more effectively. Through these experiences, I gained more confidence in my ability to handle difficult topics and challenges, allowing me to grow and improve. The challenges that I encounter is that I am not fast when it comes to typing words especially our topics is encoding but at time passes by I am slowly getting fast typing words in our computer but even though I am already fast, our computer kept turning off when someone unintentionally touch or move the outlet wherein the computer is plugged in and we need to do it again.

Forgive and reset.

  T his year 2025 is all about letting go of the past and set new goals for this year. I want 2025 to be full of improvements not just academically and sports but also focusing on enhancing self confidence. Discover more and more things about life. I hope this year is going to be gentle on me and be one of the best year for  me. Personally i believe the first step of having a good year is forgiving the people who hurt you, made you feel left out, bullied you, doubt you; Because if you still do not let it go in the end your the one who will suffer. focusing to your self is the option and always believe to god because god always has a plan. Dont lost hope and the pain you went through in 2024 serve it as a lesson about life. This new year is all about reaching my goal. focusing on academics and sport. Get hungry for more improvements and never forget to the people who has been supporting you through this battle. Progress takes time thats why this year i will cut of any laziness....
