4. What have you learned/realized from your experience?

Most of my classmates in high school drink alcohol, that's why it is not shocking, if sometimes there were sittuation that they insist me to drink also. I remember it was my classmate's birthday and they invited me to go with them. Its a birthday celebration that's why I know that they were going to drink alcohol- its a "tradition" for them, but still I go with them. When we were in the place they start drinking and invited me also to drink, but ofcourse I insist and say 'no'. After many times of insisting and saying 'no' they felt tired and leave me alone, well i guess that's better than go with them in what they so called ' drinking section'
I didn't felt sorry about my decision infact I'm happy with it. I realized that if you really don't want to do one thing no one can persuade you to do it.

Self -evaluationReview the results of your personal health assessment and write your realizations and plans about your health in your journal.
The results of my personal health assestment shows that my physical health is not that good. So I realized that I need to be more careful with my health to avoid health problems, though I know that its not that easy.
When it comes to my sipiritual health I discovered that I don't have any problem, well because I know that I have strong believe on Him, and even though sometimes I forgot to read my bible I know that my faith on Him is still there.Im just happy to know that even though my physical health is poor, My spiritual health is doing good. I guess this is the more important than any other thing.

Until one day, on my surprise my cousin doesn't want to approach me. I thought that he just have problem that's why he is not in good mood, but starting that day he didn't even looked at me, I'm really try to talk to him but he didn't even looked at me until one day I feel tired that's why I do the same to him, I also didn't mind him. My mother as well as our other relatives talked to us but still it didn't work. We didn't mind each other for two years. Our other cousins talked to me and said that its our ego which make us this problem right after I heard that I decided to talk to my cousin again because I realized that I need to do something to bring back our freindship.I went to their house at first I really felt awkward,and when I saw him the first thing I did was to ask him"asan si mile?" I thought he will not going to mind me but on my surprised he answered. Starting that day, little by little our friendship and closeness back until it seems that there's nothing happened.

DATE: 2nd week of class
TIME: 10:00
DETAILS:
- It happened during our class in Physical Science, we are in the middle of our discussion when someone texted me that cause my cellphone to beep loudly. I was really surprised because I thought that I turned my cellphone off. My classmates and also my teacher looked at me and they laughed at me ( I know that they didn't mean to offend or embarass me.). At that time, I really don't know what to do, I really felt embarassed . Starting that day I always make sure that before I came in the classroom I already turned my cellphone off or at least switch it on silent mode.
- I learned that I should always check not only my cellphone but also all my other things.
