My school life!!!


SCHOOL! How is it really important to your life? Does it really exist as a big part of it?

Education was said by mostly of the people is really important to one’s life. It was also said to be one of the greatest things your parents can give you. But does it really exist to be like this?

Education is really important to one’s life, especially for me. Even many years back, education plays an important role in the history and even in the new generation and more new generations to come.

In education, it teaches us how to write novels and essays, how to speak and communicate to understand each other and how to read books, magazines and etc. We learned how to expressed our feelings and thoughts in a topic. We learned to answer the people asking us. And in education, we learned to love and appreciate the life we had and respect each life here on Earth. We also understand more about the Mother Nature.

Educating ourselves is such a big responsibility to your parents and you. The parents have to find money to pay your tuitions in school. And good for me, my tuition in school is just small. They have to find money to buy food so that you won’t be weak in school. So just imagine yourself in their part. You’ll see how tiring is their job is. It is also a great responsibility for you, because you have to be good and excel in class. You should study well so that you won’t have low grades and score in class. So that when your parents can see that you’re doing well, they can be proud of their selves.

But I know sometimes, we can feel that educating ourselves is also very tiresome. We students spend more time in school than in home. We went to school early and go home late. We also have more school days than in vacation. Just imagine, 10-11 months in school but just 2-3 months at home. In school it is really a requirement to have and to pass projects on time. But sometimes I feel lazy to pass it and sometimes in some instances, we can really pass late because of the money problems. And if we were not financially stable, it would be a big problem especially with the books. It is okay to borrow books but then it is better if you have your own book so that when it you need it you won’t have hard time to borrow anymore to your friends.

But despite of all these things, educating is still important. “POVERTY IS NOT A HINDRANCE TO SUCCESS”, just always keeps this quote and remembers this when you feel that you can’t finish in school because you are poor. Just always think that there is nothing impossible when you believe to yourself that you can do it and accomplish it and also believe in God. When you always believe that you with GOD can do it and then you can say you can accomplish everything.

Hey it’s all about me…!

On the 14th day of August in the year 1993, a beautiful girl was born namely “Sweeney Bragat”, and that was I. I am the youngest among the 4 siblings of Mr. Fidel and Mrs. Celsa Bragat. I was born having two (2) sisters and a brother. My sisters are Deciela and Dhesney who were also beautiful like her and her brother is Carl Frian who looks like Brad Pitt (joke!!!!). At the age of 7,I became an aunt of girl namely Dhera Cedale. On the year 2004, I became again an aunt of a young girl namely Deryn. And again, in the year 2005, a boy was born namely Aldhale Jan and on the year 2006, another girl was born namely Alexandrite Dhea. Well, as a generalization I’ve been an aunt of four kids at the early age but I’m proud of it. It’s really hard but then I try my best to be their best aunt in the world. Now I’m thirteen (13), I can say I am more mature the before. I can say it, because I am already in the 2nd year of my high school life and I have already learned a lot from the experiences and the stories of my parents and my sister.

But before I went to high school, I also experienced to be in grade school and in nursery. And I have lots of memorable and laughable thoughts that are surely still on my mind until now. I went into a public school in elementary. Its name is Mabolo Elementary School. I am not sure where it really derived from but all I can say is even it is a public school but it is still a best school for me. Now that I’m studying in U.P. or University of the Philippines, I will still make memorable and thoughtful memories here.

And now is the time to describe myself. I’m a girl who is so secretive. I maybe tell you some secrets of mine but it is not the whole thing and it could only be a part of it. In school, I always laugh, and I didn’t even shed a tear. I don’t want to cry in school because I want to be strong in front of my classmates and teachers and as well as my friends. And I don’t want my classmates or teachers or even my friends to feel pity on me. And every second of my life, I always think that crying means your weak, that’s why even in our home I don’t cry in front of my parents and sisters or brother. If I do that, I always feel self-pity. I don’t know how to explain it and I don’t even want to explain it more. I’m a girl who always treasure every moments that I spent with my friends. I don’t know to them. I always put an importance when I spend some of my time with my friend. And I am so caring as a friend. You maybe can’t see it but if you look inside of me, you can see in my heart that I took care with my special friends.

And that is all I can say about me. You know, I’m secretive so I won’t tell no more about me. But it is better if you know and see me in personal. And judge me after that.

Dreams of my life………


In everything I’ve been dependent to my parents, financially and spiritually. It’s hard for me because all I wanted for all of my life is to be independent. Maybe in some ways I can be classified as an independent but I think I’m still young to be one of it. I’m not yet physically, emotionally, spiritually, mentally and socially independent. But still I’m hoping that someday I can see myself changing and improving, from a dependent young girl into an independent young woman…

Well as a person, I myself can say that I’m dreaming impossible and unreachable things. But for me it will be possible, because I will do my best to accomplish it. Just like studying in U.P. Diliman. Yeah, right! Studying there is one of my biggest dreams in life. Maybe it sounds funny but I am serious. And maybe if someone would hear me talking about this they would laugh at me for having such a big dream, but I don’t care what would they say. It is my dream not theirs and there is nothing to worry about it because nothing will lose if I try. And for your information, my main reason why I’m dreaming to study in such a great school is not only for me to benefit but also for my family. All my hard works are lend to them because they are the one giving me strength to continue fighting in this world. They give me strength and hope when they see weakness around me. That’s why this time is the right time to pay back all those things. And this dream of mine is I think one best way to pay them back for all those cares and loves they gave me. I also want to prove to them, that I’m different with my older sister and older brother. I’ll show to them that even at a young age I can make and choose a right decision, which is good for all of us. And when I am with them I can make sure that I am safe and comfortable. And as time goes by, I learned to realize that time is running so fast that I can’t even noticed it and so I should make out the best of me to spend it with them…

As days past, I had asked myself why would I have to face challenges, problems, troubles, struggles and hard consequences when all I want is to have a perfect life? But then, as time goes by I learned that life is not perfect if we don’t face any challenges and problems. For all we know that from all these things we learned how to face today, tomorrow and the future. And from all those things we learned to face the real truth that all of these things are happening not just because it happens but also because for a purpose. Its purpose is for us to realize that there is no such thing as a perfect life but only life sprinkled with perfect moments. And from our mistakes we learned to face the reality of this world………

Well maybe all these things are just dreams but still I believe that it would come true someday. All of these dreams are forever cherished and treasured in my heart, body and soul. And I am sure that even these won’t come true but will still be forever in my heart and won’t ever fade until the last breath I take. And I’m sure that all these dreams will bring joy, excitement and enjoyment to my life and will leave memorable moments in my heart as I try to accomplish all of these…………….

Knowing my school….

Its really hard to study here in U.P. aside from the fact that studying and passing here in the best school of Cebu is such a great honor and opportunity and as well as responsibility. It’s really true that studying here is so tough but yet enjoying. Enjoying in a way that every student and even each of the faculty members or even every individual whose half of their lives had spent in the school just like the security guards and the janitors enjoys each company. Maybe mostly of the people who did not have their chances to study in U.P. would say that UPians are very intelligent. But as far as I know, UPians are intelligent not just because of themselves but because of the teachings and lessons we learned and understand each day we spend with our beloved teachers. Upians would not have existed if they were not there. They were one of the reasons why the former, present and the future UPians will be where they are now until to where they will be. That’s why a big and great “thank you” should be given to them as a sign of our gratefulness for having all of them…

But then, there is just only one thing that is disgusting about U.P. The buildings in the school are so old that we can see holes on it, and also the comfort room is untidy. This are just opinions from a student who is concern about U.P. These are not complaints. But I know who’s really wrong, and that’s the person who doesn’t know about grooming. But then these things are not enough to hinder us students to study and finish studying here…

But despite of all those things, there are so many things that make U.P. respective. Well aside from the best teachers, wonderful students are also found here. This is kind of a place where you can find a friend to whom you can really rely on. UPians may have differences in their qualities and characteristics but there are also some things that are common and similar to each and everyone which may result into a deeper friendship. U.P. students are not only good in academic but also excellent in their manners. U.P. students are loving, caring, understanding and also responsible in some ways. Each of the students has different beauty and personalities that may or may not stand out in the crowd…

The teachings and learning we got in U.P. is such a great impact to one’s life. Maybe some can’t be use in daily life but still plays an important role to a life of a U.P. student. That’s why it’s really a great opportunity to study here…

The first thing may come out in your mind when you hear the word U.P. is maybe hard. Very hard to pass in the test, very hard to enter and very hard to maintain grades but maybe we all know that nothing is possible when you believe to yourself that you can do it. Yeah, its true that it’s really hard here but the quality that we get here is irreplaceable. That is why I can say it is a best school…
