4TH QUARTER - 1st Reflection

The final, yet one of the best lesson—it is the Iceberg Theory. We've discussed about the story called "Hills Are White Elephants" by Ernest Hemingway that popularized the way of writing. Iceberg Theory is inserting the main idea of the story though only hidden so that the other people will theorize about it. We were also tasked of doing like that. Oh, we were clueless about the story until we dug deeper onto its true meaning—an operation of something.

3RD QUARTER 4th Reflection

4th - God Sees The Truth But Waits

This story is mainly focused on "forgiveness". We discussed about this story and its elements. I think this one is sad to think that he lived 26 years on prison only to suffer and no presence of his loved ones. And we were also asked to write an imitation about this.

3RD QUARTER 2nd Reflection

2nd Reflection - The Importance of Showing

This lesson is very interesting to think that there are many various way to show the details on what's happening. I learned that I should not directly tell the reader the feeling. For example, if the man is stressed, we should say "the man is fidgeting, and his biting his nails." Also, by showing the details, the story will look more colorful and expressive.

3RD QUARTER 1st Reflection

1st Reflection - Contemporary Literature

From the word itself, contemporary, means something that is occuring in the present. Contemporary Literature is no different; the flowering of this literature continued after the Martial Law years. Until now, we write poems, stories, novels, and essays whether it is gender/ethnic related or socially committed. They paved the way for the Filipinos to be conscious to their crafts.

Glowing Creature

Firefly's rested here.

It is rare to see an insect,

That glows like magic.

The Man's Sorrow

Frown-faced looking man,

Staring something on window.

Why is the man sad?

A Children's Mount

Carousel spinning,

How nostalgic this feels like,

Remembering past.

Me Beneath The Palm Trees

Tall and huge palm trees.

Looking at me from above.

I think it needs hug.

Sunset's Masterpiece

In an orange sky,

Where there's the sun and moon met.

Creating an art.

The Clouds And Breeze

How lovely sky is?

Cold breeze that passes through me,

Clouds are patterned well.

As the birds soar above,

A beautiful scenery.

A Foot Beneath The Green

Grassy greenery,

Where something grazes in field.

Those are herd of sheep.

Such abundant soil that grew,

It's comfortable to walk on.

An Azure Paradise

Such an azure sea,

How dazzling it is to look.

Beautiful and calm.

Vast sand at the nearby shore,

As waves crashes onto it.
