"THE PEARL"

I have been reading the novel "THE PEARL" for almost one week but still, I'm not yet half way.....
I'm still in the part wherein Kino decides to sell the pearl but he felt the someone has been cheating on him.....He knew of the 3 men who were tracking him to get the pearl from him and because of this he got mad like a machine and ambushes and killed the 3 men.

I missed my summer vacation!!!!



I had so many unforgettable memories during my summer vacation........
I missed that wonderful COCO BEACH wherein I had experienced the real feeling in watching the performances in the beach because before when my parents are going to the beach they always watch so many performances in the resorts during vacation that's why I asked my father to bring us to a beach wherein there are live performances.I was so delighted to experience that I had experience this.

role to strengthen my family



Family is a group of people who live together usually consistng of parents and children.A mother is a treasured gift of love that is deep and true.She is always standing by to guide and comfort us,gives encouragement with wisdom and a smile,understands our hopes and dreams and make them seem worthwhile.A father is there whenever we need someone to stand beside us,someone to hear our troubles ,someone to share our burden and when we need someone to know that someone cares.And as a daughter,I would always be there for my parents in quenching all those fiery darts.I would always obey,honor and support them while they are still alive for it is of no use to sacrifice for them when dead.With this, I could help to strengthen my family.

MY FAMILY TREE

At my mother's side,I had a Spanish grandfather and I have seen him when I was still young.While at my father's side,a never knew of my grandfather for he already died when my father was still grade school.

I knew it!!

I HAVE KNOWN OF OUR FILIPINO ATHLETES FOR BEING SO GREAT IN THE FIELD OF SPORTS.AS FAR AS I KNOW, MOST OF US WOULD REALLY TAKE THE OPPORTUNITY TO EXPERIENCE BEING THE REPRESENTATIVE OF OUR COUNTRY FOR IT IS A GREAT ACHIEVEMENT FOR US.I WAS SO INSPIRED BY ALL THOSE STORIES OF THE ATHLETES THAT ARE REALLY WELL KNOWN.THROUGH THEIR GREAT PERSIVERANCE and PATIENCE,THEY SUCCESS AND ARE NOW WELL KNOWN FOR THEY GREAT PERFORMANCES

a research abstract

Abstract
A diverse array of birds apparently make mechanical sounds (called sonations) with their feathers. Few studies have established that these sounds are non-vocal, and the mechanics of how these sounds are produced remains poorly studied. The loud, high-frequency chirp emitted by a male Anna's hummingbird (Calypte anna) during his display dive is a debated example. Production of the sound was originally attributed to the tail, but a more recent study argued that the sound is vocal. Here, we use high-speed video of diving birds, experimental manipulations on wild birds and laboratory experiments on individual feathers to show that the dive sound is made by tail feathers. High-speed video shows that fluttering of the trailing vane of the outermost tail feathers produces the sound. The mechanism is not a whistle, and we propose a flag model to explain the feather's fluttering and accompanying sound. The flag hypothesis predicts that subtle changes in feather shape will tune the frequency of sound produced by feathers. Many kinds of birds are reported to create aerodynamic sounds with their wings or tail, and this model may explain a wide diversity of non-vocal sounds produced by birds.

reasons for living............

Naturally the most powerful reasons for living are personal-
family,friends,important events to be part of ,or goals to be accomplished.
For my family, I wanna have a strong bond with my sisters and especially with my parents.Being with friends is my will because with my friends,I can do have funs and explore my self.They let me experience many things that I cannot experience with my family and it is really good to have friends whom you could trust.I would wanna experience to be part of any organizations in our society and the most thing that I could wish for ...is to be a successful dreamer.........will never be break even the huge waves in times of trials in life.......
And in with the guide of our father God.......I can do whatever I will.........
