1. REFLECTIVE ESSAY
THE CASE OF ANGELO REYES
O ur life is created by God. So we have to treasure it. In the situation
of Angelo Reyes, he should not have ended his life with a flick of a
finger. It is common for us people to have a problem but in the case of Angelo Reyes, it
is quite rare. But for me, it is not right to end your life just because of that! There are
many solutions that may help him cope with his problem.
he Fifth Commandment states that “YOU SHALL NOT KILL.”
T The suicide done by Reyes was absolutely against it. Life is short.
Isn’t it? So we should not waste our time for a nonsense thing. I think he can manage
his problems if he did counseling, for him to have a clear mind and better
understanding.
I n his case, many people were thinking that he is also a part of
corruption because of his suicide. They think that he is guilty
about it. So, as a person, we have to think first the correct and most important thing
for us. And we have to think of many possibilities just to solve our problems in life.
Not ending our life!

2. DESCRIPTIVE ESSAY
SUBIC BEACH IN MATNOG

H you one of the beaches in Matnog which is now being known in
other places – the Subic Beach.
atnog can be found in the province of Sorsogon. It is in the end of
M Luzon. For you to be able to go to the Subic Beach, you have to
first ride on a boat. It takes 15 to 20 minutes before reaching it. Subic beach is now
known by many people because it has been broadcast by the media of ABS-CBN.
he sand of Subic is white just like in Boracay. It is somehow pure;
T it came from the dead corals. The color of the sea water is light
blue so you can see the underwater wherein corals, different fishes and sea weeds can
be found. If you are going to swim, the sea water level is first from your feet of course
to your waist or shoulder depending on your height. And then, in a single step or two,
it becomes deeper. But it is not totally as deep as the ocean.
hen you are planning to have a night swimming there, I can
W assure you that it is very beautiful and you’ll feel that you are
in paradise because when the sunrise is approaching, you will feel at peace and the
sun is very amazing with its color orange and it is big. The atmosphere is very
relaxing. That you will feel or think that you want to live there!

3. ANECDOTE
hen I was in fourth year High School, I had different groups of
W friends. The twilight, g’gurls, gagong rapers, kokey boys and as a
whole, we call our section as “SIPSIPONS”. Sipsipons because since first year, we were
all in Special Science Class also known as SSC section.
hen the promenade was approaching, my other friends in G’gurls
W were back fighting me because I usually joined in the group of
twilights which was very close to everyone and they didn’t back fight each other as
well as the other persons. Because in g’gurls, the group to which I really belong, they
back fight everybody even us, their friends. The only members of it which is not
“plastic” and back fighters was me and my bestfriend, Dimple.
O ne time, they were wondering why I was not joining them. So
what I did is that I talked to them. And when I am talking, the
three girls except my bestfriend were laughing at me. . . I ask why? They said, they
just didn’t want to be so serious. So on my part, it was very insulting. Because I was
explaining but they still did laugh so walked out and cried. My other friends saw
what they did. Later on, they followed me inside the campus. My friend Johanna was
comforting me and when the g’gurls wanted to have a conversation with me, the
three still laughed. So Johanna told them to stop because it was a sign that they
really didn’t care and they have no respect. My bestfriend misunderstood what
Johanna was trying to tell so; she walked out too together with my three friends. As
they walked out, I followed them and I held the shoulder of my bestfriend to stop her
and for her to hear my explanation. Yet, she refused to listen. And again, I cried.
Then almost all of my classmates saw everything. The girls were comforting me and
they were telling bad words against them. And the boys formed a circle and they sang
a rap song just to hide us and for the others not to wonder why I am crying.

4. day after what happened, during recess/break time, my bestfriend
A was crying on the corner because of our “war”. And her sister called
on a mobile phone and tried to know everything behind that because she told me that
my bestfriend was crying the night after she walked out. So, I explained to her
everything. And I heard Jerelyn saying that I am “plastikon” because I talked to my
bestfriend’s sister. I was angry then, until one week, after that, I am the one who said
sorry even though it was their real fault. I did that because almost all of my
classmates were angry at them because they knew the truth. And for me, saying
sorry is not important of who will be the one to say that, even if it is your fault or
not. What’s important is that the friendship that we built and we were all
graduating students, so I took off my pride! And now, we are still friends. Yet they
still somehow have the same attitude.

5. NARRATIVE ESSAY
I HAD A DREAM
“Live life to the fullest.” Every day is a treasure.
L ast July 15, 2011, 6 o’clock in the morning, the sister of my grandmother on
my father side died. It was a shocking moment to all of us. She went to
Matnog that week to attend the burial of the relative of her husband. The day after the
burial. . . after she took her breakfast and was about to take her toothbrush, she had a heart
attack. Immediately, she was brought to the hospital to be saved but unfortunately, she
didn’t survived. My mother texted me about what happened and I was shocked and about to
cry because I thought it was my grandma on my mother side. Because they have the same
name which in Salvacion “Vacion”. But when I saw the name of my very close aunt, I
thought of them. For they were only two daughters and they were both single.
S he was a good mother to all. I remembered that whenever we celebrated the
town fiesta in Matnog, Christmas, New Year, and the like, she used to be
with us. And she will make some dishes that we like and her best dish or recipe was lecheflan.
Her lecheflan is very delicious and anybody wants to have it.
he day of her burial, I wasn’t able to attend because I still have an
T examination for midterm. Although I want to be there, still, I don’t
have much time and I have no choice but to finish first my examinations. It was the saddest
part because of course I wasn’t able to see her for the last time.
O ne day, I had a dream. Surprisingly, she was there. She’s wearing a
white dress and black on the edge. She is cooking and very busy

6. preparing some foods because we have a gathering that time. At one moment, I
thought/realize that she was dead. But I used to ignore her because she was enjoying her work
at that time. I think, she wanted us to be happy and not to worry about her for she is now in
God’s hand.
ith this dream, I have been awakened and I found myself crying. It
W was 3 o’clock in the morning. At 4 o’clock, I decided to sleep again
wishing that I will be seeing her again. But it never happened. 
COMPARISON AND CONTRAST
TEACHERS and STUDENTS
hat are the rules of teachers and students? Are they important in
W our society?
eachers have the most critical role here in our society because they
T are the ones who mold the students. They always see to it that the
students gain knowledge from them. They are also the second parents of the learners
for they teach, guide, help and discipline the students to become a better person. And
their teachings should also jive with the needs, interest, skills and abilities of the
students so that the learners will be motivated and being motivated will enhance
their capabilities in doing things.
S tudents are the ones who listen, apply, experiment and solve
problems. These are the roles of a student because it helps them to
enhance their knowledge and experiences. They have to do all the requirements given
by the teacher for it will be their guide to their future. Jose Rizal said that young
people play a vital role in our society. Yes! It’s true. And they are the ones who can
make a change in our society/community.

7. S o without teachers, there will be no students and there will be no
change /progress in our society.

his course that I’m taking is not actually my choice but the
T choice of my mother since she was a product of this institution as
well as my grandmother. They also took the course Education. What I want is Hotel
and Restaurant Management or Nursing. Because I feel that I will be motivated
well and for me those two are very interesting. Yet somehow I was convinced by my
mother to take this course which is Education because she told me that if ever I don’t
want/like to teach, I can still find a job like; call center agent or as a steward.
I really love to dance because dancing is my passion and through
dancing, somehow I can express my feelings, emotions and ideas. I
would describe myself as a happy person, kind, friendly, generous, lovable and most
importantly a chocoholic person… Why? Because chocolates makes me feel
comfortable, relax, stressfree, and light. That’s why whenever I am stressed or I have a
problem, I always see to it that I have chocolates in my room, my pocket or bag.
I ’ll just end this story of my life with my motto; Live life to the
fullest, be yourself; and don’t be so insecure with others for you
have something that they don’t have. 

CRITICAL ANALYSIS
3 IDIOTS

16. This movie is about the 3 students which they called as idiots. They are Pansukh
“Chhote” Wangdu who disguised of being Ranchhoddas Shamaldas Chanchad also
known as Rancho. And his bestfriend namely Raju Rastogi and Farhan Qureshi.
Pasukh Wangdu is a son of a gardener in the palace of the family of Ranchhoddas
Shamaldas Chanchad. Their family gave Pansukh an opportunity to go to school
and they also gave him an old uniform. When he was Grade 7, one professor saw him
that he was doing a Grade 10 Math ad he called his attention. The father of Rancho
wants him to take an Engineering course which actually suited in his ability and
interest. And he said that he only wants a Degree and he will post it on the wall.
While Rancho was sent in the United States for four years.
There was a scene that when Raju and Farhan was been embarrassed by their
Director Virus, they get drunk and they promised to Chhote that they will listen to
their hearts and marry the things that they wanted to be if Chhote will court Pia,
daughter of Virus. So, they did it. And they gave Virus a pee-mail. But only Raju
was the only one who has been caught in action. So he was called his attention and
made a decision of who will be the one to be rusticated in college if it is him or chhote.
But he committed suicide. Later on, when he was been recovered, they did their
promises to Chhote. And they found a job.
Years after, Raju, Farhan and Chatur were looking for Chhote to know his position
and his reason of leaving right after their graduation for he did not informed them.
So, they found the real “Rancho” and he told them the real story. And they went to
Chhote in a School which they thought he was only a school teacher. Yes, he was but
he is also a scientist which Chatur idolized.
