11. New concepts learned
 There are different parts of a story. In a story,
all those parts are needed or considered as
important. If one of these parts is missing
then, the story would possibly be considered
as a story that is not clear. It seems to be
simple but, these events can give an impact
to the audience especially to the people
who are really in to patronizing these stories
or movies. Our life has its own plot and each
part would give us a lesson that we can
apply in our life.

12. This reminds me of…
 The plot of a story has a part called climax
and in our life, we already had a lot of
climax in which it would be considered as
a memorable one. I can say that the
climax of my life is when I was deciding on
which course to take the moment I filled
up my application forms. That decision
should be final for I know that the decision
I would make is the path that I’m willing to
take for my career, and that is my climax

13. Usefulness in real situations
 I can say that I can use these learning to
identify the different problems in my life
and as well as to learn to look for different
possible solutions in solving my problems.
These may be considered as simple
knowledge but once it became part of
my system in applying these parts in my
life then, it will be easier for me to know
and find solutions for the problems that I
am experiencing.
