Halfway Done

Reading young adult books is another one of my favorite past times. I greatly appreciate fiction books especially when the story is about kids getting in out of the world situations.

I am halfway done in reading 'The Mysterious Benedict Society'. I started reading this book last year. After reading some chapters, I abandoned it because of the need of time for studying and of course time for my organizations. I went back into reading just this Friday, November 4. Maybe because I don't have anything to do for now so I went back to my book. As I read 'The Mysterious Benedict Society,' I imagine myself in their own shoes. The scenes were popping out into my mind as if it is all real. I really like to picture things out when reading books. In that way, I  enjoy it and at the same time I understand what was going on in the story.

Try reading and imagining at the same time. It is fun especially when the story is full of mysteries and adventure.

The Magical Book of JAMworks

This is one of my best works and I call this "The Magical Book of JAMworks." I created this masterpiece exactly one year ago (November 4, 2010). This project is done for more than five hours.

I am very thankful to God for giving me such talent.

3 Hours Well Spent

This day is a very special day. I went out with my friend Ralph. We haven't seen each other for months but we stay connected over the phone and Facebook.

I could say that it is a 3 hours well spent. We talked, watched Puss in Boots in 3D, etc.

To Ralph: Thank you for the gift! I will treasure every moment we spent together. You are a special friend. :)

Hands On!

 This morning, I thought of various things to keep my boredom away. I resorted in designing a shirt.

I don't like Snoopy that much but he is one of the characters which is easy to draw. I am not that much of an artist by hand so I don't expect perfect results. I just enjoy drawing and painting.

Here are some pictures of the final product. 

Generation Gaps

People today value education. Education is something that you could treasure for young and old.

A good and proper education is what parents hope to provide to their children. Some parents are stiff to the notion that high levels of achievement will lead to a better future. This statement may be true, but it may also be wrong.

Parental pressure could create disconnected and unhappy kids. Children in well-off families are more likely to be emotionally distant from their parents. The pressure they obtain from parents' high expectations make a toxic environment for some. These influences may create intense feelings of hopelessness for the children.

We don't want to see a world of pessimistic and hopeless youth. Don't let the pressure be the gap between the parents and their children. Let this be a warning for all.
