Seminar Overview

This subject that is called FTS or Field Trip and Seminars is one of the requirements in our course. It essential to a student because of the fact that we students can learn about technologies that is not found in Davao. Compare and contrast some things and listen to their speech.

Day 1

Today, I went on a seminar to Department of Science and Technology or “DOST” at Bicutan, Taguig. And Social Security System or “SSS” at East avenue, Quezon City.

What I learned?

Amid the main day of our significant field trip we arrive before the actual arranged time in the morning in the NAIA terminal and we are so energized yet tired due to the jetlag. After that we have sat tight for the transport to come and following a couple of minutes the transport just arrived and we went to McDonald to have breakfast. Obviously I appreciate the snacks despite the fact that regardless I’m full despite everything I eat it. After the primary class we had our lunch at Kenny Rogers, Katipunan Quezon City and the food is so great. I truly like the part where it's about eating food. At precisely 02:00pm we began to move for the following Company to visit which is Social Security System, East Avenue Quezon City. After the workshops with the two organizations we had the shopping time in Trinoma and get some stuff. And afterward after the long tiring day we did checked in Kabayan Hotel, EDSA, Pasay City and finally I we can rest and wash up.

What I liked?

As the plane land off in manila I felt jetlag and that minute that I felt is the minute that I won't overlook for I result in these present circumstances put surprisingly of my life. Prior to the plane land off I enjoyed additionally the minute that I venture out Davao to manila inside the plane. Furthermore that I enjoyed venturing out to our distinctive goal of organizations, our guide, outlines the trademarks that was in manila for us to take in the things that all the things about it. I also liked the main shopping center that we went by and that is Trinoma. The place is awesome not the same as other shopping center that we use to went casually in Davao. I felt upbeat and magnificent for us encounter new environment and new experience for that day. What's more, finally the dozing time? We checked in Kabayan inn situated at Pasay city. I dozed in an agreeable bed with ventilated room.

What I didn’t like?

On the first day, I didn’t like is that the traffic in Manila is so heavy.

Day 2

Today, I went to IBM in the morning and Accenture in the afternoon.

What I learned?

In the second day of our field trip we went by is IBM located at Ayala Technohub. Quezon City. In any case, before that we had our breakfast at Kabayan Hotel. International Business Machines is a multinational PC innovation and IT counseling organization. The organization is one of only a handful few data innovation organizations with a consistent history going back to the nineteenth century. IBM makes and offers PC equipment and programming and offers foundation administrations, facilitating administrations, and counseling administrations in zones running from centralized server PCs to nanotechnology. IBM has been outstanding through the greater part of its late history as one of the world’s biggest PC organizations and frameworks integrators and is one of the biggest and most gainful data innovation managers on the planet. For me in the wake of going to every one of the organizations IBM is one of a fascinating organization to manage in light of the fact that it's more about programming and they presents various countenances of utilization in the fields of innovation. It's simply dismal in light of the fact that we have just couple of hours to listen to his addresses and I trust I can have some an opportunity to listen more. In the wake of going to the IBM we had our lunch at KFC at the bus since we are coming up short on time and we don't have enough time to go to other place. The second organization is the Accenture which is situated in Cyberpark, E. Rodriguez, Bagumbayan, Quezon City and is one of the early pioneers in business handling outsourcing on the Philippines. Business Services address the most squeezing needs of the customers by industry and by big business work. In the meantime they acknowledge distinctive customers to take care of their issues and give their necessities. Industry Business Services address the business and execution issues that are one of a kind to a given industry. Work Business Services address issues and procedures in particular undertaking capacities, for example, acquisition or HR, which are material crosswise over enterprises. Accenture Business Services traverse each of the four of our development stages Strategy, Digital, Technology and Operations.

What I liked?

What I liked about the two companies was, they both supply a decent work where we can truly use and help our aptitude concerning advancement furthermore improve it significantly more. They are not just a firm that plans to get a pack of cash, they expect to help each individual additionally and they regard every others as a buddy particularly among the Accenture in which they call each other on "First-name" premise. Since it makes the specialists wind up being significantly more comfortable with each different other and it truly constructs not simply work companions but rather in like manner relationship to each individual, I find it great.

What I didn’t like?

It's not by any means that I don't like the companies however IBM made us anticipate 2 hours before the workshop starts, well the majority of us perceive how the activity workings from Manila City so we pardon positively. I trust that they should set up some emergency course of action get a kick out of the chance to give elective speakers since it made us so put off on our next action which comes about to having the lunch inside the transport which I find to a great degree hard because of the way that the transport is moving and additionally we cannot expend fittingly.

Day 3

Today, I went on a seminar to Y4IT in a whole day time in SMX MOA

What I learned?

The first goal was in SMX MOA for they held Y4IT in that place. In that course we handled about PC related stuffs. Some speaker has higher position all alone organization. I learned in that convention that think beyond practical boundaries and aim for it, have a state of mind of diligent work and constancy. He or she can do it, you also can do it for no exception in accomplishing your goal but it is on yourself. I learned in this day that even a man is far from a focal business it can be neared if two group interface from its one objective. Furthermore in that day figured out how to acknowledge little things. One of the best topic I learned was discussed in the afternoon by a guy. He discusses the security about web and it is truly through I was astound that this sort of issue is been examining everywhere throughout the world. The astonishing thing that he said is that who truly possesses the web? I was contemplating that additionally who truly are the proprietors of the internet and why they are making little by little dissemination of association everywhere throughout the nation. I have discover that there are laws that we should concentrate on then it goes to the web convention and security we should going this sort of issue.

What I liked?

The thing that I enjoyed most in the Y4IT convention is the new magnificent things that is coming soon, sooner rather than later and the new innovation that is going to come like those arranged technologies talked about in the convention. What's more, I loved the one theme, talked about by sir. Al, it is about this web protocol and a few laws that can devastate web. Additionally I enjoyed the recreations given by the host of the program it was truly fun watching people in an extra-large screen. In manila the trademark is that you should visit the SM Mall of Asia. In that day it happened that our occasion is held in SMX Mall of Asia. I got energized for they say it is the greatest shopping center in the Asia. Our facilitator gives us an opportunity to go in the focal point of the shopping center. Have room schedule-wise to see what`s inside and its whole shape. I got astonished from its enormous limit and the stores inside. Something else that I preferred from that day is we went to Divisoria. Many individuals go there for they offer low cost from what you didn't envisioned. I didn't go to purchase garments for the individuals of my family because of the fact that our time is short. I just bought a few things that I actually needed. Like power banks and other stuffs. That day is so much fun and a late day to understanding off.

What I didn’t like?

Actually there is no topic that I really don’t like in that convention. It was really entertaining to the student like us that are focus on the field of information technology. The only thing that I didn’t like was the things I missed in that program while I was asleep because of how tired I was during the last day field trip.

Day 4

Today, I went on a seminar to MMDA Traffic Engineering in EDSA,Makati.

What I learned?

In that workshop I figured out how traffic lights are moving or should I say controlled. There was 2 sorts of overseeing traffic lights. In the first place was the one that is programmed, which it can consequently alter the traffic light, it relies on upon how substantial or light the traffic is. There`s a sensors underneath the ground and it can likewise figure how quick the auto is, whether it will go through to the sensors. and second the manual, this is typically utilized if there`s a unique events or if there`s a crisis.

What I liked?

On our 4th day I have considerably more to state. One thing that I enjoyed for that day is we went to people`s stop in Tagaytay. The landscape of the place is extremely lovely and quiet to watch. I enjoyed the way that as you start to went to the top you confront battles for the street that you will walk is having tiredness that you`re constrained will be draw down. In any case, the only thing that is important will be disposed, you were in the top you will be stunned its excellent landscape and astonishing spot of the place. Furthermore there you can purchase gift things that you can provide for your family. Furthermore, for that purchase to him. This day we went by is the spots that I won't overlook for I have a ton of fun and experience that I can share to other individuals. Enchanted kingdom is the place that I am eager to visit. For I will encounter fun and excite involvement. Along these lines, for that, I help not go to ride all the exciting rides that can find in the captivated kingdom. Fortunately for me for it is ride everything you can. I didn't anticipate from myself that can ride an unnerving and risky ride that I didn't accustomed to it. What's more, for that experience that happens for once in the life time. I won't overlook it for or will treasure it for I myself used to ride it and conquer the dread that I battle from it.

What I didn’t like?

I am grateful to visit Metropolitan Manila Development Authority for we can learn about their activity. In any case, I despise about as we visit MMDA and have speaker for the day, our facilitator gave him doubt however shockingly our speaker did not have a proper response to the question to our facilitator. One thing also in MMDA their facilitator is little for me, from my perception my other cohort did not have any sit and for that they remain as the speaker is talking.

Day 5

Today, I went on a seminar to UP Diliman

What I learned?

So in the last day of our field trip and seminar we go to the last place in our schedule which is University of the Philippines, so when we arrived I understood that is practically comparative in our school, the environment and the essence. Yet, as far as land size zone there are more greater than our school, perhaps more prominent to our school, however school size doesn't make a difference, it is the understudy will matter, on how they exceed expectations in their reviews. What's more, their labs are more prominent than our research facilities, l realized likewise that they utilizing scientific hypotheses and calculations to make their capstones work.

What I liked?

I loved the nature there, it resembled that I was strolling in our place, the general people in there are so kind, particularly those individuals loan us an opportunity to talk in front and share their reviews, capstones, and accomplishments, despite the fact that there are occupied right now, some of them they have work, and class, I extremely value that. Also, our guides in the grounds was so agreeable, as in each time I make inquiries, she will reply back in a pleasant way.

What I didn’t like?

In this way, because of my expectation on their place and offices I was baffled on their research centers, I felt that it was so enormous thus techy place. However, when I arrived, it was only a basic room where they can examine with their activities.

Seminar Overview

In this event held at social hall on January 23, 2016 we had a minor field trip and seminar for the compliance of our subject. We had three speakers that impart their insight in line to our field of our review. The first speaker we had is Mr. Ralph Gideon who talked about the graphic tools and the fundamentals of design. The second speaker is Ms. Shannen Yu Sapar who talked about the front end web development. The last speaker is Sir Nikko Comidoy, who is an alumni from USEP he took Bachelor of Science in Information Technology. He shared his experience in his stay on the university when he is a student.

1^st Speaker: Mr. Ralph Gideon

Mr. Ralph Gideon talked about the visual plan/art. He talked about the distinction between the visual outline and visual art contrast. He looks into between an artist and an designer. I discovered that visual plan is the art and routine of arranging and anticipating thoughts and encounters with visual and literary substance while visual art are art that structures, for example, drawing, painting, mold, printmaking, plan, creates, photography, video, film making and design. Additionally I gained from what he said the contrast between a designer and the planner. Designers, outline from what they arranged. It is restricted for they will take after the structure of the plan. While artist is realizing totally new possibilities, their creative ability is wide and profound.

What I liked?

I liked the speech of Mr. Ralph Gideon because he is very lenient to his speech. I saw in him that he really knows the concept of visual plan and art. He indicated that a designer is different from an artist.

What I didn’t like?

I didn’t like that he said that an artist is greater than a designer because in every part of the work they don’t have the same objective but they have their own unique goal.

2^nd Speaker: Ms. Shannen Yu Sapar

The second speaker Ms. Shannen Yu Sapar talked about the front end web development.  She explained what front end development is and how to suit yourself into it. She discussed about the difference between a front end and back end development. Also he discussed bootstrap and other frameworks that we can use in front web development. What are the advantages and the disadvantages? She discussed also about some tools in making a website. She discussed the difference of every tool to compare and see its difference. 

What I liked?

I liked that Ms. Shannen is from USeP Tagum and she indicated that front web development is one of the trends in this modern world. She thought us on how to use bootstrap and it’s very essential in our industry. And I also liked her beauty.

What I didn’t liked?

I didn’t liked it when Ms. Shannen limits her framework to bootstrap.

3^rd Speaker: Sir Nikko Comidoy

Sir Nikko talked about what happens in the industry after you will graduate. The discovering's that you gained from the school won't be appended as you will land in a position since it is a long way from what this present reality is. Additionally Sir Nikko talked about pitching to helps us gain certainty as we will venture on the stage and face the judges or enormous individual relating into huge organizations and business. What I gained from Sir Nikko is whether you flop once, twofold your exertion since it is insufficient, twofold the hard works and hard ship. Furthermore the learning's inside the classroom is insufficient to help you at work since we can take in outside from its perception and encounters. Every one of the encounters that you gained outside from the school will help you to turn out to be more capable to confront the new section as you will graduate and have a job.

What I liked?

I liked that Sir Nikko was inspiring us on how to be a technopreneur. He was the creator of doc banana, an app that uses digital image processing that can help us people to identify bananas. He also inspired us on how to finish in our course.

What I didn’t liked?

So far I don’t have of his speech that I didn’t like because he was also a good speaker and he taught us on how to finish our course.

Afternoon Session (The Start-Up Pitching Competition and Hackathon activity)

During the second part of the program, the Hackathon and Pitching Competition starts. We formed a team and joined the Hackathon Competition. Our team was composed of me, Carry Kim Good and Murphy John Ong. At the start of the competition, I was thinking come on its GG (GG is an expression meaning Good Game) because my laptop was borrowed by my girlfriend. I kept calling her but she was not picking it up. I was saying to my teammates while we wait for the laptop maybe we should just make a code from writing it on a piece of paper. We didn’t aim for the top because we were 45 minutes far behind from other competitors. Like yeah men we can’t do anything. We just writing our codes on a paper but we can’t debug it if it is right or wrong. After 45 minutes my girlfriend gave me the laptop. After the competition we were laughing because we were too late to start but we got a 3^rd place on that hackathon. Mongz said what if we didn’t have delayed what could have happened and it boosted our morale. We received cashed price and we were happy about it.

Team building Interpersonal skill is one of the requirements of the Field Trip and Seminar course to pass this course. The purpose of the activities is for us to develop our interpersonal skills which will help and make us build strong quality of relationship with our Field Trip and Seminar classmates throughout this activity. The purpose of the activities that is included in this particular event is for us to develop our interpersonal skills which will help or will provide us build strong relationship with our Field Trip and Seminar classmates. Being able to communicate or to express our ideas or thoughts effectively will enhance the experience as we visit those companies that we discussed to visit and learn from different professional speakers throughout the Philippines or throughout the world as we attend different culmination activities, events and seminars throughout our Field Trip and Seminar course. The activity that we called the Team building were held at the University of Southeastern Philippines, Obrero Campus. Our class was divided into two groups for the said activities because of the fact that we are more or less 80 students, that’s why we decided to divide to two so that the speaker or the one who will hold us in this activity will not have a hard time teaching and sharing their thoughts. The first group’s venue was at the Social Hall while the second group was assigned at the University of Southeastern Philippines, Obrero Campus, Dormitory Hostel. The first group’s schedule was held on July 20, 2015, while I on the other side, I was belonged to the second group that was scheduled July 21, 2015, a day after the first group has been held. I am very excited for this activity because of the fact that this activity can improve our relationship between ourselves. It can have a deeper understanding about our personalities and our companion’s personalities. We can understand their weakness and their strength according to their attitude, personalities and other perspective of their actions. With this activity it can have a great impact on ourselves. This activity can truly testify that “No man is an island”. A person or individual needs to interact or to communicate to others in order to live his life in this world. In fact this world composed of humans is connected with each other, communicating with each other just like a broom, the strand is connected to make a broom. Making it more effective and efficient to use. And this are the things that can we realize after making this event. Actually, I did not expect a lot of things to happen on this activity. I am just expecting some communicating with each other, with our classmates and even our teachers. Being in a group or a team that suites and does not discomfort you is like having a haven or a comfortable place that allows you to express freedom, your own feelings and comfort. That place that you can’t even imagine, where you can express your own opinion, your own perspective and your own afflictions. It also gives you the comfort that you need that you can’t feel alone. It is like your comfort zone that you can freely do what you want, do what you think is right with your own understanding and with your own perspective. And with this activity we can hope that we can find a team or a comrade that can approve what I said above. At the beginning of the activity, I was late, but I was thankful because of the fact that the host went to the rest room and I was like a ninja who came in like nothing happened. When the event started the facilitator or host request us to put our names on a tag so that she won’t have a hard time recognizing us. We formally start the course by a request of to God took after by the singing of the national anthem. The primary concern that the facilitator requested that as appears be, "What do we expect in our interpersonal skills?" Well, commonly we as a whole replay a similar answer which is we expect the interpersonal aptitudes and workshop to be fun, loads of learning the basic knowledge and skills. We are altogether stimulated in light of the fact that we understand that the activities could help us. Our facilitator's second activity is to make us do the right things that we need to do in the midst of the activities. Clearly I formed there that I will give my full cooperation and enthusiasm to every activity in the workshop so I can genuinely feel the course and expansion a lot of experience. I have to give my full cooperation in light of the fact that I would lean toward not to twist up essentially like a reasonable dude and do nothing, what might be the purpose behind the interpersonal aptitudes and class planning if I won't give all my best to the said movement. The following session of our event was called "I am me" and it talked reality in ourselves like knowing and seeing a more noteworthy measure of ourselves and to appreciate and know a more noteworthy measure of our partners or members of the family. The facilitators gave us some sheet of papers that have some photo of different sorts of people within the tree basically like what we did on our first errand we were suggested a conversation starter and that would be answered autonomously and the request was whether we find some way or another to figure it out how to pick where do we stay on that enormous tree or who are we on that given picture. Yet, before I picked a picture that speaks to me, I stop for a minute and think, what kind of a man I am. At that point when I look over the papers, searching for the picture that best suited to me, I found out and picture that truly gets my consideration and I chose to pick that picture. I pick the boy who just sleeps on the trunk. I think my personality was same to that boy. I am a boy that wants to finish the works fast so I can have a rest or free time after it. After choosing the picture, we were tasked to make another gathering, to make out of various individuals which I don't generally know and I don't know mostly of their names. Part of the direction is to share to the gathering of the picture we have picked and give the explanation behind why we picked the picture. So we examined and share our ideas, we listened to each other clarification and a short time later the snapshot of mindfulness has gone, we started giggling and making jokes to each other. By simply knowing a tad bit of data in each of us, we could make conversations with each other and cool about it. Before we enjoy a reprieve, we were given a sonnet entitled 'I am me'. We presented the sonnet in chorale. After the "I am me" activity, we took a 15 minutes break and eat the snacks gave by the in-charged facilitator which is already our schoolmates who had completed their team building exercises ahead of us. Its snack time, and it’s my favorite part of all events. The Free snack. In the wake of eating two breads and one juice, we had our last activity before the most expected lunch break. So our next errand was to draw an eating table. An eating table that contain our Family. Each of our relatives has a picture that will symbolizes their identity in the table. We were given an unadulterated paper and laid between us is a heap of tones. We took as much time as required to make our pulling in expressions to be striking, elegant, in vogue and noteworthy. We were altogether scattered in every spots, looking and thinking of it as so imperative. We cover more than twenty minutes for that. Each was to a great degree inventive with their setup and drawings. I find it a minor piece hard to put pictures on each relative that I have in light of the fact that they were every one of the unique. I am the youngest of our family, when I think about my family dining table, our family consist of 4 members. My Dad, Mom, my step brother and me. The first thing that came into my mind is our dining table is composed of the 2 different style. The first one is that we gather at our dining table and the second one is I eat at my computer table. Sometimes I don’t really feel to eat with them because of the fact that I am not too close to my mother. That’s why I distance myself and I rather be alone eating at my computer watching some stuffs. But it doesn’t happen all the time because of the fact that I consider our family bonding in hand. After the drawing session, we, before the day will be accumulated. This time we gather with three people each group. So the get-together would not disseminate without sharing their drawings. I understood that time, that it will be significant. Like it is the most delicate bit of us. This the inside and bases of ourselves as person. I basically sure that I know the general population in the assembled where I was dole out, yet I was stunned when each of them shares the stories behind their family feasting table drawings. To think such a solid individual he is, to the point that dismal stories of her life. From each get-together that I listen to their sharing is I can really say that we can't for the most part judge a man in one and only look, we can't state a thing without listening first to their story. A lot of understudy has been so sprightly on their outside appearances however the truth is they were engaging inside their souls as a result of an extensive measure of family issues they were standing up to. I can genuinely feel their fights because as they share their tears were falling and I was moved by their stories of separations and broken families. After our lunch, we gathered back inside our room at the school lodging. Before we started, there was an icebreaker. One of my friend sang and presented his certified capacity in playing a guitar. He has a tolerable voice. Then again, there was a get-together. The social affair however was the primary get-together we had. We would exhibit moving, singing, rapping, reporting and a play. We will give one of these what we have acknowledged and our slant about our past activities. The five social occasions self-assertively picked from one of these. We were given a copious of time to sharpen. I am especially excited to do that endeavor in light of the way that the specific case that goes to our social affair is the acting. We gather as a group and simply think about our daily lives in our school. We act like students and a teacher. Impersonating one another, impersonating teachers that we idolized. The main character of our play was Dapal. He is a college student and wants to graduate in his course. But suddenly with his classmates he was pulled by them to play games or do other stuffs while skipping class. But in the end of the day, Dapal realized that studying and going to school is more important than his vices with his friends. He realized that he needs to exert more effort in his school to graduate on his course. For our last activity we were given a touch of paper to compose our dedication. On the papers are clarification that we need to incorporate. The commitment to ourselves, for the people around us and to God. On this activity I just prayed and prayed for the best outcome for our Field Trip and Seminars. I also thanked God for these wonderful classmates and host that held such great event, thanked God for the wonderful experience that I learned so much information with my classmates.

Expectations on my next plane ride

First of all I expect on my next plane ride is just “Nah, I am not interested at all” because of the fact that riding on a plane is too much hassle for a guy like me. My last plane ride was last year January maybe? And trust me, it is too much of a hassle. Like my deodorant was confiscated and my brother’s deodorant was not. The heck? And my father’s lotion was confiscated and just uses his name and the employee gave it back. I was so disappointed about what happened because of the fact that I am just a guy who does not have a name. I don’t have the power to talk back because of the fact that I can’t and I won’t. So much for my old stories, back to the topic. My last plane ride was so much fun. I can remember the memories that I had, not on the airport though, those valuable memory in my life that I truly appreciated in each and every moment of it. Those memories are etched, saved and prized in my mind and no doubt about it. It is similar of going inside a time machine conveying the same overpowering feeling that you had before when you first made that valuable memory of your life. It is an inclination that I couldn't clarify in just one basic word. It makes me feel invigorated and relaxing. It makes me feel that life is so much fun and exciting because of the fact that it can make me happy with just these simple memories that i have in my nineteen years of existence. It also makes me understand how favored I am that I had experience those sublime things that few man can only encounter because of the fact that they don't have much time or it just they don't have any interest and money or whatsoever. I still recall when I have my flight to Cebu with my father, mother and my brother. We rode a taxi to the airport 6am in the morning because of the fact that our flight is 11am. When we arrived at the airport it seems that our luck is pretty damn bad because of the fact that our flight time is moved to 4pm because of the fact that the country is experiencing some weather issues somewhere in Surigao. Many of us passengers were pissed but we have nothing else to do but to accept the rescheduling and just wait for about 7 hours in the airport. My memories in the airport was so pretty damn bad, I can’t even explain myself of how disappointed and how pissed I am that day. It was just so boring sitting on a chair with just looking at the clock whining down at it makes me feel so irritated that I just wanted to burst and go home with my baggage. I tried make myself asleep but hell yeah, I can’t sleep because of the fact that the airport is so noisy. I bought my self a coffee to just relieve myself for a bit and yes, it calmed me down a little but it isn’t enough to relieve all my irritation. After a few hours or maybe exactly 5 hours of waiting at the airport lounge. Finally, we can now enter the passengers lounge. We paid two hundred pesos individually for our terminal fare.  And thanks God that we only have to wait 3 hours before we can ride my first plane ride. We ate lunch at the passengers lounge. We checked in our baggage a second time and sucks my deodorant got confiscated and my brother’s doesn’t like just I said a while ago. I got pissed off again and just keep my temp low. And guess what like I said a while ago my father’s lotion was confiscated also and he just uses he’s name and the employee gave it back. When we settled down ourselves, I said to my father that why didn’t you get my deodorant back if their security is just like that? I was so pissed that I don’t want to ride the plane and go to Cebu. I feel like I just want to go home and get the hell out of here. But again, I controlled myself and played with my android phone. After a long wait, we can now finally ride the plane. I felt nervous at first because of the fact that some movies I saw in the past has this heart breaking stories which I don’t want to happen.  And on the other side I feel excited that I can watch my own city at the sky, what would it looks like and if I get lucky I can see our own house. While I ride on the plane I was on the front part of it. While we are in the ground I took time to talk to God, the one who has the power to make myself calm and make our trip safe so that we can arrive at our destination with ease. And that time it has also a storm around Surigao and it makes me feel uneasy. Because of us human beings, we destroyed our planet and make the climate change. We humans called it global warming. Global warming, a gradual increase in the overall temperature of the earth's atmosphere generally attributed to the greenhouse effect caused by increased levels of carbon dioxide, chlorofluorocarbons, and other pollutants. Source: Wikipedia. I know that storm is a natural disaster but in the other hand there is a chance that the storm was caused because of the fact that our planet was affected of global warming. And it is really alarming because I have this uneasy feelings riding on the plane that I can see the clouds color are very dark. I thought that the storm could blow away our plane and worst case scenario plane crash and I don’t want that to happen. So I prayed to God that make this trip safe and make myself calm that I will no longer think about those bad kind of things that I had in my mind. When the plane is ready to go, the crew members of the plane was instructing us passengers what to do. If I recall it correctly they thought as on how to use the oxygen and where does the paper bag was placed. They instructed us on how to use it for emergency purposes when some technicalities will occur in every individuals or in the plane. When the plane took off, my heart felt so happy because of the fact that the plane is very fast. I had a feeling that I want to try that speed it too using my own car. It felt exciting and I felt thrilled and I know that I and some drivers has the same feelings like me because of the fact that the plane was so incredibly fast. After the plane flew, I felt so happy because of the fact that I am seated next to a window and I can see Davao city up in the sky. My expectations were true that they are so tiny that I can step on them. But after some seconds, I felt like my jaw is on pain. I don’t know what happened but I took my chewing gum on my pocket and started to chew it. I had on my mind that it can relieve the pain. And yes, it works perfectly. I asked my mother why, and she answered to me that she doesn’t know why. I think because it’s the air pressure when going up the sky or maybe it’s just a coincidence that it was painful or maybe it’s just because it was my first time and it doesn’t make sense. After the crew said that we can took off our seatbelt I looked at on the window. It shocked me because I didn’t see my expectations but I just saw a black clouds. I felt uneasy again because of the fact that the country is experiencing some rainstorm and probably a storm on Surigao area. I took my phone and listen to my headset. Music can make me calm down sometime because of the fact that music soothes your feelings. The soothing power of music is well-established. It has a unique link to our emotions, so can be an extremely effective stress management tool. Listening to music can have a tremendously relaxing effect on our minds and bodies, especially slow, quiet classical music. This type of music can have a beneficial effect on our physiological functions, slowing the pulse and heart rate, lowering blood pressure, and decreasing the levels of stress hormones. As music can absorb our attention, it acts as a distraction at the same time it helps to explore emotions. This means it can be a great aid to meditation, helping to prevent the mind wandering. Perhaps it feels like a waste of time, not helping to achieve anything. But as we know, productivity increases when stress is reduced, so this is another area where you can gain vast rewards. It just takes a small effort to begin with. Some crews was selling goods in the plane, I bought one bread and I don’t know what the bread name is, I just simply took it from the crew and asked on how much and I paid for it. When the crew was done selling, they had a game and I don’t remember what was that game and they gave a prize to the winners. The prize was a souvenirs like t-shirt maybe. It was fun because the girl crew there was so pretty and I can’t take my eyes off her. And I was thinking if I can saw her again on my next flight which is going home to Davao. But it doesn’t come true. And it’s okay I was just appreciating her beauty and I don’t care much because of the fact that I don’t have that big interest in her. When I was on my seat watching the window, I wondered why does the wings move and it feels like it will break because of the fact that how it moves so much. But luckily I remembered one of my lessons that why does plane wings move because of the fact that turbulence is the motion of air traveling up and down. This makes the wings give that 'bouncing' effect. But airplane wings are extremely strong and are made to flex. When you fly back and the plane is taking off look at the wings as the plane accelerates. You'll notice that they will be lifting, and this is completely normal. This is the lift motion taking effect and makes the airplane fly. That is why wings are so flexible and they can definitely take a beating from turbulence and still touch down safely. But so much for that, after a thirty minutes of listening to music, more or less, it made me calmed down and I saw some clear skies on my window. I saw the ocean and after a few seconds I saw the islands. I don’t know if that is Cebu or not. But I feel relieved because of the fact that God listened to my prayers and he could make our trip safe and sound. It's great to reminisce about good memories of my past. It was enjoyable when it was today. So learning to enjoy today has two benefits: it gives me happiness right now, and it becomes a good memory later. Life makes recollections and recollections makes life. I am hoping to make more great memory with the goal that I can make life out of it. I need to break free from everything that chains me and I need to go past the outskirt of my life. So I can make my life with no regrets and just like what they said “You only live once”.

Field Trip and Seminar, is one of the needed subject of our course to graduate on Information Technology in University of Southeastern Philippines, Obrero Campus. Furthermore, the planning for this takes measure of time to arrange. This subject will offer us some assistance with familiarizing new patterns or new technologies and improvements in our skills and learn new innovation ideas through this courses that we call Field Trip and Seminars and also gain some communication in other part of the course of our trip. We can also learn through sharing and expressing our own ideas and also they express or share their own ideas to compare or contrast on our own. Every individual that participated in this course has their own unique ideas and unique skills and with this Field Trip and Seminars we can have our own chances to express and share our ideas to others. We are provided to keep a journal consolidating the theoretical and experimental segments of the venture, offering us some assistance with improving our discernment and bits of learning and fulfill our urge to learn more about our modern world and the modern technology that we have but we don't know about or we don't experience it with our own hands. The importance of this subject is because with the presentation of PC's, the business world was changed until the end of time. Using PC's with programming, associations and the use of information to develop or to ensure that their ranges of aptitude run effortlessly. They use some method to utilize the data in different ways that we can imagine or we can work in our IT daily lives. In fact this course will be a great boost to our hidden talents because they say that through experience comes with a great knowledge and the fact that this course can grant us that experience I am grateful to be one of the students that will attend on this course and great event. Utilizing information utilization, many experts or professionals can see changes in the overall markets with a far more quick than they expected what they can do. They purchase programming software and hardware that offers them some assistance to accomplish or to finish their work with faster and greater efficiency. Many experts or professionals have their own specific software, systems, application, hardware and devices expected to keep their item or products intact. Be that as it may, before we can do this Field Trip and Seminar Activities we need to pass the majority of the given prerequisites and ought to look for endorsement or approval from our University President. With this circumstances, there's a possibility that the Field Trip and Seminar Subject will be rejected to have field trips and seminar visits outside the Davao Region because of the fact that their Field trip and seminars were held a year back because of the fact that some incident somewhere in the Philippines caused the Commission on Higher Education to doubt and hesitate to approve this kind of activity because of that never wanted incident happened somewhere in the Philippines. That's why CHED or Commission on Higher Education, in the blink of an eye is very strict in embracing any field trip recommendation. They wanted the class to pass most of the essentials requirements to the University and for them (CHED). A sum of 26 documents ought to be arranged before the end of the late spring. In light of its long arranging, a meeting was held in the midst of summer to discuss some fundamental matters, for instance, picking what models in the event that we take for our Fieldtrip and Seminar. There are three models available model A, model B and model C. By then in the wake of displaying of the three Models, our facilitator discuss what are these three models, what are the activities, where these activities to be held are and what sum would it cost for the each of the three models and imagine a scenario in which we expect for the picked model. The model A where quickly talked about, our facilitator brought up the things we can pick up, the point of interest and impediment for this models. Model B was out of my mind because of the fact that I don’t remember what it was but most likely it is not so far with model A. Model C obliges three minor field trips inside Mindanao, four courses for sixteen hours similarly inside Mindanao and a 2-hour Interpersonal Skills Seminar. Out of the three model decision this one is the slightest costly. For the three models that had been given, model C is most likely the least expensive among each of the three models. After the exchange of the three unique models, our facilitator said that we ought to talk about this picking of models with our guardians and don't settle on our own. We talk it all about quickly with them, what is the advantages we can get from the three distinct models. That's why I discussed it with my parents which model should we pick, remembering our budget for this kind of event. Cash is earned through diligent work which is exceptionally troublesome particularly for individuals such as us who can't have fast money. If I were to pick I will pick the model A but with some circumstances and when I think that the cost will be I decided to pick whether A or C. But I did not told my mom and dad to pick what I like. I just let them what model to pick. They asked me what is about my ideas. I said to them that most of our class wants the Model A because of the fact that they want to experience Manila and because Manila is one of the most improve city in the Philippines in terms of technology. They asked me too if they picked the Model C what is the benefits of it and I explained to them that we will have our field trip within the Mindanao Region and luckily they both agreed to pick Model A. Maybe they understand that we their sons or daughter need a breathing room and needed a new environment to explore new things and new ideas that they will experience just by travelling and experiencing it in reality not just in virtual or in the book or what we can see in the videos.

  As my day started, July 17 2014, our facilitator gave us wonderful mindsets that can change our daily living. The usual mindset and the alternative mindset are the mindsets that we talked about in our second meeting of our subject IT electives 1 (technopreneurship). Before we tackle about the alternative mindset, let us tackle first the usual mindsets of the parents and the students nowadays. “Go to school, get good grades, be a fine employee” this is the common or usual mindset and this mindset is the one that I want to be because of the fact that I am a lazy person and I am not confident enough to risk some of my time. “Go to school, get good grades, become an employer not to be an employee”. This mindset questioned my mind, why do you want to become a good employee if you have what it takes to be a good employer. I preferred the usual mindset because for the revised mindset is such a drag for me. I have my doubt with the revised mindset because this mindset is too much of a gamble. If you succeed then its good; the fact that you can earn more money and the fact when you fail then you will also face bigger consequences. It’s like betting with a 30% chance of winning, smaller chance of winning; higher prizes. The advantage of the revised mindset are you are the boss, you are the one who command your workers what to do, you are earning money and you are the one who gives salary or pay checks to your workers. But this mindset has its own disadvantage. It takes a lot of time and effort to be successful. You can’t assure that your business or company will succeed. It will take a lot of money and investments to succeed. It is such a drag to make your own company.  As I said before this mindset is a gamble. It takes a lot of time and guts to succeed. “Life is basically a soap bubble. It rides on the wind, flying here and there and before you realize it - pop! It is gone. When it's about to disappear, you think that you could have flown a little higher. But by the time you realize it, it's already too late.” This quote was said by Gintoki Sakata, a fictional character in the anime show Gintama. Yea! This quote was true to the point. Where life is like a soap bubble, when you are just like one. When you ride along the flow and make your own decisions but the fact that you are enjoying your life that you don’t even realize that you do bad things. Like Steve Jobs, he was deceived by his rude attitude that made his life a failure because of the fact that he doesn’t even realize that he is not a god that can be on the top forever whenever he wants. The time that he managed to realized that his confidence devours him. Someone took the initiative and made him pay for his attitude. Back to the topic, this quote can make me mature enough that I don’t want to become like Steve Jobs when attitude devours his happy life. It is such a drag to make your own company.  As I said before this mindset is a gamble. It takes a lot of time and guts to succeed. The advantages of the usual mindset are you can have a stable job, stable salary, etc. This mindset is not such a drag compared to the alternative mindset.  Your boss will command you and you will give him what he wants. I think this usual mindset only has one disadvantage. The fact you can’t earn more income than your boss or employer. Still as I said before it is your own choice or decisions. It’s up to us if what kind of mindset we will have in the near future. “What is right? What is wrong? In this mixed up world, deciding what is right and what is wrong is not easy. You can't just go by somebody else's rules. If you let yourself be controlled like that, you will just become a puppet that can't make his decisions on its own. You have to live by your rules.” This quote was said by Gintoki Sakata. You will have your own decision makings in the near future. As he said in the quote the right and the wrong is not easy to decide because of some circumstances will be there in the near future. But the facts that your life is ruled by anyone else then you are just a puppet that can be controlled by others. Live your life without limitation, live your life to the fullest, live your life on what you want to become, live life without hesitation, and live life without making regrets in the near future. All of this inspiring message struck me because as of now I am not satisfied of being who am I because of the fact that I am not ready to face big consequences because I felt that I can’t overcome it with my own hands. It’s on ourselves on how we can manage our lives and how we could reach our goals in our own perspectives and mind sets. We must make some people your inspiration or make them influence us that through their hard works and the will that they never gives up, they achieved the goals in their lives and became successful and we can put it into our minds that there is a possibility that we could follow their footsteps or their works. Again, like Gintoki Sakata said “You yourself have to change first, or nothing will change for you”. This quote is amazing because from the quote that he said our lives started in us. You want to be a wealthy being then change yourself, work hard, move forward and make your decisions without making any regrets in the end of your journey.
