Short Stories and Reflections

1. Gulayan Klasrum

My Gulayan Klasrum




  Since when I was young my Nanay has her garden at our backyard. She has bitter gourd, peppers and sweet potatoes. But because my Nanay has to live in Ilocos for some family matter. My aunt and uncle is the only one left in the house and because of their working hours they doesn't have time to water the plants, causes it to withered. When my Nanay comeback from the province, she felt sad. She continue to start by seedlings then plant and now she has tomatoes, sweet potatoes and peppers in our backyard.



I choose to plant tomatoes because my Nanay teach me how to plant and it is useful in cooking food. Tomatoes have tons of benefits like diet increases, decrease risk of developing heart disease, diabetes and cancer diseases. Tomatoes are also an excellent source of vitamin C and other antioxidants.We started to plant last September, when Nanay came back from the province. I expect to harvest my plant within 3 more months. Our gulayan klasrum in our backyard can inspire our neighborhood and friend to also plant to have their own.

Collection

Hand Written Letters and Some Memorable Things

I had collect a lot of things, souvenir, stuffs and most especially hand written letters, given by my love ones and friends. I always keep them inside my cabinet. The important thing about keeping small things that you receives from time to time is that one day you will can look back on the memories that you have. 


3. The House on Zapote Street
 Reportage 


There will be always a person whom we are not expecting to do bad things on us. Not all of the families, have happy and good life. We can't choose on how our destiny or fate will lead us in the end. 

4. Puppy Love
Puppy Love

There are changes in our life that we just embrace. The decisions that will affect our entire life. Maybe fate is just a fate, we don't have control on what will happen. But one thing is for sure, the love within deep inside of us leads to have better and happy life.

5. Ka bel

Our society has its flaws in our government, the relationship with the workers and the companies. This poem arouse me to see more deeply. Everyone must have a justice, fair rights and voice to speak out.
