POVERTY AROUND THE WORLD...as we gaze around our surroundings, we can see how extensive poverty is nowadays. Throughout this poverty, we people keep on blaming the Politicians or the people who are in the position. We blame them for corrupting our monies and affluence does we address them as the corrupt officials. This corrupt officials are supposed to be the one who are helping our country to rise from poverty, but instead, they are the one who is pulling us down. Because of that many families nowadays are suffering from poverty, many childrens cannot go to school, many unemployed citizens and a lot more.

POVERTY IN MY FAMILY....honestly our family don't really have issues/problem when it comes to money, but were not also rich, I can say that were only in the middle class and proud to be in the middle class, unlike those in the upper class. They may have a lot of money or more wealth but not all of them do experiece complete and real happiness, and we all know that. Next is the class who are experiencing poverty. I'm thankful that my parents were able to send me, my sister and brother to a private school and provide us with what we need.

POVERTY IN ME???....hmmm....I consider myself poor when I don't have money to buy my other necessities and that really bothers me sometimes, specially when my mom won't give me money because she knows that I would only spent it buying things that she thinks that is not necessary for me to procure. It maybe shallow but it's true, I felt like I'm broke when I don't have money in my wallet.

SECURITY

Security in Zamboanga...hmmm...As far as I know, there are a lot of people who are not from Zamboanga are afraid to visit Zamboanga, because before they know that Zamboanga is known as the Latin City, but now it is well know as the land where there are many bombs. That is why there are many people who are afraid in going to Zamboanga, but for me I dont really find Zamboanga a very chaotic place. I've been living here in Zamboanga for 12years, and there is only one circumstance that feared me. It is when the time when the Marines tried to chase off the MILF in Cabatangan, and since I lived in San Roque my family, aunts, cousins and every family in San Roque are very terrified. After that nothing more that is scaring happened, but except for the other places in Zamboanga like Basila, Jolo and more.

Everytime I would go to manila, my relatives would always ask me, how is Zamboanga going? is it still safe to live in Zamboanga? but honestly I really dont find the whole Zamboanga City a very chaotic place, maybe in some places in Zamboanga, but not in the whole Zamboanga City.

When it comes to its security, I can say that they really give enough ettention when it comes to Zamboanga's security.

I remembered when I was in fourth year when kidnappings are very extensive, the police immediately made an act regarding the issue. They instantly got informations regarding the descripition of the car being used in kidnapping(white van), the strategy and more, this is to alert us also. I think it only last for three months,but I'm not sure if they were able to catch the kidnappers.

I hope sooner or later, people will start to appreciate Zamboanga's real beauty or Zamboanga's positive side, aside from its negative sides.

MOVIES...MOVIES...MOVIES...C",)

MOVIES....I personally really love watching movies. But I prefer to watch movies at home than in a movie house, because at home I feel more secure and at ease.

I can say that I'm a movie fanatic, because I really love doing movie marathon, especially on summer with my cousins. I can still remember whenever my cousins would have an overnight in our house, there is always one thing that we kept on doing, which is to watch movies especially horror movies and take note, we don't only watch one movie, but instead we watch a lot of movies continuously and stop watching whenever we felt like we want to sleep already. As far as I can remember the earliest time we slept after watching was I think around 2am, and our late time was 4:30am, but one time, after watching my other cousin and I did not sleep yet, what we did was to have a chat after watching, and we ended chatting at around 6am. After that we still tried to have a nap, and luckily we were able to have a sleep even just for 2hrs.

Now you know how movie addict I'am, but I don't only watch movies but also those movies with series and episodes, and when I started watching with series or episodes, I can say that no one can ever stop me from watching, because I don't like the feeling like there is something hanging. Usually I would start watching early in the morning, maybe at around 8am and when it's time for me to eat already, I would eat in front of the TV, and I would stop watching at around 12 or 1am.

My favorite type of movie are Korean movies. Korean movies are my number one favorite. Whether it's a love story, teenagers love story, romantic comedy, comedy and horror. One reason why I love Korean movies, is because their storyline are very unique,and it has a lot of twist.That's why I have more Korean idols than the artist in the Philippines or in Hollywood. I also love Hollywood movies, especially romantic comedy and horror movies and lastly I also sometimes watch massacre or bloodbath movies.

To all those who are not fond of watching movies, I'm encouraging you to try watch some movies, because I can really say that watching movies does not only entertains us, but it also gives us some lessons, insights and some realizations about life.

MOTHER

My mother is Elizabeth Caballes. For me my mom is the best mom ever. She's the best for me not only because she's my mom, but because I know she already sacrificed a lot of things for us and I thank her for that. My mom is a very strong woman despite of all the hardships that she experienced from the past, she always finds a way to smile again and not to give up.


When my friend lost her mom, I tried to envision myself in her situation. After imagining, I said to myself I rather die first than my mom, because I really dont know how I am supposed to continue living without her, because all my life I grew up with my mom , brother and sister, and not really with my dad,because he works abroad.

Throughout my downfalls my mom is always there beside me, to comfort me and lift me up.
If i were given a chance to choose my mom, I will always choose her, because there is no other mother can replace her from my heart. She will always be my one and only mom, and I will never get tired of loving her, because like her , she never gets tired in making us feel how much she loves us.

I love you so much mama!!c",)
