Know me more...
Hello, I’m Joy. I’m fifteen, tall and fair skinned. For me, my life is near to perfect, I have a lot of friends and we all get along and I have a family who cares for me. I am not the fly chick you see in malls and I like it that way, I want myself to be simple but elegant, I love it that way. My friends always remind me that I am beautiful and blessed, they never ever even once told me that I’m bland and a not-so-interesting kid. I’m always happy with them; we are just like soul sisters and brothers. I can’t say that we all have the same interests but we understand each other and we respect each other. Some of my friends likes performing, some studies but me I love playing the piano, fashion, creating looks and taking pictures of them. I have a passion for fashion. We even do amateur pictorials sometimes, they’re not professionally made but we enjoyed it. Since we’re talking fashion here, don’t you like Gucci? Oh, I adore Gucci and Armani, Valentino and many more. I would really love to have all of those super stuffs from those super designers and I also love to travel to fashion places like Milan and France. So, that’s all. Hope you find those interesting as I find those entire cool.

Below is an inspirational poem where you can pick good values that can improve every day's life.
Desiderata
-- written by Max Ehrmann in the 1920s --
Not "Found in Old St. Paul's Church"! -- see below
Go placidly amid the noise and the haste,
and remember what peace there may be in silence.
As far as possible, without surrender,
be on good terms with all persons.
Speak your truth quietly and clearly;
and listen to others,
even to the dull and the ignorant;
they too have their story.
Avoid loud and aggressive persons;
they are vexatious to the spirit.
If you compare yourself with others,
you may become vain or bitter,
for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself.
Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans.
Keep interested in your own career, however humble;
it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time.
Exercise caution in your business affairs,
for the world is full of trickery.
But let this not blind you to what virtue there is;
many persons strive for high ideals,
and everywhere life is full of heroism.
Be yourself. Especially do not feign affection.
Neither be cynical about love,
for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment,
it is as perennial as the grass.
Take kindly the counsel of the years,
gracefully surrendering the things of youth.
Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune.
But do not distress yourself with dark imaginings.
Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness.
Beyond a wholesome discipline,
be gentle with yourself.
You are a child of the universe
no less than the trees and the stars;
you have a right to be here.
And whether or not it is clear to you,
no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.
Therefore be at peace with God,
whatever you conceive Him to be.
And whatever your labors and aspirations,
in the noisy confusion of life,
keep peace in your soul.
With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams,
it is still a beautiful world.
Be cheerful. Strive to be happy.

MORINGA, MALUNGGAY, SAJINA
Moringa is the English name, Malunggay in Philippines, Sajina in Indian Subcontinent and South East Asia. It grows wildly in hot tropical climate.
Moringa is a herb known all over the world. But only recently in the U.S. It may provide the energy, nutrition and health you've been looking for.
Moringa is a remarkable discovery, which can make biga difference in your health.Gathering scientific evidence shows what has been known for thousands of years by people in the tropical parts of the world: Moringa is nature's medicine cabinet.
It is best known as a source of nutrition and a natural energy booster.Loaded with nutrients, vitamins and amino acids, it replenishes your body and provides what you need to get through a hectic weekday or active weekend.
As the candles multiply on top of your birthday cake, you may find yourself slowing down and saying, I just don't feel young any more.Moringa gives back some of the energy you thought was lost.
According to Inquirer malunggay is a gram for gram seven times more concentrated in Vitamin C compared to oranges, four times the calcium and twice the protein compared to milk, four times the vitamin A in carrots, and three times the potassium content of bananas. It also contains minerals and amino acids, and has been cited by the Asian Vegetable Research Development Center in Taiwan as the most nutritious plant in the world. Malunggay also helps reduce blood pressure.
But when do we realize to eat this kind of vegetable. When we age 70. We must start eating nutritious food when we our young.
Daily must-eat foods
Galvez-Tan’s “daily must-eat foods” are:
• Vegetables, eaten raw or as salad or pickled
• Fruits, all kinds, eaten fresh or taken as fresh juice
“Our diet today is filled with empty calories, carcinogens (cancer-causing chemicals), high-sugar, foods high in bad cholesterol and fat. Eating a plant-based diet will boost your health and well-being,” he said.
On the other hand, Galvez-Tan’s “must-avoid foods” are:
“The World Cancer Research Fund’s report in 2007, based on a five-year project spanning more than 7,000 clinical studies, declared that all people should immediately stop buying and eating processed meat products and that all processed meat should be avoided for life. Processed meats contain chemical additives that greatly increase the risk of various cancers, including colorectal cancer, breast cancer, prostate cancer, leukemia, brain tumors, and pancreatic cancer,” he said.
A lot of malunggay grows everywhere. It is easy to grow, especially here in the Philippines. Life can be more pleasing if we live life with a healthy way. While kids are young parents must train their child to love vegies and fruits.

God was so good he was good... very good... more than what we expected...
Life nowadays is surely hard but it would be easier if we have faith in God... Life is a an extraordinary challenge. A prayer would help, but it needs to be sincere. Families and peers are important too.
Remember it doesn't mean that we only need to concentrate on intelligence we must also remember that intelligence is not the only thing that surrounds us. God is important, friends and peers.
An inspirational lyrics of a song for the Filipinos:
God Will Make A Way
By Don Moen
God will make a way Where there seems to be no way He works In ways we cannot see, He will make a way for me. He will be my guide, Hold me closely to his side, With love and strength for each new day He will make a way, He will make a way.
By the roadway in the wilderness He’ll lead me; And rivers in the desert will I see. Heaven and earth will fade But his words will still remain. He will do something new today.
With love and strength For each new day, He will make a way, He will make a way.
-May this song inspire us...

It's Friday It's the day
That I love the most. It is because the next day is Saturday no classes. Students mostly like days that has no classes. It feels great to rest. Life without rest is not life. We must have a break for we are not machines.
Things this day were great. I was in a very good mood. But I was almost late today. This a lot of assignments were given. Science and Technology Education Center is sure a great school.
It's Friday Almost Saturday

344 cases for an h1n1 influenza
1% fatality rate for dengue
Which is more deadly?
An h1n1 virus is a virus present in pigs that jumped to humans.It Started in Mexico and moved to other places. In the Philippines, we have 344 cases but still 0 deaths. The problem with H1N1 virus is that it is very contagious. It easily affects human with less resistance.
According to the news, in order to prevent catching the H1N1 virus, it is important to wash your hands properly and stay away from people infected by the virus. To prevent H1N1, proper hand hygiene is the single most important means for preventing the spread of infection in schools, offices and health care facilities. Frequently wash hands with soap and water for 15-20 seconds. When soap and water are not available, use alcohol-based disposable hand wipes or gel sanitizers.
In health care settings, disinfecting hard surfaces is also critical to prevent the spread of infection between patients and health care workers. Avoid touching community surfaces where the virus can live for up to 2-8 hours outside the body.
There is no vaccine yet available right now to protect against the H1N1 virus. There are everyday actions that can help prevent the spread of the virus such as the following:
* Cover your nose and mouth with a tissue when you cough or sneeze. Throw the tissue in the trash after you use it. * Wash your hands often with soap and water, especially after you cough or sneeze. Alcohol-based hand cleaners are also effective. * Avoid touching your eyes, nose or mouth. Germs spread this way. * Try to avoid close contact with sick people. * Stay home if you are sick for 7 days after your symptoms begin or until you have been symptom-free for 24 hours, whichever is longer. This is to keep from infecting others and spreading the virus further.
The symptoms of H1N1 flu virus in people are similar to the symptoms of seasonal flu and include fever, cough, sore throat, runny or stuffy nose, body aches, headache, chills and fatigue. A significant number of people who have been infected with this virus also have reported diarrhea and vomiting. Also, like seasonal flu, severe illnesses and death has occurred as a result of illness associated with this virus.
So much for H1N1... Here goes DENGUE
A virus caused by mosquitoes and dirty environment which kills 2 to 3 person each week. With thousands of cases reported each year, hundreds are killed. The difference of dengue is that it isn't contagious like H1N1. Aedes mosquitoes are the carrier of Dengue viruses. These mosquitoes can be easily distinguished as it is larger in size and have black and white stripes on its body, so it is sometimes called tiger mosquitoes. They usually bite during the day time. They breed in artificial accumulation of fresh water, such as broken bottles and tins, flower pots, coconut shell, tree holes etc. Some Aedes mosquitoes prefer to breed, rest, and feed on humans in gardens, where it is cool and shady and where they find small collections of fresh water to lay their eggs, such as at the bases of large leaves. Dengue Fever is more prevalent during the rainy season, so adjusting your itinerary can reduce your risk. Mosquitoes that carry the dengue viruses like to bite during the daytime in shady areas, and on cloudy, overcast days. Avoiding areas with mosquitoes and taking protective steps against mosquito bites will reduce your risk of exposure.
Prevention comes to our mind when we hear of virus and illness. Prevention tips for dengue:
-Clean your surroundings -Don't leave stagnant water for instance in a vase or a tire which the mosquitoes can lay there eggs and breed. -social awareness -water tanks and containers should be covered -mosquito nets may be used -If you have fever, immediately consult a qualified homoeopathic doctors or allopathic doctors. Get hospitalized either in a clinic or hospital for proper observation and treatment. -Use a lotion that prevents mosquitoes from biting you if possible -If possible stay on screened places -Avoid wearing dark color clothes
Remember in everything we do God is on our side.
The best way is to use the 5's

Coastal or Roadside Cleanup
This 8:00 am we did a coastal cleanup but not really in the coast it was more like a roadside cleanup. It was fun and it was my first time. Since I entered high school life I tried a lot of experiences that I have never tried. For instance this coastal cleanup. We cleaned near Collin Wood. It was fun though it was tiring. I don't have any picture since nobody brought a cam.
When I started cleaning with my classmates I felt for the nature because there were a lot of trash. It was dirty. Even though we were many we did not finish cleaning the said place. After cleaning I went back to school then I went home I was so tired. But because I have lot of assignments I did not sleep.
