Time For An Immersion Experience

        Our immersion starts on some day of November. The goal of immersion is to let us, the students realize that we are more blessed in terms of financial matters. Students are obliged to join in an immersion activity. Wherin  students are going to adopt the waytheir family foster live. I just experience immersion once, because of the time difficulty. During that time, we are still having our MTAP session.
         It was 1 p.m.  in the afternoon when we started to travel to salvacion. It was a bad day to travel and the road is kinda roughy but we still made it in time. When we first arrived in the said place it was muddy because of the rain. We just saw our classmates in the bench, with a smiling faces with their foster sisters and brothers. We wait for a while in the bench for our teacher to assign us in our respective houses. It was already 2 p.m. our teacher decided to show us around so that it wouldn't be a waste of time for us. We was directed to a pig pen, you have to go through first in a rice field, there is a small space of a way where you can go through. We was amaze by the view. We was directed by a woman, she was the owner. I decidded to walk in ka bare foot because it's wet and muddy. I was surprised to see those pigs. They were huge! There was a mother pig which has piglets., I think there's a six of them. In the other side there was a dog which has a several puppies. We asked the owner about her business. We decided to go back in the meeting place when we saw the dark clouds coming in our way. Small drops fall from the sky. Some of our classmate already go home. We stayed a little longer becaude of the rain, it was strong. We decided to go home eventhough, there is rain. We were in the middle of the road. It was kinda dark because of the bad weather. We reach PAX safe but we are all wet. Atleast we had a really good time. This is the BEST IMMERSION EVER!!!

What I am 10 Years From Now....

             " It's only when we truly know and understand that we have a limited time on earth -- and that we have no way of knowing when our time is up -- that we will begin to live each day to the fullest, as if it was the only one we had."
        
              There is nothing on Earth that would last forever. Even, us, humans that comes from the form of our Creator would experience death. Everything has an epiration date.
               Now, I'm in 15 years of my existence and I am happy with the things that I've already done in my life. I wouldn't be here if my parents didn't help me out. they are the one that I should thank for, for their understanding, for their support and love. since I was a kid, I always want to be something different, to do such things that our mind can't imagine and I want my parents to be proud of me. During those years, I already dreaming to become a Computer Engineer because of my father's dream. He dream that his child would be a professional Computer Engineer someday. I want to accomplish that dream for my father.
                I'm in 4th Year High School now. Many things can happen that we don't expect. There's a famous saying that " Expect the Unexpected!"
                Ten years from now i've probably be a profesional Computer Engineer in a respective company. During that time, I'm already 25 years old. Living in a beautiful village with a family but before that I should gave importance first to my family. They should be my first prioritize. Before that, I wouldn't marry someone if my parents are not in good state. I should gave them first their needs. I alwys dreaming of having our own house. Well, unfortunately, we don't own a house for ourselves or we don't have a permanent address. I spent my whole life transferring. sometimes, I live in the house of my aunties or in my grandparents. I will gave them everything that they need. It would serve as a payment for their doings. It' the only way I can say thank you. I would spent my life serving them and loving them.

Teenage Marriage

                                                                   PART I
                                         Teenage marriage is typically defined as the union of two adolescents joined in marriage from the age range of 14–19 years old. Until the late 20th century, teen marriage was very common and instrumental in securing a family, continuing a blood lineage and producing offspring for labor. Many factors contribute to teen marriage such as teen pregnancy, religion, security, family and peer pressure, arranged marriage, economic and political reasons, social advancement, and cultural reasons. Studies have shown that teenage married couples are often less advantageous, may come from broken homes, may have little education and work low status jobs in comparison to those that marry after adolescence.

                                         During the days of our parents or grandparents, girls (teenagers) aging 14-19 years old are not allowed to have relationship with someone, they must reach the right age to do so. If you're a boy, you cannot win easily the heart of your love, you have to win first the heart of her parents. You have to visit her home,etc. But today, as you can see, it is just ordinary for us to see teenagers as a couple. Teenagers nowadays are very far away from the teenager of the past. We can say that they are rebellious and always curious about something. Rebellious in the way that they do everything that they want with no boundaries and no limitation. Curious in the way that when something new things/ new ideas that comes into their mind that really catch their attention they would actually try it, and curiosity will occur. Without thinking the consequences of their action, bad things might happen.

                                          Some of the news or we can say from the experiences of other people that are being shared to me, the first factor that might led them to early teenage marriage is their curiosity on sex. we can say because of having relationship on early age, many thing could happen. Like having sex,well it's just an ordinary thing on a couple but on a teenager?It might cause to the pregnancy of the girl, and they should married each other because of what happened. Sometimes, tradition might also a big factor. 

                                                           PART II (Of My Answer)

                                          In our world today most especially in the developing country, teenage pregnancy is as a result of traditional roles and early marriage, because teenage pregnancy is seen as a blessing and a proof that the young woman is fertile. In most cases, poverty contributes to this, when one does not have someone to take care of her at her early age.

                                          In the developed world, the causes of teenage pregnancy is different in the sense that it is mostly outside marriage and carries lots of social stigma. Thus, adolescent sexual behaviour is one of the causes of teenage pregnancy. In our world today, having sex before 20yrs is the in thing, it is even the normal all over the world and this brought about high levels of adolescent pregnancy which creates sexual relationship among teenagers without the provision of comprehensive information about sex.

                                          The in-take of drugs, alcohol etc contributes a lot to teenage pregnancy meanwhile as a teenager you may not be ready for sexual intercourse at that moment but being intoxicated with drugs and alcohol makes you to be involved in unintended sexual activity just because sex at that time is less emotionally painful and embarrassing. To avoid this, eradicate anything alcohol or drugs.

                                           Furthermore, sexual abuse is also one of the causes of teenage pregnancy. Rape as a sexual abuse has more effect in the life of our teenage girls causing unwanted sex and teenage pregnancy.

                                           In my opinion, age discrepancies also causes teenage pregnancy in the sense that a teenage girl with a partner much older than herself is more likely to get pregnant more often than a girl that have a partner of a close age, as she prefers having the children than abortion since she is not educated enough to use contraceptives. This is not should be tolerated by their parents this is an action that should be stop as soon as possible!
