My Sport

@ Badminton @

Badminton is a game similar to tennis, using rackets to strike a shuttlecock back and forth across a high net. This game means a lot to me. It becomes an immense part of me. This game is my preferred sport. That is not all. In this entry, you can read how the badminton became an element of me.
At first, this game is “just” a game for me. It all happened when my brother started to attend trainings for badminton. He was also a badminton player and a competitor in his former school. In his trainings and practices, I am always nearby. I always watch him and scrutinize how the game was played. Time pass by, I started to be in the vein of the sport. The very first time I held a badminton racket, I still do not have knowledge how to use it. I just wave it in dissimilar directions. Then I became fascinated about it. I constantly asked my kuya to instruct me how but he was always busy preparing and practicing for the tournaments, he will take part. I learned it myself because I know how to observe. I was still five or six years old at that point in time. I asked my parents to obtain me my own racket. After those events, I started playing badminton.
That is not all. It really distorted my entire life. Back when I am still in grade four, I was a fat girl or should I say “chubby”. Many of my cousins and classmates tease me and made fun of me. That is the main motive why I am always involved in many arguments and conflicts. I am always upset at that time. I thought of many ways to reduce my heaviness until I remembered my most wanted sport. At that time, I am planning to join the badminton players and become skilled more about my favorite sport. Therefore, I did join. Join the trainings every afternoon. The good thing is the coach in our school is the same as my kuya’s trainer. Hence, it is not hard on my side because I previously know the trainer. Back to the topic, those training contain different activities like jogging, stretching, footwork and more. Because of the trainings every afternoon, my weight reduced. I realized that this is the excellent way. I continue those practices. That is the main reason why I achieve my current size. I am no longer fat nor chubby at this time.
Many people who knew my former size will be bewildered and ask me if how I achieved my size in a very short time. Some will say if I had my diet or whatever things they can think of.
Until now, I am still playing badminton. In fact, I just participated in our Intramurals in the University of the Philippines in Cebu last November 2006. Nevertheless, unfortunately, our team got only the third place. Well, its just a game and there is no reason to be disappointed very deeply.
Thanks for the badminton. Badminton will remain the “best sport” ever for me. Badminton is the only game, which my kuya and me play mutually.
That is all for now. Thanks for reading my entry. Have a nice day!

Friends of Mine

@Friendship@

Friendship is the relationship sandwiched between two or more friends. Friend is a significant person who trusts and is fond of another. If you will inquire me if I do have friends, of course, I do have. Many associates can make you “well to do”. Not in terms of cash but in terms of companionship. They serve as your wealth. Wealth that no one can ever filch. In my own experiences, friends help me a lot. In this entry, I will share to you regarding friendship.
On my own, I have many friends. Finding new friends is amusing. There are numerous ways in looking for friends. You find friends in your neighborhood. You can also find when there are social meetings and gatherings. Nevertheless, most of all you can come across friends in school. Just like me, most of my friends are from the campus. Not just my classmates but also other people all over the university ground especially those of the same year level, even the teachers and mentors surrounding you. Making friends make you feel better because they sometimes serve as your so-called “chamber of secrets”. You can rely on them. In return, let them rely on you. You can have “out of the ordinary friends” or best friends, but no matter what you call to them, they are constantly right there beside you. Even if you have conflicts to each other, they will still help whatever your problems are. How tough or complicated to solve that problem is, their eager to lend a hand and help you immediately. In my experience, I have many friends to rely on. They make me more cheerful. They tell me inspirational words that help me a lot. Even though how down in the dumps I am, they can make me smile. It seems that they are the remedy in those tribulations around me. In addition, if you need a shoulder to cry on, they are just around you.
In the other hand, it is very arduous when you are at each other's throats with your closest friend. You must swallow your pride and approach that certain person to apologize if you have sinned. However, if you are not the delinquent, do not wait for the time that the offender will come within reach of to you. You must retrieve your friendship and forget what the past was. You must not take some time to make that conflict be settled.
When you are still a kid, you meet simple problems but just the same, friends are there. How much more when you are a teenager already. You already have experiences that you can share. Share so they can relate their own situation and learn how to solve it their own.
Most problems are all about love. Then your friends are wholehearted to assist you in your decisions. However, you must decide on your own when talking about that. Learn also to accept the opinions of your friends because sometimes they know what is best for you. You must also listen to them.
Just like me, let your friends feel that you are easy to approach and can be a facilitator that is very willing to lend a hand on you.
That’s all for now. Hope you can find more friends but fewer enemies. Thanks for reading my entry. Have a nice day!

Know the Real Me

@Be Acquainted With Me@

Ciao to all. I am Rea Jeanica S. Sabijon. I am 13 years of age. Our very own house is situated in Villa Leyson, Bacayan, Cebu City. I was born on August 16, 1993 in Perpetual Succor Hospital. I am the second angel of Dioscoro P. Sabijon and Ida S. Sabijon. By the way, I have a brother named Niño Rico S. Sabijon. He is currently studying in the University of Cebu. He is now on his second year in college taking up Civil Engineering just like my father. Speaking of father, my father is Dioscoro P. Sabijon. He is a Project Manager of Pacific Land Venture. He graduated as a Civil Engineer in the University of San Jose Recoletos. In the other hand, my mother is Ida S. Sabijon, a plain housewife. She also graduated in San Jose Recoletos just like my father but not as a Civil Engineer but as a Chemical Engineer. Amazing, isn’t it? They are all engineers.
Now, let us talk about me. I am now a first year high school student in the University of the Philippines in Cebu. Before I tell you more about me, I will tell you right away that I am somewhat “weird”. So don’t be mystified if why I am like this.
Many of my classmates now, say that I am very childish. They often question me about that. However, I will just disregard them. I won’t even have any violent reactions because it is definitely true. That is my natural mind-set. I use to be like that since I am the youngest and they treat me as a baby in our domicile. That is the reason why some people deceive me. They just minimally thought, “That girl is just a kid, we can fool that anytime”. In their naked eye, they can portray me like that but they still don’t know the “real” me. Well, they can do that, but they don’t know that I also know how to deal with them. If they can fool me, why can’t I? I also know how to fight back and defend myself. This so-called “childish” also have her heart and mind. Has heart that gets hurt and mind that can meditate decisions on her. So, don’t judge a book by its cover.
Enough on that, change topic please. Let us talk about academics. In school, my favorite subject is Science. I like this subject because it is very interesting. I still like it in spite of all the words to be memorized. In the other hand, the subject that I like least is Math. I didn’t inherit my parents’ capacity in that subject. That is why I have no plan to take up an Engineering Course. More things to know about me are my hobbies. First, I am fun of playing badminton. Nevertheless, I will not talk more about it. You can read more about badminton in my life in my next entry. Another thing that I like most is collecting CDs of Scooby Doo and the Mystery Inc. That is favorite cartoon character. I also like HSM or High School Musical. In the other hand, I am also a music-lover. I can also sing a little bit. My voice is only for our comfort room and not for public places. I am sometimes shy. Another topic to go. I am friendly. If truth were told, back in my elementary years, I have many associates in the other sections. I intermingle with them than my own classmates. That is the basis why my classmates will become annoyed on me. However, I just ignore them and carry on interacting with those people outside our classroom. I also somewhat understand. Understand people around me. Sometimes, some of my friends rely on me and in return, I rely on them. Well, that’s I!
I think those information above is enough to know me better. That’s all for now. Thanks for reading my entry. Have a nice day!
