Choosing what you really want is what I think is the best for you. It really makes you feel better whether the outcome is good or bad as long as you are comfortable with your decision that you made. But if you didn’t choose what your heart desires because you are forced to choose that thing or you let others decide for you, well I am sure that you will not enjoy the things that you want to do, only because you are told to do so or others decided to choose what is for you. Like for example, when you want take IT courses or anything that is related to computers when you go to college but your parents decided to choose other courses that you don’t even like to take with. It sucks right? You don’t have any choices but to follow that even if you don’t like it. The right thing to do is you need to explain to your parents what you heart desires so that they understand your side.
Same with this situation, I chose model A which is 1 Major Field trip (outside Mindanao) + 1 Minor Field trip (Mindanao) + 1 seminar (national) + 2hrs. Interpersonal skills. Even if my parents especially my mother don’t want to but I understand her because I explained to her a lot of things why I chose model A. choosing model A is a great opportunity for a student like me. Of course, I did have a lot of worries in my mind on how to help my parents to save a large amount of money or where will we be going to have money for the expenses in going to Manila for our Field Trip and Seminars. I understand why my parents strongly disagree on me at first but as what I have written a while ago that I did my best to convince them why I chose model A. At last, I convinced my mother but my brother and sister still don’t agree because they only believe that I chose that model just for fun and not realizing the amount of money to be spent. Sometimes, when I think a lot of things how to help my parents in earning money for our field trip, it’s fun to say that something came out on my mind that make me laugh. What if I’m going to do such bad things such as robbery? And the worst thing if I get caught, the problem will get bigger and the money allotted to my field trip will be spent for me to be out of jail. But I didn’t tolerate that kind of idea no matter what happens, instead I just think of possible ideas to be made. I just now realized wholeheartedly and mentally the importance of money even in the smallest amount like a centavo coin, it will help a lot if you earn them, you just need to be patient.
For me, I chose model A because it will help a lot especially for a student like me who wants to have a big break or who wants to have a great opportunity to find a job over there after I soon successfully graduate at this course, if God wills. But who knows? I might be working there after a couple of years if I want to. Also it will give an amazing and a lot of experience if we stay there for a couple of days. Taking seminars in Manila will help me boost my confidence after I graduate at this course, because I can now write from my application from the companies in Manila that we invited and attended their seminars during our learning and staying in Manila. I am not saying that seminars here in Mindanao is not so good although we can save a lot of money from travelling but I am thinking of much and great opportunity when we can join seminars in Manila.
Choosing this model will expand your limitations not only in learning but also your ability or skills when you already have a work because I heard a lot of good rumours that Manila has an advance level in training people on how to be competitive and productive Filipino citizens. They also say that people there are more competitive than people here in Davao because a lot of pressure were experienced by the people in Manila but that pressure makes them to be a successful worker in their company. With that, I am much excited to go there not only just for fun or to take rides over there or to take pictures elsewhere but to attend seminars and to learn more and also to apply what I have learned from it.
Since our schedule in Manila is fast approaching, I need to prepare myself for what will be the result in choosing model A. I hope that I will not regret of what I decided to choose. I hope that I can learn more or I can achieve my objectives in going there in Manila to attend seminars to support my dreams, my dream to have a good job not only in Manila also in any place or companies where I want to apply a couple of years from now. And I also hope that our hard work will not fall into nothing but into a meaningful and memorable experience because it’s not easy to find a money this time just to spend for our once in a lifetime major field trip and seminars. My parents gave their best just to support my needs and a lot of sacrifices were done also by myself to help my parents I am so lucky that my parents taught me how to earn money since I was a kid. Now, from my little savings from time to time since I was first year college it reached to 5,000 pesos and it will be a great help for my parents so I help them pay the expenses so my mom don’t worry a lot about searching large amount of money. And lastly I chose model A because since it is our major field trip and it is required in our syllabus and we will still spend money, let us grab the chance to enjoy it. Not only here in Mindanao but also on the other side of our country especially in Manila to experience other things and also to learn at the same time because sometimes opportunity knocks at our door once in a lifetime. So let’s enjoy other places here in our country because it’s more fun in the Philippines.
