Feelings Behind that Smile

     I was wondering before why "Mona Lisa" is very famous. Mona Lisa is an oil painting by Leonardo da Vinci. The painting shows a woman looking out at the viewer with an enigmatic smile. Now, what's with that smile?

     It was said that her smile is 83% happy, 9% disgusted, 6% fearful, 2% angry, less than 1% neutral, and 0% not surprised at all. For me, her smile seems to hide something inside. It's like her smile was fake. She might be really sad but she's just trying to hide the sorrow.

     No matter what we think about her smile, we can't really tell the meaning of her smile. It is difficult to tell the emotions in just one glance. Her smile will still remain as a mystery.

Seven Common Errors Committed by a Student

     A mistake can never be corrected by another mistake. It will just make things more complicated.

1. Cheating- Why do we have to cheat if we could just read and study more? Cheating will never make things good for you. You may have a high score but you will not understand what the topic is all about.

2. Lying- Why do we have to tell lies if we could just say the truth and be true to ourselves? What woukd be the purpose of saying such things if we, ourselves, do not believe on those?

3. Forging- Why do we have to forge the signatures of our parents just to have a valid assignments if we could have it signed by our parents even before we leave our house?

4. Not passing requirements on time- Why would we pass the requirements late if we could pass it on time or earlier than deadline? It's just a matter of learning how to manage time.

5. Not paying attention to the teacher- We have to listen to the teacher for us to be able to  know the lesson.

6. Noisy- There is an alloted time for chatting with our seatmates. We have to focus first on the lesson.

7. Late- If your house is far from school, you should go to school earlier.

     To avoid or lessen those, we should learn how to manage our time, discipline ourselves, be true, and think twice before we do something.

Things To Do

On a sunny Monday morning, I was with my friends. We were talking about the deadlines of our projects and the schedules of the tests.

     "Hey, when are we going to pass our projects in Filipino?" I asked them.

     "Are you talking about the LSB?" asked Micah.

     "Yeah", I replied

     "Next Monday",she said

     We went to the canteen to buy foods.

     "We're gonna have our long test in Advanced Statistics, right?" asked Febbie.

     "Yeah, next Monday also."

     When Febbie said that we are going to have our long test in Advanced Statistics next week, I got confused because we will have a lot of things to do and I don't know which will I do first. I'm afraid I might not finish those all.
