From Project to Adventure: Filming, Exploring Nature, and Enjoying Mango Picking with Friends

Hello, fellow Hivers! I am @miss-shen back again with another blog and If you have nothing to do or are bored, feel free to read my blog. But before that, I would like to thank you for welcoming me and supporting me on my last blog, which was a self-introduction. Now I am back with my new blog, and I hope you also support me on this and enjoy reading it.

It was about last week when we didn’t have any classes, so our teacher gave us an activity to do, which was making a video, but it was about assembling and disassembling every part of the CPU, so my group mates and I didn't know where to find the CPU. We tried to ask someone we knew if they had one, even if it was not working. Eventually, we didn't see or didn't know where to just borrow a CPU; it's so hard to find, but we have to try to find it because it is part of our course to know how to do the assembling and disassembling. Thankfully, another group mate had done their video, so we asked if we could borrow it for our video.

Fast forward to Monday morning, and we decided to take videos because tomorrow is the deadline. So we planned to see each other at 8:00 am, but it's just a plan because, you know, Filipino time, and almost everyone got there at 9:00 am, including me. Hahaha, I am the only one they were waiting for. But I had a reason for being late. After that, we rode in a Jeep (a Filipino vehicle). It was funny because the Jeep was almost occupied by us, and we were so loud there. When we got there, they said that we had to ride a motorcycle just to get to our final destination, which was the house of our classmate. And I did not expect that their house was so far away, but to go there is worth it.

Since there were so many of us who could not fit in just one motorcycle, we decided to have five motorcycles, and there were two who were going to ride each one of the motors. My friend and I laughed, thinking we were headed to a fiesta, but in actuality, we were there for our project. But while we enjoyed the ride, I was astounded by what I saw because it brought back memories of provincial life; the wind felt so cool, the scenery captivated me, and I could see the ocean. As we enjoyed the ride, we were close to passing the house of my classmate, but good thing we saw her waving at us.

A Green Mango

When we got to my classmate's house, my group mates saw a mango, and they said that they had been wanting to eat one. We decided to get those once we were done taking our videos. After that, we did not rest so that we could go home early because the sun was too hot and most of us did not have umbrellas. As you can see in the picture, the CPU is no longer working because it is old. But we give it a shot just to have a video to pass on to our teacher. We did the assembling and disassembling of what was just on the CPU that we were using. Each one of us helps with this just to get it done because they badly want to get some mango. Hahaha, they said that it is also one of the reasons why they love to go there.

Yey! Finally, we are done with our activity. My classmates were rushing into the mango tree; it was finally time to get the mango. We were so happy that time; it was like we were brought back to our high school days. We wish that we could go back, but we cannot. Moving on, I am really happy because we were like kids, climbing on a tree and then just picking up whatever we saw, including the small one. Once we are done picking some mango, we head home and take a ride on the motorcycle again, but this time the wind is so strong because it is downhill and that nature never stops to amaze us with its beauty. Then, after that long drive, we road again, a Jeep, and then, lastly, a motorcycle to get to my house.

Upon arriving home, I simply rested for a little bit. After that, it was time to create our report's PowerPoint. I just want to share with you that creating a PowerPoint presentation is simple if you know what to include, but you must ensure that it is on the subject your teacher assigned. also, I want to share with you how hard to be a student, especially in college. We all know that it's difficult to be a college student, isn't it? You must effectively manage your time and possess the fortitude to face any challenges that may arise. I just want all of you to know that all your hardships will pay off someday when you have aspirations of graduating or succeeding in life. You will fulfill them in God's will through the inspiration and encouragement of your family, and friends, and you should have faith in God.

What a tired day, so I decided to go out and get some fresh air. When I was outside, I saw the children of our neighbor sweeping, and I was so happy because, as far as I could see, this generation is different; some children would not do chores; instead, they used their gadgets and cell phones, which is not good for them. and I am glad that there are some children doing a chores.

Finally, this is the beautiful landscape photo I took. I enjoy capturing the spirit of nature because it fascinates me and makes me feel better, especially after a long day. Nature has a therapeutic effect on our emotions because it calms the mind and reduces stress. We experience a sense of being a part of, being complete, and being happy with life when we are in nature, feeling a part of something bigger than ourselves. The natural world has beauty and majesty that we know we can benefit from, such as the ocean, trees, animals, and fruits, so we must cherish and preserve it.

You have finished reading my blog. I hope you have enjoyed it and, also I hope we continue to support each other. Thank you so much.
