Last week of December almost everyone is thinking about their new year’s Resolution, some are writing them on a piece of a paper while others are memorizing their own resolution by heart wishing that they would keep their promise as the year goes by.
Well when this topic is chosen by my classmates I was wondering what the heck am I going to write, because I don’t really make it a habit to make my new year’s resolution, but making one isn’t really easy too. But then again I try to write my first ever new year’s resolution (making one is surely a hard task for me)
1. To develop my time management skills, why? Because when you’re a youth leader most of the time you have to be available for your church mates, to check if we’re all doing our assigned task and most of the time you have to go one place to another just to attend the meetings, trainings and seminars to represent your parish, after all these things and meeting, I have no time for my family and friends and I have no time for myself to enjoy other things. This year I must find time to take a day one at a time.
2. To complete the books of Bob Ong, Ricky Lee and Eros Atalia, and to complete the series of Pugad Baboy , maybe because as a student I look up to their writing styles they have good books and excellent writing styles. So far I manage to complete the books of Bob Ong and Ricky Lee, but I have a hard time to find the book of Eros Atalia entitled “Peksman nagsisinungaling ako” (someone stolen the book from me so I have to buy one again) and the comic series of Pol Media (the creator of Pugad baboy) because some of his past comic book are already out of stock (so if you have a copy of Pugad Baboy 2 can I buy it? Haha). And I would also love to have a copy of “Catcher in the Rye”. I am just proud that there are many good writers here in our country.
3. This would sound cheesy but I have to be the good daughter, sister, friend that I can be and a girlfriend (oo may boyfriend ako), maybe after the heart breaking news to my parents that I can’t make it in this March or April graduation, I realize that my mom was excited about it but I failed. (Epic failed?), and as a daughter they always give what I want and my needs. Truly they are awesome, amazing and for me the perfect parents any kid could have. As a sister (biologically or just soul sisters) I would try not to say mean words to them (haha I have loud mouth). As a friend, I try to attend our gatherings (God knows how much I miss my old friends) to catch up with them, how well are they doing these days, and making effort to make them happy or to just to be with them on special days. And lastly as girlfriend because we are both youth leaders in different religion it is really hard for us to see each other because I have to attend meeting and he had to do other stuff too for his co-youth workers, hopefully we would find a special date to celebrate our monthsarries and other cheesy stuff (trivia we don’t really remember what is the exact date when we both agreed that we should be together, hahaha oo alam ko makakalimutin kameng dalawa but it doesn’t matter when we don’t celebrate monthsary, just because we have each other is enough is not about how many months or years you have each other it’s about the hard days or happy days as long as we have each other for a long time it is a miracle for both of us .) (cheesy lines)
4. Maybe I also want to become a grateful person every single day of my life, because every day is a miracle for me, this means even if I always made a mistakes still God wakes me up every single day to remind me that he loves me (I’m sure he loves you too), that no matter what stupid things I do still he love me unconditionally, I am grateful for all the family, friends that I have. I am grateful for every up’s and downs that I face, it makes me the person who am I today.
Making this 4 new year’s resolution took me a long time I really think what should I write, what should I accomplish and to memorize it by heart to breath with the resolutions to be one with me, truly making this list is a hard task.

It’s nice to see that your errors have lessened but there are still a lot of them Always check your spelling, grammar, and also your choice of words. I think despite the article being personal, it lacked the ability to connect with the reader/s whether it’d be in a positive or a negative way. There were times when I would feel attached to article then I would not feel a connection then I will feel attached again. As writers, I think we should find ways in order to insist our readers to keep on reading and focusing on our articles before they move to the next one. I liked how you added bits of humor in your article. However, I wish you could have presented it in a more aesthetic way than just saying it. I wish you could have also added more of that humor in every paragraph. I think the humor would suit your personality of always being so happy.

Uhm, Nash was honest, I agree in what he said. Your article was fun, very personal, I think it talks all about who you are, I found it very human and realistic. I just also that you had put more lines that will connect to your readers, just like the funny lines that you wrote which is asking the reader if he/she has a copy of Pol Medina’s book. I also noticed that your paragraph (number three) was text heavy, I think that it should be cut into half. But I like to say that I love about your being so religous, and I think it will encourage the reader to do the same way. (89)
There is always a good and bad side in doing personal article. The good side is that you have shared something that came from your experience and that people can easily relate to. The other side is that there is a thin line between creative writing and writing in a blog. On the other hand, I feel fresh and light while reading your article. It has humor and organized in a way that it can easily be read.Congrats 🙂

This is a very personal article and I find it very interesting.
you can try to cut your paragraphs most especially your #3 resolution.
you also forgot to italicize the Tagalog words.
there are grammatical errors.
Grade: 89
It’s difficult to read if the sentences don’t have commas and periods. It’s just like I am running on a thread mill the way I read your article. Please observe proper usage of punctuation marks. I know you can still improve. Trust yourself, do better next time!
90!
Seems like some of your punctuation marks are missing. But I get the point of your article. Observe the rule when you use tagalog words. Few grammar lapses.
-90
please italicize your tagalog words. and also check your spellings. especially with names.

Things the article need to improve:
– Appropriate words for solid meaning of each sentences.
-Cut complex sentences into simple ones for brevity purpose.
-Italicize Filipino terms.
-Double check your spelling and sentence structure.
Your grade is 90.
Nice article, however it seems like you were only forced to do your new year’s resolution. work on your sentence construction, observe proper cutting of paragraphs. your patagraphs and photos should be proportion.
your grade is 87.
Though there are errors in spelling and grammar, I like your article. It is because I think that you have shared a part of you where we do not know yet. The flow is okay but just don’t forget to use proper punctuation marks.
Your grade is 88.
You should at least make it 5 resolutions. It seems that you’re not that interested in doing this. tee hee 😛 Also, you could think of a more striking title other than the typical new list for new year. But all in all, you did a great job. Your articles is understandable because it’s very simple, and not that problematic.

why 4 not 3 or 5 hehe. i like your article it is something newand fresh.
