Growing Families #ASIANISTASCONNECTEDBYHEART

 #ASIANISTASCONNECTEDBYHEART

        Family is what brings us all together and keeps on growing as the years go by. We stick together and always together, forever and ever, until the day we reach the skies of heaven. Of course, This is what I really feel about this picture, especially the part of where my family is growing and becoming a part in our lives to have. This was a family portrait of my 2nd older sister's wedding with her husband, also known as my brother-in-law.

        The reason why I have this picture is because it means a lot to me and my sister to have a family of her own, along with my niece. This means that part of my family is growing and starting new lives with the ones that they love. Now, my sister is now living in Sweden with my brother-in-law and niece, and I am missing her, but she wouldn't leave our side because she is always there for us, even if she is not physically with us.

Fashion Is Art!

        Fashion is very popular, around the world. They can be worn with different clothing and different styles. It is an aesthetic to many people, shows an expression of self-confidence to the people who are wearing them, and it also shows a beauty of art. However, when it comes to fashion, we can't forget about the fashion designing.

        Fashion designing is an aesthetic, design, and form of a piece of clothing. It is what gives fashion a a sense of beauty and people will enjoy wearing them. People who do fashion designing need inspiration to make their designs come to life and goes well with certain aesthetics that pleases the designer and maker of the outfit.

        My design is rather simple yet aesthetically-pleasing that meets the eye. I enjoy the looks of galaxy and starry night aesthetics. When I look at them, they always form beautiful color shades of blue and purple, they can be seen within painting and other forms of medium, from what I have been seeing a lot. That is the kind of aesthetic I have went with for my design. A lot of inspiration of different galaxy-themed clothing and artworks has come to mind when coming up with this kind of design.

        Why did I choose a galaxy aesthetic? Because the galaxy is a big, empty space that has yet to been by many. They provide a sense of mystery and learning to be done. And when there is a big, empty space, it creates a big canvas for designers and artists alike.

Ang Kamalayan ng Diskriminasyon

Angel Down by Lady Gaga

I confess I am lost

In the age of the social

On our knees, take a test

To be lovin' and grateful

Shots were fired on the street

By the church where we used to meet

Angel down, angel down

But the people just stood around

I'm a believer, it's a trial

Foolish and weaker, oh, oh, oh

I'd rather save an angel down

I'm a believer, it's chaos

Where are our leaders? Oh, oh, oh

I'd rather save an angel down

Doesn't everyone belong

In the arms of the sacred?

Why do we pretend we're wrong?

Has our young courage faded?

Shots were fired on the street

By the church where we used to meet

Angel down, angel down

Why do people just stand around?

I'm a believer, it's a trial

Foolish and weaker, oh, oh, oh

I'd rather save an angel down

I'm a believer, it's chaos

Where are our leaders? Oh, oh, oh

I'd rather save an angel down

Hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo, hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo

Hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo, hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo

Hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo, hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo

Hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo, hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo

I'm a believer, it's a trial

Foolish and weaker, oh, oh, oh

I'd rather save an angel down

I'm a believer, it's chaos

Where are our leaders? Oh, oh, oh

I'd rather save an angel down

Save that angel

Catch that angel

Save that angel

Catch that angel

Save that angel

Catch that angel

Save that angel

Catch that angel

Catch that angel

P.S. "Doesn't everyone belong In the arms of the sacred?

Sa lipunan ngayon, ang mga tao ay kilala sa diskriminasyon sa ibang mga tao sa pagiging kaiba sa kanilang sarili. Ngunit nang pakinggan ko ang kantang iyon at napagtanto na nilikha tayo ng Diyos upang maipanganak sa mundong ito, mayroon man tayong mga kapintasan o wala. Ang dahilan kung bakit pinili ko ang linyang iyon sa kanta ay dahil bakit dinidiskrimina ng mga tao ang ibang tao dahil lamang sa pagiging iba? Hindi ba tayo pareho lang at walang perpekto? Bakit ang mga tao ay nakikilala pa rin ang iba kung pareho sila? Naniniwala ako na lahat tayo ay pareho at magkakasama tayo sa Diyos mula noong binigyan niya tayo ng buhay sa mundong ito, mayroon man tayong mga kapintasan o wala.

    Music is for everyone and listened to by many. We listen to music for many reasons, but the most common reasons are trying to get away from negative problems that are happening in negative parts of the world, controlling our own moods and emotions, relieving the stress that we feel from doing something for such a long time, and many more. However, there are different groups with their own preference of music that they want to listen to because there are different types of music. Which is why, there are different composers that play different kinds of music.

    A composer is someone who creates music with the use of any instrument to their liking, hoping to create a melody and a good rhythm that they can make a tune out of and be heard by many. Basically, they are known as the authors of music, in those terms. Now, there are many different composers, but I have chosen one Filipino Contemporary Composer. They are known for the musical style of symphonic music, band, vocal, choral, music-theater, chamber, and movie music. He goes by the name Lucio San Pedro.

    Lucio San Pedro is not only a Filipino Composer, but he is also a teacher. He came from a family where the family line are known for their musical roots and San Pedro began his time with music at an early age.

    Shown below is a presentation of Lucio San Pedro, of what his life was in a nutshell, through this graphic organizer:

    With someone like Lucio San Pedro, there are those who are aspiring to become composers themselves and make their own music that would make everyone feel in peace and relieved, even if they are in a good or a bad mood. With their own kind of music, the listeners would be able to enjoy it for entertainment and relief, just like what Lucio San Pedro did with his compositions that would touch the hearts and souls of Filipinos that listen to his music.

Ang Passion at Kahulugan ng Buhay

 

Source: by Me (Hanna Joan)

        Ang bawat isa ay nabigyan ng buhay sa mundong ito. Ngunit may isang katanungan na maiisip sa kanilang isip: Bakit sila ipinanganak sa mundong ito? Ano ang mga layunin na ibinigay sa atin? Bakit tayo umiiral? Kaya, ang karaniwang kasagutan ay napili tayo. Napili tayong mabuhay sa mundong ito sapagkat ang layunin ng isang tao ay alamin at maunawaan ang daang dinadanas nila. Kahit na tayo ang pinili na isilang sa mundong ito, iisa lamang ang buhay natin na dapat pangalagaan at maunawaan. At ang isang buhay ay nangangahulugang mayroon lamang tayo isang limitadong dami ng oras sa mundong ito.

        Para sa akin, iniisip ko kung ano talaga ang halaga ng buhay. Ngunit isang sagot, sa partikular, na naisip ko sa tuktok ng aking ulo ay ang halaga ng buhay ay isang mahalagang bahagi sa loob ng bawat isa sa atin. Sapagkat, tulad ng sinabi ko sa simula, napili tayo sa mundong ito na may isang buhay. Ngunit ang aming buhay ay makakakuha ng mas mahusay sa amin sa kahalagahan ng pakiramdam ng iba't ibang damdamin, naisip na nais naming makamit sa mundong ito, at pinaka-mahalaga, ipinapakita ang totoong kahulugan ng tagumpay. Sa pamamagitan nito, ang karanasan na mayroon tayo sa loob ng halaga ng buhay ay nangangahulugang pagbabahagi ng mga ito sa iba. Nalaman natin, naiintindihan, at ibinabahagi namin ang karanasan.

        Maraming mga layunin ang ibinibigay sa akin at naisip ko, sa tuktok ng aking ulo. Gayunpaman, kung kailangan kong pumili ng isa o higit pa, kung gayon ang aking hangarin sa mundong ito ay upang malaman at ibahagi ang karanasan kung paano ang aking buhay ay naging sa pamamagitan ng paggamit ng mga kwentong may mahahalagang kahulugan na konektado sa aking sariling kahulugan ng buhay. Bagay sa akin ito sapagkat nasisiyahan ako sa pagpapahayag ng aking mga ideya sa pamamagitan ng pagsulat ng kuwento o maging sa pagguhit. Kapag may mga buhay na buhay na kulay, madalas silang positibong kinalabasan mula sa aking isipan at pareho din sa pagsulat ng isang kwento na naglalaman ng magandang simula sa kwento. Ngunit magkakaroon ng mga pagkakamali sa buhay, na magpapalipat-lipat ng mga kulay ng pagguhit o pagliko sa loob ng kuwento. Iyon ang dahilan kung bakit ang aking hangarin sa mundong ito ay alamin at ibahagi ang karanasang iyon sa paggamit ng panitikan at ang anyo ng sining.

    Pagdating sa akin para sa kung kanino ako nabubuhay. Palagi kong iniisip na palagi akong nabubuhay para sa aking sarili. Bakit ko nais mabuhay para sa aking sarili? Ito ay dahil mapipigilan ko kung ano ang gusto ng aking buhay sa malapit na hinaharap at alam kong makakakuha ako ng anumang landas ng nais kong gawin at kung ano ang gusto kong maging. Ako ay aking sariling tao. Gayunpaman, mabubuhay ako para sa pagtulong sa aking pamilya at mga kaibigan, dahil palagi silang nandiyan para sa akin at sinusuportahan ako para sa nais kong gawin sa malapit na hinaharap. Ang pag-alam ng aking sariling talento at pag-aaral na magtrabaho dito ay nangangahulugang maaari akong gumawa ng isang bagay sa talento na iyon, upang mabuhay ako para sa aking sariling buhay at ibahagi ito sa aking pamilya at mga kaibigan.

        Lahat ng ginagawa natin sa buhay ay laging may kanya-kanyang karanasan. Para sa marami, maaalala nila ang mga bagay na nagawa nila at maibahagi ito sa marami. Sa pagbabahagi ng mga uri ng mga karanasan, pagkatapos ang iba pang mga tao ay magiging inspirasyon at maunawaan na ang kanilang buhay ay may halaga, at kailangang alalahanin ito. Sa huli, mahahanap namin ang aming kahulugan ng tagumpay sa buhay sa kung ano ang gusto mo at kung ano ang iyong ginagawa.
