Goals for The New Year

Leave a comment

Happy New Year!

Looking over the past year, I can say that lots of things have been accomplished this year. Even though I haven’t posted much on this site, next year I will try to post more often here.

After saying what I thought of this year I will say a list of things I want to try doing next year 😁

1. “Try Cooking”

Cooking is an interesting thing to try because it takes up a lot of time.
Example: Mastering a single dish or have lots of trial and error making your own dish. In the end cooking is pretty fun.

2. “Use The Drawing Pad I Got This Christmas”

From all the presents I got this Christmas one stood out from the others. That one present was a Drawing Pad. It was dream come true because how I was animating was with a stylus directly on my tablet with on flipaclip. But with the drawing pad and my computer could help me make better animations.

3. “Use 24 Fps”

If you don’t know, Fps is frames per second. I normally animate on 10 to 8 Fps which makes it more choppy. But with 24 Fps and the drawing pad and with time I can make smoother animations

4. “Keep A Journal”

Writing in a journal is good because of many reasons. Listing, writing, cases and “The Casual Nostalgia Trip” yeah. This is one of the simple things. Another thing to do is post more often.

5. “Start A Youtube Channel”

Starting a Youtube Channel needs a lot of planning to do, but I’ve always had the feeling that I wanted to start one. Since I just got a drawing pad I feel like I should make the channel’s content animations and stop motion just like Haminations and Jaiden Animations.

That is basically the top five things from the long list of what I want to do [NOT FROM WORST TO BEST]. Time passes by so fast so you have to cherish each moment. Also HAPPY NEW YEAR!

P. S Jaiden Animations and Haminations don’t do stop motion but nevermind

Hobbies

Learning how to solve a “Rubik’s cube”

1 Comment

The “Rubik’s cube” has been something I have been interested in for a long time. I always thought that I would never be able to do it, because the first few times I tried it was too hard for me.

I didn’t play the Rubik’s for a while, until this year when my Dada started to teach me. He taught me some algorithms. At first, it was pretty tricky. I kept turning the wrong turns and confusing myself by not focusing. But when I kept practicing and persisted I started getting better and better, until I could solve the cube on my own.

Never gonna give you up Never gonna let you down
Never give up trying to solve you.

When I first saw the Rubik’s cube I thought ” Okay this is gonna be quick and easy.” but back then I had no idea that the Rubik’s cube was a lot more complicated than I thought. When I was trying to learn the algorithms I thought that I would never know how to solve the Rubik’s. But I learned to never give up. You always have to know that when you try something new you aren’t the best at it yet — so, just keep trying.

” The Rubik’s is not impossible, just keep practicing”

I love reading because it can expand your view of the world. And see things more creatively.

There are a lot of books that I love. It would be impossible to choose one favorite, because there are so many choices and so many worlds to travel to — I mean that metaphorically.

Here are my top 10 favorite books and collections:

10. Sherlock Holmes: The Sussex Vampire

9. Geronimo Stilton: The Hour Of Magic

8. Geronimo Stilton: The Mysterious Cheese Thief

7. Disaster Diaries: ZOMBIES!

6. Lulu Sinagtala And The City Of Noble Warriors

5. Horrible Histories and Science

4. The Boy Who Made Everyone Laugh

3. REVENGE OF THE STAR SURVIVORS

2. Roald Dahl: Collection

  1. “How To Train Your Dragon” Book Series

I like fantasy, mystery, sci-fi and some non-fiction written creatively.

“READING is your IMAGINATION’s friend”.

I joined the “Page Turners Club” in my homeschool (Victorious Homeschool) because of my love of reading. I hope you can check out some of the books I featured in this post.

The Bulul

Leave a comment

The Bulul, is a Filipino artifact that was used by the farmers of the village. Historic documents say that the Bulul was a Filipino rice god and if the farmers did certain chants and rituals the Bulul would give a great harvest. Some Bulul were put in museums and some became souvenirs for tourists. I learned about the Bulul in the book, “A Lolong Time Ago” by “Halo-Halo Histories”, it is a great book I recommend it.

“I made a Bulul myself out of clay and I realized, I forgot to give him ears, oh well”

This is my Bulul made out of clay, yes I did not make ears for him. It was very fun making him. My Bulul was made for the art subject. I used air-dry clay, a plastic bottle for structure and a plastic container for the bowl. The reason I made this guy was for a late Buwan Ng Wika project and for fun and art.

This is a fun project that you can try yourself. I recycled stuff made out of plastic for the Bulul to have structure. The Bululs I saw on the internet had their eyes in a squinting way most of the time. So I recreated that with diagonal line eyes, the nose gave me some problems but then I had the idea of sculpting the nose from the face. I made the Bulul smooth by rubbing the sides with a wet pencil. Don’t forget to have a place mat so the clay won’t touch the the table.

Mga Salawikain

Leave a comment

Para sa Buwan ng Wika ay pinili naming talakayin ang mga Salawikaing Pilipino.

Pagkatapos namin pag-usapan ang limang salawikain na pinili ko para kay Kuya ay tinanong ko sya kung ano ang pinaka nagustuhan niya.

“Kung ano ang itinanim,
iyon din ang aanihin”

Tinanong ko siya kung bakit. Bagama’t Ingles ang kanyang paliwanag, ay natuwa ako dahil alam kong naintindihan nya nang tama ang Pilipinong kasabihan.

“I like it because it teaches me to always make the right choice.”

Pinagawan ko si Mikku ng disenyong postcard sa Canva gamit ang napili niyang kasabihan.

Nawa’y magsilbi ito sa kanya bilang paalala na dapat niyang piliin – – hindi lamang ang mga nais niya – – kun’di ang mga nararapat at tama, na itanim sa buhay at puso niya. Dasal ko na balang araw ay anihin ni #elijahmikku ang mga bunga na mabuti at maganda galing sa puso niya.
