My First Paradise

               

         Paradise is a place in which existence is positive, harmonious and timeless. It is conceptually a counter-image of the miseries of human civilization, and in paradise there is only peace, prosperity, and happiness. Paradise is a lovely, peaceful, and place wherein we can relax. You can see a lot of different creatures. You can swim in the clear water of the sea, and smell the freshness of the air. Paradise is created by God, and I was so amazed for His greatness. One of the paradise that He created was the Puerto Galera. One of the extraordinary island in the Philippines. Because, it has the island within the island. And you can say that it is extraordinary  because of its beautiful sea creatures and amazing trees.

                  

                            My first paradise was the Puerto Galera. And I was really shocked when I saw the beauty of Puerto galera. That was my first time to go there. And also, it was my unforgettable vacation, because I’m with my classmates. There was an event there, called “Bikini open”. Fortunately, they chose me to represent our section. I didn’t win the pageant, but I’m happy because I had an experience that some people can’t have. And also their delicacies was so delicious, especially the kakanin called “cassava cake”. And the food  that we ate there, was so memorable because of its savory taste. One of the events that I couldn’t forget also, is the Amazing race. It was an extreme game but still we have fun. And we went to explore the underwater world by snorkeling. Excitement and fun when we ride banana boat. For short, it was so enjoyable and unforgettable vacation in the paradise of Puerto galera.

                  

                            For me, each paradise that I go is the treasured that I’ll keep. Because of that place, I experience a lot of first. And it makes me peaceful and relaxing. So that as a good tourism student, I will care and treasure the paradise we have here in the Philippines, because I believe that this paradise can make us wealthy. Even though our paradise is destroyed by the bad peoples for them to rich, we should be a responsible citizens in our own country, because it is for our own good. We should take care the natural resources that God gave us. STOP DESTROYING, START CONSERVING. That’s paradise.

Me,Myself and I

        My name is Genevied Zulueta Bag-ao, 16 years of age and i live in Caloocan city. I was born on June 16,1994 and I'm the middle child in our family. If you don't mind, they know me as "jhai" and that's my nickname. The name "jhai" came from my auntie in Japan because she wants the name "jhai" as my nickname. And also my professor in 1st semester told me that the meaning of "jhai" is "destiny", so when i heard that, i think that my destiny is so lucky, and I'm proud of that. I'm jolly,nice and friendly person. I'm jolly because I always want to smile, to laugh, and other says that "laughter is the best medicine". And I'm also nice, because my friends told me that I'm a nice person, and last is I'm friendly because I have many friends.

         And by the way, i really love to dance, like modern dance, hip-hop dance, tambourine dance, interpretative dance and so on. And I am  also a flag bearer in our drum and lyre team when I was in 4th year high school and also one of the officer in our Citizenship Advancement Training(CAT). I like designing my room, my things, etc. Eating is also my hobby, i like to explore new foods, exotic foods because I think they are all delicious.

        Tourism course is not my 1st choice, actually my 1st choice is computer engineering but suddenly there is no course of engineering in the University of Caloocan City. And then i have no choice, i took up the bachelor of tourism and that's my 2nd choice. At first i had a doubt for choosing it, but when the day passed by, i realize that I'm happy and no regrets for choosing the tourism course. And now, I'm striving and pursuing to become a good tourism student at University of Caloocan City. That's all about me.
