As I grew up, I never thought that life would get tougher and tougher each day. When I was still a child, I can still remember how easy life was because children are supposed to play and enjoy their life as a small kid am I right? I think of this as a fact for playing is the only thing I did because there are still no more than important things to worry about like money except schooling. But studying is not why I came to school every morning I wake up when I'm still a kid because I have no other way of playing with my friends rather than meeting up in school for our places are a bit far to each other. We used to play every Filipino street games as long as we know the rules and how to play them. Some of these games are:
Patintero
the following link is the instructions on how to play the game
Tumbang Preso
My very own favorite
Taguan or hide and seek
In playing these games, age is not an exception.
Being a kid is not bad once in a while, it is just a matter of time. Life is not design to be that way. We also need to struggle for us to pursue and learn. That is what I'm trying to do right now. Nowadays, I've been struggling about so many things. Grades, money, family problems, conflict between friends, and I could also include the weather here in Calgary which is winter. But my grades is my priority right now for I am hoping to graduate from high school in the next coming months. Right now, my grade is sitting so close to equilibrium in my ELA class for English here is quite different from what I experienced in the Philippines. Here in Calgary, this subject focuses more on grammar and reading comprehensions where they are only a small part on which our English subject focuses back in the Philippines. Back there, we study about the different components of the English language,how to figure them out in a statement and how to use them such as nouns, pronouns, verbs, adverbs, conjunctions, prepositions, figures of speech and so on. That is the main difference which gave me struggles to adopt the English language here in Calgary which I will do my very best to win this game.
