Simple Gift

Gift comes in various forms. May it be small or big, soft or hard, long or wide, expensive or cheap, what matters most is the value we put into and our noble intention to let the receiver of the gift be happy.

In the celebration of my mother’s Thanksgiving Party, I together with my siblings decided to gave my mother a simple gift. I come up with an idea to give her a charcoal painting of herself as a remembrance from us. Together with the painting is a thank you card with our personal messages. When I gave it to her, she first read the thank you card. She gave time to read all our personal messages written in the card. Then she carefully unwrapped our present. She smiled. I was so delighted seeing her smile. She even showed the painting to my auntie. That confirms that she liked it. It maybe a simple gift but I know somehow that it touch my mother’s heart.

Free Saturdays

     I am officially not enrolled for the second semester in my MBA class. Our request to open first semester subjects was not granted by the registrar. This means that I have a lot of free Saturdays wherein I could leisurely stroll wherever I wanted to go. I would still have to follow up my grades in my academic writing subject where writing research papers had been the final output. I am anxiously waiting for the result of it because I am not confident with the output I submitted.      Since I have no class every Saturday, I do not have to worry any academic reports, assignments and other requirements. My Saturday schedule is very much available for any trips or outings with friends and family. There had been a lot of rejection of invites before because of the conflict of schedule with my MBA class.        Now that I am free from academic activities, this Saturday’s planned schedule to have a road trip to the southern part of the Philippines. I was never been there before and

Research Paper

Thesis writing is now unstoppable. I am now enrolled in in my Special Problem subject and it would the last phase I needed to complete before I could graduate with my MBA degree. When I started out studying again to attain a MBA degree, I was informed that a special problem, maybe it be thesis, feasibility or case study, is needed to be submitted and get the approval of a panel in a defense inorder for the MBA degree to be given. My initial plan is to conduct a feasibility study on any income generating venture and that is it. Since I stopped and was not enrolled for a year, a new curriculum was implemented and thesis was required for submission before I could graduate. Moreover, if two-three students per special problem output is allowed before, today it is by individual wherein one student, one output. It only means I have to do my thesis on my own. I never tried doing a thesis before and my personal perception to it is that it is very difficult. I have tried doing feasibility stud
