First Quarter Reflection 

For the past months of studying MIL its been an astounding experience to know that people need to be literate about today`s media instead of mindlessly using it in a wrong way. There is a lot ways in gathering information properly and that`s what I`ve been taught in MIL especially in getting the right source for a more reliable information. Though, we are commonly aware of it we are being more careful in order to avoid getting caught because there is always a law that people could face doing the wrong thing with information.

Lesson 7:  Legal and Ethical and Societal Issues

❝  sweet little mind ❞

creations of your own

and the rights you hold

may not be sets in stone

are now taken for a piece of gold

such a sweet little mind

for you to say to bend the law

turning to be blind

even though I saw

are you for real?

been caught on hand

and its not fair

couldn`t help to feel ashamed to live in this land

Lesson 6: Media and Information Languages

❝  movies  ❞

It feels like a movie

coming out of life

its too real for me

and in the spotlight

romance can make your heartbeats fast

even though it wont last

thriller can make you tremble 

as you continue to crumble

life is a movie

with every words and emotions

the inside is full of beauty

lying next by the ocean

how enchanting it works?

by the technicalities and symbolic codes 

that brings a sparks

all throughout its road

Lesson 5: media and information sources 

❝  passed by  ❞

little ones being awakened by their natives

eyes wide open for the truth

might seems creative 

and their fiery heart of youth

it is not written 

but its a common knowledge 

that may seems their source of driven

and they acknowledge them

who they are ,is what they are

passed by from every generation

that serves as their foundation

Open your eyes, step in the light

be the voice of inspiration

along the dark and silent night

there`s so much information for this generation

⎯  yourstruly (midnightsoleil)

Information is everywhere but the question is it is reliable?

Lesson 4: Types of Media and Media Convergence  

❝  media ?  ❞

isn`t it fascinating? 

that media evolve so much through time

its rapidly accelerating 

and its like our prime

provide us with different purposes 

when we can easily get

like an actual services

that we usually forget

from traditional to digital

a road where everything`s surreal

used by the individuals 

so surreal but it is truly real 

⎯  yourstruly (midnightsoleil)

Traditional and New media provide us different needs such as media convergence. Where everything are accessible for everyone with just a internet and even mobile devices. From online courses, gaming, shopping and more is already right in front of our eyes. Everything is possible with these media and anytime we can just use it for entertainment or learning experiences. Technology plays a big part on media where our gadgets are mainly use for everything even wearable things.

Slut-shaming is a way of criticizing people, especially women or girls who perceived to violated the expectations about their appearance and behavior relating to sexual issues. Thus, people should understand that women are their own kind of people who live in this cruel world. Who they are, is what they are and that is something that should stuck in people`s mind.

The way they act on how they dress or behave does not define them names that should be called because they are also human who feel emotions and can be sensitive about this kind of matter making them flinch just by hearing or remembering those words. Words can be hurtful most of the time.

Women are not easy and they would not do anything just because people said so. Women are empowered and strong even if words can pin down their heart and mind they are strong enough to keep fighting on. 

In the world of body shaming and slutshaming,

In the nation known for rape and molestation

In the city filled with lusty eyes and hidden fantasies

What`s more challenging to win more as a “ woman “ ?

The suns shine brightly even with the warm breeze she parades the walkway as if she is in a Paris fashion week but she quiver as eyes starting to goggle upon her.

Some may say that she`s a self-centered person, an attention seeker and so much more but do these words is what she really is?. Others may say that she`s bubbly, playful and an optimistic. Though, others can describe us in what they see and know but she is just a typical teenager who simply tried to ignored all of the negative things about her as long as she know who she is in and out. 

She is the type of person who seeks the things that are good and bad and analyzing what to change and how to cope with it. She usually gets motivation and inspiration from the books that is all about self-help such as The Secret, Atomic Habits, Getting things done and more. She always try to see the positive of being a human being that it is natural to always be down and emotional. That`s life but then always try to make the best of it.
