NAT EXAM.
Room # 10 enables the examinees to answer conveniently. Because it is well-lit and well-ventilated! (Power! what a yummy work of parallelism!...ooops, teaching lapse again! not part of the report!)

countdown: 2nd day for my wish
Dear God,
I've just waken up early for some seminar-workshop. I am hearing some early morning voices that certainly coming from the seawall. This is my 2nd time to open up my wish. Please grant this wish. Hear me despite this laptop's precarious screen time lapses. This particular wish has been with my aunts and uncles' hearts too! My mom's. Perhaps, even the skies that has seen the progression of dirt! I haven't gotten any musical score or theme song for this wish. Hope from Alanis' latest album or James Morrison's. Mangoes, grass, fences and other ancient sensory images that stilted my soul. May this be a key to make this wish perennial.
listen to me: the diagnosis is Gastritis
I am lucky that I have question-loaded doctor. Grateful to my subconscious and to the conniving forces elsewhere!
He broke the news that I have gastritis! The difference between THAT and ulcer is gastritis--the stomach is just barked off while in ulcer, our tummy has open sore or wound!
Gastritis is an inflammation of the stomach lining. There are many causes, among which is alcohol.
My oral reaction during the reading of allowed foods as diet: Oh gosh, no corned beef! (This is under tough or stringy meats) Whoa, no coffee, either! Sheeeeks! no tomatoes!

Tangled from Disney's
Order of Rapunzel to the palace horse: "DROP THE BOOT!" (Because Max, the horse, and our leading lady are tugging Eugene to opposite directions. Max gets the footwear while Raps gets the cuticle! Just pulling your leg there!)

countdown: 1st day for my wish
Dear God,
This is the first day of my prayer about this wish. I hope it will come true. A childhood delight with my grandmother and I haven't thought that THAT DELIGHT would prop up some impact for my futurity, my sense of security, and my personality as well. I consider the souls and the past. A wish that is big, bigger than trees. Lord, grant me...
when philhealth is wealth (essay on post-hospital)
Honestly, I wanted to paraphrase Philhealth's vision (I've discussed on paraphrasing for my classes, as in "paraphrase this stanza/that paragraph/these lines/the motto...") but I spoke out on easy on myself because I was fresh from the hospital's 7th floor!
I don't want to experience that gruesome pain on Friday night again. So I want some means to rehabilitate my stomach. I want it to be filled with healthy bits and particles! I want a healthy tummy because if alcoholic beverage, "skipping meals" ( How dare you to disobey the simple request of Father Time to eat ON TIME!), and fatty foods persist, you'd end up having a searing, tearing, ulcerated walls! Disgusting sight.
Soup, soup, soup!
Steamed, steamed, steamed!
Then, water.
How about softdrinks? Picture out wounds inside your tummy called peptic ulcer!
OK, water.
End of Guilt.

best actress!
Natalie bagged the Oscar's top awards for a leading role this year. Portman, her last name, was "portly" during the night because there's a "man" in her womb! She is pregnant.
I am happy that she is now considered a certified actress; in the company, without doubt, of Meryl Streep, Sandra Bullock, Hilary Swank, and Jodi Foster!
Her acceptance speech was not that remarkable, full of names and first names yet this implies how grateful she was; how she valued people's dedication and efforts!
Mentioning twenty names is total talent! Kudos for that, Nat! This proves that Natalie's memory is sharp!
best answer!
I ask students this question: (names, not mentioned; they are armed with mayonnaise bottles as terrariums!)
What is the importance of paraphrasing?
The best answer: IF YOU don't want a case (for Plagiarism), then make your own paragraph!
Wow!

lesson now is oxymoron (not an ox, not a moron either! so you'd better listen, Ping!)
I wrote each letter on the board with an individual eye-catching font: Big O, elegant X, slim Y...ask my students.
Oxymoron is a rhetorical figure of speech in which contradictory terms are paired. Just imagine, you are in the kitchen, and clumsily mixing olive oil to tap water! Or, you yourself are inside the same kitchen and you are taking a bath right there, instead THERE (!) at the perfumed bathroom! It is like a girl named Apple but, by golly wow, she wolfs down 400 kilos of grapes in one hour! Well, that is life and enough of those awed reactions because that is the key character here on earth--conflicting pairs!
Examples
"dry lake" -- How can it be dry when it is a LAKE?
"alone in the crowd" --crowd, many people, right? But it seems, one loves solitude!
"jumbo shrimp"
The examples above are "awful good" (ooops, an oxymoron there!). And if you have already interested to anything oxy and anything moronic, check oxymoronlist.com and let the contradiction of ideas paired and teamed whet your appetite!
Clean the board and pick up pieces of paper. Ciao!
