Processing Questions:
Write your answers on a sheet of paper.
1. Did you experience spending more time to make a decision that greatly
affects you or your future just like Anton? Share your experience.
-Yes. It was the time that I was looking for a restaurant to eat because I
was so hungry. I wanted to eat in Jollibee but I also want to eat in Pizza
Factory. I couldn’t decide where to eat. Then I figured I should eat in Jollibee
but they were closing. I went to Pizza Factory and there’s no space anymore.
So I ended up being hungry at lunch.

-Look for another University that fits my standards.
3. What should you do so you won’t face the same problem as that of Anton?
-It’s okay to take time to decide but he should’ve decided earlier before
he graduate.

WHAT I HAVE LEARNED
Go back to the story of Anton in Let’s Try This. If you have the power to
travel back in time and help him out in choosing for the best school and
course to take in college, what advise will you give him? Write your answer in
a letter format on a piece of paper.
Dear Anton,
You should think carefully about what you really want in college
because it is for your future, but you should not take too long because
enrollment will close and you will be bitterly disappointed for the rest of your
life.
Yours truly, Katrina J.
SHARE YOUR THOUGHTS AND FEELINGS
1. On your answer sheet, write your personal experiences depicting right or
wrong decisions you made during this pandemic.
-During the pandemic, I learned to drink alcohol. I thought it doesn’t
have an effect in my body since I cannot really be drunk and the taste of
alcohol is good. That was the wrong decision I’ve ever made because it made
me sick. My UTI (Urinary Track Infection) became worse than I ever imagined.
There’s blood in my urine and worse I cannot walk anymore because of body
pain. That is when I decided to stop drink alcohol, it was the right decision
because right now, I feel healthy again and I learned my lesson.
3. Cite the reasons why you did such acts, and how you resolved the issues.
-The reasons why I did those maybe because I was looking for
something fun during the pandemic. I was looking for something different,
something I wanted to try. Lesson learned, I took care of my body after I
experienced horrific pain.
