The Subjective world.

When engaging in conversations with other individuals, people always tend to throw out their own claims. I may agree or disagree with their claims on certain ideas, but as I thoroughly the investigated the differences between subjective and objective claims, I tend to realize how much subjective claims are thrown into world coming out of almost every human mouth. Subjective claims are claims that one may tend to make either true or false, but has their own personal standards or personal opinions put in to it. For example, a lot of my friends and myself are huge Manny Pacquiao fans and we all claim that he is the best boxing fighter in the world. Stating that Manny Pacquiao is the best boxing fighter in the world is a subjective claim because we set the claim like it's our own personal opinion. We may back up our personal opinion with evidence to make others agree with us as well, but the claim is still subjective. An objective claim that we can state about Manny Pacquiao is that he is ranked as the number one pound for pound boxer. This is an example of an objective claim, whether it's true or false, because the statement doesn't depend on what other people may think. If one says that Floyd Mayweather should be ranked as the number one pound for pound fighter, then that is a subjective claim. But this can be turned to an objective claim when one says that Floyd Mayweather is ranked as the number one pound for pound fighter. So if one makes claim with their own personal opinion than their claim would be subjective as it is personal.

CLEAN! (Semester in Review)

UNTIL NEXT TIME!

Last Day of Muse CLASS

As our last day of Muse Class come to the end, it kinda trips me out because of how much more I wanna learn about becoming Internet Famous. It feels like i've just learned the basics and have knowledge of most of the lessons we covered during this semester. This scholarly paper has worked me up a bit as I just started on it about a week ago because of the insufficient information I was given. This class was great while it lasted, especially making the youtube video. I hope to use what I learned from this class in the future as I try to make myself

Internet Famous

Two Fall Campus Events

During my fall semester as a first year in San Jose State, I participated in a ton of campus events, especially with the filipino club known as, Akbayan. Akbayan has hosted a ton of events and one of my favorite ones was Maboohay, which was a cultural show that showcased talented filipino american artist dancing, singing, and some improv as well. The highlight of the night was the set performed by Gabe Bondoc, Leejay Abucayan, and Passion. Their set consisted of a medley of songs you would want to hear them cover and a couple of their originals. Maboohay was overall a FANTASTIC EVENT! I shall come back next year.

Another event I have attend in the fall semester was an event held in the Dining Commons which showcased tons of food from around the world. And the best part, IT WAS FREE. I've had many taste from around the world whether it was from VIETNAM (HELLA SPICY SANDWICH), or France which gave out the most delicious crepes I have ever devoured. Along with the food they also had raffles and dance performances by the man cultural clubs in San Jose State. I would also want to attend this event again!

Two MUSE workshops

Throughout my first fall semester of attending San Jose State, I have attended two MUSE workshops. These two workshops were about how to build a Resume and Time Manage. I have learned many things about these certain topics, which will definitely help me out with my college education.

The Resume workshop was one of the first MUSE workshops I attended. It was held in the Career Center in a little room where they usually host most career helping workshops. The Lecturer, whose name I could not remember gave us a template of a resume to see what we can build on and helpful tips we can use in each section.

The second workshop I attended was about Time Management. To my surprise, I came late for this workshop, which shows how much I can manage my time -___-. The representative from the counseling services gave us a hand out and gave us a few tips on how to manage our time. One big tip they gave us was to have an agenda or some type of calendar to keep us on track. Another helpful tip was to always plan out the day from when it starts to when it ends.

Skills (Response to Chapter 12)

When growing up, I never really stuck into a specific skill as I always found myself following certain trends like pokemon cards, skateboarding, myspace, etc. Recently during my 7th and 8th grade year, I started to become involved in school activities such as the Associated Student Body, the Filipino Youth Coalition, and the Filipino Club. Being part of these programs raised my communication skills as well as expanded my network as I got to meet a lot of people during these programs. I not only progressed in communications, but I found journalism to pretty interesting as well as I decided to start blogging as well as taking pictures with a DSLR camera. As I entered college, I chose to become a communications major as I enjoy communicating with other people. In the future, I hope to graduate with a bachelors degree and probably become or teacher or work for a major company as a spokesperson. These future ideas may easily change as i'm constantly exposed to new things that are really interesting.

Money Money Money (In response to chapter 12)

Money plays a big part in anyone's life, especially in college. I find myself spending the money I have left of my summer job on my own personal needs when it's possible to use save this money for more valuable items. My parents constantly get mad at me as I do this obnoxious spending as I spend most of my money on food when that money could be saved and I could just eat at home keeping that money that would've left my hands. I'm currently looking for a job in order to have money that I can personally use. But as I receive this money I'm looking to set my limits in order to save money and make it useful.
