MY BUCKET LIST

My Bucket List

·         To surpass the STD

·         To be a dean’s list

·         To be a good mentor

·         To be included in all breaks

·         To pass all the PFTs

·         To be a second class

·         To be a first class

·         To graduate

·         To travel around the Philippines

·         To help others especially my family

·         To become effective and efficient leader

·         To have a happy family

·         To be successful in my chosen career

These bucket list of mine are just some of things I want to accomplish at present time and in the near future. There are other things which comes unexpectedly. And I am trying to do what I can in order to accomplish it.

In order to check all the list written in my bucket list, I will train hard here in the academy. Training is the best experience. A consistent physical training is one of the key to pass the physical fitness tests. Study is also needed for academic matters. To be included for breaks, I should lessen the reports or more effectively, do my best to not be reported. Have a foresight. Think of this, “Graduation is the only way out”. After which, I will earn so that I can also help the people who are need, especially my family. The other extra will be used for my own good, for travelling around the Philippines. The more you sweat in training, the less you bleed in battle. Likewise, an effective and efficient leader is always trying to do what he can do in the trainings plotted. To become a leader, you must have the character. Furthermore, despite my chosen career, I will still make sure that I will have a happy family with beautiful and understanding wife. We will have children which will make me proud of.

A successful man is a contented man. To reach my goals in life, either short-term or long-term, I will always seek God’s providence at all times. “In everything we do, we must do it heartily, as to the Lord and not unto men”.  Be thankful for what God has given you.

 Cherish every moment. We live only once. Strive to be happy in your journey of life. Accomplish your bucket list. If you’ll have the opportunity, grab it.

My Motivations

My Motivations

         

Family

Blood is thicker than water. We all know that family is always there even though the world turns against you. Everyone’s source of inspiration and motivation is no other than but the family.

        

 Friends

They are those people who understands you more other than your family. I consider them also as a family member in a way that they comes next after my family.

          

Self

It is my own desire to become successful. Fulfilling ones owns dream is a way of showing how great you are and the people around you. Others may say you can’t, but it is always you who could really show that you can.

People of the Country

The people of the country needs someone to protect them. Being one of the future leader, let us make sure that we should serve well for them for it is happiness to make a difference.

God

God is the source of everything. He is always there for us. So let us be thankful for the opportunity given for us to lead someday. Other than that, we should always not rely on our own selves, but to seek Godin everything we are doing and we are about to do.

MY AUTOBIOGRAPHY

My Autobiography

                I can no longer remember the number of times I was spanked, neither the date when the first time I entered the school, neither the events that my siblings were scaring me, and many more. Every day we are getting old. It just that the memories last, but not forever.

                My name is Mark Jason Vinuya Paquiz. July 29, 1995 was the day I was born at Tayug, Pangasinan. I am the fourth child of our family, considering that we were five. I was a quiet, shy and curious child at times and also noisy, talkative and naughty child. My childhood dream is to become an engineer someday or maybe a pastor. But now, I am here in the academy as a cadet being trained to become one of the future leaders.

                My earliest memory was when I am crying upon seeing my mother going out of our house to accompany my siblings in going the school. I think I was 2 years old back then. I am crying because I am afraid to see my mother out of my sight. I am grateful to my parents because they took good care of me and nurtured me.

                My lifetime dream is to go to Antarctica. I think I can do it but first, I should earn. If one of my dreams could come true, I would wish for a world peace so that there would be no more riots and/or chaos. One phrase that I will never forget was “Do not blame it to others”.

                The main lesson that my parents taught me was to study hard and aim for something because what I am doing is not for them, rather it is for me. I was influenced by the event that made me mourn. It was the death of my brother. Life is short that is why we should live it to the fullest.

                My favorite movie is Harry Potter. It is because the movie is full of adventures which also I wanted to happen in my life. My motto in life is taken from the scriptures which says, “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding, in all your ways acknowledge Him and He will make your path straight”.

My Personal Manifesto

My Personal Manifesto

It is us who make our own destiny.

                What I stand for and believe during my early teens were different for what I have now. Before, I just do things I want to do. I will do this, and later on, I will do that. Cherish every moment that I have for I am getting old. I am doing things which makes me happy, deciding for my own sake, which my parents allowed me to do so but in a way that those decisions I had decided will not make me suffer. However, there are events that cannot be controlled or out of our own will. These events may have change the way I think, I act, and what I believe, stand and aim for.

                The saddest part of my life happened when my brother died unexpectedly due to an accident. It had changed the whole me. There are lots of questions that entered my mind: Why him? Why now? Why us? What is happening now? Later? And many more. These questions may have answer but those answers cannot ease the feelings of a mourning man. But the greatest question I had asked for myself is that “Why would I do something today beneficial like studying or working if tomorrow then I will still die? It is a tricky question that made me do the things I happened to do for the first time like smoking, drinking, not attending classes, etc. The values I have were gone that time and I have no more direction in life. It was just changed when my late grandfather talked to me and asked questions which hit the hardest part of myself. He hit the mark where my sufferings started, the death of my brother. I did not tell him that he had hit me, but rather I told him that there is still time to change. It may be late but it is better than never changing at all. My grandfather told me not to blame others for the decisions I made and I will make.

                Now, I am living with the words which says, “Do not blame others for the decisions I made and I will make”. It is true because it is our own choice to do those kind of mistakes or wrong doings. I had answered the greatest question then, and believing and living with it; “We never know what will happen next, that is why we should do something that’s of worth. We should not wait for death before doing the things that can make you happy. There are people behind you especially your family. They expect the best of you. Likewise, you should not waste time for something unworthy. Life is short. Do what you can do now. Do not live with regrets later on. Aim for happiness. Make a difference”.

                Life is full of mystery that is why I want to live it courageously. This means that I will be brave enough to face all uncertainties of life, and all the opportunities that may have cross my path. To define myself, I want to be called as flexible but tough. It is because there are different kinds of people that we may encounter, and it is in our part to adjust.
