Avatar

1. How do you define an avatar? Enumerate the consensus definition.
      - It represent one's feeling,like,wants,character and his/her own personality/self

2. Does definition of what character or personality your avatar has would only be defined in the role-playing games? Explain your answers.


      - No, because it can represent your own feelings to other and likes it can be you in outside world and the things that your self represent to other people.

3. Do you want to be defined as an individual or entity virtually based on your avatar or online name? Why or why not.


      - Yes, because it is me and I choose it so I need to have credits on it

4. Do you find any significance of having a purposeful avatar or online identity? 


      - Yes, because it can be my new identity that differ in outside world because you can be what you want in online that no one will bother your likes and what feel to say or to do.


5. Does having multiple characters imply negative or positive impact to the person? Give at least two examples and explain your answers.


      - Yes, like my friend he is very friendly and giving in outside world but in online he's character once been like a bad influence so that the people look to him in outside world is also a bad influence guy that is opposite what he really is. Second, is that I always talk to people gentle and good and I also help them to their problems and I say my opinion it is positive because I gain more friends in outside world and they look at me as a really good person.

6. If you will be asked to make an avatar for yourself today as a Social Being in the #Socmed class, how will you draw your avatar? And what #onlinename will you use?



      -  I will use lomax combination of Low and Maximum

My Treasured Moment/Experience in my Life


There is an unforgettable childhood experience, for all of us. There could be many experiences or just one. There are really a lot of good and bad experience we had since we are a child.

Now that I'm already a grown up man who's already taking a degree and a 1st year college student. Remembering my childhood experience is really awesome and wonderful to do. Telling my childhood experience to my friends and classmates is a thing that I really want to do. Because I have a lot of stories to tell about my childhood experience it could be a good thing and a bad thing. This memory will last forever in my life and no one could ever change or take it away.

My childhood experience compare to other is really unforgettable and I really want to turn back those times. When we are children playing with others and doing naughty things is normal but I will not tell anymore about those kinds of childhood stories because for me the most unforgettable moment in Childhood Experience, that I will never forget the experience that not all people can experience and done.

My unforgettable experience that when I was about to finish my preparatory stage. Hmmm, you are thinking why it is special for me because it is just not just graduating in preparatory that all of us has done. It is still clear in my mind and I can still remember those moments when I was going to graduate my preparatory stage. It is really a hard week before graduation all of us is practicing for that day. A hassle week that I really need to work hard because speaking in front of hundreds of people is a hard thing for a 5 - 6 years old child like me in that time. I really need to prepare to speak in front of people memorizing my speech and what I want to be in the future. It is clear until now to me that my dream is to become an mechanical engineer but suddenly I picked this course and put it in my 1st choice in my College entrance test in DLSU. Even I'm in engineering class when I was in 4th year High School I continue to pursue this course of mine now. It is very unforgettable because I was in the top 10 in the graduating class we are about 120 preparatory student that time and being part of the honor student is a great achievement to me even though I'm just a little boy that time because not all prep students got a high grade that I had done that all parents want to experience for their children to have a good experience and achievement like that.The day come and I speak in front of parents and my co-graduate students, I was nervous that time it is clear in my mind until now when I'm remembering it I can still hear the voices and the feeling I feel that moment in that stage. I almost forgot my line but manage to say it even though the other line is not part of my script it was my own words that save me because of the hard work I done understanding what I done and what I want to be. And I admit that even when I was a child I'm already not good in public speaking I admit that but I already manage to surpass it because of my hard work. After that wonderful speech I gave I hear the clapping of people surrounding me and like I'm really proud specially when I saw my Mom and Dad stand and clap very load and almost all people stand and clap for me. Even I was a child seeing my parents specially that time very happy for me is very astonishing and special moment for me. It is a unforgettable moment and experience for me.Well, it was a short story of my life and thank you for reading my remarkable experience when I was a child. How bout you what is your unforgettable moment?
