    All Ages What PE subject did you hate in college?

    We had for PE classes. I did not hate any of them. Even if I am not that athletic, I relished the fact that I can move around more. We had swimming, softball, and football. All were fun for me. Though the first time I actually swam was in PE class, so when we had to run laps, I was...

    Cursive Handwriting?

    I write in cursive. It was taught when I was in gradeschool. It has become my usual writing style. I like how expressive it is. The curves and all. Though, it is not that practical in the real world now. It really depends on how people view it. Though I believe it is a good thing to keep.

    All Ages When Did You Discover You Loved Art

    I started writing when I was in grade school. At first it was journalism, and then I went on to creative writing. Then during high school, I started drawing and a bit of photography. Now, I cannot live my life without writing or doing something creative. It adds color to my life and it is a...

    All Ages What is the easiest instrument kids can learn to play?

    It still boils down the the preference of the child. For me, a piano would be easy to start with. The keys are already laid in front and a bit of training will help the child learn quickly. Interest on certain sounds an instrument make will also determine which is easier. A child's interest...

    Meditation and Learning

    I have been using a certain kind of meditation technique while I was in high school and college. It is a simple breathing meditation where you just breathe deeper while thinking about the things you want to learn. Then use the time to imagine what you are learning while you meditate. It...

    All Ages What part of the human body is hard to draw?

    The hands have always given me a lot of trouble. It is one of the parts that is really difficult for me to finish. Aside from that, trying to make both sides of the face look equal and avoid making it disfigured. Have you even tried drawing the other eye when you have finished the first one...

    All Ages Why do you love art?

    I love art because it allows an outlet for all of my emotions and ideas. Simply letting ideas and emotion pent up inside me only make me feel anxious. I also love to express myself beyond numbers and science. I want to maintain a balance in my life, between logic and art.

    All Ages Drawing or Painting?

    I have been drawing on and off for a long while. I prefer to draw only. I never had the time to learn color theory for painting. I feel more comfortable with the feel of moving a pen or pencil across paper. I also like to use shading using pencil/charcoal as well.

    18+ [Higher Ed] What's your favorite science class?

    Mine was Biology and Physics during High School. I had wonderful teachers back then. I loved Biology more though, especially genetics. I wanted to be a Genetic Engineer as one of my career choices. Exploring the wonders of the genes and how it makes all living things up was very fascinating...

    Should Financial Literacy Be Taught In High School?

    That is what I think too. If school is supposed to prepare us for the real world, why is financial education not really integrated in the curriculum? Even a simple elective class will help the youth prepare for whatever reality will throw at them.

    Should Financial Literacy Be Taught In High School?

    I have graduated from University and now part of the workforce. Now, I am seeing that salaries really cannot fully cover one's needs especially if one has a family to take care of. This got me thinking, should Financial Literacy be taught in High School? Think about it. A lot of young people...

    All Ages What do you think is the most useful instrument to learn?

    I would say the piano. It has a large range of key to help children hear how the notes sound. Since it is laid out in keys, it is easier to play. It can serve as a stepping stone until a child picks his or her own instrument.

    All Ages Most Interesting Event In History

    Short question but I have a lot of answers, but I will stick to two main things. The war between Greeks and Persians, and WWII. I like to look into the strategies employed by the great generals of the past. I have a lot of books on battles during those times, as well as others.

    All Ages Taking Biology

    I loved biology. My professor in High School was a wonderful teacher. I loved it enough that I wanted to take Genetic Engineering. Too bad there are no Genetic Engineering jobs in my country. I almost always got a perfect score in biology in High School. Her technique back then is to...

    All Ages Video games and art.

    When it comes to history, I present two games that I am fond of. The Assassin's Creed and the Total War Series. The art of the Assassin's Creed series lies more on the replication of the historical buildings and ships. The Total War series more about combat and tactics. I also find the art...
