Self-Concept Evinced Through Social Comparison

 Self-Concept Evinced Through Social Comparison

          Social Comparison is merely inevitable. This benevolent generation have made humanity a narrow minded individual. Each of us behests dubious judgements and discord. It is ourselves who often abate and degrade self value prompting inferiority, frustration, low self-esteem and self efficacy, envy and guilt. We all had insecurities, remorse, impurity and an unceasing crave for perfection. Ever and anon, I have also felt this horrendous character. I sometimes yearn for pleasurable qualities and physical perfection envisaging how a certain personality act, behave, and talk. I am just an average individual that engenders mistakes and misgauge. I admit that I am an inept, incompetent, and ineffective being as I have no talent and imperfect. I clandestinely admire those who can sing melodiously, dances veraciously, passionate sketches, well-shaped body and voguish individuals.

          According to Carl Rogers, self-image, self-esteem, and ideal self are the three components of self concept. These three elements can be influenced by social institutions, peers, family, and setting which affects a person variously. Self image are the physical characteristics, social roles, personality traits and emotional capabilities of an individual. Whereas, self esteem is the personal value and subjective judgement of self worth. Ideal self on the other hand is the idealized image of how we would like to look and act created by oneself.

          Social pychologist Leon Festinger proposed the Social Comparison Theory in 1954. The theory explains the process of comparing one's attitude, ability, trait, and capability with others. The two components of Social Comparison Theory are (a) Upward and (b) Downward. Upward Social Comparison is when an individual compares himself/herself with others, nevertheless, this serves as a motivation towards self improvement. However, Downward Social Comparison is when an individual compares oneself to others who are worse than one's capability or attitude.

THYSELF


THYSELF
Do you know who you are?


“People merits more on judging
Seeing every inch of someone’s flaw
Yet they themselves
Are in doubt of who they really are”


         Won’t you ask yourself of who you really are? Won’t you be appalled by the reality that every individual still doubts thyself? Won’t you bother know why aren’t you like somebody whom you wanted to be? Won’t you be sad on the fact that you were like an empty space, wandering and searching for something nor someone unknown? Ask thyself!
          Living in this cruel world has not been easy, people struggle for their daily lives, satisfying their unending wants. Most are onto the raging waves of modern satisfaction, reaching the stairway of benevolent life and up heaving the truthful lies. Human searches for extravagant applaud and seek more for endless discovery yet forgets about their own selves.
         Countless individuals devote their lives for senseless things. This tends to be farcical, most are of narrow-minded set up, and they often seek to gain knowledge but understand too little.
          With accordance to what Lao Tse have said, “He who knows others is clever, but he who knows himself is enlightened”, he is referring to what extent have you known that engraved heart. Have you really discerned yourself?

STONED



STONED
What do a stone symbolize?


A stone gradually implicates two things, boldness and hardships. It’s usually comparable to how we build strong sides of ourselves in terms of how bold are we when we’re challenged.  With relevance to how the stones are arranged in an ordinal manner, it simply reflects that no matter how many times we fall off, just as the stones, we are in capable of building back how we’re supposed to.

 I smile even though it’s not
To hide those fears, it’s a lot
I wore those masks
Not to be tamed by monstrous tusk

RESPECT


                                  RESPECT
What is true respect?


      Respect isn’t a need, it’s an act of showing someone’s value whom was worthy of. It isn’t something given, it’s a choice of what you wanted to show off and clearly depicts of who you are and your moral value despite of the differences we each possess.
        Every each of us was given unique perceptions and how are we to handle it. In our daily lives, we were challenged by circumstances in order   to gain moral values. Most challenged ones excludes these oppugn, and some embraces. Nevertheless, it is still in the hands of the beholder and own choice.

PAGTATANGGOL SA WIKANG FILIPINO, TUNGKULIN NG BAWAT LASALYANO Posisyong Papel


PAGTATANGGOL SA WIKANG FILIPINO, TUNGKULIN NG BAWAT LASALYANO
Posisyong Papel
Rodavelle Galvez Neñez

          Ang wikang Filipino ay naging parte na ng ating kultura, sumisimbolo rin ito ng ating pagkakakilanlan bilang mamamayan ng ating bansa. Ang wikang ito ay naging bahagi na ng ating sarili magmula sa ating kapanganakan. Ang pagkakaroon ng sariling wika ay lubos na mahalaga upang mapalawak at mas madagdagan pa ang ating kaalaman ukol sa sariling atin. Mainam rin ang may sariling wika upang mas makilala natin ang kaligiran at mahasa ang kritikal na pag-aanalisa ukol sa iba’t-ibang bagay na hindi pa natin nalalaman. Mahalaga ito sapagkat ito’y naglalayong mapalawak at mapaunlad ang ating sariling kaalaman ukol sa iba’t-ibang bahagi nito.
          Hindi marapat na tanggalin na lamang ng basta-basta ang sariling atin. Matatapon na lamang ba sa wala ang paghihirap ng mga nasa katungkulan noon na matapang na ipinaglaban ang pagkakaroon ng sariling wika? Marapat lang bang magpasakop tayo sa wika ng mga dayuhan at tuluyang kalimutan ang dati nating kinagisnan?
          Sa isinagawang hakbang ng Commission on Higher Education (CHED) sa Memorandum Order (CMO) No. 20, Series of 2013, hindi lamang mga estudyante at guro ang nagprotesta, maraming indibidwal at eskwelahan na rin ang nagpasyang magsama-sama para sa layuning mapanatili ang wikang Filipino. Ang pagtatanggal ng asignaturang Filipino sa kolehiyo ay maaaring makapagdulot ng kalituhan o kakulangan sa kaalaman sa nasabing asignatura. Maaaring magdulot ito ng pagkalimot sa kalinangan at kahalagahan ng asignatura, kung kaya’t ito’y maaaring makaapekto sa pag-aaral ng isang estudyante.
          Ang pagtatanggal ng asignaturang ito ay malimit na tinutulan ng karamihan, sapagkat naipagsasawalang-bahala na lamang ang sarili nating wika o aralin. Marami man ang tutol sa pagtanggal ng asignaturang ito sa mga kolehiyo, ikinatuwa naman ito ng iba. Hindi maikakaila sa karamihan na pabor sila sa ginawang hakbang na ito, sapagkat para sa kanila’y dagdag lamang ito sa kanilang problema. Subalit marapat lang bang iwaksi natin ang unang ibinigkas ng ating pakiwaring labi? Hindi lang kalinangan ng isipan ang mawawala, pati mga gurong naghirap para lang sa wala ang mawawalan ng kinabukasan. Huwag niyo sanang ibaon sa limot ang pangaral ng ating pambansang bayani, marapat lamang na hindi natin kalimutan ito, bagkus ay itayo natin ang sagisag ng ating pagkakakilanlan.

Paggamot, Medisina, at Wika


Paggamot, Medisina, at Wika
Enrico R. Azicate
Abstrak:  Rodavelle Galvez Neñez
 


          Ang konsepto ng wikang Filipino bilang isang teknikal na wika ay hindi pa gaanong tanggap ng maraming sektor sa kasalukuyang lipunan. Ang wikang teknikal ay masasabing partikular sa isang pangkat o sektor ng lipunan na mayrong pagkadalubahasa, o pagka-eksperto sa isang larangan ng kaalaman. Ito’y isang simpleng usaping pagpapalawak ng bokabularyo, isa rin itong usapin sa pagkaalam at pag-unawa ng isang katangi-tanging daigdig o pangmundong pananaw. Ang wikang siyentipiko at matematiko ng kanluran ay ilan sa mga halimbawa. May dalawang landas ng wika: ang pangkaraniwang wika at ang teknikal na wika.
          Awstronesyano (katutubo), Hudeyo-Kristiyano, at kanlurang siyentipiko ay ang tatlong tradisyon ng paggamot sa Pilipinas. Sa ating kasaysayan hindi lubusang nawala o nabura ang naunang tradisyon ng paggamot. Ang kabigatan ng sakit ay lilitaw batay sa pagkaugnay nito sa bahagi ng taong ginagamot, sino ang gumagamot, at paano ginagamit ang kalagayan. Batay ito sa konsepto ng “structural analogues”. Ang wikang ginagamit sa kanilang diskurso ay hindi teknikal kundi ang wikang pangkaraniwan.
          Ang manggagamot ay mayroong espesyalisasyon na sumusunod sa tatlong panguhaning uri ng sakit. Ang mga sakit ng katawan ang naging sanhi ng pag-usbong ng maraming espesyalista: hilot, albularyo, atbp. Ayon sa mga kastila, mayroon din daw “bne-setters, leech-crafters” at apotekaryo (gumagawa ng gamot). Ang babaylan o katalonan ay espesyalista sa mga sakit ng ginhawa at kaluluwa. At kung itutuloy natin ang lohiko ng ating pag-analisa, ang mga mangkukulam, mambabarang at mga tambalan ay espesyalista rin sa sakit ng ginhawa at kaluluwa.
 

Mga susing salita: wikang Filipino, paggamot, Medisina, structural analogues

Radiant sacrifices




 Love isn’t all about happiness
Nor the joy you felt
It’s all about enduring the sacrifices
That hits like a belt

Ekonomiks sa Diwang Pilipino: Halo-halo, Tingi-tingi at Sari-sari


Ekonomiks sa Diwang Pilipino: Halo-halo, Tingi-tingi at Sari-sari
Tereso S. Tullao Jr.
Abstrak:  Rodavelle Galvez
      

    Ang ekonomiks ay isang sistematikong pamamaraan ng pag-aaral, pagsusuri, pagtitibay, at pagsagot na tumutugon sa problema ng kabuhayan at kaunlaran ng lipunan. Ang pag-aaral na ito ay isinagawa ng may layuning makapagpaunlad sa wikang Filipino sa ating lipunan.  Hindi maikakaila ang importansya ng wika sa atin, ang kahalagahan nito’y naging dahilan ng ating pagkakabuklod-buklod bilang isa, sa pagkakaroon ng sariling wika rin natin mas naipapahayag ang tunay nating saloobin kung kaya’t nagkakaroon ng pagkakaunawaan ukol sa isang bagay. Sa mga nagdaaang henerasyon, maraming sulatin na ang nailimbag, nararapat lamang na ito’y bigyan natin ng puwang at bagkus ay tularan. Ilan sa mga Pilipinong propesor na ito ay sina Isagani Cruz, Nicanor Tiongson, Emerita Quito, Wilfrido Villacorta, at Virgilio Enriquez na gumamit ng wikang Filipino sa pagsusuri, paglilinaw, at pagsasaayos sa iba’t-ibang konsepto ng katauhan, buhay, at lipunan. Tinalakay at sinuri ng sanaysay na ito ang limang pangunahing konsepto sa ekonomiks sa diwang Pilipino. Layunin ng pag-aaral na makapagbigay ng panimulang introduksiyon sa sangay ng agham panlipunan at magamit ang nakuhang kaalaman sa paglutas ng problemang pangkabuhayan at pangkaunlaran sa isyu ng ating lipunan.
 

Mga susing salita: pagpapaunlad ng wika, konsepto sa ekonomiks, diwang Pilipino, problemang pangkabuhayan at pangkaunlaran

E-MAIL
What is an e-mail?


          E-mail (electronic mail) is an essential medium of communication. Messages are relayed in a much convenient way which seamlessly lessens the effort of a user. Most organizations, corporations, and any institutions require e-mail to send some personal messages. Nevertheless, security of messages is not highly acquired. A certain percentage of which messages can be hacked is one of the most worries a user had. Typos and grammatical errors can happen at most time.

DOUBLESPEAK


DOUBLESPEAK
Importance of doublespeak



          Use of doublespeak clearly enhances the creativity of the mind in an obscure manner. These may improve the critical thinking analysis of a person. It is highly suggested when you are to say something that might offend someone, these may lessen the affront of these depicted words. I am in favor with the use of doublespeak for softhearted persons as it has greater advantages. Use of doublespeak makes you look as an educated judgemental person though it creates a blurry image of what you want to convey.

JOURNAL NO. 1 CHEMISTRY AND THE WANDERER


JOURNAL NO. 1
CHEMISTRY AND THE WANDERER 
(1st and 2nd week of June, year 2019)





          Hell year, it is. Another year of humane sacrifice and responsibility has unfortunately come. Vacation was abruptly over and classes were officially opened. It’s ironically a back to basic restart for us, as students. This year’s final staircase towards the bloody battle against failure awaits to those who perseveres.
          CHEMISTRY, a new seed of unknown knowledge have finally grown to its extent. It’s an optimal branch of learning that has challenged the new warriors, of where I belong to. Am I one of those who’ll survive til’ end or am I one of the unfortunate ones? Interesting!
          For these past weeks, expectations aroused to its optimal level. Third of June have been a fresh start for us, seekers of knowledge. Most are enthusiastically inspired to give off their best efforts. While I, on behalf of their warm welcome to the raging burnt of fire have opposed. I ain’t the typical student who comes to school to be praised for high grades. I came to learn new knowledge not to gain numbers, though sometimes I’m tempted. Acceptance to the mere fact that most forgets the essence of schooling, is what usually happens. Each is destined to school to later have a better job, but why can’t some live their lives as young ones? None of my business!
          First and second week of class was delivered in a great manner. All of my expectation (most are commonly negative) have been vanquished, when the background of chemistry was given.  Back when I was in eleventh grade, I was confusedly wondering of what this field of learning talks about. I had really no idea of what chemistry is, before. However, as days passed, things have changed. I’ve had this feeling that I’d love Chemistry, though Chemistry hates me.
          These past two week lessons are given in a concealed manner. I have gain lots of knowledge on the roles of Chemistry in our society and on the introduction of matter and its properties. I have also realized the importance of having chemistry. My first expectation towards chemistry was an opposite to what I have learned. I shouldn’t have judged the subject by its name. How horrible!
          Concerning the delivery of data, the ideas and topics were detailed and is informational. The different topics that we’ve discussed in every meeting have lingered my interest. But what interests me most is the preceding topic, Stoichiometry. I am looking forward to this topic on gaining new knowledge.
          These two weeks of attaining new knowledge was a step towards the long distance finale. Before everything else is forgotten, the teaching style and methods are great which made us learn easily. And of course the teacher itself was great on her own ways. I’m thankful enough that she’s not a monstrous teacher. I like the way she teaches her students and how she bends over to reach us. That was great work.
          I’m looking forward for the next days! Hope I’m one of the survivors on the bloody battle of warriors! Adios!
