My term paper was about the advantages and the disadvantages of using ebooks as alternative for books. At first, it was really not  my plan to have it as my term paper topic but due to shortage of topics that I had in mind, I ended up with this topic. The first thing that I had in mind as a term paper topic was about blogs: its therapeutic effects to people but with the help of my teacher, I realized that it is very difficult and maybe I would have a hard time looking for sources about this topic so I changed it and moved to another topic.

         The second topic that I chose was about animations and how it evolved through time, but still it did not reach the standards of our teacher so I searched again for another topic. I was already frustrated in my search for a possible topic yet I still had the patience to search and finally when our teacher asked if who wants to consult her regarding our term paper topics, I waited for my turn and asked her if "the advantages and disadvantages of using ebooks as alternative for books" a good topic. And fortunately, she accepted my term paper topic.

         I searched for the sources that I will be using for my term paper. I was worried that I would not be able to reach the minimum number of sources and luckily, I was able to reach it.


         Making the thesis statement really takes time and needs a lot of thinking. I was dumbfounded doing the thesis statement because I really don't know how to start making one. My first submitted thesis statement was corrected by our teacher and made me to revise it. After that was the outline-making for the body of the term paper.

        The making of the outline was also difficult because the outline that we will be having is the one that is taken from our thesis statement. It means that the outline is based on our thesis statement. The one that I first submitted was already correct but what lacks are the examples under every category.

        The body was already done after making the outline. Next was the encoding and the defense for our term paper. We had a hard time encoding all the parts of our term paper because we were instructed to expand the content of its body.

         The defense was fun although nerve-racking but we were given only 5 minutes to present our term paper and 3 minutes for the Q&A portion so we did our best in the presentation. Our defense was successful and voila!we are already through with the term paper. English 2 is really over. :)  

          I agree to what Donna blogged about the song AT THE BEGINNING because it is one of my favorite songs especially in my high school years. It was also the song that made my classmates to be friends again in my first year high school class because of some misunderstanding in choosing a song to be performed in our music class. The song that they quarreled about was OUT OF REACH.

         I also liked the message of the song because it is about friendship. I value my friends very much and maybe that's the reason why I chose Donna's blog about this song because I can relate to it.

         Listening to this song makes me reminisce all the things that happened to me together with my friends.

Whenever I hear songs from different singers, I don't easily get attracted to their songs.Maybe my type of songs depends on the singer who performs it and the music itself if it is attractive or pleasant to hear.


I chose this song because I love listening to Avril Lavigne's songs and I am a fan of hers. This song was about a relationship that doesn't work out anymore. It was about two persons who thought that they were meant for each other but later found out that it's not the same with what relationship they had now. It seems like they lost that magical feeling that they had before.


Everytime I hear this song, it always make me want to sing along with it. It stays in my mind and just keeps on playing. I can't explain further, it's just that i really like this song.


Listen and watch for yourself if I am right or wrong. Here's the video. Enjoy! :)





You can sing also sing along. Here's the lyrics:


My Happy Ending

Oh oh, oh oh
So much for my happy ending

Oh oh, oh oh
So much for my happy ending

Oh oh, oh oh, oh oooooh....

Let`s talk this over
It`s not like we`re dead
Was it something I did?
Was it something you said?

Don`t leave me hangin`
In a city so dead
Held up so high 
On such a breakable thread

[Pre-Chorus:]
You were all the things I thought I knew
And I thought we could be

[Chorus:]
You were everything, everything that I wanted 
We were meant to be, supposed to be
But we lost it (but we lost it)
All of the memories, so close to me
Just fade away
All this time you were pretending
So much for my happy ending

Oh oh, oh oh
So much for my happy ending (Oh oh, oh oh)

Oh oh, oh oh

You`ve got your dumb friends
I know what they say
They tell you I`m difficult
But so are they (So are they)
But they don`t know me 
Do they even know you? (Even know you)
All the things you hide from me
All the shit that you do (All the shit that you do)

You were all the things I thought I knew
And I thought we could be

[Chorus:]
You were everything, everything that I wanted 
We were meant to be, supposed to be, but we lost it 
all of the memories, so close to me, just fade away
All this time you were pretending
So much for my happy ending

It`s nice to know that you were there,
Thanks for acting like you cared
And making me feel like I was the only one
It`s nice to know we had it all
Thanks for watching as I fall
And letting me know we were done


[Chorus:]
He was everything, everything that I wanted
We were meant to be, supposed to be, but we lost it
And all of the memories, so close to me, just fade away
All this time you were pretending
So much for my happy ending...

[Chorus:]
You were everything, everything that I wanted
And we were meant to be, supposed to be, but we lost it
And all of the memories, so close to me, just fade away
All this time you were pretending
So much for my happy ending

Oh oh, oh oh
So much for my happy ending
Oh oh, oh oh
So much for my happy ending 

Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh....
Oh ooooh....
