3. Why the title of the movie “what dreams may come?"

"What dreams may come", makes as the title of the movie because it shows and describes us about the dreams of the characters of the movie. They done their best in order to make their dreams come true. There are lots of our dreams that we did not know what it may come. Only the most high is the one who knows what it may come. We cannot make our dreams come true without the help of the Lord. We have to pray from it for us to be guided and just believe in him. And remember that we don't have to lose our hope.

That day was the second day of my teaching class. I've arrived to school very early. When I arrived at the computer laboratory the computer laboratory was closed. That's why I prefer to stay at room 203. When the buzzer rang. I immediately go to the dean's office to get the projector. But when I asked the dean's secretary, she told me that Ms. Patria have already get the projector.
After a while I have begin my teaching class. I've repeat my discussions that has done from the previous day. And I taught them also the lesson that has not been discussed at the first day of my teaching class. There are times that when I taught to them, It's so obvious that I got nervous but I tried to cope up it. After discussing the lesson I gave them three exercises. The three exercises has a file name. Mexer1, Mexer2 and Mexer3. Since the activity was not done already, Ms. Anjie told me that they have a chance to continue the exercises on Friday because it has no class on Friday.

That day was the 1st day of my teaching class. On that day day I felt so nervous because when I saw the students seeing at me I cant be confident. When time that I've taught them I am not comfortable because I cant properly explained to them the lesson. It's so hard for me to speak in an English language. Some of the words were mispronounced and some grammars were incorrect. I felt so ashamed to the education students because their practicum teacher is not good in teaching. There are some topic will not be discussed properly. That's why Miss Anjie told me to repeat the lesson on the next day of my teaching class.

That day was the third day of observation. When we arrrived at the Computer Laboratory, there has no students yet. After a while the cashier of ACN got closer to us and she asked us who is Acabo. That time when I heard her I felt confused and nervous and I wonder why she asked that. And we found out that her motive is just to give us the task of Ms. Anjie. Ms. Anjie was gave us a task to assist and to fascilitate the students beacuse as that time she's not around. In our group I am the one who act as a teacher. I have explained to them thier lesson and explained to them of what they are going to do. When time that we facilite them, we felt so mad to them because they are not respecful to us. Most of them did not listen and some students were standing. They are so stubborn we cannot relate to them. They grab the opportunity beacuse Ms. Anjie was not around. That day I have so many lesson that I realized. I realized that when you were teaching, you should be strick so that the students will listen to you and they can catch up an attention to you. That is what I have learned on that day.

That day would be the second day of our observation. And thanks God I came very early. I arrived to the school at 7:30 in the morning. I'm happy beacuse I am prepared. The time when Ms. Anjie started the lesson, what we were doing is just to sit at the back. We stand only when Ms. Anjie told us to assist the students to thier respective activity. Ms. Anjie leaved us and she told us that she were come back. After assisting the students, we decided to sit down at the back. And oh no! We felt so nervous when Ms. Anjie have entered to the Computer Laboratory and she found out that we were sitting. After a minute, Ms. Anjie told us to go come nearer to the students so that we can assist them very well. And we have done it. After the class Ms. Anjie reprimanded us to be a good teacher, we must be brave to the student so that they can respect us. She told us to be strict for us that the students did not treat us an easier one. We have learned a big lesson on that day. And we promised that we can do our best that we can apply on that strategy.

That day was the first day of our observation in the class of Ms. Angie Lapez. We observed the class of Ms. Angie to the first year, education students to thier subject ICT 1. On that day, I'm so ashamed because I come very late. When I arrived, my co-praticum teachers were almost finished introducing thereselves. And also aside of being late, I felt ashamed also when I saw my co-practicum teachers wearing thier ojt uniforms but me was wearing the school uniform. I felt nervous when Ms. Angie asked me why I am not wearing our ojt uniform. But to tel you honestly, I don't really know that on that day was the start of wearing of our ojt uniform beacuse my classmates did not text me that we must wear our ojt uniform on that day. Some
students asked me also why I did not wore my ojt uniform. But I prefer that day as a lesson to myself. I promised that I cannot be late and be aware for our ojt subject.
