 Last year when we are going to introduce ourselves in front of class and at the
last part of introduction, you need to pull some pick-up lines or jokes. When my
time has come, I literally said some boring lines that will make the class silent. I
can read their mind saying “booooo” and I just walk back to my seat and ignore
all of them

Do you usually make better decisions alone or with a group? Why? When do you ask for ask for
help?

 I usually make better decisions alone because all I have to think is myself ; I’m
going to ask for help if there’s something I can’t understand or something I can’t
do it alone

In your experience, when you’re working on a group project, do you make the most decisions or
do you prefer to step back and follow someone else’s guidelines?

 It depends on what type of group project it is

In areas under General Community Quarantine, many have opened business establishments
amidst the rising cases of Covid-19. However, health protocols are implemented to ensure
public safety so that usual business transactions continue. Our economy is badly affected by
this worldwide health crisis but life moves on, citizens are caught in between working for a living
or staying at home for safety health reasons. What is your stand on this?

 Some of the health protocols like social distancing is not being obeyed and this
may cause to risen up the record of the Covid-19 positive. It’s better if we just
stay home unless we’re going to buy something or have a job outside.

Processing Questions:

1. How did you find the activity? What were your thoughts and feelings while answering?
