Blog # 6 : E-prime Language.

250 words essay about yourself using the E-prime. To the people who aren't familiar with this language, let me tell you what this is all about. It's all about constructing sentences excluding all forms of "to be". Here are some words that are only allowed to use:

Allowed words

E-prime does not prohibit the following words, because they do not derive from forms of to be. Some of these serve similar grammatical functions 

• become;
• has; have; having; had (I've; you've)
• do; does; doing; did
• can; could
• will; would (they'd)
• shall; should
• ought
• may; might; must
• remain
• equal

So, for my 6th blog entry for my intercomm class, our teacher tasked us to compose an e-prime blog with these questions: 

What kind of things you currently do?
How you feel about life
What kind of personality you have?

Everything remains constant

     In my everyday life, I choose to hang out with my friends and have a marvelous time with my family. I could just spend my whole day swimming at the pool or at any body of water because I have this dream that I just want to stay in the water. Swimming fascinates me. It has been a hobby for me ever since. I joined competitions and won awards as well. I oftentimes do a lot of things that can make people laugh and they  become easily happy. Going to the other side, a mass communication student like me prefer writing poems and essays expressed from the heart, or simply engaging with activities related to my field. I can dance too. I used to dance ballet, jazz, and hip hop until third year high school when I chose to focus more on my studies and pass aside dancing for a while.  One thing that I always do? I smile most of the time. 

     After all my hardships and trials in life, I still have chosen to draw out my dreams and stand up every time I fall. Life has up's and down's. I may not be perfect and I make a billion mistakes, but I make sure that I make them right. We make mistakes so that we could learn and know what to do every time we encounter a certain problem that may pass our lives. We do not have all the time in life, anyone could just lose their breath and might have a tragic death so I consider every single day of the life that God has given me as an important one. One must live with no regrets, and take chances. There's a billion things in my mind when I have come across to the word "life" but I think that we should live like we have a million chances. 

     

     You might actually think that I have a crazy yet hyper personality since I spend most of my time laughing and blurting out a lot of jokes. People know me as a happy person and they seldom see me frown. I have emerged to the kind of person that would always look up to my elders because they know more about life and I believe that they have a greater experience on how to deal with things. When dealing with problems, I immediately take things one at a time and always bear in mind that God will always be there for me. In times of hurt and depression, he has lifted me up and told me to have my faith in Him and have the courage to stand up. I have a soft personality, I do have this attitude wherein I do not even know how to get mad. I guess I have molded to the kind of person that would make people happy, stand up every time I fall and disregard life's hardships by simply taking it as a challenge in aiming high in my goals, dreams and aspirations in life.
