My Favorite Author and Book
"Don’t judge a book by its cover.”
We all know that life is full of surprises, like a book every page has its own meanings but what’s important is its content. The content defines what is really meant by the author. Book is where we can get information; inspirational, moral lessons and learning’s that can help you develop your intellectual and emotional aspect. I’m not really reading a lot of books, but since I’ve been taking this course I learned to love books. Now I realized the importance of books. My favorite author is no other than Bo Sanchez. His books are full of inspirations about life with God. I read his books since I start my tertiary level. He inspires a lot of people who are experiencing trials and burdens in life. He shares a lot of testimonies happened in his own life that has great impact to us. He wrote several books about his life experiences. He finds life very interesting and full of challenges. He has a happy family with two handsome sons. He is now living in
Bo Sanchez has strong faith in God. Among his works are How to find your one true love and your past does not define your future. These two books are among my favorites. Bo Sanchez also writes for magazine entitled “Kerygma” it contains stories of faithful souls in the body of believers. I really love being inspired by others because through this I become strong and have enough strength to face challenges that God set for me. Another favorite book is “Your past does not define your future”. It talks about taking our journey as our pilgrimage is not yet over. Our beautiful future waits because our past does not define our future. This book contains good stories about life, the experiences and learning. It also about Bo’s own experiences in life, the book signifies that no one can determine the future. What happens in the past does not define our future; I found myself contentment in reading Bo Sanchez books.
Getting to know me better!
About me: Christine Joyce Estimo
“Things May change, but not the real me”
By the way, its my pleasure to write about me….my life, my weaknesses, my inspiration and my pleasant moments in life. I’m Christine Joyce Estimo, my friends call me “joyce” sometimes or just call me “tin2x” for short; I’m already 19 years old, and enjoying my life. I’m living with my happy, supportive, loving and caring family. Somebody said I am a spoiled brat but it’s not true. We are currently living in Polomolok,
Nineteen years of striving and keeping me abreast of what’s going on, my faith in God is my strongest assets in life. I am thankful and blessed with many things that made me become a stronger person. I have my three main weaknesses: First, is God, now I’m entering in spiritual maturity and following all of His laws. I enjoy being accompanied by Him. I am blessed because He gave me grace, to have a chance to send myself to school. That is one of the best things that happen to my entire life. Everything will happen according to His will and plans. Each one in this world, God has set a beautiful and wonderful plan. It only strengthened our faith in Him. Secondly, My Family, They are my companions when I am experiencing trials and barriers in my life. The great thing is, we work and help each other, respect and understanding are important to us. I live and continue striving for goals and studies. I set them also as my Inspirations. Third, are my friends and special persons around me! Generally, I value every person that comes into my life, not only in actions but also inside of my heart.
Nevertheless, I am a person full of imagination. I am always faithful to God and ready to serve Him and my family. I also enjoy my dance group because through dance I can really express myself. I really love to dance. I joined a dance group called “THE FALEH” ( Filipino Art Lover of Ethnic Heritage). I was one of the members of that group. We performed different dances which were ethnic, pop, cheer dance, interpretative, and dance sports. High school life is the most enjoyable moment of my entire life. I experience meeting people from other places. I’ve learned their culture too much as I expected. High school graduation day was somewhat sad because that day will be the last day for us to perform a dance to our school. For our performances, we were awarded as the “Best Performers of the Year”.
Now, I currently studying and pursuing my dreams, at Notre Dame of Dadiangas University, a prestigious university here in General Santos City. I’m taking up Bachelor of Science in Library Information Science (BSLIS). I’m now on my 2nd year. It’s hard because at the same time I’m working in this institution as Grant In- Aid (GIA). After two years of separation from my friends, I still missed our unforgettable moments. Now that I’m in tertiary level, I want to focus on my academics aspect and lie low in my co– curricular activities. I love reading books, something that really inspired me I can get moral lessons about life. I am a music lover. Sometimes, I choreograph my own steps, because dancing is my hobby in our house. Every morning I exercise with a group in our place, called “TIBO”. Now I am serving God in our church, and one of the officers their. I’m helping them improve our church. Now I can proudly say that I am a certified Christian. My mom doesn’t really want me to go church of other religion but I keep on praying that she will support me on what I want to do in my life. It’s difficult but I’m trying to pursue it. Through the help also of our Creator, I know that day will come.
Thank God, I really enjoy my new chapter in my life. I really believe that “Life is like a Rosary, that’s full of Mystery”. Hope you like reading this. And thank you for the time you spent to read things about me….I find it interesting to write about my life. I hope you find also God in your life. That’s all.

Learining Web 2.0 Environment
Learing Web 2.0 is very easy if you know the concepts of the Application. As Ms. Lyna Estabillo our teacher, taught us. The first thing that comes in my mind is how can be creative? using this Environment; as our lesson go further until it finish, now I understand and I find it very interesting.
It was March 5, 2009 when we have an hands - on to apply learnings in Web 2.0. I thought need to be teach all the times before we learn, buy the realization comes that learning is individual nature. We add a gadget to our blogs to make it beautiful and creative, following the steps by step procedure is very easy. Putting videos and slideshows are only those we do. We also taught us, how to connect added information from the other website. We just click and click to add it, we find also difficult in loading the site because of the server, but of course if not we finish it easily. Patience is being valued to this.
I expect I could learn much more to share to other. And explore more in using those application. As what I've said that learning is individual nature, we need to take action to apply our learning it is not just only in discussing but also in taken action. I can express my own creativity and make it beatiful through these.

Word for day
2 Timothy 1:8-9 NIV
"So do not be ashamed to testify about our Lord, or ashamed of me his prisoner. But join with me in suffering for the gospel, by the power of God, who has saved us and called us to a holy life - not because of anything we have done but because of his own purpose and grace. This grace was given us in Christ Jesus before the beginning of time..."
2 Timothy 1:8-9 NIV
