Learning Log for Data Networks: Week 5 and 6 (Defense)

It’s been 4 weeks since I enjoyed using the Packet Tracer and with this joy, there are problems that is needed to be faced. Midterm is coming and we all had to study hard especially in our Data Networks and Communications subject specifically our midterm paper presentation. For me and only my opinion, our midterm paper proposal is just a misunderstanding or a miscalculated draft because when we did that draft, we were not able to study more about our proposal and we didn’t have time to really analyze it more, piece by piece. I hope that we could really present our midterm proposal harmoniously and thoroughly without any misconception and misinterpretation. For the past 2 weeks, I have been thinking about our proposal, what we should do, when we should be clarifying it, and how will this work for our group. For the week 5, we only had 1^st meeting, but it should have been 2 due to weather condition, and the first meeting was we did exercise number 5 that shows connection from department to depart, enabling them to transmit emails bi-directionally. The second meeting was unexpected and this is the time when we prolonged our midterm paper and state what we have learned in the internet about the given topic to us. Since the beginning when we passed our midterm paper, I did expect any major corrections, but when we received our drafts it’s just minor corrections and I didn’t expect that kind of feedback because our group knows that it was not well developed, fetus as we say. In the 1^st meeting of week 6, we were relief and glad because we had received much tips and guidance from our professor regarding our proposal, this event had brighten up my day and gave me the will to do the midterm presentation. Also in the 2^nd meeting of week 6, we had learned different kinds of protocols and give me some push on how should I mold my proposal because I know that our proposal is just in the clay layer and it should be well molded before the midterm week. Sad to say that midterm is just days away, but happy to say that there would be a short vacation for us to relax our mind and remember our loved ones who had fallen asleep, I know that we could exceed our best and hope that everything goes well according to our plan.   

Learning Log for Data Networks: Week 3 and 4 (Tracing Diagram)

Another 2 weeks had come since I study the anatomy of network and I began to make some hypothesis towards this subject, but I couldn’t prove it in a short period of time. For the week 3 of our data network, we had begun to use an application called Packet Tracer 101 with the capability to show relations of the different kinds of electronic devices that could be associated with networks. At first I could not cope up with the application and it took me a week before I understand what am I doing those past few days and now I really enjoy using this application because it provides much information to a specific electronic device about their characteristics not only in the application, but also the real characteristics of that device through their physical image representation. The environment of this application could be easily understand by any kind of person because all you need is just displayed in there and you’re the one who will be doing the algorithm, but for all the easiness there is a counter-part and that counter-part is the manipulation of the router. At first I could not be able to follow what my professor is doing because I really don’t know what how to code the right inputs for the router. Then I studied really hard at home to answer all my problems and by the way I downloaded Packet Tracer at home and this is free and now I know how to code the router. You should always check if the ip address, subnet mask, default gateway inputs are similar with the router to be able to have a connection and this is my secondary problem and this made me very mad because the devices in that application have no connection, but I easily apprehended this problem with the help of my seatmate. 2 weeks has passed and now I know how to use the Packet Tracer but not that good, I’m still encountering many hindrances that I could not solve and questions that I could not answer.

Learning Log for Data Networks: Week 1 and 2 (The Beginning)

For my first day, I thought I would fail the subject because of the “Aura” of our professor had shown to us, but when hours pass by I felt the sudden joy in my heart knowing that I have a fighting chance to pass this subject and prove to my parents that I’m doing my best. The time had come for the introduction of our teacher to end then following the discussions. At first I don’t have the will to relate to the discussion because I still have a sembreak fever that are very contagious mostly a day or two after the sembreak, but I notice that it may be beneficiary to me well since this is my desired course and this had struck me.Why do we need network? This a tricky question for someone who had not fully understand the logics of how our technology works, but this question is just a small part of how wide our intimate knowledge about computers. There are a lot to be used in networks like instant messaging, blogs, wikis, etc. and this is just for socialization tools and this helps you to get-in-touch with people far from your location. Networks could be used for learning such as moodle for accurate, available, and consistent study resources for more interrelated knowledge that could be used for the future. There are much more uses for networks and I do not want to elaborate it all because it might be boring for the readers that do not apprehend this kind of topic. So I leave you with this, network is not just network physically, but it is a broad connectivity of vast range interrelated information that could help the society in terms of development not only to the agricultural aspects but also in human entity.

18 - Anti-Smoking Campaign.

Good day to all! Today I will be talking about smoking, all the things that underlines this title in terms of physical,psychological, and mental effects. Sooner or later you might know something about my blog, and maybe my post for this day can/will stop smokers in ever lightening a single cigarette again. I know that this topic is very common for us and the reason of this commonality is that, we don't really pay attention about the subject for today;therefore, resulting to a major addiction or cigarette and persist in lighting them.

Smoking is bad for your health, this is what I heard in the news, on the web, comment of the non-smokers, my parents, my siblings, my grandparent, my teacher, my neighbor, etc. Funny thing to say that this description is somewhat very basic on the understanding for smoking, but the repetition of this advisory is always disregarded by some smokers who is really addicted to cigarette. Some smokers I think will only regard this advisory if the effects of the nicotine are showing in the smokers respiratory system. The way we learn the background of the cigarette has inspired us not to smoke or maybe some are fascinated with this background and started smoking;however, it only depends on the person's perspective about it. If you don't like cigarette then that's your perspective and if others like smoking then that is the way they see smoking and we should respect their decision. For the smokers, always keep in mind that for our every action has a result and the outcome could be a positive on or negative one depending the in the cause of the action. For the hardworking poor men this is very beneficial because on box of cigarette or maybe one stick costs only a few coins and with this few coins, you could actually buy a box of cigarette doubled to the percentage than your original wage, and the reason is because the numbers/population of the smokers are increasing and the productivity of cigarettes are astonishing. Well, for me this is quite scary.

As I end this, I tell you that I am Sammy Angot and I do not smoke. I really hate smoking because on my observation, you don't have any advantages for this action. For me, smoking is a JOKE and smoking is just BURNING YOUR LIFE LITTLE BY LITTLE, so try not to smoke. Okay!?

17 - What Makes Someone a Hero?

A pleasant day for all the readers who will read this post. Today I will be talking about the title given to us by our English Enrichment Program (EEP) coordinator and the title is, What Makes Someone a Hero?. At first, I'm astonish about this topic and I don't know what will I write in this blog. Maybe I would try to ask your opinion about this topic and maybe I will state my own perspectives later on. This are the questions, who is the real hero? What are the qualities in becoming a hero?, and how heroes are created? These are my question to you from me as a hero wannabe, but the real question is how to become a hero yourself?

As google said,  hero is a person, typically a man, who is admired or idealized for courage, outstanding achievements, or noble qualities. Awesome description of google right? But I have my own description, I just use the description of google as my reference in posting this blog and maybe you can use it to. My own description of hero is this: Hero is a person that is responsible, caring, and easy to approach, simple description right? But this description means a lot to me because this is how I see my MOTHER as my hero. My mother is always very kind to me, she takes care of me, she watches me when I am sleeping, she prays for my good health and good life, and surely she is the best mother I have and I would do anything and I mean anything to make her happy, so that I can repay all her goodness bestowed upon to me.

Remember that our mother is like a pearl in the orient that is very precious and delicate; therefore, needed to be handled carefully and I mean carefully. Our mother is also a person who can feel depression, but they don't show it to their kids and to their family, so I really salute them for that.

16 - Amazing Week Referenced from SoCSIT Week.

Good morning/afternoon for all the readers who would read my blog and all the bloggers who would comment below. I'm about to tell you my experiences while this amazing week is happening and also today I am proud to present the good and positive things that you could also encounter during this week, but first let me ask you some certain questions, have you ever think that this SOCSIT week had done alot of wonderful things? Who maintained the peaceful flow of the events in this week? What are the good and positive things that I'm talking about? When did it start and when did it end? Where did the ceremony took place? And how did it all began? This are my questions to you from me that I think will give you the essence of being in that week.

My experience for the SOCSIT Week was the best because all the events were amazing and the flow of the program are really oriented, but I could not attend all the seminars, workshops, and activities during that week because some subject professors just continue on their lessons and forbade us to not attend their individual class. Some professor had to catch-up with their lessons and it is all because of the typhoon that recently  strucked our country that gave us a week of no classes. Above all, I still accept the fact that I could not come to all the events, but I attended a workshop that is supervised by the UXMNL. This workshop was really fun because we did an awesome things that taps into our logical thinking and our way of understanding. I tried to sign-up to the sushi eating contest but I cannot find the registration and also I could not find the preparation for the event.

To formally end my blog, I will now say that evethough I did not feel the real SOCSIT Week, I try to cope up to make this week a wonderful one because this week only comes in a year, so try your best to be a part of this event. I'm happy to say that this week was a wonderful one because this is my first SOCSIT week and this only happens during my college. Thank You
