I tried to search in Google if there’s a website that will allow us to make money through watching free videos online and I bumped into this one. The site name is GitCoin. You will earn points by watching videos but not only that but there’s a lot of option in earning points.

In my part, I just focused on the videos. I tested the site for a few hours for about five days. I accumulated about 514,000 points with the equivalent of $5.15. It is not bad at all. Just now, March 20, 2017 I tried to withdraw the points towards my Paypal.

My Ideal Arts Classroom

bhelle 9:26 pm 0 Comments

My ideal art room may have some characteristics that are different from the regular classroom. One important thing I may consider first is the four corner wall since this is the foundation for all learning activity. What I mean for this is the painting and accommodation; it should be comfortable, calm and inviting for children to enjoy and have fun while staying and learning in my art room. On the first wall, there will be a display art gallery of their finished product, so that it is easy for them to review and discuss their works. Aside from that, there will be also a display cabinet on the second wall, this will be for the architectural-sculptural artworks and it should be near the windows facing to the hallways where teachers and other students can see the display. My third wall will be the storage and lockers where I can store all my valuable things, arts stuff and or any materials involving arts and crafts. On the last wall, will be my smart board and some electrical outlets. Talking about storage, there will be a lot of shelves and drying racks. Includes with these are deep and wider drawer for large paper and posters if any. In my art room, every inch of space is considered valuable.

Lighting is a must in arts room. There will be lights on the middle of the room and if there is natural light coming from the window, curtains will be applied if necessary. Direct and zoned lighting is important so these options will be present in my ideal art room. Students will be comfortable putting their creative imagination into real piece of arts if light is very compelling.

Sink is also vital in arts room. This is where the students do their cleaning, like washing arts tools and hand. The location will be beside the corner of working counter space, it is large and resistant of acid or any chemicals. So much for that, I consider also the flooring that it is sealed and not carpeted. It is easy for the students to clean up the mess. In addition, there will be an exhausted fan to suck up dust or any undesirable odors or particles to make the atmosphere clean and breathe safely. Also cupboards, working counters are present, those will be located below the hanging work displays and beside the smart board.

All my art supply will be non-toxic, it is expensive but it is worthy to make sure that all students are safe. I even consider introducing a recycled product, in this way, we can save money and help the environment. Like, paper bag, cardboard boxes, plastic bottles, etc. can be useful in making arts.

What a Coincidence?

My due date for giving birth to my third child will supposedly on September 11, however, due to some complications during my pregnancy the doctor decided to take the baby out before this date and that was last month of August the 11^th. My baby is now a month old.

I was not really hoping to have my baby born at this date because this was the date of my father’s death. I was really hoping that my baby will be born after this date but to save the life of my baby I left with no choice.

Is it really a coincidence? When I knew that I am pregnant early this year, I spoke to my husband and told him “What if the baby will be born the same date as my father passed away?” Until now, I am still mourning for his death, maybe somehow, our Heavenly Father finds a way to fulfill the gaps of my happiness as of this moment? I really don’t know. My husband told me that my thoughts was impossible so I just leave it hanging and said to myself. I am just thinking too much and worried.

The periods of my pregnancy went well until the month of July. The gestational diabetes went bad and so the condition of the baby inside. I never had an ultrasound this much until the month of July which was done every 48 hours after nurses monitored the baby’s heartbeat. I was so worried for everything but left everything to God’s hand, whatever happens, there’s a reason for it. I never forget the gesture of the doctor three days before the 11^th of August, while doing the ultrasound. She tried to smile at me and spoke calmly about the situation of my baby. She did not really pointed-out that C section within 24 to 48 hours will be done depending on the changes of the condition inside. But when I went to see the doctor for diabetes he said that my C-section will be on the 11^th of August thus he gave me instructions on how to prepare myself, this involved of how much dosage I had to take of the insulin the night before the operation.

After two days which was August 11, 2013 I went back to the hospital for monitor and ultrasound. It was so devastating when I heard the baby’s heartbeats stopped every minute. I started to cry and panicked, same views when the doctor did the ultrasound right after the heartbeat monitor. The baby didn’t move at all. What we heard was just hiccups and that wasn’t counted as movement. Right at that moment, the doctor decided for the emergency C-section. The operation lasted for almost 5 hours. The doctor confirmed that was the most difficult operation she ever had.

Until now, I still can’t imagine how coincidence was my thought of having my baby born same date as my father’s death? Frankly speaking, I have mix emotions sad and happiness at the same time, thinking and of course celebrating two different events in one.
