Paper 2 (Airplane Ride)

              

              Riding a plane was one of my best experience in this world. When I was still in 2nd year high school, it was my very first time to take a flight, it was very exciting and I felt a little nervous that time because I am afraid of heights. We were heading Cebu that time and I was with my little brother, 2 aunts, and 1 uncle. Every one of us dreams to have a chance to ride an airplane but we don’t have any sufficient money to buy tickets and we don’t know where to go. Our Field trip and Seminar will be on September 7-11, 2015. Our facilitator, Randy S. Gamboa, will be facilitating and guiding us on our Field trip and Seminar. Our Field trip and Seminar is one of the most important and exciting subject on our curriculum because it involves travelling, going to different kinds of IT companies or companies with different kinds of system, technologically, training, team building, and sometimes workshops.  
 
                I will be experiencing another plane ride but with my classmates and friends. I was really excited after knowing that we will be having our Field trip and Seminar outside Mindanao, Manila. I expect that this experience will be a fun and exciting experience because I will be travelling together with my friends. Not only fun and exciting but also an educational and memorable experience. Many of us really wants to experience great things in life. I know that every one of us is really excited on having to ride a plane and to enjoy watching the beautiful creations of our God. I expect that all of us will be behaving inside the airplane. I really want to take a plane ride with my family and especially with my love one. Some of the people like business man, a leader of a national or international organization, tourist, rides a plane most of the time because some important matters and to go to a new place where they can relax and enjoy different places in this world. I know that every one of us really wants to travel to a very beautiful place to relax and to release all of the stress from school or from work. We really also want to explore new places and observe their culture and their kind of environment. 

This subject can really benefit us in terms of learning how do workers work on a company and all about other things that works inside the company especially machines or systems that can support the company to lessen their effort and save more time. We will be studying and observing different kinds of system and how their system works on their company and what are its impact to the company. This will enable us to gain information for future use in designing, constructing and developing new ideas and innovations. This will allow us to think more possibilities and increases our thinking skills and extend our limit of learning. This will also help us to boost our confidence in facing different kinds of people and when talking about your learnings in front of them.  This activity will also discipline us and make us a better
                I expect that all of our papers or documents needed will be secured. I know that some of us, including me, are very clumsy and forgetful. This kind of characteristic should be avoided. These documents are very important especially the ticket because we can’t go back to Davao if our ticket will be lost unless you’ll buy a new one. I am really excited to ride a plane. I expect that all of us will be there, organized. I hope every one of us will be attending and joining on our Field trip and seminar. I expect that all of us will be in the airport 1-2 hours before the time of our flight. I expect that there will be no late comers in order to have no pressures. I am really excited to visit IT companies and study and observe their system. I hope I will be having a sufficient allowance for our Field Trip and Seminar. I expect that all of us will be following the directions and rules, properly, because this will enable us to have a wonderful trip or a fun and exciting plane ride. 

                I hope no one will be vomiting during our flight. I also experienced to enter on the airplane’s comfort room and it was so clean and classy. I am really glad about this kind of course activity because I am pretty sure that the speakers of the seminars are truly great and amazing. I really want to listen about some helpful tips of being a technopreneur and some inspirational words from the speaker. I also want to listen to their story of how they become great and amazing human. 

This kind of activity is a very good example of teaching students to observe and create new, unique and helpful ideas on the different kinds of environment. This will truly help us to become a better person and successful professionals soon. We must climb and reach further to where success is. It encourages us to think of other business ideas which can help us soon. This is also a good opportunity to build and strengthen a team because the more the merrier and more ideas. More ideas, it helps us to think what’s best. We, students from this subject, will surely gain a lot of knowledge and ideas. This is also a good way to generate our limitless imagination and inspiration. This is not just a Field Trip and Seminars. We are also given time to go to places where happiness and fun are located like Enchanted kingdom. We will be given an unlimited ride in enchanted kingdom. I am very excited to try and enjoy all fun rides with my classmates and friends. We are also given time for shopping and malls. I wish my allowance will be enough for me to buy something, a remembrance, I would like to make this fun and learning activity memorable. 

I know that God will guide us wherever we go. He’s always there for us. He gives us strength, knowledge, wisdom, and etc. to make every single day more happy and productive. I know that he will never leave us. I expect that I may learn a lot from this Field trip and Seminar especially for the incoming experiences. Every one of us needs a break, to relax and to go for an adventure. I am also excited about this trip because I will be having our field trip and seminar together with my friends and my classmates. Each of us are very excited to have this amazing trip. I hope and I pray that we will be safe wherever we will go and we will be enjoying every single moment. This is also the time where we can escape from school works and examinations because of this educational getaway. Even the facilitator they also need to take a break because we all know that the work of a facilitator is very stressful. At first, I was very nervous on taking my first flight because I don’t know what will happen and I saw a lot of plane crashes on the TV. I am not afraid because I know that God is guiding us always and he keeps us always from accidents and dangers. I felt so frightened and scared when I experience my first flight. It’s hard to know what to expect, and even the smallest occurrence can be stressful and confusing. I had many fears about the flight journey like phobia about takeoff and landing. I was told by my aunt not to think too much about it. 

According to Shallowharold, Fear of flying is a fear of being on an airplane (aero plane), or other flying vehicles, such as helicopters, while in flight. It is also stated to as flying phobia, flight phobia, aviophobia, or aerophobia (although the last also means a fear of drafts or of fresh air). Fear of flying may be a distinct in phobia itself, or it may be an indirect combination if one or more other conditions, such as claustrophobia, a phobia of being restricted, confined, or unable to escape, or acrophobia, anxiety or fear of being at a great height. It may have other causes well, such as agoraphobia, especially the type that has to do with having a panic attack in a place they can’t escape from. It is a symptom rather than a disease, and different causes may bring it about in different individuals. The phobia receives more attention than most other phobias because air travel is often difficult for people to avoid – especially in professional contexts – and because it is common, affecting a significant minority of the population. Inability to maintain emotional control when aloft may prevent a person from going on vacations or visiting family and friends, and it can cripple the career of a business person by preventing them from travelling on work-related businesses.

According to Martin N. Seif, PhD, ABPP, Overcoming a fear of flying takes a lot of bravery and exercise. But it is possible with appropriate treatment. I never flew until I was almost 30 years old, and getting over my own fright of flying was one of the most difficult achievement of my life. If you can successfully identify the triggers that produce your nervousness, you’ve taken the first step. It’s very important to note that fear of flying is not a single phobia. Most people who fear flying are claustrophobic, or frightened of being locked in the plane and unable to choose when to get off. A phobia is an intense fear that is out of proportion to the danger, which is particularly relevant to fears of flying. Most “flight Phobics” agree that flying is safe, yet frightening. They have heard time reconciling their fear with safety statistics. Although we know our phobias are not logical, we cannot reason ourselves out of one.

Educations helps calm anxiety, too: how a plane flies, facts about turbulence, and the meaning of the various sounds and bumps during a normal flight. Virtual reality programs, during which fearful flies are exposed to computer simulations or flight triggers, are also helpful. So, too, are the flight simulators that are ordinarily used to teach private pilots how to fly small planes.

In order to have an enjoyable flight I searched some tips on the internet just to have some knowledge in enjoying our flight. I am really excited for our field trip and seminar this upcoming September. I am so motivated to explore new things and to experience new environment. Learning new things are such a wonderful experience because whenever I want to learn new things I am very curious about it and I want to enjoy learning about it. God is with us always, I pray that every one of us will be staying healthy and physically fit so that all of us, my classmates, will be joining the field trip and seminar together. I hope that all of us are well-prepared on the day of our flight. 

Leonardo Da Vinci said, “Once you have tasted flight, you will forever walk the earth with your eyes turned skyward, for there you have been, and there you will always long to return.”

We are going to another place in this world to explore new, wonderful, and exciting things. To expand our knowledge about our course and to make us think more deeply about different kinds of systems and how the system does works. This is a very important event for us and a dream come true for us to visit big IT companies. We will be learning new things and some important tips from the seminars. I know that each of my classmates are ready to take their first/next flight and I know that some of them are already preparing. This Field trip and Seminar is very expensive for us but we all know that the experiences and learnings we’re getting from this event will lead us to become a successful IT professional or a successful Technopreneur.
