Processing Questions:

1. What were your thoughts and feelings while answering the activity?

My thoughts and feelings while answering this activity is that we as the youth of this generation we
have to be careful and act our age, because we are still young and dependent to our parents. So if we
make bad decisions that will affect our future it will be very hard for us to cope.

2. What did you discover about yourself after doing the activity?

After doing the activity I discovered about myself that somehow I'm cautious in making decisions, and
I take things slowly and seriously when it comes to having relationships.

3. With previous activities, how would you describe your relationship with your parents? Siblings?
Possible or current romantic relationship? Friends?

I am very greatful and proud for having an understanding and loving parents, even though there are
times that we argue and have misunderstandings, we still try our best to understand and hear each
others side for our problems to be solved.

We do fight but its nothing too serious that would affect our relationship, because we value each
others feelings and emotions

For a possible romantic relationship, I want for us both to be able to sustain life not just for our selves
but for the future family we are to meet.

With my friends, I feel so special and thankful because with them, I can freely express my sentiments
without receiving any judgement. I love and treasure them. I look at my friends as part of my family.

4. Which relationship is most important to you? Why?

5. In what ways do you express your feelings, whether positive or negative?

I'm the type of person who shows and expresses my feeling whethere positive or negative by saying it
out. It lightens me up when I share my thoughts and emotions to the people I trust.

6. If your relationship is not doing very well, what can you do about it?

If my relationship is not doing very well, firstly I give time to myself to think things through and cool
down, the same with the other person involved. When both parties are okay and have cooled down,
that's the time when I make my move in trying to make things better.
