9 Dots Reflection

Last Tuesday on June 17^th of this year in that day early morning I was so rush just like “The Flash” because I’m running out of time to the class of sir RSG while I’m in the tricycle going to University of Southeastern Philippines (USEP) I remember that sir RSG if you are his student and you came late or absent to his class you will having a talent show in the front of the class, that’s why while in the tricycle I refresh all the songs that I memorize a stanza or a paragraph of the song and to be perform in front of the class. So when I came in the class late, I sang entitled “ Don’t touch my birdie ” performed by: Parokya ni Edgar when I started to sing all my classmates and sir RSG was laugh because of the song I performed in front of the class. Not only the late performed but also the virgins present in that day there so many and more than 45mins to end the talent show.

So when the talent show is done sir RSG, he give a task called “9dots” before we started to answer or solve the puzzle called “9dots” sir RSG asked us if we have a yellow paper, so if you don’t have like sir RSG said to all students that have a yellow paper “Don’t dare to give a yellow paper you must sell it to them” the price of that paper is 50 pesos each, so I bought to my classmate only 1 paper but the cost is 50 pesos each and also ball pen if you don’t have you need to bought only a hundred pesos (100) each. When I started to solve the puzzle at first I’m confidence that I can solve the task in minute so I tried many times all the possible answer I tried my brains I think have been working overtime on that day to answer only the puzzle, and also my classmates determined to solve the puzzle because of the reward of thousand points that sir RSG wants to give to the students who can solve the puzzle.

So me trying again to solve the puzzle the “9dots” but me I never stop trying to solve because I know that puzzle is very simple it’s like a life that you’ve been given a task or a problem that you facing now like example the financial problem as we all know that one of the reason why some of students stop or a lot of out of school youth, it’s because that “financial problem” or “money” are not even solve until now because we or some of people is what they saw or what happening to their life they contented, like if eating in three (3) times in a day but they don’t know they can get all what they want if their see not only focusing in their situation only they must see the environment or around to them what happening and to be aware to their surroundings. So back to the puzzle if we not only focusing in our situation or focus to the dots, because our mind or my brain is having a situation of rushing mode as we all know our brain is needed to take a rest and in that day or time my brain is not a good condition having a haggard time. And one of the old students of our very owned sir RSG answer it his name is Kuya Bern, kuya Bern said “sir RSG” gave that already last few years ago in their class that’s he know how to solve the puzzle. Sir RSG asked kuya Bern how you solve the puzzle or how you analyse it, kuya Bern replied “don’t know sir”, sir RSG only explain the “9dots”.

Sir RSG said that if they have a task and have an instruction we need to analyse the instruction what they give to us make it sure were not only focus in the situation we need to see the outside of the task or instruction to see if our path is they have a goal or going to success. When kuya Bern answer it the “9dots” I was amazed and wonder how did kuya Bern do that, and he do only 4 strokes but I wonder is it right? If the strokes is outside the box?  A lot of question that came into my brain and when the puzzle solve my brain back becomes alive and a lot of question and wonder.

When sir RSG started to explain how and why is right like that formation of the strokes and accomplished the task, and he also tells a story of some great men and he’s one of them sir RSG have a friend he said that why some of the graduates is thinking always going to the abroad to around the world to make some money and to get higher wage that’s sir said but our own place or the country is not well having a good place other than abroad that high technology, our best graduates here is going abroad to find a work and get more money more than they expect and move forward to other places and some of graduates not so good in this business are stay here in our place they work hard here to make the city get high stats in this business and to be well known other places that in this kind of business we can do make it to the top. And if some graduates is have a purpose to going outside the country it’s because they want to tell everyone in this growing business they can compete to them and more competitive other than the people around them in the other country.

And I’ve a lot of learning to the story of the life of sir RSG some he tell I wanna try example to make the Davao City one of the fastest growing technology city in the country and I hope someday I gonna put at the top of this business of technology and develop more ideas that not only here in the city but also to world and to make our city at the top of the business technology.
