Finishing the topic of malls really made me happy because we get to start a new lesson. I learned many things about the mall. I’m so happy because our professor didn’t let us take the quiz anymore. If we did, I’m pretty sure I will have a hard time answering the quiz because I don’t get the lesson too well back then. Well, at least now I am confident that I’ll pass the quiz if ever she’s going to give us one.


Malls are place where people always go and have fun. There are malls which will suite rich people and poor people. Humans have already labeled these malls in different names and adjectives. For me malls really define who we are, by that, I meant that part of our personality is shown by the type of mall we go to.


There are different malls: for rich, middle class, and poor. For the rich ones it’s the one called greenbelt. It’s already a micro city which blinds them from the reality that there are still people who are in hunger. Middle class and poor people go to malls like SM because SM malls are for everyone. SM malls are made not to let other people be left out. They are made for everyone.


That’s why even the malls we go to can define part of our personality. It will always have its advantages and disadvantages. All we need to do now is accept every people even though are poor or illiterate because they deserve our respect. Let’s not be ignorant in the place we live in. Let’s be real.

We had only meeting this week due to the suspension of classes and our free cut for our project that’s supposed to be due last Friday. Well, I got my pictures for my project at SM mall of Asia. Well, it was fun and exciting to take those pictures. The discussion last Wednesday was good but not as good as the previous ones. I had a hard time understanding the reading because it was not in English though it’s okay because I get to practice my Filipino comprehension.


Well, I hope to finish our discussion this Monday so that we can move on to the next topic. I hope that this topic will help me understand why malls are very important in the history of our country. It’s our landmark already. And there are plans before that they want to make the Philippines the “shopping mecca.”
