Narrator 2: Everyone of us is encountering stress in life, but the big question is, how?

how are we going to

cope with it, cope with our stresses. Let us now witness, kung paano nga ba haharapin ng mga estudyanteng
matutuklasan natin ang kanilang mga problema in terms of academic validation and family problem.

Narrator 1: Acely is coming home from school and she is very tired walking because they did a lot of activities
at school, she almost didn't realize that she was close to their house when Camero, his classmate, caught up
with her

Camero: Acely, may notes ka ba sa personal development kanina? About dun sa coping with stress? Pwede
bang pa’send ako pag naka uwi ka na? (naka uniform)

Acely: meron cam, I’ll send it to you later na lang (naka uniform)

Camero: sige Acely, Thankyouuuu, ingat ha

Acely: sigee ikaw din.

Narrator 1: Acely got home already when her mother greeted her with the question,

Mother: How’s school darling? Have you ace your class today? (pambahay/duster)

Acely: Uhm, actually ma, I have a small, ahh very small problem about my quiz today, but kaya ko naman
pong ihandle.

Mother: What? Small problem? Why? Didn’t you study for that quiz of yours? You must fix it, Go to your room
now.

Narrator 2: Araw araw ay ganun na lamang ang kaniyang ina kung magtanong sa kaniya about sa kaniyang
school…

Acely: hayy, nakakapagod, bat ganun na lang palagi, Tao lang din naman ako, nagkakamali rin, but why do I
always need to be perfect in her sight? (naka pambahay)
(music play) 1:30-1:58
(narrator 2)
Improve all of your strong points
And hide things that you lack
Cause mom's convinced if you're perfect
Your father will might come back
You're not yourself
You're not what she wants
You're someone in-between
Your whole life's a lie when you're Alyssa Greene

Acely: I need to be perfect, because I need to.

Narrator 2: When you have to perfect and meet your mother’s expectations because you want your father to
come back.. That’s the situation that Acely is experiencing right now, convincing herself on something because
she have to…
Narrator 1: Sabado ng umaga at kagigising lamang ni Acely, napaaga ang kaniyang gising dahil akala niya’y
may pasok siya, kung kaya’t ang ginawa niya na lamang ay nag exercise and nag meditate for her to fight her
stress that she faced for the whole week, since it was thought by their personal development teacher that in
order to cope your stress, you have to get into relaxation activities, meditating and listening to music

Acely is meditating(yoga) while listening to music (naka pajama)

(SUNDAY MORNING 9:00 A.M- itataas ng isang member)

Narrator 1: It is Sunday morning when Acely’s friends have a hangout and invited her to go with them

(Leonora is knocking at Acely’s house)

Leonora: Tao po (pajama)
(mother opens the door)
Mother: Yes dear? (duster/pambahay)
Leonora: hello po tita, I’m going to invite po sana si Acely sa bahay po namin for group study po, if papayagan
niyo po siya?
Mother: hmm, group study, sige sige, pasok ka na lang and go to her room…

Narrator: pinayagan ng kanyang nanay si acely dahil sinabi ng kanyang kaibigan na ang kanilang gagawin ay
group study

Acely: Alis na po kami ma (pambahay/pajama)

Mother: take care darlings

Narrator 1: Papunta na sila Acely at Leonora sa kanilang bahay ng mapansin ni Leonora na nangangayayat si
Acely:

(Naglalakad lakad sila)

Leonora: girl,when did you last eat?

Acely: kanina lang, bakit?

Leonora: girl, look at yourself, pumapayat ka oh

Acely: ohh really, it’s fine mababawi ko rin naman

Leonora: it’s fine ka diyan, no it’s not, hindi ka nanaman kumakain sa tamang oras

Narrator: hindi na nakasagot si Acely dahil balisa ito at nalutang na ang kaniyang isipan.

Leonora: Girl, okay ka lang ba? Bat parang wala ka na naman sa sarili mo? Palagi ka na lang ganiyan ha.

Leonora: si papa…

Narrator: Leonora is the childhood friend of Acely, matagal niya ng alam na academic validation is very
important sa mga parents ni Acely, alam niya rin na iniwan sila ng kanyang papa, and her mother always think
that, if Acely got ace at her school, maybe, baka bumalik and kayang papa

Leonora: Girl, nag away ba kayo ni tita? o may nasabi na naman siya?

Narrator: Bago pa man sagutin ni Acely and tanong ni Leonora ay nakarating na sila sa bahay ni Leonora.
Andoon na rin ang iba pang mga kaibigan nila at hinihintay na lang sila

Acely: mamaya.
Leonora: alright, aantayin ko yan

Narrator: Sa totoo lamang, ang dahilan talaga ng kanilang pagsasama sama nila ngayon ay upang makapag
relax sila at makapag pahinga rin mula sa kay daming ginawang activity sa school.

Zyron: Guys nandito na sila… (nakapambahay)

Camero: Methuselah and Kaye, tara na dito (nakapambahay)

Methuselah: eto na nga (nakapambahay)

Narrator 1: Nang maka upo na sila at makapag ready na ay inumpisahan na nga nila ang kantahan na
pinangunahan ni Zyron

Zyron: Kahit na ano pa'ng mangyayari, 'di maaring ipagpalit

Sasamahan pa kita hanggang sa huli

Camero: yun ohhh

Narrator 1: nagtatawanan sila, nagkakantahan at nagkaroon ng munting bonding bilang magkaibigan, habang sila’y
nag tatawanan bigla na lamang nagsalita si Acely

Acely: Maganda rin pala na nagkakaroo n tayo ng bonding gaya neto, pero walang mas gaganda sa boses ni Zyron

Methuselah: siya pa ba, nasa ayos yan ngayon eh

Leonora: wait waittt, since nakapag bonding na tayo, may naisip ako, why not mag open forum tayo dito, mag open
lang tayo sa isa’t isa and mag motivate, kase pansin ko lang ha, parang masyado na tayo naapektuhan ng stress
natin, tingnan niyo naman si Ace oh, nangangayayat na and pati ikaw kaye, ano bang nangyayare?

(nagkaroon ng munting katahimikan)

Acely: Hindi ko alam if ano yung result nito kapag nag open ako sainyo, pero susubukan ko, ganito kase, my
mother always validates academic, kapag raw hindi ako naging perfect and hindi ko na ace ang school year na’to,
hindi raw babalik si papa, so in order for me, syempre sino ba namang hindi mag gugusto ng complete family, eh
lagi ko ngang inaasam na magkaroon ng complete family, kung ang way para bumalik yung complete family namin
is yung pag ace ko sa school, then gagawin ko lahat,

Cali: alam mo acely, gaya nga sinabi ni zyron, sasamahan ka namin hanggang sa huli, hanggang ma’achieve mo
yung gusto mo and gusto rin ni tita

Methuselah: alam ninyo ha, lahat tayo dito nakaka experience ng problem na nag c’cause ng stress natin, why not
iapply natin yung mga discussion about coping with stress sa pang araw araw natin, kase diba sabi nga nila, hindi
mo malalaman kung hindi mo susubukan, so hindi natin malalamn kung effective ba yon o kung hindi, diba sabi don
Conduct Creative imagery of the problem para mangyari iyan, we need to change the way we think, simple lang
naman diba, sobrang simple, baguhin natin ung pag iisip natin

Acely: actually inumpisahan ko na iyan eh, I am into Relaxation activities, yung pakikinig ng mga kanta ganon, tas
meditation na rin.

Leonora: so ayun nga, kaya ako nagpa gathering dito kase sa discussion natin meron don yung seeking group or
social suuport, kase sa totoo lang rin syempre may problema rin ako, kaya itong gathering is for all of us, kase sabi
don, talk to people who can offer or give you understanding and empathy, itong ginagawa natin ngayon, eto na yun
it helps us already to cope with our stress
Cali: ako may naalala ako sabi don, et para sa’tin rin to, we need to eat properly and select nutritious food, kase for
me ha, kapag walang laman yung tiyan mo halos walang laman ang utak mo, halos hindi nag p’process ng tama,
that causes us na wala sa ayos

Camero: syempre meron rin ako may naalala ako kahit hindi sinend ni Ace yung notes niya, sabi don Learn to
manage your time, by what, syempre knowing your priorities

Kaye: sus, knowing your priorities raw pero puro bebe time ha eme

Camero: syempre bebe time after ng school works

Kaye: yunn, yan talaga ang tama, well may nakalimutan kayong isa sa coping with stress, yung sa part na syempre,
kailangan niyo rin ng time para sa sarili niyo to create a situation where you can feel relaxed, yan kase madalas
kong ginagawa eh delulu moments ba

Zyron: tama, kaya tama na yan and magkantahan na lang tayo.

Gumaganda ang paligid
Kung bawat tao ay puno ng pag-ibig
Napapawi ang pighati
Masilayan lang ang iyong ngiti
O kay gandang isipin
Ang isang mundong puno ng pag-ibig
