What is a cell? Well the cell is the basic unit of function which are plants and animals made up. They are also the the smallest metabolically functional unit of life.
Like our human body that has organs, cells have also what we call set of "little organs," called, organelles . They are specialized for carrying out one or more vital functions. There are seventeen different kind of organelles. They are the nucleus, chromosome,nuceoli,microvilli,microfilament,microtubules,digestive vacouoles,rididual body,cilia,mitochonria,pinocytosis,pores,ribosomes,endo plasmic reticulum,chloroplasts, cell membrane and the cell wall. Each of them has also functions.
Here they are:
The nucleus is the cell's hereditary bearing core function within a thin memebrane called the nuclear envelope. The centrosome produces the microtubules of a cell - a key component of the cytoskeleton. It directs the transport through the ER and the Golgi apparatus. The nuceoli makes some important componenets of the ribosomes. While the microvilli promotes increaed absorption. The microfilaments give the cell some muscle and microtubules helps maintain the cell's shape and have role in its motion. The digestive vacoules and the residual body are some of the scavenger organelles, lysosomes. Not only consume foreign matter and dead parts of the cell but, in one normal growth process, eventually recycle the worn -out cell itself. The cilia acts as th liquid medium or means of locomotion of the cell. The motochondria play a critical role in generating energy in the eukaryotic cell, organelles that are modified chloroplasts; they are broadly called plastids, and are often involved in storage. Pinocytosis are the porters of the cell puts the material from the surface to the interior. The pores allow sustances to passto and from the cell's nucleus. While the ribosome (the protein production machine) is a large complex composed of many molecules, in prokaryotes only exist floating freely in the cytosol, whereas in eukaryotes they can be either free or bound to membranes. The endo plasmic reticulum (ER) is the transport network for molecules targeted for certain modifications and specific destinations, as compared to molecules that will float freely in the cytoplasm. While the chloroplasts carries out photosynthesis which provides the cell with food and our atmosphere with oxygen. The cell wall ia a layer surrounding a cell, located external to the cell membrane, that provides the cell with structural support, protection, and a filtering mechanism. Lastly the cell membrane surrounds the cytoplasm of a cell and physically separates the intracellular components from the extracellular environment, there by serving a mechanical function similar to that of skin.

About myselF
I would like to say hi and thank you for all the people who read and visited my blog!
By the way I am Ma. Donna Mae J. Limoran. My classmates and friends call me Donna or Donz but family members or my relatives most of them are my cousins call me Ami or Donna Mae. My parents are Mrs. Imelda J. Limoran and Mr. Donato E. Limoran. My mother worked as a secretary in a clinic at Chong Hua Medical Arts. While my father stays sometimes at home or finds some extra jobs. I am the only child. Some people said that I am so lucky that I am the only child. They said that I can have what ever I want. But that's not all true. I only ask for the things that I need and they would give that to me. Sometimes being the only one child is sad but most of the time I am happy.
On my pre- school years, I studied at Our Lady of Sacred Heart school training center. I really had a lot fun in their where in we sing, dance and play but most of the time we were taught by lessons. When I graduated in kinder two, I graduated as the first honor. In my elementary years I studied at Lahug Elementary School. There were also a lot of my most memorable memories in my Alma matter. I also graduated as the third honor in our class. Now, I am studying in the University of the Philippines. I am now a second year student in section two Benton.
I had also some hobbies like reading books, playing scrabble, drawing and dancing. I love to read thrillers and horror books. One example of these books is goosebumps because this increases my imagination that I use in drawing. I also really love playing scrabble. Scrabble increases my vocabulary. Actually during my elementary years I am one of the players in our scrabble team. We also won all the contests that we have joined. We were always the champion! I also really love to draw. I just love doing this because in here I can express my feelings and all the things that get in my creative mind. Lastly, I really love dancing because this is one of the form of exercise.
There are also many things tat I love and like. I like the color pink because it is so girly. I also love the colors black and white because they are neutrals and I can Match the other colors that I want. I also love collecting stationery's and stickers. I started collecting them was still in grade four until now. I also love cats. I love cats because they are so cute and I like them purr. In house house I am also keeping cats. I also like dogs. I like them because they are so playful.I also have a dog in our house.
These were the things that I want to share to everyone so that all of you would know me better.

TuLo-TulO sa MarSO.....
Well "Tulo-tulo sa Marso" is entitled for three Cebuano dramas by U.P. (University of the Philippines), STC (St. Theresa's Collage) and USC (University of San Carlos). This also a contest by the Central Visayas Studies Center of U.P. Cebu College. The fortunate finalists where the only ones to have the chance to act out their scripts. Fourtunately, University of the Philippines was one of the finalists in the play with USC and STC. This contest has a purpose of bringing back or supporting our Cebuano language. So that people could also appreciate the Cebuano dramas than the English one.
The three dramas were all magnificent. The script was well done. All of the actors and actresses act well and portrayed their role well. Some of the actors and actresses played some funny and serious roles. Some also played as villians.
One play is entitled as "Sulog sa Gugma". This was played by the University of th Philippines. Their director and script writer was Ermine Aledo. Their assistant director and consultant was Prof. Ligaya Rabago Visaya, my recent Filipino teacher.
"Sulog sa Gugma" was about two men finding a girl that would love them. The fist guy was Sul-og. This role was played by Joel Conde Berou. Sul-og was the good simple guy with a simple heart where in he believes in true love. He believes that love will conquer all. The other guy was named Kab-o. This role was played by Christian Rodel Son.Kab-o was the bad guy. He don't believe in love. He just wanted to offer the girl with modern things.But the two guys fell into the same girl.The girl was Cecilia. This role was played by Ma. Sheila Armie Garde. Cecilia is a simple province girl outside but inside she really wants to marry a guy that would bring her to the city. But as she encoutered Sul-og she had fell inlove with the guy even if she don't show this to him. But when Kab-o came she was a bit confused about the two. But when she realized that she loved Sul-og...and Kab-o was the bad guy , she did not waste her time and went to Sul-og. But Kab-o also did not waste his time and ask Sul-og for a fight. But the good guy succeeded.. Cecilia and Kab-o lived happily.
The second play was titled, "Sista". This was played by the St. Theresa's College. This was about a girl named Teresa. This role was played by Roriza Reyes. Teresa is a girl with a big dream. She dreamed about becoming one of the famous singers when she grow up like her idol Pilita Tralala. This role was played by Therese Amodia. So that she could pursue her dreams her mother gave her a guitar (sista) so that it would help her. When she grew up. She succeeded in becoming a famous singer. But she forgot all the people she love in the past. She became very proud of her self. She also also did not want her mother to go near her.But at the end she realizes that she was wrong.
The last play was titled as "TUBA ra'y Makatimbang". This was directed by Haidee Palapar. This play was about all the people in the province killed by the politicians.
Over all these three Cebuano dramas where great!

"A Summary of Max Schulman's "Love Is a Fallacy""
The story started when the narrator introduced hi self. He is cool,logical. Keen, calculating, perspicacious, acute, and astute in short he is intelligent.
The story started when he went to back to his room, he saw in his roommate named Petey diagnosed with appendicitis. The narrator wanted to approch him......... but Petey said he only needs a raccoon coat. The narrator was a bit of confused why he wanted that stuff. But Petey told him that that coat was the one worn by the big men in their campus now but he does not have money to buy for one .
He discouraged Petey about that coat because it is unsanitary. But when he heard about what Petey is going to give evrything just exchanged for the coat, he had a brilliant idea and he ask about the girl named Polly. If Petey and her were already on steady. He thougfht for a while and then he realized that his father has one of those coats. So he told Petey that he will be going home for the weekend and told him that hi willbring back a surprise and he will make sure that Petey would love it.
On the following day, the narrator broughht the coat with him and gave it to Petey. Petey was overjoyed when he saw the coat. When he asked what would would he want exchnge for the coat, the narrator replied,"your girl". The narrator wanted to date Petey's girl,polly. He love the way Polly carries herself, her manners, and her beauty even though she is a bit dumb. At first Petey wsa having secondthoughts about what his roommate said. But the end he accepted the deal. The raccoon coat exchangefor his girl, Polly.
on the first night of their date he was a bit ofboredabout the girl. But he thought that he would teach and do everything for Polly. On the second to the fourth night, he taught her about fallacies.
but when the fifth night came, the narrator changed the topic nad turned romantic. He told Polly that he loved her so much that she means all the world to him. But Polly answered her about the policies that she had learned.The narrator was a bit of disappointed about that andasked directly if she would go steady with him. and then Polly told him that she had promised Petey that afternoon that they would go steady. The narrator became angry and asked her that what's with Petey that he did not have? Polly simply answered,"a raccoon coat".

What a U.P. StudEnt is NOT..
All of us students in U.P. are also the same as other normal students on other schools. But I know that they look forward to us as more superior than them. They would always think and say that if you are in U.P, you are very intelligent. I think I am not that intelligent. There are also a lot of students who are also intelligent but studies on another school. If someone would ask me what school I am from and when I answers U.P., they would always say that I am very intelligent. I think I am not that intelligent. I don't believe tat there are people who are not intelligent in this world. You just need to be very dedicated to your studies to achieve your dreams.
Some people outside our campus define University if the Philippines' students as nerds. Well....we are absolutely not nerds! We are just dedicated to our studies as I have said earlier. We do this so that we could help our country when we will graduate in collage. It is not useful if they call us "ISKOLARS NG BAYAN" if we are not dedicating ourselves to the people. We would only waste all the taxes paid by all the people of the Philippines.We are also just like the students on the other schools (exactly not all schools) that we want also to have fun always but regarding in our studies we are very serious. We are also just like them who wears clothes that are hip today.
Some also said that we, Upians are very proud of our selves. I think that being one of the Upians is one thing that you can be proud of. If you love and like your school you would also be very proud of it. We are not that kind of persons that always boast all of our works and achievements. I think most of us are still humble. We don't do things like teasing other schools and discriminating them. I think we are not that kind of persons who look ourselves as very superior among the rest of the students on the other schools.
Here are also some thing that University of the Philippines' students are really are ....
In our room , in the second year Benton we have this kind of syndrome... the last minute syndrome where in we work this on the date that it is needed. Sometimes we always say," Ay! unya na lang ..Ugma pa bitaw ang deadline.." in our dialect. But when tomorrow comes that time we would work. Some of us looks like bees, going here and there. Some are reading, answering assignments and making some projects we are all busy then!
Another thing that most of us are lazy in terms of cleaning our classroom. When there are no classroom checking or no visitors would come, we would not clean our classroom. That's why we our teachers always scold us.
Now, these were all the things what a U.P. student is not.

Reaction to Max Schulman's
LOVE IS A FALLACY
At first I was really interested as I read the title "Love is a Fallacy", I really thought that this story contains a serious topic about love and relationship. I also thought that this story somehow is the same as the stories of love that I have read on books, magazines, newspapers or stories of love that I saw on the television where in lovers are taken apart by their parents, the girl or the guy risked his life for her or his love or a tragedy happened where in the guy or the girl dies. But this story is not the same as the others. I think this story is weird and also unique!It is my first time to read this kind of story.
As I read the story at first it was a bit of serious and then when I finished reading....the story was funny! I really love the way the writer ended the story where in the girl, named Polly chooses the guy, named Petey instead of the narrator who's very cool, logical, keen, calculating, perspicacious, acute, and astute just because of a raccoon coat? If I where in the girl's situation I would really choose the guy who is intelligent than the other one who is dumb. But it was her decision I guess somehow the girl is right in choosing between the two guys. She chose Petey instead of the narrator.
I really don't like the narrator's traits! The thing I have love about him was only his intelligence. But in that situation he is very stupid! I think because he very "logical" he does not know what love really is. He only wants Polly just because of her beauty, manners and the way the girl carries herself not because he loved the girl. Was that love? That was really not!
Another thing I don't want about the narrator is ....he is very proud of his self, about his intelligence. I think you must be humble if you gifted with that. The other thing was he used his intelligence in evil ways. He know that Petey would do everything for the raccoon coat and dumb as well, so he had a plan just get a raccon coat and have to the girl steady with him. Isn't that rude? He tricks his own roommate? I think it is.
In the case for Petey, I know that he would do everything for the raccoon coat because he really want things which are also used by the Big men in their campus. But it is wrong to exchange your girl for a coat!(grr!) But at the end I was happy about Petey where he ask Polly to be steady with him eventhough he had a deal with the narrator. The deal to help the narrator steady with Polly.I think Petey has love to offer and more deseving for Polly.
In the end I did not expect that Polly would choose Petey than the narrator. It was the narrators fault why he did not got Polly. If he did not taght Polly all those things he would be with Polly.
