**Interview with Sheena and Jelyn**
1. What is your name
Sheena Mae Soriano
2. Can you tell me a little bit about yourself—where you’re from and what daily life is like there?
My family and close friends call me Sheen but I use Sheena for work cause I think it's just easier. I'm Filipino currently living in Quezon City, Philippines but I was born in Capiz, Philippines which is one of the provinces here that is known for it's seafood and beaches! Aside from English and Tagalog, I can also speak Hiligaynon which is another language spoken in some parts of the Philippines. I'm also interested in learning some foreign languages like Spanish and Thai. I live with my partner of 12 years and we have 2 dogs. I have different hobbies like watching movies/series, playing boardgames, doing puzzles and we love going to the mall and do Karaoke on the weekends! Daily life here specifically in my area for some people would be a very busy because we are mainly in the metropolitan or center of businesses in the country. Elementary and High school starts 6am and ends 7pm because of shifting schedules due to over population. 1st shift is from 6am to 12pm and next would be 1-7pm. A lot of businesses here also operates at night especially for BPO or Business Process Outsourcing. I used to work at one of these for 7 years so I'm used to my shift. Waking up in the afternoon and sleeping in the morning has become a norm to me.
3. How would you describe your community or the place you live?
The community here is generally closer with each other because houses and buildings are next to each other and sometimes, people here just live with their relatives in the same compound or the same houses. We also have a local government which is called 'barangay', it's smallest unit of Government in the Philippines that functions as governing policies, programs and project in the community, delivering basic services and maintaining peace and order.
4. What is your role at Gardenia Cove?
My current role in Gardenia Cove is a Virtual Associate who mainly handles Medical Records. Ensuring that patient's medical records and records request from other entities are handled and delivered correctly while adhering to the office policy and HIPAA guidelines as well as sending Referrals to other providers. I also work on Reception task like scheduling appointments, answering phone calls regarding patient's inquiries, such as their copays, appointment dates, records, assisting with payment and etc.

My name is Jelyn Reli.
I'm a Filipino, living in Quezon city. Its been 8 months since I graduated in college where I took hospitality management at ICCT colleges. I'm currently working as a mini bar attendant at Dusit Thani Manila, a 5 star hotel in Makati City, Metro Manila. My favorite hobby is cooking foods for my loved ones and friends and my specialty are Filipino cuisine but I also like trying other recipe. If I have a chance, I would like to study culinary and become a professional chef. I also love hanging out with my nieces and nephews and we like going to the park and playing in the arcade. I also like going to different places with my bike just enjoying the view and sceneries and going to different cafe and restaurants to try different foods. Aside from Filipino food, I also love Japanese and Arabic foods.
My daily life here is waking up sometime between 9 and 10 AM every day as my shift starts at 2pm and I have to travel for almost 2 hours to my workplace. On Saturday and Sunday mornings, the houses across the street blasts American, Filipino and Korean pop music and people love to sing Karaoke here so It's always like loud for almost every household.
The community where I live I would say is not perfect. It's quite peaceful but there are times when it's a chaotic and there are people arguing and even fighting. I live in an area where houses are so close with each other that only a single wall divides the houses. Some people here also lacks education and are struggling financially but as Filipinos, they always wear a smile on there faces and works hard to provide for their Family's needs.

Sheen’s:
Personal & Cultural Background
What part of the Philippines do you live in, and what is daily life like there?
> I live in Quezon City which is part of Metro Manila Philippines located in the Island of Luzon. I would say that it is business centric, populated and it is a fast-phase living kind of culture compared to other places.
How would you describe Filipino culture to someone who has never visited the country?
> Filipino culture is being hospitable, friendly, and we always wear a smile on our faces despite challenges and calamities that we face.
Family, Community, & Values
What values are most emphasized in Filipino families and communities?
How do concepts like “pakikisama” (getting along) or “hiya” (modesty) influence everyday interactions?
> The values that are most notable from Filipinos are respecting the elders. We use "po and opo" which is a polite particle added after each sentence to show respect. We also do the "mano" gesture where we bow down and take the elder's right hand and gently pressing it to our forehead.
"Pakikisama" is also something you would often see from us Filipinos. We are taught from our childhood that respect and kindness is a key to being a good member of the society and this is being applied to avoid "hiya" because what you do and how you act reflects with your family's core values.
Traditions, Customs & Lifestyle
What Filipino traditions or celebrations mean the most to you personally?
How would you describe the pace and lifestyle of Filipino culture?
> I personally have not celebrated a lot of Filipino traditions but Filipinos are big on Christmas and we even have the longest Christmas celebration. It starts in September and ends in January with a lot of gatherings, party, decorations and even contests.
Work & Cross-Cultural Interaction (especially relevant for the friend who works with you virtually)
What has your experience been like working virtually with people from the U.S.?
> Working virtually with people from the US is challenging because of it's remote set up and somewhat due to the language because we do not speak/write in our mother tongue, but overall, It has been a beautiful journey interacting with the people from across the world because even though we do not share the same culture, we share the same ideas and goals through work collaboration.
Have you noticed differences between Filipino work culture and American work culture?
What do you appreciate or find challenging about collaborating across cultures and time zones?
> I feel like there is not a lot of differences between the work culture but I noticed that American work cultures are more direct and straightforward compare to Filipino work cultures. In regards with challenges, time zone plays a big factor because there is a 15-hour difference and we must work in a graveyard shift. Although I am already used to it, a lot of Filipinos do not prefer this kind of set up.
Language & Communication
Do you feel communication styles differ between Filipino and American people? In what ways?
> As I mentioned earlier, I think Americans are more straightforward and direct and uses clear and concise words whereas Filipino communication style tends to lean on non-verbal cues like tones and gesture that are taken into consideration to show politeness and respect.
Social Issues & Modern Life
How is the Philippines changing socially or culturally for younger generations?
What are some challenges people in your region face that outsiders might not understand?
>I think Filipinos are getting more aware and open minded when it comes to a lot of topic and internet plays a big role in this. The new generations are consuming social media that does not only focus on Filipino culture but also other culture from around the world which has pros and cons.
Identity & Representation
Do you feel Philippine culture is accurately represented in international media?
> It is somewhat accurate like Philippines has a lot of beautiful beaches and Islands. Filipinos are hospitable, loves to sing, likes eating or serving lumpia and we also like taking pride of every other Filipinos achievement in the international scene but other than that I believe that there is more to us that is not conveyed in the international media.
Reflection & Advice
What do you wish more people from other cultures knew about the Philippines or Filipino people?
If someone wanted to understand Filipino culture better, what experiences would you recommend
> I wish more people from other culture learns more about our cultural tradition including our numerous indigenous tribes that can be found from different parts of the country. Philippines is very diverse and is home to a lot of ethnic groups who has different language spoken, tradition and even clothing. I personally want to learn more about them myself and to experience their daily lives and If I could recommend to someone who wants to learn more about the Philippines, they need to visit the Country and experience it first-hand.

Jelyn’s:
Personal & Cultural Background
What part of the Philippines do you live in, and what is daily life like there?
How would you describe Filipino culture to someone who has never visited the country?
> I am in Metro manila. The center District of the country where the capital of the Philippines is located. some of the residence here came from the provinces to find a better opportunity which is lacking in their area.
> Filipino culture values family ties, religious beliefs and following different kinds of traditions.
Family, Community, & Values
What values are most emphasized in Filipino families and communities?
How do concepts like “pakikisama” (getting along) or “hiya” (modesty) influence everyday interactions?
> Families usually stay together even if the kids turn 18 and parents usually let them stay even if they already have their own families. In the community, pakikisama or getting along is a normal thing because we are taught by our parents to show respect and politeness to others especially the elders.
Traditions, Customs & Lifestyle
What Filipino traditions or celebrations mean the most to you personally?
How would you describe the pace and lifestyle of Filipino culture?
> Personally, I like fiesta's which is celebrated in every province once a year. It is rooted in religious traditions and usually showcases parades, music, feasting and masses.
Language & Communication
Do you feel communication styles differ between Filipino and American people? In what ways?
> Aside from the language, it differs through how we communicate. As what I observe in American shows, Americans are direct to the point while Filipinos like to beat around the bush.
Social Issues & Modern Life
How is the Philippines changing socially or culturally for younger generations?
What are some challenges people in your region face that outsiders might not understand?
> There is surely a big change because I noticed that younger generations now are more influenced by social media and what they see in the internet. Several traditions are being forgotten and neglected.
Identity & Representation
Do you feel Philippine culture is accurately represented in international media?
> I do not consume many international media but from what I have observed so far, Filipino culture is represented just fine but people should do more research to really understand our culture.
Reflection & Advice
What do you wish more people from other cultures knew about the Philippines or Filipino people?
If someone wanted to understand Filipino culture better, what experiences would you recommend
> I wish people knew that we are not only rich in natural resources but we are also rich in different culture and tradition and I wish people from other culture appreciate Filipino cuisine more. If someone wants to learn more, they should visit not just the popular tourist destination but also try to set foot on other Islands and try to live like a local to understand our culture better.

"Pakikisama" is also something you would often see from us Filipinos. We are taught from our childhood that respect and kindness is a key to being a good member of the society and this is being applied to avoid "hiya" because what you do and how you act reflects with your family's core values.
Traditions, Customs & Lifestyle
What Filipino traditions or celebrations mean the most to you personally?
How would you describe the pace and lifestyle of Filipino culture?
> I personally have not celebrated a lot of Filipino traditions but Filipinos are big on Christmas and we even have the longest Christmas celebration. It starts in September and ends in January with a lot of gatherings, party, decorations and even contests.
Work & Cross-Cultural Interaction (especially relevant for the friend who works with you virtually)
What has your experience been like working virtually with people from the U.S.?
> Working virtually with people from the US is challenging because of it's remote set up and somewhat due to the language because we do not speak/write in our mother tongue, but overall, It has been a beautiful journey interacting with the people from across the world because even though we do not share the same culture, we share the same ideas and goals through work collaboration.
Have you noticed differences between Filipino work culture and American work culture?
What do you appreciate or find challenging about collaborating across cultures and time zones?
> I feel like there is not a lot of differences between the work culture but I noticed that American work cultures are more direct and straightforward compare to Filipino work cultures. In regards with challenges, time zone plays a big factor because there is a 15-hour difference and we must work in a graveyard shift. Although I am already used to it, a lot of Filipinos do not prefer this kind of set up.
Language & Communication
Do you feel communication styles differ between Filipino and American people? In what ways?
> As I mentioned earlier, I think Americans are more straightforward and direct and uses clear and concise words whereas Filipino communication style tends to lean on non-verbal cues like tones and gesture that are taken into consideration to show politeness and respect.
Social Issues & Modern Life
How is the Philippines changing socially or culturally for younger generations?
What are some challenges people in your region face that outsiders might not understand?
>I think Filipinos are getting more aware and open minded when it comes to a lot of topic and internet plays a big role in this. The new generations are consuming social media that does not only focus on Filipino culture but also other culture from around the world which has pros and cons.
Identity & Representation
Do you feel Philippine culture is accurately represented in international media?
> It is somewhat accurate like Philippines has a lot of beautiful beaches and Islands. Filipinos are hospitable, loves to sing, likes eating or serving lumpia and we also like taking pride of every other Filipinos achievement in the international scene but other than that I believe that there is more to us that is not conveyed in the international media.
Reflection & Advice
What do you wish more people from other cultures knew about the Philippines or Filipino people?
If someone wanted to understand Filipino culture better, what experiences would you recommend
> I wish more people from other culture learns more about our cultural tradition including our numerous indigenous tribes that can be found from different parts of the country. Philippines is very diverse and is home to a lot of ethnic groups who has different language spoken, tradition and even clothing. I personally want to learn more about them myself and to experience their daily lives and If I could recommend to someone who wants to learn more about the Philippines, they need to visit the Country and experience it first-hand.

> I am in Metro manila. The center District of the country where the capital of the Philippines is located. some of the residence here came from the provinces to find a better opportunity which is lacking in their area.
> Filipino culture values family ties, religious beliefs and following different kinds of traditions.
Family, Community, & Values
What values are most emphasized in Filipino families and communities?
How do concepts like “pakikisama” (getting along) or “hiya” (modesty) influence everyday interactions?
> Families usually stay together even if the kids turn 18 and parents usually let them stay even if they already have their own families. In the community, pakikisama or getting along is a normal thing because we are taught by our parents to show respect and politeness to others especially the elders.
Traditions, Customs & Lifestyle
What Filipino traditions or celebrations mean the most to you personally?
How would you describe the pace and lifestyle of Filipino culture?

What are some challenges people in your region face that outsiders might not understand?
> There is surely a big change because I noticed that younger generations now are more influenced by social media and what they see in the internet. Several traditions are being forgotten and neglected.
Identity & Representation
Do you feel Philippine culture is accurately represented in international media?
> I do not consume many international media but from what I have observed so far, Filipino culture is represented just fine but people should do more research to really understand our culture.
Reflection & Advice
What do you wish more people from other cultures knew about the Philippines or Filipino people?
If someone wanted to understand Filipino culture better, what experiences would you recommend
> I wish people knew that we are not only rich in natural resources but we are also rich in different culture and tradition and I wish people from other culture appreciate Filipino cuisine more. If someone wants to learn more, they should visit not just the popular tourist destination but also try to set foot on other Islands and try to live like a local to understand our culture better.

**Interview with Sheena and Jelyn**
1. What is your name
Sheena Mae Soriano
2. Can you tell me a little bit about yourself—where you’re from and what daily life is like there?
My family and close friends call me Sheen but I use Sheena for work cause I think it's just easier. I'm Filipino currently living in Quezon City, Philippines but I was born in Capiz, Philippines which is one of the provinces here that is known for it's seafood and beaches! Aside from English and Tagalog, I can also speak Hiligaynon which is another language spoken in some parts of the Philippines. I'm also interested in learning some foreign languages like Spanish and Thai. I live with my partner of 12 years and we have 2 dogs. I have different hobbies like watching movies/series, playing boardgames, doing puzzles and we love going to the mall and do Karaoke on the weekends! Daily life here specifically in my area for some people would be a very busy because we are mainly in the metropolitan or center of businesses in the country. Elementary and High school starts 6am and ends 7pm because of shifting schedules due to over population. 1st shift is from 6am to 12pm and next would be 1-7pm. A lot of businesses here also operates at night especially for BPO or Business Process Outsourcing. I used to work at one of these for 7 years so I'm used to my shift. Waking up in the afternoon and sleeping in the morning has become a norm to me.
3. How would you describe your community or the place you live?
The community here is generally closer with each other because houses and buildings are next to each other and sometimes, people here just live with their relatives in the same compound or the same houses. We also have a local government which is called 'barangay', it's smallest unit of Government in the Philippines that functions as governing policies, programs and project in the community, delivering basic services and maintaining peace and order.
4. What is your role at Gardenia Cove?
My current role in Gardenia Cove is a Virtual Associate who mainly handles Medical Records. Ensuring that patient's medical records and records request from other entities are handled and delivered correctly while adhering to the office policy and HIPAA guidelines as well as sending Referrals to other providers. I also work on Reception task like scheduling appointments, answering phone calls regarding patient's inquiries, such as their copays, appointment dates, records, assisting with payment and etc.
————————————————————————————
My name is Jelyn Reli.
I'm a Filipino, living in Quezon city. Its been 8 months since I graduated in college where I took hospitality management at ICCT colleges. I'm currently working as a mini bar attendant at Dusit Thani Manila, a 5 star hotel in Makati City, Metro Manila. My favorite hobby is cooking foods for my loved ones and friends and my specialty are Filipino cuisine but I also like trying other recipe. If I have a chance, I would like to study culinary and become a professional chef. I also love hanging out with my nieces and nephews and we like going to the park and playing in the arcade. I also like going to different places with my bike just enjoying the view and sceneries and going to different cafe and restaurants to try different foods. Aside from Filipino food, I also love Japanese and Arabic foods.
My daily life here is waking up sometime between 9 and 10 AM every day as my shift starts at 2pm and I have to travel for almost 2 hours to my workplace. On Saturday and Sunday mornings, the houses across the street blasts American, Filipino and Korean pop music and people love to sing Karaoke here so It's always like loud for almost every household.
The community where I live I would say is not perfect. It's quite peaceful but there are times when it's a chaotic and there are people arguing and even fighting. I live in an area where houses are so close with each other that only a single wall divides the houses. Some people here also lacks education and are struggling financially but as Filipinos, they always wear a smile on there faces and works hard to provide for their Family's needs.

Sheen’s:
Personal & Cultural Background
What part of the Philippines do you live in, and what is daily life like there?
> I live in Quezon City which is part of Metro Manila Philippines located in the Island of Luzon. I would say that it is business centric, populated and it is a fast-phase living kind of culture compared to other places.

> Filipino culture is being hospitable, friendly, and we always wear a smile on our faces despite challenges and calamities that we face.
Family, Community, & Values
What values are most emphasized in Filipino families and communities?
How do concepts like “pakikisama” (getting along) or “hiya” (modesty) influence everyday interactions?

"I want to understand the world from your point of view. I want to know what you know in the way you know it. I want to understand the meaning of your experience, to walk in your shoes, to feel things as you feel them, to explain things as you explain them. Will you become my teacher and help me understand? "

In completing your Immersion Project, you observed an event or gathering of a particular culture, completed a dialogue with someone from that culture, and crafted an analysis and presentation of your insights and findings. In this Discussion, you will step back and reflect on the process itself and how it may help you understand other cultures in general in the future and develop cultural humility. **Post** a brief description of the culture in which you immersed yourself. Next, explain how the Immersion Project assisted you in understanding and respecting other cultures in general and helped you further develop cultural humility. Review your Course Announcements for possible information related to this week’s Discussions.
– Review the Learning Resources on cultural humility. Revisit the definition of cultural humility and strategies to develop cultural humility.
– Reflect on your immersion experience. Consider how the experience assisted you in understanding and respecting other cultures in general and helped you further develop cultural humility.

We have covered several areas of research that have prompted various levels of controversy, and for various reasons. You have read about the possible comorbidity of ADHD and bipolar disorders in children. You have also read about genetics research in psychological disorders. How might this knowledge impact your personal behavior or thinking about the disorders themselves or the people they affect? While these topics can certainly raise multiple ethical questions, consider each of them from a psychological information and literacy perspective. What information would you want to know as the parent of a child with ADHD or bipolar disorder? If you are the spouse or partner of someone with a psychological disorder, how might the knowledge of genetic contributions impact decisions to have children, or what might you want to be mindful of in the children you already have? Several research studies have been cited and summarized in this chapter. If you wanted to look beyond your text, what sources of information would be most useful to you in trying to learn more about a possible disorder or the contribution of genetics? Where would you find or obtain those sources? What would you look for in each? What are some characteristics of objective data, as opposed to personal reports?

Excessive sugar in diet remains a health concern due to its close association with chronic diseases, such as obesity, diabetes, liver disease and cardiovascular diseases. Due to its health risks, it calls for the question as to whether added sugars should be regulated in food supply or not. From my perspective, added sugars should be regulated in the food supply chain due to associated health risks. Some strategies to regulation include requiring all producers to clearly label the amount of added sugars in the packages of their products to allow consumers make informed choices. The other strategy is to limit the marketing of sweetened beverages, such as soda as best products for children. Manufacturers can also be incentivized to reformulate products with zero sugar or low sugar content to ensure a healthy population. Regulation of added sugars in food supply can ensure healthy conscious manufacturers that prioritize a healthy population.
The responsibility of cost of care to treat chronic disease due to complications associated from consuming much added sugar should be shared between the consumers and the food industry. The food industry bears the greatest burden in shaping consumer choices through marketing, pricing and availability of added sugar products. Consumers, on the other hand, have the responsibility to make healthy choices regarding what diet they consume. Hence, the food industry should bear the greatest burden of cost of care due to their great influence in the food environment through marketing practices used to sell added sugar products (Houghtaling et al., 2021). They can reduce this cost through supporting public health initiatives and nutrition education that champions the consumption of foods with low sugar content. When consumers are aware of the risks of consuming high amounts of added sugars, they can make informed choices, leading to increased preference and purchase for low sugar content foods.
While the consumption of added sugars may be harmful, it may be beneficial to specific populations or disease states. For example, carbohydrate-rich foods and sugar-sweetened beverages, such as energy drinks may be beneficial for athletes, as they engage in lengthy high-intensity exercises that require a lot of energy, preventing fatigue (Erdmann et al., 2021). When timed appropriately with activity, added sugars have been shown to support athletes’ performance and recovery. In clinical settings, hypoglycemic patients may require quick sources of glucose for energy to compensate for the low glucose levels in the body. Therefore, while added sugars may be harmful to the a significant proportion of the population, special considerations should be made in diet planning, especially for specific populations, such as athletes and specific disease states like in hypoglycemic patients. However, these considerations can only be made with the help of a nutritionist to ensure the individual or patient consumes the right amount of sugars without posing a health risk or severe complication of a disease state.

Hi class,
One of the best examples of how I’ve built genuine connections online is through social and professional groups focused on psychology and personal growth. I joined a few Facebook and LinkedIn communities where people share study tips, self-development goals, and mental health resources. Over time, I’ve built friendships and professional connections with people I never would have met offline. Many of these connections have become a strong source of encouragement, advice, and accountability.
These online relationships have helped me build social capital by exchanging knowledge, emotional support, and opportunities. For instance, I’ve learned about online certifications, volunteer programs, and even nonprofit collaborations through people in those networks. Being part of communities that share similar interests and values gives me a strong sense of belonging and purpose.
At the same time, I’ve learned that balance is essential. Constant connectivity can lead to burnout, comparison, or feeling overwhelmed by information. Research shows that while social media can enhance connection, excessive use often increases anxiety and loneliness (Twenge et al., 2023). I now make a conscious effort to stay connected in meaningful ways while still protecting my mental and emotional space.

_“Researchers examined the role online groups play in creating opportunities for people to build new kinds of meaningful communities they often could not form in real space.”_
Thoughts? Consider reflecting on these questions as you read the article:
– _Can online communities provide the same depth and authenticity as in-person relationships, or are there limitations?_
– _How do platform design and moderation influence whether online communities foster genuine connection or echo chambers?_
