THE NECKLACE
AUTHOR:
Guy de Maupassant
CHARACTERS;
 Mathilde Loisel. A beautiful woman who yearns for a life of luxery and wealth
 Monsieur Loisel. Mathilde's devoted husband who is content with his humble lifestyle
 Madame Forestier. Mathilde's wealthy friend
 George Ramponneau and Madame George Ramponneau.
SUMMARY: The Necklace several hundred years ago. Mathilde Loisel lives in a flat with her
husband, who works as a clerk for the Minister of Education. Their lives are not luxurious,
but they are not poor, merely simple. Mathilde, however, longs to be rich. She envies her
friend Jeanne who has a large house and lots of jewelry. One day her husband brings home
an invitation to a ball. He thinks his wife will be excited to attend such a fancy party, but
instead she is upset. She complains that she has nothing suitable to wear to such an
extravagant occasion. Her kind husband agrees to give her the four hundred francs that he
had been saving to buy a new rifle to get herself a gown. The week of the party, Mathilde
seems anxious again. When her husband asks her why, she frets that she has no jewelry to
wear with her dress. He suggests that perhaps she could borrow something from her friend
Jeanne Forestier. Mathilde goes to Jeanne's house and picks out a sparkling diamond
necklace to borrow. She and her husband attend the gala and have a fabulous time. She
loves amazing and dances all night. Finally, they head home in the wee hours of the
morning. When they arrive home, Mathilde realizes that the necklace is missing. They
wonder if it fell off in the carriage that they took home, but neither of them noticed the
number. Her husband goes out to search the streets but returns empty handed. To stall for
time, Mathilde writes to her friend that she broke the clasp and is having it repaired. In the
meantime, they find another necklace that matches the missing one, but it costs thirty-six
thousand francs. Her husband fortunately inherited eighteen thousand francs from his
father, but they will need to borrow the rest of the money. Finally, they have enough to
purchase the replacement necklace and Mathilde gives it to Jeanne who doesn't even look at
it.
PLOT: The Necklace is a short story by Guy de Maupassant in which the main character
Madame Mathilde Loisel aspires to be a member of high society however lives apoor existence.
She replaces the necklace without telling her friend she has lost it, however this places her in
great debt.
THEME: One of the central themes of "The Necklace" is that of appearance vs. reality. For Mathilde, the
necklace symbolizes wealth, beauty, and, ultimately, shame, as she loses the necklace and goes into
debt to replace it. The great irony of the story is that the necklace was a fake. Mathilde spends ten years
in debt, effectively ruining her life over nothing.
SA’YO
Minsan oo minsan hindi
minsan tama minsan mali
umaabante umaatras
kilos mong namimintas
Kung tunay nga
ang pag-ibig mo
kaya mo bang isigaw
iparating sa mundo
Tumingin sa'king mata
magtapat ng nadarama
di gusto ika'y mawala
dahil handa akong ibigin ka
kung maging tayo
sa'yo lang ang puso ko
Walang ibang tatanggapin
ikaw at ikaw parin
may gulo ba sa'yong isipan
di tugma sa nararamdaman
Kung tunay nga ang pag-ibig mo
Tumingin sa'king mata
magtapat ng nadarama
di gusto ika'y mawala
dahil handa akong ibigin ka
kung maging tayo
Kailangan ba kitang iwasan
sa t'wing lalapit may paalam
ibang anyo sa karamihan
iba rin pag tayo
iba rin pag tayo lang
aaaahhh
Tumingin sa'king mata
magtapat ng nadarama
di gusto ika'y mawala
dahil handa akong ibigin ka
kung maging tayo
kung maging tayo
kung maging tayo
sa'yo na ang puso ko

I learn that life is not what we expected to be and do what you want to do in
your life you cannot bring back the past environment. But we can change them to a new or
better environment and we need to learn more on our environment and start to believe on
yourself and be more creative, kind, smart, fast action, brave. We need to develop our new
skills and we are the key to change our environment and I learn if I study hard there is a
possible that I can help our environment. As a student this is the key to help our environment.
I do feel excited like it’s the best thing ever. Because as a student I learn so
much on our interview and I feel so happy and shy to and it was new experiences for me to
interview a person like him while we are talking to she we feel the message that she saying to
us and also I ask her how much she miss the old environment.
Interviewing she is like blessed because she giving us fresh idea and new
knowledge and new experience for me. I am willing to learn more and to take some action on
our environment and I will volunteer to help my community to understand the issues of our
environment to tell them what they can do to help the environment and we need to move as
one to protect and our environment.
I should change the way I travel to various places. For example, I should start
using a bike or travel to school by feet, because cars are powered by fuel and other gases which
pollute the environment. I could also use public transport because it’s not as bad as a car.I
should save energy by turning off unnecessary things like lamps in empty rooms, heating
systems and TV’s which are not watched by anyone. Energy is a very lethal product in my life,
and i should be saving it up, because we usually use more of it than we can produce.

Kung 'Di Rin Lang Ikaw
December Avenue
Kung hindi rin lang ikaw ang dahilan
Pipilitin ba ang puso kong hindi na masaktan?
Kung hindi ikaw ay hindi nalang
Pipilitin pang umasa para sa'ting dalawa
Giniginaw at hindi makagalaw
Nahihirapan ang pusong pinipilit ay ikaw
Kung 'di rin tayo sa huli
Aawatin ang sarili na umibig pang muli
Kung 'di rin tayo sa huli
Aawatin ba ang puso kong ibigin ka?
Kung hindi rin lang ikaw ang dahilan
Pipiliin bang umiwas ng hindi na masaktan
Kung hindi ikaw ay sino pa ba
Ang luluha sa umaga para sa'ting dalawa
Bumibitaw dahil di makagalaw
Pinipigilan ba ang puso mong ibang sinisigaw?
Kung 'di rin tayo sa huli
Aawatin ang sarili na umibig pang muli
Kung 'di rin tayo sa huli
Aawatin ba ang puso kong ibigin ka?
Naliligaw at malayo ang tanaw
Pinipigilan na ang pusong pinipilit na ikaw
Kung 'di rin tayo sa huli
Aawatin ang sarili na makita kang muli
Kung 'di rin tayo sa huli
Aawatin ba ang puso kong ibigin ka
(Haaaa)
Kung 'di rin tayo sa huli
Aawatin ba ang puso kong ibigin ka
Kung 'di rin tayo sa huli
Aawatin ba ang puso kong ibigin ka
