REFLECTION

High School taught me that life is not a fairy tale where you always end up with a happy ending. You need to fight for your happy ending it seems. You can just sit down on your chair to get high grades. You must work hard for it because nothing is attaining without an act of doing. But in the likes of me I didn’t do it I lose control of my self-done stupid things I never should do, so I end up being me now a failure. It’s not always you’re at the top sometimes you must come down take note you’re the best someone will always be better than you no bodies perfect. I lesson that I’ve learn high school being smart is not to be brag about being smart is a responsibility not a pleasure. Now I’m full of regrets on myself not grabbing opportunities that life has offered me, but we must embrace what happened whether we like it or not we must accept failure of the past and plan for a great future. But don’t wait for the future to come. In fact act now make your future happen now.

Time flies so fast our days on high school is about to end. We hate to say goodbye to each other but we must move on with life to face the new horizon and challenges of life gives to us. Our memories in high school will be remembered together with its up and downs especially the lessons we have this high school that we will use to conquer the challenges of life.

MY DREAM

Seeing through around the earth, we will find all kinds of people exist in the world. I think why those people are different from each other might be a difficult task to study-----which factor influences and drives them different. It is lucky that I am the one among them so I know that mine is my dream.

I have been sitmulating by my dream, from the day I knew why I came into the world to so far and even in future, which making me different from others. It is a goal, an aim, a direction for my life. It is not strange from outside, but from inside. It is to be a philosopher.Perhaps no one believes that there has philosopher in such modern society. I have to tell you, however, today's civilization is based on people's labor, yes, and it is, but which is not only on the physical labor, the more important is on the mental labor----the thought. If there is no thought on the earth, what will happen? I can't imagine such a devastating scene and I think no one would be willing to fancy.What we inherit from our ancestors are wealth, knowledge and dream----our ancesotrs' dream. They devoted themselves to building our society, which was not for themselves but for the descendants. They had viewed it because their society existed some outstanding philosophers. That's why their society had been developed.

I am no scholar, no greatman and no saint. I am just a citizen as same as you. However, I have a dream and I believe both we have. Just like Marktin Luther King, Jr. He was no philosopher though he gave us a dream. A dream for our life. A dream for our goal. A dream for our hope. And my dream is give our descentant a dream.

CHANGE

My whole life, I have been presented to a single element called change. Change occurs in many different forms and is carried out in many different ways. However, just recently, I have come to the realization that change can be the deepest of all subjects. I always assumed that change occured when you moved to a new town or when you lost someone close to you. Those are elements to change, yes, but change doesn't have to occur over a single dramatic event. It can just happen overnight when your brain determines it's time to do something different. 

For obvious reasons, people reject change. Especially people who are close to each other because they feel that this change is going to seperate them and make them not as close as they used to be. They fight the change until they force the person to change. It's sad how this works, but in reality, it's probably the single most reason why people change. The people we love, love us so much that they want us to remain the way we are forever. Forever is a long time and not one person can always stay the same. Sometimes if the people we love would just accept the change and go with it, they would understand where the change was origianlly coming from. 

It's dangerous to try to stop change and argue against it, especially if the person wants to change so much. The reason that somebody wants to change is usually not their choice, but a feeling that the person feels inside their head and heart. It's almost like a celestial force is making you change and you have no say in the matter but you know you have to because your mental and physical attributes are commanding you to. Maybe the change isn't the best change, but if you dig deeper, the person that you love and know isn't really changing, they are just trying to find themselves and the one thing they need the most is the support of the people who they care about the most. When the people they care about the most dismiss their change as something unimportant and try to guard down everything by rules and regulations, the person they loved begins to change out of sadness that the one group of people he or she thought would understand, really has no clue. Maybe change isn't always good or bad, like I was saying before, but it could be looked at as something to help you grow. So just remember..if someone is changing, be there for them, offer your their opinion but help them go through whatever they need to go through because they will do what they need to do regardless of the people that they really do love. 

KANNAWIDAN 2015

VIGAN CITY, Ilocos Sur – The best of Ilocos Sur’s culture, tradition and beauty hits the limelight anew in the much-awaited month-long Kannawidan (tradition) Ylocos celebration 2015 kicking off January 29.With Ilocos Sur Gov. Ryan Singson at the helm, the 7-year-old festival, being positioned as one of the best in the country, has gained new heights with its must-see festivities in this year’s edition. Among them are different culture and tradition—inspired events like the fashion show showcasing the province’s pride abel iloco, art exhibit, traditional games and sports such as the Ilocos Sur version of rodeo. “Kannawidan Ylocos Festival offers everything our province mates and tourists wanted to enjoy in a festival. We proclaim ‘Sure Ilocos Sur’ because of our complete package of fun and entertainment,” Singson said. Singson bared that they are all-out in their efforts to promote the province anchored on its heritage, natural and man-made wonders as exemplified by Vigan City—one of New Wonders Cities of the World. Kannawidan is synonymous with Ilocos Sur (founded February 2, 1818 by virtue of Spanish Royal Decree) because of its rich history, tradition and culture. A concelebrated mass followed by parade of statues of patron saints around the historic city of Vigan ushers in the carnival with the Quirino Stadium, which is on its final phase of its renovation as the main hub. Ilocos Sur’s beauties also takes center stage in the highly-anticipated “Saniata ti Ylocos” (pageant contest) while its outstanding sons and daughters will be honored in the Father Jose Burgos Achievement Awards. Products of Ilocos Sur and from nearly provinces will be exhibited in the trade fair highlighted by longanisa eating contest and cooking competition. Also on tap are cultural and motor shows, talent searches and the competitions in practical shooting, Mixed Martials Arts and running. For nightcaps, there will be shows dished out by mostly Manila-based entertainers and artists.

3 is not my Number

Third grading was busier than the previous once because of conflicts on schedules of activities at school. Unfortunately I was not capable of making up most of my activities at my academics because of some activities at school and me being irresponsible as a student.

So this grading ICT IV is a lot similar than the last grading’s lessons. We just resumed discussing about the HTML tags and resumed our activities. We find out new tags that can be used to insert, align and resize images. Before our Christmas Break we must comply on our teacher’s project that is to make somewhat a web design or web page on a certain topic. Luck was not on our side because we manage to finish it on time but the problem was the USB got jammed. So we were unable to past it but our teacher gave us the chance to past it anyway next year.

This grading was not so good for me luck is not on my side. I was so irresponsible and lousy on doing my duties as a student. My problem was time management how can I balance things at school, especially of many distraction at school. I got distracted and lost path of where am I going. So as a sign of aspiring for better result this grading I will try to limit things that are inappropriate to do and not to play time. It takes patience on doing this that’s what I have learn nothing can be done without patience. Next grading would be our last so I want to give it my best.

Lucky 2015

2015 is just a couple of blocks a way. Start it with a Bang! Make the loudest noise you can ever make, jump as high as you can so that 2015 will be lucky year.

New year, new life and hope to everyone. Some List things they want to do this is being jot down. Maybe you’ve include some from last years unfinished things and some maybe new and something unique that you want to try out. Some just promises never to do it again because it brought them to failure. But these this sad to say sometimes do not come true maybe its because they did not put such effort or just the old saying goes ‘’Promises are made to be broken’’.

So this year I will leave it up. I will be someone successful these year to make up for 2014 tragic for myself. It would be the year I will prove myself that I can be what I want to be. Because I’m feeling it 2015 is gonna be my year.

ESSENCE OF CHRISTMAS

It’s the month everyone is waiting for December is here. Christmas is on the block magnetic lights on the neighbourhoods Christmas trees can be seen, kids carolling are filled with joy, boys playing fire crackers noise up the streets and families get together to celebrate the most enjoyable month of the year.

When it’s Christmas time, people exchange gifts often and take it for granted. This holiday is usually associated with receiving gifts. Personally, I think giving a gift is just as great as receiving one. Most of the time giving can be even more enjoyable. The whole idea of finding that perfect gift, making someone smile, and him or her realizing that you put that much thought into just one gift is just one way which Christmas brings happiness to everyone. 

You see the essence of Christmas is having the perfect gift to someone you love something, or an action that will make that special someone truly happy is the real essence of Christmas

CLIMATE CHANGE

Since the beginning of human civilization, mankind has lived in a competitive relationship with nature. His relentless pursuit of progress, comfort and security has resulted in increased stress on environment, particularly since the industrial revolution.

       In result to the existence of global warming that triggered what we call now climate change. A long-term change in the earth’s climate, especially a change due to increasing in the average atmospheric temperature. The effects of climate change are undeniable. Research conducted by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) and other reputed meteorological institutions proves that average yearly temperature has been steadily growing over the last decades. The sea levels have also been rising, and the number of floods in different parts of the world has increased dramatically. Glaciers in the Northern Hemisphere have started to melt. This caused more icebergs to drift into the ocean. They currently pose a serious threat to both, cruise and cargo ships that course through the waters of the northern regions. There are reports of some icebergs being spotted far to the South from Greenland.

       So act now before its to late Mother earth is already warning us remember ‘’PREVENTION IS BETTER THAN CURE.’’

‘’Knowledge is Power’’

At a young age it is important that we set in our hearts and mind that reading is essential into our lives. WE MUST VALUE READING. Necessarily for us to develop the habit of reading. It develops once skill and even teaches some lesson in life.

          Reading makes you imagine beyond your wildest thoughts. It brings you to places you’ve never been or take you to an out of this world adventure. Everything can be obtain by reading.

We are All Equal

Male are far more superior than Female in our old society. They are given such privileged to many things, things that women were not given a chance to have in the old times. But as time goes by people realise that this Male over Female superiority is not so good.  We all humans whether you’re a male or female, so we are all equal.

          For more than 30 years, UNFPA has advocated for women and girls, promoting legal and policy reforms and gender-sensitive data collection, and supporting initiatives that improve women's health and expand their choices in life.

All women deserve a life with the opportunity to be educated, to work, to be healthy and to participate in all aspects of public life. Yet in every country in the world, women and girls live within the confines of rigid gender discrepancies, which frequently result in disproportionate access to essential services and major violations of their human rights. WE ARE ALL EQUAL.
