New Beginning

2011, a new year, a new beginning, new opportunity to start new things, another year of unexpected happenings, new responsibilities are waiting and new obstacles to face.
Way back 2010 was an amazing and exciting year. I met new friends. I've been in so many activities that enhanced my social living. I've been in so many obstacles but thankfully, I surpassed them. I lived my high school life with flying colors. I even had a chanced to be with my love. I've done something good not only for myself but also for the people around me. But after all, there are also times that I committed mistakes. I may have done something wrong and I may have hurt somebody, those wouldn't stop me and my dreams to move forward and live. And now, 2011 has arrived, time to straighten up my things and correct my mistakes I've done. big things are coming. I know I'm another 0ne-step closer to my goals and dreams. I'll be using the things I learned to become more stronger, more aggressive and more careful. I won't let any obstacles put me down.
I also have my New Year's resolutions. I'll be more thrifty, become physically fit and I'll study harder. I'll give my best to surpass all the obstacles and responsibilities I may face. I hope this year would be more exciting and more amazing than the previous years.

The Moment We've Been Waiting For. . .

Wind is blowing. Christmas lights are dancing. Children are laughing all around. Christmas songs are playing. Foods are cooked and baked.
Family gathers and some goes to church. Everyone filled with joy as they wait before the clock strikes at twelve midnight. And before they know, it was already Christmas, the day that everyone has been waiting for, the day of giving, sharing, loving and forgiving. The day not only for the children but also for the old ones. Christmas is so special for it's the day when Jesus Christ was born. The day where kids go to their "ninongs and ninangs" for their Aguinaldo and as seconds turned to minutes to hours, everyone seems to be happy and contented of what joy that day brings.
As the day ends, the essence of Christmas still lingers as they greet everyone a "MERRY CHRISTMAS". In every minute remaining, they spend it with great happiness for they know they would have to wait for another 12 months for that special day to come.

One of the most important factor in a well-unified society is values. Considering the fact that one must follow the rules and regulations of the society in order to pursue and gain wellness in their place.
The fact that they couldn't handle some problems in the community, because of the lack of bond, misconceptions, ignorance and jealousy. So, if everyone will contribute the same aspects, trust, loyalty and devotion. Having self-respect may influence others to do good things. Giving concern and care of the health of everyone from an individual will bring the society into a better and good place to live. Focusing on these factors may bring the society to a more civilize and more progressive. With the help of one another, they may bring it from zero to hero.
Having all the things we need, the help we want, the security and the best service we could get bring us especially to the road of success.

My Very Special Semestral Break

Our Semestral Break is over. After 5 months of staying at Ilocos Sur National High School we were given a chance to have our break. A break that is full of happiness and excitement.

The greatest escape, my very special semestral break. Its been days since our semestral break was ended but the memories are still fresh, reminiscing back then was an exciting and surprising day. It was October 23, I have to get ready for who is coming. So along with my precious smile and my everlasting charm, I headed to the partas terminal, later in the afternoon. I am so excited for my boyfriend is arriving from Manila. It's been never since I saw him, so I have no idea what will happen and there he goes, seeing him face to face was an extra-ordinary feeling. I might say, the greatest semestral break started the moment he stepped out of the bus. We get along that day, we have fun, we take a walk in the park at night and we ate empanada. It was so amazing, I just can't wait for the days to come. As the night ends, we were separating our ways for I am heading to our house to sleep and he's going to sleep at my Aunt's house. The nights turn into days. Later, I had known of the Raniag Twilight Festival, the long awaited lagim dancers, I was going to be a part of the group but I have chosen spending my time with my boyfriend. My choice was never a mistake. I haven't noticed that the days are moving so fast. I am starting to feel down for my boyfriend is going home on November 2. We spent his remaining days here in Vigan with flying colors. It was All Saints Day, we went to the cemetery to visit my eldest sister and we offered her a candle and a prayer. That night lasted for so long. I just can't think of what will happen when my boyfriend goes home. November 2, the class started, I am still bothered with my boyfriend's departure and as the night comes, sadness fills our face and as he stepped into the bus, I know I'm gonna miss the times when he's here. Eventhough that day was very sad, precious happy moments are tatoed on my mind.

This is my best Semestral Break ever. If ever I have a chance to have that kind of days again, I won't hesitate to seize it.

"Being A High School Student"

Being a high school student is not just "happy go lucky".

Learning is gaining knowledge or skills from others and even yourself. I've learned new knowledge in this past grading period. I've learned about the Mark-up Tags. Now, I'm applying my past lessons in making our activities and also when we are having a test about it. It is good for me to know those things, it has a great impact for me. Those things that I've learned can help me in my future life.

Being a student is fun, but it does have its down side. I've also encountered problems that make my day so moody. One of my big problems is that I have no enough money because sometimes my mother have no time to send it. Sometimes, my mind gets blank due to over excitement or so nervous. I am the kind of person that is not so much exposed to public that's why sometimes I am shy to share or express my opinion.

I addressed those problems with love and care. And also, I surpassed them with self-confidence so, I can reach my goal in life. Moving on, I will spend more time in reviewing my notes. I will be more attentive in class. I will also recognize my learning habits to improve my learning efficiency.

Breaking Barriers Through English

English is a global language because it is widely spoken in the whole world. It has a large impact on every other languages.

English helps us in many ways. We usually use English in communicating to the people in other countries. It helps us to unite. Without English, we will not be able to know the feelings of others. And we will be all quarreling because we can't understand the opinion of others. It also helps us to attain progression, most specifically our country, the businessmen will negotiate to other countries and if they can't speak nor understand English, they will not be able to reach progression.
Let's us break the barriers so that our life will continue cycling. Let's promote unity through English. Let's practice speaking in English to know and surpass challenges in life related to it.

Filipinnovation: The Way Forward!

Different countries rose from zero to hero, from poor to wealthy, but how about us? We neither move forward nor stay in place of success. In order for us to gain steps in moving forward, we must be able to comply other countries.
Inventions and discoveries are some key factors to move forward. As an example, a Filipino doctor in vented the first incubator. Technology combined with invention, the best way to foresee that we, Filipinos are going to be like other countries, well-known, advanced and innovated. Another way of improving our way of living is through discovery of new things such as gadgets, equipments and machines to make living life easy.
To much forward is to gain advantage to others, not only in a technological way but also in our own local way. It doesn't mean that you cannot help Filipinos if you are uneducated. Things around us might be the key for us to move forward and so, Filipinnovation is not only in the hands of the educated people but all the Filipinos are the main ingredient for us to move forward.
