"CHANGE: It satrs with me"

Change.

If we don't like something, change it. If you think you can't, try it. Yeah. . .Change is what we need, for us to become better. If you want to become good to your friends and to the people around you, change your bad attitudes. Change starts with yourself not anyone else. If you are good, your friends will soon approach you. When we are no longer able to change a situation, we are challenged to change ourselves. change from bad to good and soon your parents and your friends will be good to you and and they will be proud of you.

we can change and start today and make a new ending, don't go back to your past. We must become the change we want to see in the world.

"My Dream, My Future"

All of us have a dream in life. Some would like to be a nurse, doctor, teacher, policeman, an accountant or to become a lawyer. some would like to have a simple life, a simple family.

After five years. . . . . . . .

After all my sacrifices and patience. I will graduate and be a part of the nurses of our country. I will serve the people who are sick and who are in need of my help. On the other hand, I have a boyfriend and I want also to be a good mother and a wife.

After seven years. . . . . .

I'm already 27 years old, then. Maybe we have already enough money to support our needs and to have a family. I am a nurse while my husband is working in a company.
These things are what I'm dreaming of. We need to make a dream in life so that we have an inspiration, for us to strive harder. Don't lose hope and make the best of it. And if you will win, just stay your feet on the ground.

KANNAWIDAN

After the Vigan fiesta, another significant historical event was achieved by the people of Ilocos Sur.

The "Kannawidan Ylocos Festival", which means the feast of practices in Ilocos, was made for the Filipinos. We are preserving and sustaining our own traditions, attractive and delicious products and practices. Many activities, games, shows happened. Some of the artists of the two competing channels were invited. "Saniata ti Ilocos Sur", beauty pageant, was one of the main highlights of this festival. The contestants have the beauty, talent and intelligence. Also, the presentation of the One Town One Product was shown. I went there and i located at the side of Vigan Capitol. The products were really delicious such as yema and puto. All the events were unique.

The festival is not only for the people of Ilocos Sur but also for the foreigners, visitors and people coming from different places.

January 25

Vigan is one of the UNESCO World Heritage Sites. It is the capital city of Ilocos Sur.

January 25 is the center of Vigan's celebration. We celebrate this as our fiesta and the conversion of St. Paul, the town's patron saint. The celebration of the Vigan fiesta usually starts on the 16th day of January. The City Government of Vigan gives also importance to the educational sector. Many activities happened. One of the highlights of the Vigan fiesta was the "Longganiza Street Dancing Competition". Waaaaaaaaaahhhh!!!!! Ilocos Sur National High School Dancers were so great and energize. Unfortunately, they didn't win in the said competition.

FIESTA. . . . . . . .the most awaited event. It is the day that Filipinos are celebrating in their town/place. Fiesta brings harmony and solidarity to the Filipinos. I hope, next year would still be fun, great and exciting.

Learn From It

3rd quarter is almost over. I've learned lot of things. We used notepad. I also learned how to do the web design. It helps me a lot. 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.

I've also encountered problems that make my day so moody. It's been a great struggle and more challenging because I am a special science class student. We are more vulnerable to different kinds of problems. We come to face advanced subjects, sometimes, I found it hard to learn but I still manage to passed all the subjects. Being such a student is like looking at my left while I'm facing at my right. It feels like my head is going to blow for everyday, we are bombarded with knowledge and information our school has offered us. Sometimes I got so busy that I don't have the time to watch television and rest, I got sick and tired. But after all, I am happy because everyday I am learning tidbits of knowledge not only at the subjects I have but also at the responsibilities and priorities I have.

Facing such problems, I must require strength and courage to surpass all the obstacles coming on my way. The help of my friends and family, I surpassed them all. One of the greatest responsibilities I've ever had in hand is when I become SK Chairman of Brgy. VII. I have to make my Annual Development Plan. Since then, I've been in so many activities, many responsibilities and team buildings that give me the self-confidence. There are no regrets to the problems I had in my life.

Moving on, I will be more attentive in class and I will study harder. Every lesson I've learned from the problems I had will be used for the better of my future and I will value each lesson for the rest of my life.

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.
