CHRISTMAS TIME!

        “Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way”

I woke up and suddenly IT’S CHRISTMAS! I never really noticed the time.

Christmas has always been sacred to us as a family. Never did we have a very grand Christmas Celebration. It was always prayers, gift giving and my favorite our so called family gathering where we sit in front of our Christmas Tree listening to Christmas carols and sharing stories and laughter.

During Christmas Eve we only have few dishes; simple ones then, greeted everyone a Jolly Christmas. When morning came, we went to church and thanked God for all the blessing he had showered upon me and my family. Christmas was always a time for praise and thanksgiving. 

Climate Change

Change for Climate Change

            Is it me? Or it’s just getting really hot? The weather nowadays is changing rapidly and we can’t seem adjust to its new state.

          The weather today is like a girl changing clothes. It never stops to change. It’s unpredictable some days it’s sunny then, the next it’s raining. Climate Change is really a burden to all of us but there is more to it than meets the eye. It is the main reason for rising of temperature, melting of ice caps in both south and north poles and also the acid rain. It degrades Mother Nature slowly and we, the human race are the only ones to blame for this catastrophic phenomenon.

Human activities have contributed substantially to climate change by adding CO2 and other heat-trapping gases to the atmosphere but we can still do something about it. If we could only change our ways and plant trees then we could restore the beauty Mother Earth once had.  There is time to save our future from destruction and pollution so get away from your computer and start the action through a cleaner and healthier world. Let’s Change for Climate Change!

English Month Celebration

English: The Chain of Nations

 “Outpouring Hearts and Minds through English Proficiency” – Theme of this year’s English Month Celebration.

English has always been the chain that linked countries together. Without English there won’t be any expression of thoughts and feelings. Communicating had never been easier with the use of ENGLISH.

Our school celebrated the English Month in December and there were various contests such as Quiz Bee, Spelling Bee, Speech Choir, Readers Theatre, Jazz Chants and of course the Parade of Characters where the students get to dress up copying their favorite mythological character.

The English Month Celebration is a great opportunity where the students can show and express their talents and skills in English namely speaking and writing. This celebration helped improved English Proficiency and Literacy and the English Department did a great job in launching this wonderful event.

Equal Rights, Equal Oppotunities

Equality: Be Fair to Everyone

          

          Equality has always been a dream to the human race. A impossible dream that can never be attain since everyone has it's own differences but that doesn't stop there. Equality can be observed in simple ways and as a student equality is very important specially when in comes to school work.

           As a child, I was raised with my two brothers equally. My parents treated us equally, what the other has the other two must have it also. Equality is a must in our house and it should also be in our school. We cannot deny the fact that their is favoritism in the four corners of the classroom and most of it is linked with the economical status of the student. This FAVORITISM must come to an halt. FAIR TREATMENT is always a MUST.

           Total equality is impossible to attain but when it comes to treatment, equality is never close to impossible. Equality can be easily done if it is in the mind set of that person. 

           In school, the most frequent scenario when equality is abused when choosing a contestant in a certain contest. Sometimes, they just handpick a contestant even though their is a possibility that someone can do it better. It's unfair! the right to do is to have an elimination contest and by that giving the students equal opportunities. 

           It is just right to treat people equally to avoid envy or jealousy. Being equal lessesn the hatred omitted. It's a simple act that can change the world so BE EQUAL. BE FAIR to everyone.

Where did the time go?

                What? The second grading period is over? Where did the time go?

                Second Grading. *sighs*

                What a busy quarter the second one is! I didn’t have enough time to really get the hang of having classes. I was too busy with so much extra-curricular things going on like the Sabayang Pagbigkas, Intramurals and the Pinning of Ranks.

                Too much of my time was wasted. I know that I should know my priorities and my priority is to study first before anything else. This grading, I lost my focus and will. My laziness took over and just like that every time I right blogs I really need to force everything out while in the first grading everything  went so smoothly and effortless. During the discussions I sometimes feel kind of lost and I can’t understand the teacher is saying.

                Moving on, I will really balance the time that I have. I should know my priorities. I should attend my classes regularly and be attentive in every second. I need to comply in every requirement just in time.

                I sure hope next grading my performance will be better. x

Intramurals 2k14

          Intramurals 2k14 – out last year in High School, out last Intramurals in the four corners of ISNHS, we need to make this year’s Intramurals memorable. But when things started to sound great, it all went unexpectedly WRONG!

             

          The CAT unit was instructed to have the duty. I was assigned to manage everything since the Corps Commander and Corps EXO are busy. I really didn’t know how to start the duty but I considered everyone’s suggestion which is to stay with their friends. It’s our last Intramurals in ISNHS so why not make it memorable right?

                The first day of Intrams was great considering that I spent time with my crush. We watched the basketball game and I even got to try being the scorer of the game. I didn’t quite understand the game though but the important thing was I enjoyed it.

                Then, the second day of Intrams came... it came with a terrible storm and it ruined everything. Me and my girls have plans that day but unfortunately, the Intrams was postponed. The second day of Intrams was supposed to be all fun but it didn’t go well. We all had to stay at home and wait for further announcements.

                The Intrams was continued every 3:00pm that following weeked after the storm. We didn’t watch the games since we weren’t allowed to, only the athletes were excused in their classes. It was sad since it was the last Intrams and it vanished like a bubble not even having time to appreciate its beauty.

Hero in The Making

Hero in The Making

            I always knew not all superheroes wear capes; some just wear normal clothes and uniform.

            Back when, I was in elementary. My teacher always scolded me. Why? Because I was too silent, just sitting on my seat and that pushed me to practice my speaking skills so that I won’t be scolded again. Since I grew more participative in class, I got higher grades and all her teachings that I should be confident stayed in my head and brought me to my position today. A life changer she is.

            They say that being a teacher is the noblest profession, it sure is! I love it how one person can change so many lives and It must have been and honor to them if they see their students become professionals. Without a teacher there won’t be any doctors, nurses, lawyers or any other professions out there.

            My teachers are my inspiration in making my life improved day by day. They teach me not only things from the book but also in battling in everyday’s survival. I can’t imagine all the sacrifices a teacher does to all his/her students. It takes skill to talk in front and try to explain to the students what you’re talking about. It saddens me to think that these educators aren’t getting what they deserve and I think it’s just proper to have a day to honor and to be grateful to them.
