At last!

  When it comes to our lessons and topic, I learned all about creating a Site Map. I enjoyed discovering how it works and its importance or function when creating it. Since it is the final quarter, I had gained lessons not only about our topics in ICT subject but also values and wisdom during our class sessions. I learned of becoming systematic and resourceful. It helped me improve my ability to find quick and clever ways to overcome difficulties when making activities and projects. This subject also enhances my creativity when it comes to computer technology and written works.   For the final quarter, I would say that compared to the previous quarters, I had encountered less difficulties during this quarter. At first, I had a difficult time understanding the terms and definitions about MS FrontPage and making a sitemap. I was confused about the steps and procedure in opening my file but when I got used to it, making my sitemap was easy to do and control.  Because of ...

Dreaming for a Better Future

Image
"The Future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of thier dreams." Having a dream means having a great future. Dreams help a person understand himself or herself in many ways. It helps understand a person in what he/she wants in life. Her wants, goals and the things a person love in many aspects in life. Dreaming is essential for a human being. Without dreams, you will lose interest in life and hate to live life.     We dream for the future. We imagine and plan off things that we want to become or do in the future. Denzel Washington once said, "Dream big — but remember dreams without goals are just dreams, and they ultimately fuel disappointment. Everyone has a dream in their own lives. Having a dream means thinking about what you want to happen in the future which includes your aspirations and desire. But, if you not put goals in your dream, it will just stay as a dream. Goals means really dedicating your time, effort, sweat, and actions towards achieving that dre...

Risk it or not?

C. Joybell once said, “We can’t be afraid of change. You may feel very secure in the pond that you are in, but if you never venture out of it, you will never know that there is such a thing as an ocean, a sea.” Change can be hard to achieve due to that it’s difficult to leave the routine you’ve become familiar with. Because of this thought, a person is afraid of change or to able oneself for his/her own improvement.   Growing always leads to change. By embracing change and exploring things outside your comfort zone means discovering what you really love and what you stand out in. For instance, the life cycle of a butterfly. In this process, the form of the insect change as time passes by. It starts off as a caterpillar then eventually transforms into a colorful butterfly. In this example, it shows how change affects everything. If you learn to risk it, you may end up with a result that you might like.   Always remember, change always begins on the inside. It is only yourse...

              Isabelo Delos Reyes also known as the Philippine Labor movement was a Labor activist in the 19th and 20th centuries. He organized the Union Obrera Democratica Filipina of which he became the first president. He initiated the celebration of "Labor Day" on May 1, 1902. On said occasion, he published the first labor newspaper, La Redencion de Obrero. He fought for our country to aim the justice and rights for all Filipinos. With the loyalty of Isabelo de los Reyes to the patriotic principles he fought for, he can also be judged a hero who should be honored.     Araw ng mga Manggagawa. Every year, Filipinos nationwide celebrate Labor Day to honor their devotion to hard work.

Attestation towards my Understanding and Comprehension

              In this 3rd Quarter Grading,  my knowledge about HTML deepened. I further learned about HTML Frames and HTML list. We also learned how to conduct a Community-Based Research. I learned how to collaborate with my other classmates and really emphasize Teamwork. Because of the conduction of our CBR, I have discovered more deeply against different municipality's culture, economics, environment, History, Health and well-being, and its Language and Literature.   One of the problems that I have encountered is firstly, when I took our examination. I struggled to determine what category the Community-Based Research title belongs to. Second, when I made my exercises on our HTML activity, I had a hard time coding the given pursuit.  Thankfully, I was able to overcome all of the issues and difficulties I ran across during our ICT third quarter. When I had problems in doing our HTML exercises and the conduction of our CBR, I try to ...

SEMANA SANTA 2023

Image
  Following the Epiphany Season in the Christian calendar comes Lent. It is a day set aside by us each year to reflect on the love of God that was manifested in Christ Jesus' death on the cross and in His victory over sin, death, and the devil via His death and resurrection, which grants you Everlasting Life.     During this year's Lenten season, my cousins and relatives went here to Ilocos for a week. We all  commemorate during Holy Week. During Good Friday, we went to visit churches also called as Visita Iglesia. It was also an opportunity to bond with my family, friends, and cousins. On Easter Sunday, we went on a trip to the beach to celebrate that Christ had risen. On that short vacation I would say I enjoyed it because I had time to bond with my family especially friends and cousin after a long period of time not being each other.  Lent is the Christian season of spiritual preparation before Easter. In Western churches, it begins on Ash Wednesday. During L...

A Time To Commemorate

Since the pandemic, my school didn't celebrate High School day because for some obvious reason. This year, we finally celebrated Ilocos Sur National High School 121st High school day with a theme "renewed Commitment in defying Odds to Transcend Heights of Excellence and Solidarity." Many preparations were made for that day and I will say, it was  a successful and amazing event that I had experienced.   High School day  is a very special event that my school conduct to celebrate and remember High school. It was full of many activities that surely amazed me. But first, we had a Eucharistic Mass to start the event holy. after that, we had an opening program to welcome ISNHS's High School day. In the afternoon, there was a presentation of Calisthenics and a short performance led by Grade 10 Students. Additionally, grade 9 students presented different festival dances that emphasize the culture and tradition of each one.  It was short, but it was memorable.  not only ...

In the Philippines, the Women’s Month Celebration has since served as a venue to highlight women’s achievements and discuss continuing and emerging women’s empowerment and gender equality issues and concerns, challenges, and commitments.

A DECLARATION OF LOVE

Image
  The 14th of February marks the day we celebrate Valentines. People celebrate this day by sending messages of love or by doing something special and affection to partners, friends, and family. They give flowers, gifts, and also cards to express their love with each other.  First thing in the morning I received a text from my father greeting me a happy valentine’s day. I thought that that was a very sweet gesture that made my day. This year,  I spent my valentines with my classmates, friends, and teachers. Since valentine’s day was a school day, me and my classmates decided to have a simple token of appreciation to all of our teachers. We each gave them flowers and a simple gift witch they have to pick out a piece of paper what gift are they going to get. Next, we surprised them by singing a song. While the song is playing, each of the boys in our classroom danced with our teacher. It was really fun and very memorable. As for me, the significance of celebrating Valentine’...

My experience through HTML

Image
  I have discovered all about HTML or the hypertext mark-up language. The topic of our second grading is maybe my most favorite topic as of now, during our ICT class. I have learned many things about HTML tags and encoding a document. Not only did I gain knowledge but also, I had fun learning and doing all of our activities and exercises.   Throughout the second quarter, I've been loving all of our lessons and can be useful for future purposes.  One of the major problems that I have encountered was when we imputed our USB flash drive in the server, it suddenly cannot read the flash drive. All of our exercises ad activities  where saved in that USB drive and we began to panic because there is a possibility that we will redo all of our activities. Second, when my activity did not work, I started to panic because I cannot find where is the mistake in my file. There are a lot of possible things that might went wrong in what I have encoded. Despite all of the problems and...

I am grateful about my 2022. I've learned and discovered many things that definitely will always be imprinted in my heart. All the memories that have been created whether it may be sad or happy. I am so proud of myself that I have faced all the obstacles and challenges I have gone through last year. Moments that I shed in tears because I was sad and moments I cried because I was dying of laughter.  I am grateful for the people that I have encountered through out the year. I hope that this year, 2023 they will still be in it and will create more memories together.  This year, I want to focus on myself. Create zero distraction for myself and prioritize my goal.

As the year ends and Christmas is almost near, we conducted our Christmas program before our class dismisses.  For me, Christmas is the season of giving and spreading kindness. The thought of Christmas in my mind is full of joy and happiness!  This year, we celebrated our first Christmas program after the pandemic happened. I would say that it is a very memorable party. It is my second and last Christmas party that I will be attending as a junior high schooler. I will surely cherish all the great memories we had made during that day. I am one of the facilitator in our program, I was in charge of making the invitations being one of the emcee's. In spite of all the tasks I did; in the end, I really enjoyed our simple program. We had our lunch and snacks also and ate it together with my classmates and our adviser.We did a lot of parlor games and a dance contest which makes our program more exciting and fun!

              This year marks the 30th year of the National Children’s Month celebration in the Philippines and the national theme of this year’s celebration is “Kalusugan, Kaisipan at Kapakanan ng Bawat Bata ating Tutukan!”  to celebrate the gains and successes of the country in the promotion and protection of children’s rights, its focus is aligned with the key strategies of PPAEVAC to end violence against children and promote their well-being. Studies show that in our country, violent discipline is the most frequent form of violence against children in homes, driven by factors including social norms around the use of and effectiveness of discipline, authoritarian parenting, and parents’ level of education. Also, the lack of supervision, single headed household and absent parents increases the vulnerability of children to sexual violence at home. Emotional violence from parents increases children’s negative behavior, which increases the...
