#3^rdGradingPeriodEnds

As the year 2015 starts, the 3^rd Grading Period of our class is nearly ending. A lot of learnings again about computer technology have filled my brains. Even though, it was hard for me to manage my time in doings all requirements to be passed, I have still maintain to study my subject in ICT-IV.

My knowledge in doing a HTML Document has already increased. I can also memorize some of the tags that are used in a HTML Document.

Still, I am enjoying my class in ICT and I will miss it when I am graduating in High School.

New Year New Me

Happy New Year Everyone! Say Good Bye to the year 2014 and let’s Welcome 2015!

Is it possible that a person would be able to change if the New Year starts? I don’t think so. Is it possible to make our new year’s resolutions become true? How could it be? I think it is only true at the start. After how many or months, people would be able to forget it.

For me, changing my wrong attitudes is very important. But, I cannot promise that it would be an easy thing for me to change all of this. One of my teachers told us that we can post a clean blank sheet of paper in our room. Then, every wrong doings that we will make, just write a dot or mark into it so that you will remember how bad or good are you in one day. I think this is one of the ways that I can do to decrease my wrong doings until I will be able to see a clean blank page.

Now, the year 2015 has now started so let’s start a new life and forget the past.

The Real Essence of Christmas

Celebrate the Goodness of God Not the Season Itself

The most awaited part of the year of some people is the month of December because the season of Christmas comes. There are a lot of decorations and preparations they do with their houses such as building a Christmas tree with gifts under it, hanging a star lantern outside their houses, shopping gifts for their children, and many more just to celebrate Christmas. But, they do know what is the real essence of Christmas, or they just follow the traditions in Christmas season?  What did Christmas means to them?

As is with any festival, Christmas has many traditions and customs, which are being carried forward by families the world over. These traditions and customs may be as varied as the diversity in cultures. Some though are common to everyone celebrating Christmas in any part of the world. But for me, the most special thing to do in Christmas is to remember the birth of our Lord Jesus Christ and giving thanks to Him what did He do to save us from our sins. Also, George Millward McDougall said that Christmas means a spirit of love, a time when the love of God and the love of our fellow men should prevail over all hatred and bitterness, a time when our thoughts and deeds and the spirit of our lives manifest the presence of God. This comment says it all. Christmas is not all about merry making. We must also spare time to reflect on the essence of the period, which is the love of God for humanity.

As we celebrate His birth, let us be human and kind enough to remember and show some love to those motherless babies, helpless orphans, hospital patients, prisoners, beggars and all those who are not fortunate enough to be actively involved in the celebration.

Climate Change

You Need to Change to

Save the Future

 

Are you already aware on what is happening now in our environment? If not, wake up, for the world has many changes at all compared to the beginning. Our surroundings have become dirtier. And even our climate would change same as today. Nowadays, climate change is one of the major problems of human beings. It is already happening and represents one of the greatest environmental, social and economic threats facing the planet.

Sometimes, we are not aware of this kind of problem. Some people wouldn’t care about it. They did not know that climate change can also cause into death. Through increase in temperature, people will suffer from different diseases such as on skin and it can also cause dehydration. The cases of hypertension and heart attack will increase also. It can affect every person including our health. This climate change is either the revenge or warning of nature because of our wrong doings to it. This may stop if we people would have a discipline that can manage the nature wisely.

Learning how to take care of the environment will decrease the rate of having a climate change. So, why don’t people think about it? It can help us a lot. So that the living in this world will last long.

National Reading Month Celebration

Outpouring Our Hearts and Minds through Literacy and English Proficiency

            Today, one of the most important subjects for students is about learning English, such as how to write, read and speak English language. We are learning it because it has an important value in our country. We learn English to make our country a better one. Some of trade and businesses have progressed because we can communicate to other countries to supply our needs here in our country by selling their different products of their country. In Literature, English also has a great contribution in it. We can’t read their Literature if we don’t even know how to understand it. That’s why learning English is very important.

          English is the dominant business language and it has become almost a necessity for people to speak English if they are to enter a global workforce, research from all over the world shows that cross-border business communication is most often conducted in English. Its importance in the global market place therefore cannot be understated, learning English really can change your life. Although learning English can be challenging and time consuming, we can see that it is also very valuable to learn and can create many opportunities.

Equal Rights Equal Opportunities

We Have the Rights

       Most people take it for granted that women and men should be treated equally, receive the same quality of education and have equal opportunities. But, for now, what is happening? Some countries haven’t yet this type of equality. We are born because we have the right to live in this world. We are all equal and have the right to make free will. The call for equal is a persuasive one. All people are created in the image of God, and no person, and certainly not a whole category of people, should be subjected to unjust and unequal treatments.

  Now, they are promoting the gender equality in our country and it is a way of making the women’s rights strong because it is wrong to persuade women that they should first enter such opportunities that a man can do. Children, they have the rights too, because they are also human beings like us that can’t be abuse. They have the right to be loved and take good care.

       Human rights of every individual are very important to human living. A person should be given equal opportunities to prove that he/she is important as a human being. Give every person a respect so that they will enjoy their freedom as a human being.

Intramurals 2014

Improving Physical Skills and Maintaining Physical Fitness through Sports and Dance

  High school life would not be completed without the Intramural Sports Program because this is very important to every student like us. It improves our physical skills and maintains the fitness of our body.  The main purpose of the intramural sports program is to provide opportunities for students, faculty, and staff to actively engage in activities involving sport, dances, recreation, and play while providing structure for an experiential education.

      
   Last September 18, it was declared that the Intramurals 2014 in Ilocos Sur National High School is open. It is headed by Mr. Dennis Quillopo, the intramural coordinator of the school. The next day, sports were held during that day such as soccer, volleyball, basketball and etc. The weather was not good at all that made the Intramural continued last September 25. It was a battle between the four different year levels namely: Freshies, Sophies, Juniors and the Seniors team. They competed to win the trophy of the champions. What team do you think who owns it?
