ESSENCE OF CHRISTMAS

Christmas is in the air. We can now observe that night is longer than daylight, moreover we can feel the cold air brought about by the season. Bazaars are everywhere, as Christmas shoppers already roam in department stores. Colored lights are also inviting to those who would wish to witness special set ups and displays. These are only few things or indications that Christmas countdown is already on its way and is fast approaching.

But, what is the true essence of Christmas? For me Christmas marks the day of our salvation because this is the day when Jesus was given to us by our dear Lord. The greatest Love was given to us on this season; enough reason for us to give it back to our Lord through our brethrens by sharing with them our blessings. Let the less fortunate brothers and sisters feel that they are also blessed with God’s love. Let them feel that like us, they are also important. Let us put a smile on their face by doing Christ-like acts such as doing charity works and fellowshipping with others.

In closing, it is right to do things in preparation for Christmas season. But we must remember the true essence of Christmas. That is, remembering the only reason for all this preparations and letting others know this fact that only Jesus is the reason for the season. MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL!!!

NEW CHAPTER!!

This second grading, we have lots of lessons taken up. And as days passed, I knew that problems will come in my way. So that, I really doubled my effort to balance my time for ECA, ACA and my personal life. I also lessen my hangouts with my friends so that I can concentrate with my studies. This second grading period, in our subject T.L.E., we never had a discussion about our activities done inside the computer room. We just do our activity, then done! Already done. After all the days of hardwork, here comes the periodical test, the most pressured day ever! And while taking the test, I was thingking.. Have I learned anything? And when I was informed by my friends that I am one of the students who got low scores on the periodical test, I really feel sad. But its ok. Alteast I studied all the lessons I've learned inside the computer room. Well, I just need to exert more effort next grading period so that I will not asking myself if I learned something.

MY TEACHER, MY HERO

I am neither nobody’s favorite nor a teacher’s pet. I am just an ordinary student trying to understand things, new and old. But, I am wondering how it is to be in front of the class; convincing us students the importance of things they are trying to share with us. It could be theoretical or practical, but that is not important. The important thing for me is the responsibility that is at their shoulder.

Being a teacher, it is their responsibility to teach us students the details of each lesson they prepare. Just imagine the time spent to prepare a day lesson; that in stead of attending to their personal needs at home; still they need to write something in their lesson plan. Next is their unconditional effort to have this inculcated in our minds. Not just to memorize the lesson she prepared, but to totally make it easier to be understood by us. How about attending to different types of people, either students or parents? Isn’t it really difficult to handle them? But, surprisingly, they managed to deal with all of them and the concerns brought by them.

It really requires a lot or patience, perseverance and responsibility to do all this things. My Teachers have no super powers; but they are the all time heroes in our lives.

Adapting Science Culture for Development

Adapting Science to our environment is very helpful for living our lives. Living with technology makes our lives easier. And connection of this, the science club is sponsoring somej activities, like poster-making, slogan making, essay-writing, Ginoo at Mutya ng Kalikasan, noise barrage and many more.

As a science clubber, I willl encourage my co- students to join the activities of the science club, especially when its all about nature. We should widen our knowledge to develop more our culture. We should also share our creative and nice ideas to help our nature improved. And we also should join the Clean and Green Program and the Beautification Drive. We should plant trees, do the 3Rs (reuse, rudeuce, recycle). And lastly, we should protect our Mother Earth from any pollution so that the next generation will see the beauty of the world.

FILIPINO DIALECT: FROM BALER TO ENTIRE PHILIPPINES

Filipino people are recognized by the other nations not only by our good traits, nice and creative products but also, by our language.

As President Manuel Quezon declared the Filipino Language at 1987 Philippine Constitution.As we all know, President Manuel Quezon is from BALER, the home of the Filipino Dialect. Tagalog, or also known as Filipino, is widely spoken and is the language most understood in all over the Philippines. And because of it, the Filipino people are united to each other. It must be further developed and enriched on the basis of existing other languages.

As a Filipino, we must use our FILIPINO DIALECT properly. And be proud to be a FILIPINO.

ICT IV

ICT IV, the new TLE subject i encountered. And in the first quarter, I learned how the internet was created and developed. How important it is and how this is used. I learned how to create and use the blog and use this as a communication. And it caught my attention because all my classmates know that I'm interested in discovering new things especially with modern things.

So far, I don't encounter any problems about my studies especially in this subject. But for sure, one of these days, I'll encounter them. Especially now, its so hard for me to balance my time for my studies and extra curricular activities and also to my personal life.

In coming problems, I know, it will make me strong enough to face my problems either in my studies or in my personal life. And I know, facing and solving those problems will be my steps to reach my dreams......

eNgLish anD fiLipinO laNguage..

Language is one of the most important things in world. All the countries, have their own languages. Because of that, we have our universal language, which is ENGLISH, to communicate with other nations. So that, being the universal language, ENGLISH is being used primarily in the world of business. Also, being used medium in instructions in education. Learning ENGLISH is like building a home with strong foundation.

Filipino, is our national language here in the Philippines. We all know that in different provinces here in Philippines, have our own languages. So we use FILIPINO language to communicate with other provinces.

We must use these two languages of ours properly so that we won't misunderstand each other.

" Cigarette smoking is dangerous to your health." This quotation is one of the most popular quotaions about taking care of our health. Having bad vices is bad to our health. It may cause us some diseases like cancer. We must avoid having diseases so that we can live longer and still, do our jobs/ obligations in ouir life without any worries about our health. We must be healthy to feel free to do the things we want to do. But we mus eat nutritious foods, take enough rest and having continuous exercise. to maintain our body healthy. Especially now, we are having different kinds of diseases that may cause our death.
