A Glimpse in the 3rd Grading Period

 Time really flies so fast. One eightht of being a fourth year student is now over. Or shall I say, the Second Grading Period has already ended. And the five months I shared with my teachers and classmates was all worth it. And one of the subjects I loved this Second Grading Period is ICT. I really love this subject because I really have a great interest on computers.

In five months now of being in school, I've already learned a lot of things about our subject ICT. And our main focus in this subject is "Internet". At first, I thought to myself that I know all about the internet. But it's not. There are still a lot of things I need to discover. And with the help of our teacher in this subject, I've already known all about the instances of internet. And without this subject, I'm not posting any blogs here in blogger because I just learned blogging when our teacher taught us to. Having this subject is a big help for me. From this subject, I learned how to make my own blog, wherein I can freely express my thoughts, without having anyone to judge me and I was able to share it to my fellow students, teenagers and other people.

I know that in this subject, there will be more fun and enjoyable lessons to learn, wherein I can express myself and skills in computer. Because, ever since I was at my elementary days, I really love exploring the computer. And through this subject, I believe that I can still improve my knowledge about this aspect because I expect more with ICT.

Happy 2015!

“New Year, New Me, “New Year, New Life”, “Oh 2015, please be good to me”, these are the most common thoughts that people say. And it’s not new anymore.

                Some people say we must change every next coming year. But for me, it’s not. There’s nothing that has to change but there is only we have to end. Let’s end our bad memories that we had and start something new for 2015.

                So, it’s another year again that we are going to treasure. So let’s enjoy everything and start a new beginning for a new happy life.

The Essence of Christmas

Today's Christmas is no longer a celebration of Christ and happiness, but is a celebration of a now fake, commercialized, overweight Santa Claus. The idea of eating yet another turkey dinner while watching a forgettable Disney movie on television brings tears of pain, not joy, to one's eyes. The main virtues of the holidays have gone from an idealistic white wonderland, to a migraine-causing festival of greed.

The Christmas of the past was once a beautiful celebration of the birth of Christ. Families would come together to enjoy the holidays together in a peaceful, loving environment. Children ran around in a pine scented home, clamoring over the presents that Santa had brought the night before. Even if the family was struggling, children would appreciate the hard work and thought put into each gift. At night mothers, fathers, brothers and sisters would curl beside a blazing fire and watch a classic Christmas movie called, "It's a Wonderful Life". This is what the true spirit of Christmas should be.

The Christmas of the present is not what it used to be. What once was a delightful, Christmas caroling time is now a chaotic, screaming in someone's face nightmare. Relatives avoid each other for fear of actually reliving bad childhood family moments. 

Say No To Climate Change!

The surroundings is very much amazing and wonderful. But there’s a big difference now. Everywhere you go, there are garbages, only few trees and dying grasses, plants and flowers. And everything we breathe in now is pollution.

            I know you’re aware of what is happening around us. But what are we doing? There are so many ways on how to prevent climate change. Instead of scattering garbages everywhere, why don’t we use our creativity so that our garbage can turn into something useful? There is this so called the 3R’s; the Reduce, Reuse and Recycle. And also, let us maintain the greatfulness of our surroundings God has given to us. Plant trees especially in our backyards. Don’t burn plastics because it will destroy the ozone layer. Maintain cleanliness in our surroundings. These are just simple ways that we can do in helping to prevent climate change.

            Our generation today is very advanced now. But let us take time to focus on our surroundings. Let us work hand in hand to help one another in preventing climate change. Because as we say, the future lies on us.

Outpouring Our Hearts and Minds Through Literacy and English Proficiency

Reading, it is one of the most important ways for us to learn. They say that if we read, we can travel through our imagination. We can extend our knowledge by meeting those unfamiliar words and while reading, we’re already developing ourselves to become a good writer and also an effective speaker.

            We all know that most of the books that we read use an English language because as we all know, it is our universal language. It is because the writers or authors wanted to connect with their readers using the said language because they wanted to be understood by everybody. Through this language, most of the readers will properly understood whatever they want their readers to interpret what is the message of the content.

            Learning English language is never been easy but it’s not the reason for us to stop learning English. In the beginning it’s hard, but when time passes by, you’ll realize that using the universal language is not hard as you think.

Equal Right, Equal Opportunity

In this world, we are all equal in God’s eyes. But in reality, in every person’s sight, we’re all different in appearance and personality. But I suggest that we must have all equal rights and opportunities.

            The world is an apple. It is circular. It has no corners so we can’t control the happenings that may occur. "Gender equality and women’s empowerment are fundamental to the global mission of the United Nations to achieve equal rights and dignity for all... But equality for women and girls is also an economic and social imperative. Until women and girls are liberated from poverty and injustice, all our goals -- peace, security, sustainable development -- stand in jeopardy."
