Fourth Grading Reflection

     This grading has been an unforgettable and amazing grading. Many challenges came and we surpassed them, as a class. This grading was amazing and I have enjoyed more. I enjoyed this fourth and last grading with my classmates. In the subject TLE, I have learn many concepts and ideas.

     Many concepts were taught to us. One of the concepts I learned is the Adobe Photoshop. We were taught how to make and edit in Photoshop. Our teacher taught us how to use the tools in Photoshop. Our project for this grading is creating our own edit using Photoshop and promoting ur school, ISNHS. We were again tasked to post our blogs.

     I will continue to post in my blog account. I will continue to become a blogger. I will also continue to have the references below my article. I will apply all the concepts our teacher had taught. I will continue to use Photoshop. This grading has been an amazing and good journey.

Dream Big!

     Everyone of us has dreams. These dreams are the reason why are we studying. We need and we want to fulfill our dreams. Becoming an engineer or a doctor or any profession, it's the dream they want in their future. These dreams we want can be the job we can get in the future.


     When I was a child, my dream is to become a lawyer. This is my dream from Nursery to Elementary. When I was in High School, I switched my dream from becoming a lawyer into becoming an accountant. I said to myself that I really want to become an accountant, this is it. This is really my dream. But when I entered Grade 10, I switched again. I dreamed of becoming a Physician. Since I like Physics, I changed my dream. This is my dream.


     Our dreams in our life can be affected by many factors. One factor is your family. They can influence what dream are you going to choose. Another is your friends and teachers. No one can dictate what you will choose to dream. It's all up to you. Follow your dreams.

Kannawidan : Ilocanos' Pride

     Kannawidan Ylocos Festival is annually celebrated festival in Ilocos Sur. This festival is a commemoration to the seperation of Ilocos provinces, Ilocos Sur and Ilocos Norte. The seperation of the two provinces was done on February 2, 1818. This year is the 12th Kannawidan Festival.


      Kannawidan Ylocos Festival became an annual festival that aims to create awareness on the preservation of the province’ rich cultural heritage, practices and traditions, and a showcase of the different agriculture and industry products of the province. The Province of Ilocos Sur once celebrated again Kannawidan Ylocos Festival for the 12th time. “Kannawidan” is a local term used by the Ilocanos which means ‘a traditional practice’. This occasion had opened the eyes of the Ilocanos to the culture and traditions their ancestors in the past had brought them. It’s also their way of celebrating the Ilocano spirit that continues to drive locals to boost their home province. The celebration includes contests such as the Saniata ti Ylocos and Saniata ti Agtutubo, wherein each contestant represent their own town or city to claim the title. It also includes the Street Dancing Competition, "Pinaka Contest", Rodeo and Siglat Eskwela Awards. There is also a trade fair where each town or city sells and shows their own OTOP or "One Town, One Product."

This festival is important to all Ilocanos. It's not only because of the separation of Ilocos Sur and Ilocos Norte, but because it's our tradition. This is the time where each municipality or city proudly shows their own cultures and traditions. It's their pride to show their beliefs to other people. Happy Kannawidan Ylocos Festival! Sure Ilocos Sur!

Starting to Change


     “You must be the change you want to see in the world.”

     It's on us to change the world. If we need to change the world, we need to change ourselves first. If you change how you think then you will change how you feel and what actions you take. And so the world around you will change.


     Changing yourself is hard and the problem with changing your outer world without changing yourself is that you will still be you when you reach that change you have strived for. You will still have your flaws, anger, laziness, negativity, self-sabotaging tendencies etc. intact. You are in control. Youre the one that control yourself in whatever actions youre doing. Forgive and let go. We must forgive the people who have been bad to us and try to let go the things that we dont need. We need to be true to our self. We must reflect ourelves and know more about ourselves. We must know what is wrong with us. So that, the bad things are the things were going to change. This is the start to change.

     
Change is really a part of a person's life. Everything changes. So, even us human change. Nothing on Earth is permanent. The change starts with me. After changing ourselves, lets change the world.

A New Me?

     New Year, New Hope. New Year, New Me. Another year has started again. Every year, we always or sometimes make our own New Year's Resolution. This list will be the things-to-do this new year, as a change for this year from the things we've done last year.

     As we make our resolution, we need to look back and to reflect from the things weve done last year. This resolution will make us better or worse, depending on the effects on the person. Changing your attitudes will mean a lot. Sometimes, your closed friends will notice a lot of changes on you. These changes affect our environment. Our friends, our family and everyone around us. This year, my only resolution is to have a diet and lose weight. To be honest, every year this is my resolution. Yet, I cannot do this because eating is my hobby. All I can do is to continue to do the good things and stop doing bad things. I just want to make my loved ones happy. For this year, there is no new me. Just an ordinary and the old me.

     
Many people have their resolutions in life for this year. The change is within the person wanting to change. If they want a new them, let them be. New Year is a New hope. New year to change and become a better person.

Spirit of Christmas: Giving and Sharing

     We are about to celebrate a special season once again, a season of joy, of peace and of love. Christmas is near. The season where we celebrate the birth of Jesus. Jesus is the reason for the season. But what is the essence of Christmas?
     

     The spirit behind Christmas is that of giving and sharing. We must also spare time to reflect on the essence of the period which is the love of God for humanity. The essence of celebrating the Christmas season is not to have a house full of Christmas lights, Christmas tree and having gifts underneath it. Christmas basically means sharing what you have. We must show our appreciation, saying a simple thank you or a hug to our loved ones and forgiveness among others.

     We must remember that it is the thought that counts and that the love is the most important thing in our lives and in the world. We must bear in mind that Christmas is celebrated because of Jesus, the birth of Jesus. Remember, it's not only in Christmas that we must give and share but everyday.

We are All Born Entitled With Equal Rights

     The equal rights movement began in the eighteenth century with people like Mary Wollstonecraft. She was influenced by the French Revolution and defended its principles. She went to argue that if all men were entitled to equality, liberty and brotherhood, then these should be open to women too. She believed that male/female difference was all down to up-bringing.



   A job would prevent women from becoming trapped in unhappy marriages because they would not be dependent on their husbands and they would have their own jobs as source of income. It was not until 1918 that women first gained the vote and even then it was not on the same terms as men. World War I helped to foster changing attitudes towards women. During World War II, women again took on key roles in the country while the men were away. In many areas around the world, women face inequality in the work place, unequal access to divorce and education, forced marriage and domestic violence.

     Amnesty International campaigns for equal rights and equal opportunities for women world wide. The traditional view of women is that they are the weaker sex and more suited to the roles of wife and mother than the world of work. They have often been believed to be more emotional, less logical, less academically capable and less ruthlessly competitive. We must bear in mind that we are born equal. We are all born entitled with equal rights.

Pag-aalaga at Pag-aaruga sa Lahat ng mga Bata

  "Ang kabataan ang pag-asa ng bayan." - Dr. Jose P. Rizal

     Sa ilalim ng Republic Act 10661, ang buwan ng Nobyembre ay idineklarang "National Children's Month." Ang deklarasyong ito ay gumugunita sa hinangong "Convention on the Rights of the Child by the United Nations General Assembly" noong Nobyembre 20,1989 at gustong makintal ito sa ating mga Pilipino. Ang tema sa taong ito ay, "Isulong: Tamang Pag-aaruga para sa Lahat ng Bata."
 
     Mahirap maging isang guro, inhinyero, doktor o isang abogado. Totoong walang madaling propesyon dito sa mundo dahil lahat ay dapat paghirapan. Pinaplano ng karamihan ang pagsalang sa mga hamong ito.

     Responsibilidad ng nanay at tatay ang tamang pag-aaruga sa anak sa mabuti o maging sa pinakamasaklap na panahon. Susubukin nito ang haba ng pagtitiyaga at pagtitiis ng isang tao nang walang kapalit na sahod. Ang tamang pag-aaruga ay dapat simulan sa pagkasilang. Dapat maglaan ng sapat na oras at panahon ang mga magulang para sa bata. Nararapat na magsimula sa tahanan ang tamang edukasyon, asal at disiplina upang maging mabuti at kapaki-pakinabang na mamamayan ang mga bata. Kung lalaking disiplinado ang bata ay magiging inspirasyon at marangal na ehemplo siya sa iba.

     Nakabatay sa tamang pag-aaruga ang kaunlaran at kahihinatnan ng isang bata. Pati na ang kaunlaran ng isang bansa. Kaya dapat maayos ang pag-aaruga ng mga magulang. Ang pag-aaruga ay importante at napakahalaga.

Think Before You Click


     Tuwing buwan ng Nobyembre, ipinagdiriwang natin ang "Filipino Values Month." Ito ay ipinagdiriwang taon-taon. Ito ay ipinagdiriwang upang ipalala at imulat sa atin ang mga pagpapahalaga sa ating buhay. Ang tema sa taong ngayon ay, "Mapanuring Paggamit ng Gadget: Tungo sa Mapagkalingang Ugnayan sa Pamilya at Kapwa." Ang mga gadgets na ito ay palagi nating ginagamit, araw-araw at halos minu-minuto.

     Napakalaking papel ang ginagampanan ng mga gadgets at teknolohiya sa pang-araw-araw na pamumuhay natin. Nakakatuwang ispin na napapagaan at napapadali ang mga gawain ng tao dahil sa mga ito. Makikita talaga ang pag-unlad ng teknolohiya at pagbabago. Ngunit may masama ring epekto ang mga ito kapag ginamit ito sa maling paraan. May mga pag-aaral ding nagsasabi na nagiging sanhi ang mga ito ng pagbabago sa pag-uugali at paglaganap ng mga ilang sakit. Mahalaga ang mapanuring paggamit ng gadgets. Ang mga gadgets ang tulay o daluyan ng maganda at mapagkalingang ugnayan sa pamilya at gadget. Dapat nating alamin kung tama ba o mali ang ating paggamit sa mga gadgets. Nakabubuti ba ang gagawin ko sa aking sarili at sa aking kapwa?
     Kaya dapat mapanuri tayo sa paggamit ng mga gadgets. Ang mga gadgets ay may mga mabuting epekto at meron din namang masamang epekto. Dapat nating pag-isipan mabuti ang bawat hakbang at gagawin kung ito ba ay tama o hindi. Ika nga nila sa Ingles, "Think before you click!"

Reading is the Key to Success

     "Books are the quietest and most constant of friends; they are the most accessible and wisest of counselors, and the most patient of teachers" - Charles W. Elio.

     This month we are celebrating the English month with the theme, "Pagbasa: Susi sa Magandang Kinabukasan." This theme focuses on reading. Reading is fundamental to functioning in today's society. It is a vital skill in finding a good job. There are reports and memos which must be read and responded to. Poor reading skills increases the amount of time it takes to absorb and react in the workplace. Reading is very important because it develops the mind. Understanding the written word is one way the mind grows in its ability.

     A child's reading skills are important to their success in school as they will allow them to access the breadth of the curriculum and improve their communication and language skills. Reading can be a fun, wonderful and imaginative time for children, which opens doors to all kinds of new worlds for them.

     "The pen is mightier than the sword." Ideas written down have changed the destiny of men and nations for better or worse. We need to read and research to build on the good ideas and expose the bad ideas before they bring devastation and destruction. By reading, we can be armed in this never-ending, life-and-death struggle.

     Reading is very important. Truly that reading is the key for a better future. The fact of the power of written ideas communicated through reading is a foundational reason why some governments oppose free and honest communication. The more we read, the more we are educated and the more we discover new things. So, drop everything and read.

Second Grading Reflection

     This grading has been a remarkable and amazing grading. Many challenges came and we surpassed them. This grading was amazing and I have enjoyed more. I enjoyed this second grading with my classmates. In the subject TLE, I have learn many concepts and ideas.

     Many concepts were taught to us. One of the concepts I knew is the internet access. In the internet access, it is divided into two. Now, all of us are bloggers. These are the Local Area Network (LAN) and Wireless Broadband Access. Next is creating our own web design. And also creating html for the web design. And also, we continued to publish more articles. The challenge is that I am slow in typing. And also, I haven't finished the exercises. Through the help of our teacher in TLE, Mrs. Vera Cruz I was able to surpass these challenges. And to my fellow classmates for teaching me the right thing to do and on what to do.

     I will continue to post in my blog account. I will continue to become a blogger. I will also continue to have the references below my article. I will apply all the concepts our teacher had taught. I will continue to make html for our own web design. This grading has been an amazing and good journey.

Building a World of Universal Rights and Dignity

     United Nations was founded on October 24, 1945. This month of October, the United Nations Month is celebrated. The theme for this month is "Coming together with those furthest behind build an inclusive world of universal rights and dignity." The headquarters of the United Nations is in New York City, New York. The President for UN today is Maria Fernanda Espinosa.

     The commemoration of the International Day for the Eradication of Poverty will take place on October 17, 2018. This year marks the 70th anniversary of the proclamation of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. It is important to recall the fundamental connection between extreme poverty and human rights. The International Day for the Eradication can strongly complement such initiatives. The United Nations aims to eradicate and end poverty around the world. It also aims to give the rights of every person. Nowadays, the rights of a person is not given.

     The creation of United Nations is a good way to help every country in the world. To help each other and build strong bonds and connections. I hope that the United Nations will surely end poverty. And also to give every person their rights. Happy United Nations Month!

Filipinos: Strong and Happy


     Resilience is the ability to become strong, healthy, or successful again after something bad happens. The Philippines is situated in the Pacific Ring of Fire. As expected, many natural disasters like earthquakes are experienced. It is also beside the Pacific Ocean where most of the typhoons were formed there. Because of those disasters, Filipinos become resilient. But, does being a resilient a good trait or characteristic Filipinos should have?

     Despite the staggering impact from Typhoon Yolanda in the Philippines, especially Tacloban, in November 2013 and the 7.2 magnitude Bohol Earthquake just weeks before that, the country managed to sustain its economic momentum as its Growth Domestic Product (GDP) finished the year up by a rate of 7.2%. Filipinos have repeatedly been touted as reilient, ever happy, and even bulletproof. Even in the poorest typhoon-hit areas, it only takes a day or two for people to start rebuilding their homes. We Filipinos want to turn the negative into a positive all at once. This is a wonderful trait to have, to be self-reliant and to be a positive thinker. Independence and self-reliance are all fine and good, except that Filipinos know how much we pay our taxes and we know where that money really goes. The good part is we make our way and even earn a living.

     Being resilient is a trait one must have. The resiliency of Filipinos is a trait that we are very proud of. We always smile even during and after a disaster. No one can pull us down. We are Filipinos. We smile even our toughest problems. We smile no matter what happens. Proud to be a Filipino!
