What Did I Learn This Second Grading?

   

 What did I learn? What did I learn? What did I learn?
       Our second grading lesson is amazing! It's all about HTML tags and such. I was able to make web pages. I already know how to put images , and hyperlinks on it. I was also able to change the text's font style , size, and color.
        I found our lesson quite easy because it's awesome. Really. I enjoyed our lesson. But I still have to train myself in making such things.

ISNHS INTRAMURALS 2014

     

A crowd in the gymnasium. Crowd around the athletic field. Many buildings were temporarily decorated. Screaming students all over the campus. Some students were in a sports attire, sweaty. What is happening?

            September 18, the intamurals officially started. Well, to be honest it wasn't that exciting at first. It was like just an ordinary day for us because in the morning, we had our classes. Then at the afternoon, the opening of the intramurals. The players had a parade all the way to the gymnasium. Then the rest of the program was held at the gymnasium. Nothing exciting. The players had kinda sworn for a clean and friendly game. Selcted students per year level had a performance, the so-called Dance Revolution.

           On the second day, the game started with a rain. When I arrived at school, many students surrounded the athletic field to watch the soccer. It was cool to watch to play soccer when it's raining. The game went out more challenging. When I arrived at our classroom, I spotted my non-CAT Officer classmates sitting, watching, playing. I can see the boredom in their faces. I got out to check some more interesting games. We stayed at the gymnasium for the basketball to support the seniors. I used all my voice to cheer for them. At least it was worth it. Seniors won! Woohhooo! Well, that was the best part of the intramurals for me, yet. After the game, we enjoyed the rain. We actually played under the rain. We were dripping wet. It was so much fun. And that's where the weekday ended. The next day was supposedly the third day of the intramurals. But unfortunately, a typhoon hit us. But at least we had time to enjoy and feel the essence of the intramurals.

         Incomplete but fun. That's how I describe our intramurals for this year. But I am expecting more exciting intramurals for the following years. Even though I will already leave our school next year.

Teachers: The Stair Rail to Success

          “The mediocre teacher tells. The good teacher explains. The superior teacher demonstrates. The great teacher inspires.”― William Arthur Ward

       Do you want to become a lawyer? A doctor? A nurse? An author? An accountant? Or maybe a teacher? Someone's here to help you; our beloved teachers. The stair rail to success. That's what our teachers are. They guide us in every step in our way to the top.

We won't make it to the top without their almighty help. Chalk pieces, blackboard, paper, pen, and books. With these, we're all ready for school. But it's like something's missing. We can't learn with just these things. There's one who would complete the set. The teacher. With their important words and captivating writings, we are all the way to the top. The first step they say. They impart their knowledge to all of us, their students. Every single word is a step towards success. Mathematics, Science, English, TLE, MAPEH, Filipino. Life would be so lame without these. Thanks to our teachers, we are able to learn such things. As we stay in school for about ten hours every day of weekdays, they stand as our second parent. They don't just teach us scientific termsor mathematical values, they also look after us. They treat us like their own childen. Being teacher and parent at the same time is a very difficult task. Especially now, with some stubborn students. Sometimes, we're making their work even harder with our hardheads. But look at them. They have the longest patience you'll ever see. Many admire them, incuding us students, for their extraordinary skills.

           Endless patience, words full of knowledge, and many more. No one possesses these but our teachers. They are true heroes. For that, they deserve a salute and endless thank you's.

IMMUNATION

        IMMUNATION.It is a play on words on ammunition and immunization. The Science Month Celebration's theme would like our science clubbers to be armed/ to be immune against diseases through imparting knowledge about disease, how they spread, etc. Its goal is not only the science clubbers that benefit from this knowledge but also the school and communities and thus leading to national wellness.

             Nowadays, many disease were already known/ discovered. Many were already spread all over the world. Many people had been the victims. Now, it's time to act. No more watching people die because of these terribe diseases. No more sitting on the couch watching television or listening to radios or reading newspapers about the new discovered disease, about the great number of victims, about the undiscoverable cure for these diseases. Now, it's time to stand and impart to the citizens the knowledge you have about diseases, how they spread, and importantly, how to prevent it. With this simple way of imparting knowledge, you can help lessen health problems. Let's not wait for millions of people be the victim of such diseases. Let's now act for the future. Let's help one another. Protecting one takes everyone.

            Stop. Stand. Know. Share. Help. Cooperate. Fight. Defend. Rise.

Modern Day Heroes: They Make The Difference

          

      HERO.A person of distinguished courage or ability, admired for brave deeds and noble qualities. One of the best words that describes hero. Don't it only exist in movies or stories? Can someone become one? Can someone fly to save people? Have the keen eye to detect where dangers are? Have excellent ears to hear people shouting for help? Do you believe in these hero stuffs? Well, you should. But not the hero with supernatural abilities. But with extraordinary abilities. Let me introduce to you our Modern Day Heroes.

         Upon hearing the magic word, Heroes, many would think about people with cape. People who are incredibly strong that can stop a running train. People who can lift a pack of people. People who can travel in a blink of an eye. Well, these heroes were born through imagination for entertainment. But don't be upset because we have our heroes. Our true heroes. Not born from imagination, but born, literally, to save many people, for real. But not in a supernatural way. To save save in an extraordinary way. Presenting, our modern day heroes: the military men.

       Protecting a nation or a country is not easy. It takes one's life to do this. You have to be willing to sacrifice this one life to protect many lives. They chose to leave their own families to do what they promised to do: to protect our nation or country. Being away from family takes a big gut. Their family is a part of their life. But because of their love for their family and country, they chose to take the very dreadful path. They had to travel miles and miles to go to their designations. They had to drill for preparations. They had to avoid complaining for the shortage of food, lack of sleep, and lack of personal hygiene. With these unbearable things, they didn't chose to find another job because of the love they offer to our country. These things were done wholeheartedly by the military men.

Doing good deeds not just for yourself but to everyone deserves to be recognized. They deserve to be called HEROES. Let's all salute for them.

Filipino: Wika ng Pagkakaisa

             Naging kagawian na ng mga Pilipino ang pagdiriwang ng isang napakahalagang selebrasyon ng ating bansa tuwing buwan ng Agosto, ang Buwan ng Wika. Sa taong ito, ang buwan ng wika ay may temang, "Filipino: Wika ng pagkakaisa". Ang isinusulong ng temang ito ay ang paggamit ng ating sariling wika bilang intrumento ng pagkabuklod-buklod at pagkakaisa ng ating bayang Pilipinas.
               Tunay ngang isang napakaepektibong instrumento ang wika sa pagkakaisa ng mga mamamayan. Walang Pilipinas na mapayapa at nagkakaunawaan kung walang wikang nagiging tulay sa mga ito. ang wika ay may napakalaking papel sa ating bansa. Ito ang nagpapanatili ng kapayapaan ng ating bansa. Sigurado na akong maraming nakakaalam nito kasi napatunayan nam natin ito.
               Ang kapangyarihan ng wika ay talagang kakaiba.

Reflection

                 

                    In this grading period, it may be the start of the school year but I really learned a lot of things in our ICT class. I was able to recognize the people behind the progress of the widely used internet. And I can now determine some things about web log. And of course, I was able to make a blog like this.
                   But behind these things that I learned, I quite had some trouble in making blogs. I had some problem in the URL in making blogs. So far, this is the only problem that I encountered.But I had faced this problem. I eagerly learned how to do this properly.
                    Moving on to another three grading periods, I promise myself to do the best I can to do our requirements properly and if possible, with excellence.

Preparedness for the Calamities and Malnutrition

                 The Nutrition Month is celebrated every July of the year and is celebrated in every school. This year's Nutrition Month celebration has a theme, " Kalamidad Paghandaan, Gutom at Malnutrisyon Agapan."
                  Earthquakes, tsunamis, and strong typhoons such as Typhoon Perya, Ondoy, Yolanda, and the most recent Typhoon Glenda had already hit our country. These calamities destroyed many properties, and stole many lives and natural resources. Many Filipinos suffered during and after these calamities. They lost their beloved ones and experienced shortage. these sufferings kind of hinder the progress of our country, and affect the health of people in a negative way. How? Due to sarcacity, people suffer hunger or starvation and may lead to malnutrition or maybe even death. But these terrible things can be prevented through many ways. the very first and important thing should be done is to take care and conserve the natural resources. Don't be greedy or very abusive in using these resources like there's no tomorrow. Think of the future, if these resources will be overused now, will we have anything to have when calamities come? Just like in the story of the grasshopper and the ant. The grasshopper just played around when the sun was still bright, while the ant worked hard to earn foods to be ready if the rain comes. But when it rained, the grasshopper didn't had anything to eat but the ant had stocks of food that he earned when the weather was still good. So, this story kinda reflect in our lives.
                     This month's theme helps us realize that we must prepare for the calamities that may come and prevent the most frightened thing that may happen to us, starving and malnutrition.

SONA 2014

          In the SONA, President Benigno Simeon Aquino III discussed matters regarding to the country's economy, public works, education, and many more.
         According to him, all the funds went to the places they are supposed to go. There are new fighter jets, helicopters and a landing ship. there are also new weaponry and arsenal for soldiers and police officers alike. Respondents and relief workers were quick during disaster situations. The education has been widespread all over the country that our natives are now sent to school.  This administration deserves a lot of credit for what it has done for the country. It is now an investment rate, the economy is flourishing, and there are no bloody conflicts or kidnappings. Plans for the road development and improvements,housing, schools, and other infrastractures are underway.
         In his speech, he clarified all the issues that are being thrown to the government. He said that he is doing his very best to make a great progress in our country. Being a president is not an easy thing, so let us understand his situation.

His Excellency Benigno Simeon Aquino III
President of the Republic of the Philippines

Sir:
         Greetings to you our dear president! I do have lot of things to ask and tell you about our country issues. Especially about your accomplishments in your term, the problems our country's facing.
          First and foremost, I would like to congratulate you for maintaining our country's peacefulness. Honestly sir, I don't like how you are leading our country that much. Many problems came to struggle our country. I know that you were trying to solve those problems, but I can't see any progression. Just for example, the Napoles case. I can't see you making any action. Aren't you concerned about the stolen money of our country? I thought we are going to what you said Tuwid na daan? You promised that our country will make a great progression under you. But I don't see any progression. Some Filipino citizens are experiencing shortages. What I just want to clarify sir is please make a more effective action that will make our country a worthy place to live in. I'm sorry for the words sir. I just want you to know how I see our country.
             Have a good day sir!


                                                                                                                    Respectfully yours,
