Reflections

                This third grading period is so great; it is full of challenges because of those activities that Ma’am Vera Cruz had given us. Her teaching style is so great she let us explore those activities with ourselves that makes us so independent.
Ma’am is a very patient teacher, she only scold us when we are already so naughty that we make her head pop out. Even if her handwriting is like chicken scratch like mine we still love her. Thank you for the fun ma’am.
As we get ready for the last grading period of this school year i expect more from my classmates and teacher.

New Years Change

Every time New Year’s comes, some people make their very own new year’s resolution. They are hoping that they will change for good, for them to celebrate the new year of their lives. But is there a new year, new me?
                This new year I don’t have any of those New Year’s resolution because I don’t think that it will be granted. All I want is to change myself for good with my own little ways without the influence of other people. I would like to change those awful descriptions given to me be the people around me. I would like to prove that I am not just a naughty guy they know who is sometimes called mischief maker.
                It is really hard to change but nothing is impossible when we think it is possible. One thing is for sure, that there is new me this new year.

We are Ilocano’s

                We are born in to have many dialects because of the width of our world; most of us are used to our very own dialects. I am an Ilocano and there is nothing wrong about this. But are we still using it?
                Because of the modernization of our country, the Philippines, there are so many people specially the rich ones that teach their young English first instead of our dialect. The result, those children will no longer know our dialect.  If this will happen we may forget our dialect in the very near future.
                Our ancestors made this dialect for us to have our own and that not to rely on others. In other words, this made our history so we must not forget it.
                Our dialect may not be as great as other when spoken but let us remember that we may be not here when there is no Ilocano so let’s be proud of this..

Christmas in Our Hearts

                Every Christmas we the Filipinos always spend it by giving gifts to each and everyone, it is all because we believe that giving is better to receive. We also believe that this is the true essence of Christmas. But do we really understand the true essence of Christmas?
                As a student, I have my point of view of the essence of Christmas in my different understanding. It is more than giving, it is more than being with our families but it is more about giving love on Christmas day. We all know that the son of the lord Jesus Christ is born in this day. He, the Lord gave his only son to come and pay for our sins because He loves us. If you still don’t understand love is the greatest gift of all so lets us remember that we are to love each other.
                We may not receive so many gifts, at least we can say that there are so many people giving gifts to us, and those gifts can be simplified as one and it is called love.

How Can We Make Difference

                Difference, how can we define difference? Difference is the thing that never existed before, a meaning that came from my mind. But what does difference exactly mean? Can we make difference?
                The answer to this question can only be answered by own heart and mind, cause difference occur in when our personality changes. Literally change is always happening in this world; in fact this is the only thing permanent in this world.
                Actually making change is a part of correcting ones mistakes. Because it is not making difference if you always do the right  thing. For me I can make difference by changing my habits. This makes my personality unlike anybody else.

Equal Rights, Equal Opportunity

                 Discrimination, it is the biggest problem in our country right now. The division of the crowd into two decks, the poor and rich. The main cause of the inequality of rights in our community. But how can we do something about it?
                Every time I hear of the poor people being accused in the crimes that are actually not made by them, I feel so much pity. Because I know that that their rights are being violated. As a student we can do our very own little ways but first we must learn from our mistakes. Give chances to the people who made mistakes that affected you, in this way you are being fair to that people because everyone must be given second chances and also you are giving opportunity to correct his mistake.
                We can’t prevent any inequality happening in this world of ours but at least we can say, I’ve done my part you must do yours.
