New Year, New Me

Farewell, 2014! Hello, 2015! Happy New Year!

Roman Catholic countries celebrate New Year’s Day on January 1. Traditionally, the day has been observed as a religious feast, but in modern times, the arrival of the New Year has also become an occasion for spirited celebration and the making of personal resolutions about future conduct. Speaking of resolutions, I’m going to share you some.

Last year, I feel unweary. Because I did some nonsense things and that made me not totally irresponsible. So, with this year, I’ll start to schedule some fun time everyday. Stop overthinking. Let myself off the hook. Remember my true worth. Take my dreams seriously and prepare myself to take risks. Keep my sense of humor. Appreciate all that I have. Be kind to myself and relax more in making all of this happen.

Oftentimes, my heart is choked with grief because I was so in love with a “nonsense” person. I was hurt but the good thing is that I had learned from my mistakes, that it is more painful to keep yourself attracted to that person when you really know it will not happen. Instead of falling for that person someone, I’ll make it up to be a more responsible and studious students.

I’m a grown up now and I know I’ll make it better. My life goes on and I should be stronger. Got to move on and live my life nicer. Because I know that the New Year is here for a whole new me.

Reflection

        

        Goodbye, Third Quarter! Hey, Fourth Quarter!

        I regret to say this but the Graduation Day is fast approaching. It is really sad to ponder, right?

        At this juncture, I would dare to share to you some of the noteworthy experiences during the third quarter. Those hectic-schedule many projects, homework and complicated lessons really made me feel weary.

        Finally I am looking forward for his quarter to be better than the past quarters. And, I will definitely do my best to be a more responsible and studious student.

Essence of Christmas

As typical little children do, I would dream on Christmas mourn with all those gifts and toys I knew, I’d find. But as the years go by, I came to realize that Christmas is not merely about material things and I came to ponder that the greatest gift of all is that baby-born one blessed night- Jesus Christ.

We are the reason that He gave His life. We are the reason behind His suffering and death. He gave all He could give to show us the reason to live. How great is He!

Christmas is about His glory. Christmas is about His grace. It is the season which reminds us that God is with us.

Give love everyday! Let’s whole-heartedly share our blessings to our fellow. Merry Christmas! Stay blessed, children of God.

Climate Change

Are You Truly Ready? Then Act Now!

       

   Are you ready? This has been an all-too-familiar question we are often asked to ascertain our degree of readiness and preparedness in anything. The question sometimes finds us staggered and dumbfounded because we are simply not ready even with the question itself.

   Being ready is not just about waiting for a disaster to happen and deal with it as it happens. One very important aspect of preparedness which we must often forget is being able to do something to stop these things from worsening.

Who could be ready during this era of consequence? And, as we face the changing climate and its pernicious effects on our lives, when can we say we are ready? Certainly, knowing what we should be ready for is an advantage we have over the other creations. In addition, it is the beginning of our salvation from human extinction.

The climate is changing and the clock is ticking. Rich or poor, young or old, we are all susceptible to the life- threatening effects of climate change. No one will be spared. No one is exempted. Let us do something. Let us not wait for tragedies to happen before we act. Let us prepare now! Let us make a commitment- to achieve a balanced ecology for the present and future generations.

Outpouring Hearts and Minds Through Literacy and English Proficiency

ENGLISH: A COMPETITIVE LANGUAGE

English is the universal language, it is widely used. English proficiency, the ability to speak, read and write in English, is significant. With this, we can have fun relating to diverse people anywhere, anytime. Now, would you dare to be an English proficient?

          While we use English, we will realize how our gift of knowledge does wonder. We will be able to express our thoughts, ideas and feelings freely and clearly. We will develop self-confidence necessary in interacting with people around us. And as we deal and communicate with them, we will be able to practice the proper communication skills and values. These skills and values will make us not only a responsible and reproductive individuals but also a globally competitive Filipino for times and places.

          How can someone be an English proficient? To be considered truly proficient, one should have advanced abilities in all the areas of communication. This means that the learners must not only be linguistically competent, having the knowledge of linguistic and related communicative conventions that speakers must have to create and sustain conversational cooperation.

          So use English language wisely and conformingly. J

EQUAL RIGHTS, EQUAL OPPORTUNITIES

          Equal rights, equal opportunities. I do believe that this has been an all-too-dream we are often longing.

        There is a powerful being who created us. And, I strongly believe that in His eyes and heart, equality must exist among His masterpiece- the people.

        Equality does not imply that all men are exactly the same. Not all men, for example, can be good musicians and architect. But with equality, all men will have an equal opportunity to nurture their individual talents. We can’t all have the bountiful riches. We can’t all have stunning looks. But, we all have the right and opportunity to live our own lives to the fullest.

        We all have equal rights; consequently, we all have equal opportunities. Equality must conquer the Earth in order for us to attain unity, peace and the like.

My Teacher my Hero

I Salute You All!!

            “Teachers open windows to the world for their students by giving them the tools and desire to discover their fellow humans. It is through this discovery that we learn one of the most important lessons in life- we have more in common than we have differences”

         Teaching is the noblest profession. Everyone has been inspired by a great teacher. Exceptional teachers open our eyes to the world and provide us with the knowledge necessary to succeed. They let us conquer our dreams in life and letting us to learn by our own ways.

            Teachers don’t only teach theories to us but they are also sources of moral teachings. Inside and outside the campus, they are our models. In relation to health and wellness, they are expected to contribute and give a good state of both mental and physical health. Another, our teachers are also the treasures in our society because while they are teaching, they are letting us discover what’s inside that treasure- the knowledge.

         Teachers have helped us a lot in the contribution of our success and in the development of ourselves in turning us to be better individuals. I’ll surely cherish them and will always be treasured in my heart. I salute them because without teachers, there will be no Nurses, Engineers, Pilots, Accountants and many more.
