Just The Beginning

Yeah. Life has a beginning to an end. As we end our third year high school life, we enter a new chapter of our life. July 1 is the start of classes and also the start of the First Grading Period. t first, i fell like, "booooooooooring !" haha :D but as time pass by, I'm enjoying it.


I've learned a lot especially in Physics and Mathematics. You know I really hate Math so it's a miracle for me to listen to the teacher and participate in solving those operose problems. When I was in third year, I honestly don't know how to solve the projectile. You know? How to find the range, the time it takes to travel and blah. blah. blah. all those kind of stuffs.. But then, I did not just learn academic stuffs.. I also learned how to grasp those challenges with happiness and strength. How to forgive those who hurt and betray you.


I know I'll learn more things and stuffs next grading. Learning is continuous, right? :D

SPEAK TO ME IN ENGLISH OR FILIPINO WITH KINDNESS



"Kindly speak to me in English or Filipino." You can read this I.D. tags being use by the English club officers and some students of Ilocos Sur National High School.

Recently, the English Club relaunch the Speak to me in English or Filipino campaign. What's the importance of knowing how to speak in English and/or Filipino properly and with kindness???

We all know that English is the universal language and Filipino is our national language. As a Filipino citizen, we MUST learn to speak in English and/or Filipino with kindness. Using this two language properly and with kindness makes us stand out among others. Today, the job offered here in the Philippines is limited or less work-pay so most of us go abroad. We can't go to other country by not knowing how to speak in English. I mean, you can't speak with the foreigner in our own dialect because they'll not understand it (unless they know how to speak in our dialect).

We must start speaking in English and/or Filipino NOW so that we can be competitive with others in the future. Don't care if your grammar is wrong, just speak with English or Filipino and you'll get used to it; and if someone corrected you, don't be angry, thank him instead for another lesson learned.



Be Happy, Be Healthy :)

Nowadays, we can read in the magazine, newspaper, and in the internet the different diseases that's sprawling all over the globe. Recently, there's that A(H1n1) from Mexico that affected the world, including the Philippines. Some died, some are still suffering.

Due to poor hygiene and unhealthy lifestyle, most of us is suffering from diseases. Common colds, influenza, fever, cardiovascular diseases, respiratory diseases and cancer are the most common among them. Not cleaning our surroundings, dirty water/food and not observing proper diet are some of the causes why we suffer from lifestyle diseases.

Because of financial problem, many of us die for the reason of not having enough money to buy their medicine. To prevent being such, we should observe healthy lifestyle such as eating nutritious foods, drinking plenty of water, cleaning our surroundings, observing proper diet and we must also avoid using those vices.

By being healthy, we can be happy. How? If we are healthy, we can do things that's making us happy. We can do the things we want to do if we're healthy. So what are you waiting for? Observe healthy lifestyle NOW. :)
