First of Last

I have learned a lot since I’ve been studying but still, I happen to bump with series of discoveries and new learning. And as I stop from running, I often observe differences from being like this to like that.

I’m a teenager but before pondering ICT, I am not that good in surfing the net. And as a product of this consideration, I became more knowledgeable about this kind of stuff.

During my 3^rd Year High School life, I expected too much. I mean, I was having difficulties last year. So, I thought that my last year at Ilocos Sur National High School would be more unmanageable. But I believe that this school year has lesser pressures. Well, I just can say this because this is just the start, and I can’t pretend that I have already encountered much embarrassments. Studying ICT requires me to be more of what a teen is. Addicted to computers, Internet, and other technological discourses. And it’s been hard for me to cope up with these.

To be obsessively addicted to computer software is not the only way for me to fit and surpass these challenges. I listened to my teacher every time she discusses and I think that’s enough to have the perfect knowledge needed to survive from these stimulating works or problems. I also inquire from my understanding classmates. That’s what I’ve done and going to do for the upcoming periods.

Moving on, I will be more responsible with my studies and requirements. Unlike now, I was just doing this in last minute rush. I promise I’d be more punctual in doing these.

       

SONA for the "BOSSES"

Every president of every respected country must report his on-going projects and plans together with his significant achievements. This is a part of his duty as the leader of an institution, to inform his men that he had already started making the way to success.

Last July 23, 2012, Philippine President Benigno Simeon Cojuanco Aquino III delivered his 3^rd State of the Nation Address at the Batasan Pambansa Complex, Quezon City, to his bosses. Many of his projects and proposals according to him have already been approved and most of them were successfully implemented. He proudly said that the government has already paved the way to progress and this will continue until the Pearl of the Orient Seas reach the very apex. He included in his SONA the significant things that he and his company had done for us to escape from being tucked with poverty and corruption. One of these is the controversial impeachment of the Former Chief Justice Renato Corona. Another is the successful implementation of the K-12 Education Program in which the First Year High School Students of this school year will be affected. He added that this program will help our country diminish the number of unlearned Filipinos. But I am not really sure if he is very sure about that. I don’t think he had thought that this will instead multiply the number of uneducated persons because families would find this harder to budget their income. This will just let them decide that their children will no longer study because it will just increase their expenses. I don’t think that’s a good idea Mr. President.
    Some consider this latest SONA as the best of all. But for me, nothing was the best, nothing happened. Well something happened, but, where are the extracted products of these? I cannot feel the essence of his speech. Yes, yes, I do appreciate what he had already contributed but it is just not enough especially that he is already in the middle of his career. If that is the fastest he can do, then progress will never meet us.

Inside-System Business

Some of us were born lucky, some were not financially. That is maybe the reason why most of the population usually got sick because of improper intake of food or can’t even eat three times a day. That is the time when malnutrition occurs.

          In connection to the July’s Nutrition Month Celebration with the theme “Pagkain ng Gulay Ugaliin, Araw-Araw Itong Ihain”, Ilocos Sur National High School conducts various activities to promote better health for everyone.  Interested students from school are invited to join these activities in order for them to have more of the knowledge needed to determine the proper way of eating foods for a brighter future. These activities include public speaking, poster-making, food fest and cook fest, and other health-related contests.

          A person must always include vegetables in his everyday meal. This could help his body complete the nutrients needed for longer survival. The vitamins and the minerals that these vegetables could also give will contribute for him not to catch different kinds of diseases that can be gotten if these will not travel in our body every day. If a person especially a kid will not even have a cup of vegetables every meal, his body resistance could easily weakens every time he performs lots of fitness activities. These must be considered to have a successful health and life.

          Teens like us should never ignore our health. Even though you are wealthy if you don’t have beautiful body figure inside and out, money is useless. As they say, “Health is Wealth”, and we should treat our inside system the way we treat our physical ones. In my own perspective in life, health is not just only the wealth; health is the business to achieve the best life we could ever have.
