A Day after Today!

                Initiating my future is going faster and faster, synchronizing with modern technologies and advance practice of life. They say that we the current youth or youngsters of this generation is the owner of modern world, we are responsible for a better future.

                Big question floating on my mind on how can I start to build my future? When and where?

                Every time I stood up on my bed every morning I always wondering the best future a man can have. Going to school makes my mind on how to make good decisions in life. What would be my standing after 10 to 15 years? I am seeing my own world after so many years successful and reach all my aspirations in life.

                Simple ambitions I am beholding and building, like be the best Engineer and made projects that highly appreciated by the society, having a family that could love me even eternity comes and also living friends and parents besides me to give me smiles on my lips whenever disappointments occur.

I believe nothing is impossible, nothing is difficult even beyond imagination when you start to reach you goals today.

Reflection!!

My high school career is nearer to end, but the memories we gathered with each other will last forever. Sad to say that we are leaving our Alma Mater for the next few months and another chapter of our lives will come along and it is more harder, our college life. High school life is the best studying time than elementary and college because we are collecting new friends in the high school life.

                But as we go through the saddest part of this post, let me recall the things that shaped me into better person this third grading period. Winning competitions like speech choir is one way of enhancing my shy type with someone or to a crowd. Many things I’ve learned in this grading period like respect others and listen to the one who leads and more importantly how to control myself and have discipline.

                I promised to myself, to make better changes on my attitudes. Hope it will work. . . 

Kapatang nak ti Iloco!

Over 300 sq. km of the area of the Philippines, many islands occupying the country and so many dialects are being use every day of our lives by communicating to someone.

Iloco dialect is much known on the North of Philippines; usually using this dialect is the Ilocanos. Ilocanos is very reach in many things but the most important is the dialect we are using. Many had tried to use Iloco but only some can pronounce it clearly with nice accent and proper intonation, this is only signifying that Iloco dialect is very unique.

2012! New Me. . . .

New Year, my favorite holiday, is one of the most celebrated days in the world. The day is shaped by different customs and traditions. Each culture celebrates this holiday in its own unique way. Bantay, Ilcos Sur which is my birthplace and a memorable place. This is a place where all my childhood memories came from. The city has its own way to celebrate New Year.

         The people start to prepare for the holiday at least one month in an advance. The preparation begins by buying presents, decorating houses, and making new costumes. Obviously the holiday would not be complete without a symbol of New Year which transcended from generation to generation, the New Year tree, the unique tree having million small needles and staying green throughout the year.

        New Year, which is one of the exciting things for children and adults, is the object that you can see in every house during the holiday. The whole family takes participation in decorating a tree, with toys, candies and different New Year’s lights. 

Christmas is LOVE!

                        Breezes of air are running everyone’s home signifying the very special day of the year the birth of Our Lord Jesus Christ telling to give honor and always remember Him. Its normal seeing children going house-to-house, singing a joyful songs and asking for a little amount of money, even the temperature is low they do this to give happiness.

            A very common doings of every home is to gather themselves completely having shared a very special moment with each other. Gift giving is another highlight of Christmas because signifying a good-hearted to share their blessings to others. But the most important to think during Christmas not the gifts, noche Buena or even the vacation to have relaxation yet it is the love of people to others and most especially love to Jesus and remember Him in this occasion. Love I think is the best gift to receive by a man.

            True essence of Christmas is to Love others, take good care of them, share and more. These is the way to commit happiness and enjoy this every year’s occasion.
