            Our province’ culture, traditions, beliefs, and others are widely known to us and are being more widely disseminated around. This we know how the literature of Ilocos Sur is very rich and adherent to us. Even though it is now considered a thunderbird, still we do those we have in the most important and most celebrated event through the years, Kannawidan Festival.
            Perhaps, you reader are aware this Kannawidan. From the origin of our history, we are doing the things we, Ilocanos, are used to until now, which we call Kannawidan. Things before maybe sort of significantly antiquated to now. But what keep Ilocos Sur alive and widely known for its natures are the cultures, traditions, and other practices we yearn.

Coup d' oiel

                
Time is really being parsimonious. How could it be this utmost chapter that I am now enduring myself? Well, that’s life. It doesn’t always mean its morsel, no perks. No!
                This fourth grading period, I only had a glimpse to a known topic before which is all about the Photoshop. I had a little bit hesitation when I knew that we will be tackling this AgaiN, ‘cause before I am very poor with this on Second Year. But then, we started over the topic; from the basic fields like tools and its uses, then steps in certain editing. Somehow, I managed to hent this vest knowledge of Photoshop, I realized that it’s just quick and easy to use and do. I learned how to reverse images like beautiful/ handsome people to funny ones. It’s so fun exploring and getting busy with Photoshop.
                Photoshop will forever be a big part in my life. Although it was about more or less two weeks I lodged in the horizon of this ultimate Photoshop, I still was able to embrace its greatest, labyrinth things that I call for now. Short time I only had but I exited from it with fulfillment of this knowledge it gave me.

|CHANGE| IT STARTS WITH ME

     The past, present and the future are the chapters of life. Flaws were marked, likewise, the past can never be erased. Where I stand now, life shines against me giving the chances to do things well and, so quell reluctant things I do! Predictions or maybe even fortune-telling can be enunciated for the future, but responsibility is the only real and permanent thing I could do for a reason, change.
       Past. I’ve been through things that are good or bad. In the negative side, basically, this is the reason why I live still until now. I can say that the past has been a variant passage of life. There are these things I dwelt for good, on the other hand, for bad. Now, the bad things in the past pushed me until this day because they inculcate me to change now, a change for the future.
       For my sake and ease, change must start with me not from others. Or, for the most in this society or in this world, I must start the change. First, with me. I must start the change regarding my values and characteristics towards others, physical attributes and others. In general, I must start changing myself to a better one. Second, with the most. For me to be specific, the unstable problems nowadays are global destruction and crisis. Now I say, everyone is responsible youth. You and I can start the change for our sake. Global warming, wildfires, icecaps melting, earthquakes, tsunamis, typhoons and pollution; we are the only host to where we exist. We’ve gone so far to cause destruction on our own. Let us all do the ways unceasingly to possibly change our world to betterment and, so, we live anew.
       Anytime, anywhere, anyone like me can start the change. No matter what happens, even if I will get shattered resisting the strongest obstacles, after all I did my part in making and fighting for the change.

MY DREAM | MY FUTURE

     From now, I am dreaming myself adrift along. And with that, I better prepare myself in fulfilling another attribute for the next journey. This is a good perspective for me to reality because I become more enthusiastic and push forth myself to it.Thus, it's a good way in seizing something for a bright future. I may encounter weaknesses but I'll never let anything in this world pull me down by these, instead I'll make that perceived weakness into strength to be successful.

     Aftermath the difficulties, challenges and trials in my educational journey I will have realized life is beautiful, though full of ups and downs, nevertheless, I will have reaped what I sew, hence, without those my life wouldn't be that great. "Life is by chance," some tend to say. But for me I defy what they say, which is very untrue; you are the one and only making your own fortune.

     Twenty years living in school would be an eon suffering. Determination, courage, strength, discipline, optimism, faith and hard work are the values I have will be my backpack. I will have finished marine transportation at NYK-TDG Maritime Academy, then Captain, so far. I will be controlling ships someday along the sea. Maybe, maneuvering to haul nets of fiches or crabs, or manage ships for transporting goods and people. So, Ship Ahoy!

     Whatever dreams you are fulfilling, do everything good and right you know. You will become someday you are dreaming for. Maybe not the exactly time you expect but someday. Like me, I am confident that I will become a Captain someday.

New Year.. New ME

           As we prepared celebrating and welcoming for a new, prosperous and happy new year, like putting delicious, delicate and savory foods and wine dine, scattering coins on the floor, opening all the window panes, dressing in the new bough ten clothes, even getting dressed to kill, and everything, at the same time, we, of course, had prepared ourselves for a New One in a New Year.

          Every one of us tended buying lucky tokens and ang paos before year 2014 will have come as believed to bring luck and good fortune to a new life. For me, on the other hand, it’s just simple and basic. I just had to set myself for something commitment. Set myself for a new one. What came to my mind is that how and in what way I will set myself for a new one. First is that my physical aspect. Being physically fit keeps you healthy. Attaining this aspect by doing more exercises and some sports builds up body and even increases resistance. I have to do these things so that I will always be prepared for anything regarding physical attributes. Second is that being optimistic. What stresses people much is that having negative perspectives. This is futile for us to spend time with. So, I will think positive in any ways so that everything will be easy and fine and in proper direction. Third is that being more benign. I will be more gentle some things and to people. I will be gentle to talk and treat people and I will be using my accessories and devices gently. And I will be more kind to those who are kind or not to me. I will give and share anything I can to those who is in need; just a helping hand or money matters, if so.

          Those are just my commitment to set myself for a new one this New Year. It’s not so many as other people do but I will be probable to commit those things. It doesn’t matter how few or how many commitment to take a person completely new. As long as you know you are good the previous year and will be permanent, live anew by committing to other things you can be. New Year has come, have you ever witnessed the New Me yet?

REFLECTION 3

                   Third Grading Period should be remarkable. I significantly learned HTML more. I thought HTML would only be until textual work but images are present that give life to my works.
                    I was able to seize well HTML since ICT was moved to 1-2 PM. Things like HTML works to be done were figured out to be finished at time. In HTML, I learned how to put images, format font face, size and alignment, linking an html file to another and everything. I managed to finish all the activities and even my blogger. 
                   The beauty and amazement of HTML made me realize that life is like this when discovered. That if you managed to make HTML works enthusiastically, you will see more your work worthy than what you expect. So, I will continue forward to discover new coverage of ICT.
