Para sa Susunod na Henerasyon

  Napadako ako sa isang  lumang silid  aklatan at napako ang aking paningin sa isang larawan. Nabalot ng makakapal na alikabok at ang ugong ng mga lumang mesa na tila ba'y may mga taong  nagmamasid sa kapaligiran. Isang lumang libro ang umagaw  ng aking pansin may iba't-ibang disenyong hula ko'y gawa sa matigas na materyal at ang mga letra nito'y nakaukit sa gintong papel na pagkakamalan  mong isang diyamante sa sobrang kinang! Binuksan ko ito  at sumalubong ang labis na nakakasilaw na pahina na nagsasaad ng pamagat na  "Para sa Susunod na  Henerasyon".  Muli kong pinagana ang aking mapaglarong isipan at siniyasat ang mga natitirang mensahe ng aklat. Naka tala sa mga libro ang mga makasaysayang panitikan ng ating mga ninuno na nagmumula sa  iba't-ibang sulok ng bansa. Iba't-ibang wika ang nagamit ngunit ang pagkakaibahang ito ay lumikha ng isang napakagandang sining bunga ng mga malilikhaing isip ng ating mga ninuno.

Labis akong humanga sa kanilang katalinuhan noong nakita ko mismo sa aking mga mata ang kagandahan at ang perpektong pagkasulat ng  lumang alpabeto--ang baybayin. Ang Abakada, ang dahon at tinta  kasabay ng  paglipas ng mga kanilang pamana sapagkat ang mundo'y nabubulag  na sa mga pandayuhang mga wika at kultura. Sa pagbuklat ko ng susunod ng  pahina, tuluyang na ngang kumupas ang mga tinta nito  sapagkat hindi na naaalagaan.  Wala  na ngang nagpapayaman  at prumoproketa sa mga larawang  kupas sapagkat ang tao'y nakatuon na ang atensyon  sa uso at modernisasyon.  

Ngunit ang munting tinig ng taong nasa libro,  parang  hanging  bumubulong sa aking tabi, at  nagsasabing, ako ito, ang iyong Wikang tinalikuran. Ako ito, ang wikang iyong  pinagpalit at piniling sukuan.  At  higit sa  lahat,  ako   ito,  ang iyong  wikang minsan ng pinaglaban ng mga bayaning tuluyan nyong tinalikuran. Ako ito, ang iyong inang bayan. 

Bumalik ako sa ulirat at napagtanto kong, hindi lang sa buwan ng Agosto  dapat ipagyabong at ipagdiwang ang wikang Filipino kundi, sa pang araw-araw natin ay dapat itong ipagmalaki at gamitin. Matatawag  mo bang bansa ito kung ang mga wika  ay ginagaya lang  naman at hindi orihinal? Hindi. Imbis na ikahiya ito,  hinihikayat ko kayong  mga kapwa kong Filipino, na wag nating ikahiya bagkus ay ating ipagmalaki ang sariling atin. Ngayong buwan ng Wika, nawa'y pahalagahan natin ang ating sariling wika at sana ay gamitin  natin ang ating iba't-ibang wika para mapayaman ang ating  kultura. Sama-sama tayo sa isang bansang Filipino. Ikaw, sasama ka ba sa paglalayag?

Improving your Capabilities by expressing your Thoughts

I have learned that I should not be afraid to express my thoughts, my ideas and my knowledge through the reporting and writings we constructed. I gained new knowledge, applied it and living with it. Specially that writing is my number one passion. I acquired basic skills in blogs and I've learned to use my talent to earn. Being in the 10th grade wasn't easy at all.

During my stay on our subject, I was challenged to push myself into my limits and one of them was to memorize different persons and dates which is out of my interest. Being in a class with different talents and skills was hard to cope up since we are all have differences. 

I was able to survive these challenges by doing my best and applying my learning throughout our subject. I did my part as a student and was able to listen to my teacher. Pushing myself through my limits wasn't a help in coping up but, putting yourself together was a big help. 

Moving on to the next quarter, I believe that I will improve myself and will continue to learn. I will not stop learning because what I know is still young and my way of thinking is not yet as mature as others. I ought to make a difference and to continue what I've started.

A piece of Change

If people could see the impact of change then all of us could live in peace. If only those who lead us could see the importance of preparedness, then everyone won’t suffer poverty. If all of us has the willingness to prepare, then no one will die.

 Natural disasters couldn’t be avoided but we can prepare. We could surpass these if only we value the importance of alertness. It can lead us to change—preparedness could lead us to change. No more cry, moan and loss of love ones, craving for justice. None of this will ever happen again if we put our trust to ourselves. None of this will happen if we prepare rather than to blame. Prepare to save and to change. Prepare to lessen the 
number of deaths. If we do this, then all of us will be the greatest ambassador of change.

The theme fits the current situation of our country, we demand change but we don’t move. We continue to rally for it but we don’t contribute for change. Likewise, we should also consider everyone’s differences and shortcomings. Don’t blame the government for not taking part of change. Blame yourself for not doing anything for the change.

Not all can lead but all can serve, not all are push into office but all can make a contribution. Take part for the change, be prepared. Every breath is precious. Treasure it. Prepare for the change. Prevention is better than cure, thus, let’s all make a difference.

Earthquake drill: will it help us?

It cannot be denied that our country experiences active volcanisms and other geographical activities such as earthquakes, volcanic eruptions and such. Earthquake is everyone’s monster like enemy. The location of our country is along the Pacific Ring of Fire which is an area in the basin of the Pacific Ocean where large number of earthquakes occur. 

Conducting an earthquake drill can give benefit to all the people specially to the students who needs more attention in preparing for calamities. For us, in academe, it’s best to be prepared and ready for disasters because no one can predict when an earthquake may happen. Given the population of our school, it will never change the fact that stampede will occur. Thus, with proper  training and advance planning, everyone in school community can be prepared to respond in accordance to what’s happening during and after the occurrence of earthquake.

As we live on a country where earthquakes frequently occur, it’s best to include earthquake preparedness in overall emergency plan. Given the fact that earthquakes won’t and can’t be predicted, we should help each other’s hand to prepare the humankind for the safety of our students and teachers.

A Healthy Lifestyle: Push natin ‘to!

“Health is Wealth”. This is a familiar saying known worldwide. In connection to the Nutrition Month Celebration held every July, it’s important to know the benefits of having a healthy lifestyle.

Maintaining your body weight, as well as having proper exercise would help you avoid diseases like cardiovascular diseases and diabetes as well as other harmful conditions.

Nutrition Month Celebration reminds us to treasure our health and set a specific goal and routine on how we could improve our pattern of living. It’s not all about eating vegetables and fruits but it’s all about balancing your activities as well as food intake. During this activity, there are quizzes that could unlock our knowledge about the food and nutrients it              
carries. The different components of go, grow and glow could be our daily basis on how we could achieve a basic but healthy lifestyle. Following the Pinggang Pinoy can be also a basis on how much amount       of food could we take in.

Determining the level of percentage of a certain product would help us maintain our weight. Thus, having and knowing the pros and cons of the food we are eating can help us avoid certain diseases. Our health is our wealth; it is our living treasure that no one could take away. As time passes by, we should be cautious and knowledgeable on the nutrients our body needs and what should be avoided. Always remember that our Lifestyle defines who we are. A healthy lifestyle is a must, push natin ‘to!
