ICT Lores II

     This grading is one of the most challenging gradings I've ever encountered. I was bothered by the overlapping activities in our school: Science club, Solidarity, Filipino club, etc. But of course, I'm sure that there's something left in my mind.

     In this subject, we entered the world of HTML or the Hypertext Mark Up Language. Just by the topic itself, it triggered my creative juices to come out. I am very much interested especially because it has something to do with the internet.

     First, we took up the different tags. We were able to differentiate stand alone and container tag. Next, we had exercises using the posts we had. At first, I find it boring - doing the exercises. Then, as we went deeper and did more different tags, my nerves were again awakened. After the exercises, we had lectures regarding the different attributes which we might apply in making our web designs. The last activity we had was so confusing. I felt sorry for m eyes. But, it's worth it. I finished our activity properly.

    In the next grading, I am expecting for more complex but interesting activities where I could learn things I might use in the near future.

Teachers: Real-life Heroes

For teens like me, it's a fact that we've  been spending most of our time in school, right? We meet many people , friends, teachers, strangers, etc., whomever we treat like family.

Our generation is known to have this people who are appealing to the senses or mind through beauty. With these characters, some even trended some superheroes; Batman, Captain America, Superman, many more.. Then, these heroes amused eyes of many by their enthusiastic characteristics. But, if to me you'd ask who my hero is, I'd answer you plainly with, "My Teacher."

Since 3, I already started schooling. Thus, at an early age, I've been dealing with heroes; real-life heroes. I would like to talk up about the teacher who have influenced me most in my stay at Ilocos Sur National High School.

She's my hero, at the same time my idol. She did not spend our time just taking up lessons, lessons, and lessons. She is very strict with regards to discipline. It's good. I understand that, because she's training me, or us, to be future leaders. "A good leader is a good follower". This is the line she often tell the class whenever she notices that some isn't doing their assigned jobs well. She withstand words she foretold..... enough with 'us'.

Ever since high school, I didn't have enough courage to recite, which I guess is the problem with me. I might know the answer but, I don't voice 'em out. I just speak to myself. It's like 'WOW.'. It's like wow, how now, I already have enough courage to recite. I thank my teacher, Mrs. Cacal, so much. It might not be that big deal for some, but for me ,it is. She'd taught me a lot with regards to leadership and also to life. If I'd list down everything, I guess it would end you up a day reading.

I feel very lucky to have had a teacher like her and also, a second mother.

HAPPY TEACHERS DAY to all Real-life Heroes out there! :D

"Unravel the Causes, Build the Solutions, Empower Science Clubbers into Action"

When I hear the Science Club Celebration's theme, I see a picture of two buildings in my mind: one is high and the other one is the size of it's half.

The higher, the black one, is marked "causes". The is said to be supplying the Earth's veins, of course with negativity. This building's structure was made of wrong deeds. As people hurt and pollute the environment, the building goes higher creating more black fluids going to different areas on all parts of the world.

The lower, the green one is marked "solutions". The building was constructed with good actions- efforts of people in preserving the beauty of mother nature.

As told, the higher one is the black, and the lower one is the green. Hence, the causes are more than the solutions. The green one struggles with the black. How can the green fight with it? 
We - our actions - are the creators of these imaginary buildings. Therefore, it's in our hands.We have to make things right. We must make the green one higher until it overcomes and unwinds the black one, and finally, it'll dominate the veins supplying earthly blessings in the world. Hand in hand, we can make it happen!
