Kannawidan.

Kannawidan is an Ylocos festival which happens always during the last week of January. In here, the OTOPs of every town of Ilocos Sur is being shown in order to be proud of their livings. Kannawidan is a legacy which people have been preserving years and years ago. This is to show that we have what it takes to be a true blue Filipino.

What it takes to be an ICT student.

Being an ICT student is being a normal student. You learn the lessons of life, then try to live with it. You are in charge of yourself. If you can't understand it, learn to enjoy it. An ICT student? It sure is hard but in the same time, it's fun.

My Dream, My Future.

In the near future, I can see myself standing in an operation room, laughing and being proud as everybody in the room is congratulating me for a job well done. I just had my third success. As a surgeon, I specialize in major surgery, and people counts on me a lot.

Reflection.

Truth be told, I enjoyed this quarter.

It was very fun learning the HTML and its parts. I got so involved with it that every time the bell for second period rings, I gather my things so easily wanting to go to the computer room as fast as I can. I can't help but to get excited with all the new lessons about the HTML. This isn't a lie. Nope. I really did enjoy this quarter because of the extraordinary lessons.

Like when they told me that we'd have a project by making a front page using the HTML, I volunteered to do the work. At first I invited my group mates to come because I was quite unsure of how to do that but then they were just like slacking around and eating everything in my house, doing nothing so the other day, I didn't invite them and just did the work. I made my first front page for only six hours. It was quite hard but easy because I know HTML since I was in Grade five. Thanks God and Ma'am Eve because I was able to do it successfully. As far as I can remember, I was so happy when I finally finished it. :)

Third quarter? I don't like it. I love it. :P

New Year, New Me.

Happy New Year!

It feels so not true. It's feels so surreal. It’s like just another day again, but no! It's January 2012 already. The clock’s running so fast it makes me want to scream at it and say stop. 

2011 went really fast. I’ll leave the bad vibes behind and make a fresh start today. It's new year, I'll probably change for the better. But I won't go on posting New Year's Resolution or such. I don't actually believe in it. It's just that, many people tend to promise but then after two months or more, they'll possibly forget what they promised and hoped for. Promising isn't just my thing. :)

What more can I say but this? 2012, surprise me. Be the best. *cross fingers*

Let’s smile. Awesome adventures awaits us. :)

“Iloko Dialect: The Ilocano’s Pride”

“Asino kadi ti maidayaw nu di ket ti Ilokano met lang nu ipukkaw tayo nga Ilokano tayo? Asinu kadi ti haan nga maidayaw nu di ket bagbagi tay met lang nu ibain tayo ti Iloko?"

We have been taught how to speak Tagalog and English in order to communicate with other people. But this doesn’t mean that we can forget already the dialect which has been passed by the men who have once inhibited the vicinity we are in today.

In every province, they have their own dialect which is their medium when they speak to anybody. We communicate everyday using Iloko. Because of this, we are able to survive from everyday hardship because we can get what we need if we use this dialect. But because of the economy progress, people tend to forget where they have been and what they had used in order to get there. People adopt to change that easy, and that is one of the reasons why the Iloko dialect is being forgotten. We must not be naïve and that gullible to be driven away from the truth that we are Ilocanos ready to serve our province. True enough, we must step forward but in that step, we must bring with us the whole things which have been an important item in our life.

Before knowing how to talk to people from afar, let us learn first how to talk to people who are near. Iloko first, before others.

Everyday is Christmas day. :)

           “We wish you a Merry Christmas, we wish you a Merry Christmas, we wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!” Christmas is one of the most awaited holidays in Earth’s time. It is the day wherein our Savior Jesus Christ was born in the manger. It was the day wherein Earth has been finally given the chance to be filled with peace, joy and love.

Now, do we still see the true essence of Christmas? Or is it now fully forgotten? Let me have the chance to make you remember what Christmas really is.

It’s all about sharing, helping and giving. We share our blessings to those who are in need. We give toys to the children who need company. We help the indigents and less fortunate by giving them clothes, food and money. Christmas is about forgiving. It’s high time to forgive and forget the miserable things people had done to us. Remember, Christ came to our world to forgive us, what then can a human do but to follow His example?

And lastly, Christmas is about love. Sometimes, there has to be at least one day of the year to remind us that we’re here for something else besides ourselves. We are here in this world because of GOD and people behind us. Let’s give them enough love for the love they have given to us the whole time.

These essences must be done by everybody first before feeling the joy and pleasure that will last in our mind.
