New Year: 2013

 

    A New Year makes us one year older and to be more mature. New Year's eve is like every other night. There is no pause in the march of the universe, no breathless moment of silence among created things that the passage of another twelve months may be noted; and yet no man has quite the same thoughts this evening that come with the coming of darkness on other nights.

     New Year, New Me? Nahh. I don't think that's gonna happen. People don't necessarily need change in their lives. Some people are perfectly happy with the way their lives are, but some changes in life are out of our control while other changes are made because we feel the need to make them. For some people a change can be a positive thing which improves their quality of life. I can change myself anytime of the year that will make me more happy and contented. If you we're observing every time we go to school after New Year. What do our teacher told us to do? Ofcourse,  New Years Resolution but do all these resolutions implied to you? Either some of it or none of it. I got annoyed, so few years ago I stopped making my resolutions.

     Every time I make mistakes, I accept it. And I'll try to make things better next time. Year's end is neither an end nor a beginning but a going on, with all the wisdom that experience can instill in us.

Essence of Christmas

     Christmas is the most awaited season of the year. Gifts, foods, colorful lights on the streets, lanterns, Christmas trees and many other. Everyone's seems to be excited about the coming of Christmas Eve. But do we really know the true essence of Christmas?

     Christmas! The very word brings joy to our hearts. No matter how we may dread the rush, the long      Christmas lists for gifts and cards to be bought and given - -when Christmas Day comes there is still the same warm feeling we had as children, the same warmth that enfolds our hearts and our homes.Christmas is not just a time for festivity and merry making. It is more than that. The Christmas spirit is a spirit of giving and forgiving. And may we all have this spirit throughout the year for our family, friends, and those who are in need.

     From Home to home, and heart to heart, from one place to another. The warmth and joy of Christmas, brings us closer to each other. The best of all gifts around any Christmas tree that I would want is the the presence of a happy family all wrapped up in each other.

Equal Rights, Equal Opportunities

     They say that time changes things, but you actually have to change them yourself. Equality? We all deserve to be equal, equally treated, equally respected from race, sex, religion, age and other petty differences should not matter.
     We all deserve respect no matter where we came from whether you're an Asian, European or American. Black or white, tall or short we all that matters. Men and Women are people. Sex should not matter, therefore, they should be treated with respect. Many men and women are harassed every day by the opposite sex. People should realize that without the opposite sex, it would mean the end of the human race. So both men and women are just as important as the other. No religion is wrong. We are raised to believe on something. Discrimination, we should not judge others the way they look physically. Let yourself know them mentally. It is not their fault, If they we're born differently.
     People are people, discrimination is discrimination, and what's wrong is wrong. No one is any better than anyone else. I hope that someday people will stop trying to get back at one another. Until this happens there will never be peace.

Climate Change

     When I hear the words ‘Climate Change’ there are three main question that comes up to my mind. Who are the one’s responsible for this? What will happen to Earth if Climate Change is happening? And are there anyone responding to Climate Change?

     Cause? Humans are largely responsible for recent climate change. Over the past century, human activities have released large amounts of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. The majority of greenhouse gases come from burning fossil fuels to produce energy, although deforestation, industrial processes, and some agricultural practices also emit gases into the atmosphere.

     Effects? Climate change affects everyone. Our Global Temperature, sea level, precipitation. Storms and flooding that will affect many lives and even home displacement. The impact on human health, like heat and air pollutants that will lead to respiratory diseases. Our food supply will also be affected, until we all suffer from these problems. Our lives are connected to the climate.

     We should take an action. Start on ourselves, on our family, friends, even on the streets. It is never too late for a change. Just do it today! And have a better life from time to time and for more generations to come.

2nd Grading Period

     It's like been a week when I wrote my first reflection. And here I am again for my second reflection for second grading period.

     On our second grading period I've learned new things on our subject ICT. Parts of a Web Browser, Levels of Domain Name, Search Engines, HTML's Tag Attributes and so much more.

     I had encountered problems in my studies especially in coping up in our class, understanding, our exercises and familiarizing my self with the tags.

     I faced this problems by making myself more focus on my studies. Pass my requirements on time especially my notebook and blog.

     Moving on, I will focus more on my studies. Pass my requirements on time. and I'll be listening to our class discussions. 

Scientricity: Energizing Science Clubbers for Sustainable Energy

        The world is constantly changing. Technologies emerged and already been a part of our daily lives. But despite of all these innovation. Do we have enough sustainable energy for us and for generations to come?
           What can we do? We can make a difference! There are many simple action that we can take to make a better usage of sustainable energy. Energy efficiency, this may be as simple as turning of the lights when leaving a room or bicycling to school instead of asking for a ride. We must know how very important alternative energy sources to us. Like wind, solar, hydroelectricity and other renewable energy sources.
            We must do our part, take responsibilities, duties and to encourage others to conserve. Share information about energy conservation with our friends, classmates and neighbors. And once you start exploring, you'll see that it's actually fun!

My Teacher, My Hero

     September 5 to October 5 is the celebration of the theme "My Teacher, My Hero". We all know that every year we celebrate it and every year we are having activities in related to theme not just for the students but also for the teachers. But what is the true essence of this celebration? It is not just showing that we love them but showing them that we appreciate them. For all the hardwork that they had been doing for us.
     A hero is not just defined by fighting in a war. It is also defined as doing a novelty thing. Saving lives, protecting and helping people is already called a hero. If in the past hundred years we had Dr. Jose Rizal, Andres Bonifacio, Apolinario Mabini and other Filipino heroes who fought for our freedom. Todays hero is our teacher. Without a teacher, there will be no doctor, architect, engineers and even future teachers. They do not just teach us how speak in English and Filipino, learn the concepts of Newton's Third Law of Motion or understand the formulas in Advanced Algebra. It is the experience and value we learn from them. Chalk and eraser are their tools and with these tools we learn new things from them. From the advices and scolds we hear. We made ourselves more confident and responsible to our lives.
     And this are my reasons why I consider teachers as my heroes.
