.MOTHER EARTH.






On the third day of creation, God created Earth. He created it like a paradise. And on the six day, God also created a man and woman in his own image. He blessed them and gave them every creature and the whole earth to rule over, care for, and cultivate.

But as the time passed by, new era takes over. The birth of Technology came and governed everything. Inventors create new inventions that lead to the devastation of the Mother Earth. Technology is good also in our lives, it makes the works easier. But it has more negative effects to us. It contributes to the increasing of greenhouse gases in air that result to global warming. Mountains are being bald, more trees are being cut, more factories and vehicles are made that pollutes the air. More trashes, more wastes are being dumped in different parts of the bodies of water that pollute the water. And the effect of that is flooding that result to death of thousands of victims. Mother Earth is now crying for pain.

            Sooner or later, we will have to recognize that the Earth has rights too, to live without pollution. What mankind must know is that human beings cannot live without Mother Earth, but the planet can live without humans. But there is still a time of chance to change our wrong doings before it’s too late. So let’s start it TODAY.

Global Language






             Language functions as an instrument for communication. Language makes conversation. Each nation has its own language. But because English is so widely spoken, it has often been referred to as a "world language", and while it is not an official language in most countries, it is currently the language most often taught as a foreign language. It is, by international treaty, the official language for aeronautical and maritime communications. English is one of the official languages of the United Nations and many other international organizations.
Books, magazines, and newspapers written in English are available in many countries around the world, and English is the most commonly used language in the Sciences.
This increasing use of the English language globally has had a large impact on many other languages, leading to language shift and even language death, and to claims of linguistic imperialism. English itself has become more open to language shift as multiple regional varieties feed back into the language as a whole.

Second Grading









This Grading Period we learned about the mysterious of internet. As we all know that web browser is an application used to join in the internet while web pages are those pages which seemed in the Web Browser containing files, characters and several more. HTML is under in that mystery. Hyper Text Markup Language (HTML) is the main markup language for creating web pages and other information that can be displayed in a web browser. HTML is written in the form of HTML elements consisting of tags enclosed in angle brackets (like <html>), within the web page content. HTML tags most commonly come in pairs like<h1> and </h1>, although some tags represent empty elements and so are unpaired, for example <img>. The first tag in a pair is the start tag, and the second tag is the end tag.  We learned also on how to create an HTML file. It’s my first time to create an HTML file. But then I appreciated that creating it sometimes makes me hard, because of the unsuitable tags that I used. Every so often I forgot to fill angle brackets for the tags. And sometimes I can’t see the wrong spellings inside the angle brackets that make my HTML file wrong. Our teacher in ICT also prepared some activities to make the different type of tags and to master all of it.

"TEACHERS"




Every hour, we hear them talking, giving advice  on how to live and dream well. They taught us to be a better person. They taught us the right direction, taught us what is right and what is wrong, gave us knowledge on what life is all about. They are our teachers, our everyday heroes.
They make an important and big role in our lives and in our community. They gave us their time, to learn and to develop emotionally, mentally and socially. They molded us, through their loving and caring hands. Teachers are like an alarm clock they wake up us in reality, they make us realize that life is a game because sometimes you win and sometimes you lose. They are here in this world not only to teach us, but to care and love us.

Without teachers, we are nothing. Without them, we don’t know anything. Without them, there wouldn't be a Lawyer, Doctors or anything else. Because without Teachers, our road to a beautiful future couldn't be seen…

Wika Natin ang Daang Matuwid




WIKA. Ito ang nag-iisang kagamitan para maiugnay ang mga mamamayan ng isang bansa upang magkaroon ng malakihang pagbabago tungo sa matuwid na daan. Ang wika din ang nag-iisang instrumento upang magkaunawaan ang mga tao sa mundo. Ito rin ang nag-iisang sandata upang magkaisa ang mga tao laban sa mga suliranin ng isang bansa. Marami ang nagagawa nito upang mapabago ang isang nasyon. Mula noon hanggang ngayon, ito pa rin ang bagay na kailanma’y hindi mabubura sa mundo. WIKA. Ito rin ang susi na kapag ginamit ng husto ay magsisilbing kayamanan ng isang bansa tungo sa ikakaunlad nito.

Sinasabi natin na ang wika ay siyang pagkakakilanlan ng isang Lugar o bansa. Sa wikang ating ginagamit ay nalalaman ang lugar o bansang ating kinabibilangan. Ang tema ngayong linggo ng wika ay “Wika natin ang daang Matuwid”. Sa temang ito, ang wikang Filipino ay siyang ilaw tungo sa daang matuwid. Ilaw na siyang nagsisilbing pang araw-araw na gabay sa atin, gumagabay sa pagkakaunawaan ng mga taong Pilipino.
“Ang hindi marunong magmahal sa sariling wika ay higit pa sa hayop at malansang isda”. Ito kasabihan ni Dr. Jose Rizal na ating pambansang bayani. Hindi ibig sabihin na sa mga iba’t ibang lenggwaheng natututunan natin ay kakalimutan na natin ang sarili nating wika. Dapat ang sariling wika pa rin natin ang dapat nating pagyamanin.

Mother

          Who can be called a hero? Our Mother, rightSo what is a hero actually? Are they the ones that help others someone with all their heart without any exchange?
          So let’s talk about heroes and how did our mother become one. A hero is the one admired for his achievements and noble qualities. They are known for their sacrifices but the question is, are heroes only known because they sacrifice their own lives?
          Our mother carried us for 9 months. But, her sacrifices did not just end there. She even guided us along our path in order for us to be respected individuals. They never fail to give us what we need and even what we want as long as they own. These are only some of the proofs that our mother can be called a hero.
          You can’t ask guidance to superman or wonder woman. Our mother can be our best friend and also teachers. So, they can really be called hero of our modern days. Not because their popular but they can be a hero in their own little ways without asking any exchange from us.

ICT


Science and Technologies are very important to everyone. The advancement of technologies now makes the world modernized. Most of the things that we use and we can see are the fruit of Science and Technologies. One of that output is the computer and with the use of its internet, that we can use to communicate to other person even if there are in a faraway place. We use also the internet for searching as well as making assignments.
ICT (Information and Communications Technology) is our subject about technologies. In that 1st grading period, I learned about the history of Internet. Our teacher taught us also all about the internet and the different parts of website. We also learned about blogs. I don’t know that the word “blog” came from the contraction of the term “Web Log”. Blog is a website, usually maintained by an individual, with regular entries of commentary, description of events or other material such as graphics or video. We also knew the types of blogs. In line with that we also made our Google + account, but I have already an account that made me easier. We post our activities there. During our class, we made that us our chatting room.

Having a subject like that, make the students to be ready for the future. And learning all about computers make the things easier and cool. I have learned many things in that 1st grading period and I hope that there will more lessons to be learning.

State of the Nation Address (SONA)





On July 22, 2013, President Benigno Aquino III delivered his fourth State of the Nation Address (SONA). That was the President Aquino’s longest SONA so far but less people’s applause than his last SONA. 

This year, the SONA were focused on the achievements of the government on his term such as approval of the Sin Tax Reform Law and “Responsible Parenthood Law” (RH Law), increase in number of TESDA graduates, reforms in Education System(K-12), Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program (4Ps), increase in Philhealth enrolles from 62% to 81% and improved benefits, allocation of P6.2 billion for flood control in Metro Manila, completion of 9,377 housing units for Typhoon Sendong victims, 63% reduction in number of private armed groups, 21.4 increase in foreign tourist arrivals in 2012 and 7.8% GDP (Gross Domestic Product) growth during the first quarter of 2013.

About the domestic product (GDP) growth for 2012 and various economic reform programs of Aquino government for his three years in the Palace, the country is still the worst unemployment rate in Asia. The rate of jobless Filipinos according to SWS survey results are more than 10 million Filipinos


Gutom at Malnutrition: Sama-Sama Nating Wakasan




         For every year in the month of July, the National Nutrition Council (NCC) leads the whole nation in celebration of the Nutrition Month. For this year 2013, the theme is “Gutom at Malnutrisyon, Sama-sama Nating Wakasan (Starvation and malnutrition, let us end it together!)”
          In our society starvation and malnutrition is the main problem. Starvation is a severe deficiency in caloric energy, nutrient, and vitamin intake. It describes a "state of exhaustion of the body caused by lack of food." This state may precede death. And malnutrition is a general term for a condition caused by inadequate dietary intake and/or disease. There are increasing rate of those who are suffering from starvation, because poverty. And there are now many children who are not eating nutrition foods like junk foods. Because most of the children now, they don’t like to eat vegetables.
          We need to act on that problem. If there’s a problem there is a solution. The solution on that problem is eating a nutritious foods and stop eating junk foods. So we must eat go, grow, glow foods. Starvation and malnutrition let us end it together.

Letter to the President



Ilocos Sur National High School
Gomez St., Vigan City
June 26, 2013




President Benigno Simeon Aquino III
MalacaƱang Palace
1000 Jose P Laurel St., Manila 


Honourable President Aquino:


          Your Highness, I'm John Bernard Rafanan Ranada, IV- Maxwell of Ilocos Sur National 
High School. I wrote this letter to talk about the high price of the different products of the Philippines. Many people cannot afford the price of the products because their salary is not enough. Because the Government gives low salaries to their employer while they increases the price of the goods. I wish that the salary of the employer will increase and the prices will decrease so that they will afford the needs of their families. And I wish that the other problems in the country will be given a solution.
            
            Thank you! God bless you and our beloved country, as you start a very challenging six years as the President of the Republic of the Philippines. May the Lord continue to grant you the necessary wisdom and fortitude in every decision that you make!



                                                                                                 Respectfully Yours,
                                                                                                         John Bernard R. Ranada
