Challenging Obstacles


            My senior life started on the fourth day of June, this year, 2012. At first, I was still so nervous of course ‘coz thank God I’m already a senior and I should already be a good role model to our adings in the lower year levels. As we went on with our discussions on the following days, I was already coming to realize the true feeling of being a fourth year student and I can undoubtedly say that I learned new things.

            As a senior and as a person, I cannot avoid problems and challenges involving assignments, activities, projects, etc, inside or even outside the IV- Rizal classroom. The making of our project for a short period, just like our project in Araling Panlipunan IV (AP). It was my very first time to encounter that kind of project that is why I did not know what I was supposed to do yet and we’re just given one week to finish it. I tried my very best to finish it beautifully and correctly, and I did! 

            Things like this cannot be avoided but these are only challenges made by God to try us, to make us a stronger and a better person. I surpassed this kind of trial because I believed that God is always there to guide me into the right way. Of course, I believed in myself and said, “I can do this, I must do this correctly for a good grade in exchange for my parents’ sacrifices.” My family is my biggest inspiration (except God of course).

3rd State of the Nation Address



                I think the government (under President Aquino) is doing well. Perception of him and the Philippine economy are excellent. The foreign investments will continue to happen. We hope that more of the private public partnerships will continue to happen too. In spite of this Crisis, I think Philippines are one of the darlings of investments now. I think we were quite lucky we had the right economic team doing all these efforts. This SONA is very informative and I think our economy is already progressing so we should continue our good doings for the betterment of our own country.

Ma-My Veggielicious!


           The theme focuses on encouraging Filipinos to increase consumption of vegetables to address micronutrient deficiencies and prevent non-communicable diseases such as cardiovascular disease, cancer and diabetes.

           I believe healthy nutrition is the most important factor for maintaining and keeping good health. Healthy nutrition basically is eating healthy and balanced from all the basic food groups; which consists of the dairy group, poultry group, fruit group, vegetable group and a little from the fats, oils, and sweets groups. It is also imperative to drink an adequate amount that corresponds with the daily guidelines of eight glasses a day which is equivalent to a one two-liter soda per day. In order for myself to attain this status of eating healthy I kept a food log for a month that has the entries of what I ate each day. 

           So, now let us all eat vegetables for a healthy and nutritious living.

Mr. Benigno Simeon C. Aquino
Republic of the Philippines
President


Dearest Mr. President,

            Howdie sir, how are you doing? How was it to be seated as the president of our very own country, Philippines? Is it so much stressful sir? 

            Oh! Anyway sir, we are indeed very very lucky to be given this chance to formally write you a letter. I am one of the concern students of Ilocos Sur National High School and I sir would want to grab this one big opportunity to ask you a simple favor not for my self but for the betterment of our school. Sir, if you could only help us with our own internet connection so that it would be easier for us to connect and of course it would also be a lot faster. Our school, ISNHS, is indeed one of the biggest secondary schools in the entire Ilocos Sur and it is very populated sir. ISNHS have educational computers sir but the connection is very slow, it’s because we don’t have our own WiFi. If we could only afford to have one sir, but then we can’t. I hope you can understand what my point is. 

  Thank you very much sir. 
              Have a good day!


Respectfully Yours,
Faye Catherine V. Amigable
