Another memory to hold onto

CELEBRATING ISNHS' 122ND FOUNDATION DAY  


    It’s 6:20 AM, the weary breeze along the school’s field and patiently waiting for our juniors to march till it’s the 10th graders turn to venture outside the school’s campus.  Minutes stretching endlessly, waiting until a quarter before 7’ and yet no sign of being our turn. Impatience among my classmates grew and they couldn’t seem to hold it in. Just then, it finally struck 7:00 and we took the first steps in our 2-hour journey along the pavements of Vigan City. 
    
    The movement of 10-Marconi began with perfect synchronization, their disciplined strides setting the pace, and equally spaced distances. Setting our eyes on securing the Most Discipline Grade-Ten Section award. Enduring the kilometers long path, and the unforgiving cobblestone path beneath our feet, as well as the silent atmosphere, brewed from the commitment of obtaining the award. Finally reaching home base, back to the field. The emcees of the school’s foundation day called our section’s name, presenting ourselves with pride and discipline. Then finally marching back to our classroom, still laughably about keeping our rigid lanes.

However, prior to May 22nd, the Science Club and YES-O collaborated to work on the YES-O and Science Club Bazaar, selling handmade Vigan City trinkets as well as pre-owned items.

Then after the parade, the class of Grade 10 Marconi prepared their required props and headgear for the upcoming field demonstration. Everyone was laughing and cheering along, having fun with friends in the comfort of our four-walled confined classroom. Making fun of each other for our goofy looks, the boys after wearing their bandanas and the girls after wearing their blonde bangs. But the atmosphere soon changed. After this, our class went to the field and watched other grade levels and their performances. Specifically, we boys, as we were the first to go. 

    VIVA MEXICO!! The central theme the 10th grade boys had to dance through. Energetic choreography and cardiovascular endurance are so tedious to execute every step. However, we were filled with enthusiasm, dancing to the likes of La Bamba and Levantando Las Manos. After finishing up the dance sequences for the field demo, we headed back to our classroom to have a well-deserved break. 

    Then after some time, I alone went back to the field anticipating the announcement of the Field demo winners. Some classmates of mine joined me in the thrill, the atmosphere tensed. As grade 7 to 11 had high hopes for each of their performances. In the end, we achieved 2nd place some were frustrated, some complained, but I was kind of indifferent (I don’t need to elaborate further). After all of it, the class of 10-Marconi, went on to enjoy our lunch together, beef patty with gravy, mushroom and rice from McDonalds.

ICT QUARTER TWO REFELCTION

Image
    As we end off my 2nd quarter journey ICT, I had a lot of things to learn, and predominantly, this was the basic unit of websites being HTML tags. Me and my classmates learned the basics of utilizing HTML tags. Creating simple arrticles, manipulating character attributes, font size, tables, frames and so much more. Getting more and more used to dealing with HTML coding and how it works. Uasge of HTML tags that we will carry on in our minds as we go on with our lives.    The first thing we learned about is container tags and stand alone tags. With container tags needing two other kinds of tags, being the start tag and end tag; the start tag indicates where the effect will start and the end tag will indicate where the effect of the tag will end, normally indicated by a slash( / ). To indicate there is the presence of an HTML tag, one will use the angle brackets(>,<), so examples of container tags is <i>, </i>, <u>,</u>, <b>,</b...

Metaphorsis: A Transition for Change

Image
      Metamorphosis, a transition in habits and physical form of an animal after going through a phase of development and rebirth. The most well known example of this are caterpillars conversion to butterflies, marking change towards beauty and elegance. It's as if the animal has completely changed from one creature to another. Similarly, us humans, once we have reflected on our past and wanting to go through a process of tranformation. It is less of a biological but rather a psychological change to us people in which we attempt to correct and rectify our actions and habits over the years.Where we humans personally mature and develop. Yet our change from one form to another may not invoke gracefulness as compared to those of butterflies, where our effort to transform may not be so successful. However, I'd argue the beauty behind us humans own form of metamorphosis is the endeavour we take for it, while we may even fail in the process. Where the path to our personal victor...

A summit I shall overcome

Image
     Venturing out in my last years of Junior High school, it's still in the first quarter and it has already been a hassling start to the school year. Yet I had fun, various more activities that I have participated in living in the joyous moments along with others. Furthermore, in these beginnings, I have found the true extent of my abilities. Now brimming with confidence, I can now articulate my ideas much more properly during lectures now my voice can resonate with my thoughts. While also seeing my latent abilities such as swift comprehension, long-term and short-term, logical and analytical strengths to be getting better and better. Also, this slothful mindset of mine has now seem to be getting smaller, now being able to accomplish my tasks with ease. But, I still have much yet to learn.    In not only my highschool years, but also throughout my whole school life, I always seemed to have an attitude towards my academics to be lazy. A mountain that I have kep...
