4th Quarter Reflection

 It’s almost time until this school year ends, felt so long ago not going to lie. So the structure of this reflection is the same as always. My answers might have similarities to the previous reflections, so let’s start.


First up, I just learned as much as I can for all these lessons. I ask questions if I don’t understand anything so that I can comprehend the lessons. Second, it’s just the same of not understanding filipino subjects. Third, however I managed to actually understand a lot of the language I could answer some questions on my own, though I’ve still not mastered it, I am getting there. Fourth, moving on I will do my best to be a good student for when I move up to grade 11 and try to master my knowledge and education.

I’ve come along way during this school year, all of us. I want to thank my classmates, teachers, my family, and God for helping me learn so many new things and who have helped me comprehend the stuff I didn’t understand. This school year was such a blast, and I hope next year would be just as great, if not better. Thank you for reading and goodbye ISNHS 2025-2026, amen.

National Women's Month 2026

 The great month to celebrate the existence of women all around the globe. It's a great time to be nice to any female you meet. There are so many nice women that you can be friends with.

I would never think that there would be a world without any females. It just seems so impossible for a world to function without the two genders working together as a society. I also heard in some mythology, that the reason why there are two genders is because that God was afraid of a human being too powerful, so he separated the two genders, and the two genders are two parts of an incomplete whole.


That's just from what I read in the book series, I didn't look into it much further. But all I am saying is that I am glad that women exist in the world as equality and balance should always exist without one side being more dominant than the other. I thank all the women in the world (except the bad ones) and hope that they will continue to be great people in the coming years. Happy National Women's Month.

High School Day Celebration 2026

 Hello, as of writing this, I've already attended the celebration and completed our dance with the boys. High School Day is just a big celebration where we do a parade and field demonstration. This blog will share my experience before and during the celebration.

Before High School Day, we had to prepare our props just like before. We as students will get materials that are needed for the props making and proceed to make it ourselves. The picture you see is the primary function of the prop, wherein it looks like a beautiful flower and can be rotated with our hands. The base which is the circle of course is also needed in order to have a foundation for the flower. My prop was actually made with the help of Ma'am Gladys so she can use it as a demonstration for the other classmates, but the colors I did myself.


There are two big circles used for the base so that it's black on all sides. On the other side of the circle is something like the flower but without any of the colored papers. And in the middle is the orange symbol used, I have no idea what the symbol is or why it was chosen. This is the one where I needed help from ma'am with since the tutorial video shown in the group chat was very low quality and kind of hard to follow. So, I entered to the MAPEH Faculty to ask Ma'am Gladys to help, and when I gave the orange-colored paper she then gave it to Sir Jason and he did it for me and I came back to the classroom glue it on the circle, thanks Ma'am and Sir.

Now, these props also gave trouble since at the time, no tutorial video was given so I as only left with instructions I noted down told by Ma'am. SO, me and my mother worked together to make these. It's not as big as I'd like but I checked it to ma'am and she said it was okay. What I didn't like was that the tutorial video was given after I completed for so long, but I don't really care since it's done already.




This picture was taken during the assemble before the parade, they did this so that my classmates have pictures for the thematic which is what I was doing right now. Nothing else really happened while waiting for our turn to walk so yeah it was cool. Thanks for the free picture classmate.





This picture was taken during the parade itself by my father; he was a good guy, and my mother also was there who gave me a bottle of water during the parade near McDonalds. The parade itself was just a very long walk from the high school and around the city of Vigan, like the picture shown it is within Calle Crisologo. It was a great walk, gives all of us great cardio. 







And finally, the final picture taken during the field demonstration after the parade. Unfortunately, not that many since there was a very crowded audience so my parents couldn't get a very good picture of me since I am very far aware from where they are. The picture I have is actually just a screenshot of a 1-second video that my mother took for some reason, I don't know why there aren't many seconds of it but whatever.

Ok, well that's all I have to say about this occasion. It was tiring but it was still very fun to participate in. Although I did leave to go for lunch after the performance of the G10 Boys, sorry I was hungry. Other than that, very cool and I hope everyone had fun, cheers!

The Future is Nigh

 


The future and the dream, it is possible to obtain those if you have reached your potential. With hard work and dedication, you can achieve anything including those two. You can reach the heights that were once thought to be impossible to climb and manage to reach the peak of the mountain of your life.

However, every person has different means to reach the peak of a mountain. Not everyone will have the same mind, job, actions, and events that will help them reach the top. The only general thing is that a person should have the right amount of skill, knowledge, and mentality to be able to reach that.

But be careful, as one misstep might result you falling down to rock bottom. It is very important that a person to be mindful of their decisions and choose the thing that will bring them good fortune. If you managed to reach the peak, you could be able to contribute to something greater and be a better person. As for me, my contribution to this world will come and I promise that I'll do my best as a person and achieve my dream. So that my future will be excellent.

Ilocos Sur Festival


Every year on February 2nd, the Philippines' Ilocos Sur province celebrates its founding anniversary with the Kannawidan Ylocos festival. Activities take place from the final days of January to the first week of February, and the celebration lasts for a week. The province's capital, Vigan, is the site of major activities.

The word tawid is the root of Kannawidan Ylocos. Tradition, legacy, and/or heritage is how it is translated into English. It commemorates the province's historic founding during the Spanish era.

Kannawidan Ylocos was first launched within the term of Deogracias Victor Savellano in 2008. It was founded with the goal of raising awareness of and preserving the regional customs, legacy, traditions, and culture. Additionally, it provided a chance to highlight regional goods, craftsmanship, and artistic expression. Additionally, it was developed to support the regional travel and tourism sector.


Traditional games, cultural performances, drone light and dancing fountain shows, fireworks displays, comedy evenings, entertainment, cuisine festivals, pet shows, and competitions are among the events that the Kannawidan Ylocos can enjoy. Traditional games, talent competitions, displays, athletic events, training, street dancing, festival dance competitions, and other entertaining activities are also available.

That's all I can find for the information I have researched. Very unfortunate I didn't participate in any activities while it was going on. Oh well, there's always next time. Thanks for reading!

Always on Valentine's Day

 The holiday of love, Valentine's Day. The only thing I've done on this day is attending the 3rd Quarter Recognition. It was a small but good event that was held in our classroom, featuring a presentation of all the students who have gotten honors for the 3rd quarter, including me. We even had a small little intermission to showcase our love to our parents and teachers. After, we took pictures of our grades and went back home to eat.

When me and my mother went back home, my father was there. To our surprise, he had brought a bouquet of flowers as a gift to my mother, in which we told each other a happy valentine's as we embraced together as a family. It really grew my spirit high that day and I am grateful to have loving parents take care of me and my siblings.

Then in the afternoon, we attended church to get blessed by the Father. After that, we had our dinner at Shakey's, lots of people was crowded in there because of Valentine's. We managed to get our table there and waited for our food. When the food arrived, we ate it up, I ate lots of chicken and a garlic bread, it was all yummy for my tummy. There was also a talk between my parents and some other people at a table, who were people that my mother knew. I don't really know who they were, but it was fun seeing them chat.

After all of that, we rested our stomach and went on a trip back home. All in all, it was a very fun day to have experienced and was grateful to be there. I loved everything that happened on that and hope there more days like that. Happy Valentine's Day folks!

It's more fun sa Pamyanan

 About the Vigan Fiesta:

This special occasion features arts and crafts exhibits, carnivals, street dancing, and lively performances that embody the spirit of Vigan's cityhood.

This Fiesta is made to honor St. Paul the Apostle, the town's patron saint. Several places such as the Metropolitan Cathedral and St. Paul College, are dedicated to him, showing the significance of his presence to the town.

This festival is about the city's authentic Vigan longganisa, which tourists are given the chance to taste and savor this traditional food. This festival usually begins on January 22nd which kicks off the start of the whole town fiesta. And this is my personal blog to share my experience with the event


Vigan Longganisa Cook fest

The banner seen at the entrance
For today's set of activities, we first have the longganisa cook fest which in the name it of course involves lots of chefs that compete in cooking a delicious meal for people. Lots of stalls and people to be seen around here who are hard at work in cooking up the greatest meals they can ever conceive. I just strolled through with my mother just being amazed by how they are prepping up the food, just observing on what's going on.

Vigan Longganisa Festival Street Dance

Now we get to what is the main thing of this festival, the street dance that occurs within the place. It starts to travel from the City Hall then ends in Plaza Burgos; the street dancers also travel through places like Calle Crisologo to reach their destination. We went to this street dance while it already started and proceeded to watch the ones near Two Brothers, we didn't manage to watch the entire thing, but I did catch a lot of pictures and videos.

It is a truly an eye-catching experience that attracts lots of peoples' eyes, making them go to see such beautiful performances of Vigan. I highly recommend checking them out at least for just a little bit, to enjoy the wonders of this festival.
