Final Final Reflection

What does it take to be an A+++ ICT IV student?

Actually, for me, you don’t need to be that very intelligent whose expertise in computer entities is maximally overflowing. Even if you’re just a beginner, then so be it. For me, it’s even better because there is a greater tendency that you’ll learn more things you’ve never known before. It is actually fun that way. You can discover things that you haven’t tried, conduct experiments on the computer lab, and explore. You can also learn from your past mistakes. I should know, I’ve been there—done that. Now for me, having to be a mediocre Photoshopper, I’ve grown bored of it. I cannot longer make experiments and can’t bask in the wondrous feeling of discovering something new by my self.

No wonder, I entered the four walls of the Computer Room empty minded about our internet lessons, HTML tags, Hyperlinks then add the vast magical world of Adobe Photoshop. That’s what was playing in my mind before but as days passed by, I’ve realized that I’m enjoying what I’m doing which is a great soul-booster for me. Although I still haven’t reached Jonathan and Aloe’s level in Photoshop skills. They are gods in photo editing and computer mechanics.

Anyways, before I leave the newly made gates of Ilocos Sur National High School, I just want to exemplify my heart-felt gratitude to my ICT teacher, Mrs. Evelyn Vera Cruz, for teaching me more about computers, for teaching me not to stay late at night playing computer games, for teaching me how to create my very own web page, and for helping me know what is the real meaning of ICT . . . I Copy This. Hahaha Thanks, ma’am. ;) 

My Dream, My Future

LOADING. . . ‘Professor/Engineer Rosas’ . . . 50% Complete

There is only a diminutive time left before we graduate in high school. All the exultant bonding with my friends during vacant periods, the laughters we shouted out, the times of better, good, and bad to worse, shady transactions during quizzes, all of these moments will soon be memories but will surely be cherished and kept in the centermost chambers of our hearts and will never decay or perish. Even if faced with the highest tsunamis, strongest earthquakes, thunderous storms, and the most furious wild fires, it will never be trounced.

Awe is overflowing from me as I face the next stage of—not just education— but of life. After we hear Guiseppe Verdi’s “Grand March” and climb up the ISNHS gymnasium stage accompanied by our parents, I anticipate that the next boss in this stage will be choosing the right course and right school for me. In Saint Louis University, I was able to pass my decision in Mechatronis Engineering, which is a very complex engineering course concerned with Robotics and computers. On the other hand, at Mariano Marcos State University, I signed up for taking the Electrical Engineering course which I highly doubt to take. In this multiple choice question, letter C would be taking Accountancy or Civil Engineering at the University of Northern Philippines. Another option for me is to take the UPCAT next year because the University of the Philippines is a very VERY prestigious School and I want to graduate there holding a title of a Professor of Physics. And the last choice would be not tackling the tertiary level. . .

Well, whatever happens I just want to be a successful and prominent Engineer or an outstanding Professor of Physics. And if God permits, I’ll get both titles in the end. There’s nothing wrong with daydreaming. After all, they say that dreams are the dots that create your life. All you have to do is to connect these dots.

Change: It starts with me?

Changing perspective? Or Changing Universe? OR I'm just Changing.

Change is a very powerful entity in this universe. Change is constant, it is the basis of anew, change is sometimes good, change it sometimes bad, change is eternal and infinite, change is the future, change is everything. I believe that change runs with time. Every minute everything is changing, the world is never as it is.

How do people change? How do they make significant and long-lasting shifts that affect every aspect of their lives? Is change even significant?

Learning something new, taking a different approach, or engaging with someone with a different perspective from your own can cause noticeable changes in your everyday life. too tired to think, sorry. Even just watching a movie or reading a book can alter your outlook to some extent. But change with a capital "C" -- the kind that changes your beliefs, motivations, behaviors, and general way of being across all aspects of your life seems to boil down to an essential shift in worldview -- a fundamental transformation in consciousness. To answer the question above, we must have a basis in determining it. Change can never be stopped.

I know that Changing is Eternal and never-ending but i'm not sure if everything is changing around me or  my perspective had changed through the passage of time. . . Or MAYBE it's JUST ME.

Kannawidan 2k14

The Province of Ilocos Sur has recently celebrated its Kannawidan Festival. This year marks the province’s 196^th year based on the royal decree which was dated Feb. 2, 1818 separating Ilocos Sur and Ilocos Norte. Prior to this date, the stretch of Banguii in Ilocos Norte down to La Union is called Ylocos which is a term to refer to the coastal inhabitants.

Kannawidan literally means “from the low lands”. On Jan. 29 to Feb. 6, 2014, several activities were lined for the celebration. Breath-taking tribal performances of the cultural communities of Ilocos Sur were showcased to the natives and also the tourists who came to witness the festival.

Different contests were held such as eating contests, raffle draws, basi drinking contest, bingo, traditional games, Choir competition, And the Saniata ti Ylocos .And there were also a Sarsuela and Komedya Ilocana show.
