Modern Day Heroes

Just Heroes

          Super heroes are those beings who have these incredible super powers, like flying, super strength, telekinesis, Dashing speed, invincibility etc. Common kids these days look up to those so called super heroes. They believe in them and admire them so much, but they don’t even exist. Kids should look up to real heroes not Superman, Batman, Ironman, Spiderman, and so on. Instead of pretending to become these ‘super’ heroes, why don’t they just aspire and dream of becoming a true hero like a teacher, policemen, firemen, taxi drivers, basketball players, etc.?

          Real heroes are those who help others willingly and wholeheartedly and do not expect anything in return. The first normal day heroes you encounter every day is you family. They are the ones who help you every day in the times of trouble. When you wake up in the morning and go down stairs, you feel hungry. Luckily you have your mom making breakfast for you. When a light bulb dies, don’t worry. Your father comes along to replace it with another one. When you have difficulties in your studies or assignments, never fear! For your big brother or big sister are here! Here to help you with your problems. Your family is the greatest every day normal heroes ever. But they’re not the only normal day heroes; take a look at Mr. or Mrs. Teacher She or he always give time to teacher his/her students. From basic mathematics 1+1=2 up until [50/2(1/5) + (-2 x 3) -3] =2. Your teachers are always there to guide you to a better, brighter future without anything in return. Another modern day hero is Mr. Taxi driver. For instance, you were late at work and your car doesn't start for some reason, you call on Mr. Taxi driver to save the day. Dashing through traffic as fast as he can just to get you to your destination. Let’s also take a look at the Policemen. Always there to keep the neighborhood or the city safe. When a thief steals, when a burglar breaks into a jewelery shop, when a fight emerges from the streets, cops are always there. When fire bursts out in a building, who do we call on? Firemen! One call and they bolt out of their building with their fire truck to save several lives in a burning building.

          Heroes are not born, heroes are made. Just like the historical heroes, they were made by pain and suffering. Heroes are made by experiences and knowledge. They are made by a cause, a reason. Dr. Jose P. Rizal, John F. Kennedy, Andres Bonifacio, George Washington etc. I’m just saying that we can be heroes if we want. We can be heroes in our own small ways. If you help an old woman cross the street, you are already doing an act of heroism. Why admire those super heroes when you can be a hero yourself.

Buwan ng Wika

Month of Importance

Every August, we acknowledge something we use every day but don’t see its true importance. We use it to Communicate, bring peace and order, mingle with people, make connections and to create a path of righteousness.

Our native language, Tagalog was always an important language , from the era of Spaniards to the time of Japanese and until now we use it. This language have always been a weapon for disorder, our ancestors used it to fight against enemies like the Spaniards, make allies with foreigners such as the Americans and many more. At modern times like nowadays, Tagalog is used for Peace and Democracy, like when President P-noy delivered his State of the Nation Address, he used Tagalog in doing so, and even normal Filipinos use this to give their opinions about current issues. Our language is used for purity and peace and we should keep it that way.

As the slogan said “Ang Wika natin ang tuwid na daan”, we should use our language in great things so that we will follow the straight path towards a brighter tomorrow. Let us see the Importance of the language, Filipino, this ‘Buwan ng Wika’ halika na’t tahakin natin ang matuwid na daan tungo sa maraniag na kinabukasan.

Reflection(1st grading)

THE PLAN

The lessons in I.C.T. this year is not that new anymore because at the previous years I have already been introduce to computers and the internet but in this year I have learned more and gone deeper to the field of Modern computers more particular the Internet. I have learned about the Internet’s pass or the Internet timeline from being just a Government project to a more advanced global sensation to all. I have also came across blogs of different types and uses.

          There are many things that I have encountered this year, hard compositions about topics concerning present issues or events, gigantic projects of different subjects, endless assignments and, as usual, the upcoming Periodical Examinations. But in the bright side I have managed to control and surpass these challenges. I have face them with full hopes of succeeding and thus I emerged victoriously. 

          I have attained a lot of skills and knowledge this 1^st grading period and I have also enhanced these skills and boosted up my knowledge. I plan on doing a better job next grading, review my lessons, take down some notes,listen attentively to the teacher and be really industrious concerning assignments and projects. I plan on being a top achiever this 4^th year and having a good reputation to people and lastly doing a spectacular thing on our school so that when I graduate, I have something to contribute to the Alma Mater.

Nutrion Month

"World Without Starvation"

World without Starvation

               Have you ever seen children on the streets begging for food? Pity to see them like that, skinny, lean and hungry. Compare them to the kids who won't eat healthy vegetables and nutritious food.            
              For the kids that won't eat their vegies, they don't know the importance of nutritious food while the homeless people, they value these food and would do anything just to eat.
                This July, nutrition month, let us value the food we eat and let us fight hunger and abolish it. We should learn to cook more nutritious food and share them with others. Many families are struggling because of poverty, we should cooperate with each other and make people realize the importance of nutritious food. Make every bite count, every drop of water matter, and cherish every food we share.              
               We should unite and fight hunger and malnutrition . Let us create a World without Starvation.

Honorable Benigno Simeon Aquino III

President, Republic of the Philippines

Malacanang Palace

Dear President Aquino,

             

        Greetings Mr. President! I'm very honored to write a letter to you and I am thankful for this opportunity, sir.

             I am addressing this letter to you on behalf of my fellow Pilipinos as well as myself. I would like to give my most sincere and honest thanks to you for running the Republic of the Philippines responsibly and democratically. I know that you are struggling to manage our country's economy, agriculture, education, etc. I know you have several meetings to attend, hundreds of papers to be signed, towering stacks of files, and dozens of requests. There are times that obstacles just show up to be a hindrance to our country's development like furious Typhoons, mad terrorists, conflict with other countries, territorial properties, and so on. As the president, you have lead us to the straight and glorious path towards a better and brighter future, I salute you for that. Continue to serve this country, sir, serve it and serve it well.             

               Thank you for finding the time to read this letter although you have a handful of presidential works and projects for our country.

Kapwa Pilipino,

Tristan Joshua Rosas
