AS THE TIME FADES…

          Second Grading almost done and another era for another moments of life. A tear fell when I’d realized that time moves so swiftly and irrevocably for I am graduating soon. For 4 years in Ilocos Sur National High School, I’d witness different kinds of people…. Classmates…. Teachers….

          In this institution, I’d learned what is life and why did my parents send me here. Mainly, to learn and to have a high-standard of education but for me, there’s a more significant reason why I’m here, it’s to explore, socialized and expound more than what I know. It is a great pleasure that I’d studied here because I’d seen riots, chaos between my classmates but I also felt mutualism only here in ISNHS.

          As a senior high school student, I can’t deny that of course I could judge others on what they are doing, bullying and even making jokes in a hurtful way. And I’d realized that, is it okay? Is it good to hurt the feelings of others?

          I’d get discernment from my mother and from God on how could I seize my struggles against myself and others. I felt guilt and I don’t know what could be its result. My mother told me to change my bad attitudes and say sorry to those whom I’d hurt and I know that it’s also the advice of God and He used my mother as an instrument for me. Many days passed but I’m not still ready. Until the moment comes that it’s the time. Time to say sorry and lending them help whenever they need it.

          I have still a lot of time to show my care and how sincere I am as a student of IV-Marconi year 2013-2014. Being here is a big challenge and take the challenge to be a better and strong person.

SECOND GRADING ENDS

“THE GEMS CANNOT BE POLISHED WITHOUT FRICTION”

Education developed from the human struggle for survival and enlightenment. It may be formal or informal. But where do people foremost educated?

As we know that we first learned in our own homes, our parents serve as our first teachers however it doesn’t end there. As we grow, our parents send us to school to learn more, to know why do people exist in this world and to observe how life mutual to another life. But, who are the people behind these institutions? TEACHERS! JThey serve as our second parents in school. Guide, protector, source of advices in every consequences we’re facing. They shared their love and care their students as their own children. Sometimes, they scolded their students for their mistakes but these instances made them better creation. Our teachers mold us to be BOLDER and the reasons for bearing certified and standardized personalities in our society. 

Patience…. Initiative…. Enthusiasm…. Determination…. Faith…. Humility…. A servant at heart…. These are the keys of our teachers to be worth-emulating teachers. As I said that “gems cannot be polished without friction” that those professionals and we, students can’t be what we are right now for it’s not because to our teachers who wholly give their hearts to serve. I salute you teachers for imparting your life for us that we could seize upon circumstances as instruments with which to work. I really thank you and I pray that all teachers continue their profession in upright and enjoying way in service.

This proves that Americans contribution (education) is one of the greatest contributions we ought to thank of.
