My Hero

"My Parents are My Heroes"

               They are not just my parents, they are my life, my idol, my inspiration and they are my hero. They are my hero because from childhood until now, they are always there supporting, guiding, caring and loving me. My parents are my heroes because they are the strongest and most loving people I know. They have both worked so hard and sacrificed so much to provide for me and my sister and give us the best lives possible.
           Since I was a child, I think I was still a baby that time, my mother sacrificed to go to the other country to work, to provide our needs and to give us a good and abundant life. I salute her so much because of her sacrifices. I love my mother, no matter what happen.
             My father is the one who is taking care of us, who do the household chores, he’s the one who sent me to school and who always cook for our breakfast, lunch and dinner. He is so industrious and very patient father. I love him also, no matter what happen.

             My Parents are the one who give me advice and they teach me to become a good person. They will sacrifice everything for us, that is why I called my parents a “HERO”. 

                        

Theme: Tatag ng Wikang Filipino, Lakas ng Pagkapilipino

"Tatag ng Wikang Filipino, Lakas ng Pagka-Pilipino"

                       It was December 30, 1937 when President Manuel L. Quezon declared that Filipino is the National Language of the Philippines. So this Month is the 75th year of celebrating the month of language.

                        Buwan ng Wikang Pambansa is celebrated during the month of August per the provision of Presidential Decree 1041, series of 1997, as declared by former President Fidel Ramos. This year, the Department of Education has released a memorandum (DM No. 104, s. 2012) citing the 2012 Buwan ng Wika theme "Tatag ng Wikang Filipino, Lakas ng Pagka-Pilipino.'" Buwan ng Wika is yearly celebrated in the Philippines to commemorate the importance of having one language that binds the people of a nation.

                      Our language is one of the most important evidence that affirmative that we are a Filipino. You cannot say to yourself that you are a Filipino if you are not giving importance to your own language. As Jose Rizal said “Ang di marunong magmahal sa sariling wika, ay mas masahol pa sa malansang isda.”

                       Through our Filipino language, we understand and we unite each other because of this our goal will fulfill. We should not forget to give importance and to love our language. This is our obligation in being a Filipino and we should always remember the importance of our national language, don’t be shame to it and don’t ever ignore it.

    ..........I am Maricris Bueno! Proud to be a Filipino!..........

                         

Reflection

“Moving on"

             “Through experience, we are learning, we discover and we develop.” This saying means a lot to me and I believe that everything that we experience, we can learn something to it that will make ourselves stronger in facing problems that are coming and will come into our life and especially we are learning lessons through what we have done.

             Education is very important to us because as we know, this is the key to our success.  Every new level we’ve learn many things, we earn knowledge and we discover something. In my every subject, I have learned and discovered different things especially the things that will help me to my future.

              Problems are always there but it is a challenge to everybody to solve it.  Sometimes there are times that I don’t understand the lesson that our teacher discussed because sometimes I’m not listening to him/her and sometimes I’m not focusing. That is the reason why I do not know the answers of my assignment that our teacher given to us and that cause for forcing myself to cheat to the answer of my classmate. Rushing project is also one of my problem and it making me stress. The reason why sometimes I’m rushing my project is sometimes I deferred it.       

             As of now, I am always listening to our teacher and focusing to my study, so whenever we have a quiz, I get a high score and I’m not also cheating the answer to the assignment of my classmate anymore. When our teacher gave us a project, I start it early for me not to rush again my project.

            Moving on, I will study hard, focus on study, and participate during class discussion. I will also be more responsible and industrious.

SONA of President Pnoy

“State of the Nation Address (SONA) of President Pnoy”

"The President's 3^rd SONA showed us the truth about the nation, inspired us to do the impossible, and defined the ways how we should move forward."

                    The 3^rd SONA of President Pnoy happened last July 23, 2012 at the Batasan Pambasa Complex in Quezon City. As expected, mixed reactions depending on which side of the fence is observing from. Some people are satisfied and some people are not satisfied to the SONA of the President.
                    For my own observation, President Pnoy is really sincere to what his saying and I believe that he can make our country more progressive. He reports the following fight against graft and corruption, building of roads and infrastructures, the strengthening of our educational system, housing, electoral form and many more. He mentioned about responsible parenthood in relation to the shortages of classrooms, school chairs and books and it was the most applauded highlight of his speech. That’s why I’m satisfied to his 3^rd SONA unlike his 1^st and 2^nd SONA because he is more confident to what his saying

                      I admire our President Benigno Simeon Aquino III because of his sincere dedication to the public service. I am hoping that he will continue his unblemished records for the past two years as far as corruption is concerned. We really need a president who is clean, honest and not corrupt. 

"Pagkain ng gulay ugaliin, araw-araw itong ihain"

"Eat Vegetable Everyday For a Better body and a longer life"

                 Our life is the greatest gift of God. Everyday in our life we used something that will make our life longer and that is also one of the basic needs of people and that is “Food”. Food is very important because we cannot live without this. Not all foods are nutritious and sometimes it is not good to our health.

                   This year 2012, we are celebrating the 38^th nutrition month of July with the theme “Pagkain ng gulay ugaliin, araw-araw itong ihain”. This celebration aims to encourage Filipino’s to eat more vegetables and to increase country’s vegetable consumption. Vegetables are important as it gives vitamins and minerals to our body to prevent and fight disease.

                    Some children doesn’t like to eat vegetables, some of their reason is it has a bad taste. The parents should explain and encourage their children to eat vegetables and they should always serve it everyday. Avoid eating junk foods because it contain high levels of calories from sugar or fat with little protein, vitamins, and minerals. Junk food increases your risk of heart diseases, which block your arteries with plaque and causes heart attacks and strokes while vegetables can give us strong body resistance.

                 As early as possible we should eat vegetables in our daily life. We should take good care of our health because everyday we should have an energy to make our mind function well and have an alertness.
