Resiliency is not always a good thing

Filipinos are known for being resilient. After calamities hit the Philippines, they still manage to smile. It is very rare to see someone smiling in the middle of the flood to wave to the camera, how hard life is but still smile. I saw how fast they recover on situations like those.

It's been a good thing for the resiliency of Filipinos but I am afraid that they will just pass what happened and stay at it is. According to Shakira Sison, "The problem with our resilience is the speed by which we transform trauma into acceptance. Instead of solving problems, we simply cope or wait for the problem to pass." We are showing that we can't do anything about it. Is it really true? Why not making a goal to overcome it? Be strong enough to gamble in order to make things to the right path. You may fail, you can change strategies but never your goal. Be positive in a way that we think we can do it. Have determination. Problems may pass but if you do nothing, it will always repeat the past - makes it a cycle.

As what I have learned on our ESP subject, to act like a person, after you saw what is the mistake, it is our obligation to fix it. Smiling maybe the solution for hard times, but working is the best. Make things work and don't give up. Just don't accept but also fight and be strong.

117th Fun Day

"We didn't realize we were making memories. We just thought we were having fun" Before school year ends, we celebrate the Highschool day. For this year, 117th Highschool Day was celebrated last March 1 and 2, 2019. On the first day afternoon, the Princes and the Princesses were recognized in the gym. His Royal Highness Angeleo Paet and Her Majesty Queen Jannelle Maria Unciano are the Mr. and Ms. ISNHS Coronation Ceremony. On the second day, the program started with a parade of all students together with their loving advisers. On the afternoon, students showed their performance on the field. Not just that, teachers also showed off their moves. It was worth all the practices we've made. And the crown goes to the Grade 8 students! Highschool day celebrated every school year yet we still feel the excitement and fun before and during the event. Next school year, I hope to add more contests and booths to show the skills of the students. The more the merrier!

It is because of the observation that many traditions, songs, dances, and other Ilocano culture are not recognized by the younger generations of the province."
