Reflection

     Laughter, sadness, excitement, memories has filled this room. Days and months have passed and now we were going bid goodbyes. In the past months, we encountered many problems and gained lessons.
This 4th quarter, Photoshop is the centre of our classes. We already used Photoshop in Grade 8 and elementary when working for the school paper. However, I mostly just cropped things I made them black and white. This class has allowed me to explore this program a lot more and I’ve seen all the really cool things that it can do. I learned how to lay out a page- how to add photos, text, filters, blend colours, manipulate layers etc. Working with Photoshop was challenging yet fun. I will treasure and share the skills I’ve gained and lessons I’ve learned. 
I may now leave this classroom but all the memories and lesson I’ve gained will cherished forever.

Live your Dreams

       

     Dreams are necessary. Without dreams, there will be no ambition to chase. There will be no goal to reach. We will all be nothing without dreams. We must know what we want to do and follow that ambition.
Dreaming is essential for a human being. Without dreams, you will lose interest in life and finally hate to live life. Only with dreams, will you find a purpose to live your life.
But with dreams, comes great responsibility. It is just not enough to dream and forget about that dream. Dreams will not work without effort. It is essential to work hard for your dreams. Without this hard work, a dream will only remain a desire and will never be achieved.
Failures may come, but an attitude to keep moving on and trying to improve is thoroughly achieved by dreams.
So dreams are very important in life. They motivate, inspire, improve and help you in achieving any goal. Without dreams, we will be nowhere.

117th Foundation Day of ISNHS

          Schools celebrate their respective foundation days every year. This is the time to commemorate the birth of the school. A chance to remind the students about the humble beginnings of their educational institution. 
          This first and second day of March marks the 117th Foundation Day of Ilocos Sur National High School with a theme, Tradition of Excellence: Championing Filipino Values Amidst Cultural Diversity and Fast-paced Modernization. In February, we can already feel the preparation on the said event. Students cleaned up their rooms. Bulletin boards are updated and well-decorated. Long rehearsals are done to master the pieces to be presented.
          In the first day, the coronation ball was held. All the candidates look beautiful and dashing. They were given crowns, sash, trophy and bouquets as gratitude.
       The following day, parade of all students with their props and costumes was conducted. In the afternoon, Arrival of Honours, an Opening Remark from the school principal and an inspiring talk from the guest speaker-Atty. Allan V. Barcena, was also conducted. 
          The said event was highlighted with a Field Demonstration of students coached by their respective teachers. This year, the teachers also performed. Then, the activities are commended and winners are announced afterward. The day ended with the victory of Grade 8 Boys and Girls.
