Feel the Pressure


As my cellphone alarmed ..a new week had started' though it looks like my body was glued on my bed and still wants to spend another nighttime there' but my mind was already wide opened and forcing myself to start my day.
☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺☺



It's a very rainy day' I was just about to step out our house but its already windy. Because of this we weren't able to have our flag ceremony. We already had our new seating arrangement. I'm fine with my seatmates but I really don't like the place. I was seating at the first chair in the very first row! What's hard there? ..you'll always be the first one in oral participation specially in AP! With that an early Monday gave me a standing oblation in our period. Though not so nice, I was very happy today, Felariz even shared me what's happening what's the latest in her lovelife but excluding that ..WE DON'T HAVE ASSIGNMENT!


♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪


Sir Mojica marked our day 'bout our Research, specially for me, I really don't focus with it, not because of laziness but for our very hectic schedule bin all aspects.
HATE PROJECTS! It's my day -gosh! After I had this very busy day night with [as usual] assignments and projects ..what more the quizzes tomorrow? That's why any effort I did just to wake up myself, even I alarmed my cellphone twice and so early seems that I can't open my eyes. And now I don't have any Suring Basa, good thing its my day and Ma'am Arlene didn't get it for us to check our classmate's work. But then I was very happy when I got oral participation in AP [come' on!]. While our speech about the "Roles of Children in Building a Solid Family" was a very exciting activity specially when we did it at the Speech Lab. Claudine, our president, even gave some comments, for me, she just had a simple comment about the way I speak like a child which made me deliberate it well.

Projects again, homeworks, I HATE IT! Even a simple subject I can't sleep early. While in doing my assignment, not actually cause I'm almost done, I ate dinner so late. We had our family tree with in this day started from my great great grandparents who I still looked for their papers cause I don't have source except my mom. While, I've been a cynosure together with Shalice, Cyrille and Jerika for we got the lowest score 'bout ions. In our last subject which was PE ..we did so many physical fitness tests, 40 meters sprint, Sit and Reach and Standing Long Jump. On our way home, the rain was very hard, that it even went inside the jeepney ..good thing I'm always prepared with my umbrella.

Whoa! It's Friday ..ahuh! ahuh! but ... HAHA☻ this was the worst late I ever had, ofcourse except the day that I wasn't really able to go yo school, but infairness I tried! Though Ma'am Rhea was about to greet them "Good Morning". A pressured day! Whooh .. I need to inhale and exhale already. Just after Math, Physics' our project and a very busy activity, Chemistry for our Laboratory Work and even in English for our Informal ..HOW COULD I?! After we had our lunch, still for our Filipino, Statistics and Zoology. Before those we even wished that we'll be the chosen one to have take the test given by the other school. For us not to have our subjects within this day. But it's just fine cause they just spent two periods for it. Inspite of all my complain, THANK GOD ITS FRIDAY! and a vacant for us to breath once more ...Happy Weekends☻☺☻

My Family Tree

Way back from my great grandparents, this is how our family goes. Before I've grown up in this modern generation, I came up from my native roots. Started from my great great grandparents, who I never see ever since even in photos. While my great grandparents except my Lola Ilang, who saw me, and even hold my small hands, sing me a song, carry me until I fell asleep, but I was still a baby then. I don't know who they are. That's why I just felt these sweet touches in reminisce. They already died before I matured. My grandparents who still try their best everytime I have problems, though none, just to cheer me up even their already old. And ofcourse my blessed parents who since I was born until forever will took the best care for me and my siblings, sacrifice for our future and strive hard for our family.

In my father's family side, they came from Cavite, Laguna, Batangas, or Southern parts of Luzon, pure Filipinos. While in my mother's family side, they came from Samar and Manila, A Filipino with a Chinese part but for us, we really don't mind this as a nationality, still we prefer to be a pure Filipino.

The parents of my Tatay Frank, Lolo Teodoro and Lola Felisa were farmers, definitely because Batangas really benefit a lot for farmers. I never see them nor introduce yet by my grandparents, though still I look up on how they raised my Tatay. Whereas the father of my Nanay Gaya, Lolo Asyong is a member of Veteran Federation of the Philippines, a seargant in Guerilla and USAFFE, yet my Lola Ilang is an average businesswoman of a canteen. Currently, Tatay and Nanay were living at Sabang, Naic where I also formerly live last year, plus a place for a gathering for "Fernandez". Tatay Frank is a carpenter, my joker everytime were together and a strict but humble grandfather, while Nanay Gaya is a sewer at the same time the "Best Cook" for me, she even took good care when I'm still a baby, same as my cousins, and until now.

Uniform to Lolo Teodero and Lola Felisa, I also wasn'y able to meet Tatay Igme's parents. Lolo Benisyo and Lola Maria were living at Samar that's why they work as fishermen. While I was still an elementary student when my Lolo Pidio and Lola Naring died. But when they were still living they have a Balot Production. As of now, my Tatay Igme and Lola Azon already stop working. Their siblings are now the one who afford their needs. Formerly, Tatay was a family driver while Nanay Azon was a businesswoman. Tatay loves cockfighting while Nanay Azon Bingo. Sometimes they were also strict to us, but most of the time they give rewards for our simple achievenments.
My father, Joel Fernandez, my Papa, teacher, clown , cook, adviser, the one who strived hard and went in an American Base in California just to provide our needs and a comfortable future for our family. Before, he usually makes me laugh to the fullest. He even save me from my mom's sermon. I missed his dishes, all kind of dishes. But still, even he's far from us, he always remind us morals and supports. We still can feel his kisses and embrace as he help us in our problems and blessed us as my "PERFECT PAPA".
My mother, Rosie Fernandez, a strict but soft-hearted mama. Though not that good in cooking, even in teaching us in our homeworks, she always do her best to guide us. A simple housewife but an extraordinary mom. She can do any business just to earn money. She sell gifts every Christmas, horns and fruits every New Year, school suplies every June, house and lots, and our little sari-saris tore. That's my BEST MAMA!

And that's my FAMILY, my sanctuary, the primary place for the flag of truth to be handed. The truth was meant to be given from generation to generation. If those who knew God and who had so very much to tell about Him had always been faithful, and had always stuck to the commands or the rules of the relay, there would have been no gaps. Each generation would have learned from the one before. Fathers and mothers were to tell sons and daughters. There was supposed to be a perpetual relay of truth without a break. Questions, answers, conversations while walking, natural discussions about great varieties of things, an atmosphere of reality, an atmosphere of honesty. The family — a place where true truth is to be discussed, taught, lived, and passed down. Taught? How? By example, as well as by stating facts or rules. When Jesus washed the disciples’ feet He said, “If I then, your Lord and Master, have washed your feet; ye also ought to wash one another’s feet. For I have given you an example, that ye should do as I have done to you” (John 13:14, 15).

a struGgle



...Walking with Ate Micah, LATE ofcourse! It's just fine unless it's not our Flag Ceremony! I ran from where I should stand, not even asking for a permission from our Platoon Leader [good thing its Kuya Joevenagain]




•preparation•


Getting ready for our first Periodical Test, it had been not so clear at first. Cause Ma'am Rhea first told us that our PT would be on Wednesday but after our presentation in English, Ma'am Tenny informed us that its really tomorrow. [wh0a!] I prepared all my reviewers and notebooks then went home early. Still, studying is really a "sleeping pill" for me! For this, I can't resist to go in my room and sleep cause even though I force myself to study, I'll just forget all of those. I woke up pass 2' in the morning for me to study again. Though 1hour is left before I should prepare for school, I still chose to sleep again.




•fiRstday•


I should just sleep 1hour but it became 2hours. That's why as normal ..I'M LATE! though its PT. [hahaha] A half day of our first struggle, its fine when I had my English and Research-Stat, but I already know that I would get low in Math and AP for sure!


•sec0ndDay•


..better would it be?! To be different, I'm not late [ a miraCle!] but it would be 1minute more before they have a list for late comers. For this second day of the struggle, 3 Sciences in 3hours [gr0ss!] Chemistry, Physics and Zoology. This was also the first time that I gave up on MAPEH?! it's hard, difficult, worst ..hoping for a bonus could be!





IT'S DONE!




Like in our former year, we're going at Ternate after those 2days of pressure. Though we're already in different sections, we still make sure that we're complete. I really miss everything last year. We even watched a "pic'slide" when we're still II-Fluorine, whoa! I miss them so much. It's already pass 1:30 but we're just about to go. There we knew, that many third year teachers got angry to us. One of them is Sir Mojica who looked for Eleazer who's with us and even Ma'am Rhea, our adviser. But the worse was Ma'am Evelyn who took it as an offense for Noel and Lerina. We're very lucky cause Ma'am Rhea wasn't so angry with us when we came, but we're still worried for Noel and Lerina. While we're cleaning, that was still our topic, I even talked to Camille as she cry cause if that would get worse there would be a possibility that, that could be the last time we could go in their house. [how sad? think POSITIVE UKIE!]





•accept the consequences•


We checked our test papers and ever since I didn't expect for a high percentage every after checking. But still, I know I gave my best but its always not enough [yah!I admit] And what I just hate the most is when its about to be signed by my Mom. Before she sign, SERMON first [as always!]. Looks like she's not yet aware with my test scores.




•busyFriday•




New lessons, new projects, ...busier I could say. I'm not yet recovering with our first PT but obstacles came so fast.


New [problems], most of us not only juniors but the seniors as well got so busy for the SB. Some even worked for only an hour doing it instead of taking their recess. Me? [yes!] I'm one of them, who go to school without a project ..but I'm not one of them who still try to finish. I'll just waste my effort. Cause it wouldn't be so nice if I would work for it in only an hour. It's better to have a deduction because its late rather than because I wasn't able to do it so good.


New [seatmates] ..Ma'am Rhea was the one who planned it. Cyrille and Nobie would be my new seatmates.I was happy with Cyrille cause I know my days wouldn't be that boring if she's beside me, music and a sense of humor [perfect!] but with Nobie, yah ..I'm already close to him, cause he's my groupmate everytime we're having an activity in Physics, but I there were times that I don't like his attitude ..but I hope it would be better. Inspite of this, I'll miss Shalice!!!





•••before we go home we had a hard time but finished well ofcourse because of the cooperation of our section, when we fix our novel copies for our HRR. I'm very thankful to Shalice, cause when I was called to help at the Tagisan ng Talino she is the one who fixed mine though she's very busy.





•••And its all totally DONE' just some assignments and projects, time to RELAX! [yipee]





till then,

"WE ..Weren't just a Part"

Role of Children in Building a Solid Family
"They Weren't Just a Part"
In a usual family, parents are the one who has the greatest responsibilities. They handle obstacles, and lift up their family for a comfortable life. Inspite of this, children weren't just a part of family, they also have roles in building a solid family. But how could they face these responsibilities if most of the time they were the real problems.
Unlike our parents, we don't have to work hard or earn money to help. In simple way of obeying our parents would be so much enough. Have faith in God. Learn how to sacrifice and love them to the fullest!
