My Teacher, My Hero

"Success Dealers"

Teachers make the future professionals.  As others say, "Teaching is the noblest profession."  Well, I believe it is true.  Without teachers, there are no doctors, nurses, engineers and even accountants.  I owe my knowledge to my teachers -- my dearest heroes, my loving saviors.  But why are they really called 'heroes'?

I am not who I am today without them.  They molded me into a better person.  I cannot understand books without them teaching me.  They saved me from being down. They lifted me up and helped me reach the shining star up above.

They are our parents in school -- our second parents.  Although we may be naughty at times,  they still show they love and care for us students.  They deserve plaques of appreciation, congratulations and thank which will make them satisfied with their works.  Even if their salaries are not much high and is enough for their families only, they still manage to give their best to their dear students, though they are not in good moods.

After all their sacrifices, a single day for them is worth it.  They sustained the everyday needs of their students.  And as a way of thanking them and their good deeds, we show our love and care for them.  We owe a lot from them especially our knowledge.  Anytime and anywhere, they are our colleagues, our friends, our teachers, our heroes.

Teachers are really our heroes -- the unsung heroes of the golden arena.  They are the success dealers.  They are the original keys!

I did it!

I was expecting a life full of problems and intricacies. But then, fourth year life, as the elders say, is an enjoyable and interesting journey. High school life is not complete without enjoyment because these moments of happiness are to be treasured upon graduating in high school.

I know very well that everyone of us learned and discovered new things which are useful in our day to day existence. I've learned to be more diligent because being a senior student is not easy. I realized that academics is composed of diligence and hardwork. So therefore, I should be more hardworking and not an easy-go-lucky-teenage-girl.

The learnings and discoveries are those that include my notebook but I would always keep in mind the things that stayed in my heart and in my brain that I will forever treasure. I knew a lot about the topics we discussed. But I knew more about the things I experienced during the discussions. I learned not to waste even a second because every second is useful like how useful a drop of water is.

And in the first grading period, I encountered such problems like having sleepless nights and tiring days. I experienced a life full of stress. But then, it's not the time to give up. I have to be braver and be stronger like how I became in my previous years in high school. Because blogging is a requirement in our ICT IV, I sometimes get stuck writing drafts for my posts in my blogger. But I successfully finish those not in a snap of my finger.

These challenges, I know, are a part of enjoyment. After these hardships, I will be walking with my parents on the stage, taking a bow and thanking those people who will be sending their warmest congratulations. These difficulties should serve as my inspiration in doing better in my studies. I should not be stressed and depressed because I have to face these challenges in order to attain success in the future.

Difficult times are really hard to face but I know there are people who are ready to help me in times of trouble. And after these difficulties, I assure these people that I will be acknowledging their big help and contribution to my success in my chosen field. However, if I will not be attaining the life I want to have, I'd still be thanking God and these helpful people in giving me nice words and do not underestimate my abilities.

Moving on, I will be much better next time so that people around me will be satisfied and be proud of who really I am. I will be much better and stronger next time and try to improve those childish acts that I became last time. Hopefully, I'll be able to overcome those difficulties and intricacies of life.

"Caring for the Language and Environment with Neverending Love"

Language and environment may be interpreted as two different words with different meanings; but these two words are interconnected with each other. Nowadays, we live in a generation where love of language and environment are much needed. But how can these two words--language and environment be together as one?

While enriching our national language, the Filipino language, we must also unite to be responsible citizens who are truly mindful of what we do everyday to protect the environment. We must be conscious enough in flourishing the language and increasing awareness on environmental issues.

The Filipino language is an efficient key in promoting the welfare of Filipino citizens and in encouraging our fellowmen to join in keeping our environment beautiful, gorgeous and a perfect place to live in. Let us always reminisce that the language and the environment are both God-given gifts that we should protect and love as a sign of thanking Him.

Giving importance to our language and loving our environment are some of the ways on how we can show our love to our beloved country. The Philippines is a democratic country which means that we are free to do anything that we like. But it doesn't mean at all that we may do things that are not pleasing to this nation. We are not free and our conscience will never stop disturbing us if we will destroy the God-given gifts bestowed upon us. We must take responsibility for these things and we must consider how much God loves us.

Language and environment go together. Without language, we are not able to communicate with one another; thus, leading the citizens to misunderstanding and sometimes it causes quarrellings.

The Filipino language is needed in order to conserve and protect our environment. We still have many chances to change the present. We can do this. Yes, we can!
