Peace makes the world go round.


Peace is what each country seeks for. But more than that is given. 

Peace is not the only thing that U.N. aims for, a lot more is being offered to millions of people. Celebrating its 74 years of existence is the United Nations Day. Simultaneously, the school becomes one with the world in celebrating it every month of October with its highlight, the Search for Mr. and Ms. United Nations. 

"Indigenous Languages Matter for Sustainable Development, Peace Building, and Reconciliation" is the theme for this year. The word peace is there and it goes to show that peace is what the United Nations Organization aim for, specifically world peace. Not only that but the organization has a lot more to give to each member. Founded by 51 members,  it aims to do lots of things.

Here are 3 big reasons why we should join in the celebration. Firstly, the U.N saves lives. An example is the U.N.'s programs women in promoting maternal and child health that saves the lives of 30 million women in a single year. Secondly, the organization helps refugees. The United Nations assists at most 38 million refugees saving them from wars and conflicts. And last but not the least,  U.N. fights climate change and promotes sustainable development. 

 Not only one, two, or three are the goals and objectives of this certain organization. Different aims but only one reason. For the unity of the world.

Fast forward. Finding a stable job. Earning for dream house and dream car. As a junior high school completer, I should already be envisioning myself as my profession for the future years. The earlier descriptions are the things that I might be doing after college graduation. After how many years of studying and reviewing, me doing what I like will be the fruit of it all. Being successful in life is my dream, together with my family since they are my inspiration.  I'd rather be focused more on my work. Other things have their own time like having relationships. Analyzing the components of substances are much more fun in my opinion. Chemistry is my favorite branch of Science after all.  It's still a bit confusing as to what profession I would really like to do in the future. The important thing for me it's that I can achieve all of my dreams and cherish every moment together with my family and friends. Even if I'll be at the peak, I'll still remember...

"Everyone thinks of changing the world, but no one thinks of changing himself." -Leo Tolstoy The world has already changed and still, it continues to change. A lot of people wish to change the world yet they don't think of changing themselves first. Issues and concerns are increasing in number. People would comment about helping in fixing the world bu their words are empty. They keep on saying things as I may quote, "Change is needed", "The world needs change".

Before, I was also a part of the group who always goes on and on about change being a must. But now, I realized that, that thinking I had was immature for requesting the having of change without changing yourself is quite ironic if you ask me. My mindset now is more on focusing on myself first then making a ripple. Metamo...

Culture and heritage. Kannawidan is an Ilocano term which means feast of heritage and culture. This year marks the 202nd foundation of the province that separated from Ilocos Norte by a Royal Decree on February 2,1818. Kannawidan is an annual celebration of the province of Ilocos Sur. This festival of Ilocanos aims to restore the habit they have and showcase their inheritance from preceding generations. Kannawidan is derived from the Ilocano term "tawid" meaning inheritance. Just like in the previously held Vigan City Fiesta, there is also a food and trade fair located at Tamag grounds and the products are more diverse since it features different goods coming from the 22 towns of Ilocos Sur. There are also rides that people will enjoy. Additionally, Kannawidan is much more let's say extravagant in a way since artists come to the province and Ilocano fans have a chance to meet them up close. Highlights of this festival are the Saniata ti Ilocos Sur, Sania...
