An Afternoon with William Shakespeare

            That afternoon, I was in the corner of the most famous library, reading books of my favorite author- William Shakespeare. Actually, I was half asleep that time. Until I didn't realize I was snoring. The angry librarian approached me and told me the rules over and over again. Kinda annoying, I know but I have no choice to obey. I was really falling into sleep but an unexpected event happened.

            The pages of the book started moving on its own. I was startled I could not move and the next thing I knew, I was in the book. Yes, with William Shakespeare, that is. He waved and smiled at me. I know he was glad to see me- a very fan of him. I approached him quickly and asked the things I wanted to know. I asked him what was his inspiration for those stories and he pointed out his family. We sat on a bench and he gave me a piece of paper and pen. He also had one and I realized he wanted to play a game with me. One of us had to be the winner- that is having the most number of adjectives that relates with the one he will write on the paper. This is a challenge for me, I know. He wrote down the word “wisdom”. I was mental blocked at first because I saw him scribbling a lot of words. Without realizing, the time was up and I was able to accomplish half of the number of words he wrote. I see the look on his face- he was not disappointed but rather impressed of me. Though I am not certain of the reason, I know he figured out that I did my best.

            Seconds later, someone was waking me up. It was the angry librarian. Aw, so it was only a dream. I was fascinated of what happened and about to fit into my mind that what happened is not real but suddenly, an image on the book blinked at me- it was William Shakespeare.

Dear she,

          I have known you for many years already and yet I haven’t told you what I feel. You may not believe me but behind the times we shared, moments we talked, I felt affection towards you. I may be that shy type of person for I am afraid of your rejection. Every time I see your sparkling eyes and bright smile, my mood is lifted up. Those things made my day complete already even without you putting much effort into it. I like the way your hair sways and the way you cry over simple things. I like the way you are and there’s no questioning to it. You may not be the perfect girl in this world, but to me you are already perfect. You may not be like those girls who put make up and wear dresses but simplicity is the best to describe the way you dress and I like it that way. I hope our friendship won’t change even though I confessed to you and I wanted us to stay the same. Thanks for all the memories we shared and I promise to treasure them forever.

Happy Teacher’s Day!!!

    In the month of October, there’s a day that is very special, a unique day when we are celebrating for the World’s Teachers Day. This is a day where we can express our thanks to the persons who dedicated their life in teaching students. Persons who sacrificed not only their times but sometimes, also their personal needs just for us to learn. In my eleven years of my studies, I already met more than twenty different teachers. But in all of them, there is really one teacher who admires the most for being kind and supportive. My second year adviser who helped me a lot in my studies.

          Mrs. Christina del Rosario who we always call “Ma’am Tenny”. At first, my impression to her was she’s a teacher who is not close to her students because she is strict, but I was totally wrong. She is an interesting companion and we even eat our lunch with her. She also loves taking pictures with us especially with my girl classmates. She also shares a lot of story with us during our vacant time. Yes, she is strict but that is just in terms of our projects. She is also not that kind in giving high grades in graded recitation but that leads me in studying harder to attain higher grades.

          Ma’am Tenny was been a very good and interesting teacher for us. In this teacher’s day, first I want to greet her Happy Teacher’s Day and after that, I will thank her a lot. Thank you ma’am for all of your hard-works and sacrifices. Also, including my classmates, we sorry if we gave you some headaches. And after all of these, I’ll tell her all of that she has been one of my superheroes who bring me in the right way oflife.

National Career Assessment 

Examination

Looking and searching for a career is not that easy. This is especially when you don’t know what job you fit in. And maybe in this time, a lot of persons are not happy in the job they grabbed. Maybe that is because they lack of knowledge or they don’t have interests in what they are doing. And because of this problem, the government introduced the National Career Assessment Examination for third year high school students.

This NCAE is given to all third year high students in the Philippines to help them in choosing their careers. This is a test where the students will be given a test booklet to answer. And after answering, the results will be given to inform the students about this. The students now can decide if they will still choose their own future.

Because of this test, students will have ideas in what course they will take when time come. So the persons in charge of this are just caring for our future. And if that’s the case, everyone should take this seriously and also to study hard. They take this seriously and also to study hard. They believe that we will be the future of our country so with their help, let us be a good individual. And let us be thankful for that NCAE.

Intramurals

Cavite National Science High School’s intramurals is always filled of fun. Because of this intrams, students are being happy because in these days, they can play and enjoy without stress. They don’t need to worry because they just need to be sports to earn the respect of other year levels. Also an event which everyone enjoy playing, cheering, laughing, and also officiating. This is not only an event for students but also for the teachers who also enjoy a lot.

This kind of event is held not only for enjoyment but a big objective for students. Because of this, students develop their physical, social and emotional abilities. Talents and skills will also shown in this kind of events. There will be also bonding among students and teachers. And the best thing is that, the year level which is the best in sports will be known.

Having winners after every game is normal but having new friends and meeting a lot of people which maybe younger or elder than you is not present in all games. So, playing in Cavite National Science High School’s intramurals is one thing we should be proud of. And losing or winning the game does not matter as long as you enjoy and you know that did your best in the game. There is always a right time for an event to occur and God has always a purpose why something happened.

Hey!!! Daydreamer...

It was a fine day when Mr. Time N. Space went to his laboratory to finish his first ever teleport. “This is almost done!” Mr. Time said happily then suddenly a voice shouted they were garrulous so Mr. Time looked outside and there he saw to knave trying to start an affray, Mr. Time yelled at them to make them quiet “Hey you two, you are disturbing the peace around here, go away!” he shouted and the two run away. “Thank goodness” he said. When suddenly “huh? What’s happening?” he said the Teleport started to malfunction because of the sounds then Mr. Time was absorbed and teleported to another place.

        

       As he regain consciousness he saw a great crowd and a church it seems like a baccalaureate mass because of the students wearing their toga, he stood up and walked as he walk he saw a group of chefs enow cooking for the graduates. Then the teleport appeared absorbing Mr. Time and taking him to another place but this time he did not lose his consciousness so he knew the place was not their hometown, it was like a fairy tale like Alice in Wonderland the ants are cyclopean and the mountains are small so as he arrived to the fantasy place he walked around and saw weird things first he saw a serious buffoon and a noisy sleuth wearing a weird coiffeur so Mr. Time ran because of fear, next he saw a humongous canapé and parfait arguing because of their entourage so he just pause to catch his breath then ran again, as he ran he saw the teleport so he quickly entered wishing that he could go back to his hometown but it is also a mistake, when he entered the teleport only short warped into a cupboard where he saw a group of claque and a teacup saying its harangue it was quite long but the mass stayed and as the teacup went down the podium a teapot went to the stage and started saying weird things so some of the utensils boycott it leaving the coy ones in front of the stage

         Then suddenly everything turned into black and then the only thing I can hear is “Hey!” and I woke up and see my classmates looking at me so it seems that I was only dreaming. Well then that is something weird

Comedy of Errors

Comedy of Errors

The Comedy of Errors is one of Shakespeare's earliest plays, but it is wrong to think of it as an apprentice work. It was first printed in the First Folio in 1623, and the earliest known performance is recorded to have been at Gray's Inn, one of London's law schools, on December 28th, 1594. However, thematic resemblances to other plays have led many scholars to believe that it was written years earlier than this performance.

For me as the story starts it is so confusing because there are two sets of twins. The twin of Antipholus of Ephesus and Antipholus of Syracuse constitute the first set of twins while Dromio of Ephesus and Dromio of Syracuse constitute the second set of twins. It becomes more confusing when Antipholus of Syracuse came to Ephesus. Each one of them doesn’t know if they are talking the right person. Even the wives were very confused. But as the story ends we can get one important lesson which is “A small mistake can result into a larger mistake”.

This story is really an interesting one. I would recommend this to others and I’m sure that they will also enjoy reading or watching this piece.

Fluency in the English Language vs. Mastery of the Native Language …

Fluency in the English Language vs. Mastery

of the

Native Language …

          Language is a body of words and the systems for their use common to a people who are of the same community or nation, the same geographical area, or the same cultural tradition. Different lands have different languages. People learn other languages different from their mother tongue because it is needed to accomplish their work but it does not mean that they have forgotten their native language.

        

      If I were to choose between fluency in the English language and mastery of the native language I will choose fluency in the English language. I will choose that because if you are not fluent in this language you cannot understand other languages. English is considered the major languages in the world. If we are all fluent we can keep pace to the other countries. We can also be more competitive. It is also used in the translation of words. Being a Science High School student I should be fluent in the English language.

         

         

   I will prefer more fluency in the English language because also communications to other country English language is always used.

                    

To Be or Not To Be?

To be or not to be: that is the question

In this world we need to think for decision

Is it time to go?

Or is it time to stay here all alone?

 To be or not to be: that is the question

To strive or not to strive for perfection

To be a better son or not to be a better son

To be a better student or not to be a better student

Every person must decide

Think twice for what is right

It is up to us to answer

For we know ourself better than the others

The Beauty of the Night Sky

I can feel the coldness of this bright night.

The night sky is full of stars that are really bright

And also the full moon on the side,

That is really gleaming and gives us light

Those shining stars that remind me someone

Who may already be sleeping at this time

A very special friend of mine

Who always make me smile

I want to see a falling star

And I will wish that someday I’ll be a star

And also that I will be able to fulfill my dream

That someday I’ll be a famous engineer

The moon is really big and bright

I can see the light here near my side

And seems to tell us to sleep tight

And also greets us a very good night!

              "A Comic Relief"

        A good love story for all of us should have a happy ending. Stories like Sleeping Beauty and Cinderella. But, Romeo and Juliet is different. It is a tragedy type of drama, written by the famous writer, William Shakespeare. But, why don't we make a comic relief out of this piece.

          When Romeo heard about the fake death of Juliet he immediately went to saw Juliet's tomb.He saw Paris laughing. Romeo was so confused. He asked Paris "Why are you laughing?". Paris answered " Now, Juliet was dead I have no more rival for your heart.". Romeo was really shocked. "No..no... I don't want gays like you. And I only have one love and that's  Juliet.". Oh.. that's really hurt. I should end my life, because no one is truly loving me. He gets his dagger and  he tried to commit suicide but Romeo restrained him. "No.. please stop. If my love will save you, i will love you forever." Paris was really happy that time. "But, please get out of this place now", Romeo said. Paris ; left the place jumping for joy not knowing that Romeo lied to him. Suddenly Juliet woke up. He saw Romeo getting the poison. She shout loud, stopping Romeo. Romeo run to Juliet and told her, "We need to go". They went to a far place and live happily. Until Paris' last breathe he was looking for Romeo.

         Not every story ends the way we want. There are stories ending with happy ending and there also stories ending with a death.

Rewriting the Ending

        Romeo and Juliet is one of the best works of William Shakespeare. It is one best example of a tragedy. A tragedy has many differences between some stories. A tragedy leads to a death of a very important character in the story. While stories that we’re reading before always have a happy ending. 

          At the end of the story, Romeo went to Juliet's tomb he saw Juliet's unconscious body. But because didn't receive the letter from Juliet telling him that her death is fake, Romeo drunk the poison that led to the end of his life. When Juliet woke up it's too late she saw the dead body of Romeo. She also tried to sip the poison from the mouth of  Romeo only showing her everlasting love for him. But she failed. When she saw the dagger, the dagger of Romeo she immediately stuck it in her chest.

          

           If I will be given a chance to change or alter the ending of this work, I will change it. I will not because, for me the ending is already good. Good for the reason it is showing the everlasting love between two lovers. A love that can do anything just for his/her love one. 

     Family - Foundation of Strength in Life

As you search the meaning of family through the net it has different meanings like. A family  is a group of people affiliated by consanguinity, affinity, or co-residence. In most societies it is the principal institution for the socialization of children.  Anthropologists most generally classify family organization as matrilocal (a mother and her children); conjugal (a wife, husband, and children, also called nuclear family); and constructional (also called an extended family) in which parents and children co-reside with other members of one parent's family. In dictionary, family is defined as a group of people closely related by blood. It is also defined as a group consisting of individuals descended from a common ancestry. 

    My ideal family is just as simple as my family where I belong now. It is composed of few members like 3 to 4 members only. A loving, caring and a kind mother who can take a good care to her children. Also who can manage well the budget for the family. A strong and hardworking father who can provide a better income for the family. He should be also concerned for his partner and for her children. Children who can listen to their parents, who can share any problem to each of everyone in the family.

   

Family is really important to everyone of us. Here, we can get strength whenever we're in life. Here we can share our problems, feelings and many more.

But for us   to achieve a family like this, we should make good steps starting this time. We also need to build a good relationship to each member of the family. But we need good family bonding for to build a good relationship to each member.  Through this we can establish a good family and to be be  good citizens of this country.

We all grow up with the weight of history on us.  Our ancestors dwell in the attics of our brains as they do in the spiraling chains of knowledge hidden in every cell of our bodies.  ~Shirley Abbott

A Hero in the Family

          Father, he is the male parent in the family. The one who provides an income for the family. The who is known “ Ang Haligi ng Tahanan”. For me he is a best friend. A best friend whom you can share your problems. He acts in a protective, supportive and responsible way towards their children. He is the person we should thank.

      

     My father is just an ordinary person. A person who can do simple things, but for me it’s not just simple but incredible. As a security guard he had given us a good life. When he’s off-duty he is in our house. He’s doing household chores, like cleaning and washing clothe. Sometimes he wakes up early to cook for us. And I’m very thankful for having a good father like him.

      This Father’s day, I will tell him how I am very thankful for being his child. He raised me as a good man. A person who fears God. The same time I’ll tell him sorry. Sorry for the wrong  things I've done. For not following his orders. I have no more requests to him, except more continuing loving and forgiving me. 

   

A New Stage of  Being High School Student

               Being a high school student is just a part of our life. And my first two years in high school just passed by so fast. There’s something in my mind telling that it will be hard for me in Third Year Level.To be in junior level, I have new expectations.But having ideas about being a junior, seems that it is not that hard in some ways. I am not still that confident. Until, the opening of classes came.

          

          I am so excited about having new set of everything. Like new sets of teachers. First I taught that Mrs. Soriano would be our adviser, but it is not her who came in our room at the first day. It’s Mrs. Louella Malimban. Having her as our new adviser is still OK for me because she’s kindhearted. When our teacher in Araling Panlipunan entered our room, I told my self that she’s not that kind and she is strict. Having six sessions in her subject, I can say that I met my expectation to her is true based on what I am experiencing. Ma’am Arceo our teacher in math is so good. That day we don’t have our first class in Chemistry because Ma’am April was not yet there at that time. So we spent our chemistry time in talking about many things. That day I had my lunch with my friends. During at our class in 3pm-4pm which is English, I was so tensed because of hearing many things about our teacher. Things like she was so strict but I can say that she is not strict because she was doing such things for our own sake also. But not all of our teachers are new for me, like Mrs. Tolentino, Mr. Ces and Mrs. Bautista.

                  

                   After these days, I am enjoying this new stage in my life. In some ways it will be difficult when I almost there in the end. But due to the help of my family, friends and God knows I also like to overcome this. I know that it is just a step through excellence. And to reach my dream. To be a successful  engineer is my dream. That's why I need to be stronger.
