GOODBYE 2nd QUARTER...HELLO 3rd!

OCTOBER 19, 2007

Few more days to go and secong grading period will be over..................Again, I have learned wonderful lessons not only educational but, about lessons in our lives.

Second grading is quite hard for me compared to the last one. Here, I can say that projects and requirements kept on pouring like rain and usually I am very rattled. There are assignments that sometimes I missed and quizzes too. But through the kindness of my teachers and through the help of my classmates, I conquered all of that! This time is also my time to excel. I joined dozens of contests mostly on arts and sometimes I'm lucky to win such. My life became also a roller coaster of learnings and feelings this quarter. I said feelings because, there came a time when one of my precious friend left us(meaning our circle of friendship). I'm so terribly hurt whenever I see her with her new "barkada" and I felt guilty because one of the reasons why she left is my attitude and I admit that sometimes I can't help to act like that because all I knew is that nobody is hurt. Though I talked and asked forgiveness to her, I still feel awkward whenever she's around and whenever I attempt to talk to her but, I hope that time will heal the wound. There are also times that I really want to give up on my study but, I always bear in my mind that these are just my stepping stones to excellence so, I never gave up and still live my life to the fullest and in the end I saw the fruit of my labors. It may not be as great as I expected but still I felt content.

Finally, as I bid goodbye to this half of school year and meet another chapter of challenges, new learnings and discoveries this third quarter, I promise to excell more, to be more patient, always cherish and be productive in this small span of time left in this school that I loved for four years, the ever dearest ISNHS and always trust everything to GOD and give my BEST always!!!
