The More, The Merrier

    When the holiday season comes, it’s usually hard not to be swept away by the hustle and bustle of things like gift shopping, home decoration, and the preparation of festive meals. However, when we take a moment to slow down and think about it, we come to the conclusion that Christmas is, in fact, about nothing else but time spent with others, and about making those memories that will be the bearers of joy and meaning in our lives.



    To celebrate Christmas with family, friends, and even the wider community is always a very significant event. The laughter, sharing of stories, and passing of traditions remind us that being together is the main point of the season. Most of the time, doing simple things like cooking together, giving each other presents, or just being in each other’s company turns out to be the most loved and unforgettable parts of Christmas.



    The season also brings forth the clarion call for the practice of good traits like kindness, love, and acceptance of all. Celebration with others has the power of opening our hearts to understanding and compassion, thus reminding us to reach out to the people around us. The joy that is shared becomes multiplied and hence makes Christmas a time of connection rather than isolation.

    Though it is quite easy to be concentrated on the material aspect of the holidays, the true spirit of Christmas is still in the togetherness. It is in love, true connection, and the important moments we share with one another. To keep the spirit of Christmas alive and to make the season really magical is by celebrating Christmas with others.

The Last Chapter of Junior High School

________________________ Entry #1 ________________________ The Last Chapter of Junior High School                  Hello everyone, let me introduce myself. I am Warren James P. Giron, and I am part of 10-Marconi at Ilocos Sur National High School. I was born on May 20, 2010, and I am currently 15 years old. My mother's name is Ruby Pader Giron, and my little sister's name is Olivia Isabelle Giron. Some of my interests are math and playing games.               One of my greatest fears is people judging me. Every action I take, I always think about how people will judge me for doing it. This makes me nervous around people, as I try to avoid doing things that can embarrass me and judge me for it. Because of this, I often avoid interacting with people or feel awkward around them.         I have to overcome this part of me because I am a student of the Special Science Class. As a...

What I Have Done So Far

    ________________________ Entry #4 ________________________ What I Have Done So Far           A lot has happened in this first quarter of being a grade 10 student. I have learned a lot of valuable information from my teachers. I've learned that I need to be serious in my studies as I move on to more advanced and harder lessons in my subjects. I have also learned that getting enough sleep is important because lack of sleep makes you less focused and tired, speaking from experience.          I have encountered some bumpy roads traversing this first quarter. One problem I noticed is that I am cramming and procrastinating projects and assignments, specifically my thematic project and blog posts. As a result, I spent my night cramming for my projects, which disrupted my sleep schedule and caused me to doze off in class. This problem greatly affects me, making the quality of my assignments and projects mediocre at best, and I...
