Some people dream of success, while other people get up every morning and make it happen. "Live your values, pursue your dreams, and follow your passions" this really implies the true ways we must do to have the best future life we could possibly have.
Over my life time, I would like to achieve many things but there are more important things that I would like to accomplish. I have been exhilarating by my dreams from the day I knew why I came into this world to so far and even in future which makes me different from others. It is a goal, an aim, a direction for my life. It is not strange from the outside but from the inside. Everyone has dreams. Whether they become a doctor, teacher, engineer, architect and many more. Just think positively because possibilities are endless. For me, I plan to become a nurse someday. Maybe at the age of 27, I will settle down and marry someone. I would also want to travel around the world. At my age, that's just what i'm planning for my future but we don't know the possibilities that will happen on my future. I'll just study hard to make it happen and never give up.
As you can see, my dreams aren't that big. My parents expect a lot of me so I will strive hard to meet their expectations. My dreams are what keeps me going and is keeping me fighting.

ISNHS Foundation Day
Foundation day is not new to others. It is a celebration in a particular school or university. It is a day when the ancestors of the school or university has been found.
In my 4 years of studying at our school, I have been experiencing high school days. In my opinion, It's very fun and enjoyable because we are able to perform a field demo where in every grade levels will perform a dance number. There is also a Mr. and Ms. ISNHS. Though it is not full of activities and booths, I still enjoyed every bit of it because I'm with my classmates and friends. We shared many laughter and smiles watching our other schoolmates dance. We also cheered them. It's a bit tiring because it is too hot when we performed our dance but nevertheless, it's awesome. It is nice watching our adings dance and also our ates and kuyas in the senior high school. We also watched our teachers dance and be able to see their hidden talents in dancing.
Overall, I had fun, my friends had fun, everyone had fun, then I'm happy. Even if I'm experiencing it every year and it's my 4th year already, it's still have the different fun that's giving us. The feelings always changes, it is like different every year.

Change: Starts With Me
Change. It is a big word that every human is in hard time figuring what to change. It's like when your getting mature, it changes you. Maturity starts when we own our mistakes and take necessary action for correcting them.
Change, however, does not always occur in isolation. One person's transformation is sustained by another because we need each other. Changing means it is on your own will and not others. It's not like when other people tell you to change because they don't want your attitude or anything about you. It's up to us if we want to change ourselves. In changing ourselves, it also means that we need to cope up in our surroundings again. If I will change then maybe the place where I'm in will let me again adopt it. Especially when people are the one who insisted to change myself. The whole me will start to change in a good way. Not all people change in a good or better ways, maybe some changed in a wrong way. Changing in a wrong way means also hurting and disappointing your own self because we all know that we change to be better, to start a new and be a good person not only inside but also in the outside.
Change for the better and stop the wrong doings. Implementing good things means helping and encouraging others to also do it..

Updated Version Of Me
Every new year, you'll see the cliche caption that says "New Year, New Me" in the social media. It is not that every human can be their new self, right? Everyone of us is not perfect and have differences.
Instead of saying that this new year, it'll be the new me, I will say that this new year, it will be the updated version of me. I think it's about time we put this whole idea that a new year makes us a different person because it isn't. The only thing that really changes is the date but ourselves, it's up to us if we'll change for the better or to stay who we are and who we want us to be. This new year, I want to update myself by doing things that will benefit me and to help me grow and to be a good person. First, I will make self-care a priority. Self-care isn't just one thing and is not the same thing to everyone. Basically, self-care means taking time to focus on things that contribute to your well-being. In the past years, I've been very careless with myself. I got my elbow dislocated and nearly locked myself up at our bathroom. This year, I'll try making self-care a priority. Just remember that everybody's not perfect and also remember to have compassion for ourselves. Don't over-react because there are going to be days when you'll mess up, just like me. But it's okay, perfection is overrated anyways. The second one is important for me. Breath. When I feel getting stressed out or anxious in things, I forget to breath, not literally, but to rest. This past few days, I found out that letting out a long sigh is so overwhelming. Taking a few deep breaths throughout the day can help me relax and find more presence and peace especially when I'm stress because of school works. The next one is gratitude. Because gratitude is the attitude. Instead of counting all the things that gone wrong, always be grateful for a healthy body, home, school, the sunshine, the flowers, friends and family around you. I'll try to count all the things that go right and watch things transform. I know that all those problems will turn into great opportunities. I know that by focusing on what we have, we get more of that back. Lastly, I want to surround myself with things that makes me happy. If it doesn't deserve me, I'll let it go. If it's not worth it, let it go. Life is too short and way too uncertain to spent it surrounded by things that will drain me, that will hurt me. I want to focus on things that makes me feel loved, fulfilled and happy.
New Year is not all about getting your resolutions done and fulfilled. It's not the time of the year that all you ant is what you get, because let's face it, the "new year, new me" pressure means we tell ourselves off for it and make ourselves feel guilty. Which, in turn, only puts us off keeping to resolutions in the long-run. And in the end, most of us have thought "What's the point?", when breaking one so early on right? Let's stop with the resolutions. Let's stop it with the "new year, new me" and just focus on the "new me".

True Essence of Christmas
It's the most wonderful time of the year. The time of the year where everyone's happy, blessed and loved. It's the only time of the year where everyone will gather and be jolly. It's the time when God was born .
What is the true essence of Christmas? J. C Penney wrote, 'Christmas is not just a time for festivity and merry making. It is more than that. It is a time for the contemplation of eternal things. The Christmas spirit is a spirit of giving and forgiving.' Christmas is not all about merry making. We must also spare time to reflect on the essence of the period which is the love of God for humanity. Some may have planned to marry this year, to buy a new car or to move into their new apartment. We should count ourselves lucky to be alive to see this Christmas . An another year that's ending. This should be a period of gratitude to God for sparing our lives and counting us among the living . It should equally be an opportunity for us to mend our ways with God so that we will not be found wanting.
The true spirit behind Christmas is that of giving and sharing .

Equal Rights, Equal Opportunities.
Every human being was created equally. Equal rights, freedom, and love. We should show respect to others and also self-respect. We are obligated to be kind to one another and to love each other. Love everyone not hurt each other because that's the right thing to do.
In this century where everyone are free frik doing what they want, there arrare still harassments and discriminations going on. We are free from evil and cruelty in the past. We should have our own rights because every human being was given the rights to choose what they want and what they love. God has given us our own rights because that's part of our existence in this world full of cruelty, judgment and injusticeinjusticeinjustice. Each and everyone of us was given rights that's supposed to be equal. We deserve equal rights because we are all human that God created. From that time that he created us, he gave us our rights and as we grow, he gives us many opportunities. We should be thankful in that but now that the world is changing, we can't feel the equality in everything. Equal rights, equal opportunities and also the gender equality.
We have the right to have our own equal rights and get equal opportunities because we are all human after all. We all have rights and opportunities and it should be serve equal.
