Filipino Language: Long Lasting Identity

     Isang malaking karangalan ang maging isang Pilipino; may sariling wika at malaya. Ang bansang may sariling wika ay malaya katulad na lamang ng Pilipinas. Tayo ay nakaahon mula sa dating lugmok na kalagayan. Ngayon, taas-noo na nating masasabing tayo'y malaya. Tayo ay nagtagumpay.

     The Month of August is the celebration for our language, the Filipino Language. The theme for this celebration is, "Wika Natin ang Daan Matuwid." The Club officers conducted activities which serve as tool to encourage the students to use the Filipino language and to be proud of it. It is really important for us, Fiipinos to learn and give importance to our own language because it is our identity. Our language tied different regions in our country which have different language. It serves as an instrument to us, Filipinos to understand each other and avoid some troubles and misunderstandings.        

     When it comes to the English language, yes it is also important for the Filipinos to be able to communicate with it but, everyone who thinks of himself as Filipino has also the responsibility to love the country of his birth and naturally, his language.It is only the language that seem to be the remaining link of the Filipino spirit and his potential towards a lasting national identity.  So we must be proud of it!

Challenges are Coming ...

THE BEGINNING

          Fourth year life begins. New learning and new discoveries in ICT (Information and Communication Technology) is gained. It was my first time to use blogspot in blogging. It's not my first to have a blogging site but then I still encountered some troubles in exploring this kind of blog site. I was confused with the different parts. In exploring, you really need extra patience. In just a moment of time, I am already familiar with the some menus and parts of the blog.

          I am troubled on how will I construct an essay with the given topics in just one or two nights. It's so hard to manage my time. I'm not that good in constructing an essay. It takes  several days for me to construct an attractive essay.  But then, I tried my best. I tried to make an essay; a good essay. I know my best is not enough to say that I've made a very good essay but at least, I did my best. :)

          Well, it's just the beginning. There are more things coming along my way; more challenging and more adventurous. I am now ready to face the next challenge.

SONA

          President Benigno Simeon Cojuangco Aquino III stated his 4th State Of the Nation Address last July 22, 2013. In his SONA , he mentioned so many things that will really help in the improvement of the country's economy. There are so many projects that he wanted.

       We have different reactions and understandings about this event. I don't believe that PNOY can accomplish all what he have said in his SONA. Of course there will still be things that our President can successfully accomplish but one thing is sure. Not all of us will be benefited. This is because there are still some Filipinos that are not yet reached by the government. They will not feel the the improvements that will be done.

          It's not that I don't trust PNOY's administration. I just wanted to voice out my opinions, understandings and my observations. Yes, he did a lot. But those things are not yet enough to please all his countrymen.
