Kannawidan Festival

         
    Kannawidan Festival is celebrated annually at Ilocos Sur. It’s a way of showcasing the culture, having awareness to the traditions and practices, and also with the agricultures and industries of the said province.
   Several activities were lined up for the celebration like the drug race, the parade of antique cars and bikes, T-shirt printing etc. A battle of beauty and brains will also be conducted.
Every town has their own OTOP (One Town, One Product) to sell. During Kannawidan, they are all placed in one area, and people love to go there, buy new crafts, furniture, some decorations, and also foods.  There is also a Carnival for the youth, especially the kids to enjoy. 

Life is a Dream. Realize It.

   At the age of 5, I’ve spent my time in school without any goal. As I grow up, I realized that my dreams will just be dreams if I will not set a goal.
    I have dreams for the future like everyone else have. I want to do so many things. Of course, I want to have a well-paid job as a Psychiatric specialist someday, curing people with mental disabilities. I want to help them love the world again like they did before. Aside from that, I want to become a Civil Engineer, doing all kinds of projects to improve infrastructures and build houses for the shelter less. I believe that we shall all have the same privileges like to have a place to live in.
   At some point, I also want to do other things. I want to travel the world. I’m so curious about the cultures of different countries. I want to know the differences of the people in every country. To sum it up, I also want to fly with the birds, swim with the sharks, step on the moon, and experience life to the limits.
   It’s okay to have big dreams. For us to attain these dreams, set a goal. Have determination. My first goal for now is to have a diploma. This is one of the keys to achieve my other goals.

Change: Start it with Yourself

         Change can be a word that seems akin to a great scheme once intended to a person. Us, the youth of today can change or transform in a way that will make our life more superior. Things should be done in a different way; with an outcome that gives you progress.  But you should start it with yourself.
       Think of your past. Think of your short comings. Think of your failures. Think of those people who once made you feel you’re worthless, you’re useless. Think of those people who have hurt you. Then start thinking how will you change your past into a better one. Think of a way on how you will prove them that you are also worthy and useful.
   I’m not saying that you’ll change just to let the people of your past know what they've than is a mistake. It’s about considering the possibility of the need for a change in the future, for a better future.

To Make an End is to Make a Beginning

          New stuffs for New Year is for some. "New Year. Gonna need to change," some say. There are also people that are very fond in making resolutions but not in fulfilling it. Everyone of us has our own perspective when it comes to New Year. 

     New Year always seemed to me as a beginning of a new cycle. But this year, it will be a way to the path of self-development BUT I never write detailed resolutions. The most important thing is I know how will I manage everything and understanding my plans for the future
        
        But you don't need to wait for a  new year again. It's not necessary to wait for that time for you to start all over. You're not going to begin again next year instead continue what you've started for your self-improvement or self-development until the end.
