A Province-wide festival, a half-month-long celebration

-

 

        Kannawidan Festival is a festival celebrated every year, the festival starts on January 28 and ends on February 14. It is a festival in Ilocos Sur commemorating the separation of the two Ilocos provinces back in 1888. This festival is a showcase of indigenous performances, religious rituals, as well cooking demos featuring the best of Ilocano dishes.






        The festival has attracted many tourists domestically and also internationally for them to showcase the activities held in the province. The festival also teaches us the different beliefs, and products of each town were introduced, each town of the province had its booth to which they displayed and at the same time sell their so-called “One Town One Product”, through this certain product of each town was recognized. Many activities were held but the main highlight of the festival or the main purpose of the festival is to commemorate the practices and traditions of our province.

        During the Kannawidan festival, there are some noticeable changes made. First Kannawidan Grounds were no longer located in Tamag but rather in Quirino Stadium. Second, the song of the Festival was also changed. The duration of the Festival was extended. I know there are some changes, but the joy that it gives not just to the Ilocano people but rather to everyone who we celebrate never changes and that is the most special thing about Kannawidan.

Additional Knowledge

  During the 1st Quarter Our teacher taught us a lot of lessons mainly the Origin of the Internet. I have also learned the history of Philippine Internet, she also thought us how to write a blog, The importance of Protocool, different kinds of Search Engines and Search Terms.   There can’t be a quarter where there are no problems I encountered. In the 1st Quarter the main problems I encountered are the difficulty in Answering during quizzes, also I have no knowledge in our topic because I am not that good in computer. I have addressed this challenge by putting more effort in this subject and by doing that I can say that I enjoy this subject a lot because It is fun, plus our teacher is fun, and approachable.   Moving on I hope that I can still learn more about computers because this knowledge is helpful in real life. I know I still have more things to learn especially this is still the 1st of the 4 quarters we have in order to finish junior high school.

How fast it has been, I feel like it was just yesterday when we started Quarter 2 and now I can’t believe that I am now writing a Q2 journey draft. In Quarter 1 we learned about the history of the Internet and now we have learned about Html Tags. Q2 was a 4-month long journey, on the first week we studied Introduction to Html Tags, these days I have no idea about tags and HTML because I have no knowledge or background in computers, which is why I have a high interest in this subject, I want to learn new things. Forward to the Second Week, on these days I have now little knowledge about HTML and tags and that is when we had a quiz I remember I did not even study and I barely passed, I remember being so sad because of my grades but when I heard my classmate proudly shouted a score a bit lesser than mine, I kept wondering why he is still so happy regardless of his score so I asked him, and he said “I don’t care as long as I pass” and I just laughed at him for being so simple-minded, I bel...

The ones who created professionals

  Teachers, Educators, or To Our Second Parents, the one who teaches us in school. From the lowest to the highest grade level they are the one who educates us, guide us, and also care for us. A world without a teacher is nothing but a uneducated world, because teachers are the one's who created professionals, without teachers there will be no Doctors, engineers, lawyers, and many more. I wanna express my gratitude to all of my teachers, for their unconditional care and support for us, their student. There is a teacher whom what he said, I can never forget "The greatest treasure or wealth a teacher can have is to see their student succeed". That message have made my respect for teachers even higher. Honestly before he said that I only see my teachers as a Instructor or a grade giver, but now I see my teachers as a Second Parent because they guide me and give me lessons that can later be used in life.
