An Open Journal of a Teacher

Today is the moving-up ceremony of the students in San Miguel High School. I did a lot of things today that made me busy, like helping in preparing for the sandwich later this afternoon, help in organizing ribbons and medals because I was also assigned in preparing the program and I also practiced the students for their choir in "Lupang hinirang" and "Division Hymn."I did a lot of things today and I really enjoyed it.  I don't feel tired. Well, maybe just now. Hehe. Everything happens as expected. Everybody enjoyed the event. Our Guest speaker was Ms. Anjanette Pajantoy, an LLT graduate, who also graduated as Cum Laude. She's super nice and humble :) During the event, we eat bake mac, fruit salad, fried chicken and sandwich. I really enjoyed it. What a very nice event :)

I got menstruation. This is the first day so it's supeeeerrrrr hard. I'm having cramps. :'0 but I shouldn't take a rest nor just stay in my bed because we have lots of paper works to do. I was assign in organizing the honors of every grades. It's already summer. It's just cool that it's easy for us to go home now every weekend because the path is not muddy anymore, but the bad side with this is that we're having water shortage now in San Miguel because everything is already dry. This place is a mountain so it's really hard to find water. We walk a mile just to get water and we usually follow a very long line there and the water drop is just so slow. (deep sigh) :( My experience right now makes me cry deep inside. Grabe, I can see how contented people are here. They're already contented with this life. They neither murmur nor plan in transferring house in the town. Though their life is like this, they're happy and contented with everything. I...

I woke up early so that I can prepare myself in traveling back to San Miguel again. Mama and Papa accompanied me in the highway to find some tricycle in going to Catarman :) I love my parents. I really love them. I'm grateful to have them as my parents :) They are very supportive

I skipped March 16 because there was no electric and the battery of my phone ran out so I don't have flashlight to help me in writing my journal. But it's okay!There's no important thing that had happen also yesterday. Today we have our BCIS (where we enter the grades of the students in the computer). This is such a memorable experience because we stayed in the school for a very very long time. We eat our lunch there, as well as dinner. We finished doing our works at 1:15 in the morning. I'm so tired. Overtime is real! hahaha :D

Today we had our SIP (School Improvement plan) together with some of the Stake holders (parents, students, community officials). We discussed about the things that the school needed for its improvement. It was a whole day activity. We were divided into different groups and I was assigned to be the group mate of the PTA President - Mr. Toni Pedemonte and 2 SSG officers. During that workshop, our group ended with a project "LIGTAS" (Learn In Guidance Through Advance Success) which gives emphasis to having more educational materials in the school that the students really need and an additional building (Student Learning Center) that will help students have the time reading or doing academic recreational activities rather than just going outside and doing things that will not help them excel academically. Our propose project was agreed by other people who were there and we plan to accomplish it by the start of school year 2016. We had our lunch there and we all enjoyed the activi...

Time flies so fast! I just realize what the date is. Being busy "EVERYDAY" makes me forget the day already. It's really good that it's already summer. Though it's so hot and it really makes me sweat every second, it'also good that the way in going to San Miguel is not muddy anymore. Now we only have 1 hour travel from Las Navas to San Miguel, not like before that sometimes it took us 4 hours. I'm grateful for this super hot season because it won't be hard anymore for us to travel.
