Spectral Phantasm

ICT has always one of my favorite subject because I love computer things. I've been using Photoshop since Grade 6 or Grade 7 but my skills before then was not as good as today. However, ICT class will be missed and the Maxconi Family S.Y. also. After four years of ups and downs, misunderstandings, fun, enjoyment and all other things, our Junior High School life has ended. We will surely miss the bonds formed in and out of the classroom, the memories we had, the jokes, the cries and all sacrifices we had. And for this time it is my last blog for the Junior High School. We will be forever friends. Francis Giovani Piedad signing off.                     

I am still wondering and not sure what course to take on college but I want to pursue Science and Math related courses. Dream is the reason why we all want to finish schooling and to be successful someday. Dream keeps us from fighting. Dream is a thing that needs sacrifice to achieve it. Our dream should make us inspired to keep going. Dream makes our fighting spirit stronger. Dream makes us determined. Our dreams define who and what we are on the future.

The foundation day of Ilocos Sur National High School was postponed due to the 2019-nCoV threats and was celebrated on another day. Nevertheless, it was successful day to celebrate our foundation day even on the other day of the month. Parade was done around the city of Vigan headed by the the school employees, and the royal court. After the parade, we showcased our dancing talents through calisthenics and we enjoyed so much and after that we ate as a class and had a salu salo inside the classroom.

Ilocos Sur has been a great destination of tourist because it is where Vigan City is located. And this last week of January to first week of February is the time for the whole Ilocos Sur Province to celebrate its foundation day. Ilocos Sur is a province is the Spanish Colonial Era. Ilocos is a big province during those times. However, a royal decree was released and this decree separates the Ilocos province is into smaller provinces. On February 2 this was formally done and it became Ilocos Sur and Ilocos Norte. Moreover, the festival in Ilocos Sur is Kannawidan which means inheritance and in the Ilocos Norte counterpart is Tan-ok which means greatness. Kannawidan showcases the rich and unique culture of the whole province of Ilocos Sur from the upland to lowland parts of the province.
