Last but probably not the least

As the final bell rings, a sense of relief fills the air on the last day of being a Junior High School. No more homework, no more sleepless nights, no more last-minute reviews, and no more “matataranta dahil sa surprise quizzes”. 


But, I know that this is not the end of our journey as a student. We will be facing alot of struggles as we take our steps towards our dream. 


More homeworks; more sleepless nights; and  maybe, this quote “last-minute review” will become “every-minute review”. 


However, let's just take this quote. This is what I've realized while I'm reminiscing all the memories in life. 


“Sumabay ka sa agos nang buhay. SUMABAY huwang MAGPATANGAY” 


Because for me, when you say “Magpatangay sa agos ng buhay”, you will just go with the flow. No efforts, no hardworks and you will not grow and learned from your mistakes. Para bang isa kang tao na nasa bangka, nagpatangay lang sa agos ng alon na walang kasiguraduhan kung saan ka dadalhin. 


But when you say “Sumabay sa agos ng buhay”, you can see the efforts, the hardworks, and the mistakes that turned into lessons. Na kahit gaano kalakas ang agos ng alon, hindi ka basta-basta nagpapatangay. Sinasabayan mo lang ito kahit malalaking alon ang dinadaanan. Dahil bawat hampas ng alon ay nagiging aral sa iyo. Bawat hampas ay siyang magtuturo kung ano nga ba ang tamang tahakin na direkyon at kung gaano kabilis. YOU are MAKING your OWN DESTINY despite of the challenges you're facing.


And that's the difference. Kaya't sana'y piliin natin na sabayan lang ang agos ng buhay ay huwag agad magpatangay. 


Make your own destiny




This is Ma. Anthoneth T. Riberal

A letter for you

Image
    - September 28, 2022      Good day, Mr. President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. I am Ma. Anthoneth Riberal, a student in Ilocos Sur National High School. First, congratulations on your victory. I am hoping, that you will be a good, responsible, and a wise leader. Ask not what our country can do for you – ask what you can do for our country.       We have so many problems in our country. And the first thing I observed, is the serious crisis we are facing right now—the very low learning outcomes among our young and older children and even among those in higher education. Many observers blame the COVID-19 pandemic, however, even before the pandemic struck, the country was already performing badly in learning outcomes, from early education to the higher levels. The deep impact of the pandemic only surfaced the deep cracks that were already shaking the foundations of education as our core institution early on.       And I also obser...
