The Rest is History

       This question really came up in my mind, along with my friends. "Why do I need to continue studying in CNSHS?" I think for me, I should pursue studying from where I already started. I know, my junior high will gonna end here, but it seems that I'm not going to this school anymore in senior high for some personal reasons. Honestly, I see some signs on why do I need to transfer in other school for senior high. It's not that I don't like CavSci anymore, but look, many of the great teachers of cavsci want to transfer or get out of this school. I think I know the reason but I'm not gonna tell it anymore. I also thought that I'm still studying here in this school because of my friends, that I already built up dreams with.

        Another question "Does the institution really help me in shaping my personality in haul to be an effective individual in the future?" Well this question makes sense. Yes, It really shaped up may personality, not just shaping up but it started to build my step in stone in everything. Having a very excellent behavior is one of the best part of being a sayanista, because not like in other general curriculum schools, CNSHS really shaped up my personality into a better individual with proper humanity and etiquette. I'm also thankful because of my school and I'm so proud of it, to the teachers that became the instrument to shape my personality, thank you very much.

         I felt so blessed because God gave us very brave and patriotic saviors, the fallen 44. I know to myself that I'm not that brave and patriotic to sacrifice my life to my mother dear land but, you, like I can't imagine how you lose your lives to those rebellious people who only know to blame our government and to live for themselves.

I made 9 circles of Cavsci, where all the rules in our school should be followed or else, there will be a penalty according to the level of mistake. This was inspired to the Divine Comedy by the one and only Dante Alighieri,

      He's the best pope I've ever known for my life. We all know that Pope John Paul II is now a saint, but for me Pope Francis or Papa Francesco is a living saint in our generation. I love him so much.
        If you are to ask on what is Pope Francis' affection or greatest impact to me? Well it was his presence and messages to us.

Pope Francis when he was 13 years old.

        He gave us the 10 New Year's Resolution for everybody. Number one is don't gossip. Many of us always want to talk about anybody's life and sometimes, we just want to gossip about them, to criticize their way of living. Sometimes we just fake a story about them to have a hot topic and to talk about it. Number two is to finish our meals. People always want to cook as many as they can like they don't worry about the amount of food cooked. Then after cooking, we can eat the food but sometimes, we mostly throw away those left overs. I think we should think about it, many people and other poor people beg for food but how about us? We're just WASTING and BRAGGING those food or god's graces that many people wanted to have. Number 3 is making time for others. Sometimes we're always having time only for ourselves. In that way, we're becoming selfish because we don't let our own effort to benefit other people. Number four is to choose more humble purchase. Many people always want to buy things that can beat other people's purchase or things, in other case, they're being boastful. Number five is meet the poor in the flesh. When we say "in the flesh" for me it means that you need to meet those people with your heart open and not just being fraud. Number six is to stop judging others. This marked my head. In my mind, I always judge people though they're not even accompanying me or sometimes other people judge me in a different way and vice versa. This is also for other people who had judged or being judged. Number 7 is 'be friend to those who disagree. I hate it when people always hatred you because they don't like the thing you'd said. But Jesus became a very humble person like he accept all the punishments that we are about to receive. So we should try to think about it. Number eight is to make commitments, such as marriage. Not just in marriage, but also in different relationships and promises. Number 8 is to make it a habit to ask Lord. I am alwaya
 doing this, people said "make a wish and he will grant it". It always happen but we should have patience and we all know that God is the best guide for us. And Number ten is to be happy. Being happy is not easy. Sometimes we always pretend to be happy. I think we should be happy all the time, not just being pretentious but deep inside our hearts.
         This was his New Year's resolution when he's telling his homily in the UST or Quirino grandstand I think. I really appreciated those phrases because I know that I will help me in the future. I'm so thankful to God because he use Pope Francis as his instrument for us.

     Statistically, almost 50 % of Filipinos today were already working abroad to gain more success and opportunities like everybody said. If someone will give me a stand for this, I'm gonna say that it's in their choice of living, if they think they have the best opportunity in our country, then stay, if not, then there are many opportunities to work abroad.
     But the bottom line here is, is it better to work abroad or to stay in our country. Let me give you some facts. Many engineers from the Philippines were behind the construction of Disneyland in Hong Kong? Well that's super successive as far as I know. I'm just thinking why are they working abroad? not here to share their skills? To improve their own country? Well I'm just explaining my side because I know Filipinos are skilled workers with intelligent mind but they use it in other countries to have a greater income. We can't blame them because we all know that our country cannot reach other countries standard in their salaries.
        I think this is a good way for Filipinos to share their talents and skills in their own country, to improve and like what our National Hero, Dr. Jose Rizal said,
"He, who doesn't know how to look back where he came from, will never reach his destiny. 
(Ang hindi marunong lumingon sa pinanggalingan ay hindi makararating sa paroroonan.)

So my stand is Filipinos should STAY but I hope that the salary is right for their skills and efforts.
