First Half of the Expedition

I must say that this quarter was an interesting one. Ms. Evelyn R. Vera Cruz, our teacher in Information and Communications Technology, was able to introduce our topic for this second quarter: HTML Tags. I felt a lot of mixed emotions during our first week. Maybe because this was entirely new to me, or maybe I was eager to embark on a new adventure that has been waiting for me. I am not certainly sure about that. Fast forward, everything was smooth and steady—not until the drapes of reality fell down. There goes the number of exercises, activities, and quizzes we have had, and of course, it was exhilarating, but it was entirely fun. Even though I was outside of the classroom at times because, you know, journalism calls, I can still say that this quarter was spectacular.

 

After the first grading, another wave of education had started yet again. Ms. Vera Cruz had first started to discuss what HTML is, HTML tags and their kinds, basic HTML and heading tags, and the World Wide Web Consortium. Next, she also introduced us to break and horizontal rule tags and HTML text formatting tags. In addition, she was also able to give us an insight into what hyperlinks, hrefs, and target attributes are and how they work. Furthermore, she was able to discuss with us the three different font attributes, which are font color, font size, and font face. And lastly, we tackled the attributes of HTML images, such as the image tag and src attribute, the alt attribute, aligning images, and adjusting the sizes of images. I was also able to self-study regarding HTML frames. Self-studying was one of my refuges since I was unable to meet my teacher daily, but luckily, Ma’am Vera Cruz was an angel enough to understand my situation and answer questions I had in mind regarding our lessons.

 

I am blessed and grateful enough to have satisfactory scores whenever we have quizzes, given the circumstances I am in right now. The emoji that would represent the feeling I am having right now would be the rainbow emoji. It would be the perfect symbol for my insight for the next two quarters, filled with ecstatic, uplifting, and vivid moods, hoping for the best. Now that this chapter has yet to come to an end, I feel motivated to unfold another journey once again. I have completed the first half, and I am over the moon to embark on a new journey with the lessons I have acquired as my sword and shield in a battle. Finally, this got me thinking: what are the adventures patiently waiting for me ahead?

He Who Dares and Dreams

     A normal adolescent that lives a calm and colorful life. That is me. I am David Aeron Y. Arellano, aged 15. I was born at Gabriela Silang General Hospital, now Ilocos Sur Provincial Hospital - Gabriela Silang, in the City of Vigan, Ilocos Sur. I am currently residing at the City of Vigan with my parents and three elder sisters. For my elementary education, I studied at Vigan Nan Chong School and fortunately, I graduated as the Class Valedictorian of our class. For my secondary education, I am currently enrolled at Ilocos Sur National High School, under the Science, Technology, and Engineering program of the institution. Even though I am just a simple teenager normally roaming the historic halls of ISNHS and busy streets of Vigan, there are numerous interesting things people do not know about me.      I am the youngest among us four, and I am the only male sibling my sisters have. I go by different nicknames, “Shoti” when I am around my family, “Ae” wit...

May the Odds Ever Be in Our Favor

     D reaming and expecting what you will be in the next ten years may sound nuts now that we are still in our adolescent years. Some may say, "Enjoy your childhood; you will never be young again when you turn old and wrinkled", or "Don't make haste on other things; just enjoy and have fun at the moment", but we cannot deny the fact that the future can already be foretold and foreshadowed based on our interests, goals, and principles in life.       After a decade, I would see myself as a registered nurse. I imagine myself walking on the corridors and hallways of the hospital or medical center I am working at, wearing my scrubs with a matching stethoscope on my shoulders and a clipboard and pen on my right hand. I have a nameplate on my uniform that says, "David Aeron Y. Arellano, RN", taking pride in the service and dignity my profession holds. I am serving my patients with the best of my abilities and also helping them with the warmest and most carin...

Parol: A Prismatic Yuletide Journey

The sound of Christmas music on the radio; the aroma of bibingka paskwa and tinubongs being sold around town; the flickering lights and well-wrapped gifts below the Christmas tree; and most especially, traditional Filipino parols hung outside almost every Filipino abode, shining throughout the night. Without these things, the Christmas season would definitely be incomplete. This year, my Christmas was different than those I had experienced a year and a half ago. Waking up to the tune of classic Christmas hits like Mariah Carey's All I Want For Christmas is You and Ryan Cayabyab's Kumukuti-kutitap, it warms my heart to feel the spirit of Christmas in our hearts again. It flashes back all the memories I had when I was a child, happily opening the presents given by my godparents. This year, I celebrated the Yuletide season with my family in Sinait. We wanted to try and experience how Christmas would be with our grandmother beside us. Before the clock struck 12, I was watching seve...
