Full of surprises

http://www.localpulse.net/education/sona-2018-reaction-paper-18735/

Surprising in every sense of the word. It is one way of describing the Third State of the Nation Address of President Rodrigo Roa Duterte. Far from the gang-busting, cuss-word spitting fireball he has been seen and vilified for in the past, this year, Duterte seemed to be subdued in spots, generally sticking to the prepared speech with minimal digression unlike in the past when he lingered and diversified as he went along. It took him 49 minutes, interrupted by 36 applauses from the gathered congregation to finish his Third State of the Nation Address.That he mostly stuck to the prepared speech is one surprising thing in itself but the way that he delivered it in his Dueterte-esque brand of monologue is another surprise. He didn’t mince words in his speech but he also didn’t curse in front of a live audience – quite a sight for a man known for his tirades and his unstoppable mouth. He didn’t crack blasé jokes, either so it is also a relief of sorts. He looked to be in the mood for business, subdued and serious but unlike the other times.Again, the reaction of the gathered crowd was approving but in the streets, where two diverging masses of groups were expressing their sentiments, two sets of differing reactions could be heard – in one, wild applause and cheering, in the other, veiled contempt and gnashing of teeth and muffled curses. Still par for the course, as the previous iterations of the SONA have seen.

Eat healthy to have the right and enough nutrition you can achieve

What are the requirements for adequate nutrition? Ask yourself if the nutrition you get is enough everyday. Proper nutrition is a very important element in our daily life because it will provide energy and energy to do our work such us going to school, making assignments, doing housework, getting to work and so many others. Where does it come from being enough and proper nutrition that our body needs?

Nutrition comes from every meal we eat. The essential source of vitamins and minerals we need daily is from vegetables and fruits. Not all vegetables and fruits are nutritious just like those non-organic planting. In many studies that have made the results the health of non-organic vegetables and fruits is far from health because they are so many elements that are not good in our bodies. Be smart and be careful about buying and choosing vegetarian meals. the best thing to do is cultivate your own fruits and vegetables. No matter where you live, you can plant a lot if there is a vacant lot that can be

made into a small garden. Some of the seeds that are easy to take care of are tomatoes,okra,legumes,leaves and so on. There are also many alternatives if there is no vacant lot as just planting plastic bottles and pots that can be placed in front of the window. Nowadays, it's harder to plant, you just have to do it. There are now plenty of supplements that help fill up the vitamins in our body needs. Experimental studies are good for health but it still does not match the natural way that comes from fruits, vegetables and our environment. Take a meal with wholesome food to drink eight glasses of water everyday and practice the exercise and adequate rest. Let's remember that we are slowly planting to have the right time and enough nutrition we can achieve

Letter to the President

Ilocos Sur National High School
Vigan City

The Honorable Rodrigo Duterte
President
Malacanang Palace

Dear Mr. President:

I am a student at Ilocos Sur National High School in Vigan City, and I am writing to encourage you to increase more your efforts as President to our national environment. As a teen I am very aware that my future is in danger of being one in which our planet continues to suffer from illegal drugs.

As President, you have the authority to work toward polices that can have negative effects. You can also have the ability to start a national trend toward environmental protection by encouraging Filipinos not to use illegal drugs that can affect our environment. At my school, our entire building of ISNHS students is raising awareness of illegal drugs issues by devoting an entire day to the cause. Even teachers in every department are alerting their lessons plans for the day to spend time discussing about how drugs are very dangerous. In our Barangay, we are doing what we can as well.

Thank you for the work you have already done to protect our environment from illegal drugs and please consider making our planet's health and even higher priority in your administration

Yours sincerely,

Viennine Mariel Aquino

"Just living is not enough..one must have sunshine, freedom, and a little flower"

One of the most significant in the Philippine's history is Independence Day because it marks the nation's independence from the Spanish ruel june 12,1998. Filipinos celebrate it annually in June 12.

Many students are asking "Why should we celebrate Philippine Independence Day". You might be a student asking this maybe because its your school assignment meant to be answered. So why is it really important to celebrate the Independence Day.

Independence Day is a day when many people including government officials, employees, and students participate in nationwide parades. Many Filipinos spend the day in parks and malls. Many Filipinos communities in other countries also observe the nation's Independence Day. The first Philippine President Emilio Aguinaldo proclaimed June 12, 1898 as the Philippine Independence Day. Now why should we celebrate the Independence Day? Maybe because it commemorate the Filipinos declaration of their in here out to freedom and Independence freedom from Spanish Colonization or other foreign Colonization. And Emilio Aguinaldo believed that a declaration of Independence would inspire people to fight against the Spanish, and the same time lead other nations to recognize the Independence of the Philippines. And maybe because June 12 has been also observed as the "Flag day" in the Philippines since it was the first time the philippines flag was officially waved.And it brings honor and love for those who spent their lives seeking to end the abuses of Spain. And lastly it gave way to the Philippine for self government.
