It's More Fun In Vigan : Ilocos Sur Tawid

 

Ilocos Sur is a beautiful province located in the northern Luzon. This year’s celebration was full of surprises. They invited many popular TV artist, conducted so many competitions. One of them was the street dancing competition where different provinces and other neighboring provinces showcased their cultures.

Kannawidan is an Ilocano term which means feast of heritage and culture. Kannawidan is an annual celebration of the province of Ilocos Sur. This festival of Ilocanos aims to restore the habit they have and showcase their inheritance from preceding generations. Kannawidan is derived from the Ilocano term "tawid" meaning inheritance.

Just like in the previously held Vigan City Fiesta, there is also a food and trade fair and the products are more diverse since it features different goods coming from the 22 towns of Ilocos Sur. There are also rides that people will enjoy. Additionally, Kannawidan is much more let's say extravagant in a way since artists come to the province and Ilocano fans have a chance to meet them up close.

Highlights of this festival are the Miss Ilocos Sur,  Kannawidan Street Dancing and Showdown. Miss Ilocos Sur is a pageant where beautiful young ladies represent their hometown and compete in different categories. The street dancing and showdown is where the representatives of towns face off for the different prizes waiting. 

Every heritage and culture is to be known by many. Stories to be passed down to the succeeding generations to come and hopefully they can witness the inheritance that our ancestors have presented us.

EstyudaNTREPRENEUR 2022

 The event "Likas na Talento at Kasanayan: Tugon a Katatagan at Pagharap sa Hamon ng Bagong Normal" had a successful opening December 2 2022. The goal of this event is to promote students' work and that tle is not an easy or minor subject only. Others may claim that the subject is as simple as playing in the sun, but this is not the case. Students in these subjects must learn how to cook, prepare traditional cuisines such as longganisa, carve furniture, and provide services such as beauty, wellness, and massage. Furthermore, the event's goal is to reveal and see who the talented and brave students who will participate in the said event are.

The main goal of the event was to help JHS students develop their entrepreneurial skills, and I believe that goal was met. Cookery students learned what it's like to work under pressure, just like chefs do. Furthermore, students in agriculture, beauty care, and wellness massage learned how to properly execute'sales talk' in order to sell more products. Meanwhile, ICT, CSS, CSA, Industrial Arts, and Carpentry students interacted with other students and demonstrated the various appliances that distinguish their chosen area of specialization. Indeed, EstyudaNTREPRENEUR is an event that creates a lovely learning environment for ISNHS students.

I learned a lot after attending the event. I discovered that this event is beneficial to student "entrepreneurs" not only because they earn money by selling, but it can also serve as a once-in-a-lifetime experience. This experience has taught me that this event improved their physical and mental abilities. This means they are well-prepared for the future. I also discovered that we can send messages through one of their booths. With that, we took advantage of the opportunity to make fun of one of our friends.

Businesses can provide children with opportunities to be creative innovators while also earning money. Although an increasing number of states and communities have made it easier for young entrepreneurs to earn money, children and teenagers must still obtain the necessary paperwork to operate legally.

  

Second Quarter....DONE!

  

    
Looking back on my first reflection, I stated that I wanted to improve in various areas. It was undoubtedly another journey full of learning and challenges.

    Second Quarter! New lessons, new people, new activities. As usual, stressed. Summative test, not enough days to discuss, thematic projects, and after the vacation, Second quarterly examination, and many more requirements to finish.

 Unlike in the last quarter, it is easier compared to the last quarter. Like in the last quarter, all we need is time management and review. Managing your time is very important. Mix it with a good review and it’ll make a perfect potion for the second quarter.

  Life is a continuous learning. In other words,  is a continuous process of your life. Every day we learn from many things like in our daily experiences. Life is about continuous learning, discovering new things, and growing. Successful people don't think they know everything. They are open to new ideas. And it’s just the right reason why students go to school. If we only depend on experience, there’s no such thing as discovery at all.

    Moving on, I will continue to pursue my dreams by pushing myself to achieve my kind of success in which my parents would be proud of me.
