F-A-M-I-L-Y

Every one of us has a family. Incomplete family does not mean that you do not have a father or mother. We can say that we have a complete family if there is what we call LOVE and UNDERSTANDING. Our family is our weakness and our strength. We get strength from them to survive all the challenges we facing right now. But they can be our weakness, when they are gone; we think that we cannot live without them.

Family is very important to our lives. They serve as a foundation of our strength. Without them we cannot live and enjoy our lives on earth. How can we tell that we have an ideal family? It depends on the person you will ask. Many people say that an ideal family is the family that work together to live happily. And some, say that an ideal family is the family that is living simply but complete. We cannot say that all of the people should have that quality to be called ideal family.

All of us have given a chance to have a family. We need to care of them because we do not know when they will be gone. Do not waste the opportunity, the time spending with them. We do not know when the right that God will get them is. We just borrow them from God. And there will the right time that God will get all the things that we borrowed.

Facing those Challenges without Him

Father, in dictionary is defined as a male parent or Individual progenitor of human offspring. The adjective "paternal" refers to a father and comparatively to "maternal" for a mother. But for me there is a deeper meaning for that word. You cannot tell a person/man, a father, when he cannot do the tasks and responsibilities of a father. But what if you did not see your father since you were born? How will you accept that? Will you blame him or will you think that he did not want to leave you and your family? Will you look for another love of other father?

          My father, Deogrias Abril, is the youngest among his four siblings. According to my mother, he died when I was only two months old. The cause of his death was heart attack. Every time we celebrate the father’s day, there are so many questions that are formulating in my mind. “Do you like to have another father, will I blame him for leaving us, and will I blame him for what’s happening with us right now?” Now, at my age, I knew all the answers to those questions. I cannot blame him for his leaving us because he also did not like to do so. I also realized that I do not like to have another father because he is the one. God gave him to us. And if he is here, he will not allow us to do bad things that can harm us. But sometimes I want blame him for what is happening to my eldest brother. According to my grandmother, my brother was being spoiled by my father. He always does and gives whatever my brother wants. Now, even though my brother is in college level. He neither stopped nor reduced his love for playing toys. My aunt said, we cannot blame my brother because when my father died, my brother was the one to absorb the shock. And that is always comes to my mind whenever my brother is being childish.

          It is hard for me to lose my father at the very young age. Sometimes, I am searching for the love of a father. But the life must go on. You cannot continue your life when you are always thinking of what happened in your past. But it does not mean that I will forget my father. He will always remain to my heart even though he is already with the creator, God.

Three Years of Surviving the Challenges

        For me, studying in Cavite National Science High School is a very big challenge. Unlike in other schools, CNSHS has a rule that your grades must not be lower than 85. Giving your best shot is the most important thing to do. Being a student of CNSHS, makes me proud because all people know that whoever is studying there is good. But, in spite of that, the friends that you will have in that school are like treasures.`

       As a competing third year student, many of my classmates now, became my classmates when I was a sophomore or a freshmen student but some of them did not became my classmates, that’s why every time I talk to them I become shy. But as the time passes by, with the help of different activities that we are conducting everyday in school, the shyness was changed ­­­­­into happiness. Some of them, whom I can say that I cannot be friends with them or as close as I do to my other classmates, because many of their attitudes made me to ­­do that. Some of my new friends are Rhemielene, Patricia and Joyce. I also have best friends, Gem and Camille. We first became classmates when we were still sophomores. I like to hang out with them because they are always making me happy.

       I also have new set of teachers. Some of them became my teachers when I was in the lower years. All of them are like my past teachers. They are strict when it comes to academics, but we can hang out with them just like friends. Mrs. Atendido, our adviser, is a kind of teachers that you will enjoy your time with her. Mrs. Arceo, our Math teacher, is the teacher whom you will be afraid of because of her voice but she’s not like that. Mr. Ces, our Basic Statistics teacher, is like a joker, you will not be bored when you attend your classes with him but you will gain knowledge when you listen to him. Mrs. Malimban, our Analytic Geometry teacher, the way she teaches us is the one I really like because every time she starts her discussion, you will understand it already. Mrs. Berganos, our Research and Chemistry teacher, she is very strict that you cannot talk whenever she is discussing. Mrs. Nazareno, our AP teacher, she is just like Mrs. Berganos. Those are my teachers.

       Of course, I also have my new classroom, new environment. It was well-groomed. Our classroom is very wide compare to my former classrooms. Though it is wide, I think we are over-crowded there because we are 35 students. But there, you can treat it like your second home. Our adviser is very strict when it comes to cleanliness of our room. We must segregate all the trashes because if not, she will get angry to us. That’s how she maintains the cleanliness in our room.

       Being a third year is somewhat exciting yet challenging, because you are very near to the happiest part of our high school life, graduating. But do not be so comfortable with that because there is a chance that you will not graduate in CNSHS if you will waste your chance. But, my loving friends inspire me to study hard and give my best.
