Christmas lights with different colors, Christmas trees with round, shiny decors and big, small colorful lanterns. Christmas is here, Christmas is there, Christmas is everywhere. 25th of December, the day that we celebrate Christmas.
But what is the true essence of Christmas? Are those silver, gold decors and gifts?
Christmas Day is not only celebrating or about the birth of Christ but also in showing our love to others, sharing of what we have and being happy. From the word "merry" which means happy, Christmas is about happiness, sharing, giving, love and togetherness. Realizing the blessings that we had, we must share some of this to the less fortunate people. Like the saying goes, "It is better to give than to receive." Christmas is also togetherness. Together with our loved ones, we celebrate this Day as a very special day of the year. We laugh, enjoy and share meal as well as the happy memories.
Love is in the air. We must give love on Christmas Day because it is the true essence of Christmas. Did you already forgive those who mistaken you, apologize to those people whom you hurt and say thank you to the people whom they value you? Well, now is the time. The time to forgive and forget. Spread the love, the happiness and joy to the people around you.
It is not only in Christmas Day where in we should give, share love and forgive. It can even be in our everyday life. Let us make everyday a Christmas!

Cooperation, Determination and Faith in God through Success
"If we lose something, we gain something and if we gain something, we lose something"
This last month which is November, there were many activities that we have done and joined like the Filipino Values Month Celebration with the theme of "Pagpapatibay sa Pagkataong Pilipino: Tugon sa Hamon ng Panahon", STEP Club Skills and Development Competition and the Vigan City Division Athletic Meet 2009.
Sport, an activity involving physical exertion and skill that is governed by a set of rules or customs and often undertaken competitively.
Last November 26-28 was the 2009 City Meet. Many games was played. The athletes practiced well for this event. The different games was held at the separate venues around Vigan City. As a Red Cross Youth Member, we assisted and acted as the first aiders. My companions and I had a duty in the Vigan Gymnasium where the basketball game was held. The athletes of our school did their best and they won as the champion. The basketball players of Ilocos Sur National High School beat the Divine World College of Vigan and the combination of Vigan National High School East and West. We stayed there the whole day so that if anyone will be injured we will be there to help and have a first aid to the patient. Thank God! No one hurts and the game was played well.
In the Step Club Skills and Development Competition, some of our classmates joined this contest. This was held at the ISNHS Gymnasium. All the TLE teachers and the students who came from different schools participated to this event. There were a competition of Mr. and Ms. STEP, table skirting and table setting, flower arrangements, marcoting and others. One of our classmate joined the Mr. And Ms. STEP. We, the IV-Rizal students supported our classmate. Fortunately, she won as the Ms. STEP. We congratulate her for that wonderful success of IV-Rizal.
The Filipino-Values Month Celebration was also held in the month of November. Where in, there were various contest that had done like Cook Festival, Sayawit, Tagisan ng Talino, Poster-Slogan contest and more.
All of us want to win but we must always remember that in a competition, there will always be a winner and a loser. We must have the determination, strength, cooperation and faith in God to achieve our goals.
