“Be soft. Do not let the world make you hard. Do not let pain make you hate. Do not let the bitterness steal your sweetness. Take pride that even though the rest of the world may disagree, you still believe it to be a beautiful place.”

— Ian Thomas

And one day,

maybe we’ll realize

that life isn’t about

who leaves first

and who comes last,

but rather it is

all the memories

we’ve created

and the feelings

we’ve had

that makes life

much more than

just a race

we should

win at.

Let’s take a rest, and smile it all out. // ma.c.a

“Nothing gold can stay”

While this line talks about a sunset, yes it can’t stay gold, it must turn into darkness. Yet the darkness doesn’t stay either, nothing is permanent. I feel as if people are like this as well, we can try our hardest to stay gold, but at some point something will happen to bring out another side. People say that everything is temporary, but I think those people just don’t know where to look. Within all evil there is good, and within all good there is evil, it just depends on your perspective. If I didn’t say this was a sunset some could think it is a sun rise. It’s your choice, you have the power to see this as a beginning or an end. Both can be good or bad, its up to you to make something out of nothing. 

Make the choice to stay gold.

LIFE

Learning to stand up In our own will make our Future majestic by Enchancing our own thoughts

Sonnet 138 By: William Shakespeare When my love swears that she is made of truth, I do believe her, though I know she lies, That she might think me some untutored youth, Unlearnèd in the world’s false subtleties. Thus vainly thinking that she thinks me young, Although she knows my days are past the best, Simply I credit her false-speaking tongue: On both sides thus is simple truth suppressed. But wherefore says she not she is unjust? And wherefore say not I that I am old? Oh, love’s best habit is in seeming trust, And age in love loves not to have years told. Therefore I lie with her and she with me, And in our faults by lies we flattered be.

"Flower" 🌼

By: Sofia Llamas

If I would be an inanimate, I would be a flower. I want to make the world prettier. In this 21st century today we experience and see how people become toxic to each other, wars, criticisms, and etc. All I want is to feel free just like the flowers, just letting people see you and by seeing you as a flower you can cheer up a person, complete their day and become the hope. The happiness that radiates like the fragrance, the beauty from a flower, and draws all good things towards people. Come to think of it love is like a flower, we’ve got to let it grow. I want to grow nicely, sweet, kind and become a whole person, how strong a soul like a flower.

Typical Woman

By: Ri-Ann Taminaya, Sofia Llamas and Mc Ryan Bautista

A woman who acts passionately,

In her eyes she looks pretty,

A girl who shows her true personality,

To all the people she was friendly.

A woman who was born,

To be good not selfish and stubborn,

In her eyes, she looks strong,

She has the patience that was long.

She laughs without the fear of the future,

She learned in her own failure,

She always think of her ambition,

To achieve it is her mission.

To all the blessings she was glad,

You cannot see her face sad,

She always think positively,

That’s a woman you should be.

Reminscing a Shattered Heart

By: Sofia Llamas

I would if I could But I have to You’re the reason I want to forget You’re the reason I want to stay Feels like heaven and hell are colliding But what I have to do is to stay in between

So I told myself, I surrender to love I’ll just let it all hang out, no if’s, no but’s Because love is anything you can’t understand When love and hate felt once; Even a smile and tear could mean one Funny how love this days could mean none

In this world filled with fools and infidelity I’m long still longing for a loving heart and sincerity Who knows this life is cruel and full of misery But still i keep wishing and hoping that someday I can find again “the one” once I called mine

Best Summer 2017

Whenever the end of the school year nears, we can’t help but count down the minutes to when summer starts! And it doesn’t hurt that there are some summer daydreams and plans we’ve already envisioned in our head on how we’ll spend our summer. So I planned to keep myself busy this summer by playing badminton and joining badminton tournaments from different places,and also spending time with my loved ones.

Playing badminton is my favourite hobbies which makes me feel excited and turns my passion on. Why am I chasing this sport is due to many reasons. First is because my uncle was a a professional and skillful badminton player who was a crucial person that impacts my attitude on playing badminton, second is that badminton is a healthy sport, which makes me feel relax and gets rids of stressors. If I am in a bad mood, I will choose to play badminton rather than playing computer games or go shopping. The third reason is that I can make a lot of friends who are also enthusiastic about badminton. I spend 6 years now playing badminton but still I don’t get a chance to join regionals or palarong pambansa. Some people say that I’m not good enough, that I keep wasting my time so I worked hard to prove that I can improve my passion. Until then I keep playing and started joining different tournaments from diferent places like baguio, benguet and pampanga. Recently it was my first time winning as a 1st runner up mixed doubles level c in 1st invitation Strawberry Farm, La Trinidad with Ryan Alpay and I felt great. It’s good to feel that all my hard work pays off. And I realized now that it’s not about who wins or losses, it’s about how you handle and the progress of what you’re making.

After joining tournaments we went to different places like la union, my mom’s hometown, Sta.lucia, ilocos sur and vigan with my family and my bestfriend, Anna. It all feels perfect as if Anna’s part of our family and especially when in vigan. There are many beautiful and historical places there. Some of the houses there are hundred years old. There are also many beaches out there that will surely take your breath away too. Another reason why I really like there is the food, ilocanos are known for their delicious and authentic cuisine. One of the most famous food in Vigan is empanada. Everyone should try it to complete their vacation in Vigan. Most of all the people are very generous, hospitable and friendly. And that’s how my summer vacation is the best!
