"VIGAN CITY FIESTA"

Do you know where Vigan City is located? Vigan City is about 400 kilometers from Manila. Vigan City is the capital of Ilocos Sur. Have you ever gone to the place? Vigan City is well-known for its Heritage Houses that was built a long time ago during the Spanish Era. Vigan is also known for its products like Bagnet, Longganisa, Pinakbet, Okoy-Okoy, Empanada and much much more!
Aside from these stuffs, do you know when is the feast of Vigan City? The Vigan City Fiesta is held every 16th to 25th of January. For our additional information, according to the citizens in Vigan City, the feast is offered to their saint. Their saint is no other than Saint Paul.

Another is the Sangunniang Kabataan Night(SK Night), Gay Night, Miss Vigan, Miss DWRS and many more. Bigueños from all over the country and even abroad return to Vigan, as it is the custom of Filipinos to return to their hometown to join their family and friends in the celebration of their fiesta. They are joined by thousands of visitors from other parts of the Philippines and other countries in enjoying the cultural shows, parades and street dancing prepared by the local government with the help of the local industries and communities.

"MY REFLECTION"

On this Third Grading Period, we have learned about the HTML links, different kinds of HTML links, how to make Body Backgrounds, Background Colors, how to put HTML images, about Alt Attributes, Aligning Images, Adjusting Sizes, Hyperlinks/Hypertext, Hypermedia, do our project using the Microsoft Frontpage and make drafts to post on our own blogs.
Luckily, I haven't encountered any problems/challenges in our class regarding on our lessons. It's just only that when we made our project in Frontpage, my partner in our workstation didn't helped me that much. He was almost absent all the time but thank God, I have finished it even though it's not that very beautiful.
I addressed that problem through asking for some help from my classmates and I really thank them a lot. Without them, probably I can't finish our project.
Moving on, I will listen more harder to our teacher so that I can fully understand our lessons. I will exert more efforts to do our different activities so that Hj will be more satisfied. I hope that I will be more attentive to our class especially now that finals are nearly coming. I really hope so... :]]

"THE TRUE ESSENCE OF CHRISTMAS"

People say that the most important event or celebration in the whole year is Christmas. We celebrate Christmas every December. I think, Christmas is the most important event in the whole year because it is the birthday of our Lord, Jesus Christ. But, what makes this event so special.
In my own understanding, Christmas is special since it's the birth of Jesus Christ, it is also a time to spread love and happiness. All of our families and friends are rejoicing. The whole world is at peace and placid. Christmas is a time of feast and a time for reconciliation. The true essence or meaning of Christmas is about loving, forgiving, sharing and peace. It's not about the decorations, presents and foods. But, it's all about love, forgiveness, sharing and peace. This is all what Jesus Christ wants us to give him during his birthday.
So, let us all be reminded that Christmas is not about those gifts or presents. We should care about the true meaning and essence of Christmas so that Jesus Christ will always be happy! :)
