What we’ve Done

When the Lord was creating our world, the world was clean and green. And all the surroundings are very clean. And when the world was finished, the Lord was still unhappy. Because the Lord was the only man in that wide world. He think that he could build a Man that the same what his figure is. He build a man called Adam, and a woman called Eve. When He was finally finished it, He was finally very happy for himself. But when the world began to change to a polluted land, God is very unhappy what we’ve done. We turned our world to a breakable land, water and air. That is because of the indiscipline life of the people of the world. Lord finally washed the world in one time, and then we, the people again trying to break our
beautiful paradise once more but more breakable that has gifted by our Lord, God.
And now, why the people don’t think what they are doing? Why the people continue to break our paradise that now turned into a polluted world? Is there a problem in the people? Why they are not crying if anyone is trying to throw their garbage in the river or anywhere? Why they were not challenging their selves to be not an indiscipline one? Why they are not insulted if the one has good manners called them “no manners”, why they continue it? Everybody should question it.
Like Severn Suzuki asked on her speech in Rio back in 1992, why the parents continue doing the things they tell wrong to their children? Then Severn Suzuki challenged everybody. I’m happy for it that someone could bravely said it. I think that Severn Suzuki’s challenge is right for the world. Even though she is
challenging the adult ones.
So I too, challenge adult ones in using tag-lish words in Environmental Summit back in May 2008. But if everyone not believed in my words-true words, what words they want?
I can’t hardly believe that the polluted river is found in our country! But very thankful, it is finally cleaning by our government.
The next generation to come that I think that we – children will suffer. Because of only of the parents. But not all. To be honest, not just the parents is doing to break the land, but also
the children sometimes. But where the children get it from? The parents of course. And I like you to believe me. Like Severn Suzuki said “Parents, we need more actions, not mere assurance”.

Something I wish In My Life

Every people in this world have its
own wishes

But for me, some little things

Around this world may be mine.

I wish that I could have a garden

That full of beautiful flowers rare or
not rare

So I could see them blooming every
time

I wish that I could have my own house

That my family could live happily ever
after

That we could eat happily ever after

I wish I could have a farm

That has hard trees and also fruits

So that I can get them every time

I wish I could have our needed money

To buy needed things

But not much money to be true

I wish I could find the greatest life

With my family and friends

So that I could not cry

I wish that I could be an engineer,

Writer or even a chef someday

So that I could help my parents

I wish the surroundings will be clean
and green someday

So that I could breathe clearly not
the polluted air

So that I couldn’t smell the garbage
somewhere

Someday I will think that it will be
true

All that I wish could be true

And I wish that our parents

Continue saying us “everything’s going
to be alright”

Baguio City, My Favorite Place

Baguio City is my favorite place. I love see the pine trees moving slowly. But our house is far away from there. Even if it is my favorite place I cannot go there faster. I’d like to go there because it was the summer capital of this country, Philippines.
And if I go there this would be happen. First, I will ride a tricycle from our house to the Waiting Shed to Baguio. Second, I will ride a bus to there and wait for how many hours to get there. One, Two, Three, Four, Five Hours to get there. And then I could see the SM City Baguio Mall shining with light. I could even see the pine trees taller than me moving with this cold summer. I’d like to boat in the Burnham Lake and I will be nervous when I am in the boat. I’d like to go shopping in SM City Baguio Mall for my school supplies, dresses, bag, shoes, toys and obviously food. I will be full if I eat “dinuguan” in the restaurant especially siopao, siomai, and other Japanese foods. Then if I would like to sleep, I just go to the cheapest condo in Baguio.
The famous places there are The Mansion of our President, Mines View, SM City Baguio, Biggest Christmas Tree and Burnham Park. This place is established by Americans in 1900. In Christmas, there was very hard traffic. Especially in the road to SM City Baguio. I guess, the Christmas Eve is the very especial season this passed years. And also, Baguio glows in nippy winter air. There were thousand people shopping, attending masses, marketing and eating.
In Baguio, all people are free to wear a bonnet. Because it is cold there, we just wear thick jackets to be warm. Last New Year, I feel like to attend the parties with my father’s friends. He is working at Tebtebba Foundation. This place is a None Government Organization. Their topic is mining.
Among the places in Baguio, my favorite place is Burnham Park. Because it is very near to the office, you can easily be brought there. This place is 8 degrees cooler on the average of any lowland places.
Baguio is really wet during rainy seasons especially if hard. November to May is a tropical paradise in place. A very refreshing break from the hot sunlight and humid climate in the Philippines. In late afternoons or evenings, recommended worn is jackets and thick sweaters.
The malls there are Abanao Square Shopping Arcade in Abanao Street,
Baguio Center Mall in Magsaysay Avenue, Cooyeesan Plaza in
Naguilian Road, Porta Vaga in Session Road and especially SM City Baguio in Luneta Hill, Baguio Session Road.
There were also schools for handicapped children. These are Baguio School for the Deaf, Baguio Vision Christian Academy Foundation, Inc., Maryknoll Good news Deaf Centrum, NLAB’s Heinz Wolkke
School and San Lorenzo Ruiz institute.
The Shopping Centers are Hiro Shopping Center, Old Tiong San Bazaar, Tiong San Shopping Center Harrison, Skyworld Commercial
Center, UB Square, Maharlika Livelihood Center, 5 Cents Up and Country Mart and 456 Department Store. There, you can decrease or increase prices. You can also buy one take one there cheaply.
We can also find Souvenir shops like Easter Weaving Room, Inc., Glass Spirits Candles and Crafts, Ibay’s Silver shop (Main), Ibay’s Silver shop, Island Souvenirs, Naeda’s Trading Corporation, Philippine Treasure Inc., Maharlika Livelihood Souvenir Shops, Pilak Silver Shop, Wood Carvings Souvenir, Mines View Souvenir Shops.
The top ten first hotels are Baguio Palace Hotel, City Light Hotel, City Travel Hotel Concorde Hotel, Cooyeesan Hotel Plaza, El Cielito Inn, Golden Pine Hotel, Hotel Constancia, Hotel Supreme and Hotel Villa Rosal. You can go there and sleep there because their beds are soft.
The top nineteen Saint Joseph Parish Church, Saint Vincent Church, Baguio Baptist Church, Baguio Church of Christ, Baguio Mission Center, Chinese Baptism Church, Good News Community Church, Baguio Cathedral, Grace Baptist Church Inc., Holy Family Church, korea Union Church, Methodist Church, Pines City Baptist Church, St. Stephen Lutheran, United Church of Christ in the Philippines Burnham Park, United Evangelical Church of Baguio Trancoville, United Methodist Church, United Pentacostal Church and Bread of Life Ministries, Inc. Where we can pray nicely.
There are courier services around Baguio. These are Aboitiz One Inc., Air Freight 2100 Inc., L B C Express Inc., WWW Express and FedEx.
There are restrooms in different places especially in the Gasoline Shops, Parks, Shopping center, Malls and many, many more.
Baguio is also prone in pollution especially air and water pollution. Yes it is very traffic; this traffic makes everyone cover their nose and also their mouth. In water pollution, they throw garbage everywhere too, but just sometimes. Like in Manila and Nueva Vizcaya, they were prone to pollutions too. Baguio City is more than thousand people. When it is my first time to come there, we came to the marketplace and I was shocked that more than one thousand people are there in the marketplace. This place has more population because there were Ilocanos, Bugkalots, Tagalogs, Ifugaos and more.

Importance of Writing

When I was Nursery, I thought that writing is not really important in
school. I thought that it is nonsense. And now I’m Grade four. I was
only to write in my notebook a title and ten word of the manila paper
that has clipped in the blackboard.

My Ambition is to write an article about our Family, "The Almirol
Family". I wish that I could meet all my cousins, uncles, aunts, great
uncles, great aunties and many more. But how I can write that If I am a
Lazy writer? And now I realized that I have a talent of writing, So I
will continue it and write someday a poem, story and even an article
about our Family.

Our Environment

The Environment a years ago where clean because of the people that disciplined their selves. But now, the trees where all broken, the rivers are now polluted, the air is now smoky and our mountains eroded. The trees were all broken, our forests are now cities and all birds don't have now their shelter for their protection. Many of them were laying their eggs somewhere down in the land. The rivers are now polluted and full of garbage thrown by we-people who came to wash their cars, washing their dirty clothes and from spilling oils and throwing garbage. The air is now smoky because of the factories and also the people who smoke and the cars in the cities. The mountains are now eroded and there were no left for the person who cares the mountains because of some people who stole their land. Therefore, we conclude the miners that mine the mountains for gold and now, we-people because of money, we agreed the mining company to mine our gift from our God, our land.

I am imagining that some of anybody will help me to fix these lands. These are the government, the parents and also my fellow pupils that can help me fixing this land and changing them to be beautiful. I am imagining our forests have trees and birds who fly happily with their nests with eggs above trees. We smell and feel the fresh air also for we-children. The mountains, we can climb them for long journey. The trees, we can climb them and pick fruits there. The farms, I wish that we can see the farmers happily for their good harvests. The rivers that I wish to be so clean and admirable too see and we-children will be safe when we swim and drink from it. I am very thankful to the environmentalists who came and born to save our paradise.

Teachers

Teach there, teach here
Classes start and now will appear
Test me, test you
Now they check what you can do

Activities there, activities here
Do not copy, do not be so near
Play now, play tomorrow
Your feeling will not too sorrow

Project today, project tomorrow
Do not be late I do not allow
Recite you, recite me
Because I will check your ability

You’re important, you are noble
Without you our studies are our pebble
My ball pen is my gun; my paper is for our shield
For our protection to the evil ones
