My Role in Building a Solid Family

My role, not just me but every children, is to make the bond that makes the family closer, stronger. That includes being respectful and obedient to our parents, trust each and every member of the family, being loyal and honest.Another thing is giving or creating happiness  to every member and communication serves as a big role for the family's understanding of each other.And the most important is that "Love" must exist because it is the very foundation of a unbreakable family, if love doesn't exist, the family will look like a group of people who doesn't care and understand each other. Well, that is just the important important part, all of those are created from bits of chores. I sweep the second floor of our house everyday and also my room. I wash the dishes after eating so my parents will not be tired. My parents want me to be responsible so I do this with out any word. When I was still young, I am not doing anything that I am doing now because we have a maid, but every time we lose a maid because of my youngest brother always mean and pesky, resulting that our maid can't take it anymore and leaving. So that leads to us brothers to do the chores everyday and I tell you, it intensifies during summer vacation. We sometimes go out when our parents have extra money to enjoy ourselves but despite of that, we save money for immediate use like when our parents forgot to give us  money then we use it and also we deposit it in a bank for future use. But this family will have never been like I described  if there is no LOVE. LOVE makes the family closer, stronger and happier. If there is no LOVE the bond will just easily break and misunderstanding, jealousy and losing faith will occur. That's why us children also have a big role in making the family solid.

The History of a Father


Francis G. Serrano, that’s my father. I love him very much; he is a different kind of father despite of his health problems. He is very kind to us, his sons. When I was still young, we stayed in Rosario, Cavite and I studied in a day care center, he cheers me up every day when coming back home after work by playing with me and doing other stuffs. When I finished day care, we moved to Maragondon and there we stayed up to now. I studied elementary in Maragondon, he always help me with my assignments together with my mother.
Whenever my assignment is connected to drawing, he helps me but one day, he taught me the technique to draw building like the ones he always drew in my assignments. Before graduating in elementary up to now, me and my father always play the computer when I started buying computer games. Our favorite is Need for Speed and Call of Duty, Need for Speed is his favorite because it is all about cars and for Call of Duty because he is also fund of guns.  When I was a First year student, I also got interested in buildings, like him, I downloaded picture of churches and some awesome buildings. He is also fund of listening to religious music like me and also my favorite, the instrumental music; it is a music without any lyrics, just pure music.
I am very close to my father, we are always together whenever he is in our house, we help each other when doing something. He always want the family to be together always. We always watch war movies and we like it. He works overnight to finish his plans for his sideline job because he is an Architect. He finishes the plan early because he needs to earn money for us to live. That’s why we help to lessen other expenses in our house like the electricity and water.
We are also fund of watching about history, especially about war. I t makes us relax and learn more. When it is his birthday, I burn his favorite music to a blank disc; we play it in his car. I wish that my father will have a happy long life together with us, his family. To add it all up, a father is the greatest, kindest and helpful person a child can have, so Happy Father’s Day J.

My First week of school as a Third year student

My first week of school was great because I met my old friends and some new friends. I am suddenly surprised when I saw my classmates when I was in First year, then I thought “them again” but it’s alright, it is also fun to be with them.  I am also happy because some of my classmates during my time as a second year student are also my classmates this school year. There are some of my new classmates which I knew by their names but not so well, so I would like to know them better. For my friends whom I already knew, we just strengthen our friendship.

During the first day of classes I was almost late because when I reached the school there were students already lined up in the court. I hastily went to the classroom to put my things there then I ran to the court to join my classmates. After the flag ceremony we cleaned our areas, after finishing cleaning ma’am May briefed us in English III. All subjects were briefed; some already gave us exercises, activity and others. When 4 to 5 in the afternoon came, “as usual” I became very excited because I am going home and rest before doing something.

The next day, it was Diagnostic Test day, when I arrived in school we waited for ma’am Mae to arrive and open the door of the classroom. When the door was open, we rushed to get the cleaning materials then put our bags on the top of the locker, but the top of the locker was already full so I put my bag on the ground near the door then we started the Diagnostic test. After the Diagnostic test, I remembered that there was no half day and replaced by the club organization, I joined the Science club for the third time in my stay in Science high school and I also joined YEC. The next day, after the Diagnostic test in the morning we had regular classes after lunch. Some teachers are giving assignments already, not just one, but several.

After two days of Diagnostic test, I had thought that “aww, the test days are over, back to regular classes again”. Every day, Michael, Ave Joe, Rexson and me are always having laugh trips, and I mean we laugh every day until our eyes become tearful. Every day, I play the Rubik’s Cube during recess both in the morning and afternoon and also lunch time. At the end of the week, our assignments had piled up and became many, but that is just ok for me, I mean that’s what school is. Also at the end of the week, I thought “wow! I finished my First week of being a Third year student”,  I wish that I will always have a good feeling after the end of the week up to the end of school year.
