Strictly. Surely.

This second grading, we learned things about parts of a web browser and page address, also the basic and complicated HTML TAGS. Some parts of a web browser are address bar, toolbar, webpage and page address. Page address has also its parts namely protocol, domain name, directory path, and object name. While the HTML TAGS were these:  , <hr>, -, -, <html>, <head>...we knew all of these because of the help of our practice teacher, Ms. Melany Queyquep. She has been very patient on teaching us because we get silly and noisy sometimes.

We had some problems about our internet connection because it was very slow and we can’t work on our blog that fast. The result, we can’t do our blogs on time especially me because we don’t have internet connection. Problems also in time were considered. We sometimes lack on time because of some activities we’re attending. By these, we didn’t do some of our activities in time.

At lunch time, some of us go to E-LIBRARY or on some computer shops only to finish our assignments. Also we asked permission to have our missed activities be finished.

Moving on, I will assure to strictly budget my time wisely because time really is important. I won’t waste it anymore with nonsense things. Also, I will past all my projects and assignments and blogs in time whatever happens. I will be better...

Upholding English Proficiency for Communicative Competence

English has been a part of our everyday school life. It has been our implement in having some outputs, assignments and projects which we do especially on school. English is our universal language and it is literally spoken in more parts of the world than any other language and by more people than any other language.

Communicating is the process of sharing ideas, information, and messages with others in a particular time and place. Communication includes writing and talking which we intend to misunderstand one another if we didn’t know what and how a word really means. Through English proficiency, we can make our communicative skills better. We can communicate to anyone who understands English through it. International languages include both existing languages that have become international means of communication and languages artificially constructed to serve this purpose. Today, English is used in more countries as an official language or as the main means of international communication than any other language. And this is why schools promote English to be the communicative language.

I can still remember our own piece when we joined a jazz chant contest in our school. Fortunately, we won first place. These are some of the lines:

English, English proficiency

Proper communication can be done through...

Done through what??

English, English proficiency…

CONSERVE TO PRESERVE

Science and technology has been our partner in living every day. Science, as we all know is a systematic study of anything that can be examined, tested, and verified while technology means general term for the processes by which human beings fashion tools and machines to increase their control and understanding of the material environment. When these two coalesce, it means being modern and capable in doing something that we can’t do with our bare hands. And using these said technologies produces energies which we tend to obliterate.

Nowadays, energies are leaned to be conserved because of climate change. Energy is used for transportation, heating, cooling, cooking, lighting, and industrial production. The world energy supply depends on many different resources including traditional fuels such as firewood and animal waste, which are significant energy sources in many developing countries. But some Energies are non renewable and we have to conserve them. Or else when we’ll only be realizing all of these, it’s too late.

Gasoline Shortage-During the energy crisis of the 1970s, people frequently had to wait in long lines to purchase gasoline. The gasoline shortage was caused largely by an embargo imposed by oil-producing countries.
