growing up in a town where Holy Week turns people into passionate pilgrims and devotees, it has become usual for me to see local scenes exclusive for the Holy Week. Our town (well, politically Vigan is a city but I love calling Vigan as my 'town') transforms into a religious dream wonderland for different types of people. This is not limited to the passionate Roman Catholics who do the visita iglesia, stations of the cross and those who persistently wait for the start of the pursisyon (this is our local term for procession) who'll eventually recite prayers while they hold candles and rosaries as they walk with the carrozas that carry sculptures portraying the Roman Catholic's version of the gospel. I think it would be safe to say that Vigan is a major tourist destination now. But I would say tourists do not contribute a significant percentage to the Good Friday crowd because most of the people are locals. Even before Vigan became a major tourist destination, this has ...

KANNAWIDAN YLOCOS FESTIVAL My insight on the celebration to the Ilocano people. Kannawidan ylocos festival, kannawidann festival was fun before the pandemic started but until now it’s still fun but it’s not the same as the usual before. The way they celebrate the Kannawidan festival, they’re inviting some famous vloggers and some celebrities to make a show at bantay stadium. A lot of people having fun during the concerts and other activities that they’re watching at night. And the way that they celebrate the lunar year in vigan city was.. every year they’re making a fireworks show at night and a lot of children’s enjoying the show and after they watch the fireworks they also watched the dancing fountain at plaza. Not just those activities are happening during the kannawidan festival there are also a motor show and car show they held this show at the back of the DWCV school and a lot of people enjoying this activity. But we still need to follow the protocols to protect ourselves especi...

Here in Vigan City we have the most famous tourist spot that we call the Heritage Village or what we call Calle Crisologo. This tourist spot has a very deep history and a lot of people want to visit this place because it has a beautiful view and history, Calle Crisologo is worth visiting both day and night. Each timezone has it's own charm and features. At day you will be enjoying the numerous antique souvenir shops around, as well as little museums like the Father Burgos Museum and the Crisologo Museum. These establishments are all settled within the Spanish heritage houses that give the car-free street it's charm. Also during day, make sure you will be enjoying riding a Spanish-style horse carriage called 'kalesa'. This way you can get a nice little tour around some very culturally rich heritage sceneries; the old very prosperous Spanish colonial area in Vigan. The well preserved houses at Calle Crisologo (or Mena Crisologo) are mostly ancestral homes of well-kno...

My reflection on all the learning I’ve gained during the second quarter, I have learned about notepads and HTML’s. our lesson this 2nd quarter was a bit harder than the 1st quarter because there a lot of task to do and sometimes doing the exercises in notepad is hard. The problem I’ve been encounter was having a lot of task to do and it’s hard for me because ICT is not just our subject to focus to, we have a lot of subject to answer and we can’t make those task at the same time. So that was the hardest part for me a having a lot of task to do in one subject only. The way I did to address all the challenges is to make a schedule to make my modules to make it easy. Moving on, I will still do all of those tasks but It’s really hard sometimes because we only have a few time to do our tasks.

My insight 0n Vigan City Fiesta Celebration in the new normal, I think there’s no festival will happen this year like last year I think they didn’t celebrate the fiesta because of this pandemic. Many of us want’s to watch and join the fiesta but they can’t because of this covid-19 virus. And most of the reason , our government wouldn’t allow us to celebrate the fiesta of Vigan cause our covid cases in Ilocos sur by now is starting increase again, that’s why I think that we’re not celebrating the vigan festival again this year. references: https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&url=https%3A%2F%2Fen.wikipedia.org%2Fwiki%2FWorld_Costume_Festival&psig=AOvVaw1aeoz-8ozGN3w2ZPFA9lok&ust=1642412575720000&source=images&cd=vfe&ved=0CAsQjRxqFwoTCPCq4OX9tfUCFQAAAAAdAAAAABAD

New year ,new me!!! I’ll change a lot for this year, I want to make myself better for this new year 2022. I really want to change my attitude to improved myself and lessen some toxic peoples in my life. I really hate toxic peoples that’s why I don’t have a lot of friends because now a days a lot of people are toxic you can trust no one anymore. Having that one good friend the one who can handle your attitude and everything you have is nice. This new year I’m focusing on myself I want to improved more, because this past few days I’ve been insecure with my body I don’t know why but I always feel insecure in myself, that’s why I want to make a deal with myself that I’m going to work out everyday to lessen my insecurity and to gain more confidence. And the next thing I want to change this year … I want to focus on my studies because I feel so stupid sometimes if I don’t understand our lessons and other activities in school. I hope this year will be better than 2021, 2021 was very challe...

Christmas Happenings during covid-19 Christmas day is coming and the pandemic is still on us and we can’t get rid of this if some of us are stubborn people. We can still celebrate our Christmas in our home after the mass and just make a simple celebration at home we don’t need to go out to celebrate the birthday of our loving Jesus , if your problem is lack of money ? … then you don’t need money to celebrate the x-mas you just need to make a simple celebration and then there you go , x-mas is doesn’t all about money as soon were happy , we celebrate.“Christmas is doing a little something extra for someone.” We can make our papa god happy if we show him that were celebrating and enjoying his birthdate. But still some of us are not celebrating Christmas because they doesn’t have money to cook something to eat, so if I’m the one who would be rich someday I will give a gift in every family out there that does have home to sleep and they’re just laying outside in the streets and you ca...
