MARCH, A MEMORIES TO REMEMBER
BY: IVY DELOS SANTOS
We are like a tree. A single seed planted and cultivated on the ground, cared and enhanced to become a beautiful tree. The tree widens it branch to show thanksgiving and the leaves danced in harmony to GOD.
We have gone through every ups and downs as we take the path of life. We have felt its changing taste and its unpredictable future. Just like a child, we never thought that this time would come that it is us who people will look up too. We are the role models now and expectations are given to us. Same old faces have grown their loyalty to their alma mater. And new faces have come and go through this batch but the bond that each of us shared remains close and tight like a rock to its soul. We have been through different challenges and together we overcome it by having the TEAMWORK and PERSEVERANCE. And as our high school year will end, the memories of different happenings and emotions will be remembered by us and by the mentors who had molded us into a better person. This march will be a month of farewells and hellos. Hello, to the Social Studies Product making defense where we presented our products and defended it just like a real businessmen. And the final exams that really made us remember all the lessons we’ve gone through the whole school year, it was a bunch of papers to remember. And the retreat, we went at the G12 campus for ignite. This is one act of worship to God who made all the things possible for us; in bad times and good times, in our ups and downs, in our laughter and sorrow, loss and gain, and throughout our success and defeat, He was there making us realize that things are planned not for us to depend on it but to learn from it. And the most waited of all events this march, the senior’s ball or the Batch Night where we will wear our semi-formal attires just like in a prom. There will be dancing and singing and also showing of our class prophecies.
Ten years from now, we are professionals who are making our dreams come true and are making our difference. Time runs fast, we’re just kindergartens before who still have milk in our mouth but now we are already teenagers who will now face the real world. And as this month end, we are GRADUATES, we will be called, ALUMNI by our teachers and friends in school, our ALMA MATER. The seed that we’ve planted here in HOLY CHILD, had already started to grow its branches, the leaves have grown into beautiful individuals represented by us. And as we fall from our weaknesses and downfalls, we grow again into a stronger individual. We build up the tree and the ground where it was planted is our ALMA MATER, it is where we are cultivated and molded into wonderful individuals. The TRUNK of the TREE was our LEARNINGS, MEMORIES, and FAITH. It makes us strong so that in every storm we are still standing. The TREE was US, we symbolizes it. We had experienced different things in life but still we are here standing firm with FAITH. The branches of the tree, we offer it to GOD who has given us the LIFE and CHANCES. And the leaves were each of us who makes the tree complete and alive. We danced in glory to God for we are showing that here we are, a wonderful tree made to GLORIFY YOU, thanks to our alma mater who had taught us about YOU.
