Sinulog Atmosphere

By Teacher Sherwin



The Philippines, an archipelago country located in Southeast Asia that holds 7,641 islands, is a land widely known for its hospitality and archipelago. The country that had been colonized by Spain centuries ago for three hundred and thirty-three (333) years got some of its traditions that remain present on this very day, especially in the religion aspects as majority of the population are Roman Catholics. 
With that in mind, Filipinos love to celebrate festivals to show their love, faith, and devotion. There are roughly forty-two thousand (42,000) festivals being celebrated each year, making it known as the "Capital of the World's Festivities." These festivals can be found at the town, city, provincial, national, and village levels, and most of them take place in what we call barangay (village).
And out of those forty-two thousand (42,000) festivals celebrated each year, one among those festivals really stands out the most, which is Sinulog. The Sinulog Festival, celebrated on the third Sunday of January every year, is held in the Queen City of the South, Cebu and solely devoted to Cebuanos' patron, Senior Santo Niño, or the Child Jesus. Millions of people, not only in the Philippines but all around the globe, gather each year to witness this world-class festival. The main highlights of the festival are street dancing, street parties, and Sinulog dance. Apart from all that, the Cebuanos is what sets this festival apart. Their optimism, charisma, and amicable smiles are to die for.

A gift that made me happy when I was a child

By Teacher Ayna



A gift is something that is given wholeheartedly without expecting anything in return. It symbolizes some of the special occasions, like birthdays, weddings, anniversaries, and some holidays. And it holds some precious memories in my life.

When I was a child, I received one of the best gifts that a child could ever ask for. As a little girl, I used to dream of having a cute stuffed animal that I could hug in my sleep, but one day, my father brought home a pair of fun-sized birds in a cage. They were so full of life and cheery. They had vibrant colors that fed my eyes with their beauty. They were so charming that I spent my time gazing at them all day. It was indeed one of the happiest moments in my childhood.

As I grew older, I realized a gift is not only material things; it is always more than that. It's not the size of the gift or how extravagant it looks. The ones that come from the most sincere hearts are still the best gifts of all.

~重要単語~
wholeheartedly:心を込めて
occasion:機会
a pair of:一組の、一対の
vibrant:鮮やかな
sincere:誠実
