Отовсюду обо всём

bartag    I was walking to the bars to play bar tag. When I got to the bars, I played against another first grader and there was a second grader waiting in line and she was yelling, “faster, faster, faster." So finally I got tagged and it was the second grader's turn to play. 
 The second grader won and it was my turn to play against somebody that I already didn't like very much because she rushed me. So I got on the bars and said, "Go!" We both ran to a different bar and then she stopped and said, "I'm supposed to say go." "Well, I'm used to saying go and you never told me that you wanted to say go so there's no way I would have known that," I exclaimed.
    She said "I'm supposed to say go!" in a much louder voice. I calmly repeated the same thing as before and she screamed "I'M SUPPOSED TO SAY GO!!" “Fine! Play bar tag with someone who will do it your way!" and with the stormy gray clouds above my head I miserably started to walk laps around the track.

When I was waiting in line I thought I saw the same second-grade girl but there are lots of girls on the playground that looked like her so I asked, "Did I play bar tag with you today?" She said "Yep." Then I said, "Can I talk to you for a moment?" "Sure" and we walked a little bit away so nobody would hear us. "You didn't tell me you wanted to say go so there's no way I would have known that." She said, "For your future reference, the person who won the last round is supposed to say go." "I've been playing bar tag since the first day of school and that was never mentioned in the rules," I said while getting frustrated.
  "Is that a dreidel in your hand?" I asked. With a surprised look on her face she said, "Yep." "Do you celebrate Hanukkah?" I wondered. She nodded her head yes. I said, "My family does too but it's hard because a lot of kids don’t celebrate Hanukkah." "Yeah, I know what you mean," she said with a smile. "May I see your dreidel?" With the sky navy blue and the clouds resting high I had the best recess ever! 

dreamstimexxl1280pI woke up this morning feeling ecstatic as today was the first day of grade 5 and I couldn't wait. My Dad dropped me off to school with a huge smile and a warm hug. I spotted my best friend climbing up the stairs.

"Wait up Ayana!" I called out to her but she simply ignored me and went ahead. That was strange! I felt bad but I didn't want to let that ruin my first day of school!

I soon approached my classroom and was greeted by my teacher. For the first two periods after introducing ourselves, it was only fun and games, until a new girl entered our classroom with her mom. Our teacher and the new girl's mom went outside to have a conversation. Meanwhile, inside the classroom, everyone was just staring at her. I can imagine how she must have been feeling. Our teacher, Miss Amber, introduced us to the new girl. "Liviana is from Hawaii, and has recently shifted from there. Please make her feel comfortable and welcome." 

“Everyone has a voice that deserves to be heard.”

xw1323764You have the knowledge to understand a thing, and you even have the voice to interpret things. Everyone can achieve both abilities, but not all can accomplish all of them.

Philippines is one of the major spots of attraction worldwide, given its own remark of being the “Perlas ng Silangan” or in English, the “Pearl of the East”. This country has the typical characteristics of an attractive country. Tourist spots, mega diverse organisms, wide history, etc... These things had lured you out already, the present happenings in Philippines still matters.

originalThere are killings out there, but not the typical event you all know. Crimes, terrorism, not like that. It’s extrajudicial. It’s out of the law. Guess what? There are no criminals intended in this situation, cops and vigilantes are the killers. This technique is used to stop the illegal drug acts caused by illegal drug pushers. However, it had gone too brutal yet.

Rich people accused for illegal drug acts aren’t killed instantly, but the rights of each people poured down into the canal. Poor people are killed instantly. Instant killing on poor seems unfair. On poor people’ states, accusation and suspicions are enough to become the warrant of arrest.

A new aspect developed on that, poor people are the worst. Their voice distorted. Their knowledge loosened. Hence, can’t understand, can’t interpret.

There’s still a hope that will lie on every people, especially the victims of the unruly killings.

There will still be a voice and knowledge for people to interpret and understand.
