Kannawidan

 



      Kannawidan has been one of the most anticipated annual festivals in the province, enhancing Ilocano culture. One way to comprehend network is to consider it as a social structure in which humans establish a sense of similarity based entirely on their culture; therefore, the place to start with network is the culture (Cohen, 1985).

      Kannawidan Festival is a festival that takes place from the last week of January to the first week of February. On the day of the outlet, a mass is usually held at the St. Paul Metropolitan Cathedral. It is commemorated by a procession through the city of the Patron Saints of the forty parishes, as well as images of Jesus Christ and the Virgin Mary. It is the Ilocanos' way of surrendering to the Almighty. Another attraction that draws crowds is the set at Vigan Plaza Hotel, in which residents of Ilocos Sur dress up in retro attire and celebrate their birthdays to the tune of vintage songs, drowning in memories of vintage Ilocos. Plaza Salcedo also hosts a food pageant.

      This competition was created by the local government of Ilocos Sur to encourage younger generations to learn about the province's indigenous songs and dances. Furthermore, this rivalry serves as a reminder that we must no longer ignore our subculture and practices.

Araw ng kagitingan/Bataan Death March

Image
        The Philippine national holiday Araw ng Kagitingan, commonly known as Bataan Day or Bataan and Corregidor Day, commemorates the fall of Bataan during World War II. It is celebrated on April 9, though it was changed to April 6 in 2009 to avoid clashing with Maundy Thursday.        The surrender of the Philippines to Japan resulted in some of the worst crimes in contemporary wartime history. As a result of the Japanese troops' failure to provide food and drink to their hostages, several soldiers became weak and began to fall behind the rest of the company. Those who fell behind were beaten to death. Those who were unlucky were run over by army trucks and other vehicles.        The seized soldiers were to be transported to Camp O'Donnell, which the Japanese had converted into a jail. Soldiers were loaded into boxcars in San Fernando during the march. Men who didn't fit in were compelled to walk. The imprisoned soldiers were sent to Cabanatuan prison camp to join the pr

Not at all

  "Viva Vigan!", "Oy oy oy oy oy", drum beats, song in the lyre, smiles, a native Ilocana holding the statue of Sto. Niño, cheering of the crowd, colorful costumes and a lot more were missed for this year. The city fiesta just passed like a ghost in town wherein some of us did felt it but most didn't. We, the Bigueños, weren't able to celebrate the town fiesta like what we used to have before.  It's been more than a year since the pandemic started to trouble this world. COVID 19 messed up all that we expected, we need and we want to do. This virus caused so much of pain and changes in our lives. We seldom have the chance to go out or have fun just like the Vigan City Fiesta Celebration. We all knew that it is a grand event that we are always preparing for. The Longganisa Festival, church activities, competitions, concerts And some other gatherings were all cancelled just because we're undergoing the process of community quarantine. We understand that

Reflection

 This is the last quarter of the 2020-2021 school year, and we're moving on to the next level, Senior High School. Those obstacles, problems, and sacrifices are all part of the process of becoming successful in the future. This quarter, we learnt how to create a website using Microsoft Frontpage. This is beneficial to me, and I believe I will make use of all of my knowledge on this subject in the future. Despite the fact that we are in the midst of a pandemic, we still have the opportunity to learn. I'd also like to express my gratitude to all of the teachers for their efforts, despite the fact that not all students took this school year seriously. But you're still there to teach and lead us, which we all appreciate. THANK YOU SO MUCH! ..
