Science and Technology Week

“ Improving Filipino Lives Through Technological And Scientic Development” is the theme of the University of the Pihilippines Science and Technology Week.
It was a fun and full of excitement last February 19-23, 2007. Before they opened the Sci-tech Week, we have an opening program. Followed by the winners of the essay contest and the winner is Faith Clovell in second years. On February 21 not only the UP Professional Education celebrates it but also the public elementary schools. We invited them to join the contest about the inter-public school contest. I think twenty plus public schools join. And my elementary school whom I came join also. It was held in the Conference Hall at the University of the Philippines College Campus. We are required to see it. We were amazed by Labangon Elementary School for the highest pointer from the easy questions to average questions and to the difficult questions.
On February 22 it was just and ordinary day because we skip it and On February 23 the continous of the Science and Technology week.
On February 23 the continous of the excitement. It just the first words that I heard that there would be Science Olympics. Science Olympics? Wow. Okay it is the battle of speed, accuracy, brains and etc. there are many games on that activity like egg drop, slow bicycle, catapult, ice water relay, aluminum barge and others that are connected to science and technonlogy. It was really fun, full of nervous, excite and all the feelings are mix together.
I join slow bicycle. Really love to bike because I feel happy of th sensational air that passes me. If have a problem I just use my bocycle and if I started biking I feel that my problems ar temporarily washed away. I feel that I am floating in the air . So I decided to join slow bicycle. Unfortanely, I failed of my aim to be famous.
The Science Olmypics was not ended at noon but til afternoon. If there is an opening program there would be also closing program. Closing program is where the awarding cermony will be held and the closing program ceremony. In the closing ceremony Mr. Nunez had a closing remarks. After that, it is followed by the awarding of the winners in the slogan, invertigatory projects and Science Olympics.
In the awarding of the slogan contest. My heart beats fast or for short I was very nervous on that time. Unfortonately I was failed on predicting that we would win but we loss. But its okay because it just a step to enchance our skills in making slogan and we accept for being loser and there is a saying that “ Winners never quit, Quitters never win.”So next time I will keep this saying to encourage me to make beautiful and amiable slogan.
Discoveries in science in recent years have profound impact on our society. Life in this age is moving at a faster rate because of discoveries in science and technonlogy. Therefore, it is important that you take the time to learn them.
