12:51Krissy and ErickaScrolling through my cell phone for the
20th time todayReading that text you sent me againThough I
memorized it anyway
It was in afternoon in DecemberWhen it reminded you of the
dayWhen we bumped into each otherBut you didn't say hi cause I
looked away
And maybe that was the biggest mistake of my lifeAnd maybe I
haven't moved on since that night
Cause it's 12:51 and I thought my feelings were goneBut I'm
lying on my bed, thinking of you againAnd the moon shines so
bright, but I gotta dry these tears tonightCause you're moving on
and I'm not that strong to hold on any longer
Oh oh oh oh...
Then I saw you with herDidn't think you'd find anotherAnd my
world just seemed to crashShouldn't have thought that this would
last[ Lyrics from:

As the sky outside gets brighterAnd my eyes begin to tireI'm
slowly drowningIn memories of him
And I know it shouldn't matterAs my heart begins to shatterI'm
left to wonderJust how it should have been... yeah...

History of the Philippine Educational System
Education in the Philippines evolved from early settlers to the
present. Education in the country is in great importance because it
is the primary avenue for upward social and economic mobility.
Philippine educational system has a very deep history from the past
in which it has undergone several stage of development going to the
present system of education.
Education from Ancient Early Filipinos
The education of pre-Spanish time in the Philippines was
informal and unstructured. The fathers taught their sons how to
look for food and other means of livelihood. The mothers taught
their girls to do the household chores. This education basically
prepared their children to became good husband and wives.
Early Filipino ancestors valued education very much. Filipino
men and women knows how to read and write using their own native
alphabet called alibata. The alibata was composed of 17 symbols
representing the letters of the alphabet. Among these seventeen
symbols were three vowels and fourteen consonants.
Educational System During Spanish Period
The educational system of the Philippines during the Spanish
times was formal. The Religious congregations paved the way in
establishing schools from the primary level to the tertiary level
of education. The schools focused on the Christian Doctrines. There
was a separate school for boys and girls. The wealthy Filipinos or
the Ilustrados were accommodated in the schools. Colonial education
brought more non-beneficial effects to the Filipinos.
Educational Decree 1863
The first educational system for students in the country was
established by virtue of the Education Decree of 1863. In
furtherance, the decree required the government to provide school
institutions for boys and girls in every town. As a consequence,
the Spanish schools started accepting Filipino students. It was
during this time when the intellectual Filipinos emerged. The
Normal School was also established which gave men the opportunity
to study a three-year teacher education for the primary level.
* Education during the Spanish Regime and Its Colonial Effects
to the Filipinos
Educational System During American Period
Like the Spaniards, the Americans brought many changes in their
45 years of reign in the country. Until now, these American
influences can still be seen in our lifestyle or way of life.
The Commonwealth provided free education in public schools all
over the country, in accordance with the 1935 constitution.
Education also emphasized nationalism so the students were taught
about the life of the Filipino heroes. Vocational education and
some household activities like sewing, cooking, and farming were
also given importance. Good manners and discipline were also taught
to the students. The institute of Private Education was established
in order to observe private schools. In 1941, the total number of
students studying in the 400 private schools in the country reached
10,000. There was also the existence of "Adult Education" in order
to give formal education even to adults.
* American government gave importance to Education
Changes in Education During the Japanese Occupation
The government made some changes in the system of education in
February, 1942. These changes were:
To stop depending on western countries like the U.S., and Great
Britain. Promote and enrich the Filipino culture. To recognize that
the Philippines is a part of the Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity
Sphere so that the Philippines and Japan will have good relations.
To be aware of materialism to raise the morality of the Filipinos.
To learn and adopt Nippongo and to stop using the English language.
To spread elementary and vocational education. To develop love for
work.
Educational System in the Present Period
Philippine education is patterned after the American system,
with English as the medium of instruction. Schools are classified
into public (government) or private (non-government). The general
pattern of formal education follows four stages: Pre-primary level
(nursery, kindergarten and preparatory) offered in most private
schools; six years of primary education, followed by four years of
secondary education.
College education usually takes four, sometimes five and in some
cases as in medical and law schools, as long as eight years.
Graduate schooling is an additional two or more years. Classes in
Philippine schools start in June and end in March. Colleges and
universities follow the semestral calendar from June-October and
November-March. There are a number of foreign schools with study
programs similar to those of the mother country. An overall
literacy rate was estimated at 95.9 percent for the total
population in 2003, 96 % for males and 95.8 % for females.
