parents are always proud with their kids with those medals as a symbol of excellence in achieving merits at school curriculum. And the kid said "Ang bigat ng medal ko mommy, hindi kaya ako makuba nito?" and the mother replied, "Eh masipag ka kasi nak!" with a laugh...
For the parents and kids with those achievements congrats and cherish those memories as part your success. _
me as a student from all my school years... I never had those medals... I only have passing grades just enough, what will I do with those extra grades anyway? I'm just an average student before but looking back at my batchmates with honors there were left behind and got married have kids after school years specially during highschool.
