              First Quarter is almost done, I gained new knowledge, new learnings and new experiences. First quarter is like my warm up every school year, I don’t excel that much in this quarter but I always try my best. Different subjects, different learnings, different experience but I have only one goal, which is to finish the quarter without regrets. I’ve learned different equations with Math, how to prepare from different calamities with Araling Panlipunan, understanding texts with English and understanding the movements of the earths surface with Science. I’ve also learned about internet access or connections with ICT, creativity and healthy activities with MAPEH, new learning with Basic Electronics, stories with lessons to learn in Filipino, some parts and different types of Research and learning good morals with Edukasyon sa Pagpapakatao.           In the process of learning, we always encounter problems an...

            Many things has been change because of the COVID-19 pandemic that also causes the whole world to shut down. Last school year, schools here in the Philippines did not open and learning happened through online classes and distance learning. As a student, since it’s my first experience to do learning alone in a whole school year, I feel so exhausted and stressed during those times. There are times that I feel like I can’t continue studying anymore, that I can’t finish all my works in time and many more thoughts that made my energy down in the whole school year. I feel bad for myself because I did not adapt all the things that I need to learn that year because of the pressure I felt.          The new normal of learning is really hard for us students because not all of us can access internet or sometimes we have slow connection, and also lack of gadgets to use especially to those students who are expe...

       We Filipinos are known because of our resiliency. Resilience means the capacity to recover quickly from problems or difficulties. The Philippines is very vulnerable to disasters, it is one of the natural hazard-prone countries in the world. The country is highly prone to natural disasters like earthquakes, tropical cyclones, floods, and volcanic eruptions. Destructions of agricultural products, houses, and government properties always happen after a disaster. But Filipinos will try to overcome this suffering and traumatic disaster experience, showing their resiliency.      In an article written by Pamela, she stated that “Every time, the Filipino nation has to endure, brave the chaos, and stand up the next day. It is from this that we’ve grown to be called a resilient nation. Because we have had to become one.” Being resilient is not a bad thing, but we tend to forget that we’re supposed to be striving for something more. What we need to do af...

  Dear Mr. President,                         Good day Mr, President, how are you doing? It’s hard to lead a country isn’t it? I know that being a president and leading a whole country is such a big responsibility. When making a decision, you need to think smartly for the betterment of your people. I can say Mr. President that your Build, Build, Build(BBB) program is such a big help for our country. Making and building more roads, bridges and railways to make the Philippines more connected. Rehabilitations and constructions of airports for a larger number of tourist accommodations and building more classrooms and hospitals for the nation.               Mr. President there is no person that is so called perfect, we all make mistakes. But when you are a leader of a nation where the sake and safety of your p...
