"Education: A Right and Not a Privilege"

 

 

        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 experiencing extreme poverty during this pandemic. Because of these reasons, many students did not get the opportunity to enroll, many of them stopped attending classes for a while and waiting for schools to open so that they can continue attending classes. Education is not only for privilege people, it’s a right that all people should have. Now, online classes and distance learning is still on going in our country while the whole world already open all of their schools.



        I hope by next school year, all schools in the Philippines will already re-open so that all students who wants to learn and study will have an opportunity to attend classes. Because I believe in a saying, that Education is a Right and not a Privilege. Education for all, lets learn together for the betterment of our future. Improvement of quality of education is needed, greater and equal opportunities for the nation's youth is what we wanted.

    We have the same thoughts! I commend you for being brave enough to express what you feel about online classes online. "Education is not only for privilege people, it’s a right that all people should have" I love this phrase from you!

"The Battle of Bataan: The Bataan Death March"

              The Battle of Bataan happened during the World War II, began on January 6, 1942 and ended on April 9, 1942 as the Bataan troops surrendered. After the Filipino and American Bataan troops surrendered to the Japanese troops, the Bataan Death March happened.   Most of the prisoners(Bataan troops) began the long walk in Mariveles, at the tip of Bataan, and had to march the full 66 miles to the rail head; others joined along the way. The Japanese brutalized their captives during the march north to the trains that would take them to a prison camp. They beat them incessantly, sometimes to move them along, sometimes just for sport. Many of the prisoners were battle worn and incapable of keeping up the grueling pace of the march, especially in the tropical heat and with little water. Those who dropped from exhaustion or sickness, fell behind, broke ranks to fetch water, or tried to escape were bayoneted, shot, or ...

"a moment to remember"

And now, our grade 10 journey is going to end in a few days, which means, junior high school life comes to an end too. It's been a wonderful moment, our beloved junior high school life. Learning, discoveries, improvements, and maturity throughout this phase of life. During the 4th quarter, we were able to have a chance to experience face to face learning again after 2 years of having distance learning. We were able to get that special experience and a wonderful moment for a short time. I was able to enjoy and appreciate the courage, strength and guidance of our teachers during this last quarter. The laughs, stories and short memories we made during this short time moment will truly and forever be with us. We were able to perform and make our own Frontpage during the 4th quarter in ICT with the guidance of our teacher, I was able to enjoy doing it, though we shared many laughs and smiles when we are creating our own front pages. This is it, the last quarter in 10th grade, the last c...

"The Change Starts With You"

For how many years, we have seen how people neglected and ignored their waste, with no proper disposal and lack of responsibility. People's ignorance towards the environment and its effect is now little by little being visible in our sights. The numerous plastics and other waste materials covering rivers, floods in various urban areas because of trash trapped in drainage, and harming different species in land, water and air.  The global effect of neglected wastes and improper waste disposal is very dangerous to our environment and our health. We need to fight this harmful effects for us and our environment to be safe. We can help to combat these problems by simply practicing the proper waste disposal through separating the biodegradable and non-biodegradable materials, the usage of biodegradable materials in daily life, helping different programs and organizations that aims to guide people, protect the environment, and advocates cleanliness in the environment.
