ENJOYING VIGAN CITY!

Fiestas has always been fun! But for some reason Vigan's Fiesta has been glowing. Every 25th of January, Vigan City Fiesta is being held. It is celebrated during the feast day of St. Paul the Apostle's conversion.

The fiesta is usually celebrated for days because there are just a lot of activities. The residents of the city participates on this activities. A lot of people from places near Vigan also come, just to see the beauty and the joy that surrounds the place. There are also food fairs, arts and crafts, and many more.

They also have the Longganisa street dance and parade! It's a competition, so the best one always takes home the crown!

Bye 2019, Hello new me in 2020!

          2019 was very fun, many good memories that were created, but like always, we have to let it go and say goodbye. 2020 is starting a bit rough. With all of the happenings that are happening to our world, we just can't predict what will happen after.

          Every year we have this thing that we do which is, for me, hard to fulfill, and that is the New year's Resolution. We always look back to the year before and set goals to the year that you're in now. Setting goals that we already know beforehand that we aren't going to finish. Doing that specific goal for lets say a week or a month but we all know that the days, weeks or months after that, that's that, it ends there. But just like they say, at least you tried, right? Trying has never been wrong, but don't you think Doing is actually better than Trying? Achieving always feels good.

          This year I just want to do something that I will feel proud of, make something that will make my family be proud, not laze around and share the blessings that I have to others.

          What makes us not finish this is that we're scared of doing something, we're scared of what others may say. Don't worry about what they will say because you are doing it for you, you want it for you, you change for you. For a change, add 'Not minding what others may say' and 'Don't be scared in DOING'. A New Year is always a great beginning for you to show those talents or things that you are hiding with yourself! Make every year your best with these! Give yourself a chance to be known! Change for the better!

Designing at its Finest!

     

          Time passes so fast! It's like just yesterday when school started-now we're heading to our final quarter! But of course before that we have to look back to what we did this 3rd quarter.

          Just like every 3rd quarter, it flew so fast. A lot of activities were happening and the requirements that the teachers on top doesn't make it any better. But look at that! I made it!

          We made our own web page's and designed it how we like it look. Luckily the content was about the content of the research project that we made the quarter before that.

          I learned how to use the Microsoft Frontpage, which I find quite enjoyable. And now I'm hoping that the final quarter is just as good!

CHRISTMAS SPIRIT

          Remembering how my young self always get excited when the month of September comes, feeling so joyed because finally the long wait has ended and I can already feel the Christmas Spirit. People start to put up Christmas lights on their houses, to lit up the place. Start hearing chirtmas songs that are just what kids love to hear. And seing some people who are utterly excited to put up their christmas decors.

          On the way to December, you will see people moving from house to house, singing the christmas carols. Some people even wake up very early to go to church and listen to God's words, we call that Misa de Gallo. After listening to God's words, outside the church there are vendors who sell sticky rice treats that we can enjoy after. The food are just so perfect and fit for the cold weather especially when you partner it with hot coffe or hot choco.

          Christmas is very much celebrated because it is when Jesus our Savior was given birth. It's not just about the christmas carols, the gifts that you recieved when Christmas Eve came, the reunion of families and the great food that is served, but it is about cherishing and appreciating everyone around you and sharing your blessing to one another. We should also remember to thank God because he is the reason why we have what we have now.

                MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!!!!

CRUEL WORLD

 In this cruel world that we live in, it is expected that people will not always play fair in every game. That's why most women are likely to be the victims of being abused either physical, mental, verbal or sexual ways because of having to be known as slightly weaker and can not fight back to a man. Oftenly, their partners are the ones who commit this violences.

Based on the 2017 National Demographic Health Survey's , or NDHS, preliminary findings, 1 in every 4 married women (aged 15-49) has experienced physical, mental, verbal or sexual abuse/violence by their husband.

But now we can let our worries be lessened, because now we have a law that can protect women. It is The Anti-Violence Against Women and their Children Act of 2004 or the RA 9262. This law protects women's rights. Not only does it protect the women's rights, but protects the children's rights as well. Nontheless, this law can't stop all the abuses that are happening, because we have to engrave in our minds, that this law does not hold the mind of the abuser. It did somehow lessend the violence that are happening, but out there, there is still someone who needs help.

Lets make a move to help these people to escape the nightmare that they are trapped in. And one way to help, is to educate everyone. EVERY. SINGLE. ONE. 

H E A L I N G

 

        We all know that there are so many environmental issues that are arising and still so many issues that are upcoming for this world. And one top contributors is Climate Chage. 

          Climate Change or Global Warming is the greatest environmental threat weve'd ever faced. According to statistics, the global carbon dioxide equivalent of greenhouse gases (GHG) in the atmosphere has exceeded 400 parts per million, which at this level is already considered as a tipping point. 

          This tipping point may lead to irreversible changes in most ecosystems in the world and Mountain Glaciers. This can also lead to destructive sudden heavy rains, intense tropical storms, repeated flooding and droughts are likely to increase

          Climate Chage is not just a normal threat. It is the reason behind humanitarian needs and we can see the results before our eyes. 

          This is a major concern for the environment but since November is the Environmental Awareness Month, this month, we can all start to learn the effects of what we are doing and help to reduce the impact of these environmental issues. I'm sure we all don't want a world without life to happen. That's why we should all start to take care and save the Earth for it is the only Home that we have.

V A L U E S

   

      The Philippines is known for its culture and traditions. People that had already visited the country can guarantee this, it is obvious by its festivals,  museums and etc. It has this unique vibe or atmosphere that just attracts other people to socialize with each other.

          This November we celebrate the Edukasyon sa Pagpapakatao Month (EsP) with the theme: "Pamilyang Pilipino Patatagin: Susi sa Paghubog ng Kabataang Maka-diyos, Makatao, Makakalikasan at Makabansa."

          This year, just like the other years, many kinds of contests are done for this Months Celebration. Activities like Tagis Talino, Mural Painting, Poster Making and Doxology were done.

          The soul purpose of this celebration is on how students can achieve a good characteristics and personality to use towards other students and of course people that are older than them.
