New Year, New Me

Image
It starts with a hope, or a thought that things can be better than they are now. Then, exploring how that might happen. Accepting that we do have the power to make change. It’s doing this versus dwelling on the negative, blaming others, shutting down new ideas, thinking it’s not worth the effort, or whatever other negative self-talk may be taking place. All those things cause us to be stuck. The goal I'm currently striving for this year is to make this world a better place to live in by starting the changes in myself. Sure, I've had bad experiences in my life too, but this is exactly what made me the way I am now: grateful, full of love, with a desire to study well because it will help me become a successful person in the future and have a high quality of life New year, that doesn't mean you need to change yourself for good it means you gotta be the new better version of yourself. I need to filled in my shortcomings and be good in all the thing that I will be doing. I p...

National Women's Month

Image
  In the Philippines, the Women's Month Celebration has since served as a venue to highlight women's achievements and discuss continuing and emerging women's empowerment and gender equality issues and concerns, challenges, and commitments. The Philippine Commission on Women invites advocates of women’s rights to sport purple clothes or accessories every Thursday to show their support and join the call to advance women’s rights and gender equality and end discrimination against women.

Cupid, Draw back your bow!

Image
  What is Valentine's Day? St Valentine's Day is an annual festival to celebrate romantic love, friendship and admiration. Every year on 14 February people celebrate this day by sending messages of love and affection to partners, family and friends. Couples send Valentine's Day cards and flowers and spend special time together to honour their love for each other. While Valentine's Day is celebrated in most countries, different cultures have developed their own traditions for this festival. In some parts of the world Valentine's Day is observed as a day for expressing love between family members and friends, rather than that of romantic couples. Some traditions include leaving lollies and gifts for children and others include acts of appreciation between friends. Valentine's Day is most commonly associated with romantic love, with millions of Valentine's Day cards being exchanged each year. Gifts of flowers or a single red rose are sent with romantic mess...

Reflection for the Second Quarter

Image
  As another quarter passes by, another set of memories are made. In my ICT subject, I learned how HTML works. Through the activities that we have been doing, I slowly inculcate the learnings and be able to love the real meaning of technology. I was also able to update and improve my blogs. In this another chapter, I encountered couples of problems in managing my time but still, I enjoyed the whole journey. Moving on, I will continue to learn new things especially in my ICT subject and learn harder. Source: http://clipart-library.com/coding-cliparts.html

Kannawidan Festival!

Image
             Ilocos Sur is a province rich in culture that represents the ancient Spanish and Filipino heritage. To show and share their treasures to the whole world, the locals conceived a festival that highlights these cultural traditions and they called it the “Kannadiwan Festival”.      Ilocos Sur has a rich heritage and unique culture that are to be preserved for the next generations because it is observed that many of these traditions, songs, dances and other Ilocano culture are not familiar to the younger generations already. Children of today are paying more attention to the modern and novelty dances they seen on the television than the traditional ones. There is also a need to evaluate the different products of the different municipalities and the agricultural products and livestock of the farmers and fisher folks.      Furthermore, Kannawidan is a time given to the Ilokanos to look back on what the histo...

       Vigan City fiesta is one of the biggest events in the Province of Ilocos Sur.   It is held every January 25 and it features different activities that nourished and promotes our diverse cultures as Bigueños.             The fiesta itself is a manifestation of the Bigueños' love for the history and tradition of Vigan City. The Vigan City fiesta have been a “balik-bayan” incentives, or come-ons for expatriates, to visit or come back for good to the town. Showcasing different cultures of Bigueños, the City Government of Vigan presents the Longganisa Street dancing Competition, Longganisa Cookfest, and more. But more than the fun that the town fiesta grants, it is a commemoration of conversion of St. Paul.        The Vigan City fiesta was celebrated online because of the pandemic but still people enjoyed celebrating the fiest.         The fiesta is...

Warming Planet

Image
  Global warming has emerged as one of the most important environmental issues ever to confront humanity. This concern arises from the fact that our everyday activities may be leading to changes in the earth's atmosphere that have the potential to significantly alter the planet's heat and radiation balance. In recent years, climate change has come into focus as a large issue. I believe that the environment stands as a large challenge to today’s society, because of the how much the world has changed over the years. Currently, I find climate change, renewable energy, and pollution to be the most vital challenges to solve through global communication and awareness. Climate change is a serious problem and the effects can clearly be seen through new and extreme weather. I think that many people have under estimated climate change, because they automatically associate it with global warming and do not believe that it is real. However, it is a huge and growing concern.   RE...
