REFLECTION: FOURTH GRADING LESSONS

In our final quarter, I've learned about a lot of things, especially about image editing using Photoshop. We learned about the tools, filters, panels and other equipments that Photoshop has. We reported and demonstrated on how to edit images using Photoshop. We watched video tutorials for guiding us in editing images. Our teacher gave us an activity or project about editing images using Photoshop and it's about promoting our own school.

But of course, I still encountered some problems but thanks to my classmates they helped me with it. It was fun editing images using Photoshop. And hopefully, in the future, I can apply all the things I've learned about image editing.

My Dream, My Future

"Live your values, Pursue your dreams, and Follow your passions." This really implies the true ways we must do to have the best future life we could possibly have. Seeing through around the earth, we will find all kinds of people exist in this world. I think why those people are different from each other might be a difficult task to study--which factor influences and drives them different. It is lucky that I am the one among them so I know that mine is my dream.

Over my life time I would like to achieve many things but there are three main things I would like to accomplish; to be a better person, help my loving parents, and especially to serve my fellows. I have been exhilarating by my dream, from the day I knew why I came into the world to so far and even in future, which is making me different from others. It is a goal, an aim, a direction for my life. It is not strange from outside, but from inside.

It is to be a nurse. At first, I could hardly decide what I want to be in the future because there are so many choices painted in my mind. But at this time, I am at the crossroads where I have to make decisions especially at my choice of course in the college and at the same time, my profession. With all the sacrifices that my parents are exerting just to send me in school, I don't have reasons not to give my bests all the time. 

At that time, I have my job and I have something to make them feel so proud of me, I would like to give them the best life. I would like to make them feel comfortable and see sweet smiles in their faces. This is really the one I like to achieve in my life, mountains of words can't explain how much I love and appreciate them. With all of my knowledge and values learned, I would like to share these to my fellows especially to those youths, in the future, by serving them with unconditional, whole-hearted and without any ambiguity or doubts.

This really shows our compassion and charitable heart for others. Simple dreams of mine for others but worth living reasons for me. I, together with my parents, have a simple means of living; but because of firm determnation, strong faith in God, good values and virtues I assure that we will have the bests of life in the future not because of the luxuries but the richness of love, compassion for people and passion for God. These are my dreams, my inspiration which I have to work on for the future.

KANNAWIDAN FESTIVAL

Kannawidan is a festivity which the City of Vigan celebrates every year. In this festival, the Ilocano people showcase cultural shows, native products and the talents of the Ilocanos. Kannawidan Ylocos Festival became an annual festival that aims to create awareness on the preservation of the province’ rich cultural heritage, practices and traditions, and a showcase of the different agriculture and industry products of the province. There is a need to preserve our rich heritage and unique culture. With this in mind, the provincial government of Ilocos Sur has conceived a festival that highlights these culture and traditions and attract local and foreign tourists as well.

CHANGE: IT STARTS WITH ME

Blessed with intellect and a set of skills, we, the human race, have been placed on Earth for a purpose, and it is our duty in life to discover exactly what that purpose is. As stated in the Bible, “to whom much is given, much is expected.” I believe giving back to society is, quite simply, a responsibility.

Changing the world begins with improving who we are on the inside. We each have a unique identity and our own distinct thoughts. These thoughts often propel us to act. So, by mindfully centering our thoughts in a positive direction, we can improve our actions and thus our character.

I can improve the world by consciously looking around and thinking, at every opportunity, how can I help? The most powerful way one can change the world isn’t simply by doing one thing, but instead is a way of life revolving around the concept of altruism. While some may side with the philosopher Hobbes and argue that every act is tainted by primal human desires of remembrance and power, and thus is not truly selfless, I disagree. Charitable acts are not selfish because they improve our society as a whole.

The positive impact I can make starts within myself; by becoming a truly giving person, I can change the world. While self-improvement may seem a passive process, it’s actually a challenge requiring daily practice. It involves continually controlling my thoughts and actions to determine the type of person I want to be. My mission to positively change the world begins with self-improvement and concludes with making kind acts an instinctive part of my life.

NEW YEAR, NEW ME?

Each and every year, the phrase ‘New year, new me’ sweeps social media. And every January, I see an influx of people admitting they’ve failed their resolutions just a few days in. I think it’s about time we put this whole idea that a new year makes you a different person to bed. Because let’s face it, the only thing that really changes is the date.

For some people, all they want to do is put the year behind them and focus on the next one. But we seem to have this idea that going into a new year immediately eliminates all the bad that happened the year prior. We make all these plans to start our ‘new’ selves, and we punish ourselves for not keeping to those plans as we fall back into the same ways of the year before. It’s about time we stopped focusing on the calendar, and stop it with the time limits altogether. It seems silly to give yourself a time limit to change. It piles on pressure to start right away and make drastic decisions. But the ‘new year, new me’ pressure means we tell ourselves off for it, and make ourselves feel guilty. Which, in turn, only puts us off keeping to resolutions in the long-run.

This is the only way we’re able to actually change our bodies and our lifestyles and stick to it – knowing that there’s no rush, that you have time and that you’re not a failure if it takes you longer than you thought.

Equal Rights, Equal Opportunities For All

"The earth is the mother of all people, and all people should have equal rights upon it"

From its inception, the League of Women Voters has worked for equal rights and social reform. In the early years, the League was one of the first organizations to address such issues as child welfare, maternal and child health programs, child labor protection and laws that discriminated against women. 

Employment opportunities in modern, technological societies are closely related to education. Therefore, the League supports programs to increase the education and training of disadvantaged people. The League supports federal, state and local efforts to prevent and/or remove discrimination in education, employment and housing and to help communities bring about racial integration of their school systems.

The LWV supports equal rights for all regardless of sex. The League supports action to bring laws into compliance with the ERA: to eliminate or amend those laws that have the effect of discriminating on the basis of sex, to promote laws that support the goals of the ERA, and to strengthen the enforcement of such existing laws. 

It is valuable to have programs that would inform individuals of their civil rights in education, employment and housing and of the opportunities open to them. 

Opportunities for purchase or renting of homes and for borrowing money for housing should not be restricted because of discriminatory reasons such as race, color, sex, religion or national origin. Responsibility in the nationwide effort to achieve equality of opportunity for access to housing resides with government at all levels and with the private sector — builders, lending institutions, realtors, labor unions, business and industry, news media, civic organizations, educational institutions, churches and private citizens. 

Working together we can seek to secure equal rights and equal opportunity for all and promote social and economic justice,health and safety in our county, state and nation.

True Essence of Christmas

This Christmas season, it is important for us to bear in our minds the reason why we are celebrating this yuletide season in the first place. In this month of December, it is a must for us to remember that our Lord came in this world in order to save us from our sins; He came to redeem us from the wickedness of this world.

We also have to recollect the fact that our Lord God is humble being born only in a manger. This is the message that is sent to us - we must learn how to humble ourselves, no matter how rich or financially wealthy we are because Christ himself symbolizes humility. Even though He is a son of God, He did not demanded for a special “birthing place” or become “man” in a wealthy family; instead, He was born in a poor family.

Anyway, the essence of celebrating Christmas season is not to have a house full of Christmas lights, having a tall and beautiful Christmas tree full of gifts underneath it and giving expensive gifts. Christmas basically means sharing what you have, not just the material things but also those that can only be felt like a warm, tight hug, a simple thank you, showing our appreciation to our loved ones and forgiveness among others.

Whichever of these are important to you this holiday season, just remember that it’s the thought that counts and that love is the most important thing in the world. When love governs our hearts and minds, everything will follow and we don’t need to wait for Christmas time to share our love to other people.

Isulong: Tamang Pag-aaruga Para sa Lahat ng Bata

Mahirap maging isang propesyonal. Totoong walang madaling  propesyon dito sa mundo subalit may mas hihigit pa ba sa propesyong pagiging isang magulang?  

Ang pagiging isang magulang ay ang pinakamahirap sa lahat ng karera sa mundo. Pinaplano ng karamihan ang pagsalang sa hamong ito ngunit minsan, sadyang  binibigay ito ng pagkakataon nang hindi pa napapanahon sa ibang tao. Bilang mga magulang, responsibilad nila ang tamang pag-aaruga sa kanilang mga anak sa mabuti o maging sa  pinakamasaklap na panahon.

Kinakailangan ang magkatuwang na pwersa ng nanay at tatay upang mapalaking mabuti ang ang anak. Ito'y  nangangahulugang dapat maglaan ng sapat na oras at panahon ang dalawang magulang para sa bata. Nararapat na magsimula  sa tahanan ang tamang edukasyon, asal at disiplina upang maging mabuti at kapakipakinabang na mamamayan ang mga bata.

Kung ang isang bata ay lalaking disiplinado at maprinsipyo, tiyak na siya ay magiging inspirasyon at magiging marangal na ehemplo sa iba kaya napakalaking papel ang ginagampanan ng responsableng paggiging magulang. Nakabatay sa tamang pag-aaruga ang  kaunlaran at kahihinatnan ng isang bansa.

Mapanuring Paggamit ng Gadgets Tungo sa Mapagkalingang Ugnayan sa Pamilya at Kapwa

“Bagong teknolohiya sa makabagong panahon; gamitin ito ng wasto at naaayon para sa ikabubuti ng lahat.”

Ginawa at inimbento ang bagong teknolohiya upang mapadali ang pakikipag-ugnayan ng bawat tao, kahit saang lupalop pa ito ng mundo. Napapadali nito ang paggalaw ng bawat tao, mapa-personal man o kahit sa negosyo. Ngunit sa kalakaran ngayon, maaaring may mga iba na inaabuso ang makabagong teknolohiya at ginagamit ito upang manira ng kapwa. Huwag sana natin hayaan na lamunin tayong mga tao ng mga kasangkapang mga tao rin naman ang gumawa.

Napakalaking papel ang ginagampanan ng gadgets sa pang-araw-araw na buhay ng makabagong tao. Napakarami ng nagagawa ng  computers ngayon, at halos lahat yata ng gawain ay mayroon nang paglahok ng smartphones.

Ngunit sa kabila ng maraming kabutihang naidudulot ng gadgets sa ating buhay, kapag hindi sila ginamit sa tama, nagiging dahilan din ang paggamit nito upang maging magkalayo ang mga tao. May mga pag-aaral ding nagsasabi na nagiging sanhi ang mga ito ng pagbabago sa pag-uugali ng mga tao at ilang mga sakit din.

Kaya naman mahalaga ang mapanuring paggamit ng gadgets. Sa ganitong paraan, napapakinabangan natin ang magagandang naidudulot ng gadgets. Nagiging daluyan din ito ng maganda at mapagkalingang ugnayan sa pamilya at kapwa, sa halip na ito ay maging dahilan ng pagkakawatak-watak.

Pagbasa: Susi sa Magandang Kinabukasan

"The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you’ll go." 

Generations of children have been lured into an appreciation of books and reading by works at the same time that their brains were being exposed to the cadence and rhyme that we now understand is so important for the development of literacy.

Reading is important because it develops the mind. The mind is a muscle. It needs exercise. Understanding the written word is one way the mind grows in its ability. Teaching young children to read helps them develop their language skills. It also helps them learn to listen. Everybody wants to talk, but few can really listen. Reading helps children (and adults) focus on what someone else is communicating.

Reading is important because words - spoken and written - are the building blocks of life. You are, right now, the result of words that you have heard or read AND believed about yourself. What you become in the future will depend on the words you believe about yourself now. People, families, relationships, and even nations are built from words. Think about it.

REFELCTION: SECOND GRADING LESSONS

In our second grading period of ICT, I've learned about a lot of things like about the internet access. The two parts of it which is the LAN and the Wireless Broadband Access. And also, I learned how to create HTML for the web design. And of course, we still continued to post more articles.

But of course, there are still those times that I encountered problems. It's unavoidable. And thankfully, I surpassed them. I addressed these challenges through the help of our ICT teacher, Mrs. Vera Cruz.  She taught us and guided us on how to create HTML for the web design. And also to my seatmates and classmates who taught me and guided me on those things. 

I will try to enhance my writing skills and knowledge about computer and maybe still continue blogging and creating HTML because for me, this is a fun thing to do. And thank you to our ICT teacher and the subject, I encountered this, blogging and creating HTML. I've learned a lot. And hopefully, I can still post articles again and apply all the things I've learned into it. 

The International Day for the Eradication of Poverty

This year marks the 70th anniversary of the proclamation of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. It is important to recall the fundamental connection between extreme poverty and human rights, and that people living in poverty are disproportionately affected by many human rights violations. 

Government policies alone cannot create the social inclusion that is fundamental to reaching those left furthest behind and overcoming poverty in all its dimensions. The commemoration of October 17 each year, when people living in poverty take the floor and share their experiences, demonstrates how we can achieve greater social inclusion by enabling people from all walks of life to come together to respect the human rights and dignity of people living in poverty. It underscores the importance of reaching out to people living in poverty and building an alliance around their priorities with citizens from all backgrounds to end extreme poverty. It recognizes the important mutual roles and relationships we have with each other based on our common and equal dignity.

The persistence of poverty, including extreme poverty, is a major concern for the United Nations and, at its 72nd session, the General Assembly launched the Third United Nations Decade for the Eradication of Poverty (2018–2027), under the theme “Accelerating global actions for a world without poverty”. It is important that the Third Decade’s inter-agency, system-wide plan of action to coordinate the poverty eradication efforts of the United Nations system includes an effective partnership with people living with poverty.

The International Day for the Eradication of Poverty can strongly complement such initiatives because it aims to ensure that the active participation of people living in extreme poverty and those furthest behind is a driving force in all efforts made to overcome poverty, including in the design and implementation of programs and policies which affect them. Only by creating and nurturing a genuine partnership with people living with poverty will it be possible to build an inclusive world where all people can enjoy their full human rights and lead lives with dignity.

A teacher plays great role in the student’s lives. Teachers are the real shapers of future of the students which can never be ignored. Teachers make their own lesson plan to make education more effective and interesting as well as facilitate students learning.

Teacher’s day is a great occasion for celebrating and enjoying the relationship between teachers and students. Now a day, it is celebrated with the big enthusiasm and joy in the schools, colleges, universities and other educational institutions by both students and teachers. Teachers are given lots of wishes about long life from their students. In the modern time the celebration strategy of the teacher’s day has been standard. Students become so happy at this day and plan for the way of wishing their favorite teachers. Some students wish their favorite teachers by giving them gifts, greeting cards, pen, diaries, etc. Some students wish their teachers by sending them audio messages, emails, video messages, written messages, through online chat, social media websites like Facebook, twitter, etc. Someone just say “Happy teacher’s day” orally to wish.

We should realize the necessity and value of our teachers in our lives and celebrate Teachers’ Day every year to pay them homage for great job.

Science Month Celebration 2018: "Wavefront: Accentuating Potentials, Activating Technological Advancements"

"Wavefront: Accentuating Potentials, Activating Technological Advancements" is the theme of the National Science Club Month this 2018. According to the “National Science Club Month” group, the National Science Club Month is being celebrated every  September. 

For me, the theme means that we must discover our own inner potential so that we can contribute to technological advancements in our own little ways. Our passion for something can lead us to find ways to make our work more efficient. Contributing to more efficiency is a technology in itself because it helps us make our life easier. 

If we discover our potentials as early as now, we will know more about ourselves such as our strengths and our weaknesses. If we know these, we can capitalize on our own strengths and improve our weaknesses so that we can contribute to our society. Who knows, we might be the next scientist, architect, engineer, doctor, teacher or officer out there. Regardless of what occupation we might have, if we accentuate and capitalize on our potentials, we can surely make a difference to make this world a better place - just like how technology does it.

Resilience of Filipinos on Disaster

Disaster resilience is the ability of individuals, communities, organisations and states to adapt to and recover from hazards, shocks or stresses without compromising long-term prospects for development. According to the Hyogo Framework for Action (UNISDR, 2005), disaster resilience is determined by the degree to which individuals, communities and public and private organisations are capable of organising themselves to learn from past disasters and reduce their risks to future ones, at international, regional, national and local levels.

“The world recognizes the resilience of the Filipino spirit. Even after experiencing the worst disaster, we find reason to smile and laugh, we help others even if we are victims too, and we immediately go about our business. Resilience has been a remarkable strength of our citizens, but at the end of the day, the greater challenge after a typhoon or earthquake is always how to rebuild our communities?”

It is estimated that each year an average of 20 typhoons make landfall in the Philippines. The strongest of these storms create significant damage and can cause many fatalities. In 2013, Super Typhoon Yolanda (also known as Typhoon Haiyan elsewhere), which was one of the strongest storms ever recorded at landfall, claimed approximately 6 000 lives and damaged a million homes in nine regions.

In view of the latent typhoon and other natural disaster risks, the Philippine government had already started to change its strategic approach a couple of years earlier in the wake of the 2009 typhoon season, which had caused losses of USD 4.4 billion (equivalent to 2.7% of GDP). It introduced new legislation marking a move from disaster response to disaster risk reduction and preparedness, and started to implement a three-tiered Disaster Risk Financing and Insurance strategy.

The three tiers refer to the national, sub national and household level. At the national level, the government negotiated a contingent credit line with the World Bank to provide immediate liquidity in the aftermath of a natural disaster. In 2017, protection was added at the sub national level for the most exposed provinces. Supported by the World Bank, Swiss Re and other partners, the government bought a parametric earthquake and typhoon cover offering up to USD 200 million of protection to 25 provinces along the eastern edge of the Philippine archipelago. The risk has been fully ceded to local and national re/insurers, including Swiss Re, who will quickly provide provincial governments with liquidity in the event of a disaster.
