Next Level

    These words mark the end of a semester. It felt as if the cold breeze swept up my worries now that it finally had come to an end. The past two months or so have been challenging indeed. I speculated that the second quarter had something to do with coding, and I was correct. Coding or web design is something I am unfamiliar with, so I was a bit worried that I may not perform well. Though to my surprise, I comprehended it quite well. I created simple web pages that contained various tags that do all sorts of commands thanks to knowing the basics of HTML. I am satisfied with my work and hope to do more splendid things. This proves that just like everything else, we can learn and improve.
    I've faced minor challenges along the way, which held me back a little. These difficulties include non-functional tags, glitches, and occasionally not understanding the instructions effortlessly. Thankfully, these problems were easily solved using the internet or trial and error. Asking my teacher for help was also a way for me to understand the instructions clearer. Not being afraid to ask questions is a great way to educate yourself and gain more information to solve your problem. Solving these troubles and achieving the desired outcome is rewarding. It gives me a sense of hope, a thought that I can do much more.
    Moving on, I will utilize these newly discovered skills to create more. I wish to learn more about the topic and perhaps develop a new talent or hobby because HTML is entertaining and rewarding. As a grade 10 student, I tend to think about what I should do next in life. So I hope that in the following semester, I will find the path that is meant for me.

Kaya ngayong Pasko

It is common knowledge to all of us that the COVID-19 pandemic has impacted our social lives in a negative way. The prohibition of mass gatherings and festivals has affected the way we celebrate occasions, one of them being Christmas. Personally, Christmas is my favorite holiday because it is the season of giving and spending time with your loved ones. Before the pandemic we would celebrate it by having programs at school or at our workplaces, attending “ Misa de Gallo ” or “simbang gabi”, having Noche Buena or going out of town. With the pandemic, we have to find other ways to experience the Christmas cheer.             We spent the previous Christmas during the pandemic and this year we’ll do it again. Though mass gatherings aren’t allowed, we still celebrate it with other people, for example our family and neighbors. One challenge that many families faced is not having relatives from abroad come home and celebrate the holiday ...

Quality Education in a Distance

Image
Since the beginning of the pandemic in March of 2020, mass gatherings have been prohibited. So in person classes have been put on a hold to ensure the safety of the learners, teachers, and staff. This lead to the school year 2019-2020 ending abruptly, meaning most if not all schools got to have their finals or year-end celebrations such as recognition programs and graduations. Despite the deadly virus, our government needed to find a way to continue learning while still ensuring the students’ safety, so they came up with distance learning. Thus, a new school year with a new mode of learning has begun.             Distance learning is a mode of education where the students learn in their homes instead of going to in person school. There are three types of distance learning, modular distance learning (MDL), online distance learning (ODL), and TV/Radio-based instruction. The school I’m learning in specifically chose blended learning,...

Uno Filipino

Since the beginning of the pandemic last 2020, life has been different for everyone in the world. The Filipinos, especially those who are less fortunate have suffered from COVID-19. From the lost jobs, lost loved ones, closed businesses, gatherings prohibited, and schools put on pause, the pandemic has really impacted our country for the worst. Even if it is called the “new normal”, it will never feel natural to live in a Philippines where you can’t go out and eat with your friends, go to school, or even celebrate Noche Buena with your loved ones. It really is a shame that we haven’t defeated it yet but, together, we will find a way. When we talk about the resiliency in the Philippines in relation to the pandemic, I can say it needs some work. Our government has implemented various levels of quarantine and different protocols, but a year has already passed by since the beginning of the pandemic and the only real progress we’ve had is having 22.4% of the population vaccinat...
