Two more to go!

    This second quarter, it was full of learning. Our teachers patiently taught us lessons despite the 1-month worth of suspension. they taught us lessons even if it meant that we may not get it because of the lack of time. I was able to learn how to code using the HTML tags in the notepad, in which it was fun to accomplish because you'll be able to see the outcomes once you're finished typing. I was also able to learn physics in science wherein we tackled the concave and convex mirrors as well as ray tracings. 

   But despite learning many important things, it was stressful. There was conflict in schedules because many group activities were given to us that we had to submit at the same time. Due to the multiple suspensions, we weren't able to see our classmates for a lot of days which caused a delay in our group works. 

    Fortunately, we were given enough time once the classes came back. Deadlines were extended which
was good for us, and we had review groups which helped us get a lot in our exams. I calmly recollected myself and started working on tasks that was given and submitted them on time. With the help of my classmates, we successfully finished our 2nd quarter.

    Moving on, I will start giving more time to my tasks but I will also start prioritizing my health. I had many sleepless nights so I will get more sleep in order for my brain to function properly. I will give my best and maintain my grades in order to finish my grade 10.

Elpidio's early life, career, and achievements

    Elpidio Quirino was the sixth President of the Philippines who came from humble beginnings to become an important figure in the country’s post-war recovery. He was born at the Vigan Provincial Jail in Ilocos Sur, on the 16th of November 1890, and was raised in a family that valued their education. After studying law at the University of the Philippines, he successfully passed the bar exam in 1915 and began a career in public service.

    Quirino's political journey began in 1925 when he was elected to the Philippine Assembly. Soon, he sat in different government positions, including Secretary of Finance. In 1946, he was elected as the Vice President under President Sergio Osmeña, and in 1948, following the death of President Manuel Roxas, Quirino assumed the presidency.

    As the president, he focused on rebuilding the war-torn country. He secured aid from the United States, implemented policies for economic recovery, and improved education, healthcare, and labor rights. He also played an important role in establishing the Southeast Asia Treaty Organization (SEATO) to counter the spread of communism in the region.

    Quirino’s term of presidency left a memorable legacy in the Philippines that is marked by efforts to bring the Filipino people and modernize the country. After stepping down from politics, he passed away on February 29, 1956, but remains remembered for his dedication to service and his contributions to the nation’s recovery and growth.

ABANTE BABAE

    This 18-day Campaign to End Violence Against Women is an important reminder of the laws that help protect women and children in our country, the Philippines. Laws like the Anti-Violence Against Women and Children (VAWC) Act of 2004 (R.A. 9262), the Anti-Rape Law of 1997 (R.A. 8353), and the Anti-Sexual Harassment Act of 1995 (R.A. 7877) all play important roles in preventing violence and supporting survivors of those bad treatments that they’ve experienced.

    The VAWC Act gives protection to women and children from abuse, giving them a legal way out of harmful situations and the right to fight for themselves. It’s comforting to know that we can run to the law for help, especially when it feels like there’s nowhere else to go. The Anti-Rape Law made it clear that rape is about violating a person’s consent and not just physical force. For young women like me, this is reassuring because it means that our voices and our rights matter and are taken care of. The Anti-Sexual Harassment Act protects women like me in workplaces and schools, making sure that we can study or work without being harassed. It’s an approved law that reminds us that our space, whether be it in schools or on the street, should be respected by everyone. The Safe Spaces Act (R.A. 11313) that was passed in 2019, is significantly important for young women like me. It addresses street harassment, like catcalling in public spaces. With this law, we don’t have to fear harassment when we walk outside, knowing that the law backs us up when our rights are violated.

    As a 15-year-old daughter, these laws give me hope and assurance. They show that there are systems in place to protect us and our rights. But there's still work to be done because more education and awareness is needed. These laws aren’t enough if we don’t educate and spread awareness to the people around us about the importance of giving respect to women. It’s up to us, the next generation, to ensure these laws are respected and that women are safe everywhere in the world. In the end, the 18-day campaign is not just about remembering these laws but about understanding their importance and ensuring a future where women and children can live free from violence.

Pahalagahan at Protektahan

        

       We celebrate the National Indigenous Peoples Month 2024, with the theme "Mga Katutubo at Katutubong Dunong: Pahalagahan, Pangalagaan at Parangalana," to be reminded of the importance of recognizing and honoring the contributions of Indigenous Peoples in our society. This invites us to reflect on the rich cultural heritage that have been passed down through several generations in our country. Indigenous knowledge, coming from centuries of experience and deep connection with the environment of ours, is irrelevant not only to Indigenous communities but to the entire nation.

    For me, this month is an opportunity to appreciate the wisdom that IPs have accumulated over time, from their sustainable agricultural practices to their understanding of local ecosystems and traditional healing methods. It's essential that we not only celebrate but also protect these practices, especially in a time when modernization and globalization threaten to erase these treasures. By preserving and promoting Indigenous culture, we ensure its survival for the future generations.

        As a young Filipino, I believe it is our responsibility to recognize the importance of the Indigenous Peoples in molding the cultural and environmental landscape of our country. The observance of this month calls us to take action, whether through advocacy, education, or even a simple appreciation, to ensure that Indigenous people is safeguarded and given the respect they deserves. By recognizing, protecting, and honoring their culture and traditions, we can create a more inclusive and harmonious society in our country that respects the diversity of all its people.

Resiliency of Our Country

    Our country has faced so many disasters, and the effects of climate change are one of those. From the typhoons "Yolanda" to "Pepito", it is undeniably amazing to see how our country has been able to cope up with it. Not just typhoons but also earthquakes, fluctuation of the temperature, and many more due to climate change. Many infrastructures and historical places have been damaged due to those disasters. We, as citizens of our country, care for our land. We want to restore what has been damaged and be one to face the obstacles in the Philippines. 

    Despite the challenges brought by climate change, we are able to overcome the problems that the universe gives our land. How? By helping and standing strong as a country. In short, resiliency. Because of our resiliency, we are able to create progress for our country and for its people. We reap what we sow and that is the beauty that our country possesses. Building resilience has been a part of every Filipino, and we are known for that. 

    In our lives, it is never complete without worrying about our safety as a country. And yet, we are always able to prepare to conquer the challenges in our lives that involve our country's well-being. As our country faces more disasters in the future, we learn and commit to resiliency as a country, to always get back on our feet and be ready to conquer the challenges of the future. Helping one another is the life of the Filipinos. Thus, climate change might be the biggest problem in the world, but altogether, we are stronger for our future.

For the Children of our Nation

 

   The celebration of the 2024 National Children's Month with the theme: "Break the Prevalence, End the Violence: Protecting Children, Creating a Safe Philippines.", we aim to create an environment for the children and future generations of our country. Ending the violence means that the children can develop physically and emotionally without the need of isolating oneself due to the fear of violence. This violence can cause trauma that the children will carry, which is why in today's time, it is our goal to make a safer place for everyone, especially to the children. 

    This celebration gives every child, the special opportunity to be able to express themselves, show their skills and talents, and be the best version of themselves through activities that focus on the participation of children, in order to showcase their intelligence and creativity. By conducting those activities, we are able to enhance and support the abilities that the children of our country possess. 

    The best thing that our country can do for the children is to give them the love and care that they need especially in growing up. Moreover, the theme captures our goal as a country which is to protect the future of our nation, and give them a safe environment to grow up in. As Dr. Jose Rizal said, "Kabataan ang pag-asa ng bayan.".

1 down, 3 more to go

         In this journey, we have finished our first quarter and there are so many learnings that have given me

enough knowledge to understand and be able to improve my performance. I also learned to be resourceful because there are more resources inside and outside the school, that I started using. So far, Grade 10 has been good despite getting really stressed since i have an organization to handle. The only thing left is the number of ideas, information, and notes. 

       Now, I have a problem with the feeling of being overwhelmed. With the number of tasks, responsibilities as a student, leader, and a daughter are very overwhelming. Also with time management, i get a hard time accomplishing all before their respective deadlines. It made me feel inferior as to what i maybe really am but it also made me feel incable of achieving things. 

        But luckily, i was able to survive the first quarter with the support of my friends and acquaintances. They gave me motivation to finish everything and have a rest. They made me realize how important it was to rest after a tiring day when I used to just invalidate myself and tell myself that i am undeserving of getting a rest. I realized my priorities and started managing my time.

        Moving on, I will continue to do my best and make efforts in order to achieve a higher grade this second quarter and the rest.
