I Know That I Can

This quarter is a blast.  I've learned and gained something new again and I will forever treasure it in my heart.  It may be hard to understand because the lessons were new to me but afterwards, I may say that I've understand it because of our great teacher.  Also, it was tiring.  We have a lot of activities and our schedule was full and we have a lot of requirements to do but I think I've succeeded to give equal time for lessons and activities.  That's why I thank my teacher for understanding me.

I will surely apply all the things that I've learned to my everyday life and to apply it in the future to reach my goals.  I will study hard to achieve my dreams.  Yes, I know that I can!

Happy Birthday, Jesus!

"Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us" -Matthew 1:23

Christmas is about giving and sharing.  For me, christmas is one of my favorite time because we could spend a great time and have fun with our whole family.  It is also a special season because it is the birth of our saviour, Jesus Christ.

When Christmas break is approaching, we can see a big smile on every person's face.  

Everybody is looking forward for Christmas because of gifts, raffles, foods, and the family reunion.  Every  midnight of December 24, we always go to mass and we celebrate Noche Buena after the mass.  My parents, titos, titas, lolo, and lolas will give us gifts and money.  Then on December 25, we always gather and have a mini Christmas party at "Turod".  But Christmas is not only about foods and gifts.  Christmas is the time when we celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ.  He is our savior.  He sacrificed himself for us.  And as a gift for Him, we should give love and share blessings to other people.  In this, many people will be happy same goes to Him.  Merry Christmas Everyone!!!

Stop, Now!

We all know that violence against women and children is one of the major problem that we are facing now a days.  There's still those countries that dominates women.  They violate and torture women and worst they are being neglected by the society.  As years passed, women had already the courage to voice out their rights as women.  That there is equality between male and female, that no one should be allowed to go under violence. 

And because of the inequality between men and women, GAD (Gender and Development) was made.

Gender and development is an interdisciplinary field of research and applied study that implements a feminist approach to understanding and addressing the disparate impact that economic development and globalization have on people based upon their location, gender, class background, and other socio-political identities.  

In the eyes of God, we are all equal because he made us all equal from the very start.  We shall protect our own rights as women and love one another to gain peace.

Love our Home

"The aesthetic value of creation cannot be overlooked.  Our very contact with nature has a deep restorative power; contemplation of its magnificence imparts peace and serenity.  The Bible speaks again and again of the goodness and beauty of creation, which is called to glorify God.  Pope John Paul II said.

We cannot deny that nature provide everything that we need in order for us to live in this world.  But we are abusing it because of our own benefit not thinking about what will happen in the next generation.  We are slowly destroying God's beautiful creation if that so.

As a youth, we must do our best to protect our environment.  We must unite to bring back the beauty of our nature many years ago.  How clean, peaceful and beautiful it could be.  We could do simple things like proper waste disposal, planting trees, conserving water and electricity.

"Freedom consists not in doing what we like,  but in having the right to do what we ought."

Developing our Core Values Starts at Home

The theme for the National Values Month Celebration is, "Pamilyang Pilipino Patatagin: Susi sa Paghubog ng Kabataang Maka-Diyos, Makatao, Makakalikasan at Makabansa" that is true and are being taken in our hearts.

Our home is our first school and our parents are our first teacher.  Living in a home that is peace, comfortable, safe and has the love that can make each of your family members happy is what a young student or person need to develop his good values and morals.  These core values are needed for us to be contented and completely happy.

For us to develop our core values: Maka-Diyos, Makatao, Makakalikasan at Makabansa, we must start in our families to grow happy and healthy.

The United Nations is an international organization formed in 1945 to increase political and economic operation among its member countries.  It is also responsible for maintaining international peace and security, developing friendly relations among nations, achieving international cooperation and being a center for harmonizing the actions of nations.
