NEW YEAR, NEW ME

    Many challenges have been faced last 2020. Many things changed, including people. Many things were lost, yet we also gained some. A new year they say marks a new era, new chapter, new life.

    In our family, all of our relatives who live away from us always come home to celebrate New Year with us. Unfortunately, it’s impossible last year due to the pandemic. With that said, let’s just say that this year’s new year celebration is not that pleasant. The fact that we can’t do that much about it makes it even more frustrating.
 
    New Year passed with me just sleeping in my cold bed. It felt like a normal one despite it being a special day. Nothing really changed with me. I’m still the same as last year, except for the fact that I’m sadder this year, which is extremely odd for I’m jolly most of the time.
 
    Enough with sad stuff! One thing I can (not so) proudly say that changed is that, I started buying clothes and planned to change my style. My go-to style is always a simple t-shirt, some shorts or pants, then my signature gray jacket. With the money I got last Christmas and New Year, I invested my money in clothes and I’m glad that they fit well with me which indicates that my money is well-spent.

    But despite my goal of improving my style, of course, I won't forget my old self. I still buy long sleeves and oversized is my favorite. No matter what’s ahead, one thing’s for sure this year. MY CLOTHING STYLE WILL CHANGE.

  Dear   Mr. President,           I don’t watch the news often, but every time that I do, I can always see you and information about what you did. I just can’t help but admire you and I wonder if someday, I can also do something for our country like what you’re currently doing.             I honestly don’t have any complaints about you, because all you want is what’s best for our country. When I was young and became slightly aware of how the Philippine government is like, I didn’t know what it feels to have a good president. But a few years later, you came and I became gradually enlightened on what a good president is like. I have watched a video of you, where an American reporter asked you about extrajudicial killing. I was amazed at how you handled that and how you brought the topic of the US killing black people for odd reasons. That video of you made me think you’re the  GOAT , Greatest Of All Time....

Do, Re, Me! Yes, It's Me!

         She is a loud type of person. No! She is quiet when she is with us. She is like this. No, she is like that! People see and know me differently. I act in different ways depending on who I am with. But just like what they say, every person is different, and that makes them unique. This is who I am, and I will be me, for being who you are is like one of the greatest things that you could give to yourself.      I am just a simple girl from the municipality of Caoayan, Ilocos Sur. Born in an average family, with just enough wealth to survive on and also the only child. I think that is the reason why I act like this. I became an ambivert, or so I thought, for I have not really taken the test yet. My conclusion is that I became like this because I was often alone and was often inside our house during my childhood, but whenever the situation allows it, my friends would come to my house and play with me, or I will go to theirs to play with them.

For The Better Us, For The Better Philippines

No one in this world can ever be ready when it comes to disasters, for they come unexpectedly. There's terrorism, natural disasters, and the virus outbreak that the world is currently facing. They lead to huge financial loss and destructive effects on humanity, thus causing the nation to face difficulties in securing everyone's safety. One of the things that we can do for our country to be more resilient is to invest in enhancing its resilience.  Planning before the disaster happens is a must, for it is the most important among the preparation procedures. Our government must be capable of doing this, for a resilient country knows how to plan, respond to the situation well, and must be able to prepare a solution afterward.  However, it doesn't mean that the government is the only one who needs to make a move. It takes every citizen of the country to execute such a plan. Their obedience and full cooperation in the following guidelines are needed for us to be well prepared dur...
