Ganap sa Xmas Holiday's

Image
  Christmas has always been my favorite holiday to be with our families and to celebrate Jesus Christ's birthday. There was a time during Christmas Eve when it was the first time we experienced brownout and it was such perfect timing while we were having a boodle fight. The power was out for a long period, during that time we played jenga blocks to kill boredom and it was fun, luckily the power went back on before midnight but we just greeted Christmas Eve with simple preparations because we celebrated Christmas during the daytime and played parlor games that we also got "pamasko" from our parents, grandparents, titos and titas.  December 27th was the day when Mama was born, her birthday. We planned to go out in the afternoon to have an early dinner outside and after dinner, we will be visiting the Onederland located in Vigan, but we went to see first our relatives who came home here in Sto. Domingo and I went straight to celebrate. The night was well spent as we enjoyed ...

REFLECTION

Image
 As we entered Quarter 2, we began learning how to code using HTML tags, covering various topics such as Basic HTML Structure, Text Formatting, Lists, and Links. However, I didn't attend classes regularly because I joined BP '24.  When I returned to school, I focused on catching up on the lessons I had missed. I worked on completing the coding activities and addressing challenges such as understanding nesting and closing tags, managing attributes, and maintaining proper structure. I also developed skills in coding, including creativity in designing and creating web pages, as well as critical thinking and problem-solving when I encountered issues with my code. In the future, my knowledge of coding can be used to develop web pages, enabling developers to craft captivating digital experiences etc.  As technology advances, HTML's influence will continue to shape the web, empowering innovators across industries.

Protecting The Unprotected: Philippines Law Against Violence

Image
 The Philippines, a resilient archipelago, sheds light on the troubling issue of violence against women. Each year, National Women's Month underscores the need for a safer and more equal society. At the heart of this movement is Republic Act (RA) 9262, also known as the Anti-Violence Against Women and Their Children (VAWC) Act of 2004. This pivotal law enhances protection for women and children, defending them against the severe impacts of abuse. Unfortunately, violence against women (VAW) continues to be a significant problem in the Philippines, affecting millions. According to the Philippine Statistics Authority (2022), one in four Filipino women faces physical, emotional, or sexual abuse. RA 9262 acts as a protective measure against various forms of abuse, including physical, sexual, psychological, and economic harm. Its provisions establish a safety net, offering immediate protection through court-issued orders. The law's strong position serves as a warning to perpetrators ...

The Resilience of The Filipino People

Image
 Climate change poses formidable challenges for the Philippines, a diverse archipelago particularly susceptible to natural disasters. As global temperatures rise, the country experiences a marked increase in the frequency and intensity of typhoons. These storms, which can uproot communities and devastate infrastructure, have become more unpredictable, complicating disaster preparedness and response efforts. Additionally, shifting weather patterns contribute to prolonged droughts and heavy rainfall, flooding, and landslides in various regions. The cumulative effects of these changes threaten food security, disrupt livelihoods, and exacerbate existing socio-economic inequalities, making it imperative for the nation to develop comprehensive strategies to mitigate and adapt to these pressing environmental issues. The Philippines is highly vulnerable to climate change due to greenhouse gas emissions from industry, transportation, and deforestation. These factors, along with land degrada...
