Mothers Love

Mother's Day is a special occasion celebrated around the world, but in the Philippines, it holds even more significance. It's a time to honor not only our mothers but also the important women in our lives, like our titas (aunts), who play a crucial role in shaping who we are.

In Filipino culture, mothers are often seen as heroes. They are the ones who work tirelessly to provide for their families, sacrificing their own needs for the sake of their children. Whether it's cooking delicious meals, cleaning the house, or offering words of wisdom and encouragement, mothers are always there to support and guide us.

On Mother's Day, Filipinos show their appreciation for their mothers and titas in various ways. Some families gather for a special meal, either cooking at home or dining out at a favorite restaurant. It's a time for families to bond and create cherished memories together.

Others may choose to give gifts to their mothers and titas as a token of gratitude. These gifts can range from flowers and chocolates to handmade cards and personalized items. It's not about the cost of the gift but the thought and love behind it that truly matter.

Beyond material gifts, many Filipinos express their love and appreciation through acts of service. This could mean helping out with household chores, running errands, or simply spending quality time together. It's these small gestures of kindness that make Mother's Day truly meaningful.

Ultimately, Mother's Day in the Filipino tradition is about honoring the incredible women who have shaped our lives. Whether it's our mothers, titas, or other mother figures, they deserve to be celebrated not just on this special day but every day. They are our heroes, our role models, and our sources of unconditional love and support. Let's make sure they know just how much they mean to

us, not just on Mother's Day, but always.

It Starts With Me: Making a Difference in the World

Wanting to change the world is a big idea, but sometimes it can feel overwhelming. We all have dreams of making a difference, but where do we start? How do we turn those dreams into reality?
Firstly, it's essential to remember that c
hange begins with ourselves. Before we can change the world, we must start by changing our own attitudes and behaviors. This means being kind, compassionate, and respectful to others. Small acts of kindness can have a ripple effect, spreading positivity and inspiring others to do the same.

Secondly, we can make a difference by getting involved in our local communities. Whether it's volunteering at a soup kitchen, cleaning up a park, or participating in a neighborhood watch program, there are countless ways to contribute to the well-being of our communities. By working together with our neighbors, we can create positive change right where we live.

Thirdly, we can use our voices to advocate for causes we believe in. Whether it's through writing letters to our elected officials, signing petitions, or participating in peaceful protests, we have the power to influence change on a larger scale. By raising awareness about important issues, we can inspire others to join us in our efforts.

Lastly, we can make a difference by being mindful of our impact on the planet. From reducing our carbon footprint to recycling and conserving resources, there are many ways to live more sustainably. By taking care of the environment, we can help ensure a brighter future for generations to come.

In conclusion, changing the world may seem like a daunting task, but it all starts with small steps. By being kind, getting involved in our communities, advocating for causes we believe in, and living sustainably, we can make a positive impact on the world around us. Remember, it starts with me, it starts with you, it starts with all of us working together to create a better world.

Honoring Filipino Heroes of World War II

Every April 9th, Filipinos across the nation gather to commemorate Araw ng Kagitingan, also known as the Day of Valor. It's a special day where we remember the bravery and sacrifices of our Filipino fighters during World War II. But why do we celebrate this day?

During World War II, the Philippines faced a difficult time. The country was under Japanese occupation, and many Filipinos fought bravely to defend our land and freedom. On April 9, 1942, the Fall of Bataan happened. It was a dark time for our nation as Filipino and American soldiers, despite being outnumbered and outgunned, fought courageously against the Japanese forces. Though they eventually surrendered after months of fighting, their bravery and resilience became a symbol of our nation's strength.

Araw ng Kagitingan reminds us of the sacrifices made by our ancestors. Many Filipino soldiers endured hardships, including hunger, sickness, and even death, to fight for our country's freedom. Their determination to defend our homeland and protect our people inspires us to this day.


This day is also a reminder of the importance of unity and patriotism. Despite facing overwhelming odds, Filipino soldiers stood together with their American allies, showing the world the strength of our solidarity and determination.


Today, as we commemorate Araw ng Kagitingan, let us honor the memory of our Filipino heroes. Let us remember their bravery, sacrifices, and unwavering dedication to our country. Their legacy lives on in the hearts of every Filipino, reminding us to always strive for peace, freedom, and justice.

CBR Experience

Embarking on community-based research was a journey I never expected to take, but one that profoundly shaped my understanding of collaboration and dedication. Our project began with a simple idea: to make a positive impact in our municipality. Little did I know, it would lead to a journey of teamwork, creativity, and heartfelt dedication.

Grouped by municipality, we came together with a shared purpose. Each member brought their unique strengths and perspectives to the table. As we delved into our tasks, HTML tags became our tools of choice, allowing us to craft a web design that would effectively communicate our findings and message.

Collaboration was at the heart of our endeavor. Through countless discussions, brainstorming sessions, and late-night coding marathons, we worked tirelessly to bring our vision to life. Every line of code was a testament to our collective effort and commitment to excellence.

But beyond the technical aspects, what truly fueled our drive was the desire to impress Ma'am Vera Cruz. Her unwavering support and guidance served as a beacon of inspiration for us all. We poured our hearts into our work, striving to make it not just good, but exceptional in her eyes.

There were challenges along the way, moments of frustration and doubt. Yet, with each hurdle we faced, we emerged stronger and more united. The sense of camaraderie that blossomed within our group was invaluable, reminding us that together, we could overcome any obstacle.

As our project nears completion, I look back on this journey with a profound sense of gratitude and pride. What began as a simple task evolved into a testament to the power of collaboration and dedication. Through our shared efforts, we've not only created something impactful for our community but also forged lifelong bonds and memories that will endure far beyond the confines of our research project.

In the end, it wasn't just about the HTML tags or the final product. It was about the journey we undertook together, the lessons we learned, and the friendships we formed along the way. And for that, I am truly grateful.

REFLECTION QUARTER 3

 In this past quarter, I've found myself learning a great deal about HTML tags. It's been an eye-opening experience diving deeper into this fundamental language of the web. With the guidance of our practice teacher in ICT, we've delved into various HTML tags, uncovering their uses and functionalities. It's been quite enlightening to understand how these tags work together to structure and format content on web pages.

Furthermore, in our sessions with our teacher, we've had the opportunity to discuss and explore additional HTML tags beyond the basics. Each new tag introduced has added another layer to my understanding, expanding my toolkit for web development.

On another note, outside of ICT class, my Ma'am has been leading discussions on Community-Based Research (CBR). Recently, we had a CBR project focused on our municipality of Bantay. This hands-on experience allowed us to engage with our local community, gaining insights and understanding of real-world issues.

Moving forward, we're tasked with conducting our research, each focusing on different aspects of our community. It's an exciting opportunity to apply what we've learned, not just in terms of HTML, but also in conducting meaningful research that can have a positive impact.

One particularly interesting aspect of this quarter has been the culmination of our learning - the creation of our own research web design. Bringing together our newfound knowledge of HTML and our research findings, we'll be able to showcase our work in an interactive and accessible way.

Overall, this quarter has been incredibly rewarding. I've learned a lot, not only about HTML and web design but also about the practical application of research in real-world contexts. I'm looking forward to putting all of this newfound knowledge into practice as we move forward with our projects.
