Resiliency is not always a good thing

Filipinos are known for being resilient. After calamities hit the Philippines, they still manage to smile. It is very rare to see someone smiling in the middle of the flood to wave to the camera, how hard life is but still smile. I saw how fast they recover on situations like those. It's been a good thing for the resiliency of Filipinos but I am afraid that they will just pass what happened and stay at it is. According to Shakira Sison, "The problem with our resilience is the speed by which we transform trauma into acceptance. Instead of solving problems, we simply cope or wait for the problem to pass." We are showing that we can't do anything about it. Is it really true? Why not making a goal to overcome it? Be strong enough to gamble in order to make things to the right path. You may fail, you can change strategies but never your goal. Be positive in a way that we think we can do it. Have determination. Problems may pass but if you do nothing, it will always re

First Quarter ICT Experience

From the short meetings we had in our Grade 10 ICT, I've learned a lot. From the history of internet, blogs to the techniques in searching.We also made our own blog and articles. Also, the difference between search engines and web browsers and techniques in searching that I didn't even thought it would work. I also encounter many website that I didn't even give importance to but now it is a big help. Before, I want to have a lesson which doesn't need to memorize but to understand it by applying on your own. And now, I'm a Grade 10 student, I thought it was that easy. Hard in the sense that I am not used to make articles because I am bad at grammars and my vocabularies are not that widen that I would ask others to translate the words for me.There are many requirements given and I have lack of time to do it since I am not that aware about the issues and understand well the themes. I've learn to be confident to know and improve my imperfections. By posting my a

Wika para sa Pagkakaisa

Sa panahon ngayon, nahuhumaling na ang mga tao sa makabagong teknolohiya kung kaya’t naging laganap na ang paggamit ng unibersal na wika na nagiging batayan sa mundong ginagalawan. Nakakalimutan na natin tangkilikin ang sariling atin. Kung tutuusin ay hindi pa natin lubos na kilala ang ating wika sa kadahilanang wika ng mga mananakop ang madalas nating gamit ng hindi natin nalalaman. Ngayong Agosto, pinagdiriwang na naman natin ang Buwan ng Wika na ang tema ay “Wikang Filipino: Wika ng Saliksik”. Nangangahulugang ang ating wika ang ating ginagamit para tumuklas ng mga bagay-bagay. Marami ang hindi nagkakaintindihan dahil sa iba’t ibang wika na ating ginagamit tulad na lamang ng Ingles. May mga malalalim na salita sa ating mga nababasa at napapanood ngunit hindi natin lubos nauunawaan. Malaking bahagi ang pakikipagkapwa sa ating mga tao at kapag tayo’y nagbabahagi ng ating nalalaman, minsa’y hindi natin naipahahayag ang gusto nating iparating sa kanila kung kaya’t gamitin ang wika
