Inborn Rights

     In this month of November, with the theme, “Karapatang Pambata: Patuloy na Pahalagahan at Gampanan tungo sa Magandang Kinabukasan,” this year’s celebration of the NCM is made extra special as it coincides with the 30th Anniversary of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UN CRC).

     It sets out the rights that must be realized for every child – the rights to survival, development, protection, and participation. It offers a vision of the child as an individual and as a member of a family and community, with rights and responsibilities appropriate to his or her age and stage of development. Despite Filipino children and their families' challenges in daily living compromising their human rights and benefits, this year’s celebration aims to celebrate the gains and successes of the country in promoting and protecting the children. Further, the theme is also crafted to intensify the public’s awareness and remind all sectors of the community and society to be responsible in raising-up the Filipino child to become a well-rounded person.
     Every child has the right to be born well. Every child has the right to play and enjoy their youth. Every child has the right to access what they need to have a good life. Every child has the right to be protected from danger.

My Dream, My Future

Image
        Every person in this world does have a dream or an ambition which one wants to fulfill during his / her life. This very dream encourages you to do better and better and move towards your goal. Not everything you think of can be your dream. Some things are just a part of the fascination you grow up with during your childhood.        However, your dream plays an important role in your life. My dreams are what keep me going; they are an object for me to strive for. I will obtain that object one day. Every day I like to take some time aside from my responsibilities to think about my dreams and all the goals I want to achieve. Only having a dream won’t help, I also need to work towards the achievement of my dream.     Thinking only about the career and success with the little amount of fear might not offer you complete happiness later. It is good to become serious about your career, but you should also try to overcome any fe...

I DID!

        Everything lasts. But there is a beauty in every ending. You can gain, you can learn. Lessons you learned are ready to be practiced. Another journey has ended and it's the start of a new journey with harder and tougher challenges. We just got into our destination. Grade 10, it was a nice ride.       I am so grateful to learn new things about Photoshop. In our section, we are truly enjoying, we are having fun gaining new knowledge in our subject ICT 10. But, we can't deny the fact that we are struggling sometimes in editing pictures. Challenges goes harder and harder when you go farther. During fourth grading period, I got some challenges. First is self-doubt and how can I managed it. So, to lighten my mind and soul, I motivated myself by the saying "If others can, I can do it also". I made it! I just have to gain confidence in order to proceed. Another challenge is that I easily lost my focus especially when my phone is just p...

Vigan City Fiesta Celebration

Image
          The Vigan City Fiesta is held in honor of St. Paul the Apostle, the city’s patron saint, on 25 January each year. Locals and tourists gather to experience and see the street dancing, carnivals, food fairs, and arts and crafts, adding to the attraction of this UNESCO World Heritage City.           Participants from the different neighboring provinces in the northern region are also sent to compete in the various games and activities, particularly the street dancing competition. Within the Vigan City Fiesta days, the Longganisa Festival is also celebrated. The city has a longganisa-themed parade and at one time attempted to set a record for having the longest longganisa ever made. Biguenos attribute this to the fact that the making of Vigan longganisa is a centuries-old tradition of the local makers and all if not most of the ingredients used in making the native sausage is sourced from Vigan. Vigan’s garlic and sugarcane v...
