Think Before You Click

     Tuwing buwan ng Nobyembre, ipinagdiriwang natin ang "Filipino Values Month." Ito ay ipinagdiriwang taon-taon. Ito ay ipinagdiriwang upang ipalala at imulat sa atin ang mga pagpapahalaga sa ating buhay. Ang tema sa taong ngayon ay, "Mapanuring Paggamit ng Gadget: Tungo sa Mapagkalingang Ugnayan sa Pamilya at Kapwa." Ang mga gadgets na ito ay palagi nating ginagamit, araw-araw at halos minu-minuto.

     Napakalaking papel ang ginagampanan ng mga gadgets at teknolohiya sa pang-araw-araw na pamumuhay natin. Nakakatuwang ispin na napapagaan at napapadali ang mga gawain ng tao dahil sa mga ito. Makikita talaga ang pag-unlad ng teknolohiya at pagbabago. Ngunit may masama ring epekto ang mga ito kapag ginamit ito sa maling paraan. May mga pag-aaral ding nagsasabi na nagiging sanhi ang mga ito ng pagbabago sa pag-uugali at paglaganap ng mga ilang sakit. Mahalaga ang mapanuring paggamit ng gadgets. Ang mga gadgets ang tulay o daluyan ng maganda at mapagkalingang ugnayan sa pamilya at gadget. Dapat nating alamin kung tama ba o mali ang ating paggamit sa mga gadgets. Nakabubuti ba ang gagawin ko sa aking sarili at sa aking kapwa?
     Kaya dapat mapanuri tayo sa paggamit ng mga gadgets. Ang mga gadgets ay may mga mabuting epekto at meron din namang masamang epekto. Dapat nating pag-isipan mabuti ang bawat hakbang at gagawin kung ito ba ay tama o hindi. Ika nga nila sa Ingles, "Think before you click!"

Reading is the Key to Success

     "Books are the quietest and most constant of friends; they are the most accessible and wisest of counselors, and the most patient of teachers" - Charles W. Elio.

     This month we are celebrating the English month with the theme, "Pagbasa: Susi sa Magandang Kinabukasan." This theme focuses on reading. Reading is fundamental to functioning in today's society. It is a vital skill in finding a good job. There are reports and memos which must be read and responded to. Poor reading skills increases the amount of time it takes to absorb and react in the workplace. Reading is very important because it develops the mind. Understanding the written word is one way the mind grows in its ability.

     A child's reading skills are important to their success in school as they will allow them to access the breadth of the curriculum and improve their communication and language skills. Reading can be a fun, wonderful and imaginative time for children, which opens doors to all kinds of new worlds for them.

     "The pen is mightier than the sword." Ideas written down have changed the destiny of men and nations for better or worse. We need to read and research to build on the good ideas and expose the bad ideas before they bring devastation and destruction. By reading, we can be armed in this never-ending, life-and-death struggle.

     Reading is very important. Truly that reading is the key for a better future. The fact of the power of written ideas communicated through reading is a foundational reason why some governments oppose free and honest communication. The more we read, the more we are educated and the more we discover new things. So, drop everything and read.

Second Grading Reflection

     This grading has been a remarkable and amazing grading. Many challenges came and we surpassed them. This grading was amazing and I have enjoyed more. I enjoyed this second grading with my classmates. In the subject TLE, I have learn many concepts and ideas.

     Many concepts were taught to us. One of the concepts I knew is the internet access. In the internet access, it is divided into two. Now, all of us are bloggers. These are the Local Area Network (LAN) and Wireless Broadband Access. Next is creating our own web design. And also creating html for the web design. And also, we continued to publish more articles. The challenge is that I am slow in typing. And also, I haven't finished the exercises. Through the help of our teacher in TLE, Mrs. Vera Cruz I was able to surpass these challenges. And to my fellow classmates for teaching me the right thing to do and on what to do.

     I will continue to post in my blog account. I will continue to become a blogger. I will also continue to have the references below my article. I will apply all the concepts our teacher had taught. I will continue to make html for our own web design. This grading has been an amazing and good journey.

Building a World of Universal Rights and Dignity

     United Nations was founded on October 24, 1945. This month of October, the United Nations Month is celebrated. The theme for this month is "Coming together with those furthest behind build an inclusive world of universal rights and dignity." The headquarters of the United Nations is in New York City, New York. The President for UN today is Maria Fernanda Espinosa.

     The commemoration of the International Day for the Eradication of Poverty will take place on October 17, 2018. This year marks the 70th anniversary of the proclamation of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. It is important to recall the fundamental connection between extreme poverty and human rights. The International Day for the Eradication can strongly complement such initiatives. The United Nations aims to eradicate and end poverty around the world. It also aims to give the rights of every person. Nowadays, the rights of a person is not given.

     The creation of United Nations is a good way to help every country in the world. To help each other and build strong bonds and connections. I hope that the United Nations will surely end poverty. And also to give every person their rights. Happy United Nations Month!

Filipinos: Strong and Happy

     Resilience is the ability to become strong, healthy, or successful again after something bad happens. The Philippines is situated in the Pacific Ring of Fire. As expected, many natural disasters like earthquakes are experienced. It is also beside the Pacific Ocean where most of the typhoons were formed there. Because of those disasters, Filipinos become resilient. But, does being a resilient a good trait or characteristic Filipinos should have?

     Despite the staggering impact from Typhoon Yolanda in the Philippines, especially Tacloban, in November 2013 and the 7.2 magnitude Bohol Earthquake just weeks before that, the country managed to sustain its economic momentum as its Growth Domestic Product (GDP) finished the year up by a rate of 7.2%. Filipinos have repeatedly been touted as reilient, ever happy, and even bulletproof. Even in the poorest typhoon-hit areas, it only takes a day or two for people to start rebuilding their homes. We Filipinos want to turn the negative into a positive all at once. This is a wonderful trait to have, to be self-reliant and to be a positive thinker. Independence and self-reliance are all fine and good, except that Filipinos know how much we pay our taxes and we know where that money really goes. The good part is we make our way and even earn a living.

     Being resilient is a trait one must have. The resiliency of Filipinos is a trait that we are very proud of. We always smile even during and after a disaster. No one can pull us down. We are Filipinos. We smile even our toughest problems. We smile no matter what happens. Proud to be a Filipino!
