REFLECTION

During the first quarter, I learned alot of things especially about the internet. The parts and types of it. I learned how intelligent the internet is. It consists many knowledge about almost everything. What you get from books can also be seen in the internet too which is less hassle and easy to find. I also learned about blogging and got really interested to try vlogging. Blogging can help students in many different ways. Like it can help you enhance your writing, photographic, and videographic skills. It also gives many oppurtunities to us, students, to write/express our ideas about something. The challenges I encountered was, I lacked in inspiration in writing my articles. Writing can be really hard especially if you  are not inspired or if you do not know the subject. Because of that, i always convince myself now that I can do it and that I will end it properly. Moving on, I will apply what I learned this quarter in my daily life. I will study harder for me to get good grade

It is along the pacific ring of fire where active volcanoes can be seen. Philippines is also near the pacific ocean where most of the typhoons are originated. Because of these disasters we experience almost everyday, the resiliency of Filipinos to disasters can now be considered as the country's fame. Filipinos are tested by countless disasters. Some of them experienced losing their loved ones, properties, and something/someone important to their lives. Thousand people died in hunger during disasters. Some lost their husband, wife, their home, and innocent children, even their wealth. But as a Filipimo, no matter what kind of disasters we experienced, we still manage making ourlives happy. We can still smile, laugh, and move on. Because Filipinos never give up. The courage and hope make us survive. Filipinos will get up, may cry/

Wikang Filipino, gamitin mo tungo sa pagbabago.

Image
Ang wika  ang isa sa mga mahahalagang bagay sa mundong ginagalawan natin. Ito ang tumutulong upang tayo'y magkaisa at magkaintindihan. Ginagamit din ito tungo sa kapayapaan. "Ang Filipino ang wikang panlahat, ilaw at lakas sa tuwid na landas." Tuwing buwan ng Agosto taon-taon, ipinagdidiriwang natin ang buwan ng wika upang bigyang pugay ang pagkakaroon ng wikang pambansa na pinaburan ni Manuel L. Quezon noon. Ito din ang buwan kung saan nagbabalik tanaw tayo sa kahalagahan ng kulturang Pilipino.  Ang tema ngayong taon ay: "Filipino: wika ng saliksik" Ang interpretasyon ko sa temang ito ay dapat nating gamitin ang Wikang Filipino sa paghubog ng ating karunungan. Dahil mula pagkabata hangganh sa ating pagtandan, ito na ang ginagamit nating wika. Imbis na gumamit tayo ng mga wikang kano, mas mainam na gamitin na lamang ang sariling wika upang maibahagi din sa iba ang kagandahan ng wikang ito at yaman ng kulturang Pilipino. Wikang Filipino, dapat
