    Our community, our home, and our responsibility to   keep it clean and green. This September, we'll celebrate   National Clean-Up Month, by working together, we'll   make a difference. Were not only gonna clean but also   raising awareness about disaster prevention and   environmental conservation.

    Here I am watering the plants because it helps maintain a greener, healthier environment, supporting the ecosystem and air quality.

 

    Here I am cutting grass because it keeps the surroundings neat, reduces pest habitats, and contributes to cleaner environment.

 

    Here we are cleaning the environment of our home to contribute to the National Clean-Up, fostering a sense of responsibility and promoting a healthy and sustainable community.

    Here I am picking trash to help reduce litter, prevents pollution, and protects wildlife from harmful waste.

    So, to summarize, this National Clean Up Month and this World Clean and Green Week remind us to start being watchful about our environment. By embracing clean-up initiatives, conserving resources, and taking-on sustainable practices, we can become better practitioners of stewardship toward Mother Nature. Let's get down to work, shall we?

My Journey and Insights From 1st Quarter

     The first quarter taught me about the most important principle of blogging: content/posts, and so important dates in internet history-from when it started to how it grew over time. I learned about Internet pioneers and also the Philippine pioneers.

    The hardest part of the course for me was memorizing everything on that internet timeline including the events and dates. It was hard to remember people's names and what they did to help create and grow the internet.

    To overcome these difficulties, I created simple notes and flashcards to help me remember the names and work that the internet pioneers did.

    From now on, I will continue practicing my blogging techniques, digging deeper into the things I learn about the history of the internet. I will make a schedule which consists of study work with important figures in order to better prepare myself with other resources such as videos and articles that might enable me to understand more and make learning easier.

National Teachers Month 2024: Together4Teachers

     As we celebrate National Teachers Month 2024 under the theme "Together4Teachers," we celebrate how these teachers make a difference in our society. Not only are they the pillars of our communities but have also committed themselves to encouraging young minds, to inspire curiosity, and to shape the future. Their commitment to student success and influence stretch way beyond the classroom and permeate every cog of our country's development. This month, let's come together to recognize and appreciate the hard work and dedication of teachers, without whom the power to build a better tomorrow will remain only in the next generation.

Philippines Against Disasters

McConnell, Paul (2013). Mirror. Philippines Typhoon - Mirror Online

    The Philippines a country that frequently faces natural disasters like flood, typhoons, earthquake, and landslide. These disasters causes a lot of destruction to homes, roads, and communities mostly in provinces. The reason of this is because the Philippines in the Pacific Ring of Fire. The warm ocean waters also fuel the intensity of these storms. Deforestation also, cutting down too many trees and poor land use can make floods and landslides worse. Because of these, the Philippines is often hit by intense disasters.

 

    The countrymen has responded to there natural calamities by applying the measures—safety— to remain safe. Early warning systems (EWS) have been developed by the government to notify the people in advance of a disaster. In addition, they build more strong roads and buildings that can stand during the disaster. Communities and schools are receiving emergency preparedness and response training. Reserve teams are also trained to respond quickly and help those affected by disasters.

     The Philippines still has a lot of difficulties in coping with natural calamities in spite of their efforts. It is challenging to construct enough robust infrastructure and provide resources for everyone due to lack of funds. It might be challenging to coordinate between many government entities, which slows down the response. Because they are hard to attain, remote places frequently receive assistance too late. Furthermore, it takes time to recover after a disaster, which causes extended periods of hardship in some areas.

What Makes You, You?

    How well do you know yourself? Wait, do you even know yourself? Knowing ourselves is important, because it is the foundation of your identity and key to understanding our desires and action. And also, to introduce yourself, to make friends, and all. Who are u? How are you as a student? A family?

I set my own goals, the goals that I can reach in order to achieve them, such as, achieving semi- high grades by being confident, I can somehow recite in my class for points. I also surround myself with positive people me. They encourage me, help me in building me in building my confidence, they boost it. Self-care is also a one way to help yourself.

Then, in the end you'll realize that you did it. You worked hard. Don't pressure yourself, be your own self. Start being confident in a positive way now.

Letter For Mr. President

    Here I am writing this letter expressing my thoughts about your governance. I respect you as a president, our president. A lot of people respect your presidency but here I am concerned and a bit angry about some of your decisions. A lot of promises have been broken, also a lot of your supporter heart have been broken too, mainly about your "20 peso/kilo rice" Now you are telling us that it is hard to propose it? Didn't you think first before promising? We all Filipinos want to see a REAL CHANGE, it’s been 2 years. I worry that the country's problems are getting worse and I feel let down by the lack of action.

 

Please Listen to the voice of your countrymen and take responsibility for the issues that our nation’s facing. We need a strong and honest leadership to guide us in the right path.

Sincerely,

Wilfranz
