Resilience in the Philippines

                                                 Resilience in the Philippines





Filipinos are well-known to be resilient when calamities come. The people of this country will never hesitate to show their smiles no matter how difficult life is. We do this in order to lessen the stress caused by the calamities. Because we are great full for being alive even thou our 'ari-arians' are being destroyed because we cherish our lives way more than any physical objects. That is why we stay positive everytime.




Because of our resilience, we were capable enough to survive from the calamities that might kill us. We considered the flood as our temporary swimming pool. We choose to enjoy it rather than to be stressed from the the effects of it. When I was a Child, i used to shower in the rain and play with my friends, to be honest it was fun! But our fun ended when our parents starts to call out our names and scold us.




We became immune to diseases due to being always the victim of calamities such as typhoons and floods. We saw the bright side of it and made strategies and preparations to avoid further damage to our community and to survive the harsh reality of life with a smile.

Who Am I

                                                              Who am I    I am Jiro Yuri L. Altares from Mindoro Vigan City with the ambition of being a skilled architect. Since I was a child, I had the talent to draw at a early age. I was a joyous kid before, I loved both my parents with lots of affection. I was adored by my grandma and she would always spoil me before, that's why I thought that I should do my best so that she would spoil me more, I was so glad before, I really was.  I am currently 14 years old now, life's been harsh lately, there's too much to do that I had no time for my personal needs, I rarely draw nowadays and was stressed all the time, I thought that I was not good enough, I thought that I had lost it all, I thought that I lost my ability to draw, a lot of things changed since then, I changed both physically and mentally, I then realized I was not the same person as I was before. I changed a lot they say however the truth is that a lot changed me.

Celebrating the Environmental Month

Image
Our environment is very beautiful, it is filled with plants and animals. In every morning, I inhale the fresh air from the fields with a cup of warm coffee beside me, while watching the sun rise from its slumber. This type of scenery always relieves the stress from the previous days and I always look forward to see it everyday. If we were to continue on being ignorant towards the possible effects of being irresponsible in managing our environment, we may lost everything including our own future. The green fields will be filled with unnecessary infrastructures such as smoky factories, every animal known to man will become extinct and the world will no longer be the same way it was before. In order to preserve our environment for the future generations, we must learn how to become responsible in taking care of our environment because our whole existence depends on it. In doing our household chores, I was able to contribute to our community by doing a simple task in disposing the fallen l

My Experience and Accomplishments for the First Quarter of ICT

Image
I learned a lot during my time in our ICT period, I was able to learn how to create and manage a blog account and publish a blogpost online. It was a fun experience since I was able to share my insights towards my teacher and classmates. I also learned about the timeline of the internet which is very amusing to discover. I thought that this quarter was a good start to me because I manage to pass all my requirements on time and had a decent score in our quiz and activities. I hope that I can achieve a decent grade this quarter so that I can fulfill their expectations in me and so that my efforts will be justified. When I was creating a blogpost, my number one problem is the slow signal which decreases the performance output of my laptop when I was doing it at home. I also had a problem in citing trustworthy sources since some are not accurate to what I am finding and will show unnecessary information. And my last problem is the deadline of the activities which I will have a hard time fi
