Decided to have a clean up activity to avoid students of getting at risk because of the lack of respect to the environment that some students are doing too, throwing those food and candy wrappers around the school. To still have a clean environment we've decided to have clean up activity since we literally care about the cleanliness that the environment should have. 



Picking those harmful waste 

As you can see in the picture there is an umbrella that can harm a person physically and those tiny glass and cans that is thrown on the way towards in to the sea, it is essential to pick them all up so that we can protect ourselves, others and also our mother nature.

An Island with More Volcanoes than Towns

   In a world where climate change, natural disasters, and socio-economic shifts are becoming increasingly prevalent, the need for resilience has never been more critical. The word “resilience” has been thrown around to describe how the Filipinos are able to pick themselves up in the face of disaster.
Calamities abound in the country, with the ongoing pandemic and natural disasters. The Philippines, an archipelago located in the typhoon-prone country,The Philippines is no stranger to natural disasters, with an average of 20 typhoons and more hitting the our country each year. These frequent calamities often result in severe damage to infrastructure, loss of life, and economic setbacks. Yet, we citizens of the Philippines have shown an inspiring resilience in the face of adversity, standing as a testament to the human spirit's ability to overcome challenges.

   In a nation where resilience is not a choice but a way of life, Filipinos are known survivors of circumstances, a strong fighter in desperate situations. We manage to survive from disappointments, we emerge more strongly and determined to face the odds that come. One of the most outstanding characteristics of Filipinos is Resilience. Filipinos have exhibited incredible strength and determination.

Typhoons, for instance, are a recurring nightmare for many regions, but we the citizens have developed a deep-rooted culture of bayanihan, or communal unity, that enables us to weather the storm, both literally and metaphorically. Through this spirit of unity, we Filipinos often help each other prepare for, endure, and recover from disasters. We come together to provide shelter, food, and support to those in need, ensuring that no one is left behind. We keep on moving forward and even though we are suffering we still have time to smile because we know that we can all do it and know that we can all past it through our love and care for each other. Typhoons and Calamities come and go but still we remain standing. 

   In building a more resilient Philippines. First and foremost, investments in disaster risk reduction and preparedness are crucial. This involves improving early warning systems, constructing resilient infrastructure, and implementing comprehensive disaster management plans. It's essential that communities are educated about disaster risks and are equipped with the knowledge and resources to respond effectively. Furthermore, addressing the root causes of vulnerability is vital. Poverty and inequality can exacerbate the impact of disasters, so socio-economic programs aimed at poverty reduction can make a significant difference. Empowering local communities and individuals to become self-reliant during disasters is also key. This includes teaching basic first aid and survival skills, promoting sustainable farming and livelihoods, and encouraging the preservation of indigenous knowledge that has often served as a guide for generations.

   The Philippines has been a beacon of resilience in the face of recurring adversities. But the road towards a more resilient nation is an ongoing journey that demands collective action. Investments in disaster preparedness, addressing vulnerability, and adapting to climate change are all part of the solution. By coming together as a nation, and with the support of the international community, the Philippines can continue to demonstrate unwavering resilience and pave the way towards a more secure and sustainable future.

My Purpose in Life

   In the hustle and bustle of our daily lives, it's easy to feel lost or overwhelmed by the question, "What is my purpose in life?" This existential inquiry is one that has perplexed philosophers, poets, and seekers for centuries. 

While there's no one-size-fits-all answer. Discovering one's purpose in life is a profound journey that often unfolds over time. For me, this quest for purpose has been a continuous exploration of self-discovery and growth. It's about finding meaning in every experience, whether positive or challenging, and using those lessons to shape my path forward.
Reading books, listening to music, and watching documentaries that inspires me are one of the reason why i keep in finding my purpose in life. Also by identifying my skills help me to be more aware on what is my purpose in life. My purpose in life maybe rooted in making a positive impact on the world around me. I believe in contributing to the greater good, whether through acts of kindness, supporting causes that resonate with my values, or helping individuals in need. This purpose gives me a sense of fulfillment and drives me to strive for personal and societal betterment. Helping other's gives myself satisfaction by just seeing them smile and making them happy as much as I can be.  

     Furthermore, my purpose extends to personal growth and self-realization. I aim to continually evolve as an individual, honing my skills, nurturing my passions, and seeking out opportunities for self-improvement. By doing so, I not only enhance my own life but also become better equipped to make a meaningful difference in the lives of others. In essence, my purpose is an ongoing journey of self-discovery, service, and growth that guides me towards a more meaningful and fulfilling life. I always keep in mind that my purpose is unique like me, and it's a lifelong pursuit.
