Journey of Elpidio Quirino

Image
Elpidio Quirino, I've heard some stories about him before. Though I don't think I can give the best insight about him, I'll try to write what I know about what he did. May not be my best post but I'll try my best. He was a political leader and the second president of the independent Republic of the Philippines. He obtained a law degree from the University of the Philippines, near Manila and has since been practicing the law and was elected as member of the Philippine House of Representatives. He was a member of the Philippine independence mission to Washington, DC, which was led by Manuel Quezon, which secured the passage in Congress of the Tydings McDuffie Act. Served as secretary after World War II and vice president under the first president of the Philippines. President Quirino's government was confronted with a significant challenge: the Hukbalahap, a communist-led insurgency. The Communists gradually seized control of the group's leadership. When Quirino...

National Children's Month

Image
National Children's Month is a great way to celebrate the happiness and joy of children for their optimism and energy. Unfortunately, though, some adults may not treat the children right as there are some parents that neglect and abuse their children, some children also get exploited from disgusting predators for their own selfish pleasure. Thankfully, the government has implemented laws that could ensure the safety of the young. There are laws OSAEC and CSAEM that strengthen other existing laws that make stricter measures to protect the children from online harm that create any depictions of abuse. This law works with the Anti-Child Pornography Act of 2009 (R.A. No. 9775) and the Special Protection of Children Against Abuse, Exploitation, and Discrimination Act (R.A. No. 7610) to make sure that international treaties like the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child and other child protection protocols are followed. Even other organizations like Save the Children also ...

But for what I've learned this quarter, I only learned some lessons from my various subjects. They are not anything crazy just some lessons that I've managed to understand and reviewed.

My Teachers are my Heroes

Image
 I respect all the teachers at school for making our education possible. I simply can't thank them enough for all the studies that have helped me and my classmates in living, they truly have given all their time in teaching us new things that could help us progress in life. I thank them respectfully and I have even given the Sir Pajarillo a letter, simply because he managed to help me understand a little bit of Filipino and is a kind man. This goes for all the other teachers who have helped me understand the lesson and clarified my questions about it so that I may understand more. Teachers are one of the most important people in the world. As they are the ones who taught many people on how to do many things in order for them to get jobs, even the teachers themselves were students from their time and had mentors that taught them well. So, I am glad teachers and mentors exist to guide to a better world. References: 1st Pic: ph.pinterest.com/pin/my-teacher-my-hero-apple-gift--14650779...

 Insight on the 2025 National Science Month Celebration Date: September 26, 2025 Each September, Filipinos celebrate National Science Club Month by exploring the theme set by DepEd and partner agencies. For 2025, the proclamation “Harnessing the Unknown: Powering the Future through Science and Innovation” was issued under Proclamation No. 264, mandating schools to spark curiosity and innovation among learners. This theme urges us to view the unexplored—whether novel materials, untested theories, or emerging technologies—as sources of solutions that can shape our tomorrow. To bring this theme to life, DepEd’s Advisory 128, s. 2025 encourages schools nationwide to host activities such as quiz bees, sci-spelling contests, investigatory project showcases, and eco-innovation challenges. These events sharpen critical thinking and teamwork, showing students how to apply scientific methods to real-world problems—from reducing plastic waste to designing low-cost water filters.

The Filipino Spirit: Resilience in the Face of Adversity

Image
The Philippines, an archipelago of over 7,000 islands, is no stranger to nature’s fury. From typhoons and floods to droughts and rising sea levels, climate change has become an undeniable force reshaping the lives and livelihoods of millions of Filipinos. Despite these challenges, Filipinos continue to demonstrate extraordinary resilience. Communities have embraced disaster preparedness, early warning systems, and sustainable practices. The government has adopted frameworks like the National Climate Risk Management Framework and the National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Plan (2020–2030) to strengthen institutional and community resilience. Efforts to promote a green and blue economy, rehabilitate ecosystems, and transition to low-carbon development are underway. These initiatives aim to create jobs, protect natural resources, and ensure long-term sustainability. Climate change is not just an environmental issue—it’s a social, economic, and moral one. The Philippines stands at...
