The Purpose of National Children's Month

  Before the Philippines started marking National Children's Month, "Children's Day" was already a popular holiday in many countries throughout the globe. The first step was a special service for children conducted by Reverend Dr. Charles Leonard in June 1857. He called it "Rose Day" at first, then "Flower Sunday," and finally "Children's Day." Turkey was the first country to declare this day a national holiday in 1920. However, it wasn't until 1925 that International Children's Day was formally established at the World Conference on Child Welfare in Geneva, Switzerland. Numerous communist and postcommunist countries adopted the International Children's Day on June 1, 1950, with Uruguay and Indi issuing a joint resolution in 1954. The National Youth Commission (N.Y.C.), the Council for the Welfare of Children (C.W.C.), and the Department of Social Welfare and Development (D.S.W.D.) were in charge of creating initiatives, s...

Locked Up

  I was in 7th grade when Covid-19 started to become a thing. We were all clueless, innocent, confused, and scared. Who would've thought that the 2 weeks of no classes became 2 years of not going to school? At first, I was okay with it because I knew for a fact that it was for our own safety.

I wasn't able to meet my friends nor my other relatives, because the risk of going out was very scary. Whenever I talked to them, facing my phone was quite sad, wishing that it was them in front of me. But still, I am thankful because without our modern technology I wouldn't be able to see them virtually.       With my cellphone as my companion, downloading and playing online games were my only escape. Because of online games, I was able to get close with my current friends. Playing with them was ...

I HAVE SURVIVED 1ST QUARTER!

  For the 2 years of not being able to go to school, as I entered our school for the very first time again in August, I felt something very exquisite inside me. Mixed emotions were felt, as the nostalgic feeling struck me. I realized that I was once a 7th grader walking and running around the hallways. And now that we have totally came back to school, I am now in the last year of my Junior Highschool. This is when reality hit me. After all those stressful modules and online classes we have gone through, I know that another obstacle is paved in my way for me to overcome.  On the first weeks of classes, being in a new environment made me feel nervous, because I wasn't personally familiar with my new classmates. But fortunately, I was able to adjust quickly because all of them were very approachable and friendly. In just a week, we were all able to share laughs and joy together. As we started our lessons, I have seen how dedicated our teachers are. Our lessons may be hard but wit...
