Reflection (First Quarter)

         This first quarter, I have learned about the history of the Internet and there were so many things that added to my knowledge. The things that caught my attention are: when the term internet is born it was in 1973 and the fathers of the internet and they were Vinton Cerf and Bob Khan. And I have also learned the Architects of the internet, the Philippine pioneers and the software pioneers. And I also learned all about blogs; the type of blogs, the advantages of it, different blog search engines, and also the metrics of it.

            I also experienced challenges and the one that I encountered is the making of articles. For me, I am not good in making Essays and it is hard for me. It’s hard for me to think what will I write next and it takes me many minutes to think and if I am not contented on what I have thought, another minute again to think a new. And frankly saying and sorry to say that I am lazy to make many essays and also writing a little bit lengthy essay is tiring for me. So far, that is the only challenge that I encountered.

            In order for me to overcome this challenge, I thought this as a training for me to write better essays and to put efforts on it. I learned how to make good articles and I also read many articles to get some other styles in writing. And this pushed me to become a good writer because this activity refines my writing skills, it got me into the habit of improving my writing skills and style. This activity also exercises my mind and keeps my memory power in good condition. It trained me to research better information about my articles and it trained me to read more articles. This activity also let me express myself, it let me voice my ideas, my thoughts and my feelings about the certain article and through this activity it lets me share my knowledge to my readers.

            Moving on, I will continue to make blogs to interact with other people and share my ideas with them. It will also serves as a training for me to speak eloquently in front other people and it will also train me to be confident in speaking to other people. I thought making blogs is very hard but if you put attention to it and you put efforts on it, it will not be very hard as you expected before.

Reflection (Second Quarter)

    Another quarter has passed, and another new knowledge that have been gained. This second quarter, students are ready and hoping that new lessons will be added to their knowledge and exciting activities that they will do again. And I was not disappointed because this second quarter I have learned all about internet access and the HTML.            The lessons of this quarter is easy for me to understand because I was super interested in it. I may have encountered probems but I easily coped up with it and went on. At the first lesson I did not understand it at first but I thrived to learn and I asked my classmates what's all about the lesson and I understood it easily. And for the basic HTML it was easy for me and I love coding. It easily registered in my mind and didn't even have to memorize or review it because there's a trick about it.             Moving on, I will keep what I am doing because it's a good...

Philippines: A Strong Nation

        "Resilience is the ability to recover from setbacks, adapt well to change and keep going or choose to give up in the face of adversity, so we engage stronger, wiser and more able." from The Oasis School of Human Relations. The word resilience comes from the Latin word 'resalire' which means "springing back". When the problems and adversities take your life, you instantly cope up and rise again.      We Filipinos are resilient "hindi tayo natitinag". Instances like when we are hit by a typhoon, we easily recover from it, we build raft if the water is too high, or we stock up foods to eat in the middle of the storm. When our houses are destroyed, we immediately clean the debris, we collect scraps that can help fix our houses, and start again. We always stay positive and Fel Cadiz, a Rare program manager in the Philippines, "The Filipino spirit is resilient and remains strong. As they say, the sun shines bright after the storm p...
