Change for the world

My life is changing.
The life that I've had,
It's changing forever,
But no need to be sad


All of us experience change in our lives. Change is the only one constant in our lives. There are changes that we look forward to and change that we fear. However, one thing is for sure. Things will not stay the same no matter how much we would like them to. When a life change occurs, we have two choices in how to respond. We can despair that a change has come and assumed that things will be worse, or we can look with excitement at the new possibilities for personal growth and change in self that the change presents.
Those who cannot change their minds cannot change anything. - George Bernard Shaw
You’ll never experience the best parts of life if you avoid things that are new or different.  Focus on the positive outcomes, and remember that you’re never stuck.

From one student to another, here are a few suggested ways to make a change:
1. Start your own project. Sometimes, it’s as simple as that; if you see something you want to change, do something about it! 
2. Join an existing project. If you are interested in making a specific change, it’s possible that others may be too. 
3. Make personal changes. Explicitly working on a project isn’t the only way to make a change; even small personal lifestyle changes can add up. 
4. Research to learn. When you want to make the world a better place, it’s important to learn about the world itself and the problems it faces. 
5. Empower others and spread the word. To expand your reach, you need to build awareness about your cause.

There are a lot of ways to make a change in the world. What will you do?

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...

How to be a Better Version of Yourself

Today is not just another “today” but the first of the clean pages of a whole year waiting for what we will write into our lives and what greatness we’ll pull from within. -Tabitha Blue New Year is the time or day at which a new calendar year begins and the calendar's year count increments by one. This is also the time which we make our new year's resolutions and we tend to improve ourselves. We tend to change our doings and not to do again the mistakes that we did in the other year. But frankly speaking, we fail to do the resolutions that we had made. We always return to the things that we used to be that became the reason why we do things that are wrong. "A journey of a thousand miles must begin with a single step." -Chinese Proverb To start your new year, think positive first. You should always start a day with positive thinking. A positive attitude helps you cope more easily with the daily affairs of life. It brings optimism into your life and makes it eas...
