Doing My Part

        As young as I am now, it is critical for me to understand the various concerns in our community so that I may contribute to the improvement and prevention of different issues. It is our responsibility as an individual to care for the things around us that are necessary for our survival. For instance, we must do our best to keep our surroundings green since plants and trees provide us with different necessities, such as food and clean, fresh air. Changes in our environment can be seen over time, and these should not be disregarded because little indicators might imply dangerous consequences if not addressed immediately. Hence, we must protect our environment at all costs in order for it to continuously provide us with our needs and for future generations to witness its beauty.

        Waste management is still an issue in many communities. Some people still throw their trash everywhere, clogging canals and making the area unsightly. This contributes to air pollution and soil and water contamination, which have an impact on the living things that inhabit these areas. Every individual must understand the importance of waste segregation in order to comply with proper waste management. Recycling must be an option before discarding recyclable goods such as paper, glass, and plastic bottles in order to reduce waste and pollution. Furthermore, using eco-friendly products and minimizing the use of plastic bags can be extremely beneficial to the environment. These are simple ways but have a big impact on the environment, especially if we continue to practice them and urge others to do the same.

        We must take action for the betterment of our future. Even in the midst of the pandemic, there are several ways for us to contribute that are simple and feasible. We, the youth, are the hope of the nation. Therefore, we must do our best to keep our surroundings clean and safe to live in. Taking care of the environment will not harm us in any way. What’s stopping you from caring for the environment?

A Time for Giving

        Our favorite time of year is nearing, and the pandemic is still present, limiting our ability to travel and meet our loved ones from various places. This will be our second time coping with the pandemic during the holiday season. Nonetheless, we Filipino Christians will not be deterred from celebrating the birth of our Savior, Jesus Christ. Christmas lights and trees can be seen as early as September. Every Filipino, especially children, can be seen beaming with delight as they await the arrival of Christmas to receive gifts from their family and godparents. This is the time when the family gets together to celebrate and bond while enjoying the feast that has been prepared. However, because the COVID-19 Pandemic has had such a great impact on our daily lives, we are unable to be with our families and friends who come from long distances.         Christmas is one of the most important events for Christians, and it should be valued and res...

In the first months of 2020, our learning was interrupted due to the rapid spread of the Covid-19. Of course, we students were upset by the news. Students had no idea when their schools would reopen. Despite the difficulties caused by the pandemic, the Philippine government did not use this as an excuse to halt the education of students. In the Philippines, education is crucial to a person’s life.         What we are experiencing as students today demonstrates the importance of education. Despite the ongoing pandemic, the Philippine government developed various approaches in order to continue the education of students. Distance learning has been introduced, which includes the use of technology, electronic devices, modules, and so on. Students were new to this approach, and some lacked the necessa...
