Happy Fiesta with a Safe and Secure Environment

-

     Fiesta’s are known as happy and colorful event on cities or communities around the world. A fiesta is something celebrated due to religious occasions. It is a joyful occasion in the Philippines. Delicious foods, parades and visitors come to experience the fiesta. However, because of the Covid-19, fiesta becomes dull due to less activities. I truly understand that they have to cancel some activities to lessen the spreading of Covid-19. 

 



    The Vigan City fiesta is held in honour of Saint Paul the Apostle. Saint Paul is Vigan City’s patron saint and it is celebrated on January 25 each year. On previous years, tourist come to Vigan City to experience and see street dancing, carnivals, art and food fairs. But because of the pandemic, these activities are canceled. For me, even if the activities are canceled we should still celebrate it inside our homes.

    Being safe and healthy is the most important right now. “Safety isn’t priceless, it’s expensive” Fiesta’s may be not as fun as it used to before, we must still acknowledge it. Let’s just hope and pray that one day we will celebrate fiesta as joyful and colorful. “At the end of the day, the goals are simple: safety and security” Happy fiesta Vigan!

      Philippines is now facing a pandemic. Philippines is in a crisis where the people and the government is not getting along. It is hard to recover from this impact the COVID-19 caused. It is not only the virus killing people but the poverty. In recovering a country, the people must work together. It may take a lot of time and hard work in resilient. People starts to recover themselves, then home, until it reaches the community. The Philippines can recover if the Filipino’s starts from themselves and stop ranting and blaming why the Philippines doesn’t have progress. In the end, we can make it through this pandemic caused. We just need to believe and have faith on each other. Let us work together toward a more resilient Philippines.

Quality Education Effective or Not?

      Quality education during COVID-19 pandemic is not effective. It doesn’t make us students productive and enhance our knowledge. Especially this modular class modules doesn’t have complete descriptions and instructions. Our modules doesn’t provide a complete and full descriptions or discussions. There are a lot of task and activities to answer that is questionable and confusing. We need to search some questions on the internet to answer the task. We, students feels like it’s not learning anymore, it is about passing. Academic freeze is not the solution regarding to this topic. The modules and learning activity sheets just needs more discussion part than task or activities. We can solve this and have the desired quality education if we students and teachers cooperate.

A Letter for DU30

  Dear Mr. President, The President of the Philippines, Rodrigo Duterte. Many Filipino hates him, especially now during this pandemic. The #OUSTDU30 was still trending on the internet. Being the president on a country that don’t follow the rules and all they do is rant and rally was really hard. Your own people are downing you. To our president, please stay strong and hold on to the people who believe on you. No president is perfect. Everyone makes mistakes, since we are humans. On this type of situation, the COVID-19 pandemic, please do better for our country. I believed we can be saved and have a better country. Work hard and do what you think is right with the voices of the Filipino’s. Do it for us and for the betterment of our country, Philippines. I’m not angry but I’m disappointed. There is still a chance that we can change this. We stand as one, we fight as one.
