A CHRISTMAS TO REMEMBER

https://clipart.world/christmas-clipart/merry-christmas/


We Filipinos, especially Roman Catholics celebrate Christmas traditionally. Where people have their reunions, attend gatherings, join the Christmas activities and of course go to church. As 'ber' months begin we can hear different Christmas songs and we started to decorate our houses. It's really fun to celebrate Christmas but as I always say in my blog, pandemic changes everything. 




As Covid 19 pandemic boomed we changed our ways to celebrate holidays because we need to follow the protocols. In Vigan City they give gifts to the Bigueño's, like spaghetti packs, ham and other foods that we can prepare on Christmas eve. They still conduct activities where Bigueño's can join and have fun. Most of these activities are conducted online to ensure the safety of people.

There is still 'Simbang Gabi' and only few people are allowed to enter the church. For the people who want to attend the mass but they can't they can watch or listen to the radio, tv and Facebook live. We can also watch the Christmas tree light opening live online. There's a lot of activities we can do online. 




Overall, despite of Covid 19 pandemic we still find ways to celebrate Christmas and put smiles on people's faces. The pandemic might affect our Christmas but it won't stop us from feeling the essence of it. That makes this and every Christmas worth remembering.

As I move forward to the 2nd Quarter, new learnings, challenges and experiences welcomed me and that makes me a better person than yesterday.  In this quarter we are still writing our own blog plus we learned about the different tags in HTML. Actually, at first I didn't know where and how to create HTML files but now, I know the different tags and their uses. Creating blogs and HTML is a fun and productive activity. We also started our research, and that means new learnings for us. I could say that I have learned a lot this quarter.  https://www.fanpop.com/clubs/being-lazy/images/853701/title/lazy-days-photo Moving on, we always encounter problems and challenges in our journey and in this quarter I had a hard time fighting my lazy days. There's a day where I don't want to do anything. I wanted...

The Quality: Not as Good as Before

Image
https://www.baldwin-school.org/apps/news/article/1178052   The pandemic caused a lot of problems, not only on our health but also on the quality of education. During this pandemic we do not have a physical class but we do have an online and modular class. It is great because despite of Covid19 pandemic, DepEd makes ways for us to continue our study by different learning methods. I know that their intention was good because they do not want us to be left behind in the field of education and the question is, “Is the quality of education good?” I think it is not as good as before. https://www.rappler.com/nation/millions-fail-to-enroll-elementary-high-schools-philippines-2020-2021 We can’t change the fact that not all students, even teachers are able to keep up with the new strategies of learning. The number of enrollees during this pandemic is lower than the number of enrollees before pandemic. In school year 2019-2020 the estimated number of enrollees was 27 million while in S.Y 2020...

GOOD or BAD?

Image
  https://images.app.goo.gl/Rmmqeu5az8angqKq7 I will start this with a question, how can you/they say that it is a good or bad change? I always wonder because I heard people saying that “she changed in a bad way” or “she changed in a good way” like how could you say that? So here I am and in this blog I will let you ‘judge’ if these changes that happened to me were good or bad. I do not know how to start this but since our topic is about my changes as a person then I will start when I am still a kid. As far as I remember, the young Danaya is very talkative and she can’t keep a secret especially to her father. She doesn’t say bad words, she is weak but not afraid to take risks and she’s a papa’s girl. The Danaya that is writing this blog is very far from the young Danaya because like what they say there is no permanent in life.  https://tinyurl.com/themindjournal As I grow older, my perspective in life also changes. My only goal before was to be happy but now I have a lot of go...
