Welcoming 2025: A New Year, New Experiences, and New Goals

 



          Welcoming 2025: A New Year, New Experiences, and New Goals 




    The New Year always feels like a fresh start, a chance to reflect on the past and plan for the future. My New Year’s celebration this year was filled with simple yet memorable moments that I will cherish forever.  We began the evening with a casual dinner surrounded by my family and relatives. It wasn’t about fancy food or extravagant decorations, it was about being together, sharing laughter, and enjoying each other’s company. After dinner, we headed to our barangay’s New Year program. The event brought the whole community together, and it was heartwarming to feel that sense of unity and joy as we welcomed 2025.  


    Of course, what’s a New Year celebration without fireworks? Lighting them up was an exhilarating experience, filling the night sky with vibrant colors and the sound of celebration. The best part of the night, however, was playing games with my cousins. The fun and friendly competition, coupled with the thrill of winning prize money, made it a night to remember.  As the clock struck midnight and we welcomed the new year, I couldn’t help but think about the things I want to improve about myself. These are my resolutions for 2025:  

    I want to be more organized with my time, ensuring that I balance my responsibilities, hobbies, and personal time more effectively.  My family is my greatest treasure. I hope they continue to love me and, hopefully, scold me a little less this year. I’ll do my part by being more understanding and responsible.  I recognize the importance of self-discipline in achieving my goals. Whether it’s sticking to a routine, focusing on my studies, or simply following through on my commitments, I want to build better habits this year.  Beyond these, I aim to keep learning, improving, and striving to become the best version of myself.  

    As I step into 2025, I am filled with hope and determination. The New Year offers endless opportunities, and I’m ready to face them with optimism and perseverance. Here’s to a wonderful year ahead for all of us, may it be filled with growth, love, and countless memorable moments!

"Overcoming Challenges in Learning HTML"

                                  "Overcoming Challenges in Learning HTML"      This quarter, I discovered the basics of creating websites using HTML. I learned how to structure webpages by incorporating elements such as headings, paragraphs, images, and links. These skills deepened my appreciation for web development, showing me how every component contributes to the functionality of a webpage. Engaging in hands-on activities highlighted the importance of accuracy and attention to detail in coding, as even minor errors could significantly impact the final output. It was incredible to see how a series of codes could be transformed into a visual and interactive web page.      One of the challenges I encountered was managing my time while retaining the concepts I learned. Balancing multiple subjects, school projects, and personal responsibilities often felt overwhelming. Ther...

             Empowering Women, Ending Violence: The Fight for Equality and Safety      Violence Against Women (VAW) continues to plague societies globally, with the Philippines being no exception. The alarming findings from the 2022 National Demographic and Health Survey (NDHS) underline this reality: nearly 1 in 5 Filipino women have endured some form of emotional, physical, or sexual violence. This crisis necessitates urgent action, advocacy, and education, which are at the heart of the yearly 18-day Campaign to End Violence Against Women. Anchored on Republic Act No. 9262, or the Anti-Violence Against Women and Their Children (VAWC) Act of 2004, this campaign highlights the imperative of collective efforts to protect women and uphold their rights.      The Anti-VAWC Act of 2004 serves as a cornerstone in the fight against gender-based violence. It recognizes various forms of abuse—physical, emotional, economic, and sexu...
