Becoming the Best Version of Myself in 2025: Maria 2.0

        2025 is here, and I’m ready to take on the year with a fresh mindset! Every year, I hear the saying “New Year, New Me,” but this time I actually want to live by it.


    First, I’m setting goals to help me grow. I want to be more organized, no more forgetting homework or losing important stuff in my bag. I’m also going to work on my health. That doesn’t mean I’m giving up snacks completely (let’s be real, chips are life), but I want to eat better and try to exercise more.


    


    Another big goal is to focus on my mental health. I’m planning to write in a journal regularly and practice gratitude. Even when things get tough, I want to remind myself of the good things in life.    




    Lastly, I’m hoping to explore new hobbies. Maybe I’ll try painting, learn a new skill, or even just spend more time outdoors. The idea is to keep things interesting and challenge myself to step out of my comfort zone.





This year, I’m not aiming for perfection. I just want to be better than I was last year, more focused, more kind, and more motivated. New year, here I come!

Building Foundations: What I Learned About HTML Tags and Attributes

Image
            This quarter in our ICT class, I learned a lot about HTML tags and attributes, which are the foundation of building websites. Before this, I never fully understood how websites were created, but now I have a clearer idea of how web pages are structured and how they work behind the scenes.        One of the most important lessons I learned was how to use HTML tags to structure the content of a webpage. Tags like <p> are used for writing paragraphs, while <h1> to <h6> tags are for headings of different sizes. I also learned about the <a> tag, which is used to create links to other pages or websites, and the <img> tag, which displays images on a page. Understanding these tags helped me see how different elements on a webpage are arranged.        Another key lesson was about HTML attributes. I learned that attributes give extra information to tags and can control how ...

Elpidio Quirino: From Humble Beginnings to National Leadership

Image
    Quirino, the sixth president of the Philippines, was a man of humble beginnings whose dedication to public service left a significant impact on the nation. Born on November 16, 1890, in Vigan, Ilocos Sur, Quirino grew up in a modest family.

Celebrating Indigenous Peoples Month 2024: Honoring Heritage and Upholding Rights

Image
     Every October, the Philippines celebrates National Indigenous Peoples (IP) Month to honor the rich heritage, culture, and contributions of indigenous communities. This year’s theme,  “Mga Katutubo at Katutubong Dunong: Pahalagahan, Pangalagaan, at Parangalan”  (Valuing, Nurturing, and Honoring Indigenous Peoples and Indigenous Knowledge), resonates deeply as the nation also marks the 27th year of the Indigenous Peoples Rights Act (IPRA) of 1997. This law was a milestone in recognizing and protecting the rights of Indigenous Peoples over their ancestral domains, culture, and traditions.      Through various events, discussions, and programs, this observance shines a light on the unique knowledge systems of Indigenous Peoples, passed down for generations. These systems, often rooted in environmental sustainability and community resilience, remind us of their vital role in protecting biodiversity and preserving cultural heritage. It also encoura...
