New Year, New ME!

 The end of a year implies the start of another one which I think is the reason why most people love to celebrate it. From fireworks to feasts and gatherings—we all have different versions of welcoming the beginning of another year. And obviously, some welcome the year through the trendy mantra “New Year, New Me”.

Everyone has come up with their own creative ways of executing ‘New Year, New Me’ versions. Some of them are starting fitness gyms, doing better academically, or even setting new hobbies to be the best versions of themselves. This mantra is actually healthy for everyone since its main goal is to eviscerate their bad habits or behaviors and make a better person out of them.

I personally think that it is very significant for people who feel bad about themselves. This way, it helps them sort out things that make them feel insecure and try to be someone better than their previous self.

This practice helps people who do it to acknowledge their flaws and reflect on their inner selves.

THE HISTORICAL BATTLE OF BATAAN: Araw ng Kagitingan

         Bataan has fallen.       Araw ng Kagitingan (Day of Valor), April 9, the day Bataan fell into Japanese hands, was declared a  national holiday in the Philippines .  Previously called Bataan Day, the day is now known as  Day of Valor  or Araw ng Kagitingan, commemorating both the Fall of Bataan (April 9, 1942) and the Fall of Corregidor (May 6, 1942).     The capture of the Philippine Islands was crucial to Japan's effort to control the Southwest Pacific, seize the  resource -rich  Dutch East Indies , and protect its  Southeast Asian  flank. In late summer 1941, the Roosevelt Administration began a series of moves toward Japan that could only conclude with war. It began supplying arms to  Chiang Kai-shek  in China, began a massive military build-up in the Philippines, and imposed a series of embargoes, most importantly a refusal to sell Japan petroleum unless they evacuated all of China, including  Manchukuo  (Manchuria). This "ultimatum" was rejected by Japan and

BINATBATAN FESTIVAL OF ARTS: A tapestry of culture and arts woven by a Miracle

            The Viva Vigan Festival of Arts is celebrated the first week of the month of May. It was started in 1993 by the Save Vigan Ancestral Homes Association, Inc. (SVAHAI) to promote awareness of the value of the historic town, which was hoped to strengthen the resolve to preserve and protect this heritage site. For the past sixteen years, the festival of arts has been successful in drumming up attention for Vigan's ancestral houses. With the help of national and local agencies and media, arts and non-governmental supporters, the festival has also succeeded in promoting other aspects of Vigan.       Although, because of the pandemic, the latest festival held was inevitably different. A lot of activities held were according to the situation.      But the pandemic didn't stop the Ilocanos to celebrate their festivities. With proper safety precautions, the festival happened safely this year. REFERENCES: https://www.edmaration.com/2012/05/viva-vigan-festival-binatbatan-stre

The Filipinos were discriminated upon. Social hierarchies soon became in place in the country. And some peop
