       This grading is so remarkable for me. So many hardships I've had encountered in making my tasks.     Although, two months of the journey of the third-quarter period, many concepts were taught to us, such as the HTML Links, wherein we can link HTML files and link photos, and create our own web design.      I will continue to make HTML for my own web design. Someday, I'd be proud of myself that I've studied so hard, that I've created such a masterpiece. RESOURCES : Image used from  athlosstcloud.org

  The world is in the midst of a COVID-19 pandemic. As WHO and partners work together on the response -- tracking the pandemic, advising on critical interventions, distributing vital medical supplies to those in need--- they are racing to develop and deploy safe and effective vaccines.  Vaccines save millions of lives each year. Vaccines work by training and preparing the body’s natural defenses – the immune system – to recognize and fight off the viruses and bacteria they target. After vaccination, if the body is later exposed to those disease-causing germs, the body is immediately ready to destroy them, preventing illness. There are several safe and effective vaccines that prevent people from getting seriously ill or dying from COVID-19.  This   is one part of managing COVID-19, in addition to the main preventive measures of keeping a safe distance from others and avoiding crowds, wearing a well-fitting mask covering your mouth and nose, keeping indoor sp...

         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 a...

  Christmas in the Philippines   is one of the biggest   holidays in the country . The   Philippines , one of two predominantly   Catholic countries in Asia , celebrates the world's longest   Christmas season ,  with   Christmas carols   heard as early as September 1 and lasting variously until either   Epiphany , the   Feast of the Black Nazarene   on January 9, or the   Feast of the Santo Niño   on the third Sunday of January.   The official observance by the   Catholic Church in the Philippines   is from the first day of   Advent   until the Feast of the Epiphany on the first Sunday after   New Year's Day .      Every year, Filipinos from around the world mark September 1 as the beginning of the countdown to Christmas. This countdown, which spans from September to December, otherwise known as the "Ber months", is one of the most important traditions that make the world's...

      Lent is a 40 day season of prayer, fasting, and almsgiving that begins on Ash Wednesday and ends at sundown on Holy Thursday. It's a period of preparation to celebrate the Lord's Resurrection at Easter. During Lent, we seek the Lord in prayer by reading Sacred Scripture; we serve by  giving alms, and  we practice self-control through  fasting . We are called not only to abstain from luxuries during Lent but to a true inner conversion of heart as we seek to follow Christ's will more faithfully. We recall the waters of baptism in which we were also baptized into Christ's death, died to sin and evil, and began a new life in Christ.      In the early centuries, fasting rules were strict, as they still are in Eastern churches. One meal a day was allowed in the evening, and meat, fish, eggs, and butter were forbidden. The Eastern church also restricts the use of wine, oil, and dairy products. In the West, these fasting rul...

      After almost two months, another quarter of the school year had passed. The past weeks had been really so tough for me. This quarter had taught me a lot of things. I've learned how to code. Although that wasn't really my interest, I had fun making it.      Though, as a normal student, I had encountered some challenges in finishing the tasks. I am really bad at time management. But, as I slowly do my tasks one by one, I finally finished my tasks, which is a great relief for me.      Moving on, I will try to continue to study more coding. As I said, I really had fun making it. I really like creating the HTML. RESOURCES : Image used from athlosstcloud.org

       Kannawidan is an Ilocano term meaning feast of rich heritage and culture. It marks the 198th foundation of Ilocos Sur, which separated the province from Ilocos Norte by a Royal Decree on February 2, 1818. Th e 2016 Kannawidan Ylocos festival of the province of Ilocos Sur formally opened. The festivity features the heritage culture of the province which dates back two centuries ago.     The festival has so much importance to the Ilocanos, for it revives traditional practices that Ilocano elders passed on in the annual kannawidan Festival. The traditional opening displays the identity proofs that there is a culture that we have formed through the years, and we will continue our journey towards the future. The Kannawidan (local term for traditional practice) festival is also an occasion to strengthen the Ilocano culture, recognize Ilocos Sur's children, who brought honor to the province, celebrate the abundant harvest, or just celebrate the Ilocano...
