‧*₊⋆☃︎‧*❆₊⋆The True Essence of Christmas⋆꙳•❅‧*₊⋆☃︎‧*

        Christmas is the time when we celebrate the birth of our dear God-- Jesus Christ. Families prepare various special foods, decorate their homes, exchange gifts, and gather together. While these traditions are very meaningful and important, the celebration of Christmas goes beyond and deeper than the food on the table and the excitement of midnight. At a deeper essence, Christmas season is about love, faith, and togetherness with our loved ones.₊°🎄✩₊°🦌⊹♡


        Before Christmas Eve, we planned the foods we wanted and bought everything after making sure each one of us preferred food were considered. On Christmas Eve itself, we spent the entire day preparing and helping one another. We made bibingka, graham, spaghetti, and macaroni. My mom also ordered bagnet, and my tita brought sushi. In the afternoon, my grandparents arrived, giving us the chance to catch up, share stories, and enjoy each other’s company.🎄‧₊°


       As the evening went on and the foods were all ready, we designed the table, took photos, and spent the remaining hours before midnight bonding, and talking with each other. When the clock finally struck at 12 am, the joy we felt did not just come from the food and the gifts alone, but from being with the people we love. Our parents gifted me a bag and my sister a watch-- presents we truly value because they were given with love.‧₊°🎄✩₊°🦌⊹♡

        Overall, I believe that the real essence of Christmas is about love-- love for our family, friends and most especially, our love and faith for God. Christmas reminds us to appreciate the people around us, to be grateful for all our blessings, and to celebrate Jesus’ birthday by giving and loving each other.

The Pieces That Shape Me: Formed by Hobbies, Pages, Peace, and Empathy

Image
             M y name is Athena Rane I. Reburon, and I'm currently in Grade 10 under the Special Science Program in Ilocos Sur National High School. I'm 15 years old and I live with my parents and my older sister, whom I’m very thankful for. I enjoy exploring and learning new things, especially those that spark my creativity and challenge my knowledge. Being part of this program motivates me to do my best while trying to balance my academics with the hobbies I love.            B ooks—others might find them boring, but for me, they are one of the things I truly love. Fantasy and mystery thrillers are my favorite genres, because they allow me to dive into different worlds and experience exciting, unpredictable adventures. As the saying goes, "A person who doesn't read lives only once, while a reader lives many lives." Whether it's exploring a magical realm or investigating a gripping crime story, I al...

Together for a Greener Community (1st Quarter Thematic Project)

Image
  H ere, I'm helping clean our barangay by sweeping to collect trash and by taking out weeds for a safer, cleaner, and greener environment. I n this picture, me and our club are working together to clean our school. It shows that teamwork makes a bigger impact in keeping our community clean and environment-friendly. T his 3rd  photo shows how we recycle our trash at home and turn it into something useful, like a pot we use to plant vegetables. I n this 4th photo, me and my family segregate our garbage. Since the garbage collector doesn’t reach our house, we collect it ourselves and travel to properly dispose it in a designated area. By starting in our home and working together, we can create a greener, cleaner, and better environment for everyone. We can achieve a clean and green community as long as we stay united and committed in taking care of our surroundings. . ݁₊ ⊹ . ݁ ⊹ . ݁˖ . ˖ . ݁༉‧₊˚.°❀⋆.ೃ࿔*:･°❀⋆.ೃ࿔*:･· · ─ ·𖥸· ─ · · ₊˚.°❀⋆.ೃ࿔*:･°❀⋆.ೃ࿔*: . ݁₊ ⊹ . ݁˖ . ⊹ . ...

1st Quarter: Learning Through Lessons and Problems

Image
            T his quarter was full of ups and downs. I learned a lot — not just from academic lessons, but also through personal experiences that helped me become better at handling challenges.           I n ICT, I discovered so much about the history of something we really love and use every day — the internet. It was really interesting to learn how it all started, from the launch of Sputnik and how it was first intended for military use, to how it eventually became accessible to almost everyone around the world. Through each group reporting, I learned about the key people who contributed to its development made me realize how much work and innovation went into creating something we always take for granted.            W e also learned about websites, including web addresses, HTTP, and ccTLDs (country code top-level domains), which help locate websites. I now understand what t...
