A Day of Love and Kindness

                    Valentine’s Day is a globally celebrated occasion dedicated to love, appreciation, and kindness. People express their affection through heartfelt gestures such as giving chocolates, flowers, and greeting cards to their loved ones. Couples often spend time together, while families and friends also use this day to show their love and care for each other. Schools, workplaces, and even social media are filled with expressions of love and appreciation during this time.

                Love is not just about romantic relationships, it is also about cherishing friendships, valuing family bonds, and practicing self-love. Simple acts of kindness, like writing a note, helping a friend, or even sharing a smile, can make someone’s day brighter. Valentine’s Day serves as a beautiful reminder that love can be shown in different ways and that even the smallest gestures can have a big impact. The goal of this celebration is not in expensive gifts but in genuine acts of care and thoughtfulness.

                    While Valentine’s Day is observed once a year, its message should be carried out daily. Showing love and kindness should not be limited to just one day, it should be part of our everyday lives. Whether it’s through words of encouragement, acts of service, or simply spending time with the people who matter, spreading love makes the world a warmer and more meaningful place.

                                      First of all, let me take a moment to introduce myself. My name is Jayzen Aldridge Eugenio. I live in Paratong, Santa Catalina, Ilocos Sur, but I originally come from Cavite. I'm 15 years old and currently a Grade 10 SSC student at Ilocos Sur National High School. I'm a pretty shy person, but I love being active, especially in sports. Even though I'm quiet and don’t talk much, I really enjoy staying fit and playing games. It can be hard for me to express my feelings, so people might not always know what’s on my mind.             Because I'm quiet, it can be difficult for others to understand me, but I think being shy has its positives. It’s helped me become a good listener and a caring friend. Even though I’m not outgoing, I see myself in a positive way. Playing sports has taught me discipline and perseverance, and it's helped...

           Taking care of the environment starts with getting everyone in the community involved. We can do this by educating people about simple ways to help, like recycling, saving water, and using less energy. By learning about the effects of pollution and waste, people are more likely to make better choices that help the planet.                         Another way to engage the community is by organizing group activities, like cleaning up parks or beaches.

It also helps start conversations about how to keep the community clean and green.              Lastly, we can support eco-friendly practices and work with local leaders to create policies that protect the environment. Starting a community garden or sharing tips on social med...

The Second Chapter

         In the second quarter, I was introduced to HTML coding, which is the language used for development of websites. To create a webpage, I learn how to use the HTML contructs  <html>, <head>, <body> among others. I also underrstood how to place images, links and text which increased my understanding of the creation and presentation of websites.           One problem I encountered was trying to figure out how some tags correlate to each other when the webpage was not how I imagined it to be. I have to say it was annoying at times, but I accepted that it was just an easier way of putting all of it on the wall and connecting the dots that will go there.           In order to do this, I went through my notes, watched video tutorials, and ask assistance from my teacher and classmates.  As I practiced, I grew more assured in error corrections and in the step by step construction of page...
