Threads of Tradition, Paths to Progress

    The significance of National Indigenous Peoples (IP) Month in the Philippines, under which celebrations are conducted in accordance with the theme “Weaving Culture, Enriching Future: Empowering Indigenous Communities as Bedrock of Sustainable Development,” resides in the relevance of indigenous culture to a sustainable future for which this nation aims. Being mindful of indigenous culture not only serves to remind all Filipinos of an irrevocable part of their collective identity but also serves to inform them of a reservoir of wisdom in which a better future resides.

     As a whole, the theme embodies the belief that indigenous culture, tradition, and knowledge can impact contemporary and future generations in a positive way if they are enhanced. For a long time now, indigenous people have proven to respect nature, work in unity, and make prudent use of resources. Such qualities are a pre-condition in addressing social and environmental issues in contemporary society.


     Empowerment is at the forefront of this message because, without considering and securing the rights and welfare of indigenous people, a sustainable form of development is not possible. The idea of providing opportunities for them without invading their ancestral lands gives indigenous people their identity, and at the same time, it will enrich their lives. Overall, National IP month promotes unity, respect, and a collective responsibility because a richer future will come when indigenous people are considered equal partners in nation-building.

The Last Chapter of Junior High School

________________________ Entry #1 ________________________ The Last Chapter of Junior High School                  Hello everyone, let me introduce myself. I am Warren James P. Giron, and I am part of 10-Marconi at Ilocos Sur National High School. I was born on May 20, 2010, and I am currently 15 years old. My mother's name is Ruby Pader Giron, and my little sister's name is Olivia Isabelle Giron. Some of my interests are math and playing games.               One of my greatest fears is people judging me. Every action I take, I always think about how people will judge me for doing it. This makes me nervous around people, as I try to avoid doing things that can embarrass me and judge me for it. Because of this, I often avoid interacting with people or feel awkward around them.         I have to overcome this part of me because I am a student of the Special Science Class. As a...

What I Have Done So Far

    ________________________ Entry #4 ________________________ What I Have Done So Far           A lot has happened in this first quarter of being a grade 10 student. I have learned a lot of valuable information from my teachers. I've learned that I need to be serious in my studies as I move on to more advanced and harder lessons in my subjects. I have also learned that getting enough sleep is important because lack of sleep makes you less focused and tired, speaking from experience.          I have encountered some bumpy roads traversing this first quarter. One problem I noticed is that I am cramming and procrastinating projects and assignments, specifically my thematic project and blog posts. As a result, I spent my night cramming for my projects, which disrupted my sleep schedule and caused me to doze off in class. This problem greatly affects me, making the quality of my assignments and projects mediocre at best, and I...
