Mother's Day!!

 Mother’s Day is a special occasion celebrated globally, but it maintains special significance in the hearts of Filipinos. In the Philippines, Mother’s Day is not just a day for mothers; it's a day to honor all motherly figures, including grandmothers, aunts, and godmothers. Families often gather to represent gratitude, love, and appreciation through different motions such as preparing special meals, giving heartfelt gifts, or organizing outings. It’s a time for reflection on the sacrifices and unconditional love that mothers provide.

Traditional Filipino celebrations of Mother’s Day often affect a blend of everyday practices and indigenous customs. One common tradition is the preparation of a unique dinner featuring Filipino delicacies and favorite dishes of the honored mother figure.

 Another tradition is the giving of "mano po," a gesture of respect where younger family members take the hand of their elders and press it to their forehead as a sign of reverence and love. Additionally, it’s familiar for families to attend Mass or hold a prayer service to offer thanks for the blessings of motherhood.




Happy Mother's Day!!!

QUARTER 2 JOURNEY

Quarter 2 brought overwhelming stress, fueled by constant cramming and anxiety. Each night, exhaustion gripped me as activities piled up, leaving insufficient time for rest. The persistent challenges added to the strain, creating a cycle of sleep deprivation and heightened pressure. It was a demanding period that tested both mental resilience and time management skills.  The difficulties or issues I have encountered in the second quarter include when I find it difficult to understand some other subjects and when I am pressed for time and find it difficult to finish a work. I struggle while making a blog since I don't write much and I'm not sure how to edit it, and I also have trouble reporting because I'm not used to speaking and interacting with a lot of people. In order to overcome these obstacles and problems and complete all of my academic responsibilities, I focus, take notes, and improve my time management. In order to write better essays, I work on my communication s...

Let's go Estudyantepreneur!

 At the heart of the estudyantepreneur program are a variety of engaging activities designed to unleash the entrepreneurial potential of students. One such activity is the film viewing sessions, where students gather to watch and discuss movies that delve into the triumphs and tribulations of entrepreneurship.

Games, photo booths, and picture-taking opportunities are also part of the estudyantepreneur lineup, ...
