Drowning Deeper in the Abyss



The pandemic went hard, to me and to us and there is no doubt about that. all of us were affected especially us students. the opportunities we should have has been taken away from us. we haven't experience the high school life which is supposed to be the best part of our school life. our studies were interrupted and was forced to stay inside our homes for safety.

I was one of the many students who suffered during pandemic, whether it was financially, mentally and many more. my grades dropped very low during pandemic. it was hard as I had to learn everything by myself and too shy to ask help from the teachers and my fellow students. I was behind, I passed my outputs and module beyond deadline. I did not learn anything and I will never learn anything in that situation. it was scary as I thought that my future was surely ruined since I always depend my happiness and satisfaction to my grades. Failing my grades means failing life for me back then. I was thankful that the teachers were understandable back then and always extended the deadlines, I was relieved that they made sure we were not left behind. I know it was hard for them too but they still helped the best they can. 

Passing the outputs were simple and so was getting my modules done, but I had a very hard time doing it. My body would not cooperate and it felt heavy to even hold. a pen. Answering the modules became a very hard task as I do not know anything, I can't seem to process what I read and I can't function well. I do wake up, I sleep more than 8 hours but my body felt tired everyday resulting in me procrastinating. I always do my modules last minute as the pressure is what makes my body move.

I thought that was the hardest year of my life but then when I was in grade 9 it became much worse, the teachers helped us and they did help a lot but the lessons were hard and I could not keep up and felt I was left behind for sure. it came to the point that I stopped passing my modules, I was not proud of that but the pandemic ht me hard.

My studies during pandemic were disappointing but I can not take back the time so now I would just do my best to do well in school and make myself proud again.

Women: Epitome of stronger than steel

It is well known that early 20th-century organizing efforts by women led to the celebration of International Women's Day. Working women in the United States of America organized protests against their treatment, which included low pay, a lack of protection, and subpar living conditions for women. The Women's Month Celebration is a time when women's accomplishments are celebrated in the Philippines. This month, in particular, is dedicated to celebrating the successes of all women. We are all aware that being a woman is perilous and dangerous, and that women experience prejudice, thus being a woman is both a blessing and a curse. But, being a woman is wonderful and incredibly strong. I firmly believe that being a woman is extremely strong and deserving of praise. Imagine having a human developing inside of you. and adding a new human being to the world?  They are much more admirable because of the seriousness of the anguish they endure. When they overcome the challenges, they...

Essence of Giving

  We all know that December 25 is the day of Christmas, which is to say that this is the day we give gifts to the closest people in our life. When we think of Christmas we all think about gifts, which is true, but for me the most important is that they took their time to pick a gift for me. They were willing to spend time to buy and wrap a gift and what I found endearing the most is that they thought of me. Gifts are just a bonus for me, it is the thought that I appreciate very much. Since I was a kid I would always get excited about Christmas since in my mind I would get a bunch of toys or money to buy toys, well I am still excited bout it until today but not as much when I was a kid. What I am most excited about is the reunion, back then every year we had a reunion, not the whole family but some relatives would come and we would play games and eat till our hearts content. Now, even for a minute or an hour we can not meet the same as we do back then since all of us are growing up ...
