Change for the Best

    

    

New Year's Resolution, Senior Planning Services, Rettrieved from https://www.seniorplanningservices.com/2017/12/20/new-years-resolutions-make-aging-enjoyable/


    With the year 2020 coming to an end, a new year, 2021, has now begun. Even though the past year was spent mostly in the four corners of our home due to the global pandemic, various happenings have happened. There were pleasant and unpleasant things that occurred, and there were times where we did nothing at all. That is why with this New Year, I wanted to start it with a joyful jumpstart hoping that the rest of the year will come along with less unpleasant moments.

    Of course in the New Year, there is always the New Year’s Resolution that everyone always tries to accomplish thinking they have to start a New Year with a new self. In my list, I wanted to start the first of January with being productive. Waking up early in the morning but having a decent amount of sleep. Though I have done this a few times last year, it was due to the resume of classes. For me, being productive means not draining myself in front of my phone scrolling through social media but creating plans on what I have to do on that day. In connection to this is creating a healthy lifestyle for myself. Lessening my intake of sweets, junk foods, and carbonated drinks like cola will be somewhat a challenge for me. However, if I wanted to become healthy this year, there is not much I can do but restrain myself. In the past year, I was also a fan of staying up all night. The latest was 7 in the morning, I did not sleep at all and I know for sure that staying up all night destroys one's metabolism causing them to be prone to diseases. This is the habit that I wanted to change the most for this year so I am trying really hard in restraining myself from the radiation of my phone not just for my health but also to lessen the naggings I get from my mother.

    With every day that goes by, reminding yourself about the things that you wanted to change, the habits you want to change may not be as easy as what you think. However, if you are doing it for your own well-being, isn’t that worth the restrictions? Knowing that you are living a healthy life can be enough motivation but also being happy is a plus. That is why starting a New Year with a new “me” will not be as bad as what you think.

  1. What a productive and wholesome way to achieve your resolution, Shieryn. I hope you persevere well with your respectable premeditated wishes. But remember to not push yourself as hard, okay? May you and your family have a good new year and may you stay safe!

History from A Beautiful Miracle

       Every history has its own story behind it. If you go back to how the Binatbatan Festival began, you will not only believe in humanity again, but also in God. Back in December 1882, 30 years after a chapel was built in Vigan Cemetery in 1852, a devastating epidemic suddenly broke out, claiming the innocent lives of people in the community.      The death of 932 residents during the months of November and December of 1882 was the beginning. The shocking and devastating number of deceased residents due to the epidemic alarmed not only the residents but also other natives and mestizos or residents with Spanish blood, so they asked a favor from the then pastor, Dr. Evaristo Abaya, and asked to visit the Santo Cristo Milagro of Sinait. The people conducted a nine-day novena to the Santo Milagroso and the number of deaths slowly decreased and fortunately stopped on the last day. They praised God for the miraculous miracle and the majority of the reside...

To the Most Precious Woman in My World

       Mother, Mom, Mommy, Mama, Nanay. Whatever you call the most precious woman in the world, she's the one you're thinking of. From what I have heard from various mothers, being a mother to her child or children is the most difficult yet fulfilling job a woman can ever have. Mothers carry their child for nine months. Amidst the pain and struggle of carrying a child inside of them, they never gave up, which is why we are all here today.      Childhood is the hardest part of taking care of your child, my mother says, because children don't have minds of their own yet and are unaware of the things they do, whether it's something good or something bad. Mothers sacrifice a lot for their family, their children. They sacrifice their freedom to take care of and provide for a newborn baby. And so we celebrate Mother's Day. Every second Sunday in May, we honor our mothers for their sacrifices and the love they have shown us throughout our lives. It's the da...

All-Out Me

     The words all-out are what I believe describes myself the most. When I want, like, or love something or someone, I give all of me for them. Some may disagree but it’s my life so I do what I want.      Just like when I am interested in a group or band called IZ*ONE, I go all the way to show how much I love them and support them in their album sales and nominations. I saved all of my allowance in school just to buy their first full album, which became a record-breaking comeback selling over 500,000 albums and I am so proud to be one of it. When they come back with new songs and albums, I stream their music videos day and night. And when it comes to their music show wins, I try to spread the ways on how to vote for them on my social media accounts. Of course, it paid off because they took home all seven music shows trophies, which made them one of the few famous groups who managed to achieve an all streak win. My mother sometimes tells me off on why I am ...
