       In ancient times, women had no right to any property, no Right to vote and to give an opinion. They are only expected to stay home and do household chores and serve their spouses. Because of the unequal treatment of women in the past, when women were allowed to study they became aware of their rights that they should have. So they revolted to fight for these rights which resulted in them being allowed to vote and work. So National Women’s Month is important for all women.

     As a woman, the Women’s Month Celebration is an important occasion because it is a way of showing that we no longer live in times when the work of each gender is limited. We no longer are in a time when only men work, only women do housework and serve their spouses, only men can be strong while women are modest. Today, some mothers are women and some  are men who are fathers as well. So, there is no justice if we divide all mothers as women because there are men who are mothers to their children. In retrospect, we can say that women become empowered because people's minds become open to what they can do. Women who serve as heroes and breadwinners of their respective families is one reason, we commemorate Women’s Month. It can also make us feel and show that we value the existence of women and other genders without judging even one of them.


    By celebrating this occasion, we show that we do not need to continue to live according to the will and destiny of society or the majority. So, commemorating this is a way to awaken the eyes and minds of the majority that not only men are capable of doing their work but also women. That is why I wholeheartedly support National Women’s Month because I also seek equal and fair treatment and the elimination of stereotypes not only for women but for all genders.

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 ...
