Who Is She?


  It all started when my father, Joffrey Tattao fell in love with my mother, Cherry Lyn Tattao. On one fine day, 20th of January 2005. They had me, their first daughter. I was named after a soap "Kizza" by my Mama and "Claire" from my Mama Lola, my mother's aunt. I am their eldest and a loving sister to Trisha Faye Tattao. I grew up in a simple yet happy life with my family at my mother's province, Ilocos Sur. I am currently studying at Ilocos Sur National High School also known as ISNHS. At the age of 15, I've been through a lot. I just let people talk about me behind my back but I won't let anybody use my past just to invalidate my current mindset.

 

  I am not as good looking as I would like me to be. Sometimes people will make fun of me because of my physical appearance and I kept on blaming myself for not being good enough for everyone. But then, I realized that I can't please everybody. I got pimples, stretch marks, and a not so perfect body shape but it doesn't matter at all it doesn't make me less woman. I am someone who accept and love my flaws. I am not a perfect student though I am trying my best not to be the last at all. Among all the subjects, my favorite is biology, because it gives us knowledge about the world's creation of everything living on Earth. Another reason is, I want to be a succesful doctor in the future. I am not the type of student whose active in joining extracullicular activities in school. I mainly enjoy sitting in the comfort of my home and I just learned cooking during this pandemic out of boredom. I'm not into sports but I spend my free time reading and listening to music. I am a sociable person, I like getting accquinted to new people. I am easy to get along with because I love making friends and I always try and offer help to solve a problem, except contrived ones. I try to suppres my feelings and emotions especially when its negative but sometimes, they still breakthrough the light.


  I am still growing, learning and making mistakes. I always cling to the process of God that everything that happens is for my own good. He taught me how to be strong, He gave me courage to face my trials in life. The world has made me feel that I need to love myself more than anything. I don't need anyone's validation when it comes to self-appreciation. Your opinion won't change how I perceive myself. I value my flaws, know my worth, and love myself so much.

      Just like you, I also have many insecurities in life. I also totally agree with you that we need to love ourself more than anything else. Don't blame yourself for who you really are, just ignore the people who are dragging you down and always remember that you are loved by your parents and of course God.

    I'm thankful that you have shared your thoughts, because like you, I also cry a lot because of my insecurities, but reading your piece have made me realize that my insecurities won't make me less as a person. This work of yours have shown how genuine your personality is, and I'm sure we have the same vibes! Take care always, and may God bless you and your family!

What I feel towards President Duterte's Administration

Dear President Rodrigo Roa Duterte,   Greetings Mr. President! I am honored to give you a letter that expresses my feelings on your governance.   These past few days Mr. President, I have observed that a lot of your countrymen are disappointed and unsatisfied with your responses in battling COVID-19 pandemic. I appreciate the actions you've done during this COVID-19 pandemic but obviously, victims of COVID-19 in the Philippines is rapidly increasing and it has been months since the lockdown was implemented on different parts of the Philippines.    I understand that your position takes a lot of responsibility but may I ask Mr. President, does militarist approach helpful in battling COVID-19 pandemic? Since then Mr. President, you always rely on militarist approach in every crisis you face.    Does the closure of ABS-CBN in times of a pandemic, which is the country's largest media network as well as the so called white sand in manila bay helped in slowing dow...

Quality Education, Amidst a Pandemic?

Image
         The Department of Education (DepEd) managed to implement the "Blended Learning Method" as a new method of learning caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Despite this, millions of students are still able to enroll in the country this school year. But a lot of students are also unable to enroll because they do not have enough money or not ready to keep up with the new mode of study. The government chose to pursue the opening of classes without adequate equipment, preparation, and support.  Even before the COVID-19 pandemic, we felt the learning crisis in our country. The expensive but slow internet connection that the Philippines has is still a major problem for students in the country. Is it even possible for education to have a meaningful continuation in the country, amid problems that the government has not yet solved? The pandemic stopped the normal activity of every individual in different parts of the world.    Even before this momen...

        There are things we do not expect and can prevent from happening. Such as various disasters like earthquakes, hurricanes, volcanic eruptions, landslides, tsunamis, wars, let us also include a pandemic and other catastrophic events that can take many lives. All we can do is prepare for it because nowadays the catastrophes are not expected by anyone. But we have to accept that this is already part of our lives and the only thing that can be done is to be prepare at all times.    Many have lost their lives, lost their loved ones, and property was damaged due to typhoon ondoy that hit the Philippines in September 2009 and followed by typhoon Yolanda in Leyte. There was also an earthquake in bohol and it will be remembered that there were wars in Zamboanga that even the inoccents were affected as well as the eruption of the Taal volcano and the pandemic that is taking place today. There are really a lot of things we don't expect like the ones mentio...
