Best part of the day of hearts

 


Valentine's Day, also known as Saint Valentine's Day or the Feast of Saint Valentine, is celebrated on February 14. Valentine's Day started out as a Christian holiday honoring a martyr. My eyes mostly saw red and pink throughout the day as love songs played nonstop. Everyone rushed to buy chocolates and flowers, and many people arrived carrying bouquets to give to their special someone. In contrast, I had a full day of work.

I spent Valentine's Day just like any other day, working on my broadcasting training. enjoyed our time together while we played around and laughed at each other's jokes. Many people might argue that the way I spent Valentine's Day doesn't represent the holiday; I certainly thought so as well as I made my way to my parent's car. My dad soon told me we were going to a family party, there the place was covered in decoration while family members from all places came to celebrate this wonderful day. While the elderly sat and engaged in conversation, the children happily ran around and played. I felt warm inside watching them enjoy each other's company.

The experience taught me a valuable lesson: You don't have to spend Valentine's Day with your significant other; you can also celebrate with your family, friends, and other loved ones.

This quarter was.....a struggle to say the least. I knew life ain't cupcakes and rainbows but nothing could've prepared me for the reality check this quarter was cooking up for me. Reality struck me so hard across the face, that till this day i'm still on the floor.  When I reflect on everything that transpired this quarter, I wonder how unlucky I had to be for it all to occur so quickly. I've never been under as much stress over so many different things. I was so stressed out that I was unable to cope with additional forms of stress. The waves lapping at the shoreline are a metaphor for my problems; they wet my feet, get sand under my toe nails, and make them feel wrinkled. To put it another way, they make me feel very depressed aka big sad. I do, however, have the ability to not feel overly depressed by simply making the best of the situation. It's one useful thing I learned this quarter: how to make the best of the worst. And even though this quarter put me throu...

Longganisa Festival!

  The Longganisa Festival is typically observed in Vigan City on January 22 of every year, just a few days before the Vigan City Fiesta on January 25. If I were to describe the beauty of the Festival Its beauty isn't just found in the glamorous performances of the contestants. Nor the efforts of the program directors to provide a good show for all. But I also think that the people assembling to watch this magnificent show adds to its beauty. to buy locally produced food and to support the contenders. It is encouraging to see people coming together to celebrate a festival that has been going on for a long time. Because of our collective fear of contracting the pandemic, none of us were able to fully enjoy the festival. But now that we can all go outside without having to be afraid, I have to admit that I can call this experience beautiful. REFERENCES: Angela Marie Aurellado, January 22, 2023.

The Great Week

  One of the most important religious occasions in the Philippines is Holy Week.  It is known as the Great Week in the Greek and Roman liturgical texts because God performed great deeds during this week.During this seven-day festival, Filipinos have the chance to ponder their faith, remember Jesus Christ's death, and show their devotion through a variety of customs and practices.  Beginning on Palm Sunday, which celebrates Jesus' triumphant entry into Jerusalem, Holy Week in the Philippines officially begins. Filipinos attend mass on this day and are given palm fronds as a memento of the event. On Holy Monday, a lot of believers visit churches and take part in the "Visita Iglesia," which entails stopping by seven churches to pray and consider the Stations of the Cross. Holy Week is a time for Filipinos to spend time with their families and friends in addition to participating in religious rituals. Many people use this time to travel and visit family members who live i...
