THE US/MEXICO BORDER

Image
HISTORY OF THE WALL - The border was established in the 1819 Adams-Onis Treaty between the United States and Spain which specified a border in the vicinity of the western edge Mississippi River watershed. Mexico gained its independence over Spain but the border was reaffirmed in the 1828 Treaty of Limits. The wall is intended to reduce illegal immigration to the USA from Mexico. Photo not mine ITS IMPACT TO THE CITIZEN/ COUNTRY/WORLD-    The impact of the wall really affected both its people and countries because it is somehow unfortunate to the Mexicans because they prefer to cross the border because there are a lot of opportunities and there is a large wage gap between USA and Mexico. But mostly Americans thinks that it beneficial especially in their economic state because they believe that Mexicans are a drain on the economy.

FAMILY DAY 2020 “Other things may change us, but we start and end with the family.” –Anthony Brandt Pinagdiriwang ang “Family Day” sa ACT kada buwan ng Enero. Ang thema ng celebrasyon ngayong taon ay “Stronger Families, Stronger Asianista Community #BFFsaACT 202. Ito’y munting celebrasyon na nagpapaalala sa kahalagahan ng pamilya. Ang pamilya ay hindi lang ito makikita sa sariling mong mga magulang at mga kapatid, kundi ito’y makikita rin sa iyong mga kaibigan, mga kamag-aral at pati rin sa mga guro. Ang pamilya ay pinaka-importante sapagkat ito ay isa sa nagbuo sa ating pagkatao. Hindi ko kaya mawala sila sa akin dahil sila ay nagpapasaya at sila ang tumanggap sa akin kahit mahirap akong intindihin. Alam ko hindi ako perpekto na anak pero randam ko parin ang pagmamahal nila sa akin at nagpapasalamat ako dahil binigyan ako ng pamilya na minahal ako na walang kondisyon.  Bawat baitang ay sumayaw sa kung ano ang tribo na kanilang pinili.

LOVE IS WHAT HOLDS US TOGETHER

Love is the essence of everything. Most of the things that we do is we do it for love. We can’t see it but we can feel its presence everywhere. Each of us has the capability to love someone because it is part of the human nature. In a world full of hate, people should reciprocate by giving love so that negativity couldn’t grow. I believe in the saying “Love is the most powerful thing” because it is the reason why people are united to build a better society. Christmas is known as the most celebrated occasion everywhere because it is where we spend more quality time to the people we love. Being a Filipino, we are used of having a traditional way of celebrating Christmas. “Noche Buena” is the time where we gather around and eat with our family. Since I was just a kid, I am used of seeing my family buying cigarettes, beers and etc. than purchasing on what is really needed. As I grow older, I realized that it is not necessary to buy things for just recreational use during the occasion bec...

ANG PAGMAMAHAL AY ANG DIWA NG PASKO

Image
              Ang pasko ay ang pinakamagandang panahon sa buong taon dahil ito ang araw ng pagkasilang ng ating Diyos. Mahalaga sa buhay ng tao ang Diyos kaya ang kanyang kaarawan ay ipinagdiriwang sa buong daigdig.    Ang araw na ito ay nagsisimbolo ng pagmamahalan dahil makikita sa bawat isa sa atin ay nagbibigayan ng mga bagay, mamahalin man o hindi, ang mahalaga ay ito ay galing sa puso.   Bilang isang estudyante, gusto kaming makatulong at makapagbigay sa mga tao na tumulong rin sa amin sa paaralan. Kaya binigyan kami ng pagkakataon sa aming guro na mag “ipon challenge” upang makabigay ng regalo sa mga diyanitor. Ito ay isa sa mga pinakamagandang hakbang na nagawa ko sa pasko dahil ito ang paraan upang pasasalamatan ko sila sa kanilang mga mabuting gawa at alam ko na hindi madali ang kanilang trabaho kaya saludo ako at nirerespeto ko sila kagaya ng pagrespeto ko sa aking mga magulang.    ...
