Everything so far

Image
            So to begin, everything so far has been interesting and stressful, interesting in a sense that we get to learn a variety of things concerning computers and technology, some examples are the the Internet, blogging and search engines. Our teacher taught us the history of Internet, different internet components, internet tools, internet services, web server and browsers, types of data on the internet and the people behind internet. As we go further, we learn about blogging, the different portfolios of matrics and advantages of blogs to us as students. We also learned about the ways of interacting with search engines using search techniques like "Boolean Logic"and others.              The first quarter has been stressful, posting blogs constantly, making drafts, quizzes after reports. Although this may come off as natural to other students, I feel most of us feel the same way that it was a stressf...

BUWAN NG WIKA 2018(Filipino: Wika ng Saliksik)

Image
            Filipino, wikang walang katulad, ngunit baka iniisip ninyo, malamang wala namang wika na magkakatulad, at para diyan ay tama ka kaibigan, ngunit hindi yan ang ibig kong sabihin.

Noong 2007, ang wikang Filipino ay ang unang wika ng 28 milyon na tao, o mahigit kumulang isangkatlo ng populasyon ng Pilipinas. 45 milyon naman ang nagsasabing ikalawang wika nila ang wikang Filipino. Ang wikang Filipino ay isa sa mga 185 na wika ng Pilipinas na nasa  Ethnologue . Ayon sa Komisyon sa Wikang Fili...

President Duterte: S.O.N.A. 2018

Image
                        On July 23, 2018, President Duterte made his third SONA, which was his shortest SONA with a span of 48 minutes which was beyond his promise 35 minutes due to a couple of remarks he did during his speech. Compared to his previous SONA where he  went off-script with a long-winded tirade against critics in a speech that lasted two hours, Duterte in 2018 stuck mostly to his prepared speech without the usual expletives.               He talked about the main topics he'd prepared for his speech, he mainly talked about the unrelenting drug war, stating that it was far from over.  Duterte rants against illegal drugs and how it ruins lives but does not cite specific numbers on how his administration's anti-drug war addressed this problem. He had promised to end this problem within 6 months. This is very concerning, seeing as how the possibility of more peop...
