Nutrition Month 2018: "Ugaliing magtanim, Sapat na nutrisyon aanihin"

The national nutrition month is celebrated every July and according to the National Nutrition Council, the theme for this year's celebration is "Ugaliing magtanim, Sapat na nutrisyon aanihin" This theme intends to persuade Filipino families in planting fruits and vegetables together in order to keep their body healthy and to remind them the importance of planting or food gardening.

Nowadays, people thought that planting is just a simple thing to do but the truth is that this simple  thing is very hard to reach that some can't even plant fruits and vegetables in their own backyard. Our body will be strong and healthy if we are planting fruits and vegetables that we can eat than buying fruits and vegetables that have preservatives and chemicals that are added on it in order for them to preserve its freshness so that they can sell it in a more expensive price. We should start encouraging our family and fellow students to start planting different kinds of nutritious foods that contains vitamins and minerals because not only the farmers have the ability to plant, all of us can plant only if we want to because there's nothing wrong in planting but it is very helpful in maintaining our body strong and healthy and it can also help in lessening the pollution that can cause different diseases and can harm our body. It is healthy and delicious to eat fruits and veggies that you and your family planted because you knew and you are sure that it is safe because it is planted with natural fertilizers and it is freshly harvested without preservatives and any other chemicals that might destroy your health. Food gardening is very helpful and useful for us and for our family because we can safely eat it or we can sell it for additional income that our family can use.

If we start planting now, today's generation and also the  next generations will be benefited and they can continue what we've started so that they can live healthy. So let's start now in order for us to live a happy and healthy life.

War against Drugs

HIS EXCELLENCY

RODRIGO ROA DUTERTE

President - Republic of the Philippines 

Malacañang Palace, Manila

Dear Mr. President,

I would like to congratulate and express my gratitude for leading our country. I am very glad and thankful for your immediate action in suppressing the drug lords, drug pushers and drug users in our country but the problem is that many innocent people got involved in the operation against drugs. You kept your words when you're still campaigning for the position of Presidency that you will vanish all those who are involved in illegal drugs because they are the source of crimes in our country. They cause many cases like killing, murdering, harassing, raping, stealing and many unlawful doings. These cases were lessen when when they started the war against drugs. Many drug traffickers were arrested and some of them were killed because they attempted to exchange bullets to the police that's why many innocent people were involved and got killed because of what those drug traffickers have done. Our fears were lessen because the number of drug traffickers are dropping because of the active and continuous operation of the Philippine National Police and other government agencies. There are many complaints and rants about your vulgarity and how you lead our country but I respect your own opinions because I know that we have different beliefs and I know that you just want what's best for our country. We thank you for securing our safety by clearing those drug traffickers. Our country is slowly developing and growing because  of your great leadership.

I hope that you will continue what you've started and that you'll accomplish all your projects until you term is done to make our country peaceful, drug free and safe to live in.

Respectfully yours,

Mija Kirsten C. Rimay

Loose of Grip, Grief of Lose

Independence Day is a national holiday in the Philippines. It is celebrated every 12th of June. When our ancestors were colonized by the powerful countries, they thought many ways on how to free our country from them in order to save the next generations from their harmful hands and to let them feel or experience freedom in our own country. We owe the freedom that we are experiencing today to our brave ancestors who contributed and fought the colonizers in order to claim what is ours. So, what are we going to do in order to preserve the memories that our ancestors left?

Nowadays, many Filipino youths are neglecting and ignoring the sacrifices of our ancestors who are willing to sacrifice their lives in fighting for our rights in having our country freely. Some also doesn't know what happened during the time when we are colonized and who are our ancestors who are brave enough to lead and convince them to fight in order to end their suffering from the hands of the colonizers. They are fond of using gadgets and social media that they ignored or forgot to give attention about the history of our country or how did our country freed because maybe they find all of these not interesting or boring. It is important for us to know the happenings during the time when our country was still colonized. We should always remember, give importance and celebrate the Independence Day in order to give respect and honor to our heroes who sacrificed and fought for our freedom. What they've done was a big thing for our country, if not for them maybe we are still under the hands of the merciless colonizers.

It is very important to remember the time when our country was free from the colonizers. We should treasure it because our ancestors suffered a lot in order for us to have freedom in our own country. Therefore, we, the youths should start appreciating and knowing all about the contributions of our fearless heroes against the powerful colonizers. We should do it now because according to our national hero, we, the youth are the hope of our country.
