Technology: A Friend to Humanity

     Technology has advanced with years and it has changed the way we purchase products, the way we live, the way we communicate, the way we travel, the way we learn and so many changes have been brought about by these continuous technological advancements. As people's demand and lifestyle change, the demand for advancing the type of technology we use is high.

     "Wavefront: Accentuating Potentials, Activating Technological Advancements" is the theme of this year's National Science Club Month. How does this relate to us? The theme urges everyone of us to use our knowledge, and unleash our potentials so that we can contribute in the development, progress, and advancement of technology. We may not know it, but even our smallest efforts can contribute to our society, and inspire other people to take actions too. Technological advancements have helped business and organizations save time and cost of production, helped in the field of medicine and health care, communication and even in agriculture. From food production, environmental conservation, possible cures for illnesses, etc., to understand how the things around us operate, we must be able to comprehend the science behind it. We all have potentials -- all we need is dedication and zeal.

     "As we design new technology, as we make use of our knowledge about the world and the knowledge that we are gaining about ourselves, about our thinking processes, through research in Al and cognitive simulation, we will realise that we have to apply our technology in a way that keeps man’s peace with the universe in which he lives, instead of conceiving our technology as a weapon with which man can wage war on the rest of nature." - Herbert Simon

My Dream, My Future

     Life is about balance. Everyone in this world has dreams which force them to work hard. Working on your dreams and achieving them is a great feeling from which very few are able to go through. On my hands are my dreams and desires to have a wonderful future. There's a destiny I have to take. One wrong step in the wrong direction might change who I am and where I'll be. In order to be somebody in the world, I have to fight and strive for it and also dodge the bullets that come along with it.      Pursuing my dreams isn't as easy as it seem. We are told that mistakes may break the perfect little future we have in mind so I hardly make my decisions especially now that I'm on the crossroad of choosing which strand to take on Senior High. Every decision I make has significance and even the tiniest choice would reverberate. I shouldn't risk making wrong decisions for my future is at stake. I have to deal with the ups and downs of pursuing my dreams. Ups...

When Life Changes for You

    The value of time is known to those who value the moments each year. Little by little, time slows down as we think about the year that had gone past. Every year that had gone by has become history and a future is yet to come. 2018 already came to an end and although I welcomed this year with a heavy heart within me, I believe that I still have the rest of the year to have the happiness and peace of mind I know I deserve. As they say, New Year beckons us to change. New Year means new hope in life. New Year brings some new strive, but amidst the new things, there is a strange happiness within -- of all the things so special, of all the things as seen. Life changes in a fraction and things turn old. This year, I'm letting go of the things that are old. The old is going so I must let go. I’ll try to be at my toes even when I need to strive. I’ll try to be happy all the while and listen to what my heart speaks as well as what my mind dictates. I’ll walk past my tears ...

Expression of Opinion

Dear Mr. President, To formally start my message, I would like to greet you a good day, all the way from Ilocos Sur. Being a President is a huge responsibility. The stake of the Philippines depend under your leadership. I would like to convey my opinion regarding your governance, including your campaign against illegal drugs. Many people wish that you will be impeached because they dislike your supremacy but as a matter of fact, you are better than those they favor to be on your position. You are a good leader but some people choose to be blinded by your negative actions. Instead of helping you avoid mistakes, they wait for you to commit one. Though there really are reasons to be against you. Your campaign against illegal drugs took away the lives of people that may still have room for change and even those who are innocent. While you are eradicating one of the roots of crime, you are violating human rights also. Second, isn't it odd for a person reigning on a pedestal to be sp...
