Reflection for the third quarter

Image
The third quarter has come to a close, and as I reflect to my academic journey for this quarter. I does see some succession of my hardwork and dedication for this quarter, however the positive result that I got for this quarter is not as easy as you think, I ave experience many up and downs before seeing the result. So let me share to you my experiences for this quarter and my take aways. I've discovered many incredible things beyond my expectations, especially in conducting Community Base Research, using html and css to present an output is beyond what I expect. I 've learned and improve my skills in using html tags and css and to become more patience in typing tags and finding resources about our CBR. Yet, all my discoveries and learnings for this quarter is impossible without any downs in my journey. The problems that I've encountered for this quarter is my lack of patience, struggling in using css and lastly, our CBR parts have been deleted from the usb file of my  grou...

Imagine stepping back in time to Vigan, a town in the Philippines back in the 1600s. You’d see bustling streets filled with merchants selling rice, tobacco, and indigo, all brought in by boats on the Abra River. The houses were amazing ,grand and elegant, built by wealthy families who were the heart of the town. Life revolved around the church and community, with everyone coming together for festivals and celebrations.   Fast forward to today, and Vigan is a place frozen in time. Those beautiful Spanish colonial houses are still standing, a reminder of the town’s rich history. Now, instead of merchants, you see tourists from all over the world, drawn to the town's charm. The town is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, a testament to how well it has preserved its past.    Of course, things have changed. Vigan is no longer just a trading center. Tourism is now its main source of income, and the town has adapted to welcome visitors. You’ll find hotels, restaurants, and even souven...
