Hope of New Beginnings

 I have always believed that closing another chapter can be such a blessing because it only means opening new opportunities and possibilities in our lives. Last year was indeed a roller coaster of emotions. I felt genuine happiness, achieved some of my goals, explored new places, met new people, tried new activities and most of all, learned my lessons, not only in school but in all aspects of my life. I can say that it wasn't the easiest one to handle but I'm glad that all things happened because I really gained a lot of knowledge from those experiences. 



 Despite the happiness I have felt, I was also heartbroken, devastated, frustrated and also failed. But those didn't stop me from surviving, from rising amidst the big waves of life. And now, as 2025 enters, I am looking forward to achieve more of my objectives, make myself more proud, be mature enough to handle things and enjoy every process. Because if I am being honest, I am on my survival mode every single day and it's sooo exhausting. So this new year, I want to take everything slowly, just go with the flow but never letting anyone or anything control and manipulate me. 

 Though I still have no exact plans on what should I do throughout the year, I already know what I want to accomplish and I am keeping it all to myself because I prefer to do all things in silence to avoid the so called 'evil eye'. This year also, I am avoiding toxic people that drains my energy and wastes my precious time. I will just spend it with those who are worth spending for. And I will keep my mind off from negative energy so that I can see only the good things in all I do. 

 I may not be so sure of what might happen this 2025, I am putting my trust and faith in God because I believe that HIS plans are always greater than mine. Therefore I conclude that my new year's resolution is all about changing for the better and leaving the negativities that life has offered me the past years. Feliz año nuevo, y'all! ♡

SECOND OUT OF FOUR

  HALFWAY THROUGH SUCCESS  Looking back on this 2nd quarter journey, I really had a roller-coaster of emotion. Just like when we were still on the 1st quarter, but this time, I don't have much things to talk about. To be honest, there's nothing you can see here on my reflection (only some of the things that are important for me - lol.)  One of the reasons why I said this would be just a short recap is that I didn't have a lot of time to embrace this another chapter since I had a really busy schedule and I wasn't able to attend everyday class. It was really hard for me to multitask since I had my intensive journalism training/sessions and I only get to spend some time with my friends during my free time.  However, I still enjoyed things we did because of my classmates — especially my friends who helped me overcome my doubts and also helped me cope up with the things I have missed since my training days.  Even though I had a hard time doing the activities, they ma...

LIFE BEHIND EVERY LAUGH

          Behind The Kate Angelie You See Hi, I am Kate Angelie Irorita of Mabilbila Sur, Santa, Ilocos Sur. A girl who has a simple dream: to graduate and give back to the hard work of her parents. I am a Grade 10 SMC Student and I aspire to be a Certified Public Accountant, someday. If you are curious about my personality, well I am very clingy whenever I am around with the closest people in my life, also a jolly and bubbly girl. But in this blog, I will let you discover and dig deeper into a roller-coaster situation I have been in and how it made me even more stronger.  Since I was a kid, my family would always say "You're such a smart girl, I know you will become a successful woman in the future." and it used to be my inspiration, but almost everything has changed. When I entered Junior High School, that is when I started getting pressured, not just with my academics, but also with the life i'll be having. I doubted myself together with my abilities, sk...

THEMATIC: VAWC

VAWC: TIME TO RAISE AWARENESS THROUGH ADVOCACY In our society, cases of abused women and children has exploded over the years.  More than 70% of sexually abused children are between 10 and 18 years old. Among those victims, 20% are under 6 years old. Cases of child sexual abuse are one of the most common issues that the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) has to handle after abandonment and neglect.  Despite the Anti-Rape Law of 1997, rape remains the most frequent type of sexual abuse, followed by incest and fondling. 98% of rape victims are women. The incest percentage is another alarming data: 33%. ● 98% of these sexually abused children are girls. The 2015 Child Protection Network Annual Report states that 87% of all cases of sexual violence are girls, 11.7% of which occurred in the family home. While victims of sexual exploitation for commercial purposes are predominantly 13 to 18 year-old girls, some of them were forced into prostitution from age 10 for t...
