Rare glimpse of avidity



Four months in, it was a day under scorching summer sun like the usual ones, but as I stepped my way to its gates, splattering sounds of cooking oil, aromas of the savory and dainty crescent-shaped Empanada, echoes of the speakers reverberating, and the crowded-chaotic ambiance filled the corner — and so there it was, one of the long-awaited school events every student longed for unfolded.

As the clock struck 10:00 in the morning of December 2, ribbons were cut, and the festivities have begun! What awaits the vast area of the bazaar is the vigorous young entrepreneurs with booths varying from different flavors of Cuisines, Technologies, Agriculture, Beauty Care, and Local Tourism. From the name itself, the bazaar is anchored with the initiative and aims to fuel the entrepreneurial spirit of the young students in thriving success, merging all passions into one event. 

There is no better way to enjoy the bustling bazaar than with a belly full of good food. As soon as we walked past the entrance, I went to check the Cookery Booths teemed with delicious and affordable food options that are perfect for breaks. I tried the freshly-cooked Empanada filled with juicy meat and vegetables that perfectly melts into the mouth along with its steaming crispy crust. It was merely "Empanada" to some, but it is a comfort food at its finest, meticulously crafted with the love and fervidness of the young Entrepreneurs. 

Delighted as I was, I diverted my gaze upon different booths to try something fun and new. A few meters away from the Food fair is the Dressmaking Booth which almost persuades me to fork out a few pesos in my pocket. The booth features an extensive collection of great bargains, along with quality pieces and brands of clothes, making the bazaar a degustation of the finest fashion find. Dresses, shirts, and any other custom apparel are found in the booth which Fashionistas from the school will definitely rock. 



In spite of the hectic ambiance created by the Bazaar, I pondered as I walked through every booth. The initiative led me to think about the significance of growth, willingness to learn, and having the urge to face tomorrow as we are nearing age. It opened my eyes to the importance of embracing and developing one's abilities, talent, and vigor for success because after all, being a successful Entrepreneur is not just a simple walk across the bazaar.

Just like that, the second quarter has come to an end. I am halfway through the calendar, yet fragments of my soul are still caged. I continue to face every day of the quarter with a heavy sigh armed with a plethora of doubts. I shed the skin I wore in the past quarter and weave a new one. I strive, still, to get out of my shell and to achieve what I am aiming for, no matter how one would deem it mediocre.  The second half felt like walking on a dark and dim path of a hallway. Setbacks are indeed inevitable, but this time I can say it's more tolerable. Codes and tags for this quarter were really enjoyable because the emphasis was more on comprehension rather than memorization. The hands-on approach was also an effective way to grasp an understanding of HTML! Being able to witness a webpage after the lengthy (sort of) process of typing and merging the codes we've learned was the spark that made me love the course. As I've gotten fonder of the subject, I'm considering tak

March-ing towards Inclusive Society

As the world moves ahead to mark International Women's Day, the clock on women's rights continues to tick. This month of the year, we MARCH to celebrate women's contributions to social, political, and economic change. As well as we march to remind women that the fight for gender equality is not yet won.  The month-long celebration is also an invitation to listen to women who have been suffering in silence for far too long. On International Women's Month, it is a must to let marginalized women tell their stories. Their stories speak of oppression but it does not end there. Such stories are a testament to their hard work and determination in attaining freedom, equality, and a sustainable future not only for themselves but also for their co-workers; their entire communities; the younger generation; as well as their fathers, brothers, husbands, and sons. The latter proves that the fight for gender equality should not be fought by women and girls alone. To put an end to ineq

Always, in all ways.

Hi! The name's Keira! I go by "Kye and "Kamil" most of the time, but I am very fine being called "Keira". To be frank, I don't know how to properly introduce myself  — getting the most intricate words that would describe me and weaving them beautifully is much more complex than what I expect it to be. Still, it'd be fun to introduce myself because I know myself more than anyone, innit? I'm much like yellow dazzling sunlight in human form, as someone dear to me had always described me (the origin of my name is a "beam of light" which makes this statement a bit interesting!) to say, at least, I am someone who is compassionate, diverting and luminary — they say I have a manner with words that soothes the soul. I like meeting new people, although I am terrible at conversation and often get drained from constant socializing, which I think my MBTI is accountable for (obviously satire!). If there is something I'd risk everything for, it
