Sinising ti Ilocos


Kannawidan, an Ilocano celebration, usually takes place in the last weeks of January to the first week of February. It is typically observed with a flurry of activities and the famous trade show. Typically, while Ilocanos schedule time for this celebration, tourists from various regions visit and stay. It is undoubtedly a moment to respect our cultures and traditions. 

Ilocano abilities and talents, such painting and music, are frequently showcased at festivals. Since Kannawidan celebrates the establishment of the province of Ilocos Sur, it is significant to us Ilocanos. Through this festival, Ilocanos can showcase their skills and talents while paying homage to our heritage. Local businesses have the potential to be discovered at the trade and culinary expo. Aside from that, the trade fair displays the goods produced by each municipality. Kannawidan is crucial for our tourism since it draws visitors and informs them about our province. It enables families and friends to make more cherished memories. 

In Ilocos, art is more than just an attraction -- it is a lifestyle, in which Ilocanos will always call it as Sinising ti Ilocos.

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

Only The Young

We are now to a future of what we once dared to dream about and longed for under the night sky riddled with endless shimmering stars. To a replacement for the chaos that deemed harsh, lonely, arctic nights. To an end of what once hindered the children of a worthy youth — an end to countless wistful breezes of what they could have been. Mental health repercussions for children are one of the most complex arrays of challenges during the pandemic.  With arising cases, and being unable to foresee plenty of euphoric occurrences, fear, uncertainty, isolation, and parental fatigue arise which negatively affected the children's mental health.  A median of 1 out of 5 young people has been reported by UNICEF for often feeling depressed, pre- and during the pandemic.  The disruption indeed left young ones fearing the uncertainty of their future.  The agony that lurks beyond the outbreak had everyone so engrossed in their own lives that they had forgotten about the children who looked up to th
