Post-It Reaction: The State Of The Nation Address 2018

The president has released another bombardment of statements in the form of the SONA, The State of The Nation Address. Once again, I am here to share my thoughts and opinions on what our dear president has said during the said event. There are a lot of good points that he has said and I would just like to give a reaction.

The biggest statement that he has said that everyone is talking about is "Your concern is human rights, my concern is human lives." Now, what he said was right and wrong. Right in the sense that he actually cares about human lives but wrong in the sense that he doesn't care about human rights. He needs to focus on these both, as him actually not giving a damn about human rights is actually damaging his and the country's reputation. The most ear-catching moment was when I heard that he wants to create a new department, called the Department of Disaster Management, which is for me, an amazing idea. Think of this, a department that actuallt helps out in the management of disasters, genius! Our country is a disaster-prone country and it's great that the president has actually thought of this idea. I hope it gets fulfilled soon.


Then, he mentions the same old stuff that he promises to do, like the eradication of drugs, the stoppage of corruption and red tape, the stoppage of contractualizaton (which is very good) and all the other good stuff. We already know these things, but I just wish that he can actually pull these off.

Some of the old presidents of the country actually considered this SONA to be inadequate. They expected more from him. I think he did a great job in addressing the State of our country, and I don't think that it's half-assed or anything. It was a great SONA.

Overall, this was pretty solid. It was chop suey, very mixed but it still was on point. I hope that all of what he said will come true, as these will be for the betterment of our country.

Dreams Maketh Futures

Dreams. These are the things we hope to achieve, the person as we hope to become. These dreams of ours are what drive us to achieve what we want in life. Dreams are kinda like the schematics, the paths, the guides that can make our futures brighter. Your dreams can make your future. Our dreams can guide us into making our futures a successful and a wonderful one. Let's say that you want be a doctor. You're dreaming of being a doctor, so you're gonna do your best to be a doctor. You're gonna try to get high grades and to be excellent in school, just so that you can be a doctor. You're gonna do everything it takes to be a doctor, and you're not gonna give up until you reach your dream. See what I mean? Your dreams can make your future. Think about this. Dreaming is already similar to planning to your future. You're already planning what you want to be, when you want to be that, why you want to be that. Like I've stated earlier, dreams are your blueprin...

High School Day ; Yay or Nay?

High School Day; the celebration of the foundation of our school. This event, for me, is the only one I kinda enjoy, and I actually get to participate fully. The question is, is the High School Day a Yay, or a Nay? This is my insight on this Year's HS Day. This year's HS Day, was, interesting. I'm gonna have to be blunt here and say that this year's HS Day was quite normal. Though he day was uneventful, most of the field demos were fun to watch. So many people complained about this year's rendition, but I cannot complain. I know that they can make next year's event better. It was kind of enjoyable. The happiness that this year gave was just a 7 second smirk. It quickly faded away. Props to the organizers for giving their best, but it can be improved. To be honest, the preparation was more fun than the event itself. For me, the HS Day is not a Nay or a Yay, it is NEUTRAL. it was fun, but there were parts that were not fun. I hope that next year...

Should The New Year Change You?

"New Year, New Me." A trend (I like to call it a trend) that circulates the world, the web; basically everywhere whenever the start of a new year comes around. People say that they'll change a part of themselves, but I've noticed that only some people do that change. This is the equivalent of the New Year's Resolution. The only difference of this and the NYR is that a miniscule amount of people keep their "New Year, New Me" promises, while none actually complete their Resolution. I don't hate on this trend, but it's kinda just an excuse for someone to do something productive or to be productive and responsible in general. Now, about my title. Should we only let the New Year change us? Is the New Year the only time we can change ourselves? Why not change yourself now, instead of waiting for the new year to come? I'm sure that the long time frame of waiting will be more than enough for you to change yourself. Again, not saying that I hate N...
