       The Month of September had finally started. For some, it is a sign that Christmas Day is coming near. In short, the start of what we call "Ber Months"! But for the students under Science's control, it is the National Science Club Month (NSCM). This is mandated in Proclamation 264, which then-President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo signed in September 2002. This year's NSCM theme is "Immunation: Arming Science Clubbers with Healthful Defenses Toward National Wellness".          The Philippine Society of Youth Science Clubs (PSYSC) explained the rationale behind the theme as follows: "It is a play on ammunition and immunization. We would like our science clubber to be armed/ to be immune against diseases through imparting knowledge about disease, how they spread etc. Our goal is not only the science clubbers that benefit from this knowledge but also their school and communities and thus leading to national wellness". Their aim truly rem...

           Calling everyone who wants to be a hero! Worry no more! You don't need to gather up your weapons and have superpowers. All you need is to have the spirit of nobility, bravery and heroism. It might not be probably lurking on your familiarity and knowledge about the news regarding the heroism of a dog who saved girls who were about to be ran down. Oh, how about the Taxi driver who returned a large amount of money left on his Taxi by a passenger. You had probably read on articles about the OFWs as Modern Day Heroes.

They are my Modern Day Heroes, why? Simply because without them, there will also be no professions. Aside from their responsibility of answering our questions and filling the blanks in our knowledge and understanding, they ...

           Taun-taon, ang buong Pilipinas ay nagdidiwang tuwing Buwan ng Agosto. Bakit? Dahil ang buwan lang naman na ito ay kung kailan isinilang ang ating "Ama ng Wikang Pambansa" na si Manuel Luiz Quezon. Siya ay tinaguriang "Ama ng Wikang Pambansa" dahil siya ang nagsulong na gumamit na lang ng isang wika ang ating bansa nang sa gayon ay mapadali ang pagkakaintindihan ng bawat mamamayang Pilipino. Ang wikang kaniyang tinutukoy ay ang natatangi nating Wikang Pambansa, ang Wikang Filipino. Ito ang dahilan kung bakit ang buwan ng Agosto ang Buwan ng Wika ng Pilipinas.         Simula pa ng magsimula ang selebrasyon ng Buwan ng Wika, tuwing taon ay may iba't ibang tema na siyang tumutulong upang mabigyan, maisulong at mapatingkad ang kahulugan kung bakit kailangan pang ipagdiwang ang Buwan ng Wika. Ang tema ng Buwan ng Wika para sa taong ito ay "Wika ng Pagkakaisa". Para sa akin, nais ipabatid ng pariralang ito na ang Wikang Fili...
