Philippines: Goal to be a Resilient Country

                 Resiliency, the ability to adapt to something and to recover from something. And as we all know, the Philippines is a disaster prone country because of its location. It’s situated in the Pacific Ring of Fires and it’s prone to earthquake, volcanic eruptions and because of its location, it experiences a lot of typhoons every year.                 Just like the typhoon Yolanda, which is one of the most destructive typhoons that entered the Philippines, and the Earthquake that took place in Bohol, these disasters left a big damage to our country. It took a lot of lives of our countrymen. But despite these disasters, the government did a lot to help the citizens recover from the damages.                 WE may not be the most resilient country, but if the government will try harder in helping the country, we may become one of the most resilient countries. Resiliency is one of the traits that Filipinos adapted to. So we must be proud to be a Filipino.

When we were tasked to post for the first time, I didn’t know what to do. I didn’t know what to write in my draft but with the help of my teacher, I was able to handle it myself. She taught us how to write the introduction and the rest of the blog. Another is how hard we manage time. There are many requirements in other subjects and the blogs. But as time passes, we managed to adapt and passed our requirements on time. Time management is one of the mo
