National Simultaneous Earthquake Drill

-

Drop, cover, and hold on in an earthquake.
In the past, there is no such thing like earthquake drill. A lot of people died because they have no idea and they don’t know what to do when an actual earthquake occurs so it is such a good thing that National Disaster Risk Reduction Management Council implemented this program so that students, parents, and staff will gain a knowledge on how to respond to the complications of an actual earthquake.

In every schools, they are teaching every student on how to prepare before an earthquake occur, but some of the students are not taking it seriously when they are performing earthquake drill. Some of them are on their phones, laughing, talking to each other, and more. They don't realize the importance of this activity because this activity which we called earthquake drill, is for their own sake, their own safety. 

            This is a very important activity to all of us as it would prevent us in panicking, which may lead to accidents when everyone is afraid during an earthquake, to be prepared and ready when a real earthquake occurs, and let people know where would they go, or where is the safest zone.

I am a woman with a dream. I am strong not only physically but also, for facing varies difficulties. I can stand on my own but I can’t live without my parents and Almighty God beside me. I am also a cheerful person who is always thinking positive in every situation. I love all types of art whether it is painting, drawing, photography, fashion design, interior design, and more. When I am despondent, music is my companion. I listen to them every single day because I feel like I am in my own world. The world where there is only happiness, contentment, and euphoria. Music takes all my pain away and replace it with decolorize. I am currently 10 th  grade at Ilocos Sur National High School. Myka Andres, your future doctor in God’s will and grace. source:  https://www.rappler.com/nation/237628-senate-hearing-provincial-bus-ban-2019

Change. It all starts within ourselves. We won't expect other people to do it for us but instead, we are the one who's responsible for it. A lot of people said nothing's permanent in this world. It all change and I, agree on that. Even your best of friends change, your feelings to your boyfriend or crush change but one thing is for sure, God's love for us will never change. It's already 2020, 1 month has passed and a lot of beautiful and horrible things are happening. This 2020, I will be brave. I will face all my problems with bravery and determination. I will never be afraid of trying new things. I will soar high, fly high until I'll reach my dreams and become the best version of myself.

We change ourselves not because to meet the standards that the person you love wants. We change ourselves bec

Since it is a national holiday, government offices are closed including business establishment except shopping centers. While, public transport such as buses, passenger jeeps, and tricycle still operate but their routes may be limited because of the parades.
