Vaccinations of Children and Teens

Image
  Vaccination is a simple, safe, and efficient technique to protect yourself from deadly diseases before they infect you. It strengthens your immune system by utilizing your body's own defenses to create resistance to specific pathogens. It is important because it keep us safe and less danger to get the virus. But does not mean that you will never get caught, it just lessen the percentage. Vaccination is safe, and side effects, such as a painful arm or a low fever, are usually small and short. Serious side effects are conceivable, but they are quite uncommon. Getting vaccinated serves two purposes: protecting ourselves and those around us. Because not everyone can be vaccinated such as extremely young babies, people who are seriously unwell, or those who have particular allergies. They rely on others to be protected from vaccine-preventable diseases.

The days of war

The Day of Valor, also known as Araw ng Kagitingan, remembers the valor of Filipinos and American soldiers during World War II when the Japanese controlled the Philippines, and is observed on or around April 9 each year in the Philippines. The Day of Valor is observed as a national holiday. The general public has the day off, and most schools and businesses are closed. Despite their defeat, the captive soldiers remained strong and emerged as heroes as a result of the battle. The fall of Corregidor was accelerated by the surrender of Bataan. On this day, World War II veterans parade in various places around the Philippines. Small parades take place throughout the Philippines, but the primary feature of the Araw ng Kagitingan is when the country's president delivers a speech.

Kannawidan Ilocano Festival

Image
    Kannawidan has a long history in Ilocos Sur. Kannawidan comes from the Ilocano word "tawid," which means "heritage" or "inheritance." Kannawidan got its start in 1992, when Guia Monroy Valenciano, then the vice-president of PCI Bank, started talking to acquaintances about starting a museum. The first night began with a dancing fountain show, followed by a drone light show and a spectacular fireworks display from the top of the New Legislative Building. As a tribute to all frontliners, the drone light show showed the strong character of Ilocosurians to not give up in the face of the pandemic. Following that, the Quirino Stadium hosted a comedy night. The Saniata Ti Ylocos beauty pageant was crowned on Kannawidan's second day. The Chef Wars Cooking Competition, which took place on the same day, was an exhibition of inventiveness and expertise for foodies. The festival was capped off on the third day with the LGBTQ Night, which featured a Your Face S...

Joy to the world full of challenges

Image
E very year, the Christmas season is the most anticipated occasion. Giving and receiving gifts, as well as exchanging hearts. Even in the midst of the pandemic, we still manage to be compassionate. We're having a good time with our loved ones. Last year's season was a little dull because we spent it mostly at home. Even with the epidemic, though, today's situation is different. I was able to go home at Vigan myself and go to see my friends and love ones. Then my entire family spent their vacation here, and we were able to appreciate the season as a whole. I'm hoping that this year will be the start of the changes and the end of the obstacles we've been given.  May the Christmas spirit bring everyone joy, the joy of Christmas bring you hope, and the warmth of Christmas bring you love. Rejoice in the Christmas spirit of peace, the Christmas miracle of hope, and the heart of Christmas, which is love.

Newly Vigan Fiesta celebration

Image
  The Vigan fiesta is one of the most anticipated events in Vigan, Ilocos Sur. Usually back in the days when there were no classes, no work, and everyone was celebrating Vigan. Going to carnivals and watching every group of people's parades. Those were the happy times that we all desired. Since the pandemic is still ongoing, I'm guessing it will be held online as well for everyone's safety. The Vigan City Fiesta is held on January 25th each year. It is observed on the feast day of St. Paul the Apostle's conversion. Vigan City's patron saint is St. Paul. St. Paul was known as Saul before his conversion, and he was a zealous persecutor of Christians. After having a personal encounter with Jesus Christ on his way to Damascus, his name was changed to Paul, and he endured many hardships and dangers in order to spread the word of God to distant lands. So let us do our best and wait for the right moment to restore normalcy.
