A Star in the Making



On the day I was born, September 19, 2009, it was as if a new star had appeared in the sky, twinkling brightly as I opened my eyes for the first time. That star was me, Jeyla Erycar Tabudlo, the youngest in my family. Now, as a 14-year-old in my fourth year of high school, I’m looking forward to turning 15 this coming September. Growing up in the Municipality of Caoayan, particularly in Barangay Fuerte, I’ve learned that like a star, I must shine through the challenges and opportunities that shape my journey.

From a young age, I’ve always been dedicated to everything I do, especially my studies. For me, education is the best way to show gratitude to my parents for their endless support and sacrifices. They often tell me that my eyes gleam like stars in the night sky, reflecting the endless possibilities that lie ahead, waiting for me to reach them.

I face every opportunity with courage and determination, knowing that each step brings me closer to my dream of becoming a member of the Philippine Military Academy (PMA). Though the path is long, I am determined to make it. For my loved ones, and for that special person who inspires me every day, I promise to work hard and ensure our future shines just as brightly as the stars that have guided me this far.

 This Environment Month, we embarked on a shared mission to nurture and protect our Earth. Together with my fellow student leaders, we united to cleanse our surroundings, from campus grounds to coastal shores. Here’s a glimpse of our heartfelt efforts to protect our environment. Alongside my fellow SSLG officers, we took pride in participating in the National Clean-Up Drive, embodying our dedication to a cleaner, more sustainable future. We, with the other Filipino Club co-officers, contributed to the clean-up drive in our department towards a healthier and more fresh space for learning. During the coastal clean-up, we banded together to restore the beauty and liveliness of our shores, ensuring our oceans remain clean for generations to come. Capturing a quiet yet meaningful moment as I collected plastics and debris from the beach, contributing to the protection of our fragile marine ecosystems.

Learning, Challenges and Moving Forward

 Throughout the first quarter, I learned not only about ICT tools but also about the art of blogging. With blogging, I learned to sort out my thoughts and then be able to express them clearly through writing. It even made me better at putting out information in an interesting but formatted way to capture readers' attention. That is the very reason why I feel all the more confident to voice ideas online, be it some academic or personal projects. However, one problem I faced was the allotment of time between creating blogs and keeping up with other subjects. Creating quality content for blogs involves time and thought, and having multiple deadlines for completing different assignments sometimes made me feel over-whelmed. At first, focusing and keeping my tasks in control were not easy. To overcome these challenges, I improved my skills in time management. I began allotting specific blocks for writing blogs, thus making it easy for me to have control over my use of time, and receiving
