Gutom at Malnutrisyon, Sama-sama Nating Wakasan

       In everything we do, we use up energy. And we get the energy to do work by eating.  Malnutrition. None of us want to go to this level. This school year, the Department of Education tells us, students to be more observant, more aware with regards to our health.

           It is a simple way of letting the students realize what is important. We need to stay strong to be able to keep up in school. If not, we will be weak. We will not be able to cope up. We can easily fall down. I, as a student can see the importance. Malnutrition, with everyone's help can be solved. A good physical body can help in maintaining a healthy mind. And a healthy mind can help in becoming successful in the future. 

            We all have a purpose in life. And to do that purpose,  we have to be ready for whatever comes in our way. Come, everyone! We can help by participating and listening to what we know is right. Let us fight  starvation. Let us fight malnutrition. Together, we can take care of each and everyone of our fellowmen. We can all move and attain our goals. Thank you for reading and God bless.

Letter To The President

Honorable President Benigno Simeon Cojuanco Aquino III

          Malacañang Palace

                   Manila, Philippines

Dear Mr. President,

        Greetings. 

       First and furthermost, I would like to thank you for your good services and devotion for the country. I am but a simple student. Young and some may even call me naive. But I am old enough to know what is going on in our country. I can see the economy rising. It is a great achievement, but here there are still people who suffer. As I walk around, and even in my hometown, there are still beggars. As we live, every one of us hopes to study, get a sturdy job and be content and happy in life.

       Poverty, poor educational systems and pollution are one of the main problems here. I, as a student, would like to help in improving the condition currently taking place in the Philippines. A simple donation from those who can make a living can help. Every single one of them can. And with regards of the pollution, I do hope you, our hope and leader, can find a way to do something about this. It is wrong when I hear that people throw oils and harmful things to the ocean causing diseases and death to the marine creatures. What about the fish now? Some people fish to make even a small amount of money. The freedom to do so and the protection of the marine life is a must and should be looked over more. 

        There are many problems now. I, together with everyone else would like to resolve these. I have looked on the bright side. I know we, the people can give our full trust to you as our president. Don't forget that the life of a president is never really over. It is because his legacy goes on.

           Thank you, Mr. President. Good luck and good day.

Respectfully yours,

Brittany A. Lim
