Taal Volcano eruption last January 12, 2020 Sunday-over 15,000 families have been evacuated.

Taal Volcano is a large caldera filled by Taal Lake on Luzon Island in the Philippines. It’s last eruption of the main crater was in 1911. The Taal Volcano has 47 craters. Last January 12, 2020 it erupted around 1:00 in the afternoon. It affected many cuties near the Taal Volcano. Families are forced to evacuate their hometown for their safety. Animals are left behind as the people are rushing to evacuate. The roofs of the houses collapsed because of the weight of the ash. Ash emissions reached 55,000 ft altitude reaching Zambales. Flights at Ninoy International Airport, Manila was cancelled due to the ash. 714 volcanic earthquakes happened since Taal Volcano’s Initial eruption. People from other places are moved to donate for the victims of the Taal eruption. Taal Volcano’s eruption has caused severe damage to the Philippines’ agricultural sector, with losses climbing to P3.06 billion. The livehood are pretty much affected due to this natural calamity. Over 15,000 families or about 66,000 individuals have been evacuated following Taal’s steam-driven eruption on Sunday. Classes are suspended as it is still in Alert Level 4. As a Sebastinian, I can help the victims by donating old clothes, blankets and things that will help them through their situation. I used the social media as a platform to raise awareness to ask people to cooperate and help the victims. People messaged me and went to pur house to drop off their donations.

I used Tumblr as a software for this article because it is easy to use and this is where some people put their blogs or article post. Tumblr is just one of the other applications where in you can engage people.

School isn’t just about learning...

School isn’t just about learning and studying,school is about building friendships, camaraderie, and getting through obstacles. I am Claire Anne Therese P. Hermano a Grade 12 student of San Sebastian College Recoletos-Canlubang under the ABM strand. At the start of grade 11 I was really nervous because its my first time being a transferee student. Grade 11 taught me life-changing lessons. I experienced obstacles like depression and anxiety. I was failing. I became emotionally weak, but with the help of my beloved friends, i got through this phase of growing up. Although life is a roller coaster ride and although I still experienced this, I now know how to cope up and how to handle these problems. 

Grade 11 was a learning experience for me as it taught me how to stay calm, go slow and solve things one by one. Now that I am now a  grade 12 student, I now know how to handle things. My friends taught me how to be a strong person because we got to share our own problems and experiences. They are the ones who helped me on my problems inside or even outside the school. We may not be sisters by blood, but we are sisters by heart. I am very thankful for my sisters for they became a part of my life. To France Lopez, Chaira Molinar, Verniedeth Caldo, Jazmine Cabrera, and Amanda Boquer, Thank you very much. Without you guys my senior high school life will be boring and I am very thankful that God blessed me with sisters who will be there for me all through out. 

“Making memories with friends is not a waste of time. Its a lifetime moment that will surely treasure when a old age comes.”
