Real or Bluff? (Week 6)

  https://tinyurl.com/rj5erux6 The Magna Carta for Filipino Seafarers, officially known as Republic Act No. 12021, is designed to protect the rights and welfare of Filipino seafarers while promoting their full employment within local and international shipping . Key provisions include the right to just working conditions, self-organization, fair treatment in maritime accidents, and improved education and training opportunities . The law also emphasizes the establishment of a comprehensive framework governing the operations of marine education institutions, ensuring that Filipino seafarers meet global standards. The law requires maritime academies to make considerable investments in new training facilities, simulators, and other technologies to comply with its provisions . Such requirements may lead these institutions to raise tuition fees to cover these expenses, potentially making maritime education less accessible to average Filipinos who aspire to enter the seafaring profession ...

Disembodied Identity

Image
          While doing the task, it is easy first to maintain my identity as a “stranger”. It’s easier to express thoughts and feelings without fear of judgment. However, it is also difficult as misunderstandings can arise more easily in text-based conversations, which might distort my identity while communicating. The way of constructing my identity, I used the reflection of personality based on experience, mentioning specific questions to connect like-minded individuals, and my values in social circles to express the thoughts of other people.           Well for me, I can say that while doing this task, I have successfully constructed my unique “disembodied” identity. As a student of CMC, the important learnings that I have gained from this activity are the significance of personal information, keeping proper online etiquette, following the rules of social media, being mindful of your tone and language, and avoid engaging in negativity o...

Poetry- A girl who keeps being invalidated (week 4)

  A Girl Who Keeps Being Invalidated In deep shadows, she walks alone, Where whispers weave in hushed tones. A gentle heart, a flickering flame, Yet every word feels like a game. She shares her thoughts, her dreams take flight, But is met with scoffs that dim her light. “Just silly notions,” they all say, As hope withers day by day. The laughter rings, yet she stands still, A yearning soul, a quiet thrill. With every tear, a story hides, Of battles fought and unturned tides. Yet in her core, a strength remains, Like wildflowers amidst the pains. For though they seek to pull her down, A phoenix rises from each frown. “Your voice is small,” they claim with glee, But she knows well, she's meant to be. A tapestry of vibrant hues, Not just a canvas for their views. So let them speak, their words may sting, And yet, within, a tempest springs. For every doubt, they cast her way, She spins her dreams, come what may. In the night, she finds her song, A melody that feels so strong. For in he...

Messy Sky (Poetry)

Image
Messy Sky Blue, red, violet, even orange Pointing its directions at the sky where the stars scatters Stared an hour just to gaze its patterns As if I could reach it beyond my range Different sizes, color, and brightness If you don't understand, it's surely a mess Try to spend a minute and it will tell you what it meant Life is like a messy sky in its zenith Its beautiful if you try to embrace it Like shining and colorful stars had patterns and directions Just like where you are now, it serve you a purpose.
