ONE STEP CLOSER

This quarter, I believe I have learnt from some of the past quarters' blunders that have prevented me from thriving. One thing that I did well, was using my time well in doing my modules. Also, I have found it to be very beneficial that I give myself a time to read the concept notes of the module, I reviewed them before I did the learning task or my homework. Regarding homework, I discovered that using the internet to look things up was quite helpful, especially when no other resources were accessible. ICT class is so interesting and attention grabbing to me. I enjoy ICT class but only when I can totally understand what we're doing and what's going on. So far, I've gained a great understanding about the lessons and skills that I never thought I'd have. I've improved a lot during this quarter, my writing skills and comprehension skills have improved.

Simultaneously, more than 200 additional vaccine candidates are being developed, with more than 60 of them in clinical trials. COVID-19 vaccines that have been given an Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) ...

ELEUTHEROMANIA

There is no doubt that war is an evil one. It is the greatest catastrophe that can befall human beings. There is no doubt that war is a terrible thing. It is the worst disaster that humanity has ever faced. Like the Fall of Bataan, it brings death and devastation, indiscriminate slaughter and butchery, disease and hunger, poverty and ruin in its wake. Thousands of prisoners died from malnutrition, exhaustion, and diseases before reaching the camp during the trek also known as the Bataan Death March. Despite their defeat, the captured soldiers remained strong and emerged as heroes as a result of the battle. The fall of Corregidor was hastened by the surrender of Bataan. However, if the Japanese had not taken this stance, they might have easily overwhelmed all of the US bases in the Pacific. Bataan forced them to slow down, allowing the allies precious time to prepare for subsequent conflicts including the Battle of the Coral Sea and the Battle of Midway. On February 8, 1945, America...
