I can say that ICT is an interesting subject. This st a nds for "Information and Communication Technologies." ICT refers to technologies that provide access to information through telecommunications . It is similar to  Information Technology  (IT), but focuses primarily on communication technologies. This includes the Internet,  wireless networks, cell phones, and others.   Nowadays, we are sorrounded by lots of machines and different equipments that are products of the modern technology.  Marvelous progress has been made in science and technology in the last century.

Filipino's Resiliency

As we all know the Philippines is located at the Pacific Ring of Fire and near the West Basin. This is the reason why there are lots of calamities that the Filipino people are experiencing. Typhoons, floods, volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, and tsunamis are the most dangerous calamities that are occurring in the Philippines. But despite of these calamities Filipinos still manage to smile, a sweet and genuine smile. In the year 2013, at the month of November, super typhoon Yolanda strikes the City of Tacloban.

Ang Wikang Filipino ay kilala bilang pambansang wika ng Pilipinas. Halos lahat ng Pilipino ay ginagamit ang wikang ito sa pakikipagkomunikasyon. Ngunit sa paglipas ng panahon ay umuusbong ang iba't ibang mga salita na hindi angkop sa pakikipagtalastasan. Minsan may mga Pilipino na ring gumagamit ng lenggwahe ng ibang bansa dahil mas may alam pa sila dito kesa sa wikang Filipino. Ngunit hindi naman natin maiiwasan ang paggamit ng ibang lenggwahe lalo na kung mga banyaga ang ating kausap. Kung kaya't dapat nating hikayatin ang ating kapwa Pilipino na pahalagahan ang wikang atin dahil sabi nga ni Rizal, "Ang hindi marunong magmahal sa sariling wika ay higit pa sa malansang isda." Sa taong ito, ang tuon ng tema ng Buwan ng Wika ay ang wika ng saliksik. Ang saliksik ay ang  sistematikong pagsusuri o pagsisiyasat ng isang paksa, pangyayari, at iba pa. Mahalaga ang wika ng saliksik dahil ito ang nagiging daan upang makakuha ng mga kaalaman patungkol sa mga bagay ba
