Deriving reflections from the previous year becomes an inevitable part of starting this new year. It is important to seek lessons from the past to develop a more insightful understanding of what lies ahead. Some members of the PCCian community did their respective contemplations as to how 2020 was and took to writing for the expression of their thoughts.
Filipinos are known to be hospitable. They give recognition to their country with great loyalty. However, deep inside, we can see the dissenting poverty. Shown on the faces of the children is vulnerability, but still, we stand and continue to work on our duties and responsibilities.
Sheila Beninsig, 12C-STEM
Empty words, empty promises,
Far up above, away from the noise,
All that is left is silence
And indifference.
Hiraya Marcos, 12B-HUMSS
I found a treasure. It lets me feel no pressure. When difficulties knock on the door, I say I have a treasure. What treasure? The Filipino spirit is my treasure.
Hazel Chua, 12A-ABM
The roaring applause of Taal invited the new year. The closing of doors for 308 days led to a deterioration in the economy's GDP. Birthday bash reminded us that equality and justice was and would never be served. The viral video spread for all the wrong reasons, resembling May 25 of Minneapolis. Woke up to a magnitude of 6.3 alarm clock during Christmas morning to end alarm 2020. Oh, what a year!
Eunice Lao, 12B-ABM
Our days have sunk into hellish depths,
As illness conjured its way to our breaths
Along with it came the long lonely nights,
Alone in our homes succumbing to fright
Yet faith does not dwindle even without light,
As our hearts beat to another day’s fight.
Keanu Sy, 12C-STEM
Coronavirus, an unexpected guest of 2020. Expensive face masks, alcohol out of stock, social distancing, and quarantine at home. Medical personnel fighting to chase back patients’ lives. Let us all salute them, the heroes and warriors of our country.
Susan Tan, 12A-ABM
“I-contact” is not the same as eye contact, yet we make do with G-meet, FaceTime, and whatever else there is. But still, we long for what comes after, and what used to be.
Michelle Zhang, 12A-ABM
Can you see us through your tilted window? Oh, looking up, you look just like Marie-Antoinette. It reminds me of the masque of the red death. People dying while the royals dance in luxurious halls. Well, it is just fiction, right?
Chan, Yan Hei, 12C-STEM
