In Mathematics, I studied permutations and probability, which improved my logical thinking and problem-solving abilities.

More than a national hero, he symbolized intelligence, courage, and peaceful resistance.

Image
  The Christmas season is more than just a festive time filled with decorations, gifts, and cheerful music. At its core, it is a season of love, hope, and reflection. It invites people to pause from their busy lives and remember what truly matters—faith, family, and compassion. Christmas reminds us to open our hearts, forgive past hurts, and share joy with others, especially those who are struggling. One of the most beautiful aspects of Christmas is the spirit of giving. While exchanging presents is a joyful tradition, the deeper meaning lies in giving selflessly. Simple acts such as helping a neighbor, donating to charity, or offering time and support to loved ones reflect the true essence of the season. Christmas teaches that generosity is not about the size or cost of a gift, but about the love and sincerity behind it. The season also strengthens bonds within families and communities. Gatherings, shared meals, church visits, and caroling create moments that bring people clos...

A Child's Safety, Is the Future's Safety

Image
  The 2025 National Children's Month theme calls to help end OSAEC and CSAEM. It draws attention to rising online risks that target children in social networks, chat apps, and gaming platforms. These threats harm the safety  and dignity of the children. They disrupt healthy development and reduce trust in digital environments.
