     As the fourth quarter comes to an end, I have gained valuable knowledge about creating a homepage using FrontPage. I learned the basic steps in designing a homepage, such as adding text, images, and links. This experience has helped me understand how web pages are structured and how important it is to make them user-friendly and visually appealing.      During this quarter, I faced some challenges, especially in formatting and organizing the elements on the page. At first, I found it difficult to align text and images properly, and sometimes, my design did not look the way I wanted it to. I also had trouble making sure that all links worked correctly.      To overcome these challenges, I practiced more and explored different tools in FrontPage. I also asked for help from my teacher and classmates when I encountered problems. Through patience and continuous learning, I was able to improve my homepage design and gain confidence in my sk...

         Fifteen years from now, I see myself as a nurse, helping people and making a difference in their lives. I want to work in a hospital, taking care of patients and giving them the support they need.

I believe in myself and my dreams, and I will do my best to achieve them.

     It's the month of March, a month for Women. It is an opportunity to recognize women for their contributions to society. The theme this year is "WE for Gender Equality and an Inclusive Society," emphasizing the commitment to work towards making this world a fair and welcoming place for everyone. Gender equality means the same rights, opportunities, and respect for men and women. It is about ensuring nobody suffers discrimination based on gender. There should be equal opportunities given to everyone in schools, workplaces, and communities to thrive.      An inclusive society recognizes all people irrespective of gender, background, or abilities. Inclusion means ensuring everyone feels safe, respected, and heard. We create a stronger, happier community by making spaces where people are accepted for who they are. Supporting gender equality and inclusion starts simply-with learning, fighting discrimination, and encouraging women and girls in their goals. ...
