  I can say that I learned a lot this third quarter and I gained knowledge on different topics in ICT. Information about Community based research, what are the things you need to know in order to do the activities correctly. I found these lessons challenging, but thankfully I was able to cope up. There were bumps and problems that I encountered, but I was able to pull through. So, I will strive harder and be more focused as we move on to the next grading period. I know that I can still improve myself and try not to settle for less. It might be hard and challenges will keep coming, these are inevitable, but by working hard I know that I can overcome these problems. I will develop the knowledge I gained in this quarter and continue to work hard. I am looking forward for the next and final quarter, to discover and learn new things that surely will help me to achieve my goal and lead me to the right path.
