  The beginning of the year is a fantastic time to review objectives and make positive changes. Saving money is something I often take for granted, so this year I made the decision to focus on it. Back then, I often spent on unnecessary things, so my savings were always short when there was a sudden need. This year, I understood the importance of being careful with money, not only for security but to reach my dreams. To accomplish my goal of saving, I will plan carefully.I start by making a monthly budget to keep tabs on my expenses and identify areas for savings. Second, I'll set up a different savings account and contribute a portion of my monthly paycheck to it. Lastly, I'll learn to prioritize the things that are vital and refrain from purchasing items that aren't necessary. I know this process will not be easy. There are temptations and times when I may struggle to control spending. But I'm determined to stay disciplined and remember why I'm doing it. By the en...

During this quarter, I have learned a lot about HTML, especially the importance of tags like the break rule, which is denoted as <br>, horizontal rule as <hr>, and various formatting tags. The tools helped me understand how to enhance text alignment using attributes and add background colors for aesthetic appeal.  However, I faced problems in my process, especially when working with tags for HTML images. Sometimes, the images did not appear correctly in my file, and I was frustrated and delayed by this. This taught me to be more precise with file paths and to double-check syntax to avoid mistakes. I asked my friends and classmates for help to overcome these problems. They gave me some guidance and also shared tips, such as ensuring that the paths to image files were correctly linked and that there were no typographical errors. Collaboration with them solved my problems and also strengthened my understanding of the concepts. I will keep on practicing and exploring HTML t...
