Cora Doloroso Career Centre

CDCC

Cora Doloroso Career Centre is the place where u wanna be!


  My college experience was a mostly positive one, I learned so much during my time there, and I am not just talking about the course I studied. The best thing to come out of college for me was that I learned a lot about myself, college was really a journey of self discovery for me.
  Cora Doloroso Career Centre has been guided by its noble task to improve every aspect of an individuals personality, to have confidence, independence, and motivation necessary to succeed.

Angelo Tomas Reyes...a good man...

   Days before he committed suicide, Reyes pleaded to the public not to drag his family into the corruption scandal that is rocking the Philippine military. But his suicide, as far as I’m concerned, settled the question on whether he was guilty of receiving millions of pesos from a payola taken from kickbacks and other corrupt practices in the military.
  Spare his family? Didn’t Reyes  think of them before he pocketed those millions? Didn’t his family, particularly his wife, think of their good name and Purificacion before they spent those monies and lived allegedly luxurious lives?


  We Filipinos are a forgiving people —  forgiving to a fault. We sweep problems like this under the rug when somebody as important as Reyes dies. Do not speak ill of the dead. The dead, no matter what they did in life, deserve respect.  I agree. But this culture of forgiveness, of burying our sense of justice along with the corrupt departed, is what makes our country such as sorry place.
  Before we speak, perhaps we need to look at ourselves and put ourselves into the shoes of those who we want to criticize because every word that comes from our mouth tells something about us..We can be judgmental, or a critic that may either bring peace or ignite chaos by believing people's words without exercising good judgment..Do we know what really happened? NOOOO!!We just heard people talk and talk and allow them to convince us that one person is bad when they themselves may be worse!!!

RH bill

    The Reproductive Health Bill, popularly known as the RH Bill, is a Philippine bill aiming to guarantee universal access to methods and information on birth control and maternal care. The bill has become the center of a contentious national debate. The bill is highly controversial, with experts, academics, religious institutions, and major political figures both supporting and opposing it, often criticizing the government and each other in the process. The issue is so divisive that at one point, the Catholic Bishops Conference of the Philippines threatened to excommunicate the President, Benigno Aquino III if he supported the bill.




   Much has been written about the Reproductive Health bill and much has been argued for and against it, however, not all has been said. However, natural family planning has been practiced since time began and it has never been effective. We have to admit that sex is probably one of the strongest forces on earth and is in us—and it is almost always impossible to control. In the advent of poverty, price increases, STDs, AIDs and other crisis, we need to help our people, especially those on the lower end of the financial ladder, take care of their family by not having too many children too soon too fast and we can’t do that with the natural method because that method has failed over and over and over again. The reproductive health bill not only gives us a choice of which contraception is best for us—it prevents couples from having too many children whom they can’t feed, too many children whom they will leave to die in malnutrition, too many children who will not have an education. God may have told us to procreate but I’m sure he did not mean this way. Contraception is not a sin but having 10 kids and not being able to feed them and take care of them is more than just a sin—its violation of human rights and a child’s right. I know a poor family of 8 children. 2 died because of sickness and malnutrition. It broke my heart, made me angry. No child should ever have to experience that. think about it. Its more a sin to do that to a child than to be responsible parent by deciding for contraception.

about myself...

   Sometimes it is hard to introduce yourself because you know yourself so well that you do not know where to start with. Let me give a try to see what kind of image you have about me through my self-description. I hope that my impression about myself and your impression about me are not so different. Here it goes.


   I am a person who is positive about every aspect of life. There are many things I like to do, I like to dream; I like to talk, I like to listen. I like to sing. I like to dance. I like to be surrounded by people and I like to laugh.


   Within these years, I have been given the freedom to explore the world in order to satisfy my curiosity toward all the strange and wonderful things in the world around me. My family has sacrificed a lot to bring me to place where I now stand. Throughout these years, my family especially my parents always stood by me as I tried to find a forte in life. I belong to a stable family which has helped me in pursuing my passions for committed research in education. Even though, many people are of the opinion that failure is their best friend but for me, failure is my bane. I am not ashamed to admit that I am afraid of failure. This trepidation of failure to me is an attribute that is necessary for success. A person who is in tune with his emotions has control over his life and accomplishment. I build my own path and flow of my future education.
