Valentine's Day is a day of love and affection, commonly linked to romantic relationships but also to friendships and family ties. It is said to have been derived from St. Valentine, a person known for his acts of love and compassion. It has, over the years, become a day when individuals show appreciation to their loved ones through gestures such as presenting them with gifts, writing them letters, or spending time with them. We observe Valentine's Day to remind us of the significance of love in our lives. It is a day to appreciate, establish relationships, and be kind. Either through grand acts or small acts of kindness, it's a day that reminds us of love in any form or shape. 

Reflection (Quarter 3)

During the third quarter in ICT 10, I learned about HTML, CSS, and basic web development, which helped me understand how to create and design websites.

Moving forward, I will continue improving my coding skills, exploring new techniques, and applying what I have learned to create better and more functional web pages.
