FOOD REVIEW
Sweet and sour pork
Sweet and sour dishes originated in China during
the Tang Dynasty (618-907) where these foods
were being served in the menus at the time.
These dishes were invented by Chancellor Wei
Juyuan when he hosted the Emperor at his
house. Traditionally, the sauces were made by
mixing sugar or honey with a sour liquid such as
vinegar, soy sauce, and spices such as ginger and
cloves.
Several different versions were made in different
regions like East Asia, Europe, and Southeast Asia.
These differ from the preparation of the sauce to
the types of meat used. Some would use the
sauce as a dipping while others use it as part of
the whole dish. In the Philippines, these sauces
are called agre dulce or Filipino sweet and sour
sauce. It is made by mixing cornstarch with
water, salt, sugar, and a tangy ingredient; tomato
ketchup, banana ketchup, or pineapples. The
mixture is then brought to boil then simmered
until it thickens.

Mobile Phones Make People Antisocial
Over the past years, mobile phones have become a
necessity in today's generation and appear to be an
extension of the body. It has advanced into a valuable
tool for many uses, including communication,
entertainment, business transactions, etc. Along with
the development of mobile phones, social media apps
such as Facebook and other entertainment
applications were also developed. Having a
smartphone is highly beneficial because it enables
global communication, phone calls, text messages, and
enjoyment such as mobile games. It has become a
daily necessity due to its popularity and accessibility.
Using a phone too much may negatively impact
individuals' social behavior and affect their mental
health. According to the study of Clairmont & Bernice

ABSTRACT
Online Gaming: Impact on the Mental Health of
the students of Saint Louis University
Laboratory High School - Senior High
Online gaming has become part of adolescents' daily lives,
especially during this pandemic; however, they engage in this
recreation without knowing that there are instances where
online gaming can affect their mental health. Previous studies
only used a descriptive research design that focused on the
effects of online gaming on students' academic performance.
According to Zamani et al. (2009), playing online games can
benefit players; however, long-term playing can result in
several mental issues such as tension, restlessness, and anxiety.
Therefore, this study seeks to determine if online gaming
significantly affects students' mental health. The researchers
will use the descriptive correlational design to determine the
relationship between online gaming and mental health. A 5-
point Likert scale questionnaire will be distributed to 200
grade 11 students through Google Forms for the data collection
and gathered data will be analyzed using Pearson's R
statistical technique. This research is only limited to the
mental health of SLU-LHS Grade 11 students, which do not
represent the entire senior high population. The study will
benefit students to increase their awareness of the relationship
between online gaming and mental health. Future researchers
who want to conduct similar studies can also utilize the
findings of this study.

such as depression and anxiety, can affect your ability to
