I am an ordinary Filipino girl. I grew up without a father, because my parents divorced when I was a child. I spent my entire childhood with my mother. She raised me well having discipline and respect to others well. I’m the luckiest daughter to have a mom like her, a brave person and hard-working one. She’s been my inspiration on everything.
Who am I? I'm just a typical kid who loved being in church growing up. I was a fun person and like to talk a lot with family members and I was a ‘why’ type of person. I’ve enjoyed primary school with friends, teachers and wonderful people who made me the incredible person I am. I've enjoyed every trip but I'm not interested in social exposure as I feel better doing things on my own.
Then came my junior high school years. It started out challenging for me but somehow interesting. It was during this time that I started getting into extracurricular activities like the school press conference and tried my hand at creating slogans, editorials, news and sports, and an article. I got involved to music world too, but not that much since I have stage fright. I started to have new friends whom I continue the adjustment stage with, having a 7th grade turn for honors.
As I tackled senior high school journey, I became more academically competitive, leading a group of students on every report, practical research and yes it gave me memorable journey but quite challenging. I took accountancy, business and management. Strand numbers gave me headaches but I was happy knowing that I excelled and started getting scholarships as I prepare myself for college path. During my senior high school years, I tried doing part time jobs to support myself as a student because my mom got shortage in terms of financial matters, despite of those hardships and obstacles I graduated with honor, I’m proud to say that I didn’t disappoint myself though some people around me throwing negative words against me “this lady won’t make it because they can’t send her to college”, for example.
Year 2020 was full of tragedies. I’ve lost my childhood true friend for a reason of suicide. Second, I lost my grandfather who’s one of those great people that truly believes in me and what I am capable of. That was the time pandemic started to rise up and yes, I didn’t do anything but to move forward and continue in life considering that I have goals to fulfill.
Then here comes college life. I’m super excited at first thinking that I’m almost there, my dreams are waiting for me but I’ve realized that. It wasn’t easy. I planned to take up a hospitality management program for this is connected to strand that I took up during my SHS years, but things changed the time I got my CSUCAT Result, 90.92 percentile, and first thought came up my mind was College of Allied Health Sciences. Everything happened and fall into place, I just found myself being interviewed at RT department well maybe, this is for me so I accepted the challenge even I don’t know anything, no single clue about it but I’m always willing to learn.
Where I am now? At the middle of battle being a freshman. It’s indeed difficult, but giving up is not in my vocabulary, I just say, “I came here without anything, I’ll finish having everything, it’s either I top or I pass”. I got new friends whom I can consider as my RT family, kind and considerate professors that I can say they’re my second mother and father. Slowly losing my friends back in high school but it’s fine it is part of growing, less people interfere, the less toxicity it is. Battling with this pandemic and online classes quite difficult because the amount of knowledge we can take is different from face-to-face situation. The enjoyment that leads to laziness, considering not enough sleep or no sleep at all, eating not on time, and it is more risking financial issues. I'm hoping to have face to face classes, try hands on laboratory works, well it’s interesting isn’t it, and looking forward for that.
That’s my story so far. Or at least, what I remember of my story.
So, how does it answer the question of who am I? It doesn’t. It tells you who I have been. I can’t tell who I am or why I’m here. All I know is who I have been and I don’t plan on changing anything soon. All I know is that I want to get that RTRP and MD after my name if God permits, have a stable life so with my parents, and settle peacefully with my own family.
