She was once that naïve child. She doesn't know how the world will change her over time.All she knew back then was to enjoy every moment of her life. No problems, No homework to answer, No expenses to think of and she is the definition of a carefree spirit. All she has was her imaginary friends and her imaginary toys and of course her imaginary world.

Then in an instant too, it changed. She became this person that she wasn't prepared to be. A person that she never expected and imagined.

Becoming mature and immature at the same time.

ELEMENTARY JOURNEY

She undergo a lot of changes in her life. She was born in Dumaguete City but she only live there for four years. Her family decided to go back to Northern Cebu in which her mother was born and raised. It was a different sorrounding for her. Imagine a life from city to a province - but she was a child back then she doesn't know what was happening.

She studied in Sagay Elementary School and got accelerated once. Unfortunately her family decided to reside in Mandaue City so her life was shift again.

Year 2003

Was the year she can't forget. She was studying in Tipolo Elementary School as a Grade 3 student but it was also the same year that she almost lost her father.

She was used to being picked up by her mother after school but in that certain day she was waiting there for a long time. Without patience and with a little bit of fear because she is new there she decided to go home by herself. She doesn’t have money to pay for a ride so she decided to walk when it started to rain but it never stopped her to go home. On her way home she has this mixed emotions as if something happened, she waited until night and her mother was home but then their place was already flooding.

It was a very unfortunate incident for her but her mother is a strong woman and didn't give up. As well as her father, he lived because he knew that he still have to support and finish his mission her on Earth.

Year 2004

When the doctor said that her father is not allowed to live in the city. He should be in the province and away from a polluted area, he should be in a clean and fresh sorroundings. She transferred school again and it was hard for her to cope up because it only means that she needs to adjust again. Not just adjusting because of teachers and school but how about her friends? She doesn't have a permanent friend at all or a best friend she can talk to. All are just temporary as she knew that her life was temporary.

Year 2005

Her father decided to live in Northern Cebu again. There was a lot of challenges for her. Her and her dad alone in that quiet house and those were the time that her faith and strength got tested.

A girl without a mother to guide it is pretty tough for her. At the very young age she already know how to wash clothes and cook since no one can do that for her.

Year 2006

She's back in Mandaue City and she is the typical province girl. Her life is a roller coaster ride, no permanent address, no permanent friends, and she has some trouble getting along with some kids.

Her Elementary years are full of heartaches and adventures that actually mold her of what she is right now. There were times that she feels like she is not needed in this world, for her she is insignificant. Was so thankful there are those people that brought her up and not pushing her down.

HIGH SCHOOL JOURNEY

Year 2007-2011

Life taught her differently this time. She doesn't want to transfer again so she studied in CNHS from 1st year until fourth year.

She's not that intelligent for a girl who actually part of the lowest section in class. But I guess it is her destiny to be known in school and joined some contest. She was too amazed when she was able to place 3rd in a Math competition against the 1st section.

She met different kind of people and fortunately found a best friend.

This is the year that is very crucial for teens.

This is the bracket where they are very curious to the things they never did before. She was once confused what to follow and what is wrong and right. Kids in her school often those what we called cool kids now, cool kids means those who smoke to death, cutting classes, have a unhealthy relationship, joining sororities and fraternities.

Thankfully, her mother was pretty strict. She has rules to follow at home and if she don’t wanna get a spank she needs to follow it. She grew up being afraid of her mom and each time she feels like there was something missing inside her.

She’s not confident to everything. She is afraid to talk back and ask and that trait affected her all throughout her journey. They said that sometimes in life you are on top but mostly she is there below. She learned something from those experiences tho.

COLLEGE LIFE

Year 2011-2015

This is where she fully understand how life works. It is not just about being dependent and being immature. This is the real thing and she needs to be strong.

When she graduated high school most of her neighbor told her that she can’t finish college but instead she’ll just end up getting pregnant. Those were harsh statements and she wanted to prove them wrong.

She was lucky enough to passed the entrance examination in one of the prestigious university in Cebu- Cebu Normal University. There was a cut-off of 100 students in that certain major only. She was thankful that she actually passed and was able to study in that university.

Her journey this time is hard since she needs to study and passed all her subject. It wasn’t easy and there was the time in her life that she decided to drop a subject because it was way too hard. Thankfully she didn’t do it or she will definitely can’t graduate with her batch.

Graduating college was her goal and now she already done it. Not because she was smart but because she was hardworking and diligent.

But the journey didn’t stop there instead it was just the beginning. . .

LET BOARD EXAMINATION

The greatest fear of all.

Who wouldn’t be scared of this board exam? She prepared it so much and after taking it she was always in fear since she admit it was way too hard. She was waiting for how many months of the result and at lasttttttt.

While attending Jesus Reigns the result was out. She was so thankful that she passed it and so her fear was gone and only a grateful and thankful heart was there.

She can’t wish for anything more. . . Aside from good health for her and her family.

She is still far from being what she want to be.
