The real stories under shy

They tell me, people who writes are often sad..

Is this why I am writing? Perhaps. But, the purpose of this blog is to write my biography.

Hey, if you are not interested. You still have time to exit.

My version  of life is very typical. I wont tell you I am different at all. Because Im one with the hypes, I am one with the people who follows. I am no leader at all.

I grew up in the province, but I managed to escape the life given to me. At the age of 13, I learned how to travel away, of course not in a very independent way. I was adopted for a year by my aunty and finished my high school somewhere in North. But I tell you, its almost 10 hours away from home.

That experience I must say was a milestone in my life, I learned there the basics. The things I know I wont learn in any textbooks or novels. The experience of being away, and making decisions at your own. The experience of being deprived but happy because it benefits the other. I know, being selfless is not a way for it but that is the best that I can describe it. Let me put it this way, we had some financial issues and emotional too, in my situation. I am the first child, and the only girl in the family, I have 4 younger brothers can you imagine that? Drama is not an option to our family at all! My father was a simple janitor turned to security guard, and jobless and went back to security guard.

That jobless period of his life moved me away from home to North. After a year in the North, I managed to pass the entrance exam in PUP, which is the only university I ever applied and had a chance to enroll. But I tell you, the chances are very risky. My parents, unfortunately, discourages me to continue education because of our situation which hurts me before, a lot. Who wouldnt want their child to dream bigger than she think she can ever be of? Financial reasons, yes. I am well aware of what I am into right now. Many people said I will never make it! Like after a year or two I will go home like a looser. People thinks so much of themselves and become fortune tellers right? But they made me brave! To be honest, my college education wasnt beautiful at all. I have days that I ate canned foods/packed noodles for the whole week and worst, nothing at all. But that was never a reason for me not to go to school. I have my friends who packed extra foods from their home and give to me and I have this strategy of living near, so that just in case i will have my worst days, I can still go to the school. Even though in reality, the bedspaces near the school isnt comfortable at all. You heard it right, I am living alone and renting together with other people who are dreaming of getting a diploma in the most attainable way we can. I am not alone I know, I got lucky I found myself a university that accepts people like me and even had a chance to apply scholarship. I was sponsored by Kabataan Partylist, that made me afford the books I needed! My tuition before only costs almost 1k per semester, and I receives around 8k per sem. That means I have 2 months allowance for free! To pay my rent I became a student assistant also, and a Service crew in Jollibee. But that crew life doesnt last long because of my asthma which started when I was young. Sick, little bitch.

I graduate college in 2016, and my first job was a call center job in Eastwood. My diploma says I am a finisher of Bachelor in Business teacher education Major in Information Technology. Well, it doesnt matter because I loved my job and they were very considerate. In my 12 months of stay, 1 month of it I spent on studying for my licensure examination, and with His grace I passed. To be honest with you all the best part of working is the experience of earning, I dont want it to stop! This is it, I told myself. This is the job I want until I grow up! But hell yeah, I resigned after a year cause i found a beter job. From being a call center agent, I became an IT Analyst in one of the known International IT industry, Hewlett Packard Enterprise. Right now I am a part time College/SHS Instructor in a Private College in Quezon City and a full time staff in HPE. Why I am sad? Thats another topic for another time. Let me tell you next time.

Thanks for reading my story, I know somewhere out there I am not alone. If you have challenges in life right now, remember not to give up and keep your shit with yourself. The moment you give up, you become a loser. And tell you what, its ok to be loser, sometimes. But dont abuse it, you might get stuck there!

Gracias, mi amor.
