Event: biking

Place: kablon

I'm Jeryl Mark Tarre 12-GAS/HUMMS Studying at ST. LORENZO SCHOOL OF POLOMOLOK INC. my hobbies are sleeping And cycling I'm only 17yrs old And Dreaming to become a Police e Officer.

My worst moment of my life and hardest and were I’m down is when we go to kablon in Polomolok using our bicycle that day, it’s very hot and steel road. First we go in 711 and vote for our destination all of us agree to go in kablon. After that we ride our bikes in kablon.

After we go in our destination, all of us decided to stay because we were gonna take a picture of the kablon view and take a break because we are tired of riding our bike. We meet a lot of bikers, stranger, etc . We detect a scent of a yummy food that surround us so we decide to go in calenderia to eat something.

We fill our hungry stomach with some rice, soups of pork, coke, and wate, the pastil are delicious and the soups of pork. After eating we rest a little bit to get a energy . Then the night has come so we go home because it’s late, as we ride our bicycles we slowly go home.

the air is very cold and its so dark we cannot see the road that’s why we use some flashlight and flashlight of the phone. we continue to go our houses.

The police officer see us and the police officer said something to us , he said go home Now kids it’s late already and I said okay sir thanks for the worrying us after that we walked out to go home, me and my homies talked each other while biking so that it’s not gonna be a boring journey after that We managed to go in our houses in 7pm that’s the tiring, hardest part of my life. After that day I'm practicing my stamina to get better in any roads.

Home will never be the same

“You only realize the worth of something when it’s gone”, that quote plays an important role behind the meaning of the various painful happenings in my life. I was raised in a privileged setting, not everyone can say they were born and raised abroad and I do believe that I had opportunities people are willing to die for. My parents sacrificed a lot just to be able to make a living outside of the Philippines. Hong Kong an “Asian tiger”, an outstanding city that homes many people with many dreams was what I called home. I lived in Hong Kong for about 13 years. I adapted the Chinese culture, I learnt the basics in Cantonese language, and I had access to a lot of convenience. Before I moved to the Philippines. I used to live a mindset that nothing drastic could change my life because I was so contented, I didn’t want change, I didn’t need change and I was genuinely happy with my life. But when my parents mouthed the words “Jay, we’re moving back to the Philippines.” I felt like time had stopped.

It was hard, I couldn’t accept the fact that I had to leave the comfort of home I have had for 13 years yet alone be separated with the people that I love. I can say that was the lowest point of my life at the time, but lesson learned. Time moves fast and we learn how to grow with the scars that make us who we are. I met new people and I had a grip of life again but deep down inside me a part of my soul remained home sick for years. Without the support of my friends here in polomolok, I would’ve probably been the same Jay crying oceans wondering why my life had to turn upside down. I owe my recover to my best friends. I owe my healing to them. As a resident in Hong Kong, a requirement has to be fulfilled for all residents residing outside of Hong Kong. You must be Able to travel back in Hk within a 3-year window or else your residency would be cut off. It was around April 2022, my stay in Philippines would be near its third anniversary which dates on July 26 2022, the same date I left Hong Kong in 2019. The pandemic was at a rampage. The travel restrictions, the rise in cases and the fact that I had to travel alone made those months the most stressful moment I had ever encountered as a 16-year-old. The stress was unbearable but worth it because the excitement of getting to travel back and heal my home sickness would pay up for it so to me it was worth everything but yet again the universe had tested my patience. I was diagnosed positive with the covid virus before the day of my flight. I remember it all so clearly like it had just happened yesterday. It was a travel requirement to have a pcr test done within 24 hours before my flight and I didn’t feel sick at all and I had no symptoms so of course I felt sure that the results would come out negative. I experienced what you call Deja vu, a familiar feeling with a familiar happening. It reminded me of the exact time my parents told me 3 years ago that I had to say bye to the life I loved. I felt my blood rushed down to my knees when the nurse told me I was positive for covid. I can still picture the face of worry my mom had and it surely made me question why the universe had played me so dirty. Now at 16, I can say that, it really did win first place as the lowest point in my life. I silently cried in the car as we drove back home, I downplayed my worth a lot and blamed myself for the things I had no control over. The ignited excitement I had, diminished into nothing but disappointment. I felt so bad for my parents, they did so much to make this possible for me and I felt like the biggest black sheep in the family for causing them so much trouble. But with the reassurance that my mom gave me, I felt comforted in a way that reminded me of what I needed to do and that was draw strength in order to revive an optimistic mindset. It was hard but I focused on what made me happy in order to heal from all the pain that these mishaps had caused me. I studied hard, I read books, and I found happiness in the presence of my own company. And as the days went by, I had healed from the pit of sadness I was being buried in but no matter how much I tried to be optimistic the day I feared came by once again, it was a rematch between me and my trauma. I got tested again for covid before I could fly back and with glee, I received negative results. The luggage I had was already collecting dust as my trip was delayed by a month but I am proud to say I travelled alone at 16 during a pandemic.

With full honesty, that was truly the highlight of 2022 for me and I live life today remembering the values of being patient and resilient because if I didn’t work on my own healing, I wouldn’t learn the importance of all those hardships that molded me to be the person I am today. At times we forget how crucial it is for us to accept our fallbacks and because of that we tend to victimize ourselves for the things that we completely have no control over. There is always a bigger picture, there is always a tomorrow filled with obstacles, and if we don’t learn to embrace our pain, we won’t grow to be better versions of ourselves. I can now say that I’m proficient in being patient. My story reminds us all that our desires will come to us in the right time.

My worst moment in my life and the Hardest and were I’m down is when we go To Maasim, Saranggani Province using a Bicycle that day is Hot as Hell, First we planned it and make a poll for our next destination and most of us vote Maasim, We meet at the Shell Gasoline Station at 3:30am and Left at 4am, First I thought that I can handle this because I feel great and the Air is cold and there is no Sun, Our first stop over is in The Arc of Saranggani And we Rest for a Few minutes before we continue our journey, When we reach the steep part of the Road I slowly feel the Road is Changing From a straight road to a Steep road.

We ate at a small store for our breakfast and it’s already 8am and then we rest and prepare to go home. As we rode to go home we slowly feel the heat of the raging sun and we wore our Arm sleeves to protect us from the sunlight as we continue our journey we feel like the sun is roasting us, The Heat and the steep road Plus the dehydration is a total chaos, The first Part of our Going home adventure was Not really hard because of the coconut trees that Covering us from the Sun and the Flat road When we reach our First Checkpoint at Sunan’s Beach.

And we continue to go home and after 8hrs from 4am to 1pm we finally manage to get home safe and sound And That’s my Lowest, hardest and Tiring part of My Entire life.

The end. <33

When I was in 9th grade, I experienced the lowest part of my life. It started early in the morning at St. Lorenzo School of Polomolok, Inc. I am getting ready to go to school and I am packing my things for the reason that I know that today will be a busy day. I am an eager beaver student and I do not like procrastinating. Every time an assignment or project is given to me, I do it right away for the reason that I do not like doing things in cram. Doing things in a rush will not result in a good assignment or project. Many activities were given, and I am doing my best to finish all of the activities. Many of my activities are still not finished, and I still have a lot of ground to cover.

The day that I experienced the lowest part of my life was the day that I got caught cheating on a quiz. It is not just a normal quiz for the reason that it is a 100-point quiz. That day was the worst day of my 9th-grade life. The class started in the morning, and I was not expecting that something bad would happen to me in the afternoon. The first subject started and felt like a normal school day. All my classmates are busy doing their assignments at school. Many of my classmates copycat my assignments for the reason that they think my answer is right. I'm really not confident with my answers in the assignment, but I let them copy my homework. Time passed and the morning classes were over. I went home to eat, and after I finished eating, I brushed my teeth, and I went back to school. The afternoon classes started, and I did not notice that most of my classmates were studying. I just used my cellphone and waited until the first subject in the afternoon class started. The first subject has started, and I am surprised that there is a quiz that will happen today. I am surprised and did not expect it. My heart is beating so fast and I panic for the reason that I did not study. So, I asked my seatmate if he studied, but he also did not study. I did not know what to do until an idea came into my head. I did the thing that made my 9th-grade life worse. I cheated by using my cellphone to answer the problems and questions. At first, I hesitated to cheat, but my seatmate also wanted to pass the quiz, so I did it. This happens when your mind is in a panic and you can’t think clearly take the risk just to pass the quiz for the reason that it is a 100-point quiz. As I use my cell phone to look for answers, my seatmate acts as a lookout and signals to me if the teacher is looking. By the time we almost finished the quiz, the teacher noticed that I was doing something suspicious. My seatmate did not notice that our teacher was on the way to us for the reason that he was busy writing the answers. When the teacher caught me, I felt so awkward for the reason that I was still holding my phone and looking at my teacher's face. I got caught and punished for the sin that I committed.

I took all the wrongdoing and did not include my seatmate. I got zero scores on the quiz and regretted what I did. I feel so embarrassed and my body feels so weak. I was dazed for a bit, thinking what I did was so stupid. I learned a lesson that no matter what happens, do not cheat for the reason that it has the consequence that you have to pay. I have learned that it is better to lose with honesty and dignity than to win by cheating.

“A Night to Be Stronger”

Everybody has their own experience in life and it can be a good ones or bad ones, but most of the time or most of us experience unimaginative scene in our life that delivered us to asked ourselves why do we have this kind of life? And, why me? There is a lot of people out there. To finally begin the story of my other side, I am that kind of person that think the family first than myself and because of that, sometimes or most of the time I need to give up the opportunity that will make me over the moon. On the night of September 10th 2022, a famous band performed at the municipal plaza because that specific day is the F’lomolok festival that we celebrate every year in the municipality of Polomolok. I really want to go and enjoy the event but unfortunately, I can’t so I went to a room where I sleep and focused on my phone, hearing my brother and cousins gushing and preparing to go to the event I felt jealous, they ask me to come, they force me but I refuse since I need to take care of my nephew and I need to save money. While lying in the bed and scrolling through social media my tears poured out, I felt lost and I’m thinking too much that my head would explode anytime because of the tiny jealousy, the problem about financial, the feeling of pity towards my older sister since she’s away from us and seeing my mother buckling down to provide food at the table. That experience put me at the lowest part of my life and made me asked myself a bunch of why’s. After that day specifically that night I came back to my normal self, the usual Roxy in the house.

We have different ways of dealing the problems that comes to our life. For my case in this situation I dealt with it like a child that keeps crying but once it has her milk its stop in a level up form of it. So when the night gone and the morning comes I woke up like nothing happened the night before and move on. I won’t share it and keep it for myself since I don’t want to give another stress or problem to my family especially to my parents because they have their own problem that they need to focus on. To think I don’t really share my problems to my family since grade three because I don’t want to be scolded out and up until now that I’m a senior student in this institution. Moving on and putting my interest to other things are one of my coping process because by distracting myself will allow me to lessen my problem. It also gives me to focus more in my academics and gives me time to find more interesting things to do in the internet or I’ll just watch series.

To conclude this all, we may have suffer and experience unfortunate things in life. This may bring you to your lowest part of your life but at the end of the day you know to yourself that you need to face it and solve it because you’re the one will benefit it. Life is like a math problem, it’s hard to the point that you’ll cry but if you will follow the pattern or formula you’ll be there and finish it. So don’t be afraid to face your problem and don’t keep it to yourself unlike me, share it to your family or trusted friend that willing to listen to you.

The End.

Hello and a good day to everyone! My name is Nicah Calulo Soberano, I am 20 years old, and I am currently studying in senior high school at St. Lorenzo School of Polomolok Inc. At this age, I have gone through many challenges in my life. But I have one thing that I will never forget in my life, and that is the separation of my parents. I was 8 years old at that time, a third-grade student. It was so painful for me to see my parents no longer caring about each other; it hurts to think that I will never see my father's affection for my mother because she is mad HAHAHA, it's hard to accept that I won't be able to experience what I am used to. As a child, what happened was painful for me, and I know their decision was painful for my parents. It was during that time that I learned to work hard for myself. I learned to live by myself, but later I went home to my dad because I needed to study, our house was too sad when mom left with my siblings. I cried at night because I had no one to sleep with. As the days passed, it was time for me to accept that there was no hope for mom and dad to get back together. But the day came when it was more painful for me to choose where we would go home, I wanted to choose both of them, but the attorney said that only one should be chosen, and I had no idea who it would be. But I considered my father's well-being because, if Mom makes her decision, dad will no longer be with me. So, I decided to choose Papa, and I didn't regret it either because he did not abandon me. I am happy with him, and I accept it hundred percent. I am happy for my mom in her life now. Right now, they don't see each other anymore, and they don't have any communication, but they both still support my studies. I'm still here with my dad. My two sisters have families, and I have nieces and nephews. And we are happy. It's very sad because, as a child, you want to experience a mother's love again. It was very difficult to adjust because when I got sick, mom was there to take care of me, but when she left, I had a slight fever and I went straight to the hospital. If back then my mom ironed my uniforms, now I'm the only one who does it. If back then when I woke up there was already food, now I wake up to cook food for my dad's work and my studies. It's a big adjustment, to be honest, but it's necessary if you can handle it because I prefer to have my dad with me. Now that I'm older, I can take care of myself, but I'm still thankful because at a young age I learned a lot, I have a lot of needs to fulfill, and a lot of people made me realize that when it comes to life, if you don't understand your situation, your world will bring you the realization that you don't know what your purpose is. The life you want, even if you reach for the moon, will not come true.

Yay! Another bucket list is unlocked! "Firing"

Let me share you how I started doing this Firing, i was scared of the gun since when I was grade 12 dahil isa ako sa biktima nung binaril ang Teacher ko and ayaw ko makakita ng baril kase nattrauma ako, to make the story short while naga explains si Sir which is one of the Special Forces at Polomolok and siya yung nagaguide saamin on how to hold the gun properly and explaining the rules, at ayun nga di ako mapakali at napapawisan ako and i have so many thoughts and what if's sa utak ko what if pag hinawak ko to mapuputok ba saakin? or pag nagbaril ako may matatamaan ba? parang OA lang hahaha, syempre di ako mapakali daldal lang ako ng daldal always ko sinasabi sa mga kasamahan ko natatakot ako pano ba gawin, and I was so glad na yung mga kasamahan ko they are all cheering me na "kaya mo yan fight your fears, if ma try mo at least na feel mo and na conquer mo yung fears mo" and ayun nag volunteered na ako na ako ang next and pumunta na ako kung saan mag fafiring and ayuuunnn napalaban ko yung fears ko HAHAHAHA. If you want to know it panuorin mo yung video ko kung paano ako maging OA HAHAHAHA.

but wait! I would like to thank Sir for allowing us this kind of Experience your da best talaga! 🥹😂

Ps: In fairness nakaadik mag firing, magttry ako ulet 😂

In My Elementary Days filled with Fun,learnings,and making new friends.A lot of happiness during the christmas together with our beloved Teacher.Otherwise the Best part of elementary is the Joy of recess

Recess was the best part of the day

Recess was the highlight of my elementary school days. It was a time when we could run around, play games, and forget about our classroom work for a while.During recess, I also made many friends, some of whom I am still in touch with today.

Birthdays were always celebrated in class with a party.

Until I'm graduated in Elementary with a outstanding Performance and received scholarship that i Achieved and I'm so happy in that Day together with my friends and family.

In Junior Highschool theirs a lot of adjusting

your self if comes from your academic performance because its not the same to my elementary Days..But those challenges i learned to overcome it. Despite of these Im so thankful because i learned more and I improved my skills and understanding in academic performance.

In short I Graduated In Junior Highschool

At Lumakil Integrated School Year 2021-2022 Because of all challeges I learned a lot and I achieved the outstanding performance in the Junior highschool.

After the graduation my father decided to stay at General Santos City Temporarily. To make the story short he enrolled me at Labangal National Highschool.So now on I am Senior highschool I know that thres a lot of challeges that I will facing to be a Senior highschool But I always granted these oppurtunity to study at Labangal with the support of my father..

For now i have a lot of friends at Labangal and Im so happy to meet them because all times i experience that each of us treated as a one happy family.Thats all my School Journey and Experiences as a Student.

Hi! let me introduce myself first. My name is Sitti E. Gofredo, 16 yrs existing here in this world. In addition, i have 3 brothers, yet we're 4 in total. I'm the only girl born by my mother, but tbh they're more feminine than me hahah, in short they're gay. My eldest brother has a different father but we have a same mother. I only have a few memories with him because he's from his father biological father. I met him first when i was 9, the second time is when i was 13 and they live here that's why i have a few memories, but then they moved in POLOMOLOK that's why me and him stopped communicating again, but then last year 2022 i decided to get him for a reason of he ran away from his father. He lived with me for almost 8 months. and for the background of my 2 younger brother, they're not with me. they're now currently living in BUKIDNON with my tita's and lola due to i can't take care of them, that's why my mother decided to get them and let my tita be their mother for how many years. But yet for all of that struggles, i manage to live alone, to have communication to them, i do call via messenger. And this is my cat, named Ryll. His my only cat that survived to me. at first i thought he's a girl that's why i'm calling him minggay/ nana but then months passed, his balls starting to grow and realized he's a boy. funny right. But then i am so thankful to have him, a caring and loving cat i have. And for the last, this is my favorite scenery. the SUNSET. sunset makes me calm every time i feel tired, and alone. sunset always comfort me. sunset is my zone. sunset always vibes my mood. in short, sunset is my second home.

Ellah Mae Hollero ang aking buong pangalan, Mariyah/Ell/Lai/Ellay ang aking mga palayaw, ngunit ang aking tunay na pangalan sa aking unang birth certificate ay Mariyah Jellah Mae Santos.

Labing-walong taong gulang, pinanganak noong  Junyo 15, 2004, Tuesday and have been alive for 6,758 days, my next birthday will be after 5 Months, 30 Days.

Kasalukuyang  nakatira sa s, Ipinanganak ako sa Taytay Rizal ngunit nang tumongtong ako ng 3yrs old ay lumipat kami sa Mindanao, sa probinsya ng South Cotabato. Ako ngayon ay nakatira sa  probinsya ng Timog Cotabato, Baranggay Poblacion Polomolok, Block 14, Lot 12 San Gabriel Homes.

Ako ay kasalukuyang nasa Grade 12 at nag-aaral sa General Santos Doctor’s Medical School Foundation Inc.

Nagtapos ako ng aking nursery at kinder sa Elim Christian School, Grade 1 hanggang grade 2 ay sa lola ko ako nakatira at nag aral sa Talisay Integrated School sa Surallah South Cotabato, grade 3-4 naman sa Juan Bayan Elementary school at Polomolok Central Elementary School naman sa grade 5-6 at dun nako nakapagtapos ng elementarya, Poblacion Polomolok National High School naman sa aking Junior highschool. Nagtapos ako sa aking elementarya at junior high school na may honor. Palipat lipat din ako ng paaralan dati dahil ako ay pinapatira sa iba't-ibang tiyain,  kaya marami akong kaibigan at medyo sanay na sa pag aadjust ngunit sa tingin ko malaking adjustment na naman ang gagawin ko ngayong taon.

 Ang aking ama ay si Romel Hollero, 48yrs old na at sya ay OFW sa Canada. Ang aking tunay na ina naman ay si Loida Mantes na nakatira sa Cavite. Ang aking stepmother naman ay si Venus Hollero na siyang nagpalaki sa akin at legal wife ng aking ama. Mayroon akong mga kapatid (ate at dalawang kuya) sa unang asawa ng aking tunay na ina, sila ay si ate Maria Liezel Santos, Iyan at Jolo Santos. Sila ay may kanya kanyang pamilya na rin. Mayroon din akong isang ate pa sa dating kasintahan ng aking ama, sya ay si ate Shary Miralles, kami naman ay magkasundo dalawa, at ang  kababatang kapatid ko naman sa step mother ko ay dalawa na kasabay kong lumaki, Roven at Zain ang pangalan.

 I do not remember much of my early childhood, but my mom said I was a very active, curious, and communicative child. I would ask dozens of questions each minute, even without waiting for the answers

Wala akong masyadong matandaan in my early childhood ngunit ang sabi ng aking tunay na ina noong mga 2-3yes old palang ako, ako daw ay aktibo, laging curious, madaldal na bata, aakyat sa upuan habang nakahawak ng kahit anong bagay at biglang kakanta nang malakas habang sumasayaw haha matapang, suplada, laging nang aaway sa kapitbahay na batang lalaki at Patrick daw ang pangalan. Ako daw ay tanong ng tanong, even without waiting for the answers haha. Mahilig daw ako sa mga laruang pang lalake at lahat ng manika ko ay pinuputol ko ang ulo huhu:((

Nang lumipat na ako dito sa Mindanao ay naging ibang bata na ako, madaldal padin naman (hanggang ngayon) at independent. Nag nursery akong nasa malayo ang aking ama, ofw sya sa saudi kaya naman nakatira ako sa step mom ko ngunit medyo strikta ang aking step mom at maliit palang ako ay ako na ang nag aayos para sa aking sarili, pumupunta ako sa paaralan sa nursery na ako lang ang nagsusuot ng medyas, uniform at tali, hindi katulad ng ibang bata na may nag aasikaso pa sa kanilang mama. Lumaki ako na nagiging secretive, hindi masyado nag sh-share kahit sa mga close na pinsan. Kaya habang lumalaki ako, hindi ko maiwasang magalit sa aking tunay na ina kung bakit hinayaan nya lang akong dalhin ng aking ama dito sa Mindanao dahil nagkaproblema sila dati. Ni hindi nya lang man ako hinanap, lumaki ako na wala sya sa tabi ko kaya naman sanay na ako na wala sya at hindi ako babalik sakanya.

Ako naman ngayon ay masayahing dalaga, maldita minsan at suplada daw ang mukha pero huhu mabait naman ako, mahilig parin kumanta at sumayaw, humble at mabait dahil iyan naman ang turo ng aking step mom at daddy, kung ano ako ngayon ay resulta ng kung paano nila ako pinalaki. Isa sa mga best memories ko ay yung nag audtion ako ng The Voice teens dito sa Gensan kahit walang practice, literal na walang practice dahil nung gabing yun before ang mismong audition, 1AM nags-scroll lang ako sa facebook at minention ako ng pinsan ko sa isang post na may audtion daw sa veranza at wala naman sana akong balak ngunit nakita din iyon ng aking ama at chinat nya akong sumali, ayoko sana dahil di ako prepared ngunit kinaumagahan nagulat nalang ako sinundo na ako ng tito ko at pupunta daw kaming veranza, tinawagan pala sya ng aking ama para sunduin muna ako dahil abroad pa si daddy, kaya ayon no choice, on the spot pa ang pagpili ko ng mga kanta, sibrang dami ang nag audition sobra yata 5k pero by God’s grace isa ako sa mga nakapasa kahit walang practice. Sa dinami daming nag audition isa ako sa tinawagan ng abs cbn ngunit hindi ako tumuloy sa flight dahil exam namin noon, sayang, pero at least nakayanan ko kahit walang practice, kaya naman this time ig-grab ko na lahat ng opportunity. Iisipin ko na talaga ang sarili ko at --- Hindi man halata ngunit ako ay maarte sa mga certain na bagay ngunit kinikimkim ko lang ito lalo na kapag nagtatanong ang ibang tao kung maganda daw ba ang gantong suot nila or hindi ngunit ang sagot ko ay laging ‘’ okay lang’’ kahit para sa akin ay hindi maganda huhu ayoko lang na masaktan sila at sinasabihan ko lang sila in other way na hindi maganda at hindi sila masasaktan. Maarte kasi ako sa mga suot,  pag ayoko sa damit nayan di ko talaga susuotin huhu. Ayoko din sa taong bigla akong ichachat pag may kailangan without greetings at hindi nagsasabi ng thankyou, welcome and please, nasany kasi akong laging may ganyan. Ayoko sa tao yung laging nag b-brag at binibring down ang ibang tao.

 Ang paborito ko namang pagkain ay mango float at ang ulam naman ay monggo!

Hindi din ako sporty na tao, ngunit mahilig ako manood ng tournaments like volleyball and E-sports. Mahilig akong manood ng kdrama, kpop, chinese drama and cpop minsan naman thai series. Simple lang naman akong babae ngunit aaminin kong materialistic ako ‘’don’t settle for less’’ kasi ang motto ko. Marami akong gustong gawin sa buhay, mag travel, bumili ng ganto, bilhan ng mga bagay na gusto ng magulang ko, gusto ko sila bilhan ng sasakyan kaya mag aaral ako nang maayos. Gusto kong maging successful sa buhay at mabili lahat ng gusto ko lalo na yung makapunta sa concert at fan meet na vip:)

Dream school  ay ang University of British Columbia sa Vancouver Canada ngunit malayo ang pagtitirhan namin doon dahil kami ay mag m-migrate na pero sa Winnipeg, ayoko muna maging magastos kaya susubukan kong makapasok sa University of Manitoba at doon mag- aaral ng nursing at aviation ngunit habang nag aaral ako ay gusto kong ipursue ang modeling, business dahil habang nag aaral ako gusto ko mag benta hanggang sa makapatayo ako ng sariling shop, thrifting shop para kahit paano ay may kita ako habang nag aaral at music industry, mag cover ng mga kanta o mag audition sa mga contest at bumuo ng sariling reputasyon. Naniniwala naman akong kaya ko ito by the Grace of the Lord, ipagdadasal ko ito lagi and ‘’When the time is right, I the Lord will make it happen.’’ sabi sa Isaiah 60:22. Hinding hindi ko sasayangin ang opportunity na ito at titiyakin kong magiging maganda ang buhay ko sa ibang bansa, alam kong hindi ito madali pero kakayanin ko dahil kasama ko ang Diyos.

The Lord will bless.

Ang Aking Talambuhay

Talambuhay

Eyre Jyne Gines

Maraming nagsabi na dapat nating ikalugod ang ating buhay sapagkat binigyan tayo ng pagkakataon upang mamuhay at Makita ang mundong ginawa ng Diyos para sa atin.

Noong ika-10 ng Mayo ng taong 2004 ipinanganak ako sa isang hospital sa lungsod ng Polomolok, lalalawigan ng South Cotabato. Kwento ng aking ina ay Eyre Jyne ay hindi ang aking naunang ngalan sapagkat nais niya ihango ang aking ngalan sa isang manunulat ngunit hindi sanggayon ang akin ama kaya’t iniba na lamang ito. Isa sa aking mga tiya ang nagmungkahi sa ngalang Eyre at dinugtungan ito ng Jyne sa kagustuhan ng aking ama kaya ako’y pinangalanang Eyre Jyne Gines. Hindi ito kombinasyon ng ngalan ng aking magulang sapagkat ang kanilang pangalan ay Angelyn at Jonathan Cristopher Gines. Madaming tao ay naguguluhan kung ano ang tamang pagbigkas ng aing ngalan kaya’t tinatawag na lamang nila ako sa aking palayaw na Ej.

Hindi malaki ang aking pamilya. Mayroon akong ama, ina at isang bunsong kapatid na lalaki. Maliit ngunit masaya. Naniniwala ang aking magulang na mas maayos ng kakaunti lang kami kaysa naman sa madami ngunit nahihirapang maghanap ng salapi pangkain sapagkat hindi naman kami mayaman.

Nagsimula akong magaral nong ako'y tatlong taong gulang. Nursery ako non at nag aaral ako sa isang Alliance School sa harap ng bahay namin sa Polomolok. Doon ako nagaral hanggang ako'y ay tumuntong ng kinder 1. Naalala kong nagtapos ako roon ng may madaming medalya. Lumipat kami ng bahay nong ako'y 6 na taong gulang sa Tambler, General Santos City at nagpatuloy sa aking pagaaral ng kinder 2 sa Golden Fishers Learning School. Nong ako'y nag 7 taong gulang ay lumipat ulit kami sa Calumpang, General Santos City na kasalukuyan na aming tinitirhan. Nong ako'y nasa Bilang 1, lumipat ako sa Dadiangas West Central Elementary School at doon rin nagtapos ng elementarya. Nong ako'y "high school" ay nagaral ako sa General Santos City National High School simula sa bilang 7 hanggang sa nakapagtapos ako ng bilang 10 sa ilalim ng "curriculum" na Special Program in the Arts. Pinagpatuloy ko naman ang pag aaral ko ng "Senior High School" sa General Santos Medical School Foundation Inc. na hanggang ngayon ay aking paaralan. Kasalukuyan akong nasa bilang 12 na nasa ilalim ng "STEM Strand" may edad na 18 na taong gulang.

I'm Zyryl Rogen Resurreccion, and I'm 16 years old. I attend St Lorenzo School of Polomolok Inc. I'm taking the GAS\HUMSS strand and live in Rosal St, Poblacion, Polomolok, South Cotabato. My hobbies include cycling, traveling, joining races, and playing basketball. When the pandemic covid 19 strikes in 2020, it will be the lowest point in my life. Many individuals have been laid off, and many more are staying at home to prevent the illness. because I experienced sadness that worsened as the lockdown progressed, and throughout that period I learnt to become a vice drinks, cigarettes, and it's as if I'm hooked to alcoholic beverages, which I consume on a daily basis. I was also upset because I couldn't be with my friends, and I missed our laughter.

I was even sadder since I was embarrassed to talk to my parents about my difficulties because they could think I'm acting all fine by hiding it.

And it was around that time that I learnt to skip home since I didn't feel loved by anyone. And my addiction to the vice of the moment worsened because when I couldn't drink alcohol, my issues in life seemed to return, and it wasn't good; I recognized that everything I did and the decisions I made in life were bad. and I hated it as I reflected about my entire life. and I know that it's not too late to start over. I was also incorrect because I did not listen to my parents; I should have taken all of their advise,

and I later learned that everything they said was correct. I am grateful to my parents for guiding me, and everything they said was right. and the only way to get rid of depression is to be happy in what you do and have something to do with your time, such as riding a bicycle. My life was happy when I became a cyclist because I felt the love of my parents, they supported me in my passion, I have achieved a lot in cycling, I have played the game of racing, and I am happy with the outcome of my performance in the race.

and I would want to sincerely thank those who helped me through the ups and downs of my life, and my cycling buddies made my life happier when I met you, and my mum who always counseled me and because I didn't lose my way and because you supported me. And now I am satisfied, and I vow myself that I will not return to my previous bad deeds. I'm glad now since I've seen and bonded with my buddies.
