I don't know how to describe myself. Well, Its not that I don't know who I am. Its more of a happy-go-lucky-but-sometimes-serious person. I experienced a lot and learning from it.
I am a family-oriented person. I can't last a day without seeing them, mama, papa, my bro and my sis. And as an eldest, I felt that I should be responsible enough to take care of my family and take care of my parents when they grow old. I studied hard so that mama and papa will be proud of me. I even worked harder to pass the entrance exam of a State University, para di mahirapan sila mama sa tuition, and thank God I passed it. I took up Bachelor of Science in Computer Science and graduated in 2009. But in the middle of my journey through college, I got pregnant. At first I was so scared, the fact that Im still studying but already bearing a child frightens me. It got 5 months before my mom knew it. Maybe it's mom's instinct and to think, monthers know best.. She was there through pain and all.
Until Zhyle was born on Sept 26. I experienced a lot of things at an early age. Do I regret it? Of course not. I was the one who made the mistake and I'm ready to face it -- that's the motivation I always say to myself. While breastfeeding, I go to work in the morning and go to school at night. And nothing else would compare the feeling of embracing your child after a long tiring day. My kiddo is the best thing that ever happened to me. I never regret having him at an early age. He made me a strong woman. He even brings joy and happiness to my parents. He is my inspiration. He is me.

And now, I would say that I passed that test God gave me. Did I pass it with flying colors? Maybe yes, maybe no. But I don't care. As long as my family is here, and my kid to inspire me.
I dont care what people say, I dont give a damn!
