Filipina who have a Big Dream, Story of My Life
I was born on September 2, 1993 in province of Mindanao Philippines. My mother gave birth to me at home without a doctor or a midwives. We live in the forest and no one can help us. My mother gave birth with the help of my father. He cut the navel using the sharp of bamboo to avoid tetanus if he used knifes. A midwives came and touch my navel and change the way my father did. After a couple of minutes my mother saw me bleeding and change the color of my skin into dark. Then my father immediately fix the navel and trying to save me. My father is not a doctor or in any medical class. My father is just a elementary graduated. He did that base on what he knows because if you stay in the jungle and no one else can help you. You need to do what you can and I'm glad I'm alive.
In my young days our cost of living are just farming and catching fish on the river to live. Living in the jungle is a peaceful way until everything is getting hard for us and we need to locate into other place for a better life and for our school.
In my four years of age I almost die. I'm sitting on top of the horse carrying a 100 kilos of bananas going across to river. But the horse was in a hard situation because of the strong current of the river and I fell. My father immediately took me under the water and we're glad that the horse wasn't step on me. (The picture is not the actual but the kid position is almost the same)
I graduated in high school with the help of scholarship. To have a scholarship in high school you need to have a good grade in elementary. Studying hard to achieve the goals in my life to graduated.
I was able to go to college with the help of my Auntie and my parents. For the short help I took a course with a vocational course Computer Technology for two years.
The first design I made was this. And I'm so proud of it.
Life in college is not easy being away from my family and live by my own for the allowance of 300 pesos ($5.86) a week is hard. But my friends and my dream keeps me going.
To achieve my dream and to graduated in college are a lot of help for me to look for a job.
A week after I graduated in college I applied a job in the small construction supply for a year to help my parents financially. But my salary is just a 100 pesos ($1.95) a day. At age of 18 years old I was already a breadwinner in the family. My parents is just an elementary graduated.
I was a medical clerk for a year but my salary is between 100 to 140 pesos ($1.95-2.73) a day.
So I tried to apply to government office but I always got rejected because I didn't finished a degree course in college. They require papers not experiences.
Until I decided to take the opportunity to go to Cebu for a better job.
I was hired as concierge in a casino a better salary than before.
One of my dream is to be a model but my height is not qualified so I just take a photo of myself and pose.
Until I found myself to dream more and try to be a YouTuber and a blogger. This one is of my YouTube videos I hope you watch it.
Success is coming all you need to do is to "TRUST".
