Being far from one's family is never been easy,but if it is for your own good,you really have to.After my High school Graduation my Dad decided to enroll me in one of the prominent University in Davao City.It is far from the place where I grow up.Growing in place where there are lots of farm animals & plants is really fun,and i'm used to it.There,each and everyone are willing to help when your in need,fruits & vegetables is everywhere & you can ask for it just for free.When I wake up early in the morning I really love to hear the sounds of the birds,rooster and other animals & the best part of being there is you can breathe fresh air & theres no pollution there.Im contented with my life there.I have my friends,family & love ones with me there.But as a young one i have to explore different place,things,find new people who can be part of my life & test my ability to live alone & away from my family,for me to be able to surpass every challenges that will come to me in the near future.But,can i do it?Thats the first quetion comes to my mind.I don't know how to cook,wash & iron my clothes & how to be more resposible.Since I was a baby I have my Nanny to do things for me.So,my Dad trained me to do things & i made it.As I leave my beloved place,my family and my friends,tears are falling from my eyes sign of the sadness i feel inside.As the time I leave I saw those people who really do love and care for me crying,and their tears gave me strenght & inspired me to work hard & study well,for me to have a brighter & better future.
Now,I am already here in this big city.I am now studying in one of a prominent university here,the University of the Immaculate Conception and taking up Bachelor of Science in Business Administration major in Financial Management.I met my new found friends here.This friends of mine never left me alone coz they knew that I am alone here.I am not used to the climate & air here, so in my first few days I got sick.Every move you make you have to spend money & their are only few animals here.My family never forget to check me from time to time.They fulfill my needs & if they are not busy they come here to visit me.On my first 2 months ,I am crying everynight coz I miss our Bario & my love ones.I'm asking myself if I am really belong here.My friends makes me feel that I really belong here.My friends is my family here.We take our lunch together,wait if one of us is not yet around.Im thankful to god coz he sent me 5 new angels after that will surely guide and be there for me.I also meet again my childhood friend whom I've not seen for almost 10 yaers.I am happy to meet him again.The time comes that I learned to come out of my shell.As I overcome my shyness many friends came to me and I consider it as a blessings to be thank for and not only my friends, of course my family,the opportunities & most specially my life.I learned here to be more strong,to fight and to be more responsible.I also learned how to act & move like a lady & dress up well .But of course I never forget the teachings and mannerism I learned from my parents.I never let anyone to influence me with there wrong doing.I don't smoke,drink hard drinks & going out with boys.I must know my limitation as a 17 year old.So let's see whats gonna happen to me for the next 4 years of staying here...
