First time I went alone from my family was the time that my Aunt take care of my schooling in College. They took me to support my financial needs for me to complete my 2 years Computer Secretarial course in Bulacan Polytechnic College. During that days, I'm so afraid that I might be one of the slow student which came from Visayas Region and called as "Promdi", but thank God that I am not that outcast to my fellow students because its there first time also to handle Computer (machine). Even if the relationship we have with my Aunt is not that good that there are times that she told me that "If you can not go along with my attitude you are free to leave and go back to what the nature of life I have in province". She even treat me just like a housemaid because I do the cleaning, washing, laundry and ironing. But even if my hardest time with her, I thankful that I have college friends who helped me and thought me that this was only a trial and they know that I can make it and able to have my Certificate. And I have a college friend whose name is Flerida who helped in my financial needs, she leaned me money when times that my cousin the one who finance my studies have no funds during the time. And there's also time that I will talk to the Registrar's office to have a permission for me to be able to take the exam even if I fail to pay the balance of my tuition fee. And there are times that when I call my mother in our province I pretended to be okie because I don't want them to worry about my condition living w/ my Aunt. But even if my Aunt treat me this way, I have no bitterness against her and the words that she give and tell me I take it as an advised for me to be a better person and for me to learn things. And during my schooling, I experience traveling to places in Luzon area during our field trip (sounds corny) but true we came to Cavite (Aquinaldo's Shrine) to Tagaytay, and Enchanted Kingdom in Laguna..College days is fun, serious game of life practice. And despite all this I am very thankful and blissful because I got to College and attended 2 years course while others can't. And there's an incident that I may lost the said Certificate because I did not able to meet the passing deadline of 35words per minute that you must encode without mistakes. But thanks to one of our Professor (sorry ma'am i forgot your name) that she said that they let us Graduate even if we fail to comply because she said that we can be at our best once we have a job outside the school and after our Graduation.
And when March 2006 we are now marching on the stage ready to received our Certificates. Friends that we encounter whom we will miss and the very strict, determined, warm, and cools teachers that we will misses too. Even if the hardest time that we may face there's always a good harvest on it later if we must keep working harder and if we believed that whatever we may do it will not be possible without the helped of our savior our greatest Father (Lord Jesus Christ).
