The Ups and Downs. There are a lot of ups and down that happened to my life, just like the others. 

2. Identify the turning points in your timeline. What were the thoughts, feelings and actions that you experienced?

The greatest turning point in my life was when dad tried to reach out and became part of my life again. I don’t really remember what I felt that time because I was still a kid. But I remember being clueless on why he was there and I was happy that he is. Recently, I knew that the sisters from my elementary school used to pray for me. For me to reconnect with my dad in a way and for him to change for the better, and he did.

Another one is when tita Edith, my grandmother who took care of me from the start, was diagnosed with cancer and had Alzheimer’s disease. 

3. Who are/were the most significant people in your life? How did they influence you?

Tita Edith - took care of me since I was still little

Tita Rach - she teaches and guides me on my faith and religion. 

Mama and dada, my grandparents - learned values and also guides me in my faith. 

Parents - provides my needs and takes care of me. 

Nik - bestfriend from the start, she’s always there for me + we share a lot of memories and activities together 

Provi squad, barkada since grade 8 - my second family, always there for me through ups and downs, good and the bad.

Archie - teaches me to do better and improve in all aspects

4. What would you change or add, if you could? How would each of these changes or additions affect your life, or even change its present course? 

None, I wouldn’t be the person I am today if one of the events in my life changed. 

5. Where do you want to be in a year, 5 years, and 10 years? What do you expect your future timeline will be?

In 5 years, I’ll be working in a production. Maybe an art director or something. I’m good with my job so I’ll be successful. I’ll be paying my own bills and such. I would be helping my family.
