I am Arenz S. Librea, the youngest in our family. We are only three. My sister is about to get married by January and my brother is a crew in Jollibee. My mother is an elementary teacher and my father is a politician. I grew up here in Tanay, Rizal. I am still living with my whole family. And since that I have grown here in province, I used to live in a simple life.
I do not know how to share something about my childhood. It’s just by that time; the only thing in my mind is to play with my playmates such as text cards, jolens and many more. But my father used to teach and train me to read English and do the mathematics making me so busy the whole day and making me unable to play outside.
When I was about to graduate in elementary, I was in private school. Suddenly, my mother and the principal on my school had a misunderstanding resulting to treat me personally by my teachers (as ordered I guess) and excluded me into the honors. I was in that school since I started to study up to grade six. But because of that incident, my mother decided to transfer me in to a public school that I do not want to happen because of my friends in my former school. But I had no choice. I started my high school life in a Tanay National High School. I am so strange to that place. It was my first time to be in public school and I do not know how to deal with the many students there. And because of the school population, the campus became crowded making me irritated for some times. As life goes on, I got many friends and I enjoyed each moment when I’m with them. We used to enjoy our high school life not just by facing our academics but also by means of joining some extra-curricular activities. We also go on tripping and staying in my classmates place to do food trippin and sometimes, The INU SESSION. But still, my father wanted me to excel. He keeps on reprimanding me whenever I got low grades in some of my subjects. But I understand him. He just wanted me to be on the top 10 so I can prove to my former school that I deserved to receive medals. It was not easy for me to break a leg. Section one, my section was so great. There were so many competitors around me plus the teachers who questioned my ability. Yet, I succeed. Out of 947 graduates, I became the 7th honorable mention of my batch (2007-2008). A lot of opportunity came my way including the scholarship program of our Mayor (Which is automatically given for the top 10) and the offer of our Congresswomen. And since that I have many friends that time, I do not want to got separated to them when I go on college. But as what our valedictorian said, "Sometimes we just have to put a period on something that has to end and not just settle on a comma. Because time will come you'll realize, it’s nice to see a complete sentence rather than a phrase that’s completely hanging and doesn’t even make any sense". We just have to end one chapter of our lives in order for us to open a new one.
Our Lady of Fatima University also gave benefits for those who has honorable mention. And as my dad heard about that program, he didn't think twice to enroll me in Fatima. I take Bachelor of Science in Nursing without even knowing how hard this course could be. Actually, it's not me who choose my course. It's my family. As I go beyond the line, The challenges become harder. And as I surpassed the challenges, lesson-learned was always being embanked on my pocket so that I have something to use whenever I need it. A new bunch of friends is present at this moment. But this time, I have to be more serious in my course. I have to devote myself for this career and not just to enjoy each day with my friends by hanging out.
When I entered the world of adulthood, so much distraction in my studies never fail to cross my path. though I became vulnerable for some times, Still, I convinced my self not to be tempted.
At this very moment, I’m still studying and still building my dreams to be successful in the near future. Of course I want to help my family. I know that the right time or should I say MY TIME will come. I will do my part. He will not fail me. I believe in Him. :)
"Therefore, my dear brothers, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain." 1 Corinthians 15:58
