In this world where there are more than ten million occupants,
how would a piece of soul know his/ her worth? What could be the reason for our
existence? Are we here for a purpose?
Since I was a child, I have lots of "ambitions in
life." Sometimes I want to be an astronaut, other times a scientist, a
doctor, a lawyer, a pianist, a dancer. Or even a singer! I almost considered
every kind of job, and profession I could think of. But, as I tapped my
keyboard, trying to extract from my overused brain my reasons for living 20
years ago and my status at present, I can't help but feel a little bit
confused. Things really have changed. I never did become a scientist or an
astronaut, or a confident lawyer. I know how to dance, sing or even play any
instrument--but not enough to be considered exceptional.
Last year, I made my parents proud when I was able to finish my
Bachelors in spite of financial difficulties that our family went through. It
wouldn't be possible if I haven't got any part time jobs as a writer and a
private tutor. (Two thumbs up!) After college, I continued writing anything
under the sun (but without pay, since it’s an addiction! ha-ha!), and went on
with my tutorial. Then, things became entirely different when I applied and was
accepted as a SPED teacher in an oral school in Nagtahan. There I handled high
school classes and taught high school Science subjects (from first year to
fourth year). Also, i was the first 4th year adviser! I thought I won't be able
to handle those considering that I am the youngest teacher in the school.
