I was born to my parents in the Philippines. I lived there for 9 years until my parents decided to move me here in Canada.

My brother, Daniel, was born. He's annoying yet caring. At times, I loathe him, but there are also moments when I care for him.

I was turning 7. It seems that in my culture, turning 7 was a big jump. Most would celebrate their 7th birthday extravagantly. In this picture, I'm with my grandparents on my mom's side, in their canteen store, in the Philippines.

It seems that before we could land at Canada, we needed to switch planes in Japan. We stayed in Japan for 1-3 days. It was my, my brother and my mom's first time being in Japan. My dad had many work related orders to go to Japan before.

I was born in the Philippines, but I moved to Canada when I was 9. When we got to Canada, I was home sick and plane sick. We waited for my uncle to arrive and drive us to the place he was staying at.

Ellendale elementary. In my early childhood, I loved watching TV and movies, I also loved listening to english and it's subtitles on the screens. When we got to Canada, I was able to cope with the english, but my brother wanted to cry and go home because he could not understand. He was 7 then.

I discovered that in Guildford Library, there was a Summer reading program, and if you read for 60 days, you get a medal. This was the time when I discovered how much I love to read.

My first ever halloween, I was dressed as the typical witch. It was my first time. I was able to get a free tarot card reading and tons of candy! I have never acquired as much candy as I did, my first time.

It was also on my mom's birthday. In the Philippines, it never snowed, but everyone hopes to see it snow! When I first saw snow, I ran outside to lpay with my whole family, that never seen snow before.

My parents were able to find a house and bought it. We moved out of my uncle's. I didn't like it then because I did not want to part from the new friends I made in Ellendale nor start anew in a new school.

I began my school life once again in Berkshire. I was very quiet and shy because I did not know anybody here, I did also not know that I would make many friends and gain new memories and experiences.

My grade 7 graduation was the day that I got to wear a formal dress! I also did the speech along with another boy in another class in the same grade as I. I had lots of fun, took lots of pictures and ate lots.

Life began in our new school life, High school. It was very grand in the first few visit, but after awhile, we all noticed that it wasn't that big. I watched theatre, met new people, made new enemies and learned many new things.

I wasn't an official babysitter even though I did babysit my neighbours kids, once in awhile. I decided to use the spring break last year to become an official babysitter.

I wanted to become a lifeguard as a part time job. It pays well and it helps many people and teaches me many things. I passed Bronze Medallion, though, I needed to wait to do the life guard courses for Bronze cross. Hopefully this summer?

I confessed on the last day of school in Grade 8. Lucky for me, he liked me back. We decided to meet up on this day, and it ended in a shocking way that surprised me. He actually liked me back.

On my 14th birthday, my best friend organized a surprise party with all my other close friends. It was a blast! I'm so very blessed and thankful to have such wonderful friends.

That same day, my parents gave me a new phone because I got my last phone confiscated. I wanted a new phone for my birthday as well, so it was perfect!

Mr. Beaton gave me the Timetoast assignment on this day. I decided to do a timeline of my events after MUCH pondering.

During the long weekend, my brother had a chess tournament in Victoria, the whole family decided to go and sight see in the long run. Sadly, my dog couldn't come. I also saw the Victoria museum! It was very grand and interesting!
