Autobiography

It was exactly 5:42 am, 15th day of the month of December, year 1999, Wednesday at the Ospital ng Makati, a baby girl weighted 3300 grams was born. It was me, the product of my parents love for each other, Ronilita Cariasa Domingo. My name came from coalescence of my dear father and mother's name, Ronnie and Merlita.

Ronnie is my father's name. He is our superman and will always be! He has this humorous aura that makes us belly laugh anytime, both of my parents actually. He is our puissance. He is like a palm tree. He never gets tired and whenever there is a problem, he ensures our family’s safety and happiness all the time. He works his fingers to the bone. Merlita is my mother's name. She's like a deep blue sea, her patience and love for us is endless. She is our sunshine! I shared with her as a child was the ecstasy of eating pancakes. The homey smell of frying pancakes, the swirls the sweetness syrup the perfect pair. I have my two older twin brothers, Jarrie and Jauro. They are as good as a second father to me. They are both blessed with the gifts of talents, singing and dancing that sadly I don't have. Having my leisure time with them was the best.

I could still remember about being six, having simple life and doing simple things on the playground and the street. My brothers and I were always told to "go outside and play" and we did. The golden rays from the sun touches my skin, bright and cheerful. I played a lot when I was young. We played different games with other kids like habul-habulan, ice ice water, teacher teacheran and many more. But what I played the most was luto-lutuan, I had a set of clay pots when I was in Grade 3 that my mother had bought me. We cooked rice and quail eggs in my little kitchen, of course with the guide of my mama.

When I was in elementary, I experienced being bullied by my schoolmates. But it did not become a barrier to my studies. I was always on top back then and I also joined different activities to have fun. I also gained a lot of childhood friends, but whom I like the most was my childhood friend, Christine. Her smile was a mile wide. We've shared a lot of childhood memories, been through ups and downs since 2008 and now were still best friends. I had a lot of memories when I was young and I'll always cherish it.

I was in Grade 7 when I needed to ride a jeepney just to go to school. It was my first time. My first year in junior high school was not good, but then the remaining years of my junior high was remarkable and recreational. I had experienced doing a lot of things. I became a part of several group of friends, having a squad, finding enemies and the so-called puppy love. I'd also experienced doing not so good things, yet I'd always been a good and respectful child and a student. It’s been a month of Sunday since I last went to playground, and I miss it.

At present, I am in the mid-end of senior high school. My alarm clock as always yells at me every morning. As a senior high school student, I can say that it is the most exhausting and brain twisting year, yet I've gained priceless experiences. I have experienced a lot of challenges this school year and in the previous year. I gained a lot of knowledge and lessons learned and also I found my special friends KALASOLID too many to mention, I can't imagine how my senior high school year would be like without them. They’ve become one of my happy pills and laughter is the music of my soul. I am so glad and blissful that I am here right now and because of that, I am who I am, the crazy, joyful, lovable Roneth.
