MY AUTOBIOGRAPHY

      It was around 11 o’clock in the morning, Wednesday, the 25^th day of October 1995, while everyone were so busy harvesting their crops, my mother gave birth to me in a hospital in the City of Cabanatuan and delivered me caesarian that almost cost her life, and I got the chance to exist in this world. I was named after the famous Hollywood singer, Janet Jackson whom my father idolized most. My aunts and uncles used to call me “neth” and my cousins sometimes called me “jan-jan.

          I am a simple girl who enjoys doing lots of things. I love surfing the net, playing badminton and volleyball, eating and sleeping. I’m a girl who used to be talkative and sometimes being called “makulit”. I’m easy to be with, a funny girl but sometimes moody. I have the attitude of being childish and sometimes immature because I am the youngest in our family.

        Now lets go back in time. During my childhood, I spent my time more on playing just like what an ordinary child does. I used to play with my cousins and with my neighbors that most of the time caused me not to eat my meals. I grew up with my parents namely Nonita Almodovar and Lunuel Ramos  together with my older sister Shiela, in the small town of Cuyapo in Nueva Ecija “The Rice Bowl of the Philippines”. This town is where our Filipino hero Apolinario Mabini was arrested by the Americans on December 10,1899. We lived here very happy since I was young together in with my big family in my mother’s side. As I’m growing up, my mother sent me to school and started my kindergarten and my elementary grade in a public school in our town. My seven years in studying made me feel not that too hard because there were no many worries and problems to think about. I finished my elementary on 2006 and graduated as a valedictorian.

        The next stage of my life started as a high school student. As everyone says, high school is the best time for everyone’s life. I strongly agree about this. But when I started this phase of my life, I found myself having difficulty to adjust. I lived together with my grandparents during those times. Its quite hard but I get to used on it. I discovered many new things, met new faces and friends and also a new environment. I found it very enjoyable, full of experience and full of memories. I met my friends here who are now my best friends as well as my favorite teacher “Maam Netty”. During those precious moments, I do a lot of things as a student. I am the secretary of the Supreme Student Government, a CAT officer and a writer in our school paper. I travel around Nueva Ecija to join lots of contest. Sometimes I win, sometimes I don’t, but it doesn’t matter.  What matters most is the experience and the lessons that I’ve learned. I’ve also been into commitments like other teen agers. But even for a short period of time, I can say that this is one part of my life that made me feel what a teen ager is and a high school student. I finished my high school in Cuyapo National High School and graduated as a salutatorian.

       Now I’m leaving my hometown and all of the good times I had in it. I’m starting a new life again. The college life. New surroundings, new faces. new friends and a new environment. I found it too hard to move here in the City, a strange place for me then. My life as a college student was really hard for me. I cry most of the time. I was nervous because college is too different from high school. There’ll be no Maam Netty, Sir Mark or Even Maam Tess to give me advice. In this battle, I have to fight alone and depend on no one but myself with the guidance of our Almighty Father. I know that time will come that I will be able to fully adapt in my environment. My college journey has just started. Soon, I will learn and develop. And the whole planet will see me evolving. J
