Hi! I'm Abegail Gador. Call me Abby. I'm 17 years old and I love being 17. Unfortunately, our batch was the first one to experience the K-12 program and luckily I am now a graduating senior high student at Southwestern University PHINMA taking the strand of General Academic Strand who do believe that if there's a will, there's a way.
I faced a lot of challenges in my life at an early age for my parents decided to have a separate life for a reason that my mother walks in a wrong path for chosing the choice of having an affair and turns out to me and to my siblings, to be with our father at Moalboal, Cebu to start a new and peaceful life.
It was all good here, though things started to change as my father was diagnosed with cancer. February 19, 2103, I can still remember, the man who is my hero bid his goodbye. And left his angels broken hearted.
That's where my life begin.
I do as much as I can do at the age of 13 to sustain my needs, for survival, and my needs for financial for my studies. It was not a problem for me at all coz back when I was a child, my father taught me house chores and not to depend by the money and the luxury that he sustained for us.
It was also hard to handle my studies and work at the same time but for the very first time, I was part of the honor students in our class back in my primary school days 2013-2014. But sad to say, my dad haven't been able to go to the stage with me and he hasn't claimed the medal which was the reward for my success.
That's just how my life circles. Me, striving towards the future for my family as I find a way of solving the problems that might come up in my life.
People always tend to tell me that I am a brave and strong person but it was just for the people who believe in me and who mends me to be me. And I do think I am. I believe in myself and I am me.
