Colorful Stages

On the seventeenth day of June year 1995 I was born and my parents named me John Filbert O. Espinola.




I grew up in a family that is God- fearing and reverent, so my parents decided to send me in Taytay United Methodist Christian School with great, good and knowledgeable teachers. I started studying in our school when I was in preparatory level. I still remembered the memory verses that the teachers kept on promoting before. Their worthy work made me to apply all of them in my life up to the present. I give gratitude to all of my teachers because they had been my second parents. I thank them because of their patience and perseverance in teaching us.

Then, I reached elementary. This is the stage in which I had many crushes that I forgot most of them :)). I still remember what my mother told me, " you could have many crush as many as you want, but you should know the difference of crush from love". I will never forget the Graduation day 2008. We were all excited, happy and also sad, because some of us will not study in one school. I believe on this school so I chose to still study here in high school.

When I reached high school level I became more responsible and active. I excelled in different extra- curricular activities such as in sports and in music. I also excelled in academics. I overcame my shyness to other people except to a girl. I still remembered my friends teased me as "TORPE" and "SLOW"

. This girl was my first love. When we became classmates, we got closer and comfortable to each other. I did everything to show my love for her. I did my best but my best wasn't enough. She chose my classmate instead of me, not just my classmate but my friend. How awful it was to be rejected. I learned that I should give my best effort to show my love. As time passed, I realized that I found the girl that makes me smile, care for me and love me just the way I am.

I can't express the gratitude I feel for this school. this have been a big part of my life. This made me change for the better. It made me God- fearing, an obedient son and a better individual
