.but im happy though'coz i could help my parents someday when i finish my mission...1 1/2 year is not long to wait.hehehe...opportunities can wait!right?anyway, you asked about my place..philippines is a great...life here is simple...they say its a perfect place to have vacation...if you have a map.you will see how small it looks like.
.it has biiig and small islands.ang Philippines is composed of 3 parts: Luzon(upper part). Visayas(middle part),Mindanao(lower part)...a very rich place as they say...the people are so warm and friendly and hospitable too...i have a lot to say about my place but i guess you have to ask questions so i would know what i would tell you more...hehehe...anyway,i belong to the parts Mindanao...i lived in Bulua, Cagayan De Oro City, Misamis Oriental,Philippines.(sounds peculiar to you...right?)i live with my family at my age...hehehe..but i can live independently.i have brother (4 yrs younger than me)...we are only four including my parents.very few but very happy and contented...we live in a small house just enough for us.my mother is a private employee and my father is a peddler, its like buy and sell here...i love my place...just like you, we've been member before i was born.
.hmmm...some things i love to do it already written in my profile.i guess?...rollercoaster is one of the things i'd love to try...hehehe...the ups and down and circles...grrrrr...i love adventure but not that the wild one's...i like to do something that i havent tried before...as long as it doesnt harm anyone and me.hmmm..what else...oh!..you asked how i decided to go on the mission!?...it was a desire when i was a child like 8 yr old i think, that i want to be a missionary...but it faded when i become a teen and adult...then later it came back when i graduated in college...it was really something that i cried the most...i guess it was something i felt inside that makes me realized that i have been soo blessed...and its about time to return what i have received from Him...something like "pay back time"...and even growned more as i had a dream of it (i had to asked a worthy priesthood like my father and other close friends to interpret it to me)...that HE wants me to become a missionary.the process was so fast, it really felt so wonderful as i worked with the missionaries and see people being baptized because you've been a part of their convertion...aside from that...my Patriarchal Blessing says it so...thats how is started...i never thougth this will come...thats when i realized that life has its own time table...
...well i think that was way back in my youthful years...but i guess i can still manage to dance just to cover up with the age...hahaha...you see i'm no longer a "teen"...i just feel like one...hahaha...anyway, thats great!i hope you'll be assigned here in the Philippines...a whole new environment, a new language and new set of people with different life styles you'll encounter.
