(Note: This will be my first post so I apologize for the wrong grammar and if I don’t write very well.)
Twenty-two years ago, in a far away land, was born a brilliant child who is destined to change lives of many people (I am not entirely sure of this but for now I think that’s my purpose). She grew up to be a quiet, smart, loving girl and she is favored by her father above her other siblings (I am not sure of this, too, but my father used to say that I am his favorite daughter).
I attended a public school in elementary where I was accelerated to Grade 1. I never studied nursery or pre-school, and if that happened in today’s generation you can call me a gifted child then. My teacher never noticed me, until I started sleeping in her classes. She would wake me up and gave me several kinds of punishment like answer the problems she wrote in the blackboard or flash cards at me with mathematic equations that I have to answer as fast as I can. I just made her amazed because even though I slept most of the time I usually answered her questions correctly. But then, teachers still hate sleeping pupils so I never got to the honor list. I just found out that I was her favorite pupil when I was already in high school.
I was an honor student from grade 2 to grade 6 plus my parents were so proud since I was awarded Best in Science because I used to compete with other schools in science quizzes. I was so innocent that time that I didn’t know how brilliant I am (hahaha!).
Anyway, I took an admission test in order to be admitted in the school where I will be spending my secondary education and I was so confident that I will pass the exam but I never expected to be on the top list. I was popular during my high school days. But my teachers hated me because they thought I am a nerd.
My college days were brighter than my high school because I got to know the value of life and friendship. I was friendlier and I actually had several groups of friends. I am not the silent type anymore. I can talk from sunset to sunrise if there is someone kind enough to chat with me and listen to anything I say. Friends were more important for me than my family then, but too much of anything is not good, so God started to teach me (us actually, my friends and I) some lesson. Until now those friends are still my bestfriends because we passed the test that came our way (hehehe).
I graduated college without flying colors but I was happy because I went to the most prestigious school in the country and being admitted alone is an honor (;)). Currently, I am working in an outsourcing company. Until here for now, I’ll think of a better article next time but maybe I’ll be copy pasting some of my posts here (Junelle said this is my blog and I can post whatever I want).

Oh its Donz first blog!!!! Kyaa! Lol.
I like the intro, its like the beginning of a fair tale story XD
Lol, my dad also favored my sister so I know what you mean.
It was really interesting to learn a little bil of your childhood and trying to imagine you growing but one thing that didn't surprise me was that you slept during class lol, that's the Donz I know. Its awesome to know you got in to such an elite school and somehow I can imagine you being popular during your high school days.
Also great to hear that you were able to share all those moments with your friends and that God was there to teach you along the way.
It was great to learn something new about Donz!
