"Jaimee, ang sikat sikat mo na. You almost accomplished everything. What can you say to your supporters?" A student asked me.

"Well, I couldn't accomplish anything without my friends and of course my mom. The strongest person I know. To all my supporters, thank you for being with me and supporting me in my every decision. Thank you for being there for me."

"Thank you Jaimee Niya Sanchez!" She exclaimed then left happily.

"I really love seing them happy."

"J!" My bestfriend Blue shouted. "Nandito ka nanaman oh." Umupo kami sa bench. "Nandito nanaman ang mukha mo sa schoolpaper."

"Oo nga eh. I'm so happy I accomplished these things. Kung nandito lang sana si dad, he'd be proud." My dad left us when I was little, said my mom. He and my mom, I think, had a little conflict, and not long they got separated. Wala na nga akong alam tungkol sa kanya.

"I'm sure he'll be grateful to have a daughter like you. My mom and dad, kahit na halos araw araw nag aaway sila, they always find a way para magkaayos."

"Buti pa yung parents mo, Blue. I wish dad was here. Sana bumalik na siya. I love my mom pero, iba talaga kapag may daddy eh. He'll be your hero when you need one."

"Jaimee!" More students came to get my statement about this and that. Actually, I never get tired of answering their questions. In fact, kahit every second pa nila ako tanongin, I'm fine with it.

After dismissal, my mom picks me up. She may be a very busy person, but she never makes me feel left out. She knows how to balance things. "J, hop on." Pumasok ako sa sasakyan namin. "How's school."

"Same old, same old. Still a challenge, but I can handle."

"That's my girl. Keep on being positive, okay?" Nagdrive siya papunta sa bahay.

"Magbibihis lang po ako. Then, I'll cook dinner."

"Okay honey. Surprise me with the food." She stopped. "Oh wait, you never failed to surprise me."

"Thanks mom." Pumasok ako sa room ko tapos nagbihis. Kain muna bago trabaho, slash school work.

Bumaba ako sa kitchen para magluto. Next on the menu is, Fried rice with shrips. Hmm, yum. Nagluto ako then kumain kami after. To be honest, this is just how my day goes. It's like the next day is the same as today.
