My Autobiography.... Verity in my Life.....

I am Arlyn Santiago, born on July 10, 1990 at Alua, San Isidro, Nueva Ecija. Second child to the thrid siblings of Arturo and Rosalie Santiago. My sisters are Aprilyn and Anabelle Santiago.

I was six years old when I first enter in the school. The first school I had studied is Ferree Nursery School. I was transfered at General de Jesus College when I was in pre-elementary. I studied there since pre-elmentary until highschool.

On that school I experience many different things. I had met there different people and some of them became my friends. I also experience there the different treatment to me of the other children. They always tease me because of the reason I am not normal like them. I am so thankful that time because my older sister always protect me.

When I was in first year highschool I was so nervous because that was the feeling I always felt every the class started. I was second year highschool when I first experience the most unexpected tragedy happened into my life. I really don't expect that in my early life my mother will gone. I am not ready to loose her because for me she is the only reason why I am living here in this world that time I felt I am alone and I felt that it was the end of my life. That time I only knew that kind of moment happened on the television so to my surprise it happened to me. I can't cry that time because I am very shocked on what happened. After that experience I promise to myself that I will do all my best to achieve all my dreams.

After one or two years an unexpected moment happened again into my life. It was November 2006 when my father “biglaan” introduce her new wife. That night I was hurt because for me the memories of my mother was forget by my father. It brings to us so much pain. It took so long before I accept the fact that he had a new wife.

Our life continues to us. Me and two sister were living in our house in Nueva Ecija while my father was working here in Manila. Our situation was very difficult to us because sometimes my father did not have so much attention to us and it brings to us the feeling that we did not have any parents.

I just ignore the things happened in our life when I was studying. My father went home when our graduation came then after that he came back here in Manila. On that matter I understand him until one week or two his “sustento” was lacking. He didn't now that because my father was not the type of father who is showy. I was hurt then so I decided to went on the province of the family of my mother. There I say what we experience and It was caused so much interuption to the lives of my aunties and father. That time what I did was called in tagalog “naglayas”. I know it is bad but my only point that time is to make my father to realize that he was lacking attention and “suporta” to us. Sad to say, at the end the result was I was wrong on what I did. I also realize that I become selfish that time. I didn't think the how my father sacrifice only to give all our needs.

Now, I am 17 years old a first year college student here in Asian Academy of Business and Computer. I am living with my father and his new wife at Valenzuela City. I can say that until now it was difficult to me to accept his new wife but I know it has a right time that I can accept her. Actually were not close because I don't like her attitude... I don't only show that to my father but I know he knew it.

In my different experience happened into my life ther are some quotes and saying that I proved....

" In our world there are no permanent things and the only permanent was "PAGBABAGO"

" Accept your mistakes and you will be granted"

" Show your love to your love ones before it was too late..."

" Give imporatance to the person who love you because they will never be with you forever..."
