All About Me

Hi! I'm Eli John Fajilagot. I was born on June 2, 2000 at Sta. Rosa City, Laguna, Philippines. We are six siblings in the family. I am the sixth child. I took my elementary education in Dila Elementary School and I took my Secondary education in Meridian Educational Institution. I have a happy childhood living with my parents and siblings.

My hobby is singing. When there's an occasion, I am the first one to choose the song in the karaoke. I also joined many competitions when it comes to singing. My other hobby is to play guitar. I learned to play a guitar when I was 7 years old. My siblings did not teach me. I just look at them when they are playing guitar. 

There are many things that I like and I hate. I like to watch animes especially "Dragon Ball" and "Hunter x Hunter". I like to eat healthy foods and healthy drinks. I like basketball eventhough I do not know how to play it. The things that I hate are watching horror movies, eating brocolli eventhough it's healthy, and playing volleyball. 

When I was a child, I am always happy because I can get the things that I want just by asking to my parents. Everytime we go to mall, my face was full of joyness because I know that I will have new toys. However, I became a spoiled brat so they changed their way on raising me. For me to have an enjoyable life, they letted me play outside to have friends. I realized that playing with your friends is more fun so I preferred it rather than playing alone inside the house. I thought that I can play freely but for me to play outside, I need to sleep at noon everyday. 

The technology had changed so cellphones and computers are showing up. I became addicted to computers and it came to a point that I always get money from the purse of my mother. When they found out that I am doing this kind of things, they banned me from using computers.

During my elementary days, I felt bad for myself because I can't come up with my other classmates. They are so smart. But the time came, when I was in Grade 4, I excelled in terms of academics. In fact, this was the first time that my teacher chose me to be a representative in Math Olympics, I became a sports writer in campus journalism. With the help and mercy of God, I remained an honor student until Grade 6.

During my highschool days, I encountered many new things. New school, new uniforms, new facilities, new classmates, new teachers, new rules and new friends. I experienced many problems but still I managed to be on top inside the classroom. With the help of God, I remained to be in the ranking until Grade 10. I am very grateful to God because He has helped me to surpass the problems I have experienced until I finished highschool.

As time goes by, many problems and challenges came in my life. Last year, I found out that my mother has a liver cirrhosis. For me, that was the biggest problem that I faced because it is not curable. I did not lose hope. I always pray to God so that my mom would be healed. After several months, We don't know what to do because when she was brought to the emergency room and was confined in the hospital, we found out that her liver was already deteriorated. After 3 days, she died beside me. It really hurts but I believe that this is God's will so that she will no longer suffer. 

😭😭💔💔

Now, I still feel the pain and hardship without having a mother. Despite the fact that I have this kind of feeling, I don't lose hope because I believe that we will meet again anytime soon that's why I need to endure all the suffering here in this world in order for me to be successful.

This is my current life. I am very thankful to God for 17 years of existence that He gave me. With the help and mercy of God, I am hoping that He will give me a better life in the future. Thanks be to God. To God be the Glory. 

God Bless, 

Eli John Fajilagot
