My Autobiography

Charmaine F. Lima BS IT (NW) 3AMy full name is Charmaine Fincale Lima. I am the second daughter of Fatima and Joel Lima. I have two sisters, Pressy Leen who

just a year older than me, and Pauline who is six years younger than me. My mom is a sewer, a very good dressmaker as what othe

say. My father is a machinist in the engineering division of Government Arsenal DND. I am a converted Christian; my Father and A

was already a born Methodist while my mother and I were converted into Methodist just when I was 8.

It was August 13, 1990, a rainy Monday morning when I, the lady standing in front of you was born. My mother did not have painful labor because it was just a year since she delivered for my older sister. My parents thought that they were lucky at the time o

my birth because a fresh graduate midwife who took charge on my delivery offered her service for free. I was baptized on October 4

1990 during the feast day of St. Francis of Assisi as a Roman Catholic but as I grew up, my Lola used to bring me in Methodist churc

every Sunday. I spent my childhood years in Townsite, Limay, Bataan, in my Lolas house under the care of my Aunties because m

mother at that time was working in Taiwan and my father worked during weekdays. I can still remember when I was 5 years old, I use

to asked my father to bring uspasalubong every time he go home, and he always bring us to Cindys every Saturday with some of m

cousins, we played and enjoy without thinking and worrying. Those things made me wish to become a kid again. It brings joy to m

when reminiscing the moments of my childhood, that even a new toy or just a sweet candy can turn my tears into smile.I started school when I was 4 years old at Gabaldon Kindergarten. I always got sick on my first year in school and always had

toothache thats why I sometimes missed a class. It was a week before my graduation when my mom arrived, and we lived i

Villafranca Street, still in Townsite.At the same kindergarten school, I had my second level. I was quite a brat during that time, to the point that I wont go to school if

dont like how my hair looks, if my socks were not worn properly, if Im not comfortable with my uniform, or if no one will send m

from home to school. At the age of 5, my mother taught me how to read. Its October 1996 when we rented a house in Ambrocio Stre

near on my Lolas house. I entered grade I when I was 6 at Limay Central Elementary School and received an award during th

recognition day. I just studied in Limay elementary school until grade 4 because we transferred our residency from Townsite to Arsen

DND, Lamao still within Limay on December 16, 2000. I became a transferee when I was grade 5 at Arsenal Elementary School. graduated on April 11, 2003 as a 3rd honorable mention. I had spent one of the most important parts of my life in Limay National Hig

School where I became active in extra curricular activities.Id encountered ups and downs both in family and school life; but I know that thats normal. In family, of course in financial aspec

but I believe that money is the most simple problem that a man can encounter. What I am thankful for is our tight relationship with eac

other. My parents are working hard just to sustain our needs; and to make it worthwhile, Im doing my best to show that Im striving t

do what they want and expect me to become. In school, I became more self reliant as a high school student though I had mfrustrations every time I didnt meet my target grade, until I came to realize that mans capacity has limitations and varies in each an

everyone of us.

I graduated in high school as 3rd honorable mention with 7 other special awards, but still I cant consider myself at that time as

very good student because I didnt able to passed the application for UP Tangway scholarship, until I took the examination here i

BPSU and passed the course of BS Information Technology and made me realize that theres always a reason for everything. I starte

to live on a boarding just last semester in Doa Maria, near from my school. Im now on my third year as an IT student, still pursuing

though its really getting harder and harder every semester. Maybe I set too high standards but thats the only way I can do to motivatmyself to learn enough about my future career.

Last September 12, 2009, I left my boarding house because we will transfer our residency on the 13thback to Townsite for man

reasons: business of my mom and aunt, near in my sisters school where my Ate is also taking her OJT , and near in the public marke

and in our church.This is just bit story of my life, hoping 5 years from now, I can add a more interesting part.
