MY AUTOBIOGRAPHY

My full name is Cyrene Joyce Chija Balmes, but you can call me Cj!

I exist here on earth for 18 years and I was born on the 17th day of

March 2002 in Maligaya Quezon City. My family is similar to triangle

shape we are three in the family, my mother is Myra Balmes, and my

father is Renato Balmes Jr. We are supposed to be four in the family, but

when my brother was born, he died. My brother's name is Ezekiel Razer

Balmes, he was died because of overdue. My parents are both high

school graduates. I together with my parents was currently living in

Fairview Quezon City. The religion of my family is Roman Catholic.

Ever since, I was a consistent honor student. When I was kinder, I

was with my grandparents in Daet Camarines Norte, they took care of me

when my parents labored in Manila, my family said that I’m not shameless,

I always partake in the contests of our barangay and the school. When I

was in Grade 1, my parents grabbed me from my grandparents, and from

that year, I was always with my parents, we lived this year in Pasay City.

After one (1) year, we moved our residence here in Fairview Quezon City,

because my parents have lost a job in Pasay City. We lived here in

Fairview because of my godmother, she proposes a job for my parents,

this year when I was a Grade 2 until now, we lived here. When I was in

Grade 2, I lost my honor, due to I always got sick, and I had a schedule for
my clinic day. From Grade 3 up to Grade 8, I completed my study at First

Mile Christian School, and I entered on the organization in our school, I

received the position of Representatives of Grade 7 and Grade 8, also

when I was in Grade 9 up to Grade 12, I already finished off my study at

Metro Manila College. At this school, I entered also an SSG as the

position of Auditor (this is for Grade 9 and 10). And I received an award,

being the best leader in our camping, I received a certificate for being the

3rd placer in Spoken Poetry, and so on. Since 2010-2020, I’m always on

the list of being an honor student. And I hope in this my college journey, I’ll

keep up my past did for my studies, and get my profession, which is

become a Certified Public Accountant (CPA).

I never wished to be a CPA, nonetheless, ever since, my dream

was to become a Financial Manager, I want to carry the course for my

college is a BSBA major in Financial Management. I realize into myself

that I want to become a COA someday when I was in Grade 10, also it

includes that my cousins are influences me to take an ABM track in my

senior high school, and BSA for my college, and the second influencer is

when I took my OJT in Quezon City Hall, one of my co-officemate said, “if

you are studying with the same year course of graduate, choose the one

with the title”. So that I decided to take a Bachelor of Science in

Accountancy in college.
 As a student, my dream is to succeed in the degree holder of a

Bachelor of Science in Accountancy, and after I graduate, I'll seize a board

exam, and if I'll pass it, I would like to study again, for the profession of

Lawyer. I want to become a "CPA-LAWYER". My dream for my family is, I

will give them our own house that they will do whatever they want. I want

to have a farm business for my parents and grandparents because they

loved so many plants. I want also to become the CEO of the company, for

now on, I didn't know what kind of company it should be. And if I finished

these dreams for myself and my family, I will give myself time to build my

own family too.

As my favorite verse in life said "I can do all things through Him

who strengthens me" - Philippians 4:13. If I'm feeling down, I’ll pray, and I

ask for His guidance and give me the knowledge so that I will answer

properly my tasks in school. In fact that, if I felt worried, I suffer all those

worries in Him. I know that I keep fighting on this battle, and more struggle

because He is always guiding me!

Always remember that "Every breath is a blessing, but the life you

received from God, is wonderfully and shall always be grateful for

whatever you have"
