BIOGRAPHY
Kiela N. Arizobal was born on July 7, 2002 at Parang, Cantilan,
Surigao del Sur. The name Kiela was given by her great-grandmother,
but her parents and sisters used to call her Kayla or Kay-Kay. She is the
youngest among her siblings. She is from a low-class family, her
parents worked abroad, left her and her sisters at an early age with their
relatives. Years later, her mother decided to quit her job and return
home to take care of Kiela and her two older sisters. Her mother was
very strict, Kiela is not allowed to go out during afternoons to play with
the kids on their neighborhood because she needs to take a nap. At that
time, Kiela still don’t understand much about life, she was very clueless,
clumsy and very shy. Her clumsiness always gets her in trouble with her
mother, but then on she learn how to be responsible and careful
especially when she’s doing house chores. In the age of 5, year 2007,
she started her pre-school at Parang Gospel church Christian school.
Still, she was clueless but continued to go to school even though she
has no friend, since it was the first day of school. Years pass by, Kiela
begun to have friends in her new school where she started her 1 st grade
level Parang Elementary School at the age of 7. She was an
outstanding student, she discover her talent in dancing and drawing
that she got from her older sister. She was the first honor in their class
in that year which made her parents very proud. At the age of 8, she is
on her 2nd grade where she started to enjoy going to school and having
friends she can play with but still focus on her studies and gets to be an
honor student.
However, there is still a missing piece that she felt in her heart. In
every achievement she gets and every birthdays, her father is not there
to celebrate it with her because her father is working abroad to sustain
the needs of their family. Her always wish in every candle she blows
during her birthday is for her father to come home. At the early age,
Kiela craves for her father’s love. She was envy with her classmates
that in every recognition ceremony they have their fathers with them to
pin their ribbons and medals while she only has her mother. Later on,
she get used to the feeling of not having her father around and
understands their situation why her father needs to be away from them.
She used that feeling as motivation to strive more and study harder
because she believes that when she gets to finish her studies and have
a decent job her father can stop working and return home.
At the age of 10, she had her first crush. He was a year older
than her, and he never noticed her at school. Kiela was very shy
whenever that boy is around. A year later, she got the courage to talk to
