A Woman with a Purpose

I am a woman with a dream. I am strong not only physically but also, for facing varies difficulties. I can stand on my own but I can’t live without my parents and Almighty God beside me. I am also a cheerful person who is always thinking positive in every situation. I love all types of art whether it is painting, drawing, photography, fashion design, interior design, and more. When I am despondent, music is my companion. I listen to them every single day because I feel like I am in my own world. The world where there is only happiness, contentment, and euphoria. Music takes all my pain away and replace it with decolorize. I am currently 10 th  grade at Ilocos Sur National High School. Myka Andres, your future doctor in God’s will and grace. source:  https://www.rappler.com/nation/237628-senate-hearing-provincial-bus-ban-2019

Since it is a national holiday, government offices are closed including business establishment except shopping centers. While, public transport such as buses, passenger jeeps, and tricycle still operate but their routes may be limited because of the parades.
