My Autobiography: A Journey For A Lifetime

My Autobiography
A Journey for a Lifetime
One of the blissful days in every

human lives is to have a warm and
loving family. And I am so fortunate to
have one
I am Karenn E. Moldez and proud to
say that Im a product of love of my
parents. My mother is Raquel S.
Estante and my father is Eduardo
Moldez Jr. My mother gave birth to me
last June 9, 1987 at exactly 5:15 in the
afternoon in Perpetual Succor Hospital
and Maternity located at Sampaloc,
Manila. It was Tuesday then. Almost
two years after my mom got pregnant
again. She had a baby girl again, my
sister Johanna An-an E. Moldez. I
grew up in Batangas but there was
Years passed we moved in Palompon,

Leyte particularly in Sabang my fathers
hometown. There, my sister and I go to
school as preschoolers, as for my mom a
very loving housewife while my father was
away from home because of his work. He
was a seaman during that time. I still
remember playing with my sister in the
seashore. Making different creations and
structures out of the sand. It was really fun
by that time.
I really thought that our family has a
never ending happiness. But unlike those
fairytales, there was no happily ever after.
One day my father never came back as he
sailed away home. He left us. That was the
darkest moment of our lives. As we try to
In Batangas, we start a new life

together with my grandmother Lola
Julie. My Lola is a really God-fearing
person. And a very generous person.
She was fun to talk with.
Eventually, my mom found a job
outside the country at my Aunties
house in Thailand. She served as a
nanny of my Aunties sons. And thats
how she raised us as a single parent
until we finished from Kindergarten to
Grade School all the way to High
School. Leaving both my sister and I in
my grandmothers care. During those
days, I still dont know how hard for my
mom it would be. I graduated in Grade
School as a special mention only. Im
not really that smart I think. But I really
enjoy those days that I play with my
During my high school days, I gained more confidence

for myself to make more improvement and then I stand
out more. I started competing and joining different club
activities. I joined the Cultural Club. I even join a singing
competition for the first time when Im still a Freshman,
and luckily I won. I was also a part of dancers
competing outside the school. I remember the Funky
Dance competition was one of my biggest achievement
in life. I was an officer also in CAT. It was totally cool
being one. I can say that high school was one of the
highlights in my life that I will never forget and I think
everybody does. I think being an active member of our
church in Taysan made me more feel alive. It really
helps. So, I thank God for all the blessings and talent
that He bestowed upon me.
During these days I
learned that you really have to be independent, more
responsible, and mature as well.
High school days was indeed a very challenging and

yet gratifying years in my life. You really cant predict
what will happen next. Everyday is an adventure. The
same goes with love. And it strikes me three times in
a row. Love really makes you off-balanced. But Im
not this whole right now if it wasnt for them.
Experienced is still the best mentor, really.
After the long sacrifice of my mom working hard from
afar, she managed to built a house for us. Eventually
I graduated in high school and I started facing my
chosen career. And as for me, I chose Nursing which
was very in demand during that time. My Auntie she
was the one who provides all my needs in studying.
She supports me in everything.
Actually, almost all of my relatives are on the line of

Medicine. Some of them are Nurses and Doctors. So, I
dont really find it hard with the idea of choosing the
same profession. I was admitted in Philippine
Womens University in Taft, Manila. I pursue my career
for almost 1 year. It was a great experienced having
been away from home all by yourself by that time. I
learnt saving money just to sustain my daily needs
and expenses. I remember not eating for 2 meals in
one day because I have to save my allowance for the
fare going back in our home. Because I used up some
of my money for my projects which was so sudden
and I wasnt expecting it. I starved to death during
that time and yet no one knows about it.
Few more months I stopped. I gave way to my

Aunties son. She was pregnant to her first baby.
And he needs special medication because he was a
premature. We spent a lot of money just for him to
stay alive because he had a lot of complications. As
for me and my sister, we were sailed away going to
Cebu to continue our studies under my Dads
sister care. Thats what my Mother decided to. I
admitted in the Southwestern University with the
same course. Good for me, I was able to explore
more places and new people. The dialect was really
hard for me at first but as I went on I eventually
used to it now and used their own language
instead.
My first Semestral year there was a blissful one.

But my Dad suddenly decided to settle my
studying here in the Philippines and be ready to
continue our luck in California. He petitioned us
together with my sister. So we stopped schooling
and starts processing our papers. But due to some
circumstances it was postponed until it was
cancelled. And we lost contact with my Dad again.
For 2 years I was spending my life in Palompon,
Leyte
my
Dads
homeland.
Same
thing
familiarizing with the place and its residents until
Im used to. And then I met my half of my soul. He
was Genesis Jess. We met through a common
friend during the town fiesta.
As our relationship grew stronger and tested by

time, we had our siblings Trisha Yvonne and
Zabdiel Vera, our cute little angels. Now, Im
pursuing my new dream as an Information
Technology student in Palompon Institute of
Technology the same Institute that my fianc went
to during his College years
My only wish right now is to finished my studies
as I always wanted No more, no less. As for my
kids, to live their lives into their hearts content
with no regrets. And to my better half, I promise
that whenever you breathes Ill be there as your
oxygen. I love you and Ill always will.
