I am Arvin Fernandez Suralta, a 16-year-old senior student of the University of the Philippines High School in Cebu. People call me by different names of endearment like Vin, Arvs, Arvinity, Vinz, and others. But I find it very sweet of a person to call me simply by my real name. I presently reside in Lower Camelot Street, Queenly Homes Subdivision, Tabok, Mandaue City. I am the youngest in the family. I have three siblings, two brothers and one sister.
“Everything should be made as simple as possible, but not simpler”. This quotation by Albert Einstein somewhat describes my personality. I am just a simple person living a simple life. A simple individual who does what other people do. I am gifted with some talents and skills, which I hope to practice and develop someday. I see myself as a loving son and a good brother. I am very close with my mother whom I consider my best friend.
I believe that I am also a good friend whom anyone can trust. I am generous and kind to others. But sometimes I make them mad because of the way I express myself. I make them laugh especially during bad times. I can give advices too. When they are down, I also encourage them to still believe that life is worth living despite the trials and tough times. After all, we should respect our own life because as stated as the fourth unwritten law of nature, life is a precious gift from God.
I believe that Education is a social process. Education is growth. Education is, not a preparation for life. Education is life itself. I consider this process a very important one because it is by this process that we are molded into better individuals. I consider myself as a small thing in this big world. I am but a person too common to be recognized by the crowd. But even though I consider myself as such, I still find myself as a productive and useful person in this world. I do my best to be able to graduate and see myself as a successful someone, someday. I do not involve in vices, which can hinder me from achieving my goals. I believe that all great achievements come from working and waiting. That is why I strive hard to reach my goals and aspirations in life. I do this not to gain praises, but to help others in need.
Many people think that I am strong and brave because of my attitude towards the conflicts and problems I have encountered in life. I just laugh at them and still not lose hope. But they do not know that inside me is a soft heart only relying faithfully to one God. The Light of Christ is the ultimate source of my strength to carry on until I reach the fulfillment of my dreams. With Him, I can say that I am whole, a person created for a definite purpose.
