I have a family here on earth. I am Grateful and blessed to
have them. Blessed in a way that in spirit world I had chance to choose my
earthly parents and I am lucky to choose my loving parents that mold me for who
I am now. Gamboa Family is compose of seven members. I am the first princess in the family (char!). I have an eldest brother, two younger brother, one sister and my parents. We are proud to say that we belong to "The Church Of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. We are God-fearing, loving and Happy family.
I want to talk about my parents first. I would like to start describing my mom.She is Gemma Bordaje Gamboa. 45 years of age and was originally from Cadiz
City somewhere in Bacolod.We call her "MOTHERBIRD" She is the nicest and strongest person I ever met. She's very beautiful and an intelligent woman. I think I get my beautiful face to her (hahaha, wag ng pumalag!) I'm a proud daughter syempre!
Young na Young ang Face! Bongga!
I honestly don’t know where I would be or who I would be
without my mom, she is the one who raised me and my first teacher (I hope every
mom do this!) She simply is good for no other reason than it is the only way
for her to be. I aspire to be more like
her. And every daughter wants to be like her mom. I am proud with my mom in raising us. I will never forget people always say when we hang out, "Parang magkapatid lang" and here we are with my siblings saying: "Agoy nibukad nasad ang atay" haha. Honestly, it is really fun to be with her. The never ending story and chika, the teasing moment, the dance party and most of all our crying moment with her while watching movies.
Here's our wacky pic! :D
Well, so much for my mom. Next I would like to describe my Dad. My dad is Ricardo Japole Gamboa. 46 years old. A government employee and a businessman. Actually, I really don't know much about my father. He lives away from us. I will just talk about what are the memories I have in my mind when we were with him.
I still remember the time when I was young, I can say that I am a spoiled daughter. He always give what I want. He don't want motherbird to scold me. I always go with him in the office. In his day offs; we always go to malls and our all time favorite fast food; Mcdonalds. He loves to hangout and go to resorts with our family friends. He loved swimming (obviously), biking, singing, running a business, and most of all playing instruments.He is a hard working man. He is a provider and a good father to us. He never forget to greet us on our birthdays.
Here are some of his pictures during my debut. |
At this point, I would like to talk about my brothers and sister. I have two younger brother: Romney Levi (16) and Ricardo II (12). an eldest brother: Rye Lester (21) and a beautiful sister: Raya Laine (13).
I can say Rye is my good looking brother. He always cook our food ( he never did this before. haha). We never get bored in house coz he's the teaser and the witty of all (as always!),Rye is also a trying hard singer (oopps, sorry! haha) and i love more about him is that he is patient to teach my younger brothers about instruments and of course about the Gospel. He is a change man now.He is now preparing to go on a mission.
Romnney is a shy type boy, a fourth year high school student. He's good in sports. He's a 4th place chess winner in Negros Oriental and a basketball varsity player in his school. (Foundation University). He also loves to play instrument (just like my dad) I heard that he is the school heartthrob. (char!) Yes of course, I'm a proud sister! He wants to become an Information technologist someday.
My youngest brother is Ricardo, he's a grade 7 student, he loves to play games in Ipad. A loving baby brother to me. He always seek our attention. haha(a usual bunso's do) The funniest member in the family. He always put a smile on our face. He always do random things that would make us laugh. He's a good dancer. (liwat ni mama!haha) The cutest of all! He always say good things to us like: sexy kaayo si mama oy! (bisag dili! haha); gwapahang ate then sabay kiss and so on. He's so bubbly and the truest among us. And he is starting to have crushes! Daku na amung bunsoy. :)
Lastly, I want to talk about my only sister Raya Laine,a second year high school student. We are so close like best friends. She always want the things I have. She's more fashionably than me. She's so conscious about the fashion now a days and she dreamed to become a good cos-player. She is so intelligent in academics. Raya is now practicing to play a piano and guitar. She loves music and loves to sing. She's turning 14 tomorrow.
I know families can be together forever. I love my family and I will live with them til eternity.
A very inspiring quote: "All of us, single or married, are eternally part of some family” someway, somewhere, somehow”and much of our joy in life comes as we correctly recognize and properly develop those family relationships. We come to this earth charged with a mission: to learn to love and serve one another. To best help us accomplish this, God has placed us in families, for he knows that is where we can best learn to overcome selfishness and pride and to sacrifice for others and to make happiness and helpfulness and humility and love the very essence of our character."
