Away from Home


    Our internship last summer vacation became so productive because of so many things that I learned. Things that I might never know if I just stay in the four corner of our classroom. But the most important thing that I learned is to become more independent. For an almost one in a half month, I lived independently in Naga City.
                It was my first time to be away from home. At first I felt the so called ‘’ home sick’’ but through the help of my board mates and classmates I became used to it.
For me, the most difficult thing that I encountered living far from my family was when it is time to laundry my clothes. Second hardest thing I experienced doing household chores when I was in Naga City is cooking. Although cooking is fun, when you’re tired and you literally want to sleep, I must get up and cook for myself because no one will do it for me.
Living alone and far from my family brought mixed emotions to me. The one and a half month stay in Naga City was an unforgettable experience because I learned so many things. It made me became more independent and responsible enough to face challenges that I may encounter while I’m on my journey.
I came back in Albay full of experiences and knowledge that I acquired during my internship which I may use when I’ll be in the real world of my chosen profession. The internship served as a stepping stone for me to experience the life when I go outside the school campus.
