Family

“You’re life would never work out without a family.
For you’re family are like your friends.“

“A family that prays together stays together”- this is just a common quote or saying which we can hear it in television advertisements, radios, magazines and almost everywhere. But until now I am still hoping that I can achieve the literal meaning of that. As in, I am wishing that me with my whole family would pray together so that we will stay together forever even though me and the rest of the siblings will get married and will have his or her kids. I am saying this because never in my life I have experienced this so I am trying very hard. But it is just fine, for as long as we are united, peaceful and happy.

I can say that I am not that close with the rest of the members in the family even to my mother or to my sister. I am not close to them because I am not an open person. For example, if I have anger inside of me then this anger will still remain in me and I will never share it to anyone else. But I can’t consider this situation as bottling my emotions because I am showing my anger to the one who made me feel that kind of feeling. So do you get it? I hope so.

I will introduce my family to you let’s start with my father, he is Mr. Narciso Allones-Gomez. My father is the one who chose all our names from my oldest brother down to my older sister then me and then my baby brother. And I am happy about it because my father chose nice names, so thank you pa!

Then my mother, she is Mrs. Virginia Jereza-Gomez. I am grateful that Lord gave me a good mother although there are times that there is a misunderstanding between the two of us. My mother is a good cook, in fact she is in demand when there are occasions in our neighbors. I can describe my mother as a loving, caring, understanding and is always there whenever I need her. I love you ma!

Next is my oldest brother, he is Van Niel J. Gomez. My brother is an Electrical Technology graduate in Cebu State College of Science an Technology also known as CSCST. I don’t know with my brother why he shifted his course from Computer Science to Electrical Technology. Maybe the answer is because he misses us. He misses us because he studied Computer Science in Saint Joseph’s College in Maasin, Leyte. But he only needs one semester to graduate then he comes back here. But I can’t blame him and as what they say, past is past. My brother is working at a Japanese restaurant. He has a girlfriend, which is already a nurse. And when they are together, they look so good because both of them are handsome and beautiful.

My sister is Vanessa J. Gomez. She is a second year student at Cebu Normal University and her course is Secondary Education. My sister is talented, beautiful and artistic. We always fight whenever we are together but it is fine with me because I am used to it.

And lastly is my younger brother, Van Nyle J. Gomez. He just recently finished his kinder one studies last March 16 of this year. He is naughty and hardheaded but although he is like that, you can tell him to run for you an errand. He is also handsome and intelligent.

These are all the information if not all well, almost all information about my family. Summarizing it all, my family is a happy, beautiful, understanding, unified and loving. Eventhough as like what I have said before, I am not that close to them but my love for them is unconditional. I don’t know what my life would be without them because they are my everything, they are the air that I breathe, the food that I take in, the water I drink and most of all they are my friends that I am sure I could really count on no matter what happens. So to my family thank you very, very much for everything you have done to me. I love you so much!
