About the Author

I was born on December in Iligan City, Philippines. I still live in Iligan City and I go to school at Philippine Science High School- Central Mindanao Campus. I live with my mother,Cecile; my brother, Kenneth; and my father, Mario. When my brother was born, I was six years old. Kenneth is a sweet kid, but like all brothers and sisters we fight like cats and dogs.

My name is Patrick Genio I started school when I was six-years-old. I went to kindergarten through sixth grade at St. Michael's College and while I was there, I won an award for being there for 9 years. I also won an award for honor roll. Then I attended Philippine Science High School- Central Mindanao Campus. I am now a junior (Academic year 2010-2011) at Philippine Science High School- Central Mindanao Campus. I plan on finishing school.

As I said in the beginning, I was born here in Iligan City and I've lived here my whole life. I would like to see more of Asia but unfortunatly, I don't have any money to leave the Philippines to go anywhere right now. I hope you have enjoyed reading my life story as much as I have enjoyed writing it for you. Try to get as much as you can out of school; you're only there for seventeen years on average and when you graduate, you're home free. Here's a tip for you to live or try to live by: If you think it, it can be done.
