Helping an Abused Girl
One day, while I was biking around the neighborhood, a shock came into my face when I saw a woman beating her daughter up endlessly. I approached them and asked her, "What do you think you're doing? How could you treat the poor girl like that? She's already crying hysterically, and you should be ashamed of yourself!" When the woman heard this, she stormed off angrily. Thus, leaving me and the girl behind. With deep concern, I asked her, "Are you all right, darling?" She replied as tears streamed down her eyes, "No, I'm not. I'm terribly bruised and deeply hurt emotionally." With that, I gave her a big hug and kissed her on the forehead and cheeks. I then told her, "It's going to be all right, love. You're ligtas with me now. Come, let me take you to the doctor to have your bruises cleaned up." She replied, "Oh, thank you so much indeed. You're very sweet to me." I said, "You're welcome. I'm always ready to help. What's your name, my dear?" "My name's Bridget." She responded. I remarked, "How lovely. I'm Nicholas. I'll take good care of you while my parents and I find a new, caring family." Bridget said, "Aw! How nice of you! Thanks again, Nicholas! I really appreciate it." I replied, "Anytime, darling." Soon after Bridget's bruises were cleaned, I took her to my house, introduced her to my parents, and told them about her plight. So, they called an adoption organization to help them find a loving foster family. During the waiting process, Bridget and I had lots of fun playing together and exploring Liverpool. I even let her ride my bike around the front yard. All of these made her happy again. When my parents got another call from the organization and told them that they have found a new family from Manchester for Bridget who was willing to adopt her, I was sad to see her go at first. However, I knew that it was best for her to be with them. I hugged and kissed her once again before she left with the family. She also told me that we might see each other again should I go to Manchester for a visit. This made me smile, and I felt so good on the inside to have been such a big help to Bridget during her road to recovery.

An Irish Adventure
A week after my first araw of school, my parents and I went on a vacation to Ireland to celebrate St. Patrick's araw and to visit some relatives there. We rode a cruise ship from Albert Dock, which crossed the River Mersey and the Irish Sea before stopping in Dublin. After getting off the ship, my aunt, uncle, and cousin Liam met us outside the pier, and we stayed in their house for the entire trip. The highlights of it were visiting Blarney kastilyo and halik the Stone, shopping in Cork City, and taking lots of mga litrato with wacky poses in Giant's Causeway. I even collected shamrocks during our tours and brought them back tahanan with me. In the end, it was a wonderful experience for all of us.

The First araw of School
The araw I started school was quite humorous and enjoyable at the same time. I was the unique one among my classmates because of my fair skin, which resulted in some of them wondering if I was a foreigner. The teacher was also amazed sa pamamagitan ng my intelligence and how I did well in most of the subjects. I was ahead of my parents during the reviews as well. Once, my mother got surprised when she saw me pagbaba the sentences in the English lessons aloud. She said, "Rosie, you already know how to read! I'm so proud of you!" I smiled and winked in return. This made me feel grateful to have the special gift of being a fast learner. I was very friendly to all of my classmates, too. Also, during this time, my fluency in English increased. It truly was a great start for me, and despite getting excellent marks, I remained humble and always thanked my parents and teacher for their help.

Becoming a Beatles Fan
My parents introduced me to the Beatles sa pamamagitan ng the time I was a toddler. The first song that I heard from them was "I'm Happy Just to Dance With You", which remains one of my favorites up to this day. I couldn't help but dance along to the infectious beat. My mother then showed me a litrato of the band, and I gazed at their sweet faces admiringly for thirty seconds. Soon, I was listening to their other songs, mostly from the early years. I also watched A Hard Day's Night and Help!, to which I couldn't stop laughing. It was officially the moment I became a huge Beatles fan, and thus, even though I was unaware of it at first, was also the start of an exciting journey that I would never forget as I started school.

Kelly requested me to do this, so here I go. I know things have been rough. You had a rough childhood, and it isn't fair. Of course, nobody ever sinabi that life was fair. No matter how terrible things were and still are, please know that I am your friend. If you ever need to talk, I am only an inbox away.
I admire that despite everything you have been through, you never became bitter. Don't ever change, Kelly. It would be heartbreaking if you did. No matter what anyone says, you are wonderful the way you are.
Even if there are storms, just remember that the sun is shining somewhere. I will help you see the light when it gets dark. I will be a shoulder to cry on. I want you to know that all of your mga kaibigan you have made here care about you. You can talk to us about anything.
Just remember that lyric from one of my favourite Beatles songs, "Any time at all, all you gotta do is call, and I'll be there."
Peace and love,
-Paul
