CURRENT MISSION to be able to meet some cool people and hang out with them ABOUT ME Mabuhay,I am Josephine Barbi, a speech communication graduate from University of the Philippines. I am a former staff of student publication way back in college. I write feature stories that were based from my personal experiences. I am outgoing and very spontaneous. I am talkative. I will probably die if I will not be able to communicate with my significant others. I love meeting people and also learning their unique culture. I am also adventurous. I love to experience everything. How it feels like flying. How it feels like jumping off a bridge. I love to take risk. I love to travel, learn, and use what I have learned to make a difference. Definitely, I want to influence other people. I want to touch lives in a way other prominent leaders did. It took sometime for me to comprehend that what I really want to do is to share with others what I have learned from my experiences and in school. This is the very reason why I want to teach. The reason behind why I want to enter the portals of graduate studies. Being a teacher is not just a noble profession it is a commitment. It is a commitment to mold minds and to instigate change. I may not be able to tell everything about myself right now. What I might tell you is just a piece of me. However, one thing is for sure, what I am right now; I owe it from the people who always believe in me. I am proud of what I am and what I am not. This means that there is a room for improvement. I only have one life to live so I make the best out of it. I have always been an active member of organizations that instigate change and promote peace. I always have that passion and commitment in helping other people and alleviate their plight. PHILOSOPHY Happiness is a choice..You choice to be happy..you choose not to be..Life is a matter of choice not chance..You can't live everything in your fate because you create and mold your own destiny.
