I
have two brothers, two stepbrothers, and a stepsister; my two brothers
and I were born in the Philippines and came to the United States of America,
particularly Pensacola, FL, on May 1994. I went to Pensacola
Junior College and graduated with an Associate of Arts degree in Biology/General
Studies on June 1996. I, then, joined the US Air
Force on February 1997. I was stationed in Keesler
AFB, MS working in Keesler Medical Center's 81st
Medical Group as a Health Services Management Journeyman (Series:
4AO). Outpatient records clerk, aeromedical evacuation technician, personnel
administrative assistant were among my assignment titles. After four years
of loyal and dedicated service, I was honorably discharged. |
With
my three precious bundles of joy, two male American
Eskimo dogs named J.C. and B.J.
and a female Pomeranian
named Xena, I journeyed back to Pensacola,
FL. Rooting from the military, I have become an animal
rescuer and have even become the North Florida Chapter Representative/Director
of American Eskimo Dog Rescue (Heart Bandits)
as I returned to Pensacola. Being out of the military, I was able to devote
more time into active rescuing. This, unfortunately, has taken a toll
on my health, especially my emotional well-being. I am not as active as
I used to, but whenever possible, I still offer assistance with animal
rescues. |
In
2001, I started studying a martial arts form called Tang Soo Do, another
form of Tae Kwon Do, under the teachings of Ron
Little Martial Arts school. The school's located right next to the
Flip Factory, where my brother
was studying gymnastics under a coach named Isaac. In 2002, I enrolled
at the University of West Florida as an undergraduate
student majoring in Interdisciplinary Information Technology with emphasis
on Web Development and minoring in E-Business, Computer Information Systems,
and Internet Technologies. As for Isaac, I found out that he was studying
martial arts in RLMA and attending UWF, as an Army ROTC cadet and computer
science student, as I were. On December 2002, I got engaged to a wonderful
man. Yes, the kind and loving man was Isaac
Matthew Bonney. In July 2003, I tested and achieved my black belt
in TSD; Isaac was already one. |
On
December 2003, I received my Bachelor of Science degree. I, then, took
a few graduate courses. From January to May 2004, I was enrolled at UWF
as an graduate student majoring in Instructional Technology (Masters of
Education). Isaac graduated on May 2004 and was inducted as a second lieutenant
(in June 2004). No longer enrolled, this was when I stopped working in
the SAIL/Computer Lab as a computer
support technician and Computer Science department
as a grader and tutor for the Internet Programming course. |
On
August 2004, Isaac and I drove to Las Vegas and got married in one of
Vegas' drive-thru chapels: the Little
White Wedding Chapel's Tunnel of Love. Isaac was on training from
July until November. I worked as a freelancer --- creating, updating,
and maintaining web sites for others --- until we relocated to Clarksville,
TN on December 2004. We were to go to Fort
Drum, NY, until he was offered an opportunity to be stationed to the
"Home of the Screaming Eagles," 101st
Airborne in Fort Campbell, KY, two weeks prior his report date. Isaac
believed that aside from being one of the most famous US Army posts, 101st
Airborne in Campbell offers a better chance for career advancement. Fort
Campbell is located on the border of Kentucky and Tennessee. We have decided
to purchase our first home in Clarksville, TN, instead of throwing more
money away by renting. |
