the end; we have chances to work in other countries without leaving our family; HR activities are done in
the Philippines; vision without mission is just an ambition; accountancy is the profession that will bring

of honesty and integrity; I want to become a cpa to have an impact to the society and an instrument of
God; I need to work in excellence because it’s God’s handwriting; I was born winner for I was chosen; my
difficulties are my blessing in disguise; to never give up in my mission; to be an advocate of
