She has a monkey pet given to her by the "mangyan" natives from the Mountain.
They have a popular Carinderia at Socorro, it's well known to be clean and have a lot
of delicious , good food, aside from being friendly but tough when it's needed.
Shy went to school at Socorro Elementary School, then she went to high school.
Her mother put her on a semi Private school at EMITS , Pinamalayan , Oriental Mindoro.
She was a good student..her mother is so proud of her, she gives her support
for her schooling , and always with her in every activity. She never left her side.
Her Grandfather is the only fatherly figure that she ever know in her life.
The times comes , Shy is now going to college. her mother is worried for her,
Shy can't be alone in Manila, It's a big city and Shy is from a small town of Socorro
where everyone knows each other and cares for each other and Manila is different story.
It's the Capital City of The Philippines.
Her Mother decided to move to Manila and they stayed at Quezon City , where her younger , siblings live.
Once in awhile they went to visit her family and brother's who lived in Candelaria, Quezon. It's a Province of Quezon...All Shy's auntie and uncle lives there. All her cousins too .. Everyone is in Candelaria. She loves that place , every year they left Mindoro to celebrate
Christmas and New Year with all the family. It's always a big gathering,Like a reunion.

Shy's mother is now worried of what's life gonna be in Quezon City.. It's new for her. It's new for Shy and they don't know much about city life.
Good fortunes and opportunity knocks on her mother's door..She open another carinderia in Quezon City. Become popular and known to have a delicious food. Shy was trained at young age, very well trained and she help her in everything, like they always do when their were in Mindoro, waking up at 4 AM to start the cooking and preparing for the carinderia
