Select ONE person who you consider to have inspired you and provide a short background of this person.
The person i have chosen who has inspired me is my dad. He was raised up in the Philippines with 2 brothers and 4 sisters with my dad being the second youngest child. He was born in 1955 and had moved here in Australia in 1985. He then brought his family of 2 children to Australia in 1994. He is currently working in the NAB bank working in the loan department. And is happily enjoying his life with his loving family
Discuss briefly why you consider them to be inspiring.
I have chosen my dad because he had told me his life when he was a young youth like me back in the day. He told me his life was hard growing up in poor life but he overcame it. Each day he would work to earn money for his brothers and sisters whilst he still went to school during the day. He told me through the hard times and the bad of his life he was the only member of his family to receive a degree and to go into college. From college he then graduated and move into Australia to raise a family and to earn money to help his brothers and sisters in the Philippines who are less fortunate then he is.
