Here's the caption:
"17 palang ako nung nalaman kong buntis ako. Nahiya ako. Napressure. Pano ba naman, e ang tataas ng expectations sakin ng tao. Mula preparatory schooling hanggang grade 6, 1st honor. Pagdating ng highschool, honor student (till 3rd yr lang. 4th yr super tinamad na). Laman ng quiz bees and pageants. Maraming acad achievements. Kilala kami ng boyfriend ko sa school. Idol idol pa kami ng iba. Naalala ko pa yung sinabi sakin ng teacher namin sa HS “naalala talaga kita kay (di ko matandaan kung Ariela, Shamcey o Venus Raj), wag ka muna magbubuntis ah! sasali ka pa sa Bb. Pilipinas”, ganyan yung mga expectations nila. Kaya nung naramdaman kong parang preggy nako, naiyak ako. Nasa isip ko lahat ng disappointments nila, mula sa mga magulang ko, sa teachers, mga kaibigan, at sa lahat ng nakakakilala sakin. Pero one day, naisip ko “bakit ako magmumukmok? oo, nakakahiya kasi nabuntis ako ng maaga na hindi ko pa nasusuklian mga sacrifices sakin ng magulang ko, pero blessing to. bakit ko ikakahiya? bakit ko itatanggi?”. Sabi ko, palag palag na, kahit magpositive ako, push lang. Happy parin!"
She added:
"Sept. 2, birthday ng boyfriend ko, nagPT ako. Boom! Positive nga. Naiyak sya. Sorry ng sorry sakin. Kiniss nya yung tyan ko. Sabi nya sakin nadagdagan yung birthday gift ko sa kanya. Maraming situations na muntik mo ng ikapahamak nak. Bago ko pa malaman na nandyan ka na, ang likot ko sa PE, nadulas ako sa school, todo sayaw ako ng wellness 2 (as in sobra talaga. graded kasi bes), naglakad ako mula UCC hanggang New Haven (nagbleeding ako nun. kala ko period ko lang), di ako nakakakain minsan (ubusan pera bes, daming reports and projects), may di magandang nangyari (basta yun na yun), nastress ako ng sobra, depressed ako (1month araw-gabi iyak. walang palya). Naalala ko rin, sumakit tyan ko nun (di ko pa alam na preggy ako), saktong walang gamot sa tindahan. Siguro will talaga ng Lord na di ako makainom ng gamot para di maapektuhan si baby"
