Ciao! Konnichiwa! Hola! Bonjour! 
Hello everyone! I'm Rhea Mae Enicuela, 15 years old turning 16 in 3 months. I decided to join #fundmytravel because of some financial issues and I though this could help. I know that you're not responsible for my fees and it's not your duty to make someone's dream come true but I would like to ask a little favor, please help me save money so that I can pursue my study. I'm in 10th Grade and next school year I'm entering Senior High School but due to lack of financial support, I'm afraid continue my studies. We all live in the same world, we all breathe the same air, we are under the same sky, we stare at the same moon, but not all of us has the same opportunity to grab. I'm from Philippines, as you know, the Philippine archipelago is composed of 7,641 island but still some islands are not yet discovered. Let's say there are 10,000 students graduated from a public high school, about 7,000 of them are going to different universities and the rest will stay at home doing some house chores. Just like the 7,641 islands of the Philippines, some students are exposed, yes, exposed to new technology and new ways of living, but how about the other children who can't afford to go to a prestigious university? There are schools offering scholarships, but those scholarships are not enough to support almost million students. I'm just one of those million students, there's nothing special about me but I badly need your help. As you can see, there's a picture of a flower above, well, I like to take pictures, that's the least I can do. I also wrote some peoms but not as good like the other writers. Here's my poem entitled "Untold": 

This simple piece of paper shows,
How my love for you slowly grows,
Every word here is just a seal,
That what I feel for you is real.

The darkness and the glowing light,
Boundary between love and fright,
Judgment arises like strong wave,
I'll hold on and show them I'm brave.

I know somebody owns your heart,
I pray you'll never be apart,
You can now fly high like a dove,
Together with the one you love.

If we're meant to be, let it be,
But if we're not, I'll set you free,
The warm feeling didn't get cold,
Though my love for you is untold.

I do believe that there's kindness and generosity in your heart, even if you don't know me personally.
