"Noong una po talaga, nagparegister lang ako sa school dahil sa mga classmate ko.Nagkaayaan lang po. Hindi ko po alam bakit ako nagvovolunteer. Basta ang alam ko, kapag nakikita kong may natutulungan ako, sobrang saya ko. Favorite part ko noong sa bandang build po. Kahit sobrang pagod, masaya sobra. Lalo na noong may babae akong nakakwentuhan na taga-doon."

"Bayani Challenge made passing blocks of cement and sacks of gravel down a mountain, riding jeepney along two mountains and back, and fixing a school room feel like the most natural thing you can do on a Friday, or a Saturday, or any day of the week. It made helping people you haven't met and probably never will again feel like the most natural way to live your life. And God, I could've stayed there. But since I can't, I just brought it with me. The warmth of the residents, the energy of the mountains, and the heart of all who chose to be there. All of it. That way, I could live it everyday."
