In my 22 years of
existence, the Zamboanga Siege was the first war that I experienced for almost a
month unlike the Cabatangan Siege in 2001 that lasted a week or less. The war
that happened here in my hometown is very memorable to me and I will never forget
it as long as I live because it started on a Monday of September 9, 2013, the
day of my 22nd birthday.
