Me

Here are a few things about me so I don't lose myself
1. I love music. I love playing the piano and the drums most. 2. I love writing. Usually my style is dark/tragic romance. 3. I love chocolate. Chocolate over strawberry and vanilla. 4. I don't eat marshmallows. 5. I love pizza, but I prefer thin over thick crust. 6. I love dark fiction. I love stuff by Tim Burton, Neil Gaiman, Lemony Snicket. 7. Coldplay is my favorite band along with Industries of the Blind. 8. I am a fan of One Direction. 9. Pink carnation and not rose is my favorite flower. 10. My favorite color is black, although it is actually the absence of color. Next would be baby pink, teal, electric blue, chocolate brown, gray and cream. 11. I love swimming, which is my only sport. 12. I love books, although I need to get into a certain mood in order to finish one. My favorite books would have to be the Harry Potter series (I love the whole Potter fandom... I'm probably one of the biggest Potterheads you'll ever meet) One book that I genuinely enjoyed reading is Girl with a Pearl Earring. For some reason, that story stuck to me. I have a lot of other books that I really delighted in reading as well but that would take me a while to list. 13. I have a talent in drawing/painting which I wasn't able to hone. 14. I am not very good at Math and Science because I don't read that much. I have a fucked up study habit. I believe that if I tried really hard, I can excel in both fields. 15. One horrid habit I never got rid of is nail biting. 16. I love my Cerezo family a lot. As in a lot. 17. I love my mother unconditionally. I love her very much. 18. I love my boyfriend very much, too. He's my best friend, and just keeps on making me a better person. 19. I love my voice. 20. I love public speaking. I like engaging in debates, I like being a radio DJ. Anything that involves speaking "creatively". 21. I love cats probably as much as I love dogs, but I can associate myself more with cats and felines so that seems more apparent. 22. I speak more comfortably in English than in Tagalog specially when writing. 23. I like giving and receiving handwritten letters. 24. I like to cook. I have a sophisticated sense of taste. Things I want to improve about myself 1. Being antisocial. I usually keep to myself but I would like to get to know people more. 2. Be a better friend. 3. To be fit. I seriously want to commit and get results slowly but surely. I want that summer body! 4. Get hard-earned stellar grades. Education isn't free, so I should make the most out of it. 5. Stop overthinking. It kills, literally and figuratively. 6. My writing. I should write regularly. 7. To not let myself get affected by negative comments and baseless hate. I should focus instead on constructive criticism that are there to help me. 8. My faith, that I don't only remember God when I am in need. 9. Give my boyfriend sufficient space. 10. Spend more time with my mom (if school allows me.) 11. Fix my priorities and be consistent! 12. Be involved with my sport and eventually try other sports. 13. Spend less time in the internet. 14. Stop dwelling in the past and actually mean it. 15. Work on my insecurities. Things that improved with me so far 1. Being less impulsive when it comes to buying unnecessary things 2. Becoming more organized with my things 3. Not being too clingy, expanding my horizons slowly and realizing there is a world outside my relationship 4. Being able to handle things maturely specially when it comes to sensitive issues like my dad 5. Being able to discern things in a sensible and more positive way 6. Consistently writing in this blog (although not daily) 7. I can cook now! 8. I do my own laundry now, too 9. Gained more friends |
“In most books, the I, or first person, is omitted; in this it will be retained; that, in respect to egotism, is the main difference. We commonly do not remember that it is, after all, always the first person that is speaking. I should not talk so much about myself if there were anybody else whom I knew as well. Unfortunately, I am confined to this theme by the narrowness of my experience. Moreover, I, on my side, require of every writer, first or last, a simple and sincere account of his own life, and not merely what he has heard of other men's lives; some such account as he would send to his kindred from a distant land; for if he has lived sincerely, it must have been in a distant land to me. Perhaps these pages are more particularly addressed to poor students. As for the rest of my readers, they will accept such portions as apply to them. I trust that none will stretch the seams in putting on the coat, for it may do good service to him whom it fits.”
