BEST THINGS IN 2020

01 | 01 | 2021

1.) Joined a writing contest and was able to make it to the top 10.

This was during the SKPF Feb-ibig Event Poem Writing Contest. The title of my piece was Panaghoy sa Kasing-kasing nga Nabuak. You can read it on my poem anthology book on Wattpad and Booklat entitled, Writings of the Insignificant Girl.

2.) Having known Kento Yamazaki.

This is by far one of the bestest thing 2020 gave me. I wouldn't elaborate here further why Kento's very special to me in many ways. I'll be writing it on a separate blog entry this February where I will be celebrating my first year with him.

3.) Having known SB19.

Another best thing. If you don't know, SB19 is a Filipino boyband group who were trained under a Korean entertainment company. And by the way, they are not Kpop copycats. In fact, these boys, my lovely babies, are aspiring to promote OPM and Ppop worldwide through the music they create. Why do I love them? It's because of their song Go Up that's about pursuing your dreams no matter what and never giving up on them.

4.) Finished reading 9 books (4 of which are Dan Brown's).

Last 2019, I was only able to finish 5 books and I'm happy I improved on 2020. If only I am not a natural/born procrastinator, I would've finished at least 25-30 books that's all on my tbr list. Anyway, I will try again this year and double the number. 🤣

5.) Being able to publish my anthology book of poems on Wattpad and Booklat.

No further details to be exposed. I'm just thankful I found the confidence to do so. 💖

6.) Being able to write 3 short stories and publishing them on Wattpad.

Check it out on my Wattpad account and see for yourself how frustrated of a writer I am. 🤣

7.) Being able to start writing my novelette and drafting the outlines of 5 others. (Although what I originally planned is to finish writing Memories of You last December🤣)

8.) Launching a Facebook page with my two pretty writer friends.

Check out Shereigns, friends! 😉

9.) Finally graduating as a Peer Educator.

One of the biggest achievements I had this year. Thanks to PopCom, IPHO Siquijor, and our SKMF president. 🥰

10.) Having my own fur baby.

I might have become unexpectedly single again during the last 2 months of 2020, the good Lord had it replaced with my cutie happy pill, Kobidoy. 💖

11. Finally, for having been blessed with another year.

I feel elated for having been able to reach 22 years and I'm praying that the good Lord will bless me with more. 😇

Things may have not gone according to my plans but I still believe in the goodness of the Lord. Just being able to wake up everyday is already a blessing. So with everything that's about to come for this new year, I have my hopeful heart open.

I pray we'll all have a wonderful year ahead. Always believe in the magic of new beginnings and trust in the faithfulness of the Lord. 😇❤️

November: "PRODUCTIVITY"

11 | 29 | 2020

November was a month of suprises, blessings, and self-discovery. It was a journey I didn't expect that would turn out be to one of the best I've had. Although I lost a loved one in an unexpected manner, I've gained more friends who share the same vision and advocacy.

I consider this month also as a month of healing, discovering self-love and worth, and how God is working on my life. Indeed, when the Lord calls you to it, He will bring you through it. This month I was productive with my part-time work; I got a number of clients with my freelance online work; and finally, after more than a year of waiting, I am now officially a peer educator. Although my writing journey was suddenly suspended because of a lot of things that happened this month, I already got a plan for that and I'll be working on those this December. One step at a time.

Working on my dreams, helping in providing for my family, and working on my advocacies as a youth leader makes every sacrifice I had done worth it. So one day when I am old, I will be able to say to my younger self, "You've done good."
