The below is taken from the poetry book so if you read this, you may skip the introduction in the poetry book and read to your hearts content!
Most of you know me by many names. For internet purposes we will concentrate on the name 'DJ'. In 2010 I joined Wattpad. In 2014-2015 my appearance on Wattpad became less. Now that I am going to school in the Philippines I have learned that Wattpad is part of the culture here. So, to reach out to the audience I am surrounded by, I have created this journal.
I will write poems and share my thoughts much like I did in 2010. I'm sorry everyone for disappearing on you. Now that I am of legal age I need to share a secret with all of my followers. In 2010 I was fourteen years of age. I shared my thoughts, hopes, and dreams with all of you. However, I did keep one secret from you. Since I was not eighteen yet I was weary about people finding me in person. Now that I am twenty-two I don't mind as much.
To prevent people from finding me I switched my gender and changed my name. Over the years, I have gone by many names and I still won't share my given name to you all. But I will tell you that in the real world, I am a female. Writing in a male's perspective has helped me consider how the world treats both genders. My official writing alias is 'Danieljames Joaquin Domar'.
Here in the Philippines I go by 'DJ' instead of my given name. My given name gets mispronounced often which is why I have gone by many names over the years. My current goal is to become a certified Elementary Teacher by Filipino standards. My destination is to be a tutor in many subjects including languages.
Right now I am trying to learn the languages Filipino and Ilocano. Eventually, I will master Itneg (my family's mother language on my mom's side). You will be see me write in a mix between these three languages for practice purposes. I'm hoping by using them together I can eventually separate then fluently. By the end of this semester I hope to be fluent in Filipino but I know more Ilocano. If you are able to explain Ilocano or Filipino well, in English, please message me. I would love to talk to you.
I am currently living at a dorm in Tamag, Vigan City, Ilokus Sur because I am going to a the University of Northern Philippines. I am a first year despite my previous college experiences. I hope you enjoy this journal.
Feel free to add me on Instagram and follow my blog. Let me know so I can follow you back. The links to both my Instagram and blog should be on my profile. I'll update once a week for sure. The names in this journal will be different from the given names of the people I interact with for privacy purposes.
It's good to be back everyone. Let me know what you're thinking as I post. Editing my previous work will probably not happen right now. Fare warning to those of you who are new to my work... My old poems are not edited and they are also based during a darker time in my life. Thank you
