Hello everyone! Long
time no personal talk…
Last week I had my
midterms. I have one midterm left that I will review today. (It’s about
contemporary history and it’s not that difficult). I’ll need to watch a few
youtube videos in order to review but other than that I should be fine.
This past month I’ve
focused heavily on my writing but not on my journal entries to you all and I’m
sorry that I haven’t been as on schedule as when I first left. I’m hoping that
my new project will help me keep up with writing to you all. I have photos
saved on my USB to have scheduled. I have more than a thousand photos on my
phone that I need to transfer to my laptop but I still need to post the
multitude of photos that I have from last year.
So, I have the
content. I haven’t been focused on my blog which is my fault. It’s exciting to
know that writing this blog will be a two way street. If I were to go home to
the United States, I can then keep my friends in the Philippines updated on my
whereabouts also.
I did update the
Q&A located to the right of these post. Google+ was removed so I had to
take down the button but for the most part all my blog is missing is content
(which I have!!!) If anything, I’m thankful for all the friends that I’ve made
thus far. My friends realize that distance does not limit a friendship and that
makes me more than happy.
People talk about
how they lose friends because they move away but I have very few friends that
I’ve lost because of this. If anything, I feel that these friendships that
unpause when we’re around each other make for stronger bonds than ones that are
limited to having to see each other on a daily basest. Granted, I do like
having someone physically around me for most of my days but overall, I can see
my friends after a long period of time and nothing has changed.
These are
friendships that I cherish and I try to be that friend for others because I
treat people the way I want to be treated. This project that I’m going to be
doing is going to take place on Wattpad but I will also post the results here.
I’m going to be rereading what I posted in my first week (at one point I stop
posting what week it was lol) and I will write any comments, changes, or
remarks about what I feel today verses how I felt the first time I got here.
What I do know is that
I have changed and I do good friends all around me. Next month will be my
birthday and I tried planning a few things with my friends and I found out that
I have more than I thought I did. Which is a problem but it’s a good problem to
have.
For those of you who
haven’t read anything outside of this blog, I’m still happy that you’ve read
this blog at all. If you are an active Wattpad reader please let me know by
following me and I will follow you back! I enjoy being able to talk to people
on that website because there’s a list of artist that are inspiring of
different ages and backgrounds… It connects people.
There’s a shelf the
two bookstores I’ve been to in this country and they have a Wattpad section. I
think that is so awesome that the website has reached out that to the point
where they’re selling actual books! I don’t foresee myself being on that shelf
specifically but I do eventually want to publish a book and I do know that my
friends who be willing to support me in this.
Half of the semester
is over! I cannot believe it’s already here. I’ve written about cultural
dilemmas in my poetry book on Wattpad. I feel that if I were to share them
here, y’all would enjoy them as well. I’m having to keep a name database
because I try not to spill actual names to the public but there are so many
characters in my life that keeping up with a secondary name is difficult.
Now that I think
about it, I suppose that I could schedule a poem once a week from my poetry
book and have the link to the poem added into the post so that people who read
this and who are on Wattpad can connect with me there as well. My friends have
told me that I would be a chibi in an anime. When I told my boyfriend this he told
me that I’d probably be the main character.
It’s adorable how
you guys look up to me but I’m so tiny compared to most of you. Today, I went
to go eat with one of my friends and I looked in the mirror on the opposite
wall and realized that I am super
light compared to him. Like, I’m borderline white on our scale of how dark we
are. I looked at my photos in the past and realized that I don’t really get
darker, I sort glow more instead of getting dark and that’s really weird to say
and try to explain but yea… I glow more instead of getting darker. It’s the
yellow in me guys.
There is literally
no possible way for me to cover everything in one post especially when I limit
myself to a thousand words but I don’t like rambling and I do know people want
to get on with their lives which is why I limit these in the first place.
Cool news though! I
finished my first poetry book since I’ve been back on Wattpad (September of
2018). This poetry book contains 100 poems about my life here in the
Philippines. It also contains poems about my mental health as well as my
relationships with people. I’m proud that I finished this book and I want to
share it with you all. I hope I can schedule the poetry. I have a lot to get
done on my blog and all I hope is that you guys will stick around to read it
all.
Thanks for tuning in,
DJ/Cho/Nar
