Introduction
At first, you may see me as a quiet (and somewhat cold) person, but it’s not like that. In actuality, I’m very loud and obnoxious when it comes to my close friends. It’s not that I’m afraid of people. I just like my solitude, and hate it when people force me out of my “shell”.
But even with that, don’t be afraid of talking to me. I enjoy both thought-provoking and stupid/random conversations. Whenever something comes out of my mouth though, it’s mostly random jokes consisting of humor that is mostly sarcastic, but can consist of other types. I’ll also give advice and/or constructive criticism when needed or asked.
Education
Currently I am a junior attending high school with Honors classes. I’ve been gifted with academic intelligence, and my GPA of 4.0 proves this statement. Since middle school I have taken honors, advanced, whatever-the-heck-you-call-it classes to “challenge” myself. I take pride in having excellent grades, although I do get lazy from time to time completing assignments and whatnot.
Main Hobbies
Music is a big passion of mine. I love singing, and I’m in a high school concert choir that is known both regionally and internationally. I’ve been in a choir of some sort since middle school. I also play piano, and compose my own music from time to time. I started playing when I was 8, and learned a little bit of things on technique and all that other stuff on my own until I was 13. At that point in time my dad hired a piano teacher, and I’ve had one ever since.
Designing things on Photoshop is also one of my other favorite things to do. I don’t design a lot anymore, but I love manipulating things and playing with different colors and effects. I can be creative sometimes, and I love making all sorts of various graphics, particularly abstract designs and photo manipulations. Besides that, I like pretty much anything that has to do with expressing myself. Writing, drawing, blogging, you name it.
The rest of my hobbies are listed on the main about me page, but these are the ones that I like talking about.
Future
Since high school is nearly coming to a close for me, I have finally decided what college I’m going to. I’m going to a local university since my parents are running low on money, and my relatives need me to stay so I can care for them.
As for a possible career, website designing and/or website programming is my number one option. I know that it’s a very competitive field, but it interests me more than anything else, and it pays well. But if I ever change my mind, being a psychiatrist, pharmacist, and/or interior designer doesn’t sound too bad either.
I’d also like to travel to more places around the world in the future. But the places that interest me the most in visiting are: Canada, the entire continent of Europe, China, Japan, and back to my ancestors’ homeland: the Philippines.
