At the end of the day, everything I’ve experienced, every happy memory, every challenge, and every dream has shaped the person I am today. I’m still a work in progress, constantly learning, growing, and discovering new sides of myself. Life may not always be easy, but I believe each step, whether forward or backward, is part of a bigger journey that will lead me to where I’m meant to be. This is me: my story, my dreams, my heart, and I’m excited to see what the next chapters will bring.

# data[].attributes.body
The biggest influences and inspirations in my life are my family, my grandparents, my friends, God, my dreams, and even myself, because they all motivate me in different ways to keep going and become a better person. My family gives me love and guidance, my friends give me support and laughter, and God gives me strength and purpose. I also inspire myself by believing in my ability to overcome challenges and reach my goals.

This means that life’s challenges often require persistence and determination. Sometimes, one attempt is not enough to achieve success, and we have to keep trying, even after failure or setbacks. It reminds me to be patient, resilient, and committed to my goals, knowing that true victory often comes after repeated effort.

What are some fun facts about myself that others might not know?

# data[].attributes.body
Some fun facts about myself that others may not know are that I don’t understand or count numbers in Bisaya and Tagalog, especially big numbers, and I’m extremely afraid of syringe; whenever I see one or even think about it, I get dizzy and start to panic, which can sometimes lead to collapsing. I often find random wounds or scratches on myself without knowing where they came from. I guess you could say I’m a bit of a mystery, even to myself.

What are some of my future goals and aspirations?

# data[].attributes.body
Some of my future goals and aspirations include finishing my studies and becoming a civil engineer, a career I dreamed of together with my lolo who has already passed away. I want to choose a path where I can grow not only professionally but also as a person. I also hope to explore more of my interests, try new hobbies, and maybe even start a small business someday. Another dream of mine is to make my family proud and give back to them for all the support they’ve given me. Most of all, I aspire to live a life with purpose, surrounded by people who inspire me and bring out the best in me.

How have these challenges shaped me as a person?

# data[].attributes.body
These challenges have shaped me into a stronger, more understanding, and more resilient person. Transferring schools taught me how to adapt and be open to new beginnings, while balancing academics and activities helped me become more responsible and focused. Losing someone close to me made me appreciate life and the people around me even more. And in times of doubt and low motivation, I learned the importance of believing in myself. Because of these experiences, I have grown not just in knowledge but in character, and I carry those lessons with me every day.

One of the challenges I’ve faced in life was adjusting to a new school when I transferred in Grade 9. It was difficult at first to adapt to a new environment and make new friends, especially since I tend to be quiet around people I’m not yet comfortable with. Another challenge was balancing school and personal activities, especially when I joined extracurriculars like being a majorette while keeping up with my studies. But the hardest challenge I’ve faced so far was losing someone very close to me—someone I deeply cared about. It was a painful experience that taught me to value the people I love and grow stronger emotionally. There were also moments when I felt unmotivated or unsure of myself, but I’ve learned to stay hopeful and keep moving forward.

What are some of my proudest accomplishments?

# data[].attributes.body
Some of my proudest accomplishments include representing my school as a majorette in various events and joining competitions like Damath and PresCon during my elementary years. I’m also proud of myself for adjusting well when I transferred schools in Grade 9 and eventually graduated from Buanoy National High School. Another accomplishment I cherish is when I started a small project selling keychains made from fuzzy wire and beads—this gave me a sense of independence and creativity. These moments may seem simple, but they’ve made a big impact on my confidence and growth.

I have a wide range of hobbies and interests that keep me entertained and inspired. I love watching K-dramas, romance, and thriller movies, as they always keep me hooked with their exciting plots and emotional twists. I also enjoy listening to music, reading novels and manga, and watching anime and cartoons during my free time. I'm always open to exploring new hobbies—one of the things I want to learn someday is crochet. I also tried making keychains out of fuzzy wire and beads, which I sold at a low price before I decided to stop. These hobbies allow me to relax, express my creativity, and discover new things about myself.

My educational journey began at Matab-ang in Toledo City, where I studied during my elementary years. For high school, I first enrolled at Toledo City Science High School, then transferred in Grade 9 to Buanoy National High School, where I graduated. Each school I attended played a big role in shaping who I am today, helping me grow both academically and personally. These experiences taught me how to adjust to new situations, stay focused on my goals, and value every part of my educational journey.

I grew up in the peaceful and lovely province of Toledo City. Life there is simple but full of joy, and I spent most of my days playing outside with my friends and family. Every summer, I would visit my grandparents in Lucob, a small place in the municipality of Balamban. Those summers were always exciting—we would climb mountains, swim in the river, pick fruits from trees we found along the way, and visit a cave that has a beautiful waterfall where we could swim and have fun. Growing up in these places taught me to love nature, enjoy simple adventures, and treasure time with the people I care about.

I’m an extrovert at heart, joyful, talkative, and full of energy, especially when I’m around the people I trust. I love deeply and care strongly for those close to me. At first, I might seem quiet or shy, but once I feel comfortable, my true personality starts to shine. People call me by many names such as Kat, Kitkat, or even Kitty, but at home, I’m simply “Ate,” the caring and dependable older sister. Each nickname tells a story, and all of them reflect different sides of who I am.
