My family is my greatest influence. Watching them push through hardships just to give me and my siblings a better future fuels my determination every single day. They are my reminder to always work hard in achieving my goals in life. Also, to have faith and never lose hope.

And as for my greatest source of strength and inspiration, it would be GOD.

Actually, I have two philosophies in life, "Hakuna Matata" and " Taking one step at a Time".

Hakuna Matata is a philosophy or a catchy phrase from the movie I love entitled , " The Lion King". The phrase means no worries, a reminder for me to breathe, let go of unnecessary burdens and to find peace. But that doesn't mean ignoring problems, however choosing not to be consumed by them.

For me, taking one step at a time means a lot. It reminds me that its ok to learn and grow slowly. Progress doesn't have to be fast. What matters the most is that i can keep going even with taking small steps at a time.

Life is not a race, its a rhythm...

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

# data[].attributes.body
☕ I’m a certified coffee lover. Whether it’s a hot cup in the morning or an iced brew during study breaks, coffee is my go-to comfort drink. As a matter of fact, there are times that I drink coffee 2-3 times a day.

🐾 I have a soft spot for animals.

In fact, I have two dogs, two cats and two birds . I find peace in being around with them and I often catch myself smiling whenever I see cute animal videos.

🌸 Flowers make me happy.

I love seeing them bloom, especially in our garden (my auntie is a certified plantita ) or even just by the roadside. There’s something calming about their colors. My favorites? chrysanthemums and roses.

🎧 Music is my everyday companion. Whether I’m studying, traveling, or just lying in bed, there’s always a playlist playing in the background. It’s my escape, my inspiration, and sometimes, my therapy.

🤍And also, I'm a certified mama's boy...

What are my some future goals and aspirations?

# data[].attributes.body
As an aspiring civil engineering student, my biggest goal is to become a registered civil engineer. And with that, I want to give my family a life they deserve. They've been my support system through every step, and I want to repay that love and sacrifice by making their lives more comfortable.

Another dream of mine is to travel. I want to stand in places I've only seen in picture, taste new foods, meet various people and create memories. There is so much out there to explore and I want to see it with my own eyes.

How have these challenges shaped me as a person?

# data[].attributes.body
Every challenge I’ve faced in life has become a lesson, a turning point, and a part of my growth. The pressures, the quiet battles with self-doubt, and the emotional weight of personal struggles didn’t just test me, they shaped me into someone more resilient and disciplined.

These challenges taught me that growth doesn’t happen in comfort, it happens when we’re tested, when we fall, and when we choose to rise again. I am who I am today not in spite of the challenges, but because of them. And while I know life will continue to bring more, I also know now that I have the strength to face them and grow even more.

What are some of the challenges I've face in life?

# data[].attributes.body
Life hasn’t always been easy. Behind every medals ,ribbons and certificates I’ve earned, there were challenges that tested not just my abilities, but also my mindset.

One of the biggest challenges I faced was academic pressure. Balancing multiple subjects, endless deadlines, and the expectations often felt overwhelming. There were nights when I stayed up late finishing schoolwork while fighting off exhaustion. Managing my time was another ongoing battle. Trying to juggle school, responsibilities, and a little time for myself was never easy.

Still, I pushed through...

What are some of my proudest accomplishments?

# data[].attributes.body
One of the milestones I’m most proud of is being a consistent honor student from elementary through senior high school. During SHS graduation, medals were hanging around my neck and ribbons proudly pinned to my graduation toga, I walked up the stage with my head held high. But what made that moment truly unforgettable was seeing the proud smiles on my parents’ faces as they stood beside me. That feeling of making them proud and honoring all the sacrifices they made is something I’ll always carry with me.

Looking back, this achievement remains one of the proudest chapters of my life. And I am hoping to accomplish more in the future.

One of my hobbies, I've grown to love the most is chess. My father introduced me this game when I was in elementary, and as someone who loves logics and strategizing, I became hooked to this game. I also enjoy other board games such as snakes and ladders, scrabble and checkers.

I also enjoy and love watching movies, especially those with interesting and surprising plot twist. Aside from that, I am a huge fan of anime and I spent most of my time reading manga/manhwa/manhua and sometimes novels especially those with fantasy and sci-fi genres. I also do crafts and artworks sometimes especially when I am really bored.

Another thing that keeps me going is music. Whether I'm studying, travelling or dozing off after a long day, listening to music helps me feel calm and relaxed. As a matter of fact, music has became a part of my everyday routine.

And I do love and interested in sports and instruments but I'm not good at it.....

It all strated at Asturias Central Elementary School (ACES) ,where I developed my love for learning especially in science and math. Then later on, I spent and finished my High School and Senior High School life at Looc Norte National High School (LNNHS).

Now, I am a 2nd year and soon to be 3rd year college student taking Bachelor Of Science in Civil Engineering ( BSCE) at Cebu Technological University Tuburan Campus. And as for the reason for choosing this course, well it really suits my interests and I thought it was fun.

However, if there is a part of my educational journey that i treasure the most, it would be my high school and senior high school years. Well, I still enjoyed my elementary years since those were the years I participated in academic and extra-curricular activities the most.

I grow up in the humble and quite town of Asturias in the Provide of Cebu where life moves slowly, simple and deeply connected to nature. My morning always began with the sound of the roosters crowing, the sweet hymns of the birds, and the radiant appearance of the morning sun.

I am Julimar, but most of my friends call me Juli, Marjuli, or simply Mar. I am someone who is fascinated of how thinks work and how can they made better. Whether it's solving problems or designing something new, I enjoy using logic, creativity and a bit of trial and error to make ideas come to life.

But beyond school and studies, I am a person full of curiosity and creativity. I enjoy discovering new thinks, thinking deeply and making sense out of everything. Whether I'm imagining ideas, researching fun facts or just dozing off, I try to grow not just a student but as an individual.
