Hi, I am Emerald Jillian V. Caquilala. I am 17 years old and a Grade 12 student in Ateneo de Davao University Senior Highschool. My hobbies are drawing and making simple DIY projects whenever I feel inspired to do them. I love cats because they're so soft and adorable, even if they ignore me. On the other hand, I'm not a big fan of dogs and it's most likely due to the fact that I got bitten a few times in the past.

Believe it or not, 95% of my artworks contains zero color, whether digital or on paper. It's not because I hate adding color, but because I have no idea how to do it without ruining my drawings. The only time I color my artworks is when I use colored pens, but I barely use those. So, most of my works remain dull and colorless.

I think it's quite ironic that despite not being a big fan of dogs, I own two: a Shih Tzu and a Belgian Malinois. The both of them grew on me even though I avoided them like the plague when my father first brought them home. I still keep my distance from my Belgian Malinois though because he's almost as tall as me when he stands up and it scares me.

I'm not sure if it's obvious but I absolutely love the color green. My favorites shades of green is olive green and emerald green. It feels calming and very pleasing to the eye.

As I continue to grow and figure things out, I've come up with a few personal goals to help guide me. They may change over time, but here’s what I’m aiming for right now:

✦Learning color theory in the future so that I'll be able to apply it on my drawings.

✦Developing better time management.

✦Be more responsible, such as knowing which tasks more important to do.

✦Learn more about myself.

...and more.

Every time someone asks me a question, "What do you want to be when you grow up?" I always automatically answer 'doctor.' It's not because I want to be one, but because I don't know what I really want. And it's been plaguing my mind as long as I can remember. Call me childish for this, but I've been searching for something that I don't dislike and eventually, I stumbled on pharmacy. It's not too bad, aligns with my interests, and its pretty tolerable. I wouldn't say I'm completely sure about this even now but that's okay. Not everyone knows what they want the moment they open their eyes, some people just have to find something they grow into.

Aside from the two dogs, I also have three cats.

At first, it was just a simple youtube music video animation of two girls singing about love in a dystopian world. But as time went on, more videos were being posted, introducing new characters with their respective music videos, and before I knew it, I got completely hooked. I loved that the series was a 'show, not tell', making the audience deeply analyze the context of the lyrics and the symbolisms of the visuals shown on each music video. I also loved how beautiful the music was, and the characters have complex personalities, hinting that there is more to them than meets the eye. In short, it showed that no matter the situation, humans will always find a way to love, even if its twisted. This series was an absolute cinematic masterpiece and made me bawl every time a new music video was posted.

If someone asks me if I have a favorite song, I'd answer none. Why? Because I'll listen to any song no matter how bizarre it sounds. Just as long as it's catchy with a good beat.

Dear Future Self,

I hope you are still alive and kicking as I am certainly about to make bad decisions that will, in turn, make you hate me. No hard feelings✌️ Anyways, I hope that you, my future self, have moved on from the very show (ALIEN STAGE😡) that made us cry out our heart every time their account posts a video or comic related to the show because I sure have not💔. Anyhow, I hope you've figured out what to do with your life, even if your path largely depends on me🤐..ehe...😓Though, even if you haven't, I wonder where you are right now? Do you still like to draw? Watch silly shows? Read fictional comics or novels? The scent of paper? I hope you still do—it is one of the few things that makes us happy. Well, not that I really care. It's not my business to think about what you're doing right now—as my present and your past still have business to do😌 and I can't let my mind go into overdrive thinking about my future self's every single choice and move.

With love, peace, 23 cartwheels, 77 splits, and 45 backflips,

Emerald Jillian Caquilala

This is me when I was just a few months old, or maybe even a year. The only thing i remember doing at this age is sleep, cry, eat, and poop. I also remembered playing with dolls and plushies my parents gave to me. This stage was the best part of my life because I have not yet known the horrors I would go through just to live.

# data[].attributes.body
At this stage, I was about 3 years old. I don't remember much from my childhood but in this picture, me and my older brother were watching tv here and I seem to be focused on the media shown in the screen while my older brother has noticed the camera and posed. We seem to be watching a children's show here that is either my little pony or barbie.

It's nutrition month and the teachers were setting up activities for us to do. My mom dropped me off at school and took a quick picture of me before leaving.

I remember getting a school set that looked like make-up as a gift for the Christmas party. The highlighters were lipstick, the erasers was a blush, etc. My teachers thought I actually brought real make-up to school.

I don't remember where this was but I was with my family and cousins from my mother's side during summer break last year.
