Hi! I am Daniel Jay S. Malalis. Most people call me Daniel but peeps from my hometown call me DJ.

# data[].attributes.body
I was born in January 12, 2008 in Toril, Davao City. I used to study in Toril from Kindergarten to Junior High but I transferred to AdDU in SHS

I am a Top500 Scholar. Back when I was in grade 10, my friend and I decided to try applying for scholarship in AdDU for fun and experience. But unfortunately, I was the only one to pass.

I actually consider myself as average. But I think that with effort, one can become excellent. Excellence isn’t something you’re simply born with, it’s something you build over time through persistence, learning, and dedication. It’s about taking small, consistent steps every day to improve, whether it’s learning new skills, pushing yourself out of your comfort zone, or simply staying committed to your goals. While talent might give someone a head start, it’s effort and determination that ultimately make the difference in achieving greatness.

We were 2nd to perform, so we were very nervous. The pressure felt even heavier knowing we had to follow the first group, who set the bar high. As we stood backstage, waiting for our turn, the anticipation was almost unbearable. Our hearts raced, and our minds were filled with worries "What if we make mistakes?" "What if the audience didn’t respond well?" But despite the nerves, we reminded ourselves why we worked so hard and decided to give it our best shot.

# data[].attributes.body
I didn’t think of anything other than to smile and do my very best. In that moment, I realized overthinking would only make me more nervous, so I focused on staying present and giving my all. I reminded myself that this was a chance to show what we had practiced for and to enjoy the experience, no matter the outcome.

We were very nervous and honestly weren’t expecting to make it to the top 3. But lo and behold, we were announced as 2nd Runner-Up! It felt so surreal, like all the nerves and hard work had paid off in a way we didn’t dare to imagine. Hearing our cluster’s name called was such a proud and unforgettable moment.

# data[].attributes.body
After the announcement, we were so happy and grateful. It was a mix of emotions, relief, excitement, and pride. We couldn’t stop smiling and cheering, knowing that all our efforts had been recognized. It was a moment we would cherish, not just because of the award, but because it showed us the value of teamwork and giving our best no matter how nervous we felt.

This was actually the first event I have ever joined since coming to AdDU SHS, and it was such an amazing experience. It was fun, exciting, and nerve-wracking all at once, but it showed me how rewarding it is to step out of my comfort zone. After this, I’m definitely planning to join more events and make the most out of my time here.

During the Reading of Honors for the 1st Semester, I couldn’t help but feel a mix of emotions. It may not be the kind of recognition I used to achieve, but I’m still incredibly grateful. This moment reminded me that every accomplishment, big or small, is something to be proud of, as it reflects the hard work and growth I’ve experienced along the way.

Laag after card day is the best 👍 (we actually still had a lot of activities and projects to do 🥹😭)

Our first club engagement was such a fun experience! It felt great to reconnect with nature after a stressful period of schoolwork. Being outdoors, breathing fresh air, and taking a break from all the stress really helped recharge our minds and spirits. I’m so happy I chose this club!

# data[].attributes.body
This was during Club Day when I was walking around looking at the different club booths. As I was walking, I happened to come across a booth with a Mingyu stand in it. Being a fan, I couldn’t resist checking it out, and before I knew it, I decided to apply. It felt like a fun opportunity, and I was excited to be a part of something new!

The first thing I check in the morning 🌞. It's my main app for communicating online.

# data[].attributes.body
This is where I say, "Okay, just 30 minutes, then I’ll get back to my schoolwork." But before I knew it, I was hooked for 8 hours!

This is where I watch movies and animes instead of Netflix because I don't want to spend money. 😭 It’s my go-to for all the latest shows and films, and even though I’m missing out on the fancy subscription, it gets the job done without costing a thing!

# data[].attributes.body
I recently watched this, and I’d say that it’s good, but Moana 1 is still the best. The story, the music, and the overall vibe in the first one just hit differently. While the sequel was enjoyable, it didn’t quite have the same magic that made the first one so special for me.

# data[].attributes.body
I wanna watch this 😭 but I don’t really have time to go to the movie theaters. With everything going on, it's hard to find a free moment, and I’ve been really hoping it would come out on streaming soon so I can watch it at home!

# data[].attributes.body
My favorite app! This is my go-to app whenever we have activities that require editing. It’s so user-friendly and has all the tools I need to make everything look polished. Whether it’s for school projects or just for fun, I always rely on it to get the job done.

# data[].attributes.body
A great app for looking for inspiration! It’s packed with ideas for anything from creative projects to personal goals. Whenever I’m feeling stuck or need some fresh ideas, I turn to it for motivation and new perspectives.

# data[].attributes.body
My favorite app! A lot of people might say that it’s for kids, but it’s actually for all ages. It has a variety of games you can always play, whether you want something casual or more competitive. But, be careful as there are a lot of toxic people on there, so you have to be mindful of the environment. Despite that, it's still one of the best apps to have fun with friends.

# data[].attributes.body
The game I always play when I don’t have data, when I’m in a jeepney, or when I’m bored at school. It’s perfect for those times when you just need something to pass the time, and you don’t need an internet connection to enjoy it.

# data[].attributes.body
I don’t really use FB that much and haven’t posted anything in 5 years. I mostly just use it to keep up with trending news and what’s happening around. It’s become more of a tool for staying informed rather than a social platform for me.

# data[].attributes.body
As a Ateneo SHS student, this is the app I use to do my courseware activities.

I like these media because they make life easier and more fun. They help me stay updated with news, kill time when I'm bored, and even spark some creativity. It’s just nice to have something to turn to whenever I need a quick break or want to learn something new.

How are these media influencing or affecting me? (my lifestyle, aspirations, attitudes, behavior). Is this healthy? If yes, how come? If not, what steps should you take to change it?

These media affect me in a lot of ways. They help me stay informed, keep me entertained, and sometimes inspire me. But sometimes, I get carried away and end up wasting time, which can affect my productivity. It's not always healthy because it can distract me from important things. To make it better, I should set limits for how much time I spend on apps and focus more on things that help me grow, like reading or spending time outside. That way, I can still enjoy these media without letting them take over.

Thank you for making it to the end! I really appreciate you taking the time to read and reflect with me. It’s not always easy to sit down and think about how things affect us, but it’s a good way to stay grounded. I hope this helps remind you, and me, to keep balance in everything we do. Here's to making the most of our time and using media in a way that benefits us!

This is where I listen to music. It’s free, which is great, but the ads can get really annoying if you don’t have premium. Still, it’s one of my go-to apps because it has a huge variety of music, and I can always find something to match my mood.
