Another thing I enjoy doing in my free time is playing musical instruments! I can play an array of instruments such as: Guitar, Drums, and Piano! Although since I am learning all at once, I am not a master at one. I do often enjoy singing too so I am in a way just good enough in all areas.

Spicy food is one of my favorite types of cuisine, but I'm the only one in my family who enjoys it. I developed a higher spice tolerance than my family members due to an experience I had when I was a child.

Candies and Soft Drinks was one of the things that I was banned from consuming ever since I was a child, even until now! Ever since I was banned from eating them, I never grew to like them or dislike them as I've never tried.

I like to think as school as a place for me to learn and a place where I can secure a future. When I was young, my parents forced me to always do good in school and only school that I was not taught basic skills and chores in the house. After my parents regretted the way they raised me, school stopped becoming a priority and just something for me to complete but became something I want to do for myself but not put all my time and effort just into school. I live by a principle that school is not all I need to be successful in life because there are other important skills needed in life that school can't just teach.

I believe that having emotional intelligence is an important factor in intelligence that school cannot teach just through textbooks and lectures, so I believe that learning of my own emotions and owning them is a great skill to have that can help me handle social situations and myself better.

Being able to learn how my brain works and the ways I study helps me acknowledge the way my brain works and how I can use its strengths to the best of my abilities and also find where I am lacking.

During infancy, one thing that my parents always repeatedly told me was how I was a giant child who was above the average weight compared to other babies and even though I was a large child, I was notably very quiet and my parents and caregivers always commented on how easy it was to raise me as I did not cause tantrums often.

During this stage in my life, I had learned the basic skills of a person, such as walking and talking. While I was at this stage, my parents were very active in finding a hobby for me and letting me explore the world,, I underwent aikido training just for a few months as seen in the picture, but I also took piano, basketball, drum, and badminton lessons as well during this age.

At this time of my life, most of my core hobbies and interests had been developed, such as playing badminton as I have had training every summer for it, as well as getting grades in school, this was the happiest time of my life as I was still young and was still enjoying my time.

At this point, I had become a constant honor student, had fun hobbies, but only a few achievements, as I was not a very ambitious person; I just did what was enough and spent my time doing other things. Notable achievements were winning intramurals for badminton and playing tournaments within my training group. I spent most of my days studying, playing and talking with others as I had no phone or social media during this time.

I entered high school during the quarantine era, so I had less experience of an actual high school life than other generations. My f2f high school classes during grade 9, grade 7, and grade 8 were boring years, and I had no friends nor social media during that time, so it was a very isolated time for me. I formed many close friends during this time and learned how socializing works and who to keep close to you. I also discovered myself deeply, including my values, virtues, interests, and goals. I became a tranquil person because of the challenges that life had brought upon me and I think that it helped formed me to be the person I am today. My priorities in life now is my relationship with God, my self growth and to keep the peace around me.

Talking about my parents made me realize how much I treasure them, although they may not be perfect at times, they still provided me with the life I have today and that is something I am thankful for.
