Hi! My name is Nicole Auza. I was born on November 11, 2007 and influenced by both the quiet and loud moments. I presently reside in Davao City, yet portions of my heart still roam and crave my hometown, Tandag. I am often drawn to meaningful talks, the bittersweet beauty of time passing, and invisible strings that tie all of us together. Because wether I’m at school, writing, or listening to music, I always try to stay present, knowing that time is fleeting and every regular moment could be exceptional in retrospect.

Carpe Diem, seize the day. Like a flower that opens to the sun each morning, my values thrive in the light of purpose and passion. I cherish kindness, resilience, and compassion, weaving them into every choice I make. To me, each day is a canvas filled with hope. Courage makes bold strokes, while empathy fills the gentle spaces. By living fully and loving deeply, I honor the brief wonder of time, turning moments into meaning and dreams into life’s sweetest blooms.

I’m someone who finds comfort and energy in music—it’s like the soundtrack of my days. I love immersing myself in different moods, whether it’s the smooth soul of RnB, the raw energy of rock, the grit and intensity of nu metal, or the heartfelt emotions of ballads. Music isn’t just background noise for me—it’s where I feel most alive, most connected, and most myself. 🎶

Similar to a moth drawn to flame, I lose myself in books with effortless abandon—each chapter pulling me deeper, until the world around me fades and only the heartbeat of the story remains, wrapping me in its spell as if I were born to dwell within its words.

What began as the simple delight of pocketing bottle caps soon blossomed into a quiet passion—a love for trinkets that whisper stories in their smallness. Over time, that childlike wonder grew brighter, carrying me from humble keepsakes to the delicate charm of Pop Mart figures like Hirono, each piece a tiny universe of memory, magic, and meaning resting in the palm of my hand.

It all started when my family made me take piano lessons, something I didn’t really want at first. But over time, I grew to love it—and that love only expanded when I picked up the bass. Now, playing instruments feels less like practice and more like a fun part of who I am.

Though I’ve never been much of a sweet tooth, baking crept its way into my life—perhaps through the gentle influence of my older cousin, a chef whose craft inspired me. In the swirl of flour and the warmth of the oven, I discovered a quiet joy: not in tasting, but in creating little pieces of comfort.

I got into digital art thinking it would be easier than traditional drawing—undo button, layers, all that. But now I spend half my time fixing one line for an hour and arguing with my tablet. Still, there’s something fun about watching a messy sketch glow into a finished piece.
