Hello everyone, I'm Paul Justin D. Señagan, 21 year's old, and I'm passionate about personal growth, and living my life to the fullest. I believe that my personality is defined by my values, kindness, maybe and determination.

Every day I strive to be the better version of my self. By learning from my experiences and the people around me. My journey is driven by desire to grow, improve and guide me through life's challenges and opportunities.

I was born and raised in Tapon, Putat, Tuburan, Cebu, a rural community which I consider as one of the happiest places in the world in my opinion, despite being as simple as it is. Being raised in a community and being in close proximity with nature also taught me the importance of determination, and having the passion to hold on to one’s culture.

My academic journey began in Tapon, Putat, Tuburan, Cebu, where I went to kindergarten. I went to my first two years of primary schooling in Putat Elementary School then I was transferred to Pusok Elementary School where I finished my primary education. For high school I went back to my hometown and applied to Putat National High School and graduated from there.

Currently, I'm a second year college student at Cebu Technological University Tuburan and I am striving to get my college degree and become a self-disciplined individual in order to reach my goals. All the experiences that I have learned in each level of my education remain as my motivation to strive for my objectives.

In my free time, I enjoy playing games, watching anime, and catching up on movies. Drawing is also a passion of mine, as I find creative expression through art to be both relaxing and fulfilling. I have a deep fascination with art, architecture, and structures, whether it's intricate buildings, beautiful statues, or unique designs.

I’m someone who enjoys peace and quiet, often seeking out calm spaces to relax and recharge. These hobbies and interests are my way of connecting with both my creative side and the world around me.

5. What are some of my proudest accomplishments?

# data[].attributes.body
I think one of my achievements, particularly would be, during on my elementary years. I consistently ranked among the top students, and one of the things that I am most proud of in my life is that I was actually born. This may sound rather cheesy, but the fact that my parents were willing to have me and bring me into this world is something that I am very proud of.

I think that growing up, where my parents were always here for me, supporting me in every possible way, has made me the person I am today.

6. What are some of the challenges I've faced in life?

One of the most challenging moments in my life was losing my grandfather during the COVID-19 pandemic. It was a difficult time for my family, as my parents had no stable jobs due to lockdowns, and we struggled to provide him with the medical treatment he needed. My Tita, Tito, and my Uncle were the only ones supporting us financially, and despite our best efforts, my grandfather passed away after several weeks.

I’ll never forget the day he was laid to rest - February 12, just 2 days before Valentine’s Day. It was heartbreaking, and the pain of that loss stays with me. It was a moment of deep grief for our entire family, but it also taught me the importance of resilience and cherishing the time we have with loved ones.

Going through these challenges has also made me stronger and more aware of how precious life is and how it should be lived. It has also helped me appreciate the family and the encouragement that we get from each other especially in times of difficulty. It has also made me a stronger person as I have learned how to cope with loss and how to never give up.

One of my biggest goals in life is to become successful, so that I can repay back to my parents, even if it’s just a small way of repaying the sacrifices they made for bringing me into this world. Their love and support inspire me to work hard and strive for a future where I can make them proud and provide them with a comfortable life.

I don’t consider myself as having fun facts as to who I am. Maybe one is I sometimes feel that I am not as intelligent as people perceive me to be and yet I don’t know? Perhaps that is the case with everyone and that is what makes me different maybe.

Life is relative as we can see it from different points of view. It does not always work in our favor, but that is the reason making life worthwhile. Embracing the unexpected is what helps us grow and find purpose.
