FA 1: Getting to know me

rbalizado — 2025-07-02 07:28:47 UTC

Hi! My name is Ryuu Ondrean Balizado, and I’m 17 years old. I love playing volleyball and badminton, and I enjoy watching Netflix in my free time. My favorite colors are pink, sky blue, and purple because they reflect my fun and creative personality. I have a passion for modeling and dream of becoming a successful fashion model and businesswoman in the future. I also enjoy taking pictures of the places I visit, especially when I go to fancy restaurants or dress up to visit stylish cafés—capturing the beauty of the moment through my lens. One day, I hope to travel to my dream destinations like Switzerland, New York, Dubai, Japan, Canada, and Korea to explore the world and chase my goals.

This is my favorite photo of myself—taken on prom night, wearing a black, classy dress—because I truly feel like I look like a model straight out of a fashion magazine.

In Grade 10, I never imagined joining a pageant—especially with no experience and a fear of public speaking. But stepping on that stage taught me confidence, self-expression, and resilience. It became a turning point in my high school journey, opening doors and inspiring me to face challenges boldly.

At 15, I joined my first fashion show and walked the runway for the first time. It boosted my confidence, let me express myself through style, and sparked my interest in the fashion world—one of my favorite teenage memories.

I’m at Disneyland on my first trip abroad with my family, and it feels like a dream come true. Every moment—the rides, the magic, and being together—heals my inner child and creates memories I’ll always treasure.

I’m 3 years old in this picture. When I was 3, I loved designing my clothes, playing dress-up, playing with Barbies, and putting on my own fashion shows at home!

This was me in my preschool years, trying to look cute for the camera.

Back when I was in 6th grade during quarantine, I was so bored that I did a photoshoot at home, copying a model I saw on social media—my kuya took this photo.

I hope you’re doing well and living a life you can be proud of. Some of your dreams may have changed, but I hope you held on to the ones that truly matter.

I want to see you graduate in college, be independent, be happy, and achieve your goals. Most of all, I hope you become a professional who worked hard and never gave up.

Take care of yourself, stay kind and humble, and never forget where you came from. Whatever challenges you face, I know you’re strong enough to get through them.

I believe in you—keep going!

With love,
Your Past Self ✨
