Because it's where everything starts for me. At this stage is where I develop everything about myself, such as my consciousness and the like. The turning points in my life helped me to develop who I am today. Yes, I felt sad, like really really sad, but it made me realize things. I learned things. One of the significant people in my life are my friends, which I didn't indicate because I forgot when did we met or develop our friendship. I got a huge circle of friends before, but things change. And now they're only 3. The three of them were always there for me, but not this time since they are also busy with their academics and I'm not always with them. Maybe that's why I became like this. I always feel empty, and lonely. Because I always used to have someone to talk to when I'm stressed or sad, but now I have none. Though, it's fine because it's part of life and I need to get used to stand on my own. But if all these didn't happen, like the reduction of friends, maybe I wouldn't learn how to let go of people or things. Maybe if I didn't take voice lessons and had a mall show, my self-confidence today would be more lower. A lot of things may change I something didn't or did happen in my life. Maybe I'm not at this field right now if I didn't study well in Junior High.

In 5 to 10 years, I expect my timeline will be more on travel, work and more life experiences. I expect this timeline to mature and see a lot of achievements here. Not just an "honor award" but a degree award. I want this timeline to change a lot. I expect to see in that timeline how I changed and overcome my self-doubts.

P.S. I didn't use any template for this timeline, I made this myself. All the illustrations here are made by me (some of it, i copied from the internet, but my hands are still the ones who did those). ❤]]> 2018-03-18 17:07:18 UTC https://padlet.com/shainamadrid/bfoysccwtmpu/wish/243216268 shainamadrid https://padlet.com/shainamadrid/bfoysccwtmpu/wish/251018167 Write down five things which made you feel grateful about in your middle and late adolescence stage or things that can be relatively small in importance but made you remember a good event, experience, person, or thing in your life — then enjoy the good emotions that come with it.
1. IT Movie - Something happened the day I watched this movie that changed my life—the reason why I became a better person. I really love how that the went for me. That's why the movie is a memorable one for me.

2. Infinitea - This cafe is a memorable one for me. A lot of memories were made here since 2015, especially with my best-childhood-friends.

3. Coloring Book - This thing is what I always wish for my parents when I was a kid. I've always love to hold coloring materials ever since. This hobby is where and when I started to be engaged with art. As I grew up, crayons changed to colored pencils to watercolors to acrylic paints to digital. Maybe, if I didn't started coloring books, I'm not a multi-media arts student right now, or maybe I'm not inclined with artsy stuffs.

4. Bed - When I was a kid, I never saw the importance of beds. I didn't give importance to sleep. I've always want to stay up late and stay in my
playroom. But as I grew older, I realized the importance of bed. Staying up in bed doesn't only mean to sleep, but also to reminisce, think deeply, dream and rest. 

5. Moon - I've always been in love with the moon. When I was a kid, my parents grounded me and just let me stay in the house for almost two years. I missed out a lot with my friends/playmate because I wasn't allowed to see them because they want me to focus on school and get a higher grades. Since then, I always stay in my terrace and just watch the moon all night. The moon became my friend. Whenever I'm sad or need to someone to share a story with, I look at the moon and talk as if it's listening to my stories. I'm not really close with my parents and my sister is busy in school so I don't have anyone to talk to. Since then, the moon became significant to my life.

    I've discovered that I have a lot of things to showcase and to be thankful for. 

2. What are your core strengths?
  My core strengths are not easily giving up and continuing the fight even when I lost all my hopes and reasons to go on.

3. What do you consider as your weaknesses, abilities and talents?
  My weakness is easily losing hope and being so pessimistic towards everything but I also consider this as my strength because the more pessimistic I get, the lesser that I expect good things to happen. And the less I expect, the less that I'll disappoint myself. Another weakness is not being good enough at something. Like I don't have any specialization. And I think my ability and talent is being versatile. Yes, I may not be really good at something but I can adapt to different activities. I may not be good at it, but at least I CAN do it.

4. What are the remedies you will take to improve or compensate for your weakness?
   I think the best remedy for that is having enough confidence and self-esteem. Because that's what I lack the most ever since I was a kid. And just believe in myself, and believe that I CAN. But the best remedy is, self-acceptance.

5. How can you further enrich your qualities, assets and strengths?
    By practicing a certain thing that I can do, and I know that I'll be good at. Like specializing a certain ability or talent of mine. And taking extra lessons during free time.

6. Where and how do you use it to your best advantage?
  I will use the qualities or assets I have, may be it negative or positive, to be a stronger and tougher person. I will use the strengths I have to gain more self-confidence and believe in myself that I can.]]> 2018-04-13 11:12:12 UTC https://padlet.com/shainamadrid/bfoysccwtmpu/wish/251494252
