This was the start of a tradition in which we travel back to Medellin every summer to enjoy the beach and spend quality time together. Because of this, I see Medellin as my 2nd home and I love to go there every summer. All good memories in Medellin.]]> 2020-10-27 06:44:40 UTC https://padlet.com/moiraenoveso26/e3uee1kvl6qneq81/wish/864622855 moiraenoveso26 https://padlet.com/moiraenoveso26/e3uee1kvl6qneq81/wish/864630303 When I transferred to Ateneo in grade 7, I realized the environment and the people were very different from my previous school. Many of my classmates were quite friendly and genuine. This made me want to become a better person. Now, I try to reflect on my actions every new year and see how I can be better towards others and myself.]]> 2020-10-27 06:48:13 UTC https://padlet.com/moiraenoveso26/e3uee1kvl6qneq81/wish/864630303 moiraenoveso26 https://padlet.com/moiraenoveso26/e3uee1kvl6qneq81/wish/864633795 I was able to join the Summer of Service program in school in the summer before grade 8. I was very shy and a little intimidated as my workplace was in Ayala and I live in Consolacion (my parents had to drive and pick me up). But, through this experience, I was able to see the perspective of retail workers and some of the challenges they face. It was especially challenging for me to communicate with costumers as I am not fluent in Bisaya. Nevertheless, I really appreciate all the kind customers, and co workers, who were patient and understanding with me. This experience reminded me to be kind to everyone and stay humble.]]> 2020-10-27 06:49:54 UTC https://padlet.com/moiraenoveso26/e3uee1kvl6qneq81/wish/864633795 moiraenoveso26 https://padlet.com/moiraenoveso26/e3uee1kvl6qneq81/wish/864644079 Honestly, I wasn't very sure at first if I wanted to audition for TAG because I was also thinking of starting a sport (swimming) in school. In the end, I auditioned for TAG and I fell in love with theater and all the work put behind a production. I met many kind and talented people. At grade 7, I was already inspired to become to future TAG President (and I did become the president in Grade 10). Today, I am so honored to be the SPOTLIGHT Governor.]]> 2020-10-27 06:54:22 UTC https://padlet.com/moiraenoveso26/e3uee1kvl6qneq81/wish/864644079 moiraenoveso26 https://padlet.com/moiraenoveso26/e3uee1kvl6qneq81/wish/864651451 When I became part of the honors class in grade 8, my mindset really changed. I remember feeling like I didn't deserve to be part of the honors class as I wasn't really working hard academically in the previous school year (I was one of two students in the class who didn't receive a medal). But I started to realize that instead of sulking, I should focus on proving to my classmates and myself that I deserved to be in that class. Throughout the year, my class learned we weren't the toxic competitive type, so I'm grateful for having that kind of environment. I am also thankful that I remained in the honors class til' the end (grade 10). ]]> 2020-10-27 06:57:44 UTC https://padlet.com/moiraenoveso26/e3uee1kvl6qneq81/wish/864651451 moiraenoveso26 https://padlet.com/moiraenoveso26/e3uee1kvl6qneq81/wish/864665071 It's pretty cliche I know, but this relationship really taught me a lot about myself. When it ended, I learned to focus on myself; I had decided that I didn't want another relationship anytime soon and that I want to focus on my academics and my friends, especially, for the remaining school years I have with them. This relationship also helped me realize how I should be treated (hehe my boyfriend now is the best).]]> 2020-10-27 07:03:48 UTC https://padlet.com/moiraenoveso26/e3uee1kvl6qneq81/wish/864665071 moiraenoveso26 https://padlet.com/moiraenoveso26/e3uee1kvl6qneq81/wish/864674910 this was really heartbreaking for me. I recently became friends with this new student in grade 11, and we became reallyyyy close to the point we would actually call pretty often. But certain things had happened and I ultimately decided to end the friendship. This actually taught me a lot about healing. I was really sad the day I ended it but I believed I would get better over time. Most of the time I would forget about him, but some days I would remember and be in a pretty down mood. I was able to learn, however, that its okay to put myself first over my loyalty to my friends (I still love all my friends now ofc, but now I remember that I should ultimately be my first priority).]]> 2020-10-27 07:08:11 UTC https://padlet.com/moiraenoveso26/e3uee1kvl6qneq81/wish/864674910
