I hate our time together was cut short as we finished school. Like Ed Sheeran's song 'Castle on the Hill', they are the ones who 'raised me' and shaped me into who I am today. They influenced my taste in music, clothes and almost everything in my life they were a part of it. ]]> 2018-03-16 11:56:49 UTC https://padlet.com/istpratio/k521jitng20s/wish/242762609 istpratio https://padlet.com/istpratio/k521jitng20s/wish/242764880 Latest music by myself (Jerry) and my friends. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uk4684vNLIc]]> 2018-03-16 12:03:52 UTC https://padlet.com/istpratio/k521jitng20s/wish/242764880 istpratio https://padlet.com/istpratio/k521jitng20s/wish/242768016 My parent's most proudest moment and also mine.

Sadly they died 2010 and 2015 respectively. I was very young when my grandfather died and it was at a time when I was doing exams. My mom and I flew to the Philippines when we heard the news. I remember I had a terrible feeling when my father called my mom to break the news. I was around 12 when I went to my Lolo's funeral (it was my first time seeing a dead body). That event was where I cried hard for a loved one. It really had an emotional imapact on me.]]> 2018-03-16 12:31:12 UTC https://padlet.com/istpratio/k521jitng20s/wish/242775635 istpratio https://padlet.com/istpratio/k521jitng20s/wish/242777741 My Bestfriends introduced me to Kendrick Lamar and since then only deepened my love for rap and hip-hop]]> 2018-03-16 12:35:49 UTC https://padlet.com/istpratio/k521jitng20s/wish/242777741 istpratio https://padlet.com/istpratio/k521jitng20s/wish/242779612 I try to enhance my editing skills. ]]> 2018-03-16 12:39:37 UTC https://padlet.com/istpratio/k521jitng20s/wish/242779612 istpratio https://padlet.com/istpratio/k521jitng20s/wish/242780926 I decide to purse Multimedia Arts and that decision has given me a few ups and downs because I'm constantly out of my comfort zone.

I spent a lot of time with my Lola and i can say i got to know her much better beyond the stories of my mom. I miss my Lola and everyday I wish she stayed in Dubai with us, Maybe then she wouldn't have died of dementia.
