Despite being a complete beginner, the process I went through was very fulfilling as well as the challenges and hurdles along the way. Today, I can say that I am far more knowledgeable as compared to when I started, while still recognizing the numerous needs for improvement. More than self gain, this newly-gained ability allowed me to be of help to my peers and friends for many projects that involve video editing.]]> 2022-02-11 01:54:25 UTC https://padlet.com/adriandeguzman/qp9tiqnw2etsqzc1/wish/2041519571 adriandeguzman https://padlet.com/adriandeguzman/qp9tiqnw2etsqzc1/wish/2041540601 In November 2021, Typhoon Ulysses struck the country and caused massive flooding in many areas, including our community. This may not be my first time experiencing such a catastrophe, but recovering and getting back on our feet after such a phenomena remains difficult and taxing. Not only did it impended the normal functioning of the community, the flood also resulted in delays in the academic calendar. Thankfully, we were able to recover through the help of my friends, relatives, and my classmates who went as far as initiating a fund drive to help those seriously affected by the typhoon.

If you do not know, Axie Infinity is a NFT-based crypto game where players can earn money as they battle using digital pets called Axies. As a new payer, I have not earned much yet and I have been lately experiencing stress due to difficulty of the game, but I know that my hard work will pay off. I hope to become a better player so that I can provide a little help for my family.

After 2 years of communicating through the screen, I got the chance to celebrate Christmas with them in person.

Coming from a long rest, I was not mentally prepared so I was overwhelmed by the number of tasks and extracurricular activities. This led to a lack of sleep and bad time management.
