Hello! My name is Maristella Aimi T. Shiroma but you can call me Aimi. I am a grade 12 student in Ateneo de Davao University Senior High School and I am currently 17 years old turning 18 this July. My hobbies are watching movies, documentaries, and listening to music.

What inspires me?

matshiroma — 2025-07-03 08:39:12 UTC

I have encountered a number of challenges that really tested my patience and resilience. But what really inspires me to keep going is knowing that all of this hard work will pay off in the end. I’ve always wanted to become a nurse and work abroad. So, whenever I feel like I’m losing motivation, I just remind myself that everything that I’m doing right now has a purpose as long as I keep going.

A quote that I live by

matshiroma — 2025-07-03 08:59:12 UTC

“Any time you worry about someone judging you, that is really you judging yourself.”

- Joseph P. Kauffman

I live by this quote because a lot of people tend to overthink or worry about how people may view us. But in reality, we really don’t know what others are thinking, it’s just us making those assumptions because we are aware of our own weaknesses in a way that makes us think less of ourselves and we overthink or fear that other people may notice it as well. Eventually, I stopped caring so much about what other people thought of me because in the end, I know myself better than anyone else and I realized that it’s okay not to be liked by everyone because even I don’t like everyone either.

A Letter to My Future Self

Infancy

Friday the 13th, a day that is considered unlucky. But personally, I think of it as a lucky day because it was the exact day I was born and given a chance at life.

Early Childhood

matshiroma — 2025-09-05 03:35:49 UTC

During this stage, I was known to be a very energetic, talkative, and bubbly child around people I was comfortable with. I'd start singing and dancing out of nowhere and would just talk nonstop even though I wasn't making any sense. My favorite memory during this period, was when we'd visit many different places and I got to explore and feed into my curiosities and wonders as a little kid.

School Age

Grade school days was where I peaked academically. I would get line of 9's on almost every subject and would join quiz bees (mostly for English or AP). My favorite subject at the time was Araling Panlipunan and it was always the highest grade in my report card. Meanwhile, my least favorite subject has always been Math, even until now, and probably up until I finish school. Sadly, back in 2020, my batch and I didn't get to experience a face to face graduation because of the lockdown

Preschool Years

matshiroma — 2025-09-05 07:27:35 UTC

This was when I was just starting school and hated it. I preferred staying home to watch my favorite cartoons like Doc McStuffins, Phineas and Ferb, Ever After High, Monster High, etc. I was also very shy and reserved in school but once I became comfortable, I was able to make new friends and enjoyed playing with them during breaks or dismissal.

Adolescence

I would say that this stage is where I learned the most about myself. This is where I discovered all the interests and personal values I have now. I became a more calm and introverted person, selective of who I choose as my friends, got rid of the people pleaser personality and became more assertive and communicative. One of my favorite things to do with my friends is having those deep conversations where we get to share our different perspectives and opinions on certain topics or just talk about our future. I also discovered one of my favorite hobbies which is watching documentaries specifically about astronomy and true crimes. Overall, at this age I learned how to maintain healthy relationships, enjoy my own company, and value myself more.
