My Bittersweet Life by Annika De Leon

Get to know me 🤩

addeleon — 2024-01-25 07:19:13 UTC

I am Annika D. de Leon. I was born on the twenty-fifth of November 2006, so I am seventeen and turning eighteen in the next ten months. I am an only child on my mother's side, but I have a half-sister from my father's side. If you're wondering what my gender is, I am a female who used to be bisexual since I had a crush on a girl a few years back, but now, I know I am 100% Heterosexual. FYI, I am not Homophobic. I support all people in the LGBTQ+ community because I believe that there's nothing wrong with being who you are unless you are doing immoral acts. 🏳️‍🌈

MY HOBBIES 😊

addeleon — 2024-01-25 07:35:24 UTC

💤SLEEPING💤 I am fond of sleeping, but lately, I tend to sleep for a few hours due to school assignments/tasks I must finish. Basically, after school in the morning, I use my laptop once I'm home to work on my tasks from the afternoon until midnight usually.

🎞️WATCHING MOVIE/SERIES🎞️ I love binge-watching movies or series, especially when I have free time since it helps in entertaining myself to avoid overthinking about personal problems in school and my family.

^{📱VIDEO CALLING WITH A BEST FRIEND📱 I enjoy calling my best friend from time to time because we help each other improve both in school and as a whole.}

MY FAVORITE SERIES📺

addeleon — 2024-01-25 07:41:20 UTC

This is a series where a medical director named Dr. Max Goodwin is reforming how the hospital runs to provide the best patient care. This series inspired me because I aspire to be a good General Surgeon one day, and aside from that, I learned new medical terminologies from this series.

Graduated at Ateneo de Davao Junior High School last April 2023 🎓🎓🎓🎓

addeleon — 2024-01-25 08:28:08 UTC

I graduated high school on April 28, 2023, at Ateneo de Davao University, Matina Campus. FUN FACT ‼️ I have stayed in Ateneo for 12 years now and I was fond of cooking during my High school days that's why I joined Culinary Arts Club and earned two Gold medals. I made cooking videos and used editing apps like Capcut, Canva, Kinemaster etc. to enhance my videos.

MUKBANG 🍜🍝

addeleon — 2024-01-26 11:18:23 UTC

I don’t know with me, but I enjoy watching people binge eat. I’m amazed as to how they can eat that many food and sometimes it makes me hungry for the food that they are eating. Aside from that, TikTok is one of the apps that I use especially when I’m doing nothing or taking short breaks because it has a lot of contents I enjoy and relieves my stress and mukbang is one of the contents I really enjoy watching. Oops- I just watched one and now I’m hungry 😅

Relflection 1.1 📖

addeleon — 2024-01-26 11:34:00 UTC

Why do I like media? I have three reasons. It keeps me happy, informed, and innovative. It keeps me comfortable because I interact with my close friends, especially with the person dear to me. It keeps me informed because I get to know what's happening more in the outside world. After all, I usually spend my time at home and in school. Innovative because by being able to navigate my gadgets and explore new apps and websites, I get the chance to improve my way of voicing out my solutions and opinions regarding problems revolving around the world, especially problems common here in the Philippines. I may be young, but I believe that gadgets are not only for entertainment but also a way for us to be knowledgeable enough and a way for us to help others, specifically marginalized people.

Reflection 1.2 📖

addeleon — 2024-01-26 12:34:29 UTC

These media are affecting me positively overall. Do you think this is healthy? Yes, because through media, I was able to overcome the sadness that I had been experiencing for months last year. Media allowed me to communicate with the person with whom I am safe and comfortable sharing my thoughts and feelings, which is a significant relief on my side. The media allowed me to be anonymous while expressing my feelings through countless online surveys and Q&As to answer questions I was curious about regarding my situation. Media also allows me to escape the real world, even for a short period of time. I feel like I have no problems to deal with, at least for a short period of time. Lastly, media allows me to be educated more than the usual setup wherein I am in a classroom, and I take down notes from the teachers because now I can dig deeper in my own time to learn more about life, my needs, my wants, and to avoid being ignorant as technology evolves.

Educational videos ➕➖➗

addeleon — 2024-01-26 12:56:19 UTC

I'm not fond of using YouTube, but I use it when I need help with my studies, specifically math. Khan Academy on YouTube produces informative videos that help us understand more about our lessons and gain new techniques to solve problems that may seem hard to figure out.

TIRED 💻📔👩‍🔬

addeleon — 2024-01-26 13:19:01 UTC

This is me literally almost every day. I am bombarded with homework and tasks that I must comply with and finish on time. Still, I believe this will be worth it sooner or later.

HAPPY 😁

addeleon — 2024-01-26 13:22:50 UTC

Every time I finish my tasks and there are no more pending tasks, it makes me feel so happy as well as makes me feel at ease, which helps me to get some sleep and allow myself to boost my self-esteem.

SLEEP 🛌

addeleon — 2024-01-26 13:24:11 UTC

I lack sleep because I study until midnight or past midnight most of the time, but using my phone and opening my social media keeps me entertained until I fall asleep. In conclusion, using media helps me sleep as well.

GALLERY 🖼️

addeleon — 2024-01-26 13:34:29 UTC

Every day, I take at least 5-10 minutes scrolling through my gallery and looking back at happy memories stored in my gallery, Snapchat, and Google Photos. This puts a smile on my face despite a busy and tiring day.
