Who Am I?

Hello everyone, I am John Roman V. Macapobre, Im from Sangi, Toledo City, Cebu and I live with my father and my dog. I am a third year student currently studying my bachelors degree in Mechanical Engineering in Cebu Technological University Tuburan Campus. I describe myself as an outgoing person, very noisy with people I am comfortable with, bold but also shy when I am around new faces. My journey as a student has been both challenging and fulfilling. I decided to major in Mechanical Engineering because of my mother's influence but also this field has truly sparked my passion. So far, I’ve had the opportunity to dive into engineering related topics such as physics, math, math, math, math, and more math, which has been an incredibly enriching experience, kind of. Outside of academics, I usually just hang around playing mobile or pc games, I also enjoy reading books and online novels whether it be mangas to manhwas or just plain text. I’m also passionate about physical training such as going to the gym, which I find to be a great way to relax and balance my studies. I feel like that is all I can describe myself, but I am free for new experiences to expand my horizons and develop myself more as a person

My Biggest Fear

One of my greatest fears is losing the people I hold importance in my life. This fear holds significant weight for me because I have already lost somebody very dear to me 3 years ago which was my mother. She died due to Covid and other health related issues which was very sudden and hit me like a truck as a 17 year old senior high school student. This fear affects me in various ways, often causing sudden sadness during random nights, grief, guilt, regret, and a bundle of other negative emotions. However, I’m actively working on overcoming it. I see confronting this fear as a crucial part of my personal development because I understand that losing people in this world is but a normal occurrence especially since nothing is permanent and everything changes and I hope to turn this fear into a catalyst for growth and learning. Through this process, I am learning to be more compassionate with myself and to recognize the ways in which fear can reveal areas for improvement and growth. I believe that by facing this challenge, I can better understand my own limits and capabilities, give myself time to prepare for things that are unexpected and sudden, give myself more time to grief over the past experiences, and other things which will ultimately enrich my life experiences and contribute to my overall well-being.

What keeps me going

What motivates me and keeps me moving forward in life is my current support system or the circle of friends I have right now in college. This source of motivation is incredibly significant to me because they help me through times when I feel like I am all alone and have nobody to go to, they feel like they are my second family outside of my home despite not being blood related to one another, and they always push me to become the better version of myself. Beyond this primary source of inspiration, I also draw strength from my unaccomplished dreams in life that I will surely be able to reach someday even if it takes me a lot of hard work to get there. These additional sources play a crucial role in supporting me through both everyday challenges and significant life events. They help me remain focused and resilient, especially when faced with obstacles or difficult periods. I’ve found that staying true to oneself and always putting oneself above everything else serves as a guiding principle in my life. I actively work to try my best in moving forward each day with the thought of being able to achieve my goals someday while also paying back the people who helped me reach those goals along the way. Ultimately, the combination of friends pushing me forward and dreams that I want to achieve drives me to keep moving forward, even when things get tough. They provide a deep sense of purpose and direction, enabling me to pursue my passions and strive for personal growth. By integrating these sources of motivation into my daily life, I am continually inspired to overcome challenges and work toward a fulfilling and meaningful life.
