"Don't let your mind bully your body" - June Wood

Over the years, I’ve been really conscious of my body. My
self-esteem was really low to the point that it might
disapper. But thanks to my friends who hyped me and
reminded me that I am beautiful the way I am. Because of
them I gained my confidence and I started loving my own
body and appreciating my beauty.In conclusion, I came to
love my physical and sensual self. I learned how to love
myself.

AS YOU CAN
SEE, I’VE

CHANGED A
LOT. EXCEPT
FOR MY CHEEKS
. THEY’RE STILL

CHUBBY. I
REALLY DON’T
KNOW IF I AM

MORENA OR
WHAT. BECAUSE

AT SOME
PICTURES, I
HAVE FAIR SKIN
THEN AT SOME

TIMES I’M
MORENA.

EITHER WAY, I
LOVE MY

COMPLEXION
CUZ THAT’S

WHAT MAKES
ME,ME.

SOCIAL

Social Self

I am very shy when it comes to socializing but
because of these people I was able to
overcome that shyness and be able to express
my thoughts and ideas. And because of these I
was able to inspire and help people who are
need.

Saudi peeps where u @?

These are my friends who were there for me in my ups and
downs. They were the ones who accepted me despite my flaws.
They are the ones who lifted me.

My OG peeps hahaha.
Been with them since we were
kids. We are more like siblings
than friends hahaha. They're my
comfort and support. Especially
that guy over there hahaha.

Self- timed pic somewhere in Intramuros.
These three... wow, I can't believe that I
would meet you guys here. I thought I
wouldn't be able to make friends here
but you guys changed that. I am so
grateful of meeting you guys. kaya natin
toh! viva Mapua! hahahaI may appear
“masungit” or unapproachable, but I can
assure you that I am friendly and kind
hahaha. I’m just really shy since studying
here in the Philippines is new to me.

Some screenshots of my accounts

I’m not really that active on social media. I only use Instagram, and
facebook. I usually share my photography through Instagram. And I only
share travel spots on my facebook acc. In short, tamad ako mag bukas ng
messages.To all my chatmates: buhay pa ako, tamad lng talaga magbukas
ng messenger.

MATERIAL SELF

Food and Makeup

I love spending my money on food and makeup. I know
material things doesn’t equate to happiness but it

somehow it makes me happy. Whenever I accomplish
something, I would always treat myself. Treating yourself
isn’t bad at all, you deserve it. With this, you wouldn’t be

burned out from all the stress, drama, and school.

HUMAN LEARNING

Gig at Drag Coffee.
I've been singing for 15 years
and still am. I started singing
when I watched disney movies.
I didn't have proper training or
lessons because I didn't want
my parents to spend. So I
thought myself through the use
of Youtube. there, I learned
some basics and also learned to
play rhythm, lead, and bass
guitar. My friends also helped
me to improve my skills as a
composer and musician.

Camera + Corniche = happiness

I fell in love with photography because of
the beauty of Saudi Arabia. I mostly take
photos of nature, city lights, and food. My
current style of editing my photos is
polaroid or old film effect. Whenever I
take photos, it calms me and it makes me
see the beauty of everything that
surrounds me.

Tamang gawa lng ng plates sa coffee shop

As for drawing, it is the first skill or talent
that I discovered when I was child. My
parents supported me by buying me art
materials and enrolling me to classes to
further enhance my skill. because of this, I
am now striving to become a successful
Interior Designer in the future.

EMOTIONAL

EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE

Emotional Support at your service

Always here for you guys
Whenever someone I know feels down or having trouble with
something, I drop everything that I am doing and immediately
attend him or her.I am actually a very observant person. That is
why I am very aware of what my friends are going through. And I
am glad that I have a skill like this because I can be their
shoulder to lean on when it gets rough.

RE ME GOUT LI OANT IAOLN

Tawa siya ih. Muni-muni

Finally got to play with sand. Me admiring my was to be jowa char.

I rarely show my negative emotions in public. They also said “ grabe

ang kalmado mo.” And I agree with that. As my friends say, “ang haba

ng pasensya mo.” And yes, I do have a lot of patience. I don’t like

holding grudges. I forgive them easily especially if they are dear to

me. The reason why I am like this is because I learned to accept

whatever happens in my life. That whatever happens, I will move

forward to reach my dreams. And whenever I feel down, I always

remind myself that this is only temporary. That I’ve already

experienced the worst and that I can overcome this giant wave.

SPIRITUAL

Inner Soul

Others tend to go to churches to show their faith
towards God, but that isn’t for me. I am not an active
church member. The reason why I am not that active is
because the people who are active makes me feel like
I’m a person whose sins can’t be washed away. It’s sad
cause the remedy to my problem is Him yet I can’t get
close to Him because I feel bad. So instead of going to
church, I became a YFC member specifically YFC’s
music ministry. And there I became close to God. “ To
sing is to pray twice” said by ST. Agustine. And indeed it
does. I feel fulfilled and overwhelmed by the love of
Jesus whenever I sing. And with that, I will continue to
praise and worship the Lord through music. Amen!



CONNECTIONS WITH NATURE

Whenever I hear or read the word nature, I always tend to lean on
more in seas. It gives me a different feeling. Somehow the waves,
sea breeze, and the smell of the see makes me want to tell all my
deep thoughts or should I say the sea is my comfort whenever I
feel down. The sea has been dear to me ever since I was child. It
has seen my ups and downs. It has heard my laughs and cries. The
sea was there for me when no one was.

DISCOVERING
LIFE'S MEANING

In my 19 years of existence in

this world, I discovered that

true contentment and

happiness is being with

people who were there for

you since the beginning. My

family is the reason why I live

and love. We weren’t really

close to begin with. But ever

since I moved here in Manila

and my mom is in Cavite

while my dad is in abroad. We

made sure that we talked

everyday and to tell how’s our

day to one another. With this

little act it made me want to

live my life to the fullest.

EMERGENT

POLITICAL SELF

Here is me reading our reviewing our report about politics.

here is me smiling because I can't understand anything HAHAHA.
As you can see I just smiled because I really can’t understand nor
I am interested in politics. The reason why I don't engage myself
to politics is because it just adds up my stress. So no, thank you.

SF UE LTFU R E

Dear Jen, you’ve become a successful designer. You are able to
create or design rooms to provide comfort to other. Your hard work

dreams.
