KNOW ABOUT ME

As it can be seen in my photos, I
am into fashion and projecting. I
have a creative mind and artistic
side which is really helpful to my
interests and beneficial to hop
on trends today, especially on
uploading aesthetic
photography and modeling. I
think Korean fashion has been a
huge influence on my fashion
style as I grew up watching
Korean Dramas and Korean
Idols.
This kind of activity is what I just
recently worked on during the
COVID-19 pandemic lockdown,
and in those three years it is
surprising how it drastically
changed me to gain confidence
and pushed me to discover what
I can actually do.

INDSETI strongly disagree on the saying H

" Money can't buy

happiness".


This may seem dense,
but I want to work hard
to be rich to enjoy the
things I believe I
deserve, provide for my
family, and rich enough
to donate to extend my
hands to others who
are in need.

I also don't believe in the phrase

" m e a n t t o b e " or

DESTINY

I have once read,
is it your fate to watch
the stars above that you
are just content on where
you are standing,
accepting to not
reach them when
you can work hard
to land to the
moon.

Simeon family

A complete family picture with our new angel

FAMILY BACKGROUND

Originally, we consist of five members in the family. My beautiful
mom, my ate in the middle, my handsome dad, and my kuya on the
right side, and me to the opposite side.

Now, we have an angel, my nephew to the side, and I have a new older
brother and older sister in law, married to my older siblings.

My parents aren't strict so we grew up in a carefree environment where
we are able to express ourselves and do what we want. Thus, we built
trust and are responsible to our actions as being the children, and
brothers and sisters. Meaning, there are no restrictions when I want to
go out with my friends, but still aware to the decisions I make whether
it's right or wrong. This description may be dreamy for others,
especially for teens, but every family has flaws. What is important is that
we should learn from it and still love them.

Certainly, all of us has been affected by the Pandemic can be considered as my past now and it

my life has been

COVID-19 pandemic 2020 COVID-19

past or present

Superpower

It haunts me when I did impulsive
actions out of my emotions. If I am
able to go back, I want to change
the words I uttered that have hurt
the person in the past. Words are

powerful that it is sharper than a
sword. Those words that came out
from my mouth could have affected
the person to his/her entire life just

because out of anger. I just wish
that I have been more mature and

mindful to the words I say.

Stopping the age of humans at
the age of 30 and live long how

they like

This age is when we have intact physical figure and is
healthy enough to do what we want. Facing death is

not something to be afraid of, but the things and
people that we will no longer have when we leave.

Personally, I want my physique to stay on what it is
today. But, my main reason is that I want to achieve
greater things in life with my parents witnessing it and

it worries me that I still have a long way to go to
reach it and they will be too old. If only that we live

longer, we will be able to enjoy life at its finest.

3 realizations

money

The power that money holds. It is not because of
having its property, but how it can provide a better
and easier life and bring joy when it is used in the
right way.

independence

I can be independent yet I can still be dependent
to my trusted people and ask for help when I am
having a hard time.

courtesy

We have different struggles in life. It can be
stressful for each so being kind and considerate
may be a help for others.
