Myself. Do I really know me?

I actually enjoy these potential journal content that I found on Pinterest. It really do helped me on what to share and most of all, to know more about myself. 

So here it is, my next entry (thank you pinterest, once again)

"Know Thyself in 25 Questions: A Presonal Growth Exercise" 

1. What does your ideal day looks like?
- My ideal is spending the day with my love one, watching movies, chillin'. Just the two of us. Not very productive, but I think very relaxing :)

2. What did you want to be when you were younger? 
- Well I thought being an actress was a good thing. Since I watched too much movies and tvs back then. But I really want to be a fashion designer. I draw alot. Copying clothes from magazines and etc. But, things changed.

3. Who are you most inspired by? And why?
- Wow. As of now, I got no inspiration or an idol to look up with. But to be honest, not to be cheesy and all, I'm inspired because of Abel. Inspired to striving hard in this life. Striving to be an adult and be more of a responsible person. Inspired to move, be happy and be myself. And yes he thought me that. I remember I was always afraid if I won't be able to please anyone or not be good enough or to not get validation from other people, specially with my job. But he thought that I don't have to think of this things. He made me realized that as long as you did your job well, that's already enough. Though, sometimes I'm still afraid...  And I learned to love unconditionally. I think he's really my inspiration.

4. Who would you love to meet? What would you ask?
- I would really love to meet, many person in fact, but I think it would be

5. What habit would you like to break? And habit would you like to start?
- I'm not sure if its a habit but I'm the "kaladkarin" type of person. I always say "yes" for a night out or go somewhere. I'm that easy and get easily persuaded, specially for my closest friend. So that has to stop. I have to be more disciplined next time and learn to say no. Habit I need to start, I'm not sure if saving is a hobby? But yeah, Im saving/ seriously saving money :)

6. Think of a person you truly admire? What qualities do you like about that person?
- Hmm, I think this person would be my boss, Anton. I admire him for being intelligent and for being a good boss. He treats with respect. That's rare. I do admire him for that.

7. How do you like to relax?
- At home, with family and Abel is comfort at its finest. 

8. When is the last time you did something you're afraid of?
- I'm a coward. I really don't do things impulsively (though I'm an impulsive decision maker). Hmmm, I think one is Grand Skills and the other was dealing this client problem that will cost me 58,000.00 and I don't have that kind of money.

9. What are you most proud of?
- I'm proud of myself and what I've been doing, and what I've got now. It is not much. And I still have alot to earn to flourish in my career, but still I'm proud of myself.

10. What are you most afraid of?
- Now, 3 things. I can't afford to lose my family, Abel and my job. Mostly Abel, he's everything to me. I don't know what will I do if I lose him.

11. If life stopped today, what would I regret not doing?
- Not being able to hug and kiss Abel for the last time. Because right now, we are not together and we weren't able to talk to each other. So if life stops today, I will surely have many regrets.

12. Would you like to connect (or reconnet?)
- I'm not sure. But I think there's no reason to connect or (re-connect) with someone, right now.

13. What qualities to you admire in others?
- I admire other people's confidence. I don't have much confidence like some people I know. Aaaand, I admire those people who are so damn good in writing. I'm such an average.

14. What practical skills do you wish you had?
- Leadership skills. I'm never a leader. I'm always a follower. I'm not as good as a leader. So yeah. That's the skill I wish I had. 

15. Imagine I'm in my 90s? I want to have a great story to tell to my grand children and children. Iwant to share my challenges and success stories. I want them to know that their "grandma" is role model :D

16. Favorite (God, I have a lot. To be honest!)
- Book: Harry Potter. always. That's my childhood and I will never let go of it.
- Song/s: Lately I've been fond of Kygo Ft. Marvin Gaye's Sexual Healing. I want to be our love making song  HAHAH "I Can't Tell You Why (Eagles) and Just the Way You Are (Billy Joel) are my all time fave love songs. 
- Movie/s: This is the hardest. Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist.

17. If you could make one change in the world, what would it be?

18. - I think I can share or give to others my kindness... I think that's the question right?

19. What excite you?
- a simple message from my love, after days/weeks of non-communication, excites me. 

20. What you wish you did more of?
- I wish I did gave more time with Abel when he was here. Am I too clingy? 

21. Pretend money is no object? What would you do?

24. What piece of advise will you give to a five year old you? Sixteen year old you? twenty one year old you, right now?

- To my 21 years old self, it's ok to quit. Don't be afraid to let go and try new opportunities. Don't do reckless things. You'll regret it. 

25. How do you want to be remembered in life?
- I just want to be remembered as a cool and successful mom, tita, or grandma. :)
