This is the nth blog that I made in my entire life. This probably is the 5th(?). I am such a mess in the cyber world, I tell you. I am more on the traditional way of expressing myself - through drawing, singing and, at times, writing.
Anyway, let me give you a quick introduction about the author of this blog. My name is Jeffrey, and I'm a Filipino. I am currently a college student taking up Psychology. YES! I'm a proud Psychology student!
I LOVE DIFFERENT CULTURES. Understanding other's culture helps me understand people more. By culture, I mean art. I always try to associate my everyday life with art. I make sure that I won't miss singing and drawing even once! To tell you the truth, my favorite singing stage is our bathroom since I feel like I am in a different world!
My favorite culture, of course, is the Filipino culture. Frankly speaking, I myself am not extremely familiar with ALL the existing culture in our country. YES! You read it right. Our country, the Philippines - the Pearl of the Orient, as others call it - is a compilation of different different groups of people, different lives and different cultures. There are more things to be discovered in our mysterious land. Despite the dirt, smoke and danger that lingers in the cities, beyond reality lies a dream land - a paradise. YES! Our country also has paradise.
I don't have much imagination, as others claim. I'm an average college student aiming to achieve his goals and reach the star of his dreams.
Please allow me to end this essay with a short essay:
What is Life for Me?
First thing's first. Imagine that you are in a classroom and I am your teacher. I give each one of you a piece of white paper. I won't be giving any instruction on what to do with it. It's all up to you. Just do what you wanted to do with it. So, what'll you do? Will you throw it away? Will you make an origami? Will you draw on it? Or maybe write some things? Probably your strong emotions. Are you angry? Are you sad? Are you happy? Why is it?
You can probably guess my simile to life now, can't you? If you haven't, here I'll tell you. Life for me is like that piece of white paper - no dirt, no stain, all pure white. Each one of us does have a piece of paper - life. Our life is the result of our acts. If you wanted to give significance to the "piece of paper", you'll do hard to make it beautiful. And if you don't care on what'll happen, you'll just leave it be and wait for someone else to do it for you.
What I'm trying to say is that you have to exert effort if you're really willing to achieve happiness and obtain satisfaction in life. To be able to do this, one has to try different things. DON'T BE AFRAID TO MAKE MISTAKES! As what others say, "Live your life to the fullest!"
