Lovely day, queens and kings! The amazing Kina has just arrived, and I am absolutely happy to be here! I am very excited to join Hive. I can’t wait to make progress alongside each of you. I am beyond excited to introduce myself, and I hope you all are just as excited to read my enchanting and amazing introduction.
So here we go... My name is Kina, but you can call me Kin or Kina (though, I must say, many people have given me nicknames, and Kin or Kina are the ones I hold dear—hihihihi!). I am 18 years old and I live in Tabok Lamac, Yati, Liloan, Cebu. I'm the 5th in a family of 6 siblings! In my friend group, I’m the youngest! Growing up, I was always the youngest one, but honestly, I never really acted like it. I’ve always been more mature for my age because I want to be able to stand up for myself. I guess I just like proving that I am capable and not just the “baby” of the group.
More about me
So for the exciting part, let's get to know your favorites first. As for my favorite color, it used to be pink, but now it’s burgundy. I think burgundy has my heart now, and pink is like a close second. I just love how nice the color burgundy is, it’s like the perfect color, and I am so into it now. Sweets are my very favorite, especially chocolates! When people ask me what I want as a gift, I always say, “Anything, as long as it’s chocolates or food!” Yep, I’ve always been a foodie. Even though I’m on the thinner side right now, I’m still all about eating. :D I also love dressing up! I am really into that uptown girl vibe, or any dress with flowers on it. It just gives me girly feels! I really love listening to music, and the types I enjoy the most are praise and worship songs, R&B, pop, and OPM. I don’t really think I have any big talents, but I know I can dance and sing, though mostly just for fun, haha! I also love watching baking videos because I swear I have a talent for baking! I think there are still some hidden talents in me just waiting to be unleashed. I have a favorite verse in the Bible, it’s Psalms 23. I just love it because it makes me feel like He’s always with me, and I always feel protected. I suppose I also have a side that is completely addicted to stickers! I sometimes daydream about starting my own sticker company. Speaking of business, it’s actually my goal to run a pastry cafe with a beautiful small library, or maybe a flower shop! I can definitely see myself working as a florist part-time in the future. It sounds like the ideal balance of lovely and sweet! Oh, and my favorite flower is the peony, I just adore how beautiful and colorful they are, with all those lovely, full petals that seem to bloom with such beauty.
My personality
So, now let's get to know my personality! I took this personality test last month, and guess what? Apparently, I’m INTJ! Yeah, it's one of those “introvert, intuitive, thinking, judging” types. TBH, I am not sure if I fully believe in these tests, but it’s kinda funny how it actually makes sense in some ways. So, INTJs are like those “mastermind” people who love planning and thinking ahead. Super organized and always focused on their goals, just like they’re always 10 steps ahead. Honestly, I do get super focused and caught up in my thoughts. But here's the thing! People always say I’m quiet and shy at first, but when do they get to know me? I’m actually bubbly and fun! It’s like, I’m totally a different person once I’m comfortable with people. INTJs sound all serious and reserved, but I guess I’m more of a mix. Once I open up, I can be really fun and outgoing. Anyway, it's 50/50 pa if I believe in this test, but it's kinda fun to read and, like, it sorta makes sense too. I am also the type of person who’s always willing to learn new things and pick up lessons from everyone around me.
My Hobbies
One of my fave hobbies is watching movies! I honestly love it, and whenever I have some free time, you’ll definitely find me watching something. And whenever people ask me what my favorite movie is, I literally can’t choose just one. I swear, all the movies I’ve watched are like my favorites na! I’m really into all sorts of genres—science fiction, fantasy, romcoms, horror... you name it! And I also love watching cartoons, especially Studio Ghibli films. They are just soooo good. One of my hobbies also is singing and dancing – I love listening to music, and whenever a good song comes up, I can’t help but sing and dance along because it just makes me so happy! It's my way of letting loose and enjoying the moment, no matter where I am. Another hobby of mine is collecting things. I have already started a box of cute hair clips, and now I am also starting collecting dried flowers! I have been putting them in my notebook, which I think is super cute and adds a bit of personality to it.
The reason why I started blogging
I am into writing, it’s been my way of expressing myself. I always put on my journal about how my day went or reflecting on random thoughts. Blogging sounds fun to me, too! Like I have the freedom to express my thoughts in any way. This could help me improve my writing and gain more knowledge, which will help me become a better blogger and this could also be a best way for me to improve my writing skills, I believe writing more often can improve the way I construct my thoughts.
