Yet today, I want to share something that resonates who I am. It isn’t easy to search for the right words, but I’ll try my best, so you may know me better. I believe everyone carries a story worth telling, and this is my chance to tell you mine.
In this short introduction, I will try to share about my life, the things I love to do, and the lessons I have learned from my experiences. I want you to understand me by the simple things that make me who I am. I know I am not perfect, but I have my own strengths and weaknesses that helped me grow.
When I was fifteen years old, I started to enjoy writing. I am not a professional writer, but I find peace in writing. For me, writing is like a safe place where I can put down all the thoughts I cannot say out loud. Whenever I feel sad or have problems I cannot share with anyone, I write them instead. It helps me release my feelings and understand myself better.
People close to me often say that I am a good listener. They can share their problems and secrets with me because they know I can keep them. Some also say that I am avoidant, but in reality, I am just shy and find it hard to talk first. However, I can handle small talks and conversations well when people approach me.
I value friendship a lot because, for me, it is one of the most important things a person can have. Having someone you can trust, share your problems with, and not feel judged is very meaningful.
Some friends may leave my life because of certain reasons, but one thing is for sure, it is that I never fake who I am. I am always genuine, even when things are not easy for me.
My hobbies are reading and writing. I started reading books and e-books when I was in high school because I wanted to learn more words and gain more knowledge. I also used to write stories on Wattpad, but I never shared them because I was shy and afraid of being judged. One day, a friend found one of my stories and told me she liked it. She even asked me to continue writing. That made me happy, but I still did not focus on writing then because I had other priorities.
Now, I no longer feel ashamed of my writing. Instead, I enjoy it more because it makes me feel heard and understood. Writing helps me organize my thoughts and calm the chaos in my mind.
This is also the reason why I want to join Hive. I enjoy reading and writing, and I want to share my thoughts and daily experiences with others. Maybe some people will find my stories relatable and comforting. I also want to improve my writing by learning from others in the community.
Writing is never easy for me because it takes a lot of effort, but when I write something, it feels like I am writing in my own diary. There are no filters, no feeling of being judged, just me expressing my thoughts and sharing my ideas. I know my vocabulary may not be as wide as others, and it may even sound simple, but one thing is for sure, I write based on my experiences and on what comes to my mind. What I also enjoy about writing is that it makes me think. It makes me go into deep thinking, and that makes me excited because I believe it is healthy for people to think deeply and use their brain. It may sound funny, but that is really what I believe.
Right now, I am studying Bachelor of Science in Psychology at our City College. I chose this course because I grew up seeing people around me who struggled with their mental health. At first, it was difficult for me because I did not know much about the subject, and I was not sure if I was ready for the challenges. But with hard work and God’s help, I managed to continue, and now I am already in my third year. If things go well, I will be graduating next year.
This field has taught me to be more self aware and has helped me develop my character. Aside from its purpose of helping people who struggle with their mental health, it also helped me face my own battles and challenges in life. I know that some changes in me are because of puberty and maturity, but I can truly say that this course has taught me a lot.
It made me a better person than I was before. It helped me understand myself more, and it also helped me see why people act differently in certain situations. Because of that, my patience grew even more.
Understanding other people and what they are going through helps us become better persons. As they always say, kindness costs nothing. The same is true with understanding because sometimes people carry problems they never tell anyone. That is why they may act differently in some situations.
These are some of the reasons why I love my course and why I decided to continue pursuing it.
I learned about Hive from my friend 
Aside from that, we also had an orientation led by 
I will do my best to be active and consistent. I want to share my stories, thoughts, and even small experiences in a proper way because I believe that every post can be meaningful to someone. I will treat it as a privilege and not just something to pass time with. For me, Hive would be a great opportunity to express myself freely, connect with other people who also love reading and writing, and at the same time improve my skills.
I know that joining a community like this also comes with responsibility, so I will do my best to respect the platform and the people in it. I also want to learn from others, be inspired by their works, and hopefully inspire them too with mine.
To end my introduction, I want to say that I am a student, a writer at heart, and a person who finds comfort in words. Writing has helped me through many challenges, and I want to use Hive to continue sharing my thoughts and experiences. I hope that my words can inspire and connect with others, just as writing has always inspired me.
In pens and ink, I hope to see you, dearest, in my soonest narrative!
