I've always imagined the day when I could tell my tale to the world, and I believe it finally came. I'm grateful to have met these two lovely genies, 
So let's get started with my introduction.
All stories start with the leads' names; thus, "Hello, I'm Fel. I am very happy to be in this so-called "getting to know each other stage" between us, Hive. I am now a 20-year-old living in the little province of Cebu, Philippines.
(My one big happy family)
I grew up in a big yet humble family. I have eight big brothers, and we are three princesses in their lives. Basically, I didn't have a golden spoon in my mouth when I was born. My parents need to make sacrifices and work hard in order for us to survive and have food every day. So in order to pay them back, I always intended to get high marks from elementary school up until now that I am in college.
I constantly work and study hard to ensure that certificates and awards are presented before my name is spoken in ceremonies. With this, I believed that it could really give a big smile and pride to the people who have been my source of strength, my family. This is one of the nicest gifts I can give to them in appreciation for all of the struggles, hard work, and sacrifices they have made for me.

Along with that, I'd like to share my experiences as a student leader going all the way back to elementary school and my aspirations for the future, which include a career in public service. It is something I love to do—to serve people and become one of their inspirations, especially for these young people today. So, I've always made sure to be kind to everybody, hoping that my actions may truly encourage others. Because I think that being kind can make a difference in people's lives, especially those who are down in the dumps.
Nevertheless, I enjoy helping others while still working hard to achieve my academic goals, being a loving sister to all, especially the younger ones, and being a daughter who makes parents proud.These are only a few of the many things I hope to do, and I have no doubts about it because I am confident that everything will be done when the time is right because I have faith in God's goodness.

Beyond academics, I find solace in various hobbies and extracurricular activities. Whether dancing, babysitting, capturing the beauty of nature through photography, or engaging in team sports, these pursuits provide me with an outlet for creativity, expression, and camaraderie. Below will be the photos that I am going to share with you about the other side of myself.
Dancin like a pro.
Ever since I was a child, I have been very fond of dancing. I find this somewhat of a relief in everything I do. I can still remember asking my mom at what age I started to love dancing, and she said, "Even when you are still in my tummy, you start dancing like a pro." I laughed so hard after hearing what my mother said. I even doubted her answer until I discovered that dancing is really what I am passionate about. At the age of three, I began dancing solo in front of many people, particularly on big occasions.
I developed my dancing skills with the help of my supportive family, and I eventually discovered other talents like singing and performing arts. With the abilities I possess, I hope to develop them further and impart them to others, especially youngsters. And of course, I also use my talents and skills to seize opportunities to serve the Father, the Creator, as a way to express my gratitude to him.
The Queen is power.
Many said that board games can only add headaches and give you a hard time enjoying them, especially chess. But for me, this is the only sport I find easy and relaxing. All you have to do is sit out the rest of your game in an air-conditioned room or in a place where you are sheltered. You don't have sweat to be wasted or muscle aches in this kind of sport. And that is the reason why I started to love playing chess at the age of 9, with the help of my elder brother.
It took me months to master the pieces, the moves, and the tricks of playing.
So up until now, I have been playing this game, and most of the time I will be picked as one of the best players in my school, even in college. Even though I cannot claim to be an expert at this game at this time, I always hope to become one of those grandmasters who are known across the world someday.
Mamay wants a hug!
(This is me and my niece, Alexandria Monice.)
My nieces and nephews generally call me "Mamay". I enjoy babysitting, especially for my niece, Alexandria Monice. Even after a long day of studying, chores at home, extracurricular activities, and other duties, I still decide to look after my niece. Because of her, I can really feel the sincerity of love and other emotions. When I'm with her, I don't have any pretensions and am always free to rant at her, whether it makes sense or not. I appreciate how mature my niece is. She is now five years old, yet it seems like she is twenty-five when we converse.
In fact, I started babysitting her when she was just 2 months old because her parents are far away and put a lot of effort into providing for her needs. As a result, we created such a close bond and hoped that it would become as strong as before. Apart from that, I hope and pray that my other nephews and nieces may live a prosperous life in the future, under the Lord's direction, of course.
Travel and shoot!
I love traveling and, most of the time, taking photos of anything. I believe it is one of my most interesting hobbies. Everywhere I go, especially in amazing and beautiful places, I always take a photo.
Both the beaches and mountains really can save me, especially when I am frustrated with things that surround me. They can bring me peace and make me feel at ease whenever I look at them.
I am into traveling with my family, and it is a big advantage to me because, as I mentioned above, I am the youngest girl, so I am always free with the expenses and other things when we go on travel. Hahahaha, that's the best thing about being the youngest, right?
So, to my new friends here in the Hive, I look forward to hearing your suggestions of places for me to travel and your thoughts on the future photos I will take soon.I am really excited to embark on this journey with all of you. I am ready to take on the challenges that lie ahead while ardently embracing the opportunities for growth and discovery that await me.
As a result, I will grab this opportunity to find out more about the interesting individuals here in the hive, with their hidden, beautiful stories, as well as their cultural similarities and differences. Also, I'll take this chance to improve my reading and writing abilities, increase the scope of my vocabulary, motivate others with my own story to tell, and draw motivation from other people's stories.
And yeah, that concludes my introduction blog. I appreciate you taking the time to read this. God's blessings to everyone of you; be safe.
