Who Am I?

Well, to be a Chloe Francisco you have to be all of these things together: loud––as in on full maximum volume when speaking, in all smiles when meeting new people, and a foodie who hates vegetables. Pretty easy right? These are the simplest three little things that sums everything up to be me and what I am as a person.

On the other hand, if you really want to master being a Chloe you have to avoid the following: avoid being too much (always know when to stop, especially with money), avoid being too messy (being organized is a must), and avoid being awkward (it isn’t cool). To be honest, I tried to self-reflect while typing this but I just can’t pinpoint what I am not as a person. I feel like everyone else in the world, no matter how hard I try, I commit things I should and should not do; so listing the things I am not, will sound very hypocrite and unfair of me. Another confession, those three things I listed are just a reminder to myself for me to apply in real life.

Cats. Lets talk about them shall we? Those soft purrs, warm paws, and fluffy bodies to match. Cats are probably the closest best thing/animal that represents me. Besides the fact that theres probably around 10 people who have said I look like one, their behavior and my behavior are something very alike. Cats walk by themselves and do not need their owners to feel secure and safe; they act very demure, and do not the trust humans that they aren’t familiar with, they're also vocal creatures because they meow especially for food, love & affection, and most of all, they are pretty like me! Kidding aside, these are also things to best describe me.

If theres one thing I like about myself, its that after crying, or simply having a mental breakdown, I try to forget all of those negative things and look for a happier solution to at least try and solve all of my sad problems. It is just in my nature and it will always be like that I guess, not that I’m complaining.

There is a lot of things I hate about myself and picking one from the long list is just as hard as picking the perfect dream dress. Come to think of it, I may have hate it when I am being too much sometimes. By that I mean my pride, and when it wont go down when it has to. Up until now, I really try my hardest to step back and reflect on my actions & even my behavior in order not to hurt others. Moreover, if I had the chance to change three things about myself, that would be: my physical appearance, to be more masipag, and to be less magastos on things (food).

Two less lonely people in the world? Charot. There are two people who I admire the most and they are: Park Jimin and Romulo Miclat.

Park Jimin, from BTS. I know you may think this is weird, but hear (read?) me out. From the very start I’ve always adored Jimin and his passion for dancing, singing, and just showing the world what he is capable of with his talents. Jimin is possibly a definition of a true hard worker. When he was young it was said that he maintained to be a great top student at school all while having extra classes such as dance, taekwondo, etc., He has learned multiple distinctive kinds of dances there is and still is open to learning other dance styles up until now, has sung his lungs out ever since he became a trainee, and he now gives the best performances any idol could ever display. Because of his passion to perform, its just so easy to love him.

Romulo Miclat, my favorite artist & my grandpa. The one who molded me to what I am today. He became my father figure, my teacher, and the best grandpa in the world all at once! I salute my grandpa for being an architect, illustrator, graphic designer, a musician, and an all-around artist in just one body. A talented man indeed! I look up to him because he is all of these things, but he remains to be humble at the end of the day. He taught me so much things I needed now, and really, without him I would’ve been so lost. He also taught me how to be a good individual, to be positive even when everything seems like going down the drain because God has other plans for me. Someday, I aspire to be just like my grandpa.

Five things I love doing time to time is probably sing, dance a little, draw, listen to music, and eat & spend time with friends. These are little things I love to do because it makes me feel at ease when everything seems chaotic and too much already. So, I let myself breathe and do one of these things.

If you ever see me being blue or not in the mood for anything, just show me a video/picture of dogs being cute as heck. Dogs makes me really happy. Theres just something about them that make my heart turn into an automatic soft mode. They make my heart glow with joy.

Not to sound narcissistic or whatever, but what matters to me in my life right now is myself. I want to focus on doing well with my studies and make the people around me proud. I want to change and improve myself for the better. I want to love myself completely first so I could love everyone else with a happy heart.

For a great life I need to breathe, think, and relax. I know this is probably the nth time mentioning this, but I really think it is important to focus on yourself once and a while. Guide yourself, help yourself. These things will help me go through my hell-ish life. If it isnt obvious yet, self-reflecting is a great help for my mental health. If I let myself be down and unhappy for the rest of my life, I probably wouldn’t be here anymore.

I believe in love and it’s power. Love is such a pure, magical thing that this world lacks. If we could just love a little bit more and lessen the hate around us. I hope people realize that hating each other is a big waste of time. Lets do each other a favor and love each other.

Love and kindness is the key. I hope I’ll leave an impact to the people around me to be more kinder, more loving, more accepting towards each other despite the differences.
