The Future: Scary

While my friends are worrying about college, what course to take up, where to go to school, passing entrance exams, I'm here worrying about being a social awkward human being.

This time next year, I'm probably preparing myself for a new school environment outside of this country. If making friends with strangers in the Philippines is difficult, how can I make friends with people who are of different race?

Not being racist or anything. 

As excited as I am to migrate, it's also frightening. The list of negative scenarios just floods my head everytime I think about it. 

The future is frightening just thinking about it. 

Why Do I Idolize These People? [ Jenna Marbles ]

Jenna Marbles... how do I even begin to explain Jenna Marbles? I don't freaking know. However, one word to describe her? Well there's one but it's a bad word so I'd rather not say it. Let's go with sassy.

She's the more extreme female version of Dan Howell. That's it. This woman has a masters degree in psychology! If that's not what you call smart, then I don't know what is. Her real name is Jenna Mourey. She loves her dogs so much, yes she does. Why wouldn't she? They are adorable! They appear in her youtube videos often.

Why do I idolize her, you ask? Well she's practically the most opinionated person I've come across in my whole life! She speaks what's in her head and even if she's very vulgar, her opinions actually make sense AND they're really powerful. It speaks about her and her only. Sometimes you have to think about your own opinion and question yourself. If she taught me anything, it would be:

Speak your effing mind.

Why Do I Idolize These People? [Brooklyn Beckham]

Okay, I know what you're thinking. How can I idolize someone who's been keeping a low profile all his life? I do not idolize David Beckham's eldest son. He's merely a celebrity crush but the first I had who's not older than me. Hah.

I won't say anything cheesy or long or why I have an imaginary relationship with this young lad. He's simply too good looking for a 15 year old. It is unacceptable! And he cares about his brothers and his little sister, that's too sweet. He's definitely fulfilling his big brother role.

He simply deserves a post on my blog. Now I'm going to move on with my life and you may stare at his photo for a while because I've already done that. Heh.

Why Do I Idolize These People? [Dan Howell]

More about a youtube star!

The sexy man I dedicate this post to is also an internet guru, I think. His name is Dan Howell. Let me brief you more on Dan.

Dan's full name is Daniel James Howell. He's a 23 year old British lad who started his channel, Danisnotonfire, a few years ago. It now has nearly 4 million subscribers from all over the world. He also hosts his own BBC Radio Show with a fellow YouTuber, flatmate and his best friend, Phil Lester. Phil also runs a YouTube channel,  AmazingPhil. A fellow YouTuber once commented "These two are controlling the internet". Not the exact words, but you get what I mean.

His videos are mainly about his personal life. He tells the internet about his greatest FAILURES. Yes, he actually does this. Every failure story he's told his viewers, he'd normally imply the message: I hope you learn from my mistakes or I hope my failures have helped make you feel better about yourself.

He's my favorite YouTuber, why? Because he tells us absolutely nothing educational. Well, not really. Not in the traditional vlogging sense, anyway. In a personal way, he has given me tips that I can actually use in real life and are influential. He's an influential young man but it's like he turns the negative things in his life into good ones that the public can benefit from. It's like he has secret smarts, how else would he come up with these anecdotes or whatever he does?

In general, we can relate to his experiences. Plus his stories are freaking hilarious. The words he use are
big but I'm not sure if they are proper most of the time.

He's unintentionally a philosopher, a therapist and a motivational speaker for this generation, that's what I'm trying to say.

Why Do I Idolize These People? [Jamie Curry]

An 18 year old girl from New Zealand has shaped my life. Not even joking.

Jamie Curry started her own Facebook page at the age of 16. She started off making funny memes that teenagers can relate to. Her Facebook page got popular so quickly. From her meme photos, it lead her to make hilarious, silly videos. This basically lead her in making her own YouTube channel JamiesWorld. Earlier this year, her channel hit 3 million subscribers.

Lets get into topic. This girl doesn't really care if she looks ridiculous all over the internet. She doesn't give a single hoot. If you check her page right now, you'll see what I'm talking about. This is why she's famous.

She's being real.

She does not pretend to be who she is but rather she goes full-on with who she is. No matter how ridiculous she looks, she goes for it. Her page is called JamiesWorld for a reason. She describes herself as a quiet and socially-awkward human being in real life, but in her internet life she's pretty peculiar. That just shows how what she really is in her head. In her world.

Why Do I Idolize These People? [INTRO]

Sometimes, I wonder how I get mixed up with these people or get
obsessed about them. I know I'll never meet them in person but there's nothing wrong with getting your hopes up, right?

Except maybe get disappointed and heartbroken that the closest you'll ever get to them is

through your computer screen. 

sad.

So, fair warning, my next few posts will be about these people. I can say they have definitely changed my life.

Over the summer, I have been watching their videos and, wow, have they made an impact. Most of them are actually pretty pointless yet helpful. That does not make sense at all.

Anyway, Here we go!......

Gala Throwback

A not-so-instagram-worthy picture is blog worthy because no one really gives a crap about my blogposts.

8 years ago, I came to Assumption. Fresh from Colegio de San Jose 1st grader comes to Assumption Iloilo to learn and to acquire the so-called Assumption Education. Before, it was just meh. Now I realize how much Assumption has shaped me into the person who I am now.

I've made the best memories in Assumption from my First Confession, First Communion to my Confirmation and now? My senior year. The gala is a sacred clothing, as said by the nuns. The galas I've worn the past years also hold the memories of my Firsts in my Christian life.

More memories are to be made in this school and I'm sure they will be the best.
