I KNOW WRITE MANILA //


Have you heard about the I Know Write Manila Teen Bloggers Meet Up? If not, then I'll share to you my experience with my new blog barkada! :D Last Saturday, (February 22) this event was held at Kuppa Roastery and Cafe at Bonifacio Global City. The event was about building a community of young teens who shares the same passions when it comes to writing and blogging. And it's the first ever teen bloggers meet up here in the metro! Yay!

I Know Write Manila was an idea of a young girl named Jodie Alejaga, 14 with the help of her co-friends/bloggers Nina Alvia, 16 and Arielle Guevarra, 15. Featuring Arriane Serafico as the guest speaker!

What we did that day was really fun! Meeting this awesome people is really something for me, maybe because we all like what we are doing? Or maybe because I found a new set of friends again. =)) Just don't mind or bother ask our ages ok? Hahaha!

Before I end this blog post I just want to thank Jodie, Nina, Arielle and Ate Arriane for making this event happen. It's really nice meeting all of you! Finally I have my own blog barkada now!! *insert crowd cheering here* Can't wait for the next event! ♡

CAREER PATHS AND REALIZATIONS //


Right now I’m on the fence with my career paths.  A part of me wants to be a freelance stylist/blogger and the other part of me wants to be a Journalist, but then none of that are related to my course which is Business Ad. I’m upset because apparently pieces of paper have clairvoyant properties and have the ability to determine my future. I don’t want to wake up at 40 with the bitter realization that I've wasted my life on a job I hate because I was forced to decide on a career in my teens.

So if you have a chance to choose your own career paths right now, choose the one you think that's best for you. Because I believe that we are who we choose to be. Nobody is going to come and save you. You've got to save yourself. Nobody is going to give you anything, you've got to go out and fight for it. Nobody knows what you want except you and nobody will be sorry as you if you don’t get it.
