Hola! As you can see I'm a newbie here. And before I'll formally start posting articles, allow me to introduce my self first. Allow me to introduce the person behind Illustrious.
Hi! Christine here! A 20 years old dreamer who dreams of making her parents proud. A 2nd year student who is currently taking Bachelor of Science in Psychology. A certified goal digger.
Since I am not good at introducing my self, I will just share some of interesting things about me.
1. COMFORTS.
Weird as you may think it is, but I love rain so much. Rain is everything to me. It is my comfort. Its every drops and its cold breeze always bring energy to my whole being. Not to mention that it is the perfect moment for coffee! I don't know, I cannot explain it either, I JUST LOVE THE RAIN SO MUCH.
Are you familiar with Lumpiang Sariwa? Or Fresh Spring Roll in english? It is one kind of Lumpia here in the Philippines. A Filipino dish of mixed vegetable wrapped with a soft and thin egg crepe which is garnished with sweet sauce and crushed peanut. IT IS MY COMFORT FOOD. My own kind of happy pill. It is the food that I will never trade for anything.
2.FEARS.
Childish as you may think it is, but I'm afraid of frogs. I consider frog as my greatest enemy. It is the animal that I never wish to encounter my whole life. And it may sounds funny to you but I'd rather want to encounter cockroach than frogs. No joke.
Finally, my greatest fear. During my 11th grade, I remember I am asked by my class adviser if what is my greatest fear. And me, myself, was surprised with my own answer that time. It is not the frog nor the cockroach.
"My greatest fear is to see my parents getting old. "
Those are the exact words that I said that time. Yes. You read it right. My parents, getting old, is my greatest fear. It is not that DEATH is what I am afraid of. Maybe some of you will think that way. But no, I am not afraid of death. Because I know and I am aware that everybody will die and be gone forever. Yet, I am simply afraid of not letting my parents experience the life that I planned and dreamed for them. I am afraid that they will not be able to experience the comfortable life that I wanted for them which they deserved. I'm afraid that I will not be able to pay them off. THEIR HARDWORKS AND SACRIFICES. And yeah, that's what a 20 years old student's greatest fear.
