Answering Questions with Honesty
Article #5 March 9, 2022
Way back in my high school years, one of my teachers often give us one question a day before we start our lesson. He believes that it will enhance and wake up our sleeping minds. Be honest, some of you experience daydreaming in class and not giving attentions to the teacher. He gives simple question that can be answered 5-10 minutes.
Since some of my favorite content creators here are writing articles that is question and answer portion, I also prepared mine. Hehe. I used to answer these questions way back then, so I wanna give it a try again.
1. How many languages do you speak?
I can speak 3 languages such as Tagalog, English and Korean. It can be 4 if Ilocano is a language but I think it's a dialect. Am I right? But yeah, Ilocano is my mother tongue. I can speak Tagalog because I live in Philippines and our national language is Tagalog. I can speak English, not that fluently but I think it's understandable. I added Korean because I currently doing self study of Korean Language. It sounds impossible but one of my dreams are going to Korea soon. Maybe 6 years from now. Haha. I can speak Korean but far from perfection, their language is easy to learn if you love to watch their series and listen to their songs. My nephew imitates me when I am at my mirror talking to myself. Haha.
2. What is an ideal life for you?
Basically, an ideal life for me is what I am right now. Enjoying life and being contented of what I have right now. I am not in a rush when it comes to my success because I know God is preparing it for me at the moment. I believe in God's time. I really love my life these past few months, have a small business, happy family and environment, making crochets and writing a post on noise.cash. I also want to add writing an article here. Aside from that, it is an ideal life for me that me and family are healthy in this time of pandemic or crisis. I live in a simple way that having a cup of coffee three times a day makes my life more ideal. Hahaha. Who doesn't want coffee anyways?
3. What is one thing you will never do again?
I cannot think of one because I have so many. Haha. You know, being a teenager has a lot of things that you wanna try. One thing that I will never gonna do again is to hike a hill. I didn't expect it to be that long and hard to climb. Let me show you later the hill that I climbed once in my life that I will not gonna do again. I once do it when I was in my teenager years but until now I can still feel the tiredness. Haha
4. On a scale of 1-5, how funny would you say you are?
I think 4. I am funny especially within my comfort zone. Not gonna lie but I'm the joker of the group. If you ask me why just 4 not 5? Technically, I am funny but not when I am with others. I rarely be funny when my surroundings are not my crowd or people. Some of my schoolmate's first impression to me was prickly or snobbish but I am not. At first, I am shy and not gonna start a conversation with you and people conclude that I am prickly and something. Later on, when we're hanging out, they realized that their first impression to me is not who I am. I am so funny but I always think before I drop the joke to avoid being insensitive with their feelings. I am also the funny one on our home, they are always laughing when I am with them.
5. What is you biggest pet peeve?
I am so annoyed when someone is eating or drinking loudly. You can be mad at me but I hate it the most. I think I am not the one whose biggest pet peeve is eating or drinking loudly. My mother calls them goat because you can hear every chews on their mouth. In particular, when someone has a chewing gum and he/she chews it loudly. It gets into my nerves and definitely I will lose my attention on what I am doing at that moment.
6. Are you happy?
I added this as a bonus question since I rarely got this question in my whole life. The downside of being funny is that they think that you're always happy but deep down you are sad and having an anxiety. I suggest you to ask whoever you are with right now when they are happy. Give them comfort.
To answer this question, at the moment I am happy. I am happy because I am safe, I am healthy physically, mentally and spiritually. I never felt this before. They are right when they say that the more you are busy on yourself, the less you feel the sadness and anxiety. How funny of me that sometimes I wanna make drama but my schedule cannot. Hahaha. I have so many things to do and I have no time to cry or to be sad. But yeah, it feels so good to be in this state of my life.
