Life is an Art

     

     One of the most difficult things for me to do is to describe myself. To put it in words, it's fascinating as well. I am Yanichel, a simple girl from Vigan City, and when it comes to my personality, individuals can have different perspectives because they see what they want to see in me; and that's absolutely good with me. So now, I'm here to introduce you myself. 

     Maybe it's a long name, maybe it's not a very common name in the place where I live. I kind of grow weary of having to explain it repeatedly. Yanichel. it's hard for some people to say it, but you can call me Yani or Yana for short. I hate socializing people I don't know. I am known for being the quietest person who everyone considers to be too heartless. But all I know is that behind all those "cold likely person" of me, there's also a soft spots for the people close to my heart. I like to keep a smile on my face no matter what I am going through, and that smile keeps me going. I'm the girl that full of curiosity. Curious to know what life is all about and what it holds in the future. "What if we don't make it?", this is always the question that comes to my mind everytime I make decisions. I want to run and just escape to hide my emotions. I've been used not to tell anyone what I feel, and I don't really know how to express my feelings especially when I'm sad and hurt. I only talk to myself in my head about how I feel all the time and secretly comforting myself with music. And one of my best comfort is arts, I love painting and that makes me happy. I love colors and I also love flowers. But the best escape is watching sunset. It may represent another end but it always gave me hope for a good tomorrow, a chance to make another try and be a better version of yourself, be the best that you can be. I know I can be better, and I'll do better for myself. 

     As a person, I believe life is an art; and I am the artist of my life. I try to keep it full of colors and as cheerful as possible no matter what life throws at me. I am full of hope for love but I am not looking for it right now. I am contented with what I have and what I had. Love will come, love can wait, but that is not my priority. I have a lot of things I want to do by myself and I have Kimchie with me, my dog; not just a dog but she's my safe place. So, this is me, believing that life is a gift, and it should be treated like one, with love, care, and respect.
