Who I Am! (The Steemit Untalented Story)

Who am I?

That question I tried to reflect about myself after reading @surpassinggoogle which you can find in this post:
https://steemit.com/steemit/@surpassinggoogle/steemit-s-untalented-is-in-beta-participate-freely-because-every-participant-in-this-contest-will-win-something-no-losers

It actually made me realize about appreciating my worth as a person and the talent (and the untalent? LOL) that I have. It made me feel special as I lacked self-esteem and confidence. I tried to dig in about myself, then I found gems about me.

What do I like? First is music.

Well, I gotta base on what's on my profile. The first word you can read is "music". Yeah, I love music. I have been a music fan more than 2 decades ago. Since I am 33 years old, I am at my teenage years when I began to love music.

Again, I love music, but it seems music doesn't love me. I am not gifted with voice that I ever asked for. LOL! I always dreamed of having the voice of the two main vocalists of Boyz II Men! Until I went to a lower range but soft and beautiful vocals of Ed Sheeran.

As @surpassinggoogle mentioned, everybody can sing. Yes I can sing! But not something that your ear drums can manage to listen to. LOL!

I love arts!

I love arts as well!
I am going to show you a sketch of my face!

Do you think that's a better art? I drawn something better!

Cool, isn't it? (LOL!)

The first sketch was actually sketched by a friend of mine, and I never expected she has drawn my face. Not exactly how I look like but the effort was well-appreciated.

I tried to deliberate my sketch and I can say, it's not so bad. (chuckles!)

Just like music, I love art but I wasn't gifted with such talent! (Lol!)

I love entertainment!

If you ask me if I can entertain, I think I can. At least, I have some humor which can make my friends laugh. (chuckles!)

I love watching movies, particularly superhero movies. Never mind whether it is from Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) or DC Extended Universe (DCEU), I would love to watch them!

I want to be a photographer!

I love photography! Apparently in my page, you can find photography posts. I don't consider myself a professional one. I don't even have a DSLR (digital single-lens reflex) camera, and I am just using my 3-year old phone. Hopefully, I can make an investment on a professional camera out of Steemit earnings.

I love traveling.

I might've not experienced traveling overseas but I would love to, in the future. I have been to different places in my own country, and it helped to satisfy my crave of traveling. If I am able to earn that much here, I will spare some money to save for travel.

Trying to learn psychology

If I can go back to my college days, I could have took Psychology as my course. I took Computer Science in college, but I had Psychology subject which became my favorite subject. I am doing some research about Psychology for some knowledge about human behavior and psychological conditions.

Living with anxiety disorder

A lot of people may not be open in this topic, but I admit, I am suffering form anxiety disorder. I never consulted a specialist though as I can still manage it. Aside from that, consulting a professional can be costly in a developing country. I never actually expected this. I only realized about my condition when I honestly checked it and self-examined. I realized I already had the manifestation when I was still a child.

I admit, I get depressed as well. From time to time, I get visited by depression but I won't
let it conquer against me. I once spoke to my brother about it, but was unenthusiastic to listen and hear about what I'm feeling. Okay, I can manage though. Hhmmm.

I love writing poetry

I am not a professional writer or a poet, I admit. But poetry is my avenue to write what I feel. My pain and joys, I do write them. In fact, I had written some poetry that I posted here.

I am a signer and I communicate in sign language

It is the field that I had taken more than 11 years ago. I joined a congregation in sign language, and we teach deaf or hearing-impaired people some values and even sign language, as majority of them never attended a decent school for the deaf.

I am also volunteering in a vocational school in Dagupan City, which was under by Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD). I also became an interpreter before in Breaking Barrier for Youths (BBY), another division of DSWD for deaf people. Recently, I served as the interpreter at a wedding of two deaf couple.

That's me teaching a deaf person in sign language. (Sorry for the edit. I want to spare a bit of my anonymity, LOL!)

Dancing is my frustrated talent

I felt frustrated for not having a talent in dancing. That's why I have no confidence in dancing in weddings. I have two left feet! But I am glad to conquer when I joined my friends dancing at a deaf couple's wedding.

I consider this as an introductory post

I haven't had a formal introductory post as I never indicated some things about me on my first post. Well, I consider as my FORMAL introductory post too. :)

Losing my parents

I lost my mother 10 years ago, and my father 6 years ago. But the cut is deep that it won't get healed easily. I love and miss my parents so dearly.

We are all special!

I believe we all have talents! We may not have the talents that we want, we have talents in different field. So are we untalented? I gotta give my own definition for "untalented" as "special", because I believe we are. We all have the gift from our Grand Creator!

Thank you for stopping by guys, and reading my posts with some idiosyncrasies! :)
