Versions we've been trying to conceal: My Introblog!

When someone asks me to introduce myself questions in my mind will flood, where should I begin?

Hello, everyone. I am Shane Canque Baruiz most of my friends call me "Sheng" and some may call me "Shen".I am a 19-year-old girl. Situated in the southern part of Cebu, San Fernando. I graduated Senior High School recently with flying colors. I love unraveling things that are yet to be discovered. A little while back I received special recognition for the Best in Research.

Others may say I am introverted for there are times I simply take myself away from being surrounded by people. And my friends saw me as a people person. Don't get me wrong I love to interact as well depending on my social battery. But as I reflect on myself I am the type of person who would go the extra mile for someone I value and would save someone from drowning even if I am suffocating as well.

Details of Me

When I was in elementary, I was always the Top 1; and graduated valedictorian. People set expectations and standards for me. So when I was in Highschool I lived with the standards I was seeking validation through my academic excellence that somehow I was worthy of love If I had the gold medal.

I was always afraid to fail so even when my body told me to stop and get some rest the eagerness to strive hard crept into my mind.

I love to read and write, I am one of the journalists on our campus writing has always been my passion but somehow I am afraid I may lose myself between my lines. Whenever my line of thinking deluges and I can't find the courage to speak, and when my throat becomes drought I pen them down. I find it ironic on the other hand for the reason that I love public speaking.

In Senior High Year it was most crucial to try to balance your grades and the will to survive and surpass this set of hurricanes. I engaged in a lot of activities during this year I gave most of my time excelling in any way possible for I know college admissions will soon open.

Things that makes my heart happy.

We always wanted to escape from the times of hurricanes for me I try to find things that can make me calm and happy, just like reading a book, listening to music, and watching the sunset. I also like being around mountains or the sea as it makes me feel comfortable. However, my heart and soul are at peace and joyful when I can give and touch people’s lives.

I have always found solace in reading as it is a way of escaping the real world and its many problems. Books have a specific ability to shut down all noises and produce a harmonious tune that echoes only in my mind. Reading through the pages helps me to live through each chapter as if I am one of the characters created by the authors.

Writing is not one of my most prominent expertise, but I thoroughly enjoy writing. In my opinion, it is one way to express emotions that are difficult to put into words. Writing has always been my means of expressing myself and letting out feelings that I was unable to verbalize. When I write, I also get anxious because I feel at times like I'm drowning myself in the content of the sentence.

Music, Oh, I love music so much when I am sad, lonely, happy, confused, or whatever emotions I am currently feeling one thing is for sure music is my therapy! Usually, I prefer listening to alternative rock but I listen to any kind of music. Listening to the Alternative Rock is my way of shouting out loud without having to do it. Music is the free therapy that could heal some broken part of someone’s life.

I am reminded of the size of the planet and my independence by the breathtaking scenery of the beach and mountains. The sound of the waves on the seashore soothes me and tells me that it's acceptable for me to speculate profoundly about existence. The mountains provide a tranquil haven from the stresses of the outside world, enabling reflection and exploration of oneself away from the commotion of daily life.

I will not disregard the enchanting spectacle of witnessing the sun set. Admiring the sun set is an idyllic experience that fills me with reverence and incredulity, whether it's in the mountains with a panoramic view of nature or by the beach with the gentle crashing of waves fragmenting in the background. I'm always fascinated by how the sky changes from a blank canvas to a riot of color when the sun sets. Sunsets are a powerful reminder that beauty and optimism can always be found, which gives me an outlook and perseverance when things go tough.

People who introduced me to the hive.

I've always had a deep love for writing and have used it as a vehicle to communicate my feelings and delve into my thoughts. Writing has always been my devoted comrade, whether I'm preserving ecstatic moments, battling isolation, or considering the meaning of life.

I got the privilege of meeting @callmesmile mile and @douceink at the Division School Press Conference in Liloan. They are both exceptionally compassionate and outstanding school journalists. I was originally introduced to Hive by them. Their ability to develop authentic connections with individuals has made an enduring mark on me. I sincerely appreciate the unforeseen and significant friendships I've formed along the way.

I am ecstatic to have the chance to impart my knowledge while also learning from others. Writers can express themselves in this stimulating people and be fully heard.
