Blog introduction: a glimpse inside the life of an independent, working student

Hi there! I’m Max, and I’m in my early 20s from the Philippines.

This is my very first blog post, and I’m really excited to share my journey with you.

I hope you'll stick around as I navigate life, one post at a time.

A little about me: I’ve been living independently since a young age, which has made me self-sufficient. I’m a working student, juggling both school and work to support myself. It's definitely not easy. Sometimes I do feel sad, but being alone having my own apartment or a place is something I dream of.

Maybe that’s just a phase. I’m not sure. To be honest, it might be normal to feel sad for no reason in your early 20s. I know it’s shaping me into a stronger and more responsible person. Every day is a learning experience, and I’m grateful for the growth that comes with it.

One of the things I love most is decorating my apartment. Whenever I have a little extra money, I make sure to buy something for my space.

I enjoy transforming my apartment into my sanctuary a place where I feel comfortable and can ease the tiredness I often feel.

There’s a backstory to why I love to decorate and make it pleasing to my eyes, but I’ll share that with you someday, just not right now hahaha!

Dressing up is another way for me to enjoy life. I love experimenting with different styles. When I was younger, I dreamed of becoming a fashion designer. I used to sketch outfits and imagine my own clothing line. However, life had other plans, and I ended up taking a more practical path that ensures stability.

It’s not what I originally envisioned, but I’m going to embrace where life takes me because I know it’s leading to a better place.

Now, let me share some of my favorite things. My favorite colors are wood tones, sage green, and black and white, which is why my apartment is filled with those shades. They give me a calm vibe, you know what I mean haha?

Speaking of calm vibes, traveling is another thing that brings me peace. I love exploring new places, experiencing different cultures, and getting lost in unfamiliar streets.

I can’t wait to share my adventures with you!

Oh, and I also travel to different places just for a drink haha! I do enjoy a good drink now and then, so you might see me talking about my favorite spots and experiences.

I guess this is it for now. If you read all the way to the end, thank you! I really appreciate you taking the time to listen to me even though you were not listening you were reading hahaha.

I hope you’ll stick around.

Also, I appreciate @antonette for introducing me to this platform and helping me along the way; she is incredibly personable and informed.

Toodles!

Aww. It is always extremely encouraging to embrace the trip with an open heart since life has a way of directing us to surprising routes that are unexpected but significant. I like your appreciation for tranquility and equilibrium that clearly shown in the fact that you have a strong preference for earthy and neutral tones in your apartment, which is perfectly connected to the fact that you have a strong interest in travelling. I also think that It is a satisfying method to gain inspiration and peace of mind to travel to new locations and immerse oneself in the cultures of other countries. Never stop appreciating the trip; you don't know what incredible events are waiting for you next!

Oh wow! being an independent working student in your 20s means juggling a lot of responsibilities, but you're learning to manage your time and stay committed to your goals. Yes, it's completely normal to feel sad sometimes, emotions like this are natural of human experience, often it can lead to personal growth. Keep pushing forward and have a fulfilling life ahead. Goodluck 😍

Welcome to the Hive community @maxalvero!
We sincerely hope you find everything you are looking for and have found a new home here.

Seven suggestions to consider:

  1. Guard your passwords carefully, and only publish with the posting key,
  2. Use your active key only for wallet transactions, Keychain, Peaklock, and Hivesigner,
  3. The master password and the owner key are only used to reset compromised passwords,
  4. DO NOT lose your password or keys; copy and store offline,
  5. Do not publish other people's work, be it photos or written, without credit, and be sure to source all of your work, even if it is your own.
  6. An introduceyourself tag is used only once , and
  7. DO NOT OPEN any links in memos or comments that you do not know who they belong to. If it sounds too good to be true it probably is, so the old saying goes. There is nothing free here.

If you find yourself overwhelmed and need some guidance, or if you have any questions, there are informed Hiveans available who can help you; you can click to go to The Terminal in Discord here:

Have fun and happy Hiving!
