Flexible - First got into dancing
It was at least 3rd or 2nd grade when I got involved in the class dancing competitions and I realized that dancing was so fun and I took it on as a hobby -
Artistic - Got into Singing
Practically my entire family knows how to sing especially my sister who was literally the neighborhoods diva when she was in elementary(she's 23 now) and after actually learning all that I thought It would be cool if I start doing it too but did not get the same genes as everyone else but I think i'm still not bad. -
Got into an accident
We were walking towards the cemetery for my grandmas funeral(similar to what they do in New Orleans) and I had 2 hours of sleep and I started dozing off next to the van carrying my grandmas casket. I opened my eyes and I noticed the wheel gong up to my knee and the car just kept going up and down and it shattered a piece of my ankle -
Moved to U.S in 2018
I was 11 when our paperwork was finally finalized and my grandpa helped me, my sister, brother and dad get our visa and it was so weird because when we arrived it was a ton of snow and I was surprised to actually feel snow myself. -

COVID STARTS

Imaginative - Started reading books
Ever since COVID, I was just so bored and started reading comics(more specifically webtoons) and I was really into one of them and couldn't wait for more chapters so I downloaded the Light Novel and that's when I started downloading more books into my phone to read -
Went to a vacation to the Philippines
My sister took me to see my homecountry for the first time in years. We only went home because of my grandpas death -
Analytical
At the start of freshman year during online classes, I was bored and started analyzing people first and I got way too used to it now it makes academics overcomplicated and it makes me overthink things but my assumptions about people are mostly right -
Xen - Identified to a preferred name
I did not like the name John so I researched names that is non-binary and as I was scrolling I picked a bunch of names and tried to call myself those names and the only one that stuck out is Xen. -
Non-Binary - Identified as non binary
Being a "man" wasnt comfortable enough for me especially after I learned there are other genders out there. I went from being a genderfluid, agender to being Non-Binary. Non-Binary is just a gender that is neither man or woman but just in the middle. Its kind of similar to a "unisex". -
Death of my Dad
Basically like after exactly a year after my grandpa died, my dad was declared brain dead and they cut off the chord keeping him alive which is days before fathers day -
Cool, Calm and Collected.
I don't really know when I started just being calm all the time but I can stay calm through a lot of pressure with no problem even when I know i'm in trouble or getting scared, I can still think rationally and my mind is not in shambles -
Fast Learner - Learned how to drive
