About

I'm a Freshman College Student at the Far Eastern University in Manila. I'm taking up a Bachelor's Degree in English Studies. I'm planning to take that up as my preparatory course for my future studies in Philippine Constitutional Law.
People tell me that I'm a very firm person, and that I have good memory-retention skills. Once I get interested in something, I never cease to find out anything and everything about it (kinda' like what a stalker does-but I'm no stalker!) I'm a simple person. Though I can be boring at times since I'm a "homebody" and I don't usually watch TV (except for the news). I value life's simple pleasures. And I am someone who's very straight to the point.
In conclusion, I can be an excellent friend, but, I can also be a very disruptive enemy.
