  • Nocturnal

    Daily writing prompt
    Are you more of a night or morning person?

    Hmm, I am definitely a night person. I can stay up all night and remain active, but when morning comes, I feel like a zombie. My energy gets a boost once the sun sets, and when it’s time for rest, I become more active. My thought process also seems to work better during the night than in the morning. They say, “early birds catch the worm,” and it is true. However, I cannot seem to cultivate this habit; it has long disappeared since my Bachelor’s studies. Hence, I am more of a nocturnal person rather than an early riser. :))

  • The perk of being the eldest child.

    When was the first time you really felt like a grown up (if ever)?

    The perk of being the eldest child in the family is that we tend to take on responsibilities earlier than others of the same age. Speaking from my life experiences, I can say that I was given the role of a big sister since the fourth grade. At times, I felt that I didn’t really enjoy my childhood like others did. I was expected to be a responsible sister to my younger siblings.

    Fast forward to my early adulthood, the first time I realized that I was entering the realm of adulthood was when I was 15 years old. I felt that my friends of my age were somewhat immature, and it seemed like I didn’t quite belong with them. Our choices and tastes were entirely different, and I found myself more in tune with my older friends. That’s when I truly felt like a grown-up.
