Learn to keep your wants simple and refuse to be controlled by the likes and dislikes of others. Lowell Bennion

A person doesn’t only live with the things she loves and likes since the world is harsh, indeed, she also has things that she hates. And in this blog, I want to share my 10 likes and dislikes.

LIKES

  • FOOD

Of course all of us like food and why should I not join? Especially during this quarantine, I have been eating a lot of food but of course, we don’t want to get fat so I just eat in moderation. I also like to share the kind of foods that I like which are Korean and Italian. I like Korean food because I really like to put garlic in every food that I eat and I also like to eat spicy foods. In terms of my savory cravings, I opt for Italian food but when we talk about Filipino food I will always say that my favorite is adobo.

  • EXERCISE

Since when I enter high school I really wanted to do workouts during the morning but since I need to wake up early I really can’t insert it into my schedule. But during this quarantine, I have been doing exercises since I have a lot of time. At the start of the quarantine season, I have been doing HIIT workouts from Chloe Ting (make sure to check her YouTube channel).

  • LONG ROAD TRAVELS

When my family clan, on my mother's side, went to Baguio and later on to Ilocos Region I started to love very long road trips because I find time to bond with them and also share stories. I have also made a lot of memories together with them and I am longing for another road trip after ECQ.

  • DANCING

Ever since when I was a child I really love to dance. Especially now that music has been evolving throughout the years and there is a lot of variety now like Kpop and Latin songs. Nowadays, people have been using Tiktok to spare their time but still, I don’t have the confidence to upload videos so, maybe, next time?

  • AIRPORTS

My love for airports started when I was a child. My school had a program wherein we are required to wear our dream job’s uniform for a day and I have been wearing different clothes since I want to explore. During one of my school years in grade school, I decided to wear a flight attendant’s uniform, and then I became determined that I really want to become one (but I know this will change).

Here comes the summer of 2019, my mom booked a flight to Cebu since she said she wanted to explore the Philippines. When we went to the airport I am really excited to go inside but at the same time I am nervous, I don’t know why maybe because the airport is cold or I am just nervous. And when we went inside the waiting area (?) I just thought that it was really nice to work here but I know it is stressful.

  • KISSES ON FOREHEAD

Actually, I still didn’t experience this but in the future, I am hoping so.

  • LOYAL

Maybe because I am a Leo that’s why I like loyal people (?) Nevertheless, as I grow up I have liked people who are loyal and I admire them for that, not because I am not like one but because I want people to be loyal especially in relationships like friendship, love, and family.

  • HONEST

Another Leo likes, I always find people who are lying to be really rude and somewhat belongs to trash. That’s it.

  • BLACKPINK

Actually, the story here goes like this:

My cousin shared some music from her phone during that time I wasn’t still in Kpop but I know some groups like SNSD, Red Velvet (actually I discovered Red Velvet first before BLACKPINK but I find it hard to stan them), 2NE1, and BIGBANG. And when I was listening to it, BLACKPINK caught my attention especially Jisoo, which became my bias because of her voice since I still haven’t seen their MV during that time. So I took a break in Kpop so I can focus on my studies. During December, I decided to stan BLACKPINK because of their year-end award performances (I really miss them), and then YG released BLACKPINK house, and through that, I really discovered more of their personalities.

  • KDRAMA

My love for Kdramas also started with my cousin (another one). I started with Oh My Venus and the story goes on until now. I would also like to recommend Crash Landing On You and Itaewon Class if you want an all-in drama 🥰🥰🥰.

DISLIKES

  • PESSIMIST

As an optimist, I really don’t want people who give off negative vibes. It just makes me feel down and off whenever they say or share negative thoughts. But this is not to offend pessimists, actually what I do to them is that I just talk out loud and say any motivations for us to feel positive about something.

  • INVASION OF PRIVACY

Whenever I do work for school or leisure, I really like to just keep the door shut and it’s just me who is inside the room and I really like my workspace to be quiet. And I really dislike people who just go over other people's boundaries, it is really rude for me. In circumstances wherein a person goes into the room without knocking on the door or asking for permission. Also when they just invade your space without permission, it’s just so rude for me.

  • STRONG SCENTS

I really hate strong scents especially in perfumes or colognes especially when it smells like vape scents and when the scent just spreads all over the room. It also makes me feel dizzy when I smell one.

  • BAD CUSTOMER SERVICES

Especially in summer, whenever we go to resorts I always look for the service that they will give. And I really hate it when they just gave out poor services comparing the prices that they are paid. Also when they handle people and it is really not in order.

  • EXTREME TEMPERATURES

I really feel easily irritated whenever it is too cold or too hot. Especially now that we are in quarantine plus it is summer and the temperature is just so high that it makes me feel like I am in a desert even when I am not, it just makes me feel irritated. Also when it is too cold that I felt my hand freezing. Due to this, I wish that the Earth will heal in the next decades.

  • DISORGANIZE

People who don’t organize their things make me feel irritated and it is a major turn-off for me. I don’t know how could they find things that they need when their things are in a mess. Also, it irritates me whenever I see things disorganize and not in a proper arrangement.

  • TRAFFIC

I really hate traffic, I mean who doesn’t? Whenever I commute going to meetups or just to the grocery I always ran up to traffic. Imagine the Philippines without traffic, it just makes our lives easier and a lot faster with no hassle to works or appointments. I hope that this problem will be solved after the pandemic.

  • INTERRUPTIONS

Whenever I have conversations with people, I really get irritated when someone interrupts a person speaking. I mean, hello, they aren’t done, yet you are now speaking on your behalf. People like this are really rude and it just makes their status really low. Why not wait for the person speaking to finish first and reserve your question later.

  • BAD MANNERS

I dislike people who have bad manners especially in front of the food and God. Whenever they just ignore something or do rude manners it is really a no-no for me. I hope that people show off good values and manners in front of each other.
