Konnichiwaこんにちは (Hello) to all and good day! I’m @sumari09. I'm a newbie here and hope to meet some new friends here on Hive. A pleasure meeting you all. So, without further ado let's start with my intro blog. ![✦ Come Join My Journey Here On Hive✦ (1).png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/sumari09/23u5xf3jhvw9QoXsvdhbyqveGj8LMpkG8EPR9Coz4yS1peENnxDB9eVtbqfqBmHkbGX95.png) **ABOUT MYSELF** Again, I'm Sumari09. It's a social media, games, and just accounts surname that I got a reference to the warriors of premodern Japan which is called a samurai. I didn't choose to name myself the same as a samurai because I learned something or some quotes in life. I mean I know there are some good quotes a samurai has, like the famous Miyamoto Musashi quotes. I choose to name myself the same as a samurai because I love the Japanese culture and samurais are pretty cool, and being me, I love cool stuff very much. ![received_312445771701197.jpeg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/sumari09/23wqik3xPcY1EEUrZ84puJyKxS4PH6usv1QmeS6mnNJR1RC9bqufpSWtFGLYn6YaXsi1K.jpeg) I'm from Cebu, Philippines. I am still 15 years old, I’m the eldest sibling in my family. I don't know if you all want to know my zodiac sign but I guess I'm just going to add it because why not, and yeah, I'm Aquarius. I am soon to be a Senior High School student next school year which means right now I'm still in grade 10 junior high school. If I describe myself, I'm the type of person who is trying to be the funny one. I laugh a lot because laughing out loud is a pretty nice feeling for me. I don't know how to describe that feeling but it just feels good. You know the feeling when you don't care what other people think about you and make other people laugh because of you and have fun in life? ![received_1029812778240369.jpeg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/sumari09/EqL9CikBPznBWThdYbjS2eqjgtWXkYoxn9MgoFXrC1Ye6U3V2cU9KQSSs2cWqLUZX9V.jpeg) Honestly, I don't see myself as pretty but cool, but who cares what other people think about you? What matters is that I stay positive with myself and act on what I think is the best for me and in my life. Sometimes, I'm curious about what people might think of me or look at me. That's why, I am not fond of looking in the mirror. Well, it’s not just a mirror though even gadgets, like when you take selfies and videos. I can't help but think I look so different. That's why I’m not used to taking photos with myself. ![received_889413959119845.jpeg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/sumari09/23sdpLvF8W7qqCVhaGRjxtroJDDkUVdm97hN25oSSuCMbcxA9hFD2QnunJitiW9mUDp5Z.jpeg) Since gadgets are pretty important and famous right now's generations, I can't help but wonder if I look like that. But then again, I learned that some people don't care about your looks. Anyway, my point is that we are perfect just the way we are. Let’s appreciate what our lord made us look like, just be ourselves, make some memories with our friends, and have fun in life. Just like this quote I heard "Beauty is not on the outside but on the inside" I got it from Dhar man's videos. ![20231006165251_IMG_8137.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/sumari09/23tvbtz6vVuLnJg7nxRarAMgrTGqBAGVxPSXJunXKMpK2Ntt2K9CvkyJp2jTKKpvuFpR6.JPG) ![received_1347718496086257.jpeg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/sumari09/Ep7tCPiHbiyyESMVKScrFuDhJuPz4U3AUFN5mVvtEFswruEhP39avtWhWYSJJaznPPh.jpeg) **HOBBIES/LOVES** My hobbies are watching movies, playing online games, playing sports, singing, reading, and sometimes is sleeping a hobby? Ha! Ha! Ha! **✦WATCHING ANIME** I watch a lot of anime movies and series. And to someone who introduced me to anime, I don’t know if I should say thanks or not, I mean anime is great but sometimes anime disturbs me with my school work and is not good for me. I watch a lot more anime than real-life movies/series, but if I have Netflix I might watch half of the real-life shows. But no, I don’t want to waste my money on Netflix when I can just watch it for free on some site on Google. Sorry, Netflix. I started watching when I was still in elementary, I think I was in 6th grade at that time and the guys just recommended a show that I once familiar with when I was just a little kid, it was shown on the GMA channel every Sunday. I didn't understand the show then, but of course, when I was already in 6th grade, I watched the show again. When I did, I searched for the original, and there I knew that it originated in Japan so I watched more of the show and just grew to love the Japanese culture. The show's name is "NARUTO" I should at least mention the name of my very first ANIME that I watched and loved. ![Screenshot 2023-12-23 042829.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/sumari09/23wgD6MhjZ5nvwoHnqnezzviBTWHgoGXjmLqRVqKP31QdQxxKyFFRZEiXm3PCAhm7wxxu.png)_{**This is a screenshot of my favorite scene in the Anime named Attack on Titan:,<**} ![IMG_20221020_135722.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/sumari09/23tRt95HG3JywkBRAJUqkr6ZinRgnQ9663jX8yE5YyH7NJVqSLZgZxPFJT2Ny58yASAb4.jpg)_{**This is a screenshot of my favorite scene in the Anime named chainsaw man xd**} **✦PLAYING ONLINE GAMES** I also play a lot of online games because of the boresome of my life and online games are also fun to play especially when you have friends to play with. I don’t have a favorite though cause online games also disturbed me with school work much of my school work OOP! But here are some online games I play Roblox, MLBB, SKY Children of The Light, and Minecraft. I play mostly on Roblox they have some horror games that I love. ![received_813699467433593.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/sumari09/23tkhyR8UatCVECt9yZjMTH1u1zf4ogBear2ZBnaXhC8hkFSDV5y9BdHWrFB9ZDQX3cDn.png) ![SKY_20221029_120245_.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/sumari09/23uQkH7iumwf4xdMqxugHh54raFWtPrD3rRw1WgF3ADeyGkBy7Czmo5PXrbeWU47fJ6jd.jpg)_{**These are the screenshots of the online games I usually played.**} **✦PLAYING SPORTS** I love playing sports and even learning them there fun and very challenging. I used to play a lot of sports before the pandemic. But since then I stopped, the sports I played at that time were running, badminton, basketball, volleyball, and karate- do martial arts. I still need to have training and learn basketball, volleyball, and karate which I stopped because of the pandemic. **•Badminton** Badminton is my all-time favorite sport. I once did a play on the district in Elementary in badminton and got 2nd place. I also joined the school intramurals and qualified to play badminton but I was not able to pursue it even if I had a series of training in Badminton Lima because of a fever. I regret not eating that night because I got sick. Anyway, it’s alright there are still many chances to play again. ![received_1013334033075268.jpeg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/sumari09/242425ifXHDcpvq7w59FRGa2gERBCwMqtvh157HVZjt7Kkw8XkYBuxwCtaRjhR1J6RMXT.jpeg) _{**This was during the awarding of Badminton athletes in my Elementary years**} ![IMG20231028171400.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/sumari09/2458J8eDN3wTywYE28BSUpgae4cCwDHURpKT69JBiSZUphDrXANCDZQ1c26PKZ5dMdfRA.jpg) ![IMG20231028171339.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/sumari09/23rB34gpNMjayrHGjrfS7WsLMs8qD7KB9pg9uxyH9xV5ZbzW8zkjjBVpHDoVGm6MB9dfQ.jpg) _{**This is the Badminton Lima, where I usually have my training in Badminton.**} **•Karatedo** In Karatedo martial arts, three of us joined me, my sister, and our cousin. We trained in karate because of some accident here in our village. My mother advised us to learn karate to defend ourselves from some creeps here in our village. It was a very nice training, but also a tiring and hurtful experience but it was alright for the sake of our safety we trained hard but eventually my sister gave up. I guess karate is not for her. She’s more into girly stuff probably model-like, so it was only me and my cousin who continued the training. ![IMG_20231222_063025.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/sumari09/23uQrpSkPw24sYaKEm8kMshByi3wyHYHNPFJb4oi6WeiAmtP2pwefUbjvX3oRZ29S4dXM.jpg) ![IMG_20231222_063016.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/sumari09/23wWu6NFxXiHTRdRpJhi471F2J1oefP9S6AYzBs1GBfJzdQzVtd2HiYNg473qheaRuGew.jpg) _{**This was during our promotional in KARATEDO**} Time passed by we finally got yellow belted we continued to practice till the horror of the coronavirus came and made a very long pandemic for us. So, eventually, that made us stop our training because we couldn't go out anymore. I wanted to go back but it would be too busy for me. I can’t handle that much pressure on me, especially since soon to be in college. **✦MUSIC** I love singing and listening to music. Who doesn't love music right? Music gives us joy, how you can relate to the lyrics or just love how the tunes sound. I love instrumental music cause it calms my very inner soul but ofc I also love those artists whose voice just sounds so calming, like AURORA. I love AURORA she's somehow my favorite music artist, her humor is also unique which makes us wonder if is she a human. I love how she makes such a calmy tune in her voice and makes music about problems that need to be noticed. Aurora's song "THE SEED" is my favorite song. The song is about how our mother earth is dying because of the factories that cause rivers and trees to die ![Screenshot 2023-12-21 094528.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/sumari09/23u6PwuEJLzuBczPmifUYniYgS1B2DKTCtoUpDZt72GRAM8ShG4grxPnM8436zWAPM6pg.png)_{**This is the screenshot of thevaurora song,THE SEED**} **•SINGING** I also sing myself. For me singing now is just a hobby but in my early days, I used to dream of becoming a singer like those music artists out there, but lost that goal after knowing how hard to become a singer and even compose a song. ![385551471_1410556449813851_340186701765700886_n (1).jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/sumari09/23w2qLh9TEWTRvuffBWiwqVpqM1nptB1vRwefxTywzt6jz4CsFyRtib5RtFKdF2KiQGjW.jpg) ![image.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/sumari09/23vhyeTGQjymvqs3yK1NQLgiPU9c6SRf9vEu8n7bgyFzPawvLnhs371AfXM6n5JK111yu.png) **WHO INTRODUCED ME IN HIVE?** My mother @dehai and her colleague @jobeliever introduced me to Hive. At first, I was not interested in what it was about but when I attended the orientation at Caduawan Elementary School, I found it interesting. I was also motivated when Miss @indayclara discussed Hive and found we have similarities like the love of anime movies. ![IMG20231208120209.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/sumari09/23wqg8JuTP5uEAokHjEDKPmtns1sBYHbXurCXh229QyVPnH7DDUKURkk5G9hHq91Ezm7X.jpg)_{**This photo is shared by Dehai**} ![received_1684856245335518.jpeg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/sumari09/23x14iEfDVsMhndhpb95FDKB1XbQ9D5Gr4BGzQKsiscWNku6HbXPDGiNiQLPJ5Ykx1BTA.jpeg)_{**This photo is shared by Dehai**} **HOW CAN I CONTRIBUTE AND WHAT HIVE CONTRIBUTE TO ME AS A STUDENT** I can contribute by sharing my very own life stories how I dealt with negativities and how I reacted to positivities. I also want to share my moments with you hiver. I hope to make friends here, especially with people around the world. Soon I can make this platform my comfort zone with lots of positive people and so I will be learning here. On the other hand, with Hive, I am sure my writing skills will be improved too. ![IMG20231208120320.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/sumari09/23wMcXJyp44aowkQgawHUFQeayFWpUW69zgZ3q78zHmRJPdrGSVyo2BPSF2awKZ8M7KL1.jpg)_{**This photo is shared by Dehai**} That's all about me and I hope you enjoyed reading and you will support my future blogs.
