Wake Up and Live

Info

As a girl, I want to be pretty (that’s why I wear make-up, dress up and smile)
As a daughter, I want to make my parents proud (that’s why I obey)
As a friend, I want to support (that’s why I help when in need)
As a lover, I want to accept (that’s why I wouldn’t mind your flaws)
As a student, I want to have good grades (that’s why I study hard)
As a leader, I want to inspire (that’s why I empower)
As a dreamer, I want to be free (that’s why I’m always happy)
As an overcomer, I want to persevere (that’s why I never give up)
As a seeker, I want to discover (that’s why I bring out the best)
As a writer, I want to express (that’s why I write)
As an artist, I want to be creative (that’s why I offer a lot of effort)
As a gamer, I want to have high scores (that’s why I level up)
As a Christian, I want to center God (that’s why I am being kind because I want to please God)
And,
As a human, I want to live my life (that’s why I want to be the best version of myself, I want to live with the truth and I plan my life like I'm going to live forever.)

Hi. I'm Jennifer Borbon also known as Jenn, Jenny, Borbs or simply Jennifer. When people look at me, when you look at me, you can see that I am simply as normal as the other girls you see. I have this long black hair, these chinky eyes, this Asian face, this fair complexion and this normal height of a girl. I wear clothes other girls do. I do things normal students do. I fit in and embrace the culture this society has dictated us. But deep within, the word normal or ordinary is something I consider or something I believe people should consider subtle. The adjective word subtle, as we all know, means delicately complex as to be difficult to analyze, describe or understand. This word applies to humans including the non-living things. 
For me, we did not exist in this world to become just simply ordinary with no use and no value. We are all complex and brilliant. We are all born gifted and special that makes us priceless as human beings. We're all capable of amazing things. I believe that no one is a clone of someone or anyone. Contradicting to this idea is how we blindly see our planet in today's reality. We define things by what we basically see in the outside. We see them as objects based on how they are seen physically. With this, we simply lose sight of the bigger picture this life has to offer. Don’t be afraid to change. Live a life that you won’t regret. Be everything you want to be while you’re living. Wherever you go, go with all your heart and with your healthy brain. Wake up and live. ;)
