Introduction

Hello, everyone! My name is Elizabeth Soriano but you can call me Eli! Long story short, I'm not new in on this app as Tumblr is what I can consider a 'rant-to-go' app where I rant stuffs and all. I have multiple of hobbies that revolves on the word 'art'. Hence, I love sketching, I know how to sing (lmao, not really a good singer but yea) I write stories in my previous tumblr account, I write poems and quotes and songs as well. I'm more of a cat person rather than a dog person. I stan HYBE artists (most likely BTS) I listen to international artists and songs yet I rarely listen to OPM songs.

Where do I see myself 10 years from now? Was my learning in SPUP vital on where I'm leading to?

I can see myself as a successful woman who lives with luxury, an ambitious woman who finally got her dream job, who is financially stable, who has a comfortable life to live in 10 years from now. Studying here at Saint Paul University of the Philippines gives you the privilege to study with good moral and active academics. SPUP had given me a chance to study at a school where I can enhance my skills on being a good and role-model of a student. I can teach myself how to properly behave, on how to be a Paulinian who carries the school's name. By learning here in St. Paul, alm the learnings that I did wouldn't go to waste as I apply all of these to where I'm headed to in the future.

Was STEM the best choice after all?

I'm not sure if I can answer this with a proper answer yet I'll answer the question, honestly. Mathematics isn't my thing, after all. I'm more of a literature girl--meaning, I'm more into journalism, books, poems, stories and such. I took a liking on watching debates and involing debates. I also indulge myself on politic-related medias or news in which I would give my opinion on every statement that is reported. Therefore, I would ask the same question myself.

'Is this the best choice that you've got?'

I picked STEM as my profession in under this strand which is Architecture. I am not sure with my profession yet I slowly learn how to adapt myself in this field. I would slowly embrace this strand and would accept my fate. Slowly but surely and as I took classes, I realize that this strand is suitable with my profession yet not only that, I learned many things and met wonderful teachers who taught me valuable lessons that is applicable and knowledgeable. By means, I met extraordinary classmates in which I grew accustomed with. Picking STEM isn't a bad choice after all.

What course will you take in college and why?

As what I've written from above, I wanted to rake Architecture as my profession. Growing up with this dream since elementary, I thought Acrhitecture is my only choice. I was too naive and young to not explore and discover what I'm capable of. When I was in junior high school, I realized what I'm capable of. There, I learned my skills in writing, reciting, and others. When I was in Grade 10, I was nervous and don't know what to do. My mind is in a haze, blurry and not quite clear. It shouts 'pick architecture' and the other says 'pick law'. I'm still a bit confused yet my mind is already set on my goal and that was to pick Architecture.

Well, I picked Arcitecture as my profession because of my father who was unable to finish his studies due to financial problems and for what he had done as a student. He didn't study well nor did he took it seriously that's why he stopped and got into job instead. He had told me once he wanted me to be an architecture and the naive little me, I said yes. Yet now growing up with a confused mind, my father was there to reassure me. He can see that I'm confused about my decisions and he told me that it is my choice and whatever decision that I have made, him and my mother will always be there to support me. Not only that, Architecture is a challenging course yet I took a liking on sketching, drafting and other things that involves art. Therefore, I chose Architecture.
