"Everyday is a journey and that journey itself begins at home" -Matsuo Basho

When I was thinking and searching with what should I write with my next blog, I found this quote on the net, it says "Everyday is a journey and that journey itself begins at home" - Matsuo Basho. Do you agree with this quote? Well, for me yes. Why? because I think that our family has a big part of our journey. What we are right now is the result of the upbringing that our family had done. This quote by Matsuo Basho inspired me a lot, because it made me feel happy and proud that my parents and relatives raised me as a responsible person and I know until now, they want me to become a better person in the near future. I know that they want me to become more responsible and well disciplined person and I am very thankful for that.

December 24, 1991

December 24, 1991... What's with this date?... This is the day when I was born. Isn't it cool? Well yeah for some, kinda for me. Why? Maybe because whenever I held my birthday party on its exact date most people I invited don't come. They have different excuses for not coming, but I understand them...but deep inside medyo nagtatampo na depressed na ewan ako.. haha basta yun na yun... This is also one of the reasons why sometimes I celebrate my birthday party in advance so my friends and some of my relatives can come to my birthday party. I tried to celebrate my birthday party in advance and yes it was successful at LAST! When? It was when I turned 7 years old., my parents gave me a party not just an ordinary birthday party but it's like a debut, I remember I have 7 roses, 7 candles and 7 gifts.. and just last year December 20, 2009, it was my 18th birthday party. I was very happy because FOR THE SECOND TIME almost all of my friends that I invited came for me these two parties I had was the most unforgettable and happiest birthdays in my life. Siguro for some who would read this blog, para sa kanila masyadong mababaw yung kaligayahan ko, pero I don't care what others might say basta ang importante sa akin is masaya ako. hahaha =)

Let me tell you a story...

Let me tell you a story about my life...my journey... Well first of all, I'm Hannah Beau M. Hidalgo 18 years old, a 3rd year nursing student in Our Lady of Fatima University. Let me start with where did my parents or actually my dad got my name, here it goes... My name Hannah got my dad from the Bible, while my name Beau got it from the dictionary. It is a French word meaning sweetheart. When I was a little child until I reached 1st year college,I'd like them to call me just Hannah. I was so "naasar" and sometimes "napipikon" when someone calls me with my whole name like "Hannah Beau", I don't know kung bakit ako ganun, but as time passed by I get used to it. (with my name, some of my classmates ngayon calls me as Beau na lang). Well maybe I just learned how to accept it kasi wala naman na akong magagawa.hahaha.. That ends my story for today. =)

When does the journey of a person begins?

Last week I started to think of what will be the next blog that I am going to post, I had so many ideas that came up to my mind, but when I woke up one morning, there's just one question that i asked myself and from that very moment I just figured it out that this question is perfect for my next blog.

When does our journey begins? Maybe some would say that their journey began when they were still at their mother's womb, others would say after they were delivered or maybe when they are already conscious with their environment. For me, I think that I'm one with those people who would say that a journey of a person began when they/we are still inside their/our mother's womb. Why? Maybe because a fetus grows and develops every month inside our mother's womb.
