Be Who You Are

  Dear DJ Chloe,

  You can hide my real name and you can call me Aquaberry. Tumigil po ako sa pag-aaral after po ako naggraduate sa grade school until I enrolled at Alternative Learning System also known as ‘ALS’ that it was been a free educational (home school) offer from DepED and nag-aral ako nung 2012. I was a shy person at the time na ‘yun po until they called me ‘immature’ due to my shyness aura until I met a true friend who was in elementary year at the same home school program. Her name was ‘Gem’. I befriended her and we became friends on Facebook after she added me as a friend.

  Bumaksak po ako sa unang final review examination which it was called as “A&E Examination” a.ka. “Acceleration and Equivalency Examination” in 2016. Nag-enroll po ulit ako and then I saw my bestie Gem, we’re both in secondary level. In the meantime, I have fewer friends but the others are nakikipagplastikan sa akin pero I tried my best to ignore them and medyo class clown po ako at tsaka I’m the most informative person. I studied hard and prayed hard until eto na po ‘yung second A&E exam ko po, pumasa na po ako sa exam that finally I got my diplomas.

  Can you give some advice how to find a real friend? Not a fake one? I am planning to study college medyo may behavioral problems po ako and how can I change myself?

  PS. I’m sorry if my English grammar is bad kahit binuhos ko po ang best ko po for featuring my letter to you. More power.

  Hi Aquaberry!!!

  Your English is not so bad. Just keep reading books, newspapers, and keep watching English films to improve your English. And the best way to really improve it is to practice speaking the language.

  You want to find real friends? Well, you only have to be yourself.

  You should not pretend to be someone you’re not just to have or find friends.

  If you’re being yourself then you will attract the right people in your life.

  If you’re worried about behavioral problems, well, everyone of us behave differently. And I think we all have behavioral problems.

  As long as you don’t hurt people, I think you’re doing ok.

  ‘Yun lang, just BE YOURSELF.
