Who am I?
It’s the question that I’ve been trying to find the answer for the last 21 years and yet I only get a glimpse of who I really am. But for a basic introduction, I am Alessandra Benesisto, just turned 21 last November 25. I’m currently residing in Quezon City for a holiday here in the Philippines but I’m already waiting for my citizenship in Australia. I just finished studying Diploma of Interior Design and Decoration at Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology and planning to pursue Bachelors Degree Major in Industrial Design at… well wherever life takes me. Sketching, singing, dancing, travelling, and taking photos are my ways of escape the reality. I am most myself when I feel like I don’t conform.
I am grateful and lucky to be born in a family that values education, religion and most importantly wisdom. Although I am the only child and was presented and given everything (financially) I couldn’t say I am a spoiled brat. I have experienced enough heartbreak to look beyond people’s appearances, race, and status in the society, and capabilities that for some could be a reason to create margins between people. What matters most is the core of your personality.
When I was young I felt constant pressure and the eyes of ridicule staring sharply at me as I have to achieve in life as well as my mom did. That kind of upbringing challenged me and it gradually brought out the best in me. I was able to push myself beyond the limits that I didn’t even know existed. My mom was a (very) busy woman so she never really had time for me and in a way helped me to become independent at a young age. It was a good life skill, to be independent. But sometimes it takes its toll and we realise we couldn’t bear to be alone. We constantly need someone to be there for us.
I joined steemit to share the puzzle pieces of my life and even to inspire others to become the better version of themselves. I am here to learn from every steemian and I hope you will learn a thing or two from me as well. Thank you to my gorgeous friend @meetmysuperego for introducing me to steemit. 😘
I have a curious mind, filled with questions about existentialism, the universe, and life itself which leads me to the second question after who am I… What is my purpose? I hope someday I find out and I hope my fellow steemians are with me on this journey.
Wellcome to family :)
