I am Honey Joy M. Bellen...

...and here are some things I like you to know about me:

Firstly, I love books. I love reading everything there is in the world (though it is just impossible to read every book there is). Classics, children's books, folktales from Native American tribes, mystery books (my love for them started when I read a volume of Sherlock Holmes), manga, manwha, books related to my course, poetry, fanfiction--name it, I would read it. However, I could not tolerate reading a romantic novel. I remember dozing off while reading a Harlequin Romance novel back in high school. It was a requirement so I could not just throw it away or bury it. After that, I remember telling myself I would not read another romance novel. I still don't.

My favorite authors include Judy Blume, Gary Paulsen, Louisa May Alcott and Mark Twain.

Secondly, I love music. I have hopped from genre to genre and I still could not find what I could call my own. If one would ask me what my favorite genre is, I would have a hard time giving a definite answer. Currently, I am listening to Mikky Ekko, f(x) [a Kpop girl group] and Emile Sande.

Thirdly, I love to observe. I can't talk for a long time because I prefer looking at the person and his/her body language. I try to read faces. I try to see beneath their eyes. There are much more than the words people speak, I guess. Sometimes, I just overthink.

Fourthly, I am a mess. I like to think that I'm a beautiful one, though. I try to manage my spontaneity, but for some reason I cannot. However, I am still thankful. Mess creates color, though not all the time.

Fifth: I love to exercise. I can't last a day without one.

Sixth: I am a college student still trying to hold on to her idealism. I am studying under the BA Sociology program which is an amazing degree program. Being young (I am still 20 years old), I am bursting with hopes and dreams, one of which is teaching. I hope to become a professor someday.

I hope that that 'someday' would not be that far, though.
