Knowing myself

               Hello, my name is Matthew Arranz. I am from San Julian Sur, Vigan City and the oldest amongst my 3 brothers. For most of my life I can describe myself as a simple person, a guy that does what he can and tries to find the right kind of people around himself. But just like everyone I have my own flaws, like: being very anxious when put in the spotlight, very picky with the things I want, and also being selfish at times.

                Ever since I was young I was and still am afraid of speaking in front of a large crowd, performing on stage and anything that involved large amounts of people. But that doesn’t mean I hate socializing, I would not know what I would do without any of my friends and family. I normally talk to people with a quiet voice and not say much, but with the people I’m close to I can talk as loud and however long I want.

                These are the things I can say about myself. Though not all are good they are what makes me the person I am right now. Some of which I’m trying to change and some that I feel are a little out of reach. No matter how scared I am of the horizon, I will keep moving forward. Whether I change in the future, stay the same or something else; I will live my life to the fullest and do the best I can.
