Kristy’s Answer
Nicolas, what a great question! Often times, we find it difficult to talk about ourselves; however, I think its a great exercise in self care to ask these types of questions. My love for animals would be my answer. Their display of unconditional love is a great example of how we should treat one another. Here are some other things I've learned from my pets. 1) always stretch when you get up, 2) its ok to just lay on the couch every now and then but not all the time, 3) sometimes you just gotta play in the mud puddles and 4) always try to see the good in others. cooking is a great thing. I wish I was better at it. What is your favorite dish to cook?
Great answer Kristy. We have two dogs at home and I think I learn something from them every week. Most recently, I learned the hard way, don't leave home baked cookies near the edge of the table. No matter how well-behaved our pets usually are, I guess warm chocolate chip cookies were too hard to resist!

I like my curiosity and out-of-the-box thinking. My favorite hobbies are focused on being adaptable and thinking of innovative ways of solving problems.

Margaret’s Answer
What do I like about myself, 3 years ago I wouldn't really know how to answer this. A lot of things you may like about yourself, others may not. You have to let those feelings and thoughts go. I had to work on positive self talk and my confidence, which three years ago I was not confident in myself so its hard to like things about yourself if you are not confident in who you are as a person. Now I can truthfully say I like that I am confident in myself and I like that I am self aware.

Hi Nicholas,
Thanks for your fun and interesting question. As Kristy shared, sometimes it is difficult to talk about ourselves but it is a good exercise to be grateful for what you like about yourself and your life. I keep a "gratitude journal" and take "gratitude walks" so I can think about what I'm thankful for in my life. I'm thankful I have the opportunity to volunteer and I'm passionate about helping others. I make blankets and cards for cancer patients and volunteer for an organization that serves others through their comfort dogs.
So, I guess what I like most about me is my ability to help others in need.
I like to cook too and my favorite foods to make are some of my family's traditional Filipino foods but I try and put my own signature spin on them.
Have a great week and thanks again for your question!

Hi Melisa. I have a close friend who cooks wonderful Filipino food and she has opened my world up to some wonderful dishes. She, too, likes to put her own flair on it. We just had Sinigang and she used salmon in lieu of pork. It was phenomenal.
Nicholas: what is your favorite dish to cook?

Thanks for sharing Kristy. I am also trying to change it up by making some of my family's more traditional dishes, but with a healthier spin. Admittedly, many Filipino dishes are not the healthiest, but they sure taste delicious. And best wishes to you Nicholas J. as you navigate your future educational and career goals!
