I do know myself that I am not a talented person nor a travel person, who likes to explore new things, well I have tried finding what I would be passionate about. I tried pushing myself to mental puzzles like rubik’s cube and metal puzzles. I even bought a guitar on my birthday. And obviously it didn’t worked out the way I expect it to be. But I know there is something in me, I just have to dig in. Lately, I have been conscious about my health. The way I think, what percentage of salts and sugars must have I been put in inside me. If I choose the stairs can I get sweat and be fit instantly?

My dad do workouts, and most of the time he encourage me to do this kind of diet or workout. I started to get interest doing it. I do light workouts, being picky on what i eat, challenged myself to drink 2 liters of water a day, then I also realized that was not into drinking softdrinks I was before.

I am in the midway where I am finding what course I should take in college. I am finding this “purpose” why I do schooling at the first place! But then I ask my mom if there is a course where I am suitable of. Well ofcourse I first told her what i am interested in. She told me I should take a sports-nutrition course. You should have told me sooner, mom. I felt this excitement, some mix emotions inside me. Well, you know what? I’ll take that course and celebrate because finally I found my purpose in life.

But ofcourse problems, it just ruin plans and make our life miserable. Just kidding ofcourse. I knew i had an asthma. Breathing problem, just that. But if there is something you are passionate about, never ever mind any borders, don’t even think about giving up. Start working on it! I’ll just learn how to handle this. Ofcourse, there is always a way to pursue it. Just think positive, dear. You’ll know what truly love means, when you know there is no stopping you and never giving up on it.

What a Great Day to start my first ever blog! Well, let me introduce myself. My name is Gabrielle de Leon, a grade 11 ABM student of Parañaque National Highschool. I am only sixteen, but not into sweets.

I will share to you my story how it all started. The reasons why i got into health fitness. Because I believe that having a healthy outlook, inside and out, might be your way to change for a new and better version yourself. Stay tuned!

This is an example post, originally published as part of Blogging University. Enroll in one of our ten programs, and start your blog right.

You’re going to publish a post today. Don’t worry about how your blog looks. Don’t worry if you haven’t given it a name yet, or you’re feeling overwhelmed. Just click the “New Post” button, and tell us why you’re here.

Why do this?

• Because it gives new readers context. What are you about? Why should they read your blog?
• Because it will help you focus you own ideas about your blog and what you’d like to do with it.

The post can be short or long, a personal intro to your life or a bloggy mission statement, a manifesto for the future or a simple outline of your the types of things you hope to publish.

To help you get started, here are a few questions:

• Why are you blogging publicly, rather than keeping a personal journal?
• What topics do you think you’ll write about?
• Who would you love to connect with via your blog?
• If you blog successfully throughout the next year, what would you hope to have accomplished?

You’re not locked into any of this; one of the wonderful things about blogs is how they constantly evolve as we learn, grow, and interact with one another — but it’s good to know where and why you started, and articulating your goals may just give you a few other post ideas.

Can’t think how to get started? Just write the first thing that pops into your head. Anne Lamott, author of a book on writing we love, says that you need to give yourself permission to write a “crappy first draft”. Anne makes a great point — just start writing, and worry about editing it later.

When you’re ready to publish, give your post three to five tags that describe your blog’s focus — writing, photography, fiction, parenting, food, cars, movies, sports, whatever. These tags will help others who care about your topics find you in the Reader. Make sure one of the tags is “zerotohero,” so other new bloggers can find you, too.
