okay im gonna go from the earliest movie i rewatched a lot and i think fairly had the most impact on me. im also fully aware that the childhood list is a bit wild bc my parents didnt regulate the kinds of movies i watched they pre much would just cover my eyes with their hands or a pillow whenever there are explicit scenes like kissing and sex even though i can fully hear the sounds but they mostly didnt care about gore and violence lmao. i did gravitate more towards movies that are appropriate for my age during pre-adolescence though... i think.
early childhood:
- dumbo
- kill bill vol 1 & 2
- the princess diaries
- romeo and juliet
during elementary:
- hannnah montana the movie
- aquamarine
- wild child
- school of rock

• Pocoyo (taught me about drawing, space and perspective).
• Scooby Doo. I feel like this show in particular is really old school in terms of it having no lore behind it. It’s the same pattern for every episode and I think it’s kind of like a Time Machine of what used to be for children’s shows.
• American Dragon: Jake Long. Used to watch a lot before going to school. The plot was so enthralling.
• The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy. Loved the dark humor incorporated into it.
• Phineas & Ferb. Catchy songs, a platypus and humans with weird heads.
•The Powerpuff Girls. Need I say more?
Movies:
• Anastasia (1997). Kickstarted my obsession with the Romanovs. Lead me to google wayyyy to young what had happened to Anastasia in real life. That was bleak.
• Old Barbie movies. My favorites were The Princess and the Pauper, Rapunzel, Barbie and the Magic of Pegasus. Used to watch these all the time. They really incorporated the whimsy and made me want to live like a peasant in the medieval era under a monarchy.
• Ella Enchanted (2004).
• The Princess Diaries 1 & 2.
• Freaky Friday with Lindsay Lohan and JLC (2003).
• Hocus Pocus (1993).

its a subgenre of dance and the first edm genre to originate from the Philippines. this guy DJ love invented it and incorporated local Badjao ethnic sounds. you would hear it in fiestas mostly in the provinces and street parties. ngl i used to hate this genre back in highschool n thought it sounded silly bc i was lameee

"If I'm an advocate for anything, it's to move. As far as you can, as much as you can. Across the ocean, or simply across the river. The extent to which you can walk in someone else's shoes or at least eat their food, it's a plus for everybody. Open your mind, get up off the couch, move."
