2 - Who is John Dale Ocampo?

John Dale Ocampo is not your ordinary kind of guy, he maybe is 5’11 flat but he does not play any kind of sport in fact he sucks at any sports he tries. He is the completely opposite person you think of him at first sight.

He has all sorts of interests but the most eye-catching interests he has is Anime, Star wars, Gunpla, and play games in general. He is not a mainstream person on his interests but sometimes he takes his interests too seriously. Not like others he doesn’t like comparing anything, whether it’s good or bad he will not give it because he believes that it doesn’t really matter if you’re bad or good as long you are good to him. He likes to sleep a lot because it’s either he is bored or very tired. And of course listening to music is normal to him now, you’ll see him sleeping with earphones on or even going to school. 

He doesn’t have a particular taste in one genre he listens to the music he likes. At judging everything he is the worst of it, at first he hates it then loves it then hates it again. Sometimes he will act independent because of his needs, or likely he is just very shy. His family and friends is his pride, he tends to be very shy around strangers but when he gets used to them he will open up bit by bit. 

            While his family whom he loves very much likes to tease him by being an airhead and its true actually, being an airhead and being teased at. His studies are all average but he needs to change his habit of being lazy to actually pass. 

While at Video Games he likes to play Real Time Strategy like Starcraft, he likes it because being to command an army can be exciting for him. He likes to play RPGs with good stories like Dragon Age and Mass Effect, it interests him because even if they have very complicated stories you can make your own path you want either good or bad it his call. He believes that the PC changed his personality and affected his eyesight, like for being addictive like tending to spend more time in PC than sleeping. His Physical condition is completely healthy. Even though he is skinny he likes to eat not many just right, the reason for being skinny is maybe he has a fast metabolism as he was told he doesn’t really know. But his height tend to guess his character immediately as a good basketball player but he really isn’t, he doesn’t even know how to dribble properly or the rules in basketball. But if they are talking about Anime or Games he will immediately relate to these things. He really isn’t that much but he hopes to be better in the near future.

1 - My early days at Batangas.

              "Describe a place from your past"

              A place from my past is Bagbag, Balete, Batangas is where I grew up in the past years. There is where my childhood developed. Here's a photo of it. It's a place of lush green and we are near the Lake of Taal, there are many farms and plantations there. Even though it's a really annoying with the dirt in the shoes and leaves on my clothes, the fresh air really is satisfying despite all of that. The fresh air there really brings out Mother Nature’s scent. It reminds me of how important it is to have a forest surround me. My childhood there was really good there I learned many things like riding a bike and learning how to play a bit of sports. In this place is where I grew up with my sister, little brother, and grandparents.

While was growing up I moved to Manila, at first I was really surprised that there are less trees there so I kind of adapted to the environment in a city, but I still want to feel the pure fresh air from a place full of life like in my hometown. So every summer or Weekends I go to Batangas to feel the breeze of the wind and natural environment around it actually relaxes my mind. And sometimes me and my cousins go to the lake to go fishing or just view the scenery. The Lake of Taal in my place is left untouched by tourists and resorts that’s why it’s so peaceful there. When I was 10 years old my sister and my grandfather took me to the river, and in that river it contained many life like fishes, frogs, etc. We went along the river to the lake. It was really fun that I got to look at the river flowing in one direction towards the lake but it was tiring.

Every May 30^th to 31^st we have a huge gathering from all over the Barangay, it was a huge fiesta that is held yearly. It’s a time where people gather and just get along with everyone with tons of food and drinks. Before the Fiesta our relatives would visit our house and help with the cooking, and arranging of the stuff needed for the Fiesta. It’s not a formal occasion really it’s an informal occasion that random people can join in like a huge party. Sometimes the Mayors of certain cities or towns comes in to celebrate with us.

My home town is really important to me because it taught me many things like to value everything you have, your family, friends, nature, and God. Without living in Batangas I wouldn’t be the person I am today.
