I’ve been posting so many things yet I haven’t introduced my self that much yet. I’m Nneka Joy Lim. I’m currently 13 turning 14 this May 15. My parents are Chuan Ching Lim and Feliciana Lim. Actually my father has a Chinese blood (so do I). I live in a very annoying yet interesting neighborhood. I am the only child in our family. I stand 5’4 and I am taller than my mother.

But before anything else, I will give you a brief description of my family. Actually, we have a very big family tree. First, let’s start with my great grandparents. My great grandfather is Choco Chua and my great grandmother is Cornelia Chua. Just this December my great grandmother finally got her biggest break in her life. She died at the age of 104. Next in line is the best grandmother for all times. My grandmother’s name is Consusa Chua Lim. She lives in our “Ancestral House” in Calamba, Misamis Occidental. Though I haven’t met him, my grandfather is Bing San Lim. Since I was young, I haven’t seen him except in pictures. My father has 6 siblings. The eldest is my auntie Letty. She’s my father’s half sister. She has her own family as well. My other uncles are Jaime Lim, Yonilo Lim, Willie Lim and Fred Lim. You see the difference? My father has the only Chinese name! He gets so annoyed with his name and keeps on telling me that he will change his name (blah, blah, blah).

So, you have known the old people in our family. Next are the youngsters. First are my close cousins. They are Cristine, Kline, Juliene and Cyrus Lim. They have been my playmates (except for Kuya Cyrus ‘coz he is the eldest amongst us and very mature and quiet also). Almost every Saturday, I go to their house just to play with them. Sometimes I even get scolded by y mom ‘coz I don’t go home early. Well, what can we do? I was just a kid back then who wanted to play all day. But what I realize now is that life’s not that easy. It’s just that everything in life was so easy during those times.

I’m really a very optimistic and moody person. Often, I do not speak and I get mad right away. I am also approachable and I often give some advise to other people. I keep problems to myself too and I hide these problems by smiling always. But what’s amazing is that, through my smiles and laughter, I get to hide my problems. I also get to fool other people that I’m happy even though I’m not. I’m not a very quiet person. Often times or maybe always, I am very talkative at school. But what most of my classmates do not know is that I am very quiet at home. I don’t talk too much and I am really very scared of my father especially when he is mad.

Maybe that’s enough of the things you want to know about me. I hope you learned so many things about me that I am not in school. Wish you learned something about me!
