Mikaela Graciel Anne

Blessed, Focused, and Thankful!

Hi! I'm Mika. A ballerina, a CPA reviewee, and a freelancer.

I'm a half Spanish-Filipina-Chinese living in the USA.

I've always been in love with butterflies and everything nice - glitters, floral, lace, etc. Skylines, fairy lights, sunsets, peonies, sunflower, red spider lily, hearts, mermaids, and unicorns are the things that get me most.

I am stuck between being a kid and being a young adult.

Travelling is what keeps me sane ; getting lost in places, wandering around new sights and experiencing new cultures especially food. Speaking of that, I am also a big foodie and I like baking.. even cooking at times. I like eating-out from the most random food chains to the most exotic food places. I love sweets and ramen and pastries. And is it weird that I don't really like pizza? Haha.

Hmmm, what else?

I am optimistic and talkative.

But during the times I don't feel like being those, I can be the exact opposite.

I've always believed that the world is a big place, and I still have a lot to discover and learn.

I have the biggest and the most ambitious dreams.

Lawyer or a diplomat, to be exact. And my frustration and what-if? To be a cardiologist. Always been a dream to heal hearts.. Literally. Hahaha.

There are some parts of me that are broken and lost, but I've always kept in mind that life? It goes whether we like it or not.

The little things make me smile and appreciate this life - early morning silence, birds chirping, sunny days, chia pudding for breakfast and a thousand more.

Many people tell me I seem so unapproachable, but really, try before you say so. I love making the people I like feel welcome and loved. I don't know ; maybe that's my thing.

Not many people know this but I really am a hopeless romantic, which means all my brain cells are pastel pink and heart-shaped. Haha. Just kidding - I've always been a softie, even if it's not very obvious. But when I want and need to be, I can be hard as a rock.

My friends always get the better part of me. I am really close to my family. I work hard to keep the people who show me they want to be in my life.

I don't always let people in, but you'll know when I do. Cause I give my hundred fifty percent.

Seldom happens but hey, it still happens.

Despite all the bad and the chaos and the drama in this world, I still choose to believe that there's always a good side in everything - may it be in people or in situations.

I've gotten hurt to many times, and if there's one thing I held on to that was the most constant - it was faith. And trust in Him. It never, ever failed me. So try to talk to me? Haha.

This is getting long.

But welcome to my life. 🤍

I couldn't have had a better birthday.

Woke up with the biggest smile on my face this morning.

Greatest gift I could ever get.

15 Things I tell myself when I don't want to study or review for the CPA Licensure Examinations!

1. You are very lucky and privileged to have access to almost unlimited knowledge, and you should appreciate that.

2. Be one of those rare people who step over their insecurities and succeed.

3. Only 10 minutes. Only today. (Repeat it 10 minutes later and every day).

4. You will know what to do as soon as you start. Ideas never appear from inactivity.

5. Make yourself proud and your parents prouder.

6. One hour every day doesn't feel much, but it's 8760 hours a year. You can't not succeed after so much work.

7. It's not supposed to be easy. Nothing good is easy.

8. If you had a child to look after, you'd make them study because you want them to accomplish something. Don't you love yourself?

9. "Everything you want is on the other side of fear." - George Adair.

10. Every mistakes increases out chance to make progress.

11. If you give up now, you'll have to return to this later anyway, but from the very beginning.

12. Let the process be your result.

13. Every moment you thought your fears would suppress you has become the time you made it.

14. Maybe you think you can never find something to use your skills and mindset for. But if you continue investing in what matters to you, it will find its way out there.

15. I allow you to think globally. You have a right to the boldest dream.

Thank you so much, MLQU!

It may have taken that long, which was hard to grasp at first, but I am so grateful for the path given to me.

It was a roller coaster ride of small and big wins that lead me to this point.

It molded me into the person I am today.

Thank you so much for the two wonderful years, MLQU.

♡, Mika.

I love what I have now. It's safer.

I become so private that only few chosen people know the important details happening in my life.

I choose only those I celebrate both the big and small victories with people I know who will be happy to see me win.

I regret how open my life was.

I love what I have now. It's safer.
