Hello there Hive Friends! I’m glad I met this kind of community thru my friend. Upon knowing this platform it flutters my heart because I have now the chance to boost my confidence revealing the other side of me. As I’m into this community I feel like I am discovering the real world. I am excited to write more blogs and show to you and to the online world my positive self-expressions and good and bad experiences in life. I hope you like and learn as I go through with this. We have different stories in life, but now I chose to tell you mine.
I’m Quenie Rose Martinez, just call me ‘QuenyMe’, living in the town of Rosario, Agusan del Sur where one of the biggest mining site in Mindanao (but I’m not the owner hahaha) dreaming on. I can call myself as versatile when it comes doing things I love. One of it is playing guitar, I was once one part of the music team in our church but when I get married I never played it again. I also sing being the praise and worship leader, this is how I express my service to God.
Next on the list, on my hobbies is baking, I learned how to bake when I was in High School, but funny thing I did not pursue this kind of hobby because I don’t have oven and other materials at home.(hahaha) Li’l did you know I want to be an expert of this field but It did not happened ‘cause my mama cannot support me financially, it’s a sad thing but I understand. However, because I said I feel like I’m a versatile woman (hahaha) I have another hobby I love to cook and eat. I just scroll in face book and try those recipe that hook to my eyes and of course on my budget (haha).
Most of all, I love adventures going into different places where rivers and seas unite. I’ll tell you, many things I want to do in my life but the saddest part. I can’t focused because my mind always telling maybe you can’t do it and maybe you’ll be criticize and also you can’t finance the things you love.
Let’s throw back the time in my younger years. When I’m still a little, my family back then was not as perfect as it could be. I know many of us experienced this kind of family. My loving mama is very active in church while my father doing his vices and likes while having us as his family. I felt pity with my mother back then but in my mind I’m just a little girl not being oriented with comfort, and just sitting on the corner staring the sad scenario. But those scenarios instill on my mind, one thing it remained that I will do a new thing when I have my own family.
Following then, when in my teenage years, I always dreaming of a good man that will love me beyond I expected. I want opposite to the character of my father. I did not say I did not love my father as He is but the thing is I don’t want my future family be like from my past. I longed to have a family-oriented, God-centered and have stable finances. So, with the help of my mama and of course papa did also but a little I was able to graduate in elementary and secondary.
Unfortunately, my mother died when I was in college, so I strive hard and find some ways to finance my tuition and allowances. Thanks to my older sister because he extended help for my tuition. Yet it could not suffice because she has family already at that time. So I applied for scholarships and I got one, I also do tutoring and part time massage from my neighbors in order to have allowance on the following day.
Luckily I graduated as a Teacher, and passed the Licensure Examination for Teachers. Truly God knows how I spent my life looking for my future and keeping my journey with Him.
Fast forward, I am blessed with a good handsome husband and a beautiful lovely daughter. I thank God for having them in my life and FYI God hear my prayers those times I dreamed of what kind of husband and family I want to have in the future. Indeed, it came true. By God’s grace, I am also now a public teacher at Datu Lipus Makapandong National High School located at Poblacion, Rosario, Agusan del Sur. Teaching Grade 9 learners. Looking back to the things I’ve done, I thought of giving up but God always there reminding me that no struggles and trails can’t overcome, after these all there’s a good life ahead.
This intro blog of mine reminded me the lessons I learned in life. That no prayers and dreams be come true if we only seek God. To all who read this story, As a seener in diiferent types of websites or social media, I wish you uncover too the memories you kept in your hearts to remind you that life is worth living for. The time fade away but the lesson and memories stayed forever.
THE REASON BEHIND THIS STORY!
The reason why I came to this community blog because of my friend Aiza. She encourages me to express my insights and experiences through this blog. I am thankful that she recommended me to her mentor. Especially thanks to sir @intoy.bugoy for accepting me and believing in me to show my capability in writing blogs. This would be a great help to enhance my skills and uncover more of myself. Of course we had our orientation last May 10, 2025 before using the platform. I enjoyed much and gained more learning about it.
Hiver Friends! I hope you enjoy reading this life of mine. I can’t wait to tell to you more stories and adventures I encountered as I grow matured physically, mentally and spritually.Up until on my next blog. This is QuenyMe your Hiver Friend saying, “I have my purpose”.
