Want to play fire with me?

I've found this new activity and it is called POI/FIRE Dancing aka zipping. I fell inlove with this kind of art when I saw it on the television and the first thing that went through my mind is.. "that's hot! I wanna learn that". *Big Grin :D



So I searched the net for those who offer poi dancing classes here in the Philippines. I've found one on Multiply and it's called Planet Zips. Planet Zips is a poi company that teaches poi dancing and they also sell poi products.

At first, it feels akward because all your body parts are all uncoordinated. But once you get the hang of it, it'll be much easier. You just gotta be ready to be hit hard by the tennis balls (it's what they put inside the sock for practice purposes) when your poi collides or your hands goes the wrong direction. I hit myself multiple times in the head, neck, back, legs and my left eye. Ouch! But that's fine, "No pain, No gain!"

On my first class, I really had a great time spinning poi and I even met wonderful people. I'm very much excited to attend my next class this sunday. I hope to continue this and not quit. So that I can achieve my ultimate goal - to perform fire zipping with shirts off! haha(it's as if I have perfectly sculpted pecs and abs. oh well, who says i'm not allowed to dream). Just kidding, that's only secondary, of course my primary goal is to show my artistic side using poi.

I find this passion as artistic, fun, sexy and risky all at the same time. I wish that I'll be good at it and be able to share this with other people. :]

Who am i?

I want to create my first blog by introducing myself. I know Some of you here are strangers and some know little things about me. I'm an introvert type, I take things to myself especially on my personal stuffs. iono but i'm kinda shy person and people misunderstood me as snob, which i'm not! I'm just too shy to approach you first and start a conversation. Now, i'm trying to change this attitude and so, here are some facts about me. ^^

The History

21 years ago...

I was born on February 11, 1989 at Lanting Hospital (now Casaul General Hospital) in Quezon City, Philippines. I am a premature baby boy (my mom said that maybe it's because of her diarrhea after eating pineapple and milk which induced her early and unexpected labor:]) and I was so small, I was like as big as my dad's hand. They named me Aron Mark Gaylon Soriano, they said those names came from the characters in the bible which I don't questioned further. Although I was prematurely born, my parents said that I was strong that I don't need incubation and in a matter of days me and my mom were discharged.

21 years later...

Now, i'm a grown-up. I finished my baccalaureate degree at Our Lady of Fatima University with the course of Bachelor of Science in Nursing. I've already passed my Nursing Licensure Exam, so that means i'm a full pledged nurse. Well, my problem now is the Philippines' lack of job opportunities for nurses, that's why I still don't have a job. But i'm sure that soon I'll get that dream job! haha. I just have to continue all my trainings for me to become a more competent nurse. I am now enjoying my life, with my friends and family. I want to try and experience everything that interest me to be able to learn new things. I face trials everyday, but I take them positively 'coz I know it'll help become a more mature person. :)

who am i?

i am a son

I am the eldest son of Mr. Rolando and Mrs. Edna Soriano. They are both pastors and they also work in a school. I love my parents very much and I know that they love me too. I owe them everything I am right now, I dedicate to them every achievements I had. I am grateful having them as my parents.

i am a brother

As i've said, i'm the eldest and being one is not an easy thing. I take the responsibility when my parents are away from home. I have one brother and twin sisters, namely Roland Jay-R Soriano, Karla Mae Soriano and Karish Mae Soriano. Though we fight and argue a lot, still we love each other so much.

i am a friend

My friends are the one whom I can lean on in times that I feel down and defeated. They are the one whom I share with my moment of truimphs and success. I love hanging out with them, having simple talk and crazy laughs. I love my friends and I value them so much.

i am a nurse

Yes I am! When I was young, I never thought of becoming a nurse as my career. But as I grew older, I realized that being a nurse is my real calling. It's not an easy job because there is no room for error. You hold in your hand the life of your patient. This is my passion... to help those people who needs my service.

i am a Christian

I am a Christian but this doesn't mean that I am holy. I confess that I am a sinner, but by God's grace i'm forgiven. He has been my constant companion though I don't see Him physically, yet deep inside I know He's always with me and never leaves my side. He's my guide and my strength in times of trial and difficulties. I love Jesus and He loves us too, that's why He sacrifies His life and died on the cross for our sin.

i am a Filipino

I am a pure blooded pinoy and a proud citizen of my country. It may not be a wealthy country, yet we truly are world class. I am a responsible citizen and a true filipino in thought, in word and in deed.

i am unique

Ugh! I hate it when people say that I look like somebody or act like somebody. Yea, I may have the resemblance but still I am different from them. We are created differently, So that means, I have my own way on how to carry myself. I have my own way of thinking, even my own characteristics, traits, habits, attitude and talents. I am myself and not somebody else, don't compare me with anybody. I am Aron Mark Gaylon Soriano and I am UNIQUE.


i am human

I'm not god, not even a super hero. I commit mistakes and choose wrong decisions, I am a subject for error. i fall, i get hurt, i bleed, i cry but then i will stand up and smile. that's basically how life is, and how it should be. I am only human, I have my strong and weak points, I have my good and bad side. Love me despite my flaws, and I will love you more. ^^ (please don't mind my typos and wrong grammars, thanks!)


i am a dreamer

I am a person full of dreams, not only for myself but also for my loved ones. Dreams are what makes me motivated, it what keeps me going. I have many plans for myself and for my family, and I know that soon all of these will come true. I just have to believe that I can and push harder to achieve those dreams.
