- when i was a child, i would go under my white sheets and try to pretend that is what nonexistence looked like, i imagined the colour of suffocating, billowing white all around me to be the colour of nothing. 
- in class, i can barely hold my laughter when i look under the desks and see everyone's legs tapping. 
- i'm usually nervous or anxious when i'm around people, even friends. i am so scared of being inarticulate that i start to stutter because of it. 
- i bite my thumbnails and pinch the folds of skin behind my knee. 
- i didn't know many english words when i was in 1st grade. i spoke a garbled mixture of tagalog and incorrect english. to this day i still carry that awkwardness. 
- i have terrible posture because i'd rather look at my feet and adore the many imperfections of pavement than see the looks of people passing me by. 
- i hate marking, highlighting, and writing in books. 
- i hate uneven numbers except for the date of my birthday. 
- jamora is the combination of my mother and father's names: james and aurora. 
- i'm actually extremely shy.
