WHAT RESTING MADE ME REALIZE: A THREAD

When August started, a lot has happened. As if there& #39;s no end to issues of A& #39;Tin, issues with other fandoms, issues with fellow A& #39;Tin, issues with kalats, issues with SBT, issues with everything ++

It& #39;s a never-ending cycle and somehow it made this fandom known for being toxic and full of unwavering discontentment instead of unwavering support for SB19.

Because of this a lot of A& #39;Tin have opted to rest or be IA for the time being ++

I have somehow made myself active again during evenings after I& #39;m done with my work, with my dinner and personal needs. I have found some balance in my life again after I lost it while being an all-out fangirl.++

@SB19Official
#SB19BillboardNewPeaks

Don& #39;t get me wrong. I am not saying that being a fangirl or being part of A& #39;Tin is a bad idea. I am particularly blaming myself. Why? Because I failed to distinguish my priorities and my role as an individual and as a fan. ++

@SB19Official
#SB19BillboardNewPeaks

You know what I think? We are putting too much pressure on ourselves on being a fan. A lot of A& #39;Tin found themselves prioritizing being a fan and also demanding SB19 and SBT of things we as a fan WANT to see from them/ ++

In Tagalog, ginawa nating obligasyon ang pagiging fan. Pinataw natin lahat ng responsibilidad sa sarili natin para mapabuti ang SB19 dahil tagahanga tayo eh. Gusto natin ung makakabuti sa kanila. ++

WE CHOSE to expect and demand (maybe too much) that when those demands and/or expectations are not being met, we get disappointed, lose interest and feel exhausted as a fan. Tell me? Who should we blame for that? ++

@SB19Official
#SB19BillboardNewPeaks

Should we blame SBT for not being up to OUR STANDARDS and not listening to OUR DEMANDS? Should we blame SB19 for not choosing to fight for their rights? We claim that we are doing this for SB19, but are we really doing it for their sake? ++

@SB19Official
#SB19BillboardNewPeaks

Or are we doing this to get some sort of acknowledgement in the future? Maybe we have a personal grudge to SBT? Where is my place as a fan? When and where should I draw the line from being a fan and being nosy or "pakielamera"? ++

@SB19Official
#SB19BillboardNewPeaks

Always remember that the more we expect, the more we will be disappointed. The more we open ourselves to all possible outcomes, the easier we can accept all kinds of results.

Before you were a fan, you were just an ordinary individual. ++

@SB19Official
#SB19BillboardNewPeaks

You are a student, employer, employee, entrepreneur, and all sorts of professions out there. You have a life before being an A& #39;Tin. That is why I urge you to find that balance in your life. Manage your time and priorities. ++

@SB19Official
#SB19BillboardNewPeaks

Manage your time as a fan, student, son/daughter, parent, grandparent, employee, and most importantly, AS YOURSELF. Give that time for yourself. You are not required to be a fan 24/7. ++

@SB19Official
#SB19BillboardNewPeaks

You don& #39;t need to require yourself to be always updated, to always be here, to always tweet, to always answer to DMs, to GDMs. Focus on managing your time and priorities to all the things you are doing everyday. hindi lang as a fan. ++

@SB19Official
#SB19BillboardNewPeaks

Akala mo lang wala kang magawa sa bahay dahil quarantine pero in reality, there are a lot of things that you can do when you are not in social media.

There& #39;s no such thing as "yun lang ambag mo?" because that shouldn& #39;t be measured. ++

@SB19Official
#SB19BillboardNewPeaks

I have learned not to be sorry kung wala ako dito sa fandom socmed. It& #39;s not my obligation and it will never be. Hindi un gusto ng SB19, alam niyo yan. They wouldn& #39;t want us to focus on them only. Let& #39;s live our lives outside this fandom. ++

@SB19Official
#SB19BillboardNewPeaks

Why? Because we might be missing a lot of GROWING UP AND MATURING which we should be doing as we age.

Sabi ng SB19, Go Up, and that includes growing up and going out of your comfort zones. ++

I& #39;m posting this thread because this is a realization I want to share after all the issues that I& #39;ve seen these past few days.

And although I& #39;m happy that SB19 reached a new peak, I hoped this wouldn& #39;t be used as a weapon.

@SB19Official
#SB19BillboardNewPeaks

A weapon used to call out the company again of its shortcomings. I hope you wouldn& #39;t make it your obligation to do so. But I wouldn& #39;t stop you.

I just hope that one day, you will realize that it& #39;s not our cross to carry. ++

@SB19Official
#SB19BillboardNewPeaks

Feel free to share your opinions to me. But if you feel like answering me in a negative way, use tags for metrics. Ahehehe. I will not attack someone personally just because of their opinion. I will always show you respect. ++

@SB19Official
#SB19BillboardNewPeaks

I hope if you share your opinion, be prepared for those who will oppose to it. At the end of the day, it& #39;s your choice if you will respond or not and if you do choose to respond, respond only to their opinion. Don& #39;t attack them personally. ++

@SB19Official
#SB19BillboardNewPeaks

Contribute to the metrics in your spare time. Do something else after that. Treasure your time for yourself and for your family because not everyone has the chance and the privilege to have that.

NEVER TAKE ANYTHING FOR GRANTED.

CONGRATS TO ALL OF US. All our efforts are being appreciated by SB19 so much. Find comfort in that.

I am more relaxed now in being a fan. Sana kayo din. I LOVE SB19 AND A& #39;TIN always.

SB19 will be the only group I will fangirl at!

Mwuah!
