BONJOUR
I started this blog during a time when I honestly felt like I was just trying to survive my own thoughts. Life gets loud. Messy. Overwhelming. And sometimes, especially when you’re young, gay, and figuring yourself out in a place where being fully you isn’t always welcomed, it can feel incredibly lonely.
So I wrote.
At first, this little corner of the internet was known as Skinny Brokovich — chaotic, dramatic, emotional, slightly unhinged, and honestly? Very on brand for me at the time. She became my alter ego. My way of turning all the noise in my head into something funny, fearless, and real. Through her, I could say the things I was too scared to say out loud. The hot takes, the midnight spirals, the random realizations at 2AM — it all lived there.
But somewhere along the way, this blog became more than just an outlet.
It became morethanadiary.com.
Because that’s exactly what it turned into. Not just a diary. Not just messy thoughts thrown into the void. But a space where I could exist loudly, honestly, and unapologetically — and hopefully make other people feel a little less alone too.
This blog is for anyone who has ever felt “too much.” Too loud. Too emotional. Too opinionated. Too queer. Too different.
Especially for the young gays out there in the Philippines trying to figure out where they fit in: you are not a problem to fix. You are not “too much.” You are allowed to take up space. You’re allowed to have opinions, to be soft and loud at the same time, to feel everything deeply, and to exist exactly as you are without shrinking yourself for other people’s comfort.
The world will always have something to say. Let them talk.
Meanwhile, live your life.
Be weird. Be dramatic. Cry over silly things. Laugh too loudly in public. Wear what you want. Post the unfiltered selfie. Romanticize your coffee runs. Fall apart sometimes. Put yourself back together. Repeat as needed.
This blog is messy, emotional, chaotic, and very, very me.
And if you ever find yourself here thinking you’re too weird, too queer, or too much — trust me, you’re in the right place.
Welcome to the chaos. Stay as long as you like 💅🏽✨
