Growing up inside the closet has been really hard for me. I have been a student leader since elementary and I have always been a victim of labels and gender stereotypes, in a large scale. I even heard harsh words coming from my teachers.
Though I don't remember much from my past experiences (some of you may know what I mean, when you're trying to remember something, you feel like you're on a mental-block state), but I know for sure, that my confidence started to depreciate. I felt uneasy on how I should talk and act. I had limits on doing things.
God has always been good to his children that He gave me a talent that people would love. I used it as a camouflage. Instead of living my life brightly, I became timid and mysterious.
Then, I created Miguel 'Migz' Receno way back in 2004. I have been hiding behind his wings since then. Migz, i can say, is a stronger persona than who I really was. He has been my outlet whenever I'm in love or in pain. He is the only witness of who I really am.
But how did I came up with the name and persona Migz?
