Age is just a number

JustMaryel answered these questions in her article. You can read it here. She saw that published by Probinsyana.

I took the liberty to answer them too. Feel free to do it too :D

So let's get on with the questions.

What is the dumbest way you've been hurt?

I read about TheGuy's article regarding scamming and this reminded me back then when I was scammed. Read TheGuy's article here.

I was napping at that time when suddenly the phone rang. I was still groggy and all. My mind is still in dream land.

The guy on the other end of the line was talking about an application I did online about applying in Canada. I don't know what got into me but when I saw their ad, it was enticing enough and seems easy enough. The said page will process everything for you.

There were warning signs but I ignored them. I wanted to give it a chance, I said. What if it was true?

So then the guy sounded legit and started asking me questions including personal questions and also my credit card number so he can start processing my application. Things were happening so fast. I guess the excitement got into me.

So of course my credit card was already charged. I don't want to divulge the amount for I still feel ashamed of what happened to me.

Just when you think you will not be scammed, then you will be.

I didn't tell anyone right away about that until weeks or months later I think and only to my partner. I may have said it to another friend but I can't remember.

I know you know the signs of scammers. I just hope you will not be caught unawares.

Things I am too old to do, but I still enjoy?

I'm at loss with this question. I don't have an answer for it. When is old too old? :D The difference is not in age but the capacity and ability to do things.

What is the weirdest text I have received recently?

None. Ever since messenger is widely used, I don't text that much. Only when I am offline and the need arises do I send someone a text like informing my boss that I can't work or sending my mom a text. I do receive text from delivery guys or from my mobile service or other general stuff. Nothing weird.

The first thing I do after getting home from a trip?

Rest, wash, bathe, eat if I have to and then sleep. Maybe I'll check what I missed online or entertain myself with something to watch while resting. Unpacking would be done later on unless there are wet clothes or other stuff that needs to be unpacked or stored right away like food so it will not spoil then I'll attend to do those first.

If I was given a chance to steal something, what would it be?

All the money and crypto in the world lol!

This reminded me of the movie Army of Thieves where they stole from the most secure vaults that were ever made. They didn't steal everything in there but just enough to show to the world that they have done it.

That is what I want to do too. To be able to steal from the most secure vault in the world. I don't care what it was as long as I can do the deed successfully without getting caught.

One thing my brain is trying to convince me to do, but I am fighting it?

To write here and in other platforms.

During the start of the year, laziness got the best of me. Although my mind was screaming that there are bills to be paid, nonstop need for money, I kept ignoring it. I wasn't that active back then but then I got my momentum so here I am writing again and being active more.

I have mentioned in one of my articles that indulgence is one of my weaknesses. It's a bad habit I have. My brain tells me not to over spend but I still do it.

If I was given a chance to travel back to the past, would I go?

I don't want to.

To experience things is enough. Learn from it. Grow from it. Take something from it that you can bring forward that will help you in your right now and future. To relieve everything again sounds stressful. Yes, we want to see the happiness and fun and joy and all that but that will not save you from the hurt and pain and loss and disappointment.

If the question was a particular time in the past, maybe I will but you have to convince me first lol!

Which of these questions would you like to answer?
