@ARTicLEE in November 2022

@ARTicLEE

This is my October I haven't done this in a while. The last time I made a report about my posts here was last May. Sounds like a long time ago. This time, I decided to make another report. I got inspired because I just finished writing my Hive Power Up Day/Power Up Month post. You can read it here and if you want to join, you still have some hours to join the Power Up Day if you have not yet before the challenge ends.…

I thought it would be over in less than an hour I like how the title rhymes. There you go. I did mention before that I applied for renewal of my passport. This is my second time to renew. This last passport I had was never used outside the country. My original appointment was supposedly October 31 but then it was declared a holiday so I was given the option to either go on November 11 or November 2. If November 2 will be declared a holiday again, then I would have to stick…

Now that All Saints' Day and All Souls' Day are done, we can now do our Christmas preparations guilt free. This photo was taken yesterday coming from the DFA office. Read here https://read.cash/@ARTicLEE/i-thought-it-would-be-over-in-less-than-an-hour-67c0b267. Several years ago, the city decided to transfer the city's tree from the park to here. I wonder what will the city's tree will look like this year. Last year, a friend created the star on the top of the tree and it…

"How will you sustain your income?" No, this is not an advice. That was the question asked by my boss earlier today. As you know, we lost clients for they did not renew contract. Before COVID, we were already having issues with getting clients but not that bad. It just means lesser job for us but lesser pay. Then just this month we received the news that our clients did not renew their contract. I am not surprised. I think it is one of those things that is inevitable but we…

This was taken early today beside the Athletic Bowl. I went for a morning walk and the clouds are nice to watch. You can check more here https://ecency.com/hive-193552/@leeart/actifit-leeart-20221105t111505933z I guess this is the effect of the storm Queenie. Good thing we haven't had that much rain. In reality, the clouds are not like that. Only when I applied filter did it gave the clouds warm color like that. I like it this way although the original is okay too. There's…

@ARTicLEE

Venting out on a hot day Don't mind me. Just enjoy the weather outside. It was too hot today. I think it may have been how it was the past few days but just that I did not feel it because I have been cooped up inside and when we went out, it was late in the afternoon and nighttime so it is cooler then. That photo above was taken by a friend who we didn't know was there at the same establishment that we had breakfast buffet. The last time we went there it was PHP100.00 less.…

@ARTicLEE

Yoghurt with bananas and strawberries. I know some of you likes yoghurt, plain, Greek, with or without fruits. There are two things here I don't like - yoghurt and strawberries. Honey was also served to add to this mix which I find not to sweet. It almost has that sour taste to it like that after taste when you drink lemon. My partner and a friend ordered this. I just had guyabano/a (sour soup shake). My friend who loves yoghurt didn't finish hers for she doesn't like the…

@ARTicLEE

Literally feeling blessed. As some of you know, I'm currently looking for an employment. I was browsing my fb and saw a post from a friend. It was a video of foggy mountains and I am familiar with the place for it is here in our city. I messaged her right away and she replied that she is indeed here in the city so I invited her for coffee. We met and decided to have dinner instead. We talked about employment and possible work which I will be checking after this. She also…

@ARTicLEE

Sometimes opportunities come through others I have made a post about this in my noise.app. You can check it here. https://noise.app/leeart/mkj3xrjp What I forgot to mention in that post is that I only grabbed this from my friend's post and edited it in Canva. Here is another edit from Canva. After almost 10 years, she was able to visit the city again and she took me out to dinner. I didn't expect that she will treat me. I was ready to pay for our food but she insisted. Who…

@ARTicLEE

This is my Maya crypto portfolio. When Paymaya rebranded to Maya, they have added crypto. So I joined. This is only available here in the Philippines I think. The money I staked there were earned from the Maya missions. After you complete those missions, you are rewarded with some money and those are what I used to invest in some crypto. I forgot all about that and it was only the other day that I logged back in. Interesting that Polygon MATIC is the only one that's staying…

@ARTicLEE

Second day with a friend. After meeting for lunch, we decided to visit Botanical Garden. It's good to visit tourist spots in your place once in a while and see what changes were done. A lot have changed since the last time my friend was here. We ended up taking lots of photos but I wonder how many of that will be posted online if we ever decide to. Sometimes we take photos because we like to capture things so we can appreciate them longer. If not for platforms like this, I…

@ARTicLEE

Of coins and chess - gamble and game It's supposed to be my third day with a friend but because duty calls, she has to cut short her stay and had to travel early today. Yesterday, we spent the rest of the afternoon in one of the parks here in the city, a place that she has not visited in a long time. We had fun taking photos. There were lots of "wishing wells" in the park. We were joking that this could be a lucrative business. Set up a wishing well anywhere and watch as…

@ARTicLEE

This was a screenshot from my Canva account. Thanks Canva! There will be more photo edits with you. I was doing some edit for this post https://ecency.com/hive-179017/@leeart/mirrors-mirrors-on-the-wall-for-reflections when I was prompted about by Canva about this achievement. I thought I designed more than that lol! Mostly what I edited there were used for my blogs. The post I made in hive was a #ThrowbackThursday. Weekend is waving once again. Didn't we just have a weekend…

@ARTicLEE

Cheesy time! That's the cheese bar that I had earlier today when I was at a cafe waiting for my friend. Jokes on me. I didn't ask the staff what it was. I thought all along it was oatmeal bar. I like cheese but I still prefer oatmeal bar. How did I end up there? I don't know where I mentioned that a friend of mine was coming to visit. When he reached out to me out of the blue asking for a place to stay and a car rent this month, I was thrilled! We have been friends for a…

@ARTicLEE

Posted this photo as lead image to my read post. You can check it here https://read.cash/@ARTicLEE/cheesy-time-406aac42 I was in a taxi on my way to meet a friend. When we stopped at a crossing, it's when I took this picture. It was so hot today, I think the hottest I have felt in a long time. Note that I don't usually go out in the middle of the day. I usually go out early morning before the sun is up or in the afternoons. I do feel that it is already warm around 7 a.m. on…

@ARTicLEE

It's already 1 p.m. and it's only now that I am here logging in and checking noise. It's a busy day earlier both with work and finding work lol! This photo was taken at the agency that we went to yesterday. These steels serve as railings and at the same wall. You are left to imagine how the picture looks without those railings. Sometimes in life there are blanks that we don't know how to fill but we would rather focus on what is and we can still pain a picture. How's your…

You can check more here https://ecency.com/hive-151327/@leeart/fungi-friday-at-the-park-for-the-nth-time It's the end of the work week for most and tomorrow is weekend. It would be another day to go hunting for mushrooms to post next week. I'm sure you have mushroom growing around you somewhere. Why not take photos of them and share it too? I have only been hunting at one of the parks here and there's not much to see. I think…

I took this in one of the venues for exams when I went for a walk early this morning. I'm not sure if it was nursing students who is taking exams. There was one venue I passed by. Students were already lined outside the school and it's not even 6:00 a.m. Some were holding posters and slogans to cheer for their peer taking the exam. That's one supportive way to show to your friends/relatives. I'm sure that will give them a boost in confidence. But then how about the others? I…

East and west The sun rises in the east as we all know. This was my morning view earlier today. And the sun sets in the west. Same is true with the moon. This kind of view where the rays of the sun reaches out to the farthest part of the sky is a wonder to watch. It's almost the same sunrise the other day. I was supposed to share that too but I was unable to although I haven't captured it properly because my view was obstructed. I was late to start my walk. If I'm not…

@ARTicLEE

Monkey attack. We have come at the end of our walk today when we saw this monkey. The neighbor who owns this was calling for them to secure their loose monkey. As she continued doing that, the monkey would snarl/hiss at her baring its teeth. Just when the owner was about to get to it, it approached the lady with the intent to attack and then the next thing we knew, the inevitable happened. It happened so fast. It managed to bite the lady's hand before the owner could grab…

Can you take the heat? I fried food in a pan and right after I placed it on top of this not-so-eco-bag without realizing that the heat of the pan will melt it. It was when I lifted the pan after we ate that that the outcome was revealed. Some of the micro plastics stuck to the bottom of the pan. I had to scrub it to remove whatever stuck to the pan. Sometimes we are thrown into the heat of life. We don't realize right away that we are not built for it thus we melt away and…

Some things to share I attended a free zoom meeting about Amazon VA. That's why I couldn't focus on my online hustles because I was thinking about this. It was an okay meeting. General overview as only given that time. Of course, at the end of the meeting, they will offer you masterclass but with fee. It is up to you if you want to pursue with this or not. E-commerce is one of the leading industries these days. Working with Amazon or other platforms can be profitable and it…

Who else haven't read this post by @PVMihalache? https://noise.app/PVMihalache/lkrqm8lp Check it out if you are interested. I'm not going to spoil you :D :D Anyway, it's a sunny morning here, feeling the warmth already. I thought it's going to be a gloomy one because it rained last night, fast and furious. The photo here was supposed to be a blog in Hive but I didn't make it. Now I'm not sure when will I be posting that. It's Friday and will be posting in Fungi Friday…

I am posting this video link for a friend. Her daughter needs 500 views for this one as a school requirement. Please take time to view the video 1-2 minutes. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7zBBwliMvm4 I could say a lot of things, mostly complaint, about why schools should base their grades on views and not the video itself. Anyway, right now the video has 166 views. It's still a long way to 500. Enjoy touring Baguio City through this video. Thanks so much!

@ARTicLEE

Weekend, past, animal etc. I can't find a topic to write yesterday. However, I have read the post of micontingsabit which was the last article I read last night.

To those who haven't watched this video yet, please take time to do so at least 1-2 minutes just to register that it was viewed. This is for a friend's daughter's school requirement.

Thank you also for those who saw the video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7zBBwliMvm4 The photo I posted here was on display at the Mandeko Kito Artisan's Fair held in one of the schools here in the city.

To hive or not to hive I posted a video there about our walk to the Japanese Trail again. You can check it here. I was so disappointed with that because I thought I was recording. It's only now that I saw my mistake when editing the clips. https://ecency.com/hive-168869/@leeart/lubjywnu I might re-upload that in my YouTube channel. I have to make changes like adding photos that I took to make the video longer. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCSrTy7x0rctpRtEgTF59mfg Speaking…

This popped up in my fb memory. It was uploaded same day last year. I'm not sure if it was really taken that day. I do remember seeing this. I think I have posted this in the older noise. To this day, I haven't found out if there were accidents or deaths in that area. Usually, placing candles in places like that signifies somebody died. Also, there's not one but a lot of candles. That was the first time I saw candles there because most of the time when I pass here, I see…

I was in the mood for something spicy and hot so I made some kimchi soup after frying spam. I woke up to a cold and gloomy morning. For the soup, I bought kimchi from a nearby store, added some onions and garlic, some spicy powder and black pepper. Now I'm done eating but there are lots of leftover. That will be our lunch later on. Sometimes we cook one…

This is Chai Fonacier and this screenshot was from the movie Nocebo. That scene was when she was asked where she was from and that's her response. She was further asked where in Cebu particularly and she said Kilum-kilom. I am not from Cebu but there is a place called Kilum-Kilom Drive in Bohol. To my Cebuano/Cebuana noisers here. Is there a place called Kilum-Kilom in Cebu? I Googled for the translation and I came up with the dusk/twilight as translation of kilum-kilom. I…

3rd spot! This was a 10-question quiz we had at the end of a two-day online training. That's me on the third spot. I honestly don't know if I have learned enough from this to make me eligible to start this Amazon VA path. It's really diving into it that will help us learn more. Anyway, I haven't been visiting platforms that much because of this. How's your day going so far? It's another cold Sunday night here in this part of the world.

@ARTicLEE

Back to one of my favorite spots in the city. It's because of this view that I never grew tired of this. After a long time, I was able to take this route for my morning walk earlier today. I was expecting more but whatever it gives, I take it. It's still a pleasure to see this kind of view. Just to see this layer of mountains with different tones and hues relaxes me. I want to wake up to this. I'm glad I had the stamina to go here. Lately, I have been doing my walks at the…

Accept and Adapt It must have been two or three weeks ago when a clip of a TV program shown in UK got into my fb feed. First was the A&E (Accident & Emergency) Department and then the Ambulance service of NHS, also in UK. Between those two, there were other such clips related to that that I always come across my feed. While I do admire the job of these medical personnel and how they deal with their patients with so much empathy, understanding and kindness, it shows how…

Hump Day thoughts I was checking @LucyStephanie's latest post when I noticed my accumulated rewards. Not a good sign. I am one of those who believe that number is bad luck or associated with something evil. Is this a sign that one of my potential clients is the devil? We are all slaves to something or someone. Mostly work, money, achievements, goals, dreams, someone, something. Speaking of work, I still haven't landed one. That's why I'm all over the place trying out my luck…
