Rights and Freedom
We humans acquired basic rights and freedom when we start living on this world. It only applies to democratic countries and places which the country gives them freedom and rights that they can freely use while inside the country. However its really sad to see that there are people who can't acquire a single freedom and rights due to the authorities that govern their nation. For an instance, in countries which dictatorial government is existing, those people living in that country have no freedom and rights to defy the rules and implementation of the government, if they caught you defying their orders then the punishment of torture and death shall face you. That's the reason why people in countries like North Korea have no rights to question the authority nor freedom to go out the country. Once you abide the strict rules and regulation and tried to escape the country then your not the only one who will suffer once got caught but the whole family, they will be sent to hard labor and you'll face extreme punishment or worst death. Lucky for those people that born in free country which they already acquire freedom when they first open their eyes on this world. I'm gonna tell you what are the basic rights and freedom that we acquire from the start up to the present.
Rights to Live
This is the most important rights that given to us, a parents should be responsible to give this right to us since the tiem that we are on our mother's womb then that's the time that we acquire the rights to live. It's a rights that should not abide since we are talking here about life. Our parents decide to make us that's why it's their responsibility to give birth to us. Somehow there are cases which women decides to abort their child and commit a serious crime which is killing a human. Its inhuman act and its against the rights of single human on this planet to be born and see how beautiful this world is. Those children inside their mothers womb have rights to see world no matter how cruel it is.
Rights for Education
It's a rights that our parents and the government gives to us. No matter how hard life is a child should learn in school cause in some countries like in Philippines, education is free. Also, education is not only happens inside the classroom but it starts inside the house, a mother serve as a first teacher and teach basic things to their children like teaching them how to speak, walk, eat, and at the age of 3 their brain should acquire basic knowledge in alphabets so that they will be ready once they engage in schooling. At the stage where a child is already getting old but his or her parents can't afford to pay the tuitions then the government will give that rights to children, they can able to attend schools since the government will be the one to support the needs of the students and they will give scholarships and incentives to those students in order to help the, achieve their dreams. Of course one of the main goal of education is to nurture the students so that once they graduated and already enter in real world, they can use those values and knowledge they learn inside the classroom to deal with different things in society.
Freedom to Choose
This is a freedom that we have in this world, we have freedom to choose what we truly want. Our family can interfere in our decisions but in the end we are the one who will choose what's better to us. In an instance which we are choosing what to wear, other people might not dictate what you should wear since you have your freedom to choose, you can choose whatever you want but with restrictions. Sometimes we are too much overwhelmed with the freedom we have to the point that we forgot the limitation. We can apply this kind of freedom in everyday life, you choose to happy then it's your freedom, you choose to be alone then it's your freedom, you choose to fell inlove then it's your freedom to love the person your heart shouts. See we have freedom to choose anything that we know what's right for us but somehow those freedom to choose tends to go in wrong way and in the end we are the one who suffer from our own choice.
Freedom to Speak
This kind of freedom is usually applied to adult one, we are living in a democratic which we have the freedom to speak and voice out our rants and opinions against an issue that totally against everyone's perspective. This freedom have different use, if there's something wrong or anomaly happen on the government then we can use this freedom to tell them that they are doing wrong, they need to let go the position and give it to rightful one. Using this freedom, you can voice out your opinion and maybe people will listen to you and might support you. The disadvantage of this freedom ism this is too much overuse by those people acting like they are geniuses, they tends to use this freedom to voice out their non sense rants against a issue and once they got bash, the reason they will tell is, it's their freedom to speak and no one can stop them.
Freedom of Information
Are you familiar with FOI bill which grants freedom to citizen to know the things happening in the country which means the government shouldn't hide anything to its people since it's the rights of citizen to know what is happening to the country. Nowadays, there's nothing to hide since citizen are capable to know different information with the use of technology and also social media, this freedom might be advantageous but somehow hypocrite people using this freedom to create mess and also do bad things that may affect the country.
What's the Plan after this Pandemic Ends?
Years ago when everything was still normal, we are able to do the things that we want. We are living in a world which we have freedom to touch our loved once, kiss them, hug them and communicate them freely without any barriers like facemask and face shield. People don't need to worry if they are close to each other, there's no worries if it's so crowded and even don't afraid to share same belongings. I really miss those days, a few years ago the memory I have is still clear. I am attending school that time and preparing to graduate. I have lots of requirements need to pass that time such as projects, thesis and defense. We have upcoming defense that time on one of our subject, it was March and we are waiting for the graduation not until the cases of Covid in the Philippines start to rise, wearing face mask is implemented and I remember that one of our classmate decide to have a business inside our room which she selling fscemask 5 pesos per piece. I didn't mind Covid that time cause we are busy in doing our activities, not until the government declare a lockdown which attending school is prohibited and students are mandated to stay at home.
That time was happy moments of our life since we don't need to attend school and we just stay at home while playing and doing different stuffs. I really thought that it's just temporary however the days, weeks and months passed but the cases of Covid still rising. I lose hope since the number of deaths are racing with number of infected. Not until there's a little hope, there are reports that there are vaccines created that will help to lessen the possibility of infection and transmission that's why it was distributed globally and injected to people. I'm the one who got fully vaccinated in vaccine called Pfizer, it was August 18, 2021 when I took my first dose and that time I was busy answering our term Test. Imagine that I was there are vaccination area holding my reviewers and lots of people are looking at me while I'm busy answering the questions. Then I got fully vaccinated on September 8, 2021 and declare myself as fully vaccinated. When December came that's the time that the cases of covid lessen and the restrictions loosen. People free to move and social gathering also rise up not until the start of 2022 which the cases booms again, Omicron spread across the country and the government implement a Quarantine period for 15 days it's already 11th day and it's not clear that people can roam freely again since the cases still not decreasing that's why there's a possibility of lockdown again.
However, when the time comes that all of this already ended and the world is free again from curse of Covid then I can't assure that the world will totally back to normal cause there will be fear of another infection again. Still people will try to move on and continue in life, for me after this pandemic. I'll get back in attending school and guess what I'm 3rd year college that time and I have no learnings in online class. If my professor will ask what I learn then I have nothing to answer since all my answer in questions came from Google. In good side, after this pandemic I'll be able to roam again freely together with my friends, I can go to their house and smack them with egg, I can finally enter their house and check what's on their fridge. I can go outside the house without wearing facemask and faceshield. I was hoping that this Omicron will be the last and the world will be back to what its look like before.
Difference Between Nobles and Peasants
Societal differences and huge gap in wealth status is the major problem ever since the medieval era. There are different types of people according to their position and wealth in society. The highest is the king which rule the kingdom together with family. They are the one who's very rich in the kingdom and they don't have to do anything since they are royalty that was protected and served by people. Then the next one is nobles which members of council in the kingdom, they are usually bureaucrats and aristocrats that they don't care about anything or anyone as long as they earn profit and their reputation won't be mess. They are usually arrogant and looking at people below them as insects then the atthe lowest part of the system which are peasants, they are living far away from the royal kingdom and consider as low class people, they are citizen of the kingdom that experiencing poverty and don't have any choice but to serve to those nobles and at royal kingdom in order to earn money.
They are being treated unfairly by nobles and royalties since those nobles sees them as illiterate and insects that making the kingdom looks ugly. It's sad but it's the reality, we can see it on many movies and anime, if you watch One piece anime then you can see there the 7 celestial dragons which they believe that they are the creator of the world, they have freedom to do what they want, they can kill without breaking the law, they can buy slaves and kill them in front of many people, they can mock anyone under their power and it shows how powerful nobles are. You can't abide them or else you'll face death. Another thing is,if your a peasant and move in royal city then the people won't treat you nicely there, gossips are everywhere and they won't stop until you left the royal city, they believe that the place is only for nobles and royalties and there's no place for peasants and insects. In today's world, nobles and peasants are still existing but in different term, it was rich and poor.
We can see huge difference of rich and poor nowadays since those rich people usually living in a peaceful area surrounded by glamorous things unlike those poor people that living in unsafe area full of different trash and the houses are near to each other. The life of riches are totally different from poor, those riches gonna wake up with the food on their table, they don't have to worry about the money since the money works for them unlike poor people that needs to work in a day in order to earn decent income enough to full their stomachs. Riches don't need to worry about expenses and they can buy anything they want since money is not an issue for them unlike poor that worry everyday on how they gonna pay their bills and debts.
Totally there's a huge difference between rich and poor however we can't those rich people since some of them really work hard in life in order to become succesful and reached the status they have right now but we can't neglect the fact that some of those rich people enjoyed their luxurious life by doing illegal things specially those politicians who corrupt people's money then gonna say that it's their own and they work hard for it.Some riches also don't care on other people as long as they earn income, for an instance those companies that letting their employee work hard for them but ended up getting lots of profit but they don't give back to their employee. Such cruel riches that make money as their God. Usually employees are low and middle class people belong in society, they work hard so that they will get paid for their effort but in the end the money they got is not enough to sustain their everyday needs.
This afternoon I've watched 4 movies all about The Purge and it shows there that in times of crisis like that, poor people living in poverty are the one who greatly affected. The role of the Purge is to let people release their frustration and anger by declaring a Purge for 12 hours. It's a experiment made by NFFA or New Founding Father's of America and it has goal to help the people but the truth is its only advantageous for government officials and riches since the people joined the experiment are living in poverty line then the government promise a $5000 dollar compensation once they survive the experiment. When the purging started, those rich people are gathered in one venue while enjoying the show and they have drinks on their hands. This movie is not just about showing how human behave but it shows huge difference of people I'm society, in the last part of the movie which is Forever Purge, the people total declare a revolution which is Ever after Purge or Forever Purge which gives a problem on the government and throughout America its no longer controllable that the government decide to evacuate innocent citizen to Mexico and Canada. The NFFA taste their own medicine and those who they are protect ended up killed by purgers, that is the most satisfying part of the movie for me.
The Purge: Solution to decrease Human's Population?
Are you familiar with the American movie, The Purge?, it's all about decreasing humans population by letting the citizen kill each other for a single day without any problems or you can't go to jail since it was legalized by the government. It means a single or group of people have freedom to kill anyone except, during Purge time they zre not allowed to harm any government officials. This movie is quit thrilling and full of killing actions. Is there any possibility that it will happen in real life? Well for me there's a possibility since nowadays, humans are so cruel to the point that the immoral things forbidden to act before are now normalize and been done that's why humans life is not a big deal in the future specially if the world is already overpopulated. Base on world statistics the current population of earth is 7 Billion, they predict that in next 2050 the population of the world will become 9 billion and on 2100 the population will drastically increase to 11 billion. With so much population, the planet can no longer accommodate those large numbers of people and the resources is not enough to sustain the needs of everyone. Specially now that out planet is already toxic, trees are dying, crops are dying, climate change are everywhere, global warming heats our world and changes the temperature. Humans still continue their illegal activities and they don't care about its negative effect on humans as long as they earn income on it.
Totally our world is exhausted and a couple of million years later, human race have no longer planet to called home. Humans will be force to live in uncertain condition of planets and the body need to adjust in that condition. Another problem humanity faced is overpopulation, currently China holds the record for having most numbered of population that hits more than billion, even though though implement a one child policy, the birth rate is still more rather than death rate. China's resources is not enough to sustain the needs of its citizen that's the reason why they are trying to invade other territories slowly but surely. It's really alarming to realize that in the future, this world will become overpopulated to the point that the world government can possibly declare the Purge. In 24 hours, citizen of the world is free to kill and harm other people without violating the law. It means it will become a food news for serial killers, criminals, psychopaths and crazy people to get rampage and kill anyone in their sight. Well for me it will become advantageous if I have the power to kill my enemies. However the most affected here are the people living in poor condition, those living in unsecured places that that easily wrecked by people who wants to kill them. It's an advantage for world leaders and politicians since they are exempted to this act since they are the one who will govern the people. Also, nobles and aristocrats can buy people to protect them or even build a safe bunker for them since they have money and they can hide there until the Purge is done. It's inhuman act but this is the only way to decrease human population in just one day.
However there's no assurance that the world will be like before since it will traumatized many people, killing won't stop and the government need to implement global martial law that will lead to more serious problems, this will start global panic and global killing to the point that it will no longer controllable. There will be a possibility that in just a year 80 percent of humanity will perish and the planet will become a wasteland full of corpse everywhere. That's how my brain works when it comes to possibilities once the Purge is declare. If your a futuristic person then it's time to act and save yourself your generation in the future, the first thing to do is to build a safe bunker, it's a good strategy since in the future once the Purge was declared your children have safe place to hide and there are supplies enough for them. If you want to join the Purge then it's good to prepare yourself with weapons and armory, if you want to stay at home and wait until the Purge is done then its better to secure the house then arm yourself cause you didn't know that there will be killer around your house waiting for the right time to kill you. This sound creepy but it may happen, we can't stop humans from increasing it's population, the birth rate is faster than death rate and I can see that humans life is like nothing in the future due to overpopulation and declaring a Purge for a whole day is one of the way that I can see to decrease the population.
Live-in Before Marriage?
The topic marriage is too broad to discuss and it was resulted into endless debate, some people says that, marriage is a thing that everyone should respect. It's a thing that everyone should enter with at the right time. Some people also says that it's just a piece of contract of each two person sharing their properties and nothing special, well this kind of mindset is for those bureaucrats and nobles that talks about money, they want to secure the future and wanna spread more of their reputation that's why their children's are required to marry those other nobles. Marriage is a process which two people are binds together so that they can recognize as married couple. It's a process which two people are exchanging vows in front of God and also in front of people, it's a tradition which two person gonna promise that they will love each other in times of sickness and health, in richness and poor and until the death do them part. For ladies, it's the best moment of their life since their dream to face altar someday with the man they truly love.
Somehow, other girls are happy to engage on marriage however some are not since they are force to marry a man that they didn't love. It's actually happening in other countries which they are engage on arranged marriage even though they didn't like the man. It's a sad thing but they can't do anything since its their parents decision. It's the main reason why they are not happy in marriage life and leads to committing a mistake. Did you realize the reasons why some married couple ended up having a separation and divorce? Well, there are certain reasons why their love ended up maybe due to series of fights, maybe due to third party, maybe due to abuse and many more. For me the best thing to do if the relationship is no longer healthy is too let go and decide to leave, you can never push yourself to stay in a relationship which you knew that won't work. It's true that we humans are the greatest artist, we can easily act as good but the truth is there's an evil inside of us that ready to unleash anytime.
A person who engage on relationship and ready to enter in world of marriage sometimes ended up regretting their decision since they didn't really know the attitude of their partners. Sometimes marriage couple having hardtime on understanding each since they are not aware of their flaws and imperfections. There are are lots of things to be consider first before entering in marriage, of course a couple must be sure that they really love each other, they must ready physically, emotionally and more importantly financially. Financial problems is one of the reason why couple often fight, sometimes it leads to serious fights and worst abuse. Another thing is, both couple must assure that they are loyal to each other and their relationship is so strong that no one of them will commit a serious mistake like cheating. It happens when one of them are not happy on relationship that's why they are finding another lover that can fulfill their desire.
It's an immoral act of a person that truly wrong since you already gave a promise to a person you with in front of God yet you choose to find another one and it's a big mistake that will lead to more conflicts. That's the main reason why couple prefer to live-in before marriage since they believe that living in one roof will give them a chance to know each other. Two couple are trying to do what married couple do in order to test how they gonna act once they are on situation. It's also a good choice since that would be the perfect chance to know their strength and weaknesses, that's the chance to know what are the things they need to change and need to adjust. Living in is not bad since it's a stepping stone for both couple in order to identify what would be the problems and struggles they will encounter once they already married.
Some of couple engage on living in stage ended up scuessful and overcome their flaws and imperfections somehow there are couples living in ended up breaking up since they prove that they are not for each other, there are also cases that a man act a serious mistake by finding another women and it proves that the man is disloyal to the woman. Living in is a proof test to measure how much you love each other and how you will manage to face those problems while living in one roof. That's why to those elders out there, I'm not a position to tell you that it's time to find a man then engage on marriage specially to ate Ruffa, just kidding. However, I want to say that before you make decision in life, you need to know what would be the consequences so that you are aware once you ended up failing that decision.
Ethical Issues and Prostitution
When we hear the word Prostitution,the first thing comes to our mind is those people specially women who engage in activity which they are selling their bodies to people specially men in exchange of goods or money. Prostitution is existing since before in Europe, those ladies are giving happiness to them and by exchange they are getting paid or soemhow not cause they are sometimes abused. Prostitution is an act that we can totally see that it's an act of immorality which means it is wrong and against the law of human and law of God. Somehow, we can't bake those people why they engage on those kind of activity. We humans have what we called choice and act, they tend to choose the world of that immoral act that's why they gonna are are action out of it however every actions have equal and opposite reaction it means there's a consequences they need to face. Sometimes those prostitutes can get fast money in just one night however there's unfortunate prostitutes that been molested and abused if they won't do the things that their customer wants.
The world of Prostitution is too dangerous yet there are lots of women choosing to enter on it due to power of money. Sometimes there are people who had reasons why they enter in Prostitution, one of those reason is to fulfill their own desires. Those prostitutes are exhausted in life which they didn't acquire the things that riches have that's why they think that one one engage on Prostitution then it's their chance to buy the things they want using the money they will earn. Another reason is due to poverty and unemployment, in Philippines this is the main reason why people enter in the world of Prostitution, poverty pressures them to gamble in this kind of illegal activity just to fulfill their crumbling stomachs, they are ready to neglect their dignity and principles abuse they don't have any choice. In exchange of that, they will be hate by society, people look at them as trash and they don't need to be respected cause at first they didn't respect themselves. Now, I'm gonna relate this topic on different ethical issues and determine different views of people about Prostitution.
Emotivism
From the root word itself emote which means a person is judging the situation base on his or her feelings and not by the facts. It means we humans are capable of voicing out our opinion thru our feelings. Let's relate this on Prostitution. As an emotivist and you saw a prostitutes then maybe you can feel like that person is doing that activity for the money, you'll maybe feel angry cause he or she didn't find any good job in order to sustain her needs but he or she choose the easiest way to earn money somehow it's immoral while other person might say that they understand why that person engage on Prostitution cause the life pressures them to engage on it, a person is putting himself on that situation in order to feel what the prostitutes feel. Everyone of us have different reasoning on situation and sometimes we judge and sometimes we understand why they do that cause we are basing on our feelings, however Prostitution is wrong, it's an immoral act and never should be tolerated.
Moral Empiricism
When we say the word empiricism, it means that a person is judging the situation base on his or her experience. They are the one who already encounter the situation that's why they have the power to tell what's right and wrong. In topic Prostitution I'll give an example, have you watched Rated K before regarding a girl which engaged on Prostitution however she changed for the betterment when she met the love of her life. She told in interview that she was engage on Prostitution so that she can fulfill her own desires specially money and buy the things that she want, however she got gang raped and she was helpless, she tried asking help to many people and to police but people only see her as a prostitutes, her credibility and integrity already lost and people even hardly believe if she totally got raped. The time has come that she changed herself together with her boyfriend, I'm glad that she's now an active advocate of spreading awareness against Prostitution and educating students specially ladies about the effect of engaging on those immoral activities. As we can see on example, the girl already knew that Prostitution is wrong cause she already experienced it and doesn't want to engage on it again.
Moral Rationalism
When we say Rationalism it's more on reasoning but not equal in gathering facts before giving reasons. Which means those rationalist are only giving their opinion base on whatthey think and saw. It's actually the reciprocal of empiricism which empiricism talks about experience while Rationalism talks about reasoning without experience. When we talk about Prostitution, those rationalist people are often telling their thoughts without any facts, they are just telling that prostitutes have no dignity and they are entering in world which their dignity and credibility is gone, they won't get respected. Those are the words that a rationalist can say.
2 Anime that I Watched so Far
Yesterday, there's no topic formed in my mind that's why I wasn't able to publish an article, I think I broke my goal to write one article per day but still I'm doing my best to cope up on it maybe I'll write 2 articles today. Anyways, our topic for today is about two recent anime that I've finished watching at animbee.com. Before I am having hardtime on finding episodes of anime I watched since crunchyroll needs to sign up first that's the main reason why I look different episodes in Facebook, however not all episodes are available on Facebook and the quality is not that good. Until a friend of mine suggest that I should try to watch animethst I like on animebee, though there are certain ads need to remove first in order to watch but I think it's our responsibility to deal with it since those websites are free. I missed a lot of anime that I was before, one of those is Magi.
Are you familiar with this anime? Maybe you are since it was broadcasted on GMA Channel 7 before, it an anime that I really love to watch before specially it was on tagalog dub. However I realized that I didn't fully understand the story that's why I plan to rewatch it. I look at search bar then found two chapter of this anime which are Magi: Labyrinth of Magic and Magi: Kingdom of Magic. I don't want to spoil you but I'm gonna give small details about this anime. Some people are debating who's the main protagonist of this anime since they have their own stories, but the story focus on the journey of Alladin which is one of the four Magi. He's on journey in finding the truth about the world until he encountered Alibaba Saluja, the third prince of kingdom of Balbaad. Alibaba escaped from the palace and live in the dump together with his friend Kasim. Alibaba is a hardworking guy which aimed to conquer a dungeon in order to gain the treasure and also power. Aladdin met Alibaba and they decide to conquer a dungeon.
After they successfully conquered the dungeon, Alibaba finally obtained wealth and power. That's the start of their journey, they faced lots of opponent and met lots of friends which one of them is Morgiana which belong to Fannalis Clan. At next chapter which is Kingdom of Magic, Aladdin travel on it's own to discover who he really is then he know that he's one of the Magi. Aladdin discover that the world is created by King Solomon since the world before known as Alma Toran was destroyed by apocalypse made by enemies. At the end episode they win however its not yet finished since there are still enemies, I am waiting for the next chapter release cause the anime was made almost decade ago and I am hoping they will reborn Magi again.
Then the next anime that I currently watching right now is Black Clover, this anime is also interesting since the main protagonist of this anime are Yuno and Asta, they are both peasants living in Forsaken Realm together with Sister Lily, other children and Father who raised them, this anime is so good to watch cause there are lessons while watching and also it shows the real life situation which nobles and peasants have huge gap. Peasants are living away from the capital while those nobles with great power are living on royal capital. Also, nobles discriminate peasants and they dot want any peasants to enter in royal capital. During the inauguration of giving grimoires, Yuno was so lucky to get the four leaf Clover which was used by the first wizard king to defeat the demon.
However Asta didn't get any grimoire and people laugh around him. However he didn't lose any hope that's why he continue in training until there's a guy who ambushed them and planning to steal four leaf grimoire, that's the time that the grimoire of Asta showed up and it was 5 leaf Clover which there's a demon reside on it. I don't want to spoil more but it has 170 episodes and I'm currently at 104, this is a nice anime to watch, maybe some of you already finished watching it.
Flu and Cold
It's been 4 days since New Year and all I can say is Philippines is in flu and cold right now. I saw lots of post on social media that they are having flu and cold. Maybe due to extreme cold and also eating too much that's the reason why. People are ill right now, the cough started yesterday. I am feeling unwell that's why I immediately finished all the chores then sleep early. I am planning to watch few episodes of black Clover however I'm not feeling well and my eyes in pain. That's why I off my tab then take a evening nap, I sleep at 9 PM then planning to wake up at 11 PM since I need to move in my folding bed. Early this morning while I was sleeping, suddenly my cough interrupts my sleep that's why I woke up with a heavy body then drink lots of water.
An hour later I feel like I'm gonna pee that's why I went outside. Then this morning my flu and cold strikes and I can feel how hot my temperature is, I'm glad that my sense of taste didn't gone or else it's COVID. I get a lemon on refrigerator then squeeze it on hot water and add a spoon of honey. Also, I eat lots of fruits rich in vitamin C here at house such as Dalandan, Mango and Orange. I'm glad that I can still taste the food though my body keeps telling that I don't want to eat. When I finished eating my breakfast, I went to our room then take a sleep again. Though I can't sleep well since my body feels cold and I need to cover my self with blanket. I'm in place where it's too hot yet I'm feeling cold. Hopefully, i take some nap then when I woke up.
I check my read.cash and read some articles, I am planning not to publish an article today since I'm ill yet I don't want to break my goal to write an article per day. When I finished reading an article, i decide to take a nap again since I'm sleepy. I on the electrical fan and also cover my self in blanket and I'm glad that I sleep nicely. When I woke up in afternoon, I washed the dishes and also prepare in cooking the rice. I played 2 games on mobile legends then searched on Google if it's okay to take a bath even though I have flu and cold. Before our elders says that it's bad to take a bath if your having cold and flu since it might make the illness worst.
When I look on Google, I found out that it's okay to take a bath but only warm water since cold water may trigger other illness like cough and fever. I take a bath then I feel that my body is so heavy when I pour water on me, but when go out from the bathroom suddenly I feel too much cold. I return to our room then put blanket on me. I feel cold that's why I entertain myself by watching video clips on Facebook. Until tonight, my head is still heavy, I'm coughing yet my sense of taste is still there. I suspect that the reason why I have cold is jogging every morning, well everytime I woke up on 5 AM sometimes I have lack of sleep but I push myself to jog.
I jog almost 3 to 6 kilometers each day in order to strengthen my body. Also I'm always facing cold wind while I was jogging maybe that's the reason why my immune system got defeated and the bacteria dominates my body. I also roam around our vicinity last Xmas and New Year, maybe that's the reason why I catch up cold and illness around me. I already forgot to take my Vitamins C maybe that's the reason why i have weak immune system right now. Still I'm doing everything to rid this illness, I don't want it to last long that's why I'm taking remedies and eating fruits in order to gather nutrients. How about you? are you in cold and flu right now?
Keep Smiling, It's Important
Are you familiar with this phrase? Have you heard this one somewhere? Well, if your a mobile legends player and an angela user, you'll be familiar with this voice over. Smiling is an expression that our face create once we see something that makes us smile in an instant. For example, we saw our crush nearby then suddenly there's a smile drawn on our face. It's something that a person can wear, like a famous saying, smile is the best accessory that a human can wear. It's a contagious disease that once people saw a certain person Smiling then there's a hormone triggers on their mind and then they will also smile without noticing it. We need to keep smile everytime we saw nor encounter people, maybe if we encounter a person that experiencing problems, we can give them a smile and also they will smile in return. On all kind of diseases, smiling is the most advantageous, for an instance you are commuting in a train then suddenly there's a man burst into laugh.
Suddenly, you didn't realize that there's a smile drawn in your face and it will helps your brain to forget your worries temporarily. There are different ways to achieve smile, one of those is to see your loved once enjoying the things you give, another thing is when you saw your crush gives you a sweet smile, then you will also smile in return with so much giggle. We can achieve smile in simple things, I know that in this world there are full of evilness, cruelty, problems, struggles, failures and many more. That's the reason why people always forget to smile. They see the bad side of this world to the point that they forgot how to enjoy in life and show some little smile on their faces. It's a genuine expression that no one steal it from a person. Maybe those people are too much exhausted and already giving up in life that's why they see that there's no hope. Do you believe that smiling can make our life longer? Well if we talk about life we can realize that smiling can benefit and prolong our life, if you are full of positivity and you are always smiling then the worries in your mind is lessen, also it will benefit our health since we can avoid having illness due to some mental illness like stress and depression.
All I want to say is there's nothing wrong in smiling, it's a free expression that we can use anytime anywhere. Have you notice why people don't smile? Well in my opinion, those people that doesn't smile are those people that seen few things in life. They didn't see nor experience how hard to live, they didn't face any challenges that's why they find this life boring. Those are the riches and bureaucrats, they are born with luxurious life, they didn't experience to step their foot in a mud in order to earn decent income, they are just sitting on their sofa waiting for the money to arrive to them. It sounds nice yet as time goes by, those riches will realize that having luxurious life is nonsense if you always giving fake smiles to people around you. Unlike those people that living under the poverty line, it's proven that those poor people are the most happiest, despite of the difficulties and problems, they still didn't forget how to smile cause they are into it.
They already experience those problems that's why they just smiling on it like it's nothing. I will also relate this article to those got affected by the typhoon Odette, it's almost 3 weeks since the typhoon struck Visayas regions and its so devastating to see the effect of typhoon, yet I want to say that Filipinos are not down, we are into many typhoons and it doesn't stopped our spirit to face tomorrow with smile on our faces like a famous Filipimo saying, "Bagyo ka lang, pinoy kami". It's already in our culture that we keep smiling despite how hard the situation we are in, we are treating those disasters like a chicken since we don't want to break down. We need to keep smiling in order to show to our family members that there's still hope. We keep smiling since we believe that there's something much better will come after those struggles. Also, I want to dedicate this article to ate Ramona, she's so worried on her family in province, I just want to say that you need you need to keep yourself strong, I know that your family is safe in province. Don't think too much since it might affect your heart, I hope that on your next article we can see you again smiling.
A Not so Happy New Year
I just want to give you an advance sorry for this rant of mine. I just want to share what I felt right now. I've already shared it to my friend and surprisingly realized that it's my first time to share my pain in personal. Yesterday was supposed to be a happy new year, I woke with a message on my tab that a friend of mine is asking help since she's at unknown place and she wants to go home now. I taught she's just joking but she starts sending crying emoji. I woke up in my bed without washing my face then ask some details where she is, she told me that she's on Pateros Hospital, I'm worried since she might got in an accident. I messaged the exact location nor a land mark where I can see her but she told me that she's near on Hospital. I immediately check my wallet if I have money yet there's nothing, I remember that I used all the money to buy firecrackers last night. It's an emergency that's why I asked my brother if he have money then I'm gonna borrow it, sad to say he also doesn't have money left. My sister is still sleeping that's why I didn't bother her to wake her up then ask money.
Then I saw a hundred pesos on the table. I told to myself that I'm gonna borrow it but I'll return it soon as I cashout the money. I used the money as a fare in tricycle, I don't know where pateros Hospital is that's why I'm feeling lost. I ask many drivers and hopefully they are telling me the way. I reached Pateros Hospital then message my friend where she is. After 10 minutes of waiting, she finally showed up with her boyfriend. When I see her together with her boyfriend, it made me piss off since what's the essence of fetching her if she's together with her boyfriend. Then I ask what's she doing in this place then she told me that she went into her boyfriend's house and they drink but when she woke up she's alone and don't know how to go home that's why she contacted me. I am really disappointed on her, I really thought that something happen on her but i didn't bother to scold her. She's a kind person yet immature.
Im just trying to warn her about her act since she's a girl and it's not good that she left drunk and asleep on someone's house. She said sorry to me, I feel pissed off yet I'm trying to ask if she's okay. After that I accompany him in terminal of tricycle then we ride home. I sent her home then I also went home. There's a 20 pesos left on me that's why I return it on the table and planning to return full 100 once I got the money I am planning to cashout. A big shout out to Kuya @Eunoia since he's the one who helps me if I have money to transfer,a big thank you for you Kuya. While I was busy reading on read.cash suddenly my sister called us and told that a hundred peso is missing on the table. I immediately told her that I borrow the money but I'm gonna return it once I got the money I cashout. I already explained that I'm gonna return it but she start saying hurtful words, the most hurtful word that she told me is that, I'm a thief.
She keeps babbling other hurtful words then that's the time that I low my pride, I didn't answer her nor explain myself since what's the essence of explaining yourself if you won't get heard. I am a type of person that don't want to argue since I prefer to become quiet in order not to make an issue. I open my tab then watch Black Clover since it's serve as my stress reliever. I didn't cry but deep inside those words inflicted me so much. I try to erase those hurtful words that I hear on my mind but suddenly my tears fall on their own. I feel devastated, it's the first time that the pain defeats me. I cried while watching an anime. Then someone messaged me, a good friend of mine @Master_Romz143 that the money is ready to cashout that's why I prepared myself even though I have teary eyes. I went on Centennial then entered in their building. I knock on their door then her mother is the one who opened it.
I asked her mother if she's already okay now since she's having an illness. After that we go to neighbor house to cashout the money. When we return to their house, he asked me if I'm okay then that's the time that I didn't stop my emotion. A stream of tears fall on my cheeks then I told him what happen. I don't know where I go wrong, it's just a hundred pesos that I borrow and I already told that I'm the one who borrow it but why do I need to receive those hurtful words. They don't know what I'm doing inside the house, if there's no rice and viand, I'm the one who buying it without saying it to them since I also want to help inside the house.
I can't stop my tearsfrom falling, hopefully my friend is there to comfort and give some advice to me. It's the firs time that I release my pain to someone who ready to listen to me. It's a new me that sharing my problems to others. He keeps giving me advices and even let me play mobile legends on his phone so that i can temporarily forgot the pain in my heart. It's so hurtful, I know this may sounds cringe and some of you may tell that I'm just overacting but the pain stored in my heart for decades and it's the first time that I got breakdown. Sorry for this kind of nonsense article, I just to release the pain I have right now. I am still hoping for prosperous new year heheh, maybe?.
How's the New Year goes?
Everyone of us are waiting for the day that the year will shift to another number. Last year is not that lively, I didn't feel the presence of new year maybe because the world is still on lockdown and people are restricted to go outside due to threat of COVID-19 transmission. It was a year that has boring night since there's only few people celebrating, there's less fireworks and firecrackers. People are not allowed to celebrate outside their houses cause there's a barangay roaming around. However this year there's a little bit changed, I can see that people are slowly recovering from severe impact of pandemic last year. Inside our house my sister cannot cook founds for the reason that she's still working despite its already holiday.
She's working as a Cash manager maybe that's the reason why the deposits slips and OR are needed to do even it's holiday. At the afternoon, we just order foods and even buy fruits at the market. We complete the 13 round fruits and also my sister filled cups with rice and salts maybe due to belief of prosperity will come once everything in the house is full. After I helped my sister in preparing the set up of our house. I decide to attend the mass on Sto. Nino Church then after the mass, it's still early and I'm planning to buy firecrackers. I chatted in our gc that I'm gonna visit their house. I took my way on house of my friend then they are surprised to see me there. One of my friend is busy cooking the grilled meat. We are having fun since they don't know how to cook the meat well. They even asked me a piccolo and planning to lit it in front of us.
Hopefully we stopped him from doing such act and also throw the piccolo far then it exploded. After that I enter on their house and I got surprise that they are more than 10 inside the house. They are such a happy family since they are living in one roof. I'm a little bit shy to enter since I'm not a member of their family. After a while, I decide to leave together with Makoy since we gonna roam around SSB to find firecrackers. We reached SSB and we see lots of kids and adults enjoying litting those firecrackers. We continue walking while admiring those chicks passing nearby us. Yeah I admit I'm a little bit flirty last night. Maybe because it's New year. Then we ask the vendors if they are selling twitis, baby racket and five stars.
I'm a bad boy last night since we lit those firecrackers everywhere then the neighbors gonna get outside and scold us, we gonna say sorry and run. It's so much fun, I even met new people. After that I accompany makoy towards their house. I decide to leave at 9 since I need to go home or else my brother will kill me hahaha. I return home while holding different firecrackers, he's surprised to see those firecrackers and even scold me but when I dropped those firecrackers and enter the house. I suddenly heard a twitis flying and I knew it was my brother who lit it. Well he's the one who's brave to hold twitis then let go it when it's ready to fly. We also tried to lit those five stars and ended up scolded by neighbors haha.
It's already 11:50 when we start litting those firecrackers. I can see the excitement of people since they go outside their house and enjoy fireworks and firecrackers display. I even join litting those firecrackers. The most dangerous part is the five stars that will gonna explode immediately once lit it that's the reason why you shouldn't hold it in your hand or else you'll live next year with no hands or fingers. I even drink glass of alcohols since our neighbor let us shot what they are drinking. After that I return home to sing on our karaoke, as usual I have a beautiful voice, just kidding. I think it's already 1:20 AM when I decide decide visit my friends house again, I chatted them that I'm gonna visit them.
I took the highway road and when I reached their building, I saw their sibling in the balcony waiving at me. I go up in stairs then entered their house, I'm a little bit drunk that's why I don't know what I'm doing. I entered in third house then their family welcomes me and gave me food but I refused since I already finished ate at home. I borrowed their song book since I'm planning to sing. Well I shared my beautiful voice to them hahaha. That's how my new year goes, what about you? Is there any excitement happen?
Bonding with Mahfriends
As always what we do, we gonna meet up on heritage park every morning so that we can play. Actually I'm the first one coming on heritage park since I have this goal to strengthen my body due the reason that I know you read my past articles so yeah yesterday was my 3rd day in that goal and I made some improvements. I reached Venice Grand Canal Mall in a certain time before the sun rise. There are few people walking around, maybe they gonna go to work. I sitted at the bench while looking at the fountain at the entrance of Venice. I'm exhausted that's why I decide to take a rest for awhile then admire the beauty of surrounding. Well I saw lots of beautiful ladies but they are not suitable for me since I prefer those younger than me hahaha just kidding. After 15 minutes of resting, I decide to go back in heritage park since I have friends waiting there to play, sadly when I return to heritage park they are not there that's why I decide to go home. While on my way, I encounter the kids walking on their own. They say that they gonna play, I canceled out my plan to go home and accompany them in playing badminton. I think we played more than 45 minutes then decide to go home. I even accompany them in their house since itsnmy obligation to keep them safe since I'm the older than them. While in the afternoon, I chatted on our gc that I'm gonna come to their home, it surprised them to know that I knew their house. They also want to play badminton that's why I brought all the racket I have then took the way to their location.
Together with a friend of mine, we explore phase 1 pinagsama in order to find the yellow gate. Little did we know, we already passed the gate and we reached to far. We just laugh at each other, hopefully there are good people we ask, point the place we are looking for. We entered in a street but it's too complex since there are lots of streets in every direction. Hopefully the power of asking direction helps us to know the house we are looking for. When I reached the building, it's new to my eyes since I never stepped on that place before. It's so peaceful rather than tenement and Centennial. We surprised them in their house and I jokingly asked for food. I decide to roam around the area and it feels like forest but there are poops anywhere. There's also a big tree of tamarind but I doubt to get fallen fruit since there are poop of animals everywhere. After 20 minutes of waiting, we finally went to heritage park and start tovplay though the wind is so strong that we can't play well. We also took a group photo. It's a nice bonding however I go home early since I need to cook viand and rice at home. Then this morning I do my daily routine, I wake up at 5 AM then prepare myself for jogging, when I reached heritage park, it's surprisingly to see those people around even though tonight will be new years eve. I do some small warm ups then start jogging at long way. I don't the reason why every morning I feel like I'm gonna vomit.
Maybe my body is just surprised on excessive movements since the last time I jog that far is months ago. Still I continue jogging even if my body is not cooperating, hopefully there's no people around me that's why I'm shouting while jogging. As always, I reached Mc Kinley West at early time then took my way to Venice.Sad to say I didn't bring any gadget so that I can took picture but all I can say is, Venice is such a good place to visit. I visit the fountain again and admire its beauty. The new improvement I did is, I decide to jog straightly on Mc Kinley East. It's gonna be a long run and I think it's estimated 6 kilometers from heritage to Mc Kinley west to Venice to Mc Kinley East to Pallar Village to Panam Village ten return to Heritage park, actually it was 40 percent jog and 60 percent walk. I can't jognin Pallar Village since lots of people are passing by and they are busy buying fruits and other ingredients this coming New Year's eve. I'm happy to see Filipinos preparing for New Year even though some of us have no enough money to prepare delicious food. A simple Filipino dishes is enough to make New year happy. Also, it's in our tradition to have round fruits on table, maybe it's for the fortune. After that I successfully return to water fun then decide to order angels burger since I feel hungry.
2nd Day of Road to Fitness
I alarmed my phone then woke up early this 5 in the morning, I'm a little bit sleepy but I pinch myself so that I can totally wake up. I jump out of my folding bed then took my soap and toothbrush in the bathroom. I prefer to wash my face at the faucet outside our house so that my siblings won't get awake. After I finish preparing, I took my phone then chat a friend of mine that I will go first in heritage park. Little did I know he's already there. I first took a warmup exercise cause it's important not to push my body that can cause fatigue. I took a few steps on the circle then I saw a friend of mine calling me but I just give a signal that I'm gonna jog now. He keeps shouting to stay for a while but I'm aiming to reach Venice grand canal as early as possible. I started my jogging long road in heritage park. At first hundred meters I don't feel vomit and I'm glad that it didn't trigger. However when i already at 1 kilometer I feel like I'm gonna vomit and my heart is already aching. I can feel that I'm gonna die anytime that's why I'm taking rest by walking and then jog again. My feet is also numbing since it's so cold but it didn't stop me to continue my goal. I am aiming to make my body healthy and fit. I know it takes some time and process in order to achieve the goal that's why I'm determine now. Maybe you've already read my previous article that I have plan to woo my crush that's why I'm gonna need to change myself for the betterment and also give plus points on me if I have a healthy body.
After almost an hour of jogging I finally reached the headquarters of Philippine army and below of it is McKinley and Venice located. I admire the beauty of McKinley cause every corner of it was full of Christmas decorations that still lighting up. After that I went to Venice to look what's new but there's nothing change except the decorations in entrance. I stayed there for a minute to rest while looking at different people. You can totally sense how elegant and rich those people lived in condominiums in McKinley Hills. After that I decide to go back in heritage park. I took the way return to the park then I encounter different bikers, employees going to work and even people who also aiming to reach Venice. Just imagine jogging in a road with no energy left only my mind keeps telling me to continue, there's no sweat on my head and body since the cold breeze of wind hits on my face, it's so cold that I realize I need to bring a sweater. When I successfully return to heritage park, I saw my friend also walking on the path then he told me that he's planning to fetch me but I comeback with still complete hands and arms. I decide to buy buko juice on the stallthencwe start playing.
Anyway, another thing happened this evening is, I buy firecrackers in Tenement. It's already 7 in the evening but I'm planning to take those dangerous path. Dangerous yet it's the shortcut, there are lots of shawty no matter where I look and my eyes feast those cute ladies. However, I'm always applying the act of look away if they also look at me. The reason why I don't engage on any fights is because I'm an observant person, I don't look in people's eyes directly cause sometimes it may cause misunderstanding and they will think that your finding a fight. I'm having a struggle of going to the place where I'm gonna buy firecrackers since there are lots of chikababes anywhere that caught my attention. When I reached Barangay hall, I saw group of kids hanging out at the side then I approached them and ask where's I can buy firecrackers. They are so kind that they acocmalny me where the shop is, I ask the vendor if they have available Piccolo however they said that they have only five stars left that's why I bought 1 box of it worth 200 pesos. I give them 2 sachet of five-star consist of 20 rounda of firecrackers and we continue searching for piccolo sad to say all the shop are out of stock in the end I only bought five stars and I have this one box of piccolo. Don't worry I'm very careful in litting firecrackers since I want to live with full arms and legs.
Fixing Myself
Have you ever felt that there's something wrong in you? Like your living in this world however you don't know where you're going? I felt that thing for almost decades of living in this world. I always go with the flow, I don't have plans and goals in life that's why I don't know what should I do. My life is boring without goals, sometimes I tends to make some goals and plans but ended up didn't pursue it due to loss of interest. Maybe it's because there's no one made me motivated to do it. Before, I really love making stories and I have this goal to complete the story titled When Death Fell inlove to life however I lost interest to continue it, maybe you're already familiar with this story cause I've already shared it here few months ago. It looks like finished but the story didn't reached its falling action yet. It's in me that I immediately losing interest on one thing. I don't know what's my plan and goal to the point that I already forgot to take care my body.
I've been engage on playing mobile legends before too the point that i forgot to have some exercises and eat at time that's why I continuously loosing my weight. If you can see me right now I'm look like a stick man. However something changed have happened. There's a friend of mine that I talked about, it's a tiktok video of her and my crush. I got amazed on how my crush glow up she's now like a elegant woman and also cute. Me and my friend talk about that crush of mine but little did I know, she's taking screenshots of our conversation and sending it to my crush. Well it's not new to me since I already knew its gonna happen. I'm just acting like I don't know it, not until I learn that she's still single and no boyfriend since birth despite of how cute she is. I even jokingly said that I'm gonna woo my crush once I have muscles and abs then also money then my crush said to her that we gonna wait for the right moment if I already make a move.
At that moment I got motivated motivated fix myself, I've questioned myself why I'm like this for many years?. That's the reason why I've decided to fix myself, I need to become healthy and gain some wait by doing some exercises and eating healthy foods. Also, I need to grind more on read and noise.cash in order to accumulate some decent income. It's really different of me right now, I have goals and plan. I've started my plan to gain some weight this morning, I've prepared myself as early a 5 AM then went to heritage park to have a jogging. I've brought banana and dalandan on me do that I have something to digest before I jog. I'm aiming to reach headquarters of Philippines aremy which almost 2 kilometers away from heritage park. When I was on middle of jogging, I feel like I'm gonna vomit, maybe my body got shocked due to nonstop jogging and its months ago since the last time I've jog that far.
I vomit at the side of the road hopefully it's still dawn that's why there's no people passing by. Until I reached the headquarters and I'm happy to achieved such long jog, then the next thing I've done is to return in heritage park. I have no energy left but my plans keep insisting on my mind. I even shout and slap my face in order to awake myself. Then I continue jogging to return in heritage. I'm so exhausted and my legs is so numb, I can't move my legs but it's worth it. I've achieved the first day of jogging and planning to continue it everyday. It's really amusing to see that I'm starting to fix myself due to a one lady, maybe she's the reason why I'm going to change. One day I'm gonna show up in front of her which I already acquired six packs of abs and muscles, just kidding. I hope she's still single that time or else my effort will be wasted however for me it's still a win win situation and I'm very glad that she became my motivation to change myself.
It truly concludes that we just need to find a motivation for ourselves, we need to have motivations in order to pursue the goal and plan we set. Maybe on my part, I don't have any motivations before to pursue those goals that's why it ended up stopping those goal of mine. This upcoming 2022 I'll promise to myself that I will set goals and plans and I want to aim nor reach all of them. Some of those goals are owning the things that I want such as bikes, clothes and many different things. I can only achieve those goals if I pursue them, I need to make myself motivated and no room for laziness and procrastination in order to achieve what I really want in this life.
How Money Change the Person?
What would be the world without money? Can you imagine a world which people using other mode of payment to buy the things that they want rather than paper bill? What if money is not invented? Does it make the world more peaceful to live, since we have famous saying that money is the root of evil? Let me tell you the things on how money change the person. First, let's define what is money, in my opinion money is something that we can use to pay nor buy goods and services, it's a rectangular shaped bill that consist of different amounts that was only produced by government, any paper bill producers without marks are considered fake and a person using or producing it shall be punished by the law. When we go back in past which paper bill is not used, our ancestors are engage on exchanging products and foods called barter trade, it's famous around the world since our ancestors are exchanging what they have to other products. It's nice to see those kind of exchanges until, the evolution happened and our ancestors moved in another mode of payment which is using coin such as gold, silver, copper and bronze, those metals are used based on their values. Until industrial revolution happened and people discovered the most cheapest mode of payment to use which is paper money, it's more cheaper to produce than metal coins. One of the widely used currency even before is dollars which until now no matter what country you'll go, it's totally accepted. Humans are fascinated to use paper bills since in an instant you can buy anything you want if you own lots of it.
I know everyone would agree that paper bills is a great help to us, it made people's life easier since they just need to pull out the money in their wallet and pay the things they bought. There are lots of advantage that money can give, if you own lots of it then you can be consider as rich, you don't have to experience life difficulties if you have so much money stored in your wallet and bank. Totally, we can see that money circulates around the world and it mandates the people to move, the reality is you can't move without money. Every actions equals money, if you want to taste delicious food then you need money to buy it, if you want to achieve entertainment then you need money money buy appliances such as televisions. A sad truth is, money makes people happy, they thought that if they have money then they can achieve true happiness. That's the reason why disadvantages happen when it comes to money. Some people are too obsess in money to the point that they start doing illegal activities such as stealing, robbing, corrupting, and worst killing people just to own their money. Let me apply it to the current situation in government, In any part of the world we can't avoid the fact that government officials are engage on illegal activities such as stealing people's money cause they already become greedy to own lots of it. They don't care about people's situation as long as they can steal those money and flew away to escape from what they've did. It's also applied to bureaucrats that only think about money, they don't care on what you feel as long as they generate income or money out of their businesses.
It's already in nature of humans to become greedy, they are ready to do inhuman things for exchange of money. Even poor people are forced to do inhuman actions in exchange of money, those prostitutes that selling their body to anyone just to accumulate money for their own desires. I'm not referring to all of them cause some of them are just forced in that situation due to pressure of life and poverty. However, their actions are still immoral since they have different options in order to gain money money choose the easiest yet no morality. It's sad to see how money affects people's life and how they changed due to it. In contrast, if we tried to neglect those disadvantages, we can realize that money didn't totally conquered this world, there are still people that doesn't praise money instead they stick to traditional way of paying other people. Its mostly happen on remote areas around the world which their civilization doesn't affected by money. They are living on life of giving, exchanging different products and even sharing what they have. It's great to see this kind of community which wasn't influenced by money. I hope I can go in place like this so that I will no longer hold money in my hands and just rely on the things that nature can give. Have you also dreamed this kind of thing? Let me read your opinion regarding this topic.
Should we totally Respect Elders?
A few days ago, I encountered an article here on read.cash regarding the topic about respecting the elders. I don't want to spoil more about what happen but it's about the stereotypes that juniors should always respect their seniors or elders. Do you believe in this kind of mindset? Have you realized that respecting elders is a universal rules? No matter where place you go, it's a rule that always applied and cannot be break, if you break this rule then you gonna face mild punishments. Later on I will indicate some examples but now I'm gonna elaborate the meaning of respect and elders. Respect is something that we can give to those people that deserve it, we can give it to people that made lots of things, help lots of people, made you realize something and lastly we can give respect to older than us because people believe that elders have more experienced in life and knew what is right and wrong. While, elders define as those older people than our age, they might be seniors that already experienced lots of difficulties in life, they already see the reality of this world. For me, it's universal rule that we need to show respect to elders but we can also show some respect to other people that govern us no matter what their ages are, for an instance, those authority that maintaining peace and order, some of officers are younger than us but we greatly show some respect to them because we know how hard their job is.
In government, we totally respect those government officials with clear intent to lead people to it's happiness, they are the one who's providing for those who needy citizens. They act as a role model to its citizen and if the leader doesn't stand for his or her position and do lots of illegal activities then the trust and respect of its citizen slowly faded and turns into hate and anger. Now we know that respect for Elders is a universal law and cannot be changed however should we always apply this law in every aspect of life and situation?. Sad to say that some elders are abusing this kind of rule to the point that their pride and ego eat their system, have you read nor watched a video about an old woman that going to ride the jeep then she doesn't want anyone to sit beside her and wanna have discount on the jeep, she keeps insisting that she's a senior that's why it's her right to have those kind of perks. It's a little bit absurd since she's on public utility vehicle and her actions is not appropriate, she's not worth it to be respected since it's an act of selfishness. The video went viral and there's so much bashing to that old woman, there's also a debate regarding the word respect, some people agree that old woman must be considered on what she do since she's a senior and some negate it since no matter what age and she is, her actions is wrong in any angle. It's not appropriate to use that kind of mindset just to get what ever she want. It's really sad to see that those people that will lead and show us what is right are the one who's acting like child, using the situation to ease their life, feel pity for them.
They are type of elders that so selfish and still not that matured enough to realize what they are doing. I'll give another example but it's more accurate and precise, let's focus inside our home which involved our parents and relatives. May I asked yu a question? Can you still show a respect to your relatives that always comparing nor mocking you? I know lots of you have different kind of opinion of perspective, if you'll ask me what's my side them I'm gonna tell you. It's also a universal rule to respect our parents and relatives since they are also elders, they are the one who give birth to us and we are glad that we born in this world. There are some circumstances that parents are the one who's not respecting their children. Thinking only themselves and feels ignorant. They are thinking they should always be respected, sad to say that there are children which mocked by their own parents. Are they worth to be respected? I know the saying that in the end they are still our parents and no matter how they mock and makes us cry everyday, they are still the people we can rely on. However, there is also saying that if you want to be respected then you should also respect the people around you, that's the reason why families have conflicts due to fights. The worst is our relatives, I know all of you would agree that we have toxic relatives, they can easily mock us and downgrade us in front of many people, they are expecting a respect and we don't fight back cause they are elders however we humans have limitations. One day we gonna burst into anger and start wetting with those relatives that is so toxic and feeling like they are the one who's feeding us. In the end of this article, I just want to say that there's nothing wrong in cutting ties the relationship we had in people surrounds us specially family and relatives, if they are totally stepped out of the line and already stepped on you, it's better to leave than to stay that will just make you depress everyday.
How do I celebrate Christmas?
Today is Christmas and yesterday was the preparation of it. As early as 3:30 in the morning I woke up in my bed then prepare myself to attend the last mass which is the 9th day. I chatted my neighbor since he gonna accompany me. We went to Sto. Nino church and we saw lots of people attended the last mass. Im glad that all my sacrifices are worth it, just imagine waking up early in the morning then feeling so cold. I also think not to attend however I have the goal to complete the nine days. When we reached Sto. Church the mass already started we find a good spot then stand there while listening to the mass. After the mass ended we decide to took some pictures using my tablet. Sorry cause I'm so ugly in photo, I think my body became more thinner during dawn.
After the mass ended we went to heritage park but first we bought pares in a shop cause we feel hungry. Also we see that how we can eat the pares if we have no plate nor bowl and spoon to use. We saw a paper plate on the ground that's why I jokingly said to my friend that we can use it. Our first plan is to buy another food in seven eleven but it's gonna be a waste of money that's why we decide to buy Styrobowl and spoon in palengke. After that we went to heritage park then sit at the side of the road. I'm the one stayed there to eat cause my friend already finished eating then played with chicks that also sitting at the side of the road. I'm just there sitting while looking at different people while eating and reading on read.cash. I'm also waiting for our other friend to come. I decide to play with other people there and I show my skill. Actually, I'm good at playing badminton if I'm getting serious but I'm letting my opponents give some smashes.
Sadly, our friend didn't come, we plan to go home early cause we need to prepare in coming Christmas. I returned home then saw our door still close, it means my siblings are still asleep. Then I clean all the dry leaves and trashes on canal outside our house. Then I went inside the house then prepare the food. I started cleaning kitchen also I cook the viand. After that I checked my tablet to read here and also give tips on noise.cash. I feel tired that's why I took my afternoon nap then I woke up at 12:30. I went to the kitchen then started deeping fry the tokwa which my sister will use to cook tokwat baboy. It's so delicious and super hot. I also helped my sister fixing the house and installing new curtains cause we have visitors coming. It's great that our house got fully clean. We almost finished cooking at 5 PM then at 6 PM, I decide to attend the mass even though we've already attended early in the morning. However, I ended up accompanying the kids on neighborhood while they having caroling. I helped them by clapping and also dancing.
Yes I'm the one who's dancing in a Christmas song. They accumulated more than hundreds but I didn't bother to get my part and just give it to them. After we guide them to their houses me and friend roam around the vicinity of our area then lookcfor some chikababes. We also brought different firecrackers such as 5 stars and piccolo. Actually, I'm a playsafe when it comes in litting firecrackers. I prefer to use lighter and put down the firecrackers first before lighting it with fire, I have enough time to run. The fun part is we gonna run everytime we lit piccolo since the people around us might shout at us. Yesterday evening was one of the days that I became happy since I do the things against the law. We roam around and saw lots of girls then my friend showing his flirting skills but ended up rejected by girls. However I'm just chilling, I'm just looking at them then gonna find a spot where I gonna throw the firecracker then run. We even visited heritage park at 8:30 PM then saw lots of couple having dates even kissing.
We ended up their sweetness by putting different crackers around and litting them one by one, suddenly they gonna got scared due to explosions. We just laugh hard and run again way back to our area. Then we returned home to have videoke. Actually I didn't took photos of food since I'm busy roaming around. Then my sister asked me to fetch the food that she ordered at our neighbor. When I went there, I saw lots of people and they are my childhood friends. I'm glad to see them again, they changed a lot and they are so tall. I'm glad that they still recognize me. After that I bid goodbye to them and return home. I ate the food prepared, then they asked me to have alcohol drink but I refuse since I'm not fond of drinking any alcoholic beverages even if it's wine. Then at 1 AM I decide to roam around again then saw lots of boys hanging around and seems like finding a fight.
Hopefully, I knew the act of ignoring, I'm just walking straightly and always remember not to look in eyes of people so that you you avoid conflicts since looking at eyes of people will think them that you have problems with them. That's how my Christmas happen and after that I return home and celebrate more with my family. My sister had visitor that's why they are talking nonstop.
A Preparation for Christmas
Yesterday, I was possessed by the spirit of diligence in the afternoon I decided to clean our storage house. It's full of pots stored, clothes, dust and many more. First I clean the wooden bed that we use in resting and when I pull the bed a bunch of dust, trash welcomes me it makes me sneeze due to dust. Of course, I can't do the work once no music background's why I clicked YouTube then play the songs that I love especially those heartbroken ones. Even though it's Christmas I'm still fond of listening to sad songs especially the songs of Bandang Lapis and different covers of songs. It makes me more energetic to do the chores if there's background music. I knew some of you loved to do the chores with background music. I just feel that I won't feel exhausted since my mind is focusing on the song. After that, I clean the stand where our television and amplifier is, looks like I'm ready to sing on Christmas Day, I love to sing even though there's no occasion. Once I hold the microphone then expect a good voice that you can hear, just kidding. I'm not that good at singing but I can perform well.
My favorite genres are OPM and old songs, I prefer those rather than a new song that is full of nonsense. Old music consists of beautiful melody and also composed of deep meaning, music nowadays is trash full of bad words and sad to say even kids learning bad words due to listening to those bad songs. We didn't try yet to open my karaoke if it's still working since the last time we open it was my brother's birthday and guess what, it didn't turn on again, I was hoping that it's still working since it needs to get ready for song fights. We are only three here in our house since our other siblings return to the province. I hope it won't get boring I don't want to get Christmas already since it's gonna be a busy day washing the dishes. Also, I don't want to end this year yet cause I don't want to encounter such busy days in academics next year. I'm sure that after Xmas and New year then a bunch of activities and exercises will surprise us again. Sorry if I'm too talkative, after cleaning the stand I clean the floor using a rag. I've finished cleaning at 5 PM then moved to the next task which is cooking.
And this morning we attended the 8th day of simbang gabi, I never imagined that I can achieve and almost complete the nine days, tomorrow will gonna be the last, and maybe that was my moment to make a wish, maybe I'll wish to have 10 BCH but I know I need a miracle to make it true. After attending the mass then we gonna go to heritage park to play badminton. It's our daily routine after we attend the mass, we've met a lot of people we play with and also flirt with chicks. Don't worry I'm still a good boy after we finished playing badminton we then go home with satisfaction. When I got home I decided to clean the pots and clean those burned parts and make them shine again. The problem is I can't remove all those burned parts but I succeed to clean all the pots except that pan that needs to be soaked in water with baking soda so that I will be removed. I have lots of things to do since I'm going to clean the refrigerator also I need to wash my clothes, I feel exhausted and sleepy but I knew can handle this, maybe I'll sleep early this evening.
Anyway if you would ask me what I would be my plan this Christmas then I don't know, maybe I'll just eat all the food on the table. I hope that we have that kind of food on the table like what on the picture but I think it's only for those riches that can afford to prepare such a massive feast. Also, I and my friends are planning to buy firecrackers like a piccolo. They said they knew where they can buy, we are letting firecrackers even before, I'm taking safety measures if I'm gonna lit firecrackers like ensuring that it will light first before exploding. I also prefer not to hold piccolo before throwing cause some might have defects and in an instant I'll lose my finger or arm. Anyway, don't do what I'm stating here cause I'm born as hard-headed. What about you? What are your preparations this coming Christmas? Have you prepared ingredients for different foods you want to cook? Merry Christmas and happy new year, do I need to sing a Christmas carol?
Politics despite of Calamity
Recently, my country Philippines got hit by a strong typhoon named Odette, it's so powerful that's its like bagyong Yolanda that was hit on this country last 2013, so many people are dead, properties are vanish in an instant, agriculture is mostly affected by typhoon before that made lots of farmer loss their hopes. It's really a nightmare for us but another typhoon came, though people got prepared however the houses and animals can't survive the monstrosity of the typhoon. I'm here at Luzon area which not affected by typhoon, I monitor whats the update on typhoon cause our relatives are living on Iloilo which part of Visayas. They said that it's calm and only wind coming from the sky, it's the most terrifying ability of mother nature, she gonna make a silent move and surprise humanity with such devastating calamity. Until the strong wind was combined with lighting and heavy rain, i told them to keep safe and be prepared.
Then the typhoon hitted and we have no contacts on them, we are so worried since there are cases that even a concrete wall can be destroyed by rain and strong wind, after two days of raining, finally it stopped. We tried to contact our family in province but they are unreachable we are so worried until there's Facebook post that the cell site has been take down by typhoon, I can't imagine such massive cell site that been standing for decades is take down by typhoon. Hopefully my family in province is safe, but our relatives located at the sea shore had more devastating situation. Their houses got wrecked by such strong tidal waves, there's nothing left except bamboos and woods floating on the sea. It's such terrifying scene but the important is they are safe. As we can see despite of all calamity, Filipino resiliency is still there, everyone of us are helping each other no matter what our status is.
We are not afraid to face the effect of those calamity instead we stand up and face tomorrow with smile on our faces. I saw on Facebook how people act quickly specially those NGO and private sectors. Even a normal peoplr done lots of things like posting on Facebook asking for help for those affected in typhoon. I even saw lots of streamers raising funds for those affected. It's truly we can see how Filipinos act in every disaster we are facing. It really proves that no matter how strong disasters break us then it doesn't break our Filipino Spirits. There are also politicians who joined in helping those people affected by Odette, they are making their actions like giving relief goods, traveling to one place and another to personally give those helps. Sad to say, those helps been combined with politics.
This photo made me questions if presidential candidate Leni Robredo really wants to help those people affected by typhoon or just campaigning and showing what she done on social media. I'm not a typical person who choose a favorite presidential candidate but I'm judging them base on their actions. As you notice, Leni Robredo really loved attention from media. Every actions she's doing are caught by camera and have a video then it was posted on different social media platforms. I believe that if you truly wants to help then posting it on social media and broadcasting on television is not necessary. In the photo, it gave me a meaning, I think Leni is campaigning here since the old woman is wearing a pink shirt which you know what I mean. It's really sad to see this kind of helping people, it's like a utilitarianism which you are doing good cause you are expecting a good return.
Another presidential candidate named Bongbong Marcos also made his move, what I like about him is not he's a attention seeker. I'm not saying that I'm a Marcos supporter but I'm basing on his action. He act without cameras around him, he fly on different places to check those affected by typhoon and give them help. Did you know Manny Pacquiao? He's also running for presidency and I love what he did, he posted on social media that politicians must neglect political matters for a while then collaborate to each other to help those affected by typhoon. I'm glad that Leni Robredo agrees with it however Ping Lacson disagrees on Manny Pacquiao and said that Manny said something that made him absurd.
Good thing is they are helping people mo matter it's political or came from the heart. The important is they are uniting for benefits of many. I am hoping that those affected by typhoon will find hope despite of all struggles they faced during and after typhoon. I hope they will recover as soon as possible, I know that our president will give it's best to help those affected. I am also wishing that those bureaucrats will open their heart and help those people, it's now time for us to unite, it's time to neglect those misunderstanding, it's time to neglect those social status and join force to help affected people. Let's show them that their life doesn't end once they face a calamity, there's always a hope in times of downfall. We should give them a merry Christmas and show them that they are not alone.
Hello guys so I'm just here to introduce my new recruit charr, she's @Cassandra143, don't worry she's a friend of mine and also want to learn about read.cash and its community, it's also good that I spread awareness about BCH.
A Christmas Gift for Myself
Last month when I ordered on Shopee a single racket of myself, it was my goal since last year however I forgot to buy. I owned a single racket and I love it, I want to buy another one so that it has pair. I browse on shopee then look for a good quality badminton racket then I found this racket worth 1,500 pesos and it has good quality and also affordable. I look at the reviews and found out that they are satisfied. I immediately add it on cart then pay it using coins.ph. I chatted the shop owner and asked for max tension and a green color however the owner recommend to me the 26 lbs thats why I deal with it. I asked how many days it takes to deliver then the owner response 15 days. I waited 15 days then message the owner about my parcel but the owner said I need to wait, it made me a little bit upset since they said 15 days. I wait for a week and monitor if it's shipped out however my order doesn't move. Thats why I message the owner again and said that I need to item since I'm gonna give it as a gift. That's why they said to me that they gonna deliver it before December 20 and after 3 days my parcel already arrived.
After I received my parcel I immediately posted it on my myday to make my friends jealous hahaha just kidding. It's so cool since it's so light to lift and even though it's not green still I'm glad that they gave me white and black with good design. I tried to use it and i love the sound it makes, I'm really excited to try it however its still raining that time. This is the gift for myself for all the hardwork and pain I've done. It's really satisfying though my siblings said that I'm just wasting money, this kind of things makes me happy, it's my happiness and badminton is already part of my life that's why i have the rights to buy the things I want. I am happy to own the things that I don't have before, it's really satisfying in feeling. Anyway, badminton is not complete without shuttle cock that's why on 12.12 Christmas sale, I bought one tube of shuttle cock worth 500 pesos. It's little bit expensive but the durability is assured since the logo of shuttle cock is Russ. I used all the available vouchers and coins in order to lessen the price and I've only paid 500 pesos. I'm waiting for its arrival but the shopee gave a notice that the deliveries are suspended due to typhoon. I waited for almost a week before my parcel arrived and I'm happy when it's delivered on me.
I'm happy on what I've received since it's Russ with pink shuttle cock, I'm looking for yellow one but there's no available that's why I choose pink. Still it's durable and fly high like what I've used before. There are 6 shuttle cock in a tube that's why if one shuttle cock destroyed I have lots of reserved. Anyway this morning, we attend the 6th day of simbang gabi together with a friend of mine after I attend the mass, I return to my house since there are orders of plants need to give on buyers. At 6 AM I walk to heritage park then found my friend playing with a girl, he's always a playboy, or maybe he's just a good person. After that I pull out my new racket then decide to practice smashing. While I'm on middle of practice, there are guys approached me and ask me to play with them.
I played with them and they are so good, I found out that they are players before that's why their movements and style are familiar on me. I giving them high receives so that they can perform a smash and I'm the one who gonna block those smashes. Actually I'm not good at playing badminton, I'm also trying to learn more advance skills and I'm not that strong enough to perform those mind blowing smashes. Also, I played with other people, and I'm glad that I knew lots of people in heritage park due to badminton. It's also my daily routine since I need to strengthen my body. I'm waiting for other friend of ours but maybe they are busy, at 7:50 we decide to go home since it's already hot and sunny in heritage park. Zoe are so exhausted and dehydrated that's why we bought buko juice worth 10 peso in a stall nearby. We are drinking it while we are walking straight on our designated houses.
How about you how's your day? Anyways, read.cash is updating and under maintenance to the point that I can't write an article on my recent browser. Until I found an article of Ma'am Eybyoung which she said that users who can't access read.cash may try to install Duck Go browser that's why I tried it. I look for seed phrase on my messenger and tried to transfer it but I notice that my balance is zero until I found that I enter other seed phrase and I didn't save it a long time ago such feel pity for myself since I lost 20 dollars but I have back up plan, if the system is already repaired and everything backs to normal then I'm gonna pull out the money on my account then stay on Duck Go browser.
Fudge bar, I tried to login in Duck Go like what Eybyoung recommended and I'm thankful on her, however I forgot the seed phrase of my account and i tried seed phrases stored in my messenger however I think I didn't write it down, pity for me I lost a 20 dollars still I'm waiting for the update on my recent browser since the money is stored there. Can I ask question? Is it okay that I have this account on two browsers?
Hope for the Victims of Typhoon
I've woke up this morning since I need to attend 4th day of Simbang gabi however I notice that the rain didn't stop. Since yesterday it rains here on Manila maybe it's the effect of typhoon even though it's slowly moves out at the Philippine Area of Responsibility, as of writing right now the sun is welcoming us again and I'm glad that the rain stopped. This morning, it's so cold that I am thinking if I will attend dawn mass, there's a thought in my mind to not attend the mass however I promise this year that I will complete the 9 days. That's why I moved my body then get my soap and toothbrush, I wash my face and brush my teeth. It's so cold that my body is shaking. It's raining heavy but I'm dedicated to attend the mass.
At 4 AM I went to the church, I assume that there's no mass due to strong rain however I saw lots of people inside and outside of the church while holding an umbrella. It's already full inside the church that's why I find a spot where there's a roof. I stay there and listen to homily of the priest. It's amusing to see that even though it's raining, Filipinos are still devoted to complete 9 days. As I listening to the priest, he include in his homily the situation of people in Visayas due to typhoon. He said that we need to pray for the fast recovery of those affected. As I listening to the homily, I suddenly feel pity for the victims since Christmas is coming yet they need to experience this kind of tragedy.
Specially those people in Eastern and Southern part of Visayas which included my home province Iloilo. I saw my days of my friends in Iloilo and I feel pity for them, lots of trees are branch out from soil and barricade the highway, lots of crops are affected and been drowned in rain water, lots of livestock like chickens are dead due to flood. I saw a video of them in Facebook and it's terrifying terrifying witness how monstrous Odette is, it rampages throughout the region and give nightmare to people. Even a famous tiktoker, Philip Tananas have video regarding how devastating typhoon hits their place, lots of trees are down and there's no electricity since cable lines got cut out and post are down. The most sad part is, some people have no home to live anymore, specially in my province which those houses can be found on shoreline are swallowed by tidal waves and only ruins can be found.
I feel pity for them since they are now living inside the jeepney and they are problematic where they will live. It takes time to rebuild their house. It's a nightmare for them since Christmas is coming and it happens to them. I read an article earlier then in article includes that God is the one who control climate. The author include Bible verses proving that God is the superior and controller of all things including weather. I am thinking if it's God work to punish people due to so much cruelty, does humanity is too sinful that God create disasters so that humans will feel his existence?
If it is, then why does he need to punish those good people, they are the one who greatly affected. I'm in the middle of thinking if it's God work or a natural phenomena. In side of science, typhoons occur due to negligence and bad actions of humanity, it's the result of human cruelty and now we all suffer. We suffer from our own actions but sa to say those people doing bad are not affected but those people under the line since they are living on areas that natural phenomena is rarely happen.
In the end, I will pray for the safety of everyone, I know there are lives that been taken due to typhoon but for those who survive they need to move on and start a new life, it's already in culture of Filipinos that no matter how calamities take us down, we always stands up and continue the life, like what thdy said, there's always a sunrise after the darkness. We need to start a new life, and for us who not affected, we need to unite so that we can help those people that needs help. A simple donations or donating foods is a big help to those got affected, it takes time for them to heal the wounds that the typhoon created however they need emotional and financial support, we need to show them the kindness of humans and they must feel the presence of Christmas and we need to show them happiness despite of disaster.
Simbang Gabi
Simbang gabi was started at December 16 and earlier this morning is the 3rd day of it. Here on Philippines, Filipinos believe that once you complete simbang gabi then you can wish anything you want then it will come true. For me it's just a saying however the true meaning of Simbang Gabi is to give effort and time to go in churches and sacrifice our sleep then praise the birth of Jesus. I am dedicated to complete 9 days this year that's why I always alarm my phone at 3:30 AM since the simbang gabi starts at 4 AM. I am attending the mass at Sto. Nino Parish located at signal village and a hundred of meters away from our house. I have companion which is my neighbor friend that is early bird. He always wake up early that's why I accompanied him in Simbang gabi.
The problem is he's not focusing on mass instead he's looking at different cute girls surrounds us, at first day of simbang gabi there are lots of girls around and they are all cute, however I strengthen my will that I will focus on God and those interruptions around me must be eliminated in my mind. We also sense outside the church since there are lots of people inside, we are also taking measures since pandemic is still there. You can't believe what we are wearing, I'm just wearing a shirt then a short with rubber shoes and a badminton bag at the back of us. The main reason is that, after we attend the mass we gonna go to heritage park to have a jogging and also play badminton.
Despite of all circumstances, I manage to take the homily of the priest and it made me realize something, on the 3rd this morning, he asked us, is it worth it that we are living on this world?. This homily is for those people that lose hope to live, I understand that all humans have purpose to live. It's normal that we face struggles and failures and sometimes those struggles crash us into tiny pieces, the priest also said that once we experienced lots of problems and no one to talk about it. We just need to look at above then talk God, he's always there to listen to our problems and we can ask guidance from him, he will give signs to help you in overcoming those problems.
As I roaming my eyes around, I saw this burial assistance which there's a coffin inside and people guarding it. A tears suddenly falls from my cheeks, I remember the exact scene happened 3 years ago when my sister died. I hide my face so that no one will notice that I'm crying, I just focus myself in listening on homily. When mass ended, we took our way to heritage park. I think it's still 5 AM and as we approach the park it's still dark but there are lots of people around. We then find a good spot, yesterday it's also what we've done and we met a common people around us. I've met this girl which I thought she's just 16 years old however when I asked her she's already 19 years old. She's with her siblings and we play one on one, I asked her where her parents then she told me that her mother is left on the house while her father died last month.
When I hear what she said, I immediately became sad and said sorry to her. She also confess to me that she already had a child, he's a boy that I played with badminton. She got pregnant at 16 and now his baby boy is 3 years old, I don't feel any judgment towards her but I feel pity since the father of the child is not giving support on her, they left the father of his son since she feel that the boy is not responsible. I don't make any further discussion cause it might feel awkward and she might feel that I'm stepping out of the boundary.
We can't judge nor mock those teenage girls who got pregnant at early age since it's a mistake that they've done and we humans are not perfect. The most important thing is, she handled to deal with those problems that she encountered and her son is so cute just like her. The most important things that she can do is to support her son and give the best on him. The life is not ended oncewe fail, we can still rise up from the past and move on to the present, we need to prove that those mistakes can be an opportunity to achieve the true happiness we are seeking in this life.
Santa is in your House: Finale
Part 1 https://read.cash/@Codename_Chikakiku/santa-is-in-your-house-not-a-christmas-story-03dcfcea
Part 2 https://read.cash/@Codename_Chikakiku/santa-is-in-your-house-not-a-christmas-story-03dcfcea
I can feel that this case is nearly to find the truth, I have gut that this murders and killings are related to that photo since all the victims are presented on that photo. I took the photothen paste it on the board, I tried to locate all other people in that photo so that I can gather more information. I look at the database and ask different people if they knew who the person am I looking for. I found this man named Archie Winston, he's living near the lake and he was well known here on this area as a bad person, I didn't want to engage on what he's doing, the more important for me is to question him if he knew the boy on the photo. I went in his place then I saw him busy repairing his motor. I approach him then he sudden gave me a smirk, I approach him calmly then introduce myself. I directed him with questions regarding the photo then he suddenly became quiet.
I told him that I already knew what they've done in the past and anytime I can arrest them that's why I gave him a chance to talk or I'll put him into jail. He don't have any choice but to tell the truth, the name of the boy on the photo is Sam Campbell, he's a sophomore in high school when they start bullying him, he's also thin and doesn't fight that's why it's easy for them to bully him. He also told me that they are just pranking him to throw in the river and they thought he knew how to swim however he got drowned and never seen his body. While he's talking I was thinking if it's possible that Sam is still alive and taking revenge to those people that bully him before?. After I questioned the man I immediately leave place then gave him an advise to keep safe and always close the door, no one knows who will be the next victim. I went back on my Motel and it's already 3 in the morning but i can't sleep, I am trying to know if Sam is still alive and he's the culprit behind all the killings.
Suddenly, phone call I receive then it makes me terrified, the man that I questioned earlier got found on his house headless, his body is full of deep wounds from axe. I even terrified more, is it possible that I encounter this killer somewhere and trying to follow my path so that he can also know where his victim lives?. At the crime scene I suddenly feel hopeless, I am starting to blame myself from all the killings happened. I entered in the crime then look zt rhe body of victim, the murderer is seeking too much revenge to make this kind of monstrous act. As I look around, I notice something, it's a pawr where there's a letter made from blood written there, it says "I will kill all of you". I feel chill on my spine, I can feel that the killer is around me but I don't know who he or she is. When I look at the back of the note, I notice a numbers on it. Seems like the killer is giving hint who he or she is. At first I thought it's a code however I suddenly realize it's the IP address that's why I immediately took my phone to locate where the address is then drive to that area.
Seems like its abandon house, there are webs everywhere and there's no sign of people around. The whole area is abandoned and a perfect place to hide evidence on the crime. Itook out my gun then prepare myself, I open my flashlight then kick the door, I need to become aware since the killer must be hiding and ready to ambush me. I look at every room but it's all empty, it's the last room that I open then I saw a cabinet there. I slowly open it then saw a Santa costume, it's full of blood and creepy to look. I see now its the hideout of the killer. I also notice an axe on the wall and seems like it's the murder weapon. Suddenly I smiled, I knew who's the killer already. I put my gun into safety then approach the costume. It's very fit to me and blood is so fragrant on my nose. I knew it, I'm the killer, I'm Sam Campbell who was died 10 years ago. Maybe you are wondering why I'm seeking revenge and thought that I was dead.
I hide on the rocks when they thrown me in the river, my childhood and teenage years became a nightmare due to them. I experienced hell everyday due to them, I want to fight but I am always beaten, when I escape from them I escape my previous life then start a new one. I promised to seek revenge to them and wait for the right time. I pursue every opportunity, I studied at university then took a Criminology, I have no intentions to help people but I want to become a police so that I can determine what are the evidence that can be found in crimes, I also studied the perfect tactics in doing crimes without being caught, I also studied law in case I am accused by my crime. Everything was in perfect and it's time to execute my plan.
Did you remember the first part which is a case of John McCain wearing a Santa Costume and was killed? That legend was famous here on town that's why I use it as an opportunity to execute my plan. In that way I use the costume of McCain to pretend that he's a ghost that seeking revenge, also I am a police that's why I have access on murder weapons used in crimes. I stealed it and no one will notice that McCain axe is missing cause it's been forgotten for decade. The finger prints are still there that's why I used gloves in order not to attach my finger print on the weapon, that's the reason why people think that I was McCain who's seeking revenge. Such a perfect crime right, I can freely kill those people that bully me before. I am happy seeing their blood oozing from their body and taking their head as a trophy of me, I've already collected 4 heads here and two more, I'm on the way to their house so that I can slaughter them. No one will suspect me since I'm the one who investigating my own crime.

Santa is in your House 2
Feel free to visit my profile in order to find the first part, actually I don't know how to continue this story however I realize something, what if I made a story which is different and there's something big plot twist, actually the first plan of this story must be related to paranormal entity like ghost that wanna take revenge however I notice that it's too boring and easy to predict that's why I come up with the idea of making it different, I'm not gonna spoil more, I want you to discover it on the story, without further a do let's continue this story of mine.
___________________________________________
As I was investigating the scenes, I checked the background of victim, she's a woman ages at 30 plus, she's an active member of the society and there's no reason that a person will kill her brutally, I can see that it's not robbery since there's no things not money taken from her. The intention is to kill her but the problem is why? I asked her neighbors and they all the same statement that she's a good neighbor and doesn't have any enemies. This case is so confusing. I need to dig deeper, as I searched inside the house. I went inside her room then found a photo, it's a old photo which there are group of teenagers surrounds a young man and I think they are bullying it. I am confused who's in the picture that's why I took the photo as part of evidence cause it caught my interest. I am currently on my Motel looking for further evidence regarding the case the case that I'm handling.
It's so confusing and also unbelievable since the potential suspect for this case already died 20 years ago. Suddenly, there's a cold breeze entered on my room. I feel chill on my spine, I suddenly feel terrified I'm thinking if I'm gonna let go this case however I'm determine to solve this case. I am preparing to sleep then attempt to close my window however I saw in the distance someone standing, I can see that it's a male that's why immediately went out from my room then try to look for that man however when I got out he's already not there. I went back to my room then ask myself who's that man, is it possible that he can gave me clues regarding this killing incident. I'm too tired and wanna to take a nap, I alarmed my phone so that I can wake up early. While I'm in deep sleep there's a sudden call from my phone, another murder happened and the same scenario again.
I Immediately wake up from my bed and went at the crime scene. It's at dawn yet there are police everywhere and citizens are out of their house, I went inside the crime scene. I saw a man lifeless while there are blood everywhere, his whole body almost got chopped and base on the wounds the murder weapon used is axe. However there's no murder weapon presented on the crime scene, I immediately took out my phone then call at the police station if the murder weapon that was found yesterday is secured, a moment later a police said that it was missing and they don't know how it comes that it was missing. It makes me more confused, Am I dealing with paranormal entity?. I heard rumors from citizen that the spirit of John McCain is tooking revenge after 20 years, he's slaughtering people in this village, as I hear those gossips I feel chill on my spine, is it possible that the soul of McCain is taking revenge?. I am a Detective that's why I entered inside the crime scene then find a evidence that twill point who's the killer.
This killer is like a ghost since there's no evidence that can prove its identity, there are mess everywhere and the crime scene is intact however there's no evidence nor finger prints, I can only smell a scent of candle. Is it possible that I'm dealing with ghost?. I enter the victims room then found a old picture frame, it was his picture when he's teenager. I remember his face, he's also in the picture that's I found on the first victim, is it possible that the killer is taking revenge to those in photo? But how come that McCain is taking revenge on them? what's their relationship with McCain if he's died 20 years ago?. So man questions formed in my mind but one thing for sure, those victims and future victims can be found on the photo that's why I immediately ask lots of people and check the data base in order to locate those people in photos. I found all of them and hopefully they are still living on the same place.
I tried to contact one of them and hopefully she insist to be questioned by me. When I show her the photo she immediately become terrified and cover her mouth, seems like she knows something. I asked her who's in the photo then she started telling a story, she said that the photo was taken 10 years ago, she pointed where she was and the victims who's killed. She also pointed out the person, she said that his name is Carl West, he was bullied and always hurt by her group of friends. She has nothing to do with it that's why she just join in bullying that boy. Suddenly, her tears dropped and confess something on me, she said that they made a crime when they bully the boy then play with him.
The boys in photo throw the boy at the river and laughing so hard, they saw that the boy is drowning however they just laughing and watching it. Until the body of the boy can't find nowhere, they searched for it but due to strong flow of water in river the boy must be dead. The leader of the group threatened them that they might not tell it to police or else all of them will be putted in jail. The woman cried heavily she's afraid that she might be the next victim, but I givdbher assurance that I will protect her and no one will be dead again. Now I'm confused, is it possible that the boy in the picture is the culprit? Arghhh the evidence are too messy, I don't know where I'm gonna start. One thing for sure, the killing happened and the victims are on the photo.
**Author's Message:**
I thought I can finished it on part 2 however I have lots of ideas to add, lots of twist and also makes your mind works to know who's the culprit if all the potential killers are dead, can you guess who's the killer, if you can then I'm gonna give you a reward. I'm gonna continue this story tomorrow.
Santa is in your House (Not a Christmas Story)
Before I start this article let me remind you that it's not a typical happy story about Christmas actually I'm really energetic to write horror paranormal stories tight now even though Halloween already ends. Still I gave a warning before you dig in reading this article of mine I hope you'll like the bloody story I will make.
I am sitting here on office waiting for an assignment that will assign on me, it's been weeks since the last time I solve the mystery of murder and I was congratulated by my colleagues and my superior gave me time to enjoy myself however I prefer to stay here at office to get some actions. Until there's a weird case that was posted on the board, no one wants to take it that's why I ask my colleague what case is it. He said that it's the murder case in a village, no one wants to take the case since it's not normal and there's no evidence pointing out who's the murderer. I feel excitement when I heard it that's why I insist to handle the case. It's near Christmas and it was weird cause the witness of murder says that the murderer wears a Santa Claus costume, at first I can't believe what kind of person who will wear a Santa Claus costume. I gather all the necessary information then paste all the evidence on the board.
I'm good at analyzing the cases that's why I synthesize all details then I found one interesting evidence. The murder always happen every year during 18th day of December on the specific area in a city, I am curious why murder happen on this date and only happen on one place, one thing I knew to answer those questions is to visit the area to know the truth. I went inside my car then drove to the place where the murder happen, as I enter the area I feel something uneasy, there's a heavy atmosphere surrounds this place and a dark secret its hiding. It's already Xmas however few people only have decorations outside their house, as I approach the house where murder happened, it was full of decorations from inside and outside of the house, there are also figures of Santa everywhere, the crime scene is still there and I can see the mess everywhere, seems like the victim tries to fight the murderer however she was killed brutally, there's blood everywhere and lots of things are broken.
According to the police I talked, the lady was found lifeless and her head is not attached, the blood are splattered on walls and floor and the murderer leaves an evidence. The most important evidence that the murderer left is the weapon used which is an axe, the police already analyze the murder weapon and knew who's finger print it is however it makes me terrified when the police said that the finger print found was owned by a person who died 20 years ago. It gives me chill on my spine, i asked the name of the murderer then locate his address. I tried to call the number on address however it only rings, that's why I decide to go on my own the house is located near the lake and the surrounding really gives me chill in spine. I see that there's people inside the house that's why I clicked the door bell, I waited there for 5 minutes until there someone open the door however the old man is holding a shotgun.
Seems like he's afraid on something however I told him that I'm here to investigate a case which his son is involved. When he hear what I said he immediately close the door and look at window he assure that no one is around. He let me sit on the couch then gave me a drinks, he started telling me that his son was died 20 years ago, he knew his son as a kind and smart boy however he notice that his son always wear the Santa costume even though it's not yet Xmas, he also notice that his son's behavior changed and seems like there's something possess him. One time his son is acting weirdly and he didn't worn out the costume, they tried to tear the costume however it seems like attached to skin of his son. He also said that it was start when his son accept the dare to enter in abandoned house and get something inside of it, then his son get the Santa Claus costume.
That's the start of nightmare for them and their son acting weird. The old man also told me that his son was killed by a gun when he attempted to kill someone using the axe. They buried his son six feet under the ground. However 20 years later, the Santa Claus murderer showed up again and killing victims. That's why he's so cautious in his surrounding and always holding his shotgun cause the murderer might entered his house and kill him. This case is very weird for me, this is the first time I encounter this kind of case, is it a kind of prank? Its very impossible that the person died 20 years ago will be rose from his grave and wanna take revenge, but why the murderer wants to take revenge? I think I need to stay on this place for a while to investigate more.

Aswang Last Part
From the day that time first saw her that's the time that I love her at first sight. There's an incident of killing in barangay that I was staying, I am worried to Miah cause their lives might be in danger since there's no man on their house that will protect them. It's also late at night to go outside and dangers are lurking everywhere, there are barangay tanods roaming around to secure the safety of people. There are rumors that Aswang is striking again and they have idea who it was. They need to find evidence first before accusing that person. When the sun starts to rise, I immediately went out from my bed then prepare myself, I'm gonna check Miah and Lola if they are okay. I use my car then went on their place, fortunately Miah is outside their house busy clearing those leaves fallen from the mango tree. As I saw her simplicity my heart beats fast then I sit deeply and approached her. She's surprised to see me that early, there's a awkwardness surrounds us but I break it.
I insist myself that I will help her in household chores, at first she decline my offer but I just said it's free. In the end she told me that I need to fetch water from deep well then gonna break and cut woods using axe. First thing I do is to fetch water, I don't know that Miah is fetching water on deepwell few kilometers away from their house, I can't imagine that she do it everyday. I manage to fetch 10 pale of water then I am very exhausted, I decide to take a rest then Miah gave me a Coffee and a bread. My exhaustion was gone when she smiled at me, she's like an angel in my eye, then we talk lots of things while sipping my coffee. After that I went at their backyard to cut those dried woods, they are using woods in cooking and it would be time consuming however they don't have choice since buying stove and gas tank is too expensive. For 2 weeks, I always visiting their house to help her doing the chores, for two weeks with her makes me realize that I already fell inlove with her.
Until one day we are having a conversation on the vast field while we are looking at the beautiful sunset. That was a sweet moment for us, we are talking lots of funny things until we became both silent. That's the moment that I confess my love to her, I lean on her then hold her hand, she's surprised on what I did. I am very nervous and my heart is in mixed emotions. I strengthen myself then ask her hand. I asked her if she became my girlfriend cause I'm truly inlove with her and I think I already found the girl that I will love forever. As I say those words, she's having teary eyes. The perfect sunset makes the moment more sweet and memorable, there's no words comes to her mouth and she just crying. Until the sun totally set and then she run away. Suddenly, my world got collapse, I don't know what happen. Am I not worthy enough to get her heart? I feel broken, I collapse on my feet, the only thing I can do is to watch her running away from me. Maybe it's my faith that I won't get a girlfriend. My heart is in pain right now, I went at the trunk of my car then get the beer. I drove to the place where I found before, I sit at the bushes then watch the beautiful full moon.
I release the pain I feel thru drinking beer. Maybe I'm a total failure in everything specially in love, no matter how effort I will do I'll ended up in rejection. Maybe it's time to go back in my old life, I'll dedicate myself in work then I will return in Manila to continue my boring life. I'm in total pain right now, I didn't realize that my uncle is calling, I don't have any energy to talk with people right now. I put my phone away then stay at that place for 2 hours. I got the courage to move then look at my phone then I saw a text message, it's from my uncle saying that i need to go back home right now. I can see that it's important thing that's why I immediately went inside my car then drove back to my uncle's house. As I approach the house I saw lots of people gathering specially men holding torches and machete. I get out from my car then approach my uncle, he said that there's another victim but she survived and saw the Aswang. My uncle said to me that the victim saw the Aswang and it was Miah.
My world got collapse again on what I hear. I don't want to believe it since it's impossible. Then the man starts marching on the way to Miah's house. There's still part of me that it's not Miah that's why I took the shortcut to Miah's house. When I reached on their house, there's no person inside of it. Suddenly, I heard lots of men shouting they said that they found the Aswang and they killed it. I immediately run towards them and saw the Aswang lying on the ground, I feel pity on what I saw cause it was the old lady. It was the grandmother of Miah, then they conclude that Miah is also Aswang that's why they searched the whole area. I also took the opposite part and trying to look for Miah, I want to know the truth. I entered in the vast dark forest.
I am hoping that Miah will show up there and explain to me. I feel nervous and my heart beats really fast, suddenly there are sounds of footsteps and flaps of wings. Suddenly, a figure from above moved in front of me. It was a very dark creature with wings and distorted face. I immediately recognize that it was Miah because I knew her by heart. She transformed herself into a human, I want to hug her but my feet can't move. I can't believe that she's the culprit behind those killings. My tears fallen from my cheeks same as her. I asked her why she do it then she answered me that it's not her, it's the demon inside of her. I told her that I will help her escape then she smiled at me, she asked me if I saw her grandma, suddenly a sadness form in my face, I don't know how to say the truth on her. However she must know the truth, I told her that her grandma is already dead.
Then she burst into tears and anger, she transformed into Aswang. Suddenly she cried so loud that attracts the attention of many men roaming around the forest. She look at me last time then she grab a sharp pointed wood, at last she smiled at me then struck the pointed wood into her heart. I immediately catch her, she told me that her life is nothing without her grandma that's why she need to follow her grandma. She's crying while saying those words, same as mine my tears didn't stop falling. I am trying to stop the blood however she hold my hand. She confess that she's also fell inlove on me however she can't love me back since she's Aswang. She's afraid that I'm gonna terrified once I knew that she's Aswang that's why she run away from me. I can't stop crying while holding her, at her last breath she said, " I love you". She died in my arms then people reached the place and found me holding Miah lifeless. After that I didn't know what happen next cause I'm already out of my mind.

Aswang Part 2
Part 1 of the story https://read.cash/@Codename_Chikakiku/aswang-part-1-7c841907
Early that morning I decide to roam around the barangay using my car, it's been years since I saw this kind of scenery such as mountains, seas, bucky roads, bamboos and many more, there's a happiness in my heart that I can't explain, I think this is what they called enjoyment. I want to discover more about this province, I'm glad that people there was so hospitable and kind since they wave their hands nor say good morning to me. If only I have no work in Manila then I would rather choose to live this kind of place. As I drove my car on the edge of barangay, I notice a lady busy carrying the woods in her shoulder. I drive fast then approach the lady and an instant my world got stop turning as I saw her eyes shining upon mine, her face is such elegant as a beauty queen and she's so beautiful on simple dress that she wear. She's so graceful even though she's carrying those woods. I think this is what they called love at first sight, I became freeze there for a moment until she break the silence and ask me what's the matter. I told her its nothing, I just seen an angel fallen from the sky in front of me.
I think she didn't get what I mean and she just nodded. She's not that interactive since she continued walking while carrying those woods. I run in front of her then offer a ride for her so that she won't suffer from back pain and also bring the woods at her house immediately. At first she's hesitating to accept my offer but I told her that i have no bad intentions, I just want to help her. At last, I make her accept my offer then I lift the woods to the trunk of my car then I open the door for her. I don't understand why I'm so gentleman right now, for almost decades of my existence this is the first time I made this thing to a lady. I also enter my car then start driving, I ask her where's the direction of the house but she said I just need to take a straight path, while we are on our way, there's no conversation happened through out the journey, I don't want to become feeling close that's why I didn't bother her at all. I saw a house nearby and assume that it was her house since we are already at the edge of barangay. I stopped the car then helped her to open the door.
I also carry the woods at the trunk but she's insisting that she can carry it. As a hard headed guy I also insist to carry those woods since I don't want to see my princess to suffer from heavy jobs. I carry the woods into her house then I fell uneasy, seems like the house is hiding something dark and there's a heavy atmosphere surrounds me. I don't mind what I feel and continue walking in their house, I put the woods on the ground. I became silent for a moment and I want to say something but I am thinking twice cause it might feel awkward. Hopefully, she told me to take a coffee as a compensation since I helped her. I entered inside their house and then I saw an old lady wearing a black clothes sitting on a chair. She explained to me, that it was her Lola and she's the one who care her. I give my hand to show some respect by pagmamano but she just stared at me badly.
There's something it her eyes that ready to devours me if I let my guard down, my instincts telling me to immediately leave the area but my heart can't. There's a part of me telling that I will never leave this lady, suddenly the lady told me that her Lola isn't that interactive since she's having mental illness and also it's rare that there are people visiting on their house. The lady us busy preparing my coffee just like a wife that serving her husband. I thought that the lady is snobber however I found her jolly and happy person when we start having conversation about different things, she said that she also want to visit Manila however she can't leave her Lola here since she's the only person that owns the obligation. I feel pity for her since, she can't fulfill her dreams due to certain circumstances. I also knew that her name is Miah, such a beautiful name. We are enjoying talking without noticing that it's getting dark, we're having a long conversation that I didn't notice it's nearly evening.
I need to take the path on the woods and it will be really hard since there's no post lights stands on the way. I asked permission to the lady and her Lola to leave since it's getting dark and there are rumors that there's a Aswang lurking on the dark ready to slaughter victims on sight. As I was leaving the house, I notice that that old woman keeps staring at me, I feel terrified and that hair throughout my body are raising, there's something dark inside the house and there are suspicions inside my mind. However, I became calm when i saw that Miah wave her hands. Seems like the plan in making her my wife starts here. I went back inside my car then start driving, it's very dark that's why my head lights are open, then I notice a open area while I'm taking the path, there's a wide view of the sea, I decide to park my car at the side of the road then get out from my car and look at the view of the sea.
Even though it's very dark, I can see those boats at the middle of the ocean, maybe they are catching fishes. I stay there for a moment while I'm sitting at the bushes and drinking Cola that I brought. In that area, I realize something in my life, I'm too much focus on working without knowing that I already forgot how to enjoy, my tears fall as I look around and see the calmness of nature. Now I understand my purpose, I understand where do I belong. Suddenly, my phone rings, it was my uncle asking me where I am. Then he said something that makes me terrified, he said that Aswang strikes again and the victim was a mere child, I immediately went inside my car then drove back to my uncles house. There are lots of people gathering in one area and there are sorrows and agony. I get out from my car then saw a child lying on the ground while his parents are crying in pain. I am also terrified and my feet can't move, why this things are happening on this place.
**Author's Message:**
I will cut the story here, maybe I'll finish it tomorrow and the revelation will comes out tomorrow, i hope you still with me and you follow what the story means. I know there's enlightenment in you knowing who's the culprit. Did you know who's Aswang? Thank you for reading this trashy story, sorry I'm not that good.
Aswang Part 1
I miss writing stories,I think it's been month since the last time I wrote horror stories. This is the kind of genres I love to write but for today we gonna explore one of the famous mythical creatures that we have here on Philippines, we are calling them as Aswang or in other country it was known as witches. Here on Philippines, aswang was very well known before Spanish Era. They are creatures that can mimick animal forms, its really hard to distinguish Aswang cause they look like ordinary people, usually they are living on mountains and provinces away from civilization, some of their race prefer to live in normal life while eating animal flesh while there are aswang that spread horror and kill normal people then eating their organs such as liver, heart and fleshes. Today I'm gonna told you a fictional story about this creatures, without further a do let's start this story.
___________________________________________
I am tired and exhausted on my daily routine, I think my whole life was dedicated to work and I already forgot myself. I didn't know what enjoyment means and I can say that my life is truly boring. One day my boss approached me and said that I need to give myself a space for enjoyment, at first I refuse the offer but he said that he will game a leave then I need to have vacation in any place that I want. My colleagues also convince me, maybe they witness how dedicated I am to work that I forgot other things in life. Currently, I'm on my car right now on the way to the place that I chosen. I already pack the things I need such as clothing, money, foods, sad to say i have no companion since I have no lady that can accompany me, how pity my life is, I'm so busy working without realizing that I already forgot how to get a girlfriend, still I am happy with the current situation I have, Am I?.
As usual I'm stuck on traffic, I'm waiting for other cars to move, to ease my boredom I decide to sound some music then I try to dance with the beat. After kilometers of driving, I finally feel that the road is free, I start driving a little bit fast and that's the time I feel like I enjoy the ride. As I was driving, I saw lots of wonderful scenery, such as sea, mountains, rice fields, and ponds. I realize that it's it's years since I saw this things, suddenly a smile on my face appeared. At that moment, I decide to travel more and wanna see more things. I look at my watch then I notice that it's already 3 in afternoon, I'm already near atnmy destination. I took the rocky road to the province that I chosen. At 4 in afternoon, I finally reached the remote area which there was a village. Lots of children approach at my incoming vehicle and they are amazed on it. I can see their joy and amusement on their eyes. When i went out from my vehicle, I saw a old man which is my uncle approached me.
I'm glad that there's someone I know in the place, he helped me lift my baggage then I follow him to his house, it's been years since I see this kind of scenery, I breath the fresh air from my surrounding and continue walking. My uncle is so talkative that he start asking lots of questions on me. I don't want to become rude that's why I'm answering all his questions and nodding everytime he's saying something. He gave me a room which I put all the things I brought. I told him that I need to take a nap since I feel exhausted due to long trip, he understand the situation that's why he let me rest. I didn't notice that I took a nap, when I look at my phone it's already 6 in the evening then I went out from the room, I saw a woman busy preparing foods on the table then she welcomed me, she's the wife of my uncle and I can see their sweetness while talking. I feel a little bit absurd since I'm a bitter person.
While we are taking the dinner, they are asking me if I have a fiancee already but I told them that I'm too much busy on work to deal with those kind of things, then my uncle remind me that I'm nearly on my 30s and I need to find a wife now. Suddenly, I realize something, I need to find a wife now cause I'm nearly out of my calendar. The problem is, there's no one got my heart nor I don't feel any love at first sight on women that I encounter for years. When we finished eating, my uncle decided to accompany me in roaming around the village and near barangay. He's having a motor that's why it's easier for us to move around since it's already evening. We decide to roam in near barangay then I saw lots of people outside their houses even though it's already evening, I saw amusement in their eyes since it's rare than Manila people visit their places.
We stopped at the store which there are couple of man talking then my uncle introduce me to them, I showed politeness in them then they are asking if I have wife already but I said none. Then they told me a story, that there's this lady living on the edge of the barangay together with her Lola, the man said that she's still single and had no husband that's why they start teasing me to her. I just get a long with them, I even drink tanduay with them though I'm not a fond of drinking alcohols, the thing that they said earlier caught my attention, I'm curious who this lady is and I want to know it. Maybe it's time to flirt and find a wife that I can love. While they are drinking, the topic have change into serious one, they say that there are cases of missing animals such as chickens, pigs, dogs and cats and some people saw those animals in forest with no organs inside of them, their blood are scattered and there are scratches all over their body, some rumors are there's a aswang that killing those animals and the whole barangay are worry about it.
