So basically it's raining again in our place, but today we don't have electricity. Hopefully the electricity will immediately resume, as for sure our home will be covered by darkness tonight, as we don't have any emergency lights to use.

I was actually doing my laundry when the rain poured, but since my sons sleep got interrupted by the sounds of the heavy rains and thunderstorms, I had no choice but to stop washing. I accompany and carry my son as he was crying because he was too scared, as usual.

And now that he have already calm down I let him play then I decided to answer this prompt before the battery of my phone get drained. I am not sure if the electricity will immediately resume today. Anyway I just saw this journal prompt in Pinterest.

So let's gooo!

Use ten (10) words to describe yourself

Before I start I would like to remind you that this is just basically my own description about myself and so if you think the word didn't suit on how the way you knew me from this platform, I'm sorry to disappoint you, charot. Lol

1. Independent

2. Introvert

3. Loyal

4. Soft hearted/ kind

5. Giver

6. Ambitious

7. Impatient

8. Competitive

9. Hard-working

10. Selfless

Honestly when I was 1-10 year's old I'm very dependent to my mom, well I think it was normal as I am still young. But after my mom got sick and she needs to stay at the hospital until she fully recover as she undergone surgery, I need to be independent. She stayed for almost two months or more in the hospital, and so as the eldest daughter of my parents I stand as the youngest guardian of my siblings at the age of eleven (11). My independency started at this age and poverty introduce me the real world of adulthood. It's quite hard but atleast I learned a lot and because of that I learned to live independent.

Do you make decisions with your head or heart?

Well, some say's when it comes to a decision making you should always use your head, be smart enough as everything in my future was depend on my hands and it was also called practicality. Which means we should not allow our emotions to do the decision for us to succeed. Well honestly they are right, but I would like to say that it was also depends on what for the decision to be made. Because what if it is about your happiness? Will you still choose your head?

However I would be honest here. I usually use my heart to make the decision. I always do what makes me happy.

Anyway I know we all have different preferences and so I'll respect you if you says you always use your head when you make a decision.

What is your dream job?

My dream job is to be a business owner. I don't need to work to someone as I am the boss of my own business.

But anyway, my dream job is actually being a stewardess, but unfortunately my height and beauty isn't qualified for that position lol.

What qualities do you value in a friend?

Loyalty

I think I don't need to say any further explanation about this quality as for sure each one of us wants to have a Loyal friend(s). But nowadays they are rare.

Who do you admire the most and why?

My parents

They are the first two persons who showed me true love and acceptance. No judgement and hates. Their love for each other also inspires me as through thick and thin they are always together. Helping and lifting each other.

What inspires you?

My son and the Almighty God

My son is the reason why I stay alive, he was my inspiration in everything. While God is also my inspiration and motivation, as He never leaves me specially at my darkest hour.

However I would also like to say that my small progress is also my inspiration and my friends who never gets tired of supporting me.

What is your favourite physical feature?

Well honestly I don't have any favourite physical features. What's important to me is my health and I am healthy. I don't care about abs and masculinity, charot, hahaha

How have you changed in the last five (5) years?

I don't think I have changed any?

Oh yeah! My life has changed from being single into Motherhood, lol. I become more mature in life because of my responsibilities.

How do you manage stress?

Sleeping and crying

Well this is how I manage my stress. I usually cry and sleep to skip from the reality for awhile. After I woke up, I'm again okay and have enough energy to think about how am I gonna find a solution for the cause of my stress.

Edit:

I started writing this article at around 13:15 this afternoon. That was the time our electricity was cut after the heavy rains poured. Then after I answered ten questions, I decided to stop writing to finish my laundry.

At around 15:30 PM, the electricity come back and so I decided to charge my phone while I am still doing my laundry.

I become too busy accompanying my son after I finish our laundry. His having some tantrums today, as I think his growing teeth makes his gums in pain and so he was too irritable.

Tonight I was too tired. I did read some articles and then I didn't notice while reading I feel asleep. When I woke up it was already 22:45 and so I quickly open my draft and finish my unfinished tasks. Since I have already answered ten questions from this prompt before I continue my laundry I only smart read my answers and I started editing my thumbnail photo in Canva.

Anyway this is all for today and thank you for reading.
