The Outdoors And More August 1, 2022 I never thought this community, The Outdoors & More existed until Galenkp posted something that caught my attention. This community recently had a contest, and one of the topics is hiking and trekking, the good and bad experiences. https://ecency.com/created/hive-139358 If you will invite me to go hiking or trekking, I would definitely go, unless it's Summer and it's too freaking hot outside, I would decline the invitation. I never…

The Fruit Of July **August 2, 2022** Productive. That's probably how I will define myself each month. Well, having a lot on my plate makes me want to consume more even if I don't want to. But I guess, I have no choice, and neither do you. In sickness and in health, offline and online, we all are grinding, lol. Apart from being productive, the crypto market in July was one of us too and we have seen how Bitcoin Cash regained its trend, pushing it upward. We are hoping that it…

Hustling In Sickness and In Health **August 3, 2022** Do you know what's the saddest part of adulthood and being a provider? It's when you still need to grind even if you are sick. And we have this weekly schedule to hustle each day for the whole week, lol. *Image credit to PVM* Work situations here abroad aren't the same as in my country where I can pass a sick leave when I don't feel well or if I just want to take an absence. Here, the hustling will continue in sickness…

My Ideal Roundtrip Vacation **August 4, 2022** These recent days have been busy ones and I felt like a busy bee juggling from one place to another, stocking more honey in my beehive, and looking for more flowers to be sucked into. It seems like I've been stocking resources in preparation for the cold season, even if those resources won't really go to me. The saddest part of being an adult. While facing the mirror the other day, I was looking at my sad-looking face and I…

Some Cravings In A Melancholic Day **August 5, 2022** Hustling in sickness and in health because we have given no choice but to grind continuously. I seldom get sick but it seems like my whole system is inflamed when it happens. Counting the number of times that I got a severe cough accompanied by inflamed tonsils, sinuses, and body pain, this is only the second. The last I remember was during the winter season in 2020 if I'm not mistaken.…

Overwhelming Stuff On My Plate **August 6, 2022** *Image from Unsplash by* *Malicki M Beser* https://unsplash.com/photos/a2rw1MQXAe4 What's upsetting to someone who has a blogging goal is when she gets sick and her mind seems to want to rest as well and doesn't want to work. It's been my daily routine to write an article each day before the day ends. But now that I am not well yet, I couldn't seem to collect my thoughts to form them into one content as they seem to be…

Getting Better **August 7, 2022** Being sick for a week wasn't easy as it made me feel uncomfortable and weary and affected my daily life activities. Yet, with my determination to get better as soon as possible, I took my medication religiously. I may not be fully recovered yet, but I'mgetting better. Sunday, my holiday, gave me more resting hours and I only spent the whole morning lying on my bed. My body clock seems to have been accustomed to waking up at 9 or 10 in the…

Little Dubai Of Hong Kong **August 8, 2022** It was the Easter holiday when my friend mentioned the little Dubai of Hong Kong and it sounds new to my ears as I never heard about it before. Hong Kong truly is a great escape with different spots that resemble tourist destinations in other parts of the world. I've been to what they consider the Middle East, Hawaii, Maldives, Venice, and other beautiful spots of Hong Kong. When I heard and saw the video about this little Dubai,…

Wandering Mind **August 9, 2022** Long hours had passed, but my mind seemed to wander in the vast. I couldn't seem to figure out what I am feeling, or probably I just need some resting. But to stop my mind from wandering I couldn't do, as it will continue to travel without further ado. I hope I could look what's into it, to give me a hint even just a bit. I hope we could stop my mind from thinking when I'm awake, but that's only possible as I fall asleep. One, two, three…

Health Realizations **August 10, 2022** We all are, at some points feeling like resting is not in our system due to unending responsibilities and goals we want to achieve. It's been a week since my health hasn't fully recovered yet, and it's the first time this has happened. Probably due to overworking my body as I often push myself to the limit to the point that my health is being compromised. I've been too harsh on myself and often disregard its wellness due to…

Torn Between Two Paths **August 11, 2022** The middle of August is fast approaching as time flies too fast. In these recent days, there were a lot of things happening online and offline that made my body and mind weary and unstable. I've been through a lot of health realizations but I seem too stubborn not to learn my lessons. Indeed, it's only when we get sick we value our health. Just like, only when we fall do we learn to fly. The recent struggles made me fall, but here I…

Should We All Be Tech-Savvy? **August 12, 2022** Technology truly grows rapidly and inevitably and has already laid an impact on society. Nowadays, it seems that we can't live without it as it plays an important role in our lives. From the moment we wake up until we step out of the house, to our workplace, and go back home, technology has been part of daily life. Are there people who are yet tech-savvy? Do we all need to become one to be part of this modern world? While…

The Fast Renewal & Saturday Walk **August 13, 2022** Do you know what's another perk of living in a fast-growing country? Everything is digital and high-tech that makes transactions faster and easier. This gives convenience to our daily lives as well. We don't need to rush for things, but rather wait for the right time. We don't need to manually process transactions as digital machines will do the work. It was more than four years ago when I created my Hong Kong ID and a few…

Cutting My Best Asset **August 14, 2022** *If there is one thing that I want to keep, that is my long hair. It gives me confidence and carefree. I feel like it's my best asset and I feel comfortable in it.* I remembered someone who became part of my life in the past mentioned that the first part of a lady he looks at is her hair. I wondered why. As he said, he likes women with beautiful hair. If he's walking in the street and encounters a lady, either she is facing back or…

Stop Giving More Time To The Less Important Stuff **August 15, 2022** ***"A person with a cluttered mind has a cluttered space."*** *Do you believe in that? I wonder how you organize your things. How often do you clean your room? What about your shoes? Do you care about your phone? Do you maintain cleanliness in your house?* Questions that I also need to ask myself. *Am I organized or cluttered?* I can't deny the fact that I tend to clutter my stuff due to a lack of time as…

Some Of My Weaknesses And Strengths **August 16, 2022** It is given that humans have weaknesses and strengths because we aren't if we have none. Oftentimes those weaknesses become a hindrance to achieving our goals in life. Sometimes, other people will take advantage of them for selfish reasons. While some will take their weaknesses to pull out some strengths as they don't want to surrender against battles of life. And that's when weaknesses become positive. As much as I…

Death Sentiment Of A Sole Provider **August 17, 2022** Death is untimely, it is inevitable, and regardless of what cautions we take to avoid it, it will come in no time unexpectedly. Some forms of death are acceptable though when they happened naturally or due to age or known sickness. Those that we expect and so preparations and acceptance are bound to happen. However, if death happens by accident, can it be accepted? Every time I hear news about death, fears and worries…

Was It A Good or Bad Decision? **August 18, 2022** *Why do we always end up making the wrong decision even if we feel like we have done the right one?* I feel inconsistent and unstable recently that I doubted myself, my decisions and all. Probably because the aftermath of every situation doesn't coincide with what I wanted to happen. It seems like things always end up in the wrong position. When I feel like I am doing the right one, it seems to end in the wrong spot. So…

Do It Once It Buzz!! **August 19, 2022** Being consistent is truly a difficult thing to achieve because we tend to be overwhelmed by the thought of the outcome rather than focusing on the difficult process. The excitement when expecting something better is often a distraction as we tend to be out of focus. In my entire stay in this blogging world, I guess the only thing that I am consistent at is posting an article a day here on read.cash. And that's the only consistency I…

My Travel Goals For The Start Of Autumn Season **August 20, 2022** The month of August is passing too fast. We are about to approach the last quarter of it, then the **"Ber"** month will come. Soon, we would hear jolly to nostalgic Christmas music again, I bet it will start in the Philippines, lol. Those sleigh bell ringing, choir singing, festive feeling, and of course, you can't take Jose Marie Chan out of the picture. He's almost out actually 🤣. Filipinos know this for…

Sunday Happenings And The Missing Rusty **August 21, 2022** Here comes another Sunday, my only day for relaxation. Initially, I planned to go to Central Hong Kong to visit the world's longest outdoor escalator as I have seen it online and was curious about it. I thought it would be perfect for my travel blog. But due to laziness, I just slacked the whole morning in my bed. Don't blame me, I woke up late actually because I slept past midnight last night for some reason. I…

Setting SMARTer Goals This Time **August 22, 2022** A blissful Monday everyone! It's a busy day as always and once this day falls, everyone at work would probably want to immediately jump to the weekend. I do think like that at busy times and always hope for a statutory holiday. Speaking of which, I checked it online with the hope of seeing a holiday this August, but to no avail. However, there is one in September, and that's the Mid-Autumn Festival that everyone is…

Sky's The Limit At Sky100 **August 23, 2022** Rich, well-developed, fast-growing, full of skyscrapers and high-rise buildings, the center of finance, trade, commerce, and home of the world's billionaires, that's the iconic description of Hong Kong. Anyone would definitely want to visit the country, not just to see skyscrapers, but to experience Chinese culture and traditions. And don't forget the amazing landscapes of nature outside HK cities. It's not just a place of…

Humpday Wednesday **August 24, 2022** Happy humpday readcashers! Is it even happy? I woke up in the morning seeing the sky too cloudy and the sun seemed hesitant to come out behind those thick clouds. There's news from my boss that a typhoon is coming. My country is currently experiencing stormy days and the typhoon would probably come here after leaving the Philippines premise. This will be the second typhoon this month if it landfall here. More than a week ago, HK suffered…

Young Memories Flowing Under A Storm **August 25, 2022** Happy Thursday everyone. As I have posted yesterday, there was a typhoon coming to Hong Kong so we readied beforehand. We bought food supplies and other necessary things at home as we don't know if the typhoon will stay longer or not. The weather here is always unpredictable anyway. Sometimes typhoon signal #3 seems like #8, and typhoon signal #8 seems like #3 😅. There was a little rain yesterday but the wind started…

Is One Not Enough? **August 26, 2022** Recently, I feel too exhausted as I keep stuffing a lot into my plate, juggling from one platform to another while doing my job in the real world. Sometimes I'll ask myself, "*is one not enough?*" Undeniably, we always wanted more when we can only have one. The more opportunities, the better. And as the adage goes, *the more the merrier.* Even the viand on our plate, we want more than one, right? Who doesn't want to eat more than one…

The Connected Sleep Paralysis **August 27, 2022** *A great pressure loaded on my chest. I couldn't move, I couldn't shout. I seemed wrapped in the chair. A blurry dark-figured woman appeared in my sight. I couldn't see her face. Her long dark hair was obscuring it. I knew whose figure it was. I couldn't talk. I couldn't move. I couldn't ask for help. She wasn't moving either and just standing in front of me. "What is she thinking? Why is she not talking? Am I hallucinating?…

A Weekend Walk At Central and Some Surprises **August 28, 2022** Happy Sunday everyone! Let's welcome the day with positivity, because why not it's my holiday! But before I start my day, let me share with you my OOTD, I so love it! It's been a few months now that I've been just slacking in my bed during my holidays. And after having lunch, I would just go to my favorite park until night. It's too mundane and I always yearn for going on a trip. Hiking is impossible though…

Unconcealable Character **August 29, 2022** One thing that I could get when reading articles, aside from life stories of different individuals, is the knowledge and thoughts to ponder. I came across this article the other by @Olasquare saying, Give Me Character, Please. Later on the same day, I stumbled upon @ARTicLEE's post about Beautiful On The Outside. Did they share the same thoughts on that day? They all tackled beauty and character.…

Live A Life You Will Remember **August 30, 2022** ***Have you ever thought about how to live your life that you will remember? How to live fully and happily despite the challenges?*** Looking back at the past, I realized that my happy days are lesser and setbacks are more. These moments filled my mind, the laughter and tears, success and failures, ups and downs, and they will continue as long as my body systems are still functioning well. But what if my mind deteriorates and…
