My article was translated without my permission! (Updated)
[UPDATE] It was removed by readcash. Thank God!!!! I hope no one do this to other writers. Let's respect the authors here. We are all giving time and effort in writing. Be fair, reasonable and respectable enough to do your part. I hope he learns from this.
@Imdadul.hoque reached out and apologized. I accepted his apology.
So this guy thought it would be cool to translate the article I wrote without my permission. He even got the nerve to mention me.
I didn't want it to be translated. If I do, I would have posted an announcement to translate my article.
This is pure plagiarism and I feel so betrayed. I have been very honest and fair to all users here.
But using my work that I put effort into and posting it in a translated version, is one thing I haven't considered in any of my articles.
Please @Imdadul.hoque , I don't appreciate it. Delete it or I will have to report this as plagiarism. This is insulting although you mentioned me in your fake content, I still don't like it. I didn't give you any permission to do that. You have insulted my effort and insulted me as a writer.
I tried to be civil and considerate to everyone. I am certain I earn some respect here. Respect me, or we handle this disgracefully?
Am I mad? YES, I AM MAD!!! Did you even think how much time and effort I put into writing that simple article? And you just copied it without any hesitation!!!!
I demand it to be removed immediately!!!!

IS IT NOT CLEAR IN MY ARTICLE TO NOT COPY OTHER ARTICLES AND NOT DO PLAGIARISM!!! DID YOU EVEN READ THE ARTICLE YOU COPIED???! My gosh, @Imdadul.hoque !!!! Get your head straight! Delete that!!!!!!!!!!!! 😡😡😡😡
I will lift this up to readcash management. And if any of you think I deserve respect and what he did is awful, you can also report his article for me. Thanks!
I don't want to think our thoughts and efforts are unsafe here. I still want to believe users still value respect for each writer here. Spam comments, I can take that. I haven't moved any comments in spam. Constructive criticisms, I also can take that. But plagiarising my content is something I can't take.
I feel so awful. It's okay if he asked me and I gave him permission. But translating it minutes or an hour after I publish my article is disrespecting. I am greatly offended by his actions. I can't even believe he mentioned me in the article like it will make his action valid! It irritates me even more.
How to get started at Readcash...
ENGLISH|TAGALOG https://read.cash/@Jdine/how-to-get-started-at-readcash-153e0c2d https://read.cash/@Jdine/how-to-get-started-at-readcash-tagalog-3cd01d70
This is just a simple guide for newbies who don't have ideas where to start with all the information shared to them by their invitee...
*This is just purely based on experience and observations. I hope this guide can help you.*
Before going any further, I would like to welcome you to read.cash. Here, you can earn by sharing your thoughts and interests by means of writing an article. Providing a good quality article is essential here in readcash but don't let that intimidate you. 😊 What we're trying to say is an article that's interesting to others as much as it is to you. 😊 You can basically write about any thoughts as long as it doesn't go against the site rules. I know you read the rules when you signed up. 😊
**So, after signing up, what do you do?**
💟 I suggest you first create an introductory post and submit it to the "introduce yourself" community. You can do that by joining the community and hitting "*write a full article*" or "*submit your article*". You can also just plainly write an introductory article and hit " *submit to communities*" and select the community I just mentioned. Be sure that you already joined the community before submitting it. 😊 https://read.cash/c/introduce-yourself-c32c
💟I assume your invitee made a post to welcome you. (*cause that what I do to my invites and their invites as well ahaha*), if that's the case, do your best to reply to every comment that post receives. This way, it will make the users think you are really into this. That you are really looking forward to sharing your thoughts and making new friends and supporters. Remember, people support good thoughtful writers, so since you're new and still need to (somewhat) prove your writing skills, might as well be the "thoughtful" part first. Be sincere though. Many lose their supporters because of insincerity and inconsistency. 😊
💟Respond to comments that you receive to your introductory. Same thing with replying to the comments your invitee. This makes the audience know that you appreciate their presence and efforts. 😊
💟Start reading other articles. You will learn more about how the platform works and what the people are interested in by reading articles. By this, you can find the same interests with others and will probably be the start to make ideas for your future articles.
💟Start writing articles. There are also many posts about how and what to write for an article. Later I will give you links that (hopefully) you will be able to get tips from.
💟Make friends in doing comments. Making friends is one way to earn supporters. We encourage being true, though. We encourage genuine conversations and not just 'Subscribe to me too.." We encourage real interactions. This will help you gain supporters/subscribers and make them stay.
💟Subscribe to writers that you like and be sincere and kind always. Need I say more about this? 😊
**WHAT YOU DON'T WANT TO DO IN READCASH.**
❌ Don't post plagiarism in any form. Photos, texts, comments, articles, anything... Readcash detects it and users will know it. Do not copy-paste texts, copy photos, copy-paste comments, and do not copy other's works! We highly discourage these practices.
❌Avoid spamming the platform. This means making irrelevant comments to articles and posting low-quality articles. Irrelevant comments include "wow nice very good", " subscribed to you subcribe back please," Nice article please subscribe back," and similar comments. This shows that you weren't really interested in the article and it's an insult to the writer who put effort and time to create a worthy article. I guess you can ask them to check your articles.sometimes, but doing this every article you read and doing this every time will lead to hating the audience instead. Unless you have the same mindset. Just gaining subscribers and not creating good quality content, then you both are on the same track. A track that Readcash will eventually get rid of because it is soam and it is cheating and IT IS UNFAIR.
❌Don't join upvoting groups. Okay, what does this mean? Upvoting groups doesn't mean that you join a group chat or anything. Upvoting group means, "upvote me, I'll upvote you". And with this upvote we mean thumbs up. Upvoting tips don't get you in any trouble. Thumbs up do. Why? Because thumbs up is also a basis I random rewarder, so if you ask people to upvote (thumbs up) you in exchange of you giving them thumbs up too is considered cheating as per readcash. I don't exactly know how they validate every upvote(thumbs up) but they do validate them to differentiate real genuine upvotes (thumbs up) than upvoting group actions. Again, you don't have to literally be in a group. When you upvote a writer and that writer upvotes you, the system detects the intervals, I guess. And it will show that you both are doing upvotes for each other for the sake of it. And you might get a penalty from fewer points to no points for a period of time, depending.on your violation. Of course, it still depends on the article. I really am not sure how they validate. haha However, UPVOTING using TIPS is a different story. They will not penalize you for this. Why? Upvoting with tips involves your own funds in your wallet. A percentage goes to readcash for such actions. So if you give tips to one another, haha you're basically giving readcash some of the tips. Percentage, remember. And this is actually hard to abuse. Not to mention, you use your own funds (earned or deposited) by doing upvote tipping and not readcash points or funds. So why would they resist (stop) you from handling your own funds? 😊 So remember, upvoting group means thumbs up not tipping. thumbs up. also means liking articles and comments... AND COMMENTS! please remember that. 😊
❌avoid inviting someone in your household using the same wifi, phone data, or anything that you share the same IP address. It will be considered as your other account and you will have to split with the points both accounts might get. And if the accounts upvote (thumbs up) or comment with each other, automatically, that's tagged as an upvoting group. say hello to penalty. haha, I'm not so sure with situations like one user uses friend's mobile data/wifi to log in at some point even after signing up, one user used public wifi to login making it vulnerable to the same IP to other strangers, and user used second newly bought handphone that has readcash user owner. I will try to ask readcash about it, though. I also got curious. On the safer side, just use your own wifi and don't invite anyone that uses the same IP address for now. Although I think I read something like it's okay to have at least 4 accounts in the same IP. I will try to clear this out to readcash. I hope he notices my email hahaha.
❌Don't be rude, insulting (directly or indirectly), or any other forms of such bad behavior. Remember, we need to be ourselves but we need to be considerate as well... We are working as a team here, it's not just about your opinions. It's not about just your beliefs. It's not just about yourself. We need each other to make achieve our goals and this platform's goals. Respect each other's opinions and views and always be as civil as possible. This does not mean you can't have fun. Have fun but also know your limits. 😊
*That's all I can think of right now. haha. I will update as soon as I remember/ have additional suggestions. 😊*

Do you want to get to know me more? 😉
I'm wondering how many people want to get to know me more. Not to the degree that they want to date me or anything like that haha. I'm just thinking if anybody is really curious about who i am in real life.
With this thought that have been playing in my mind since this morning (it's 11:31 at night here), I figured, I should do an "ask me anything" article for my supporters. 😅 Just a heads up, I still want my privacy and I'm not so crazy to publish private informations like my address, social security number, social media accounts, or any other sorts haha. I'm also having second thoughts on revealing my real name so pls just settle with JDINE for now. hahaha
***You can ask me my opinions, my favorites, my likes and dislikes, anything just not too personal, though haha...***
*If I want my personal information publishes I should have made an article containing all my personal/private informations. haha So be mild and fun.*
I was actually having second thoughts about this post... I might disgrace myself and realize that no one really want to know me but I'll give it a shot.. Who knows hahah...
I will also update this article with the questions asked, who asked them and my answer to the questions...
This is just a test for me and will only run until tomorrow. hahahaha...
Let's see who wants to know more about me and what people want to know. 😉💜
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS:
**❓*****Question***: **Let's do this haha! How do you manage your time for your loved one and your part-time jobs? -** @gerl
***💜*** *I was working full time before the pandemic, but then eventually we got stop from working because of the situation. I'm still not back at work, though... So the time I have now is for my family and readcash. I write articles mostly at night when my child is sleeping or at day time when he's playing... I sometimes ask him to behave cause mahal needs to write. (he calls me mahal cause that's what he hear from his dad haha). He obeys but of course as a kid, he will interrupt me. haha. I always make it a point that I make him feel that family is always the toppriority. So when he or his dad needs me, I stop immediately in writing and give them my fullattention.*
*articles can wait, replies can wait, my supporters can wait and will understand but my family, I try my best not to make them wait... 😊😊😊*

I don't have telegram, don't have twitter, don't have instragram,.dont have a youtube channel... I had Friendster account hahahhahahahaha.... facebook yes I'm not ready to reveal it yet hehe.. 😊*
❓***Question***:**Why did you join rc?😁 -** @Calysta
*💜 Oh... at first it because it was said this is an earning site. But when I realized what the platform really offers, it's about sharing my thoughts and people appreciating it. I love how people react to my thoughts and write-ups. I began to love the platform for all the opportunities it gives. Of course, there will still be that earning part, I don't want to sound hypocrite haha. But the supporters made it more motivating to continue.. 💜😊*
**❓how young are you po? 😂 And what at are your interests and hobbies? 🤗 -** @bbang
*💜I am 18 years old few (or maybe many) years ago.. 😅🤣😂 I play guitar... I like to sing, I haven't composed any song though. 😅 I'm not into sports. But I know how to play volleyball and chess... I swim sometimes but I don't have courage to swim in very deep water. 😅🤣😂 I like to draw but that kind of art does not really want me hanging around haha. I tried to be a photographer but almost every shot I take is almost unrecognizable. Many times it's blurry. haha... I like watching movies, mostly thriller/horror and comedy romance... I also like action but not everytime. there's a right mood for that.*
*I can say that I only realized how I like writing so much until I joined readcash haha. I write diaries/journals when I was a teen but forgot about it when I was in college and while I started working and I never realized how I missed it so much haha.. 😆*
**❓I have a question about your marriage.. Your marriage was love or arranged??? -** @Hiyamoni123

Evening photography
I just want to share my husband's photography. He likes to photograph and I think he's good at it.
Nighttime is one of my favorite parts of the day, to be honest. It's calm and quiet. I also like the breeze at night.
I like how the moon reflected color blue on the sand. I think it is what carried the whole photo. 😅
This was during the first couple of weeks of lockdown. This road is usually busy street. Buses, cars, and other kinds of transportation used to pass by. It looks like it's an apocalypse scene from a movie. There are police cars in the middle of the highway. I also like how the streetlights differ in color. 😊
These are just two photos but I'm looking forward to more. And I hope you like it too.. 😊
***Don't forget to like, comment, subscribe, and upvote.***
Much Love,

I don't even know what title to put...
What will you do if you found out that the one you love might not be the one for you? When you're not even sure if that person will be 'the one' till the end or 'the one' you're waiting for? How will you feel with the uncertainties.
I have recorded another song about this. It's in tagalog though. 🤩 It's originally by Moira and December Avenue. This is a duet. I don't know the guy, he's a user from wesing app. 😅

How to attract more subscribers and make them stay
We all want to have subscribers. Subscribers are supporters that play a big role in this platform. They are like a circle of friends that you hang out with every article you publish. Having many subscribers also gives you more chances of earning points. That's why many users play tricks to gain a large number of subscribers. Some (tactics) are good, some are bad and really annoying.
When a user subscribed to you, they will receive notifications whenever you publish a new article. That way, they can read it and comment and/or upvote without having to reach for your name or even if your article hasn't reached the homepage yet.
But how do we gain more subscribers? (The right way)
**🔶Write interesting articles.**
This is spread all over the site. This is the main rule or factor in having subscribers. People will start subscribing to you when they think your articles are interesting enough for them to want to get notified every time you publish a new article. Many users ask subscription in return of their own subscription but do you think they will remain as your subscribers? No. No one wants to be notified of useless posts. No one wants to have flooded notification with people they really don't support. They will unsubscribe you eventually. So why not make an interesting article that people support.
**🔶Be kind to all.**
Being kind goes a long way. Be kind not only to your supporters but also to new readers and audience. Be kind not because you want to act good to have their support. Be kind because we are all making efforts and we all started from being a newbie. Be kind because you will never be where you are without your supporters.
**🔶Be consistent.**
Being consistent in doing good is also a key to earn subscribers and making them stay. Remember, subscribers can be your supporter today but may not be tomorrow. But when people see your consistency in delivering quality content, they will support you all the way.
**🔶Respect.**
This is connected to being kind, actually. Always respect every user, respect the rules, and respect the fairness for everybody. No one wants to follow rude, pervert, and insensitive authors. No matter how good they are in writing, right? Accept constructive criticisms and make it as a motivation.
**🔶Be professional and decent.**
Not only in interacting with other people but also with creating content. But, don't get me wrong, this does not mean you can't be funny and silly. But at least make it something that you are not making a fool out of yourself and acting like someone that knows no boundaries. If you know what I mean. hehe
**🔶Be interactive.**
Whether it's through an article or in comments. You can also do giveaways (good quality giveaways) if you're capable. It makes you look fun and interesting. But never give false hopes to participants... Be active in writing, replying, and commenting. This way they will be familiar with your name and be more interested in you.
**🔶Be contented and grateful**
Sometimes when people see you are grateful and contented to what your supporters can give you, they are more willing to support you. Always be grateful and let them know how grateful you are. We all want to be acknowledged whether being a writer or a supporter.
We all want supporters and it's our job to maintain them. And help each other to achieve what we want to achieve. And gaining them the good way is fairer and more fulfilling than just asking for subscriptions. And to be honest, I find it kinda annoying and insulting to be just asked because we are working our butts off for genuine supporters. It is not bad to ask for subscribers but at least give them good reasons to. 😊
Pain Changes People
Pain changes you in either a good or bad. Pain is as inevitable as change is. We cannot stop it. We cannot escape from its facts. It is as clear as we can imagine.
Having so much emotional pain is as hurting as physical pain. You may also see it's effect physically.
Many people, or should I say, almost everyone change because of this. Some change for the better while some change to be the worst.
It depends on the intensity and cause of pain they feel and, well, of course, it depends on the individual's personality.
There are so many cases and examples of such stories wherein people change because of their experiences.
One example is when a person suffered so much pain in break up because of cheating, that person sometimes begins to have trust issues, becomes more liberated, begins to question the significance of love, becomes a player, and whatnot. While others simply just become more hopeful in love and trust and begin to be more trusting or whatever they think is best for their future relationship.
As I've said, changes depend on the person and/or the pain they felt. There will always be different situations and there will always be different reactions and outcome to every situation.
The mind plays a big part in changing. Many times, you cannot control what your mind tells your heart. You cannot control how your body responds to what you think.
No matter what, always think of positivity, or at least try, because as time goes by, you'll eventually realize that there is always positivity in every experience we encounter. 💜

BCH payment for a Mountain Bike
How would buying a mountain bike using BCH sound for you? Bikes are essential nowadays here in our town because of the current situation-pandemic.
If you love MTBs (mountain bikes) and BCH, this thought will be perfect. You buy a bike and you use your BCH for payment and vice versa. This way we can spread awareness to BCH and it's importance.
My friend is a BCH user and he is selling mountain bikes as his business. I bought one of the bikes he's selling using BCH as mode of payment. The thought gave him the idea to accept BCH as one of the modes of payment for his bikeshop.
He claims he's also new in cryptocurrency and would want to know more about it on his free time. I wish I can tell him more about BCH but I, myself is also new.

Allergy Attack
The itchiness woke me earlier. My hands are very itchy and my eyes feel swollen. My body is covered with rashes. Even my ears and scalp feel itchy.
I thought of what I ate last night. It's nothing unusual. I always eat that dish and I don't have an allergy to that food. I am thus left wondering what triggered this attack.
I am also worried because I had a bad experience with an allergy attack before. My whole body turned violetish or maybe blueish at that time and I had a fever. I took medicine for days.
I don't want to experience that again. It's scary. I thought I was going to be admitted in a hospital.
Anyways, I'm thinking it's the crab paste I tasted yesterday afternoon. It was just a spoonful though. But I couldn't think of other food that might have triggered this.
I hate this feeling. It's itchy and it's hot. I feel warm. I don't have fever but I feel like the wind don't reach my skin. It's as if my skin is so thick that it's becoming numb.
Arghhhh...!! I've already took my antihistamine. My savior... I'm waiting for it's effect. Taking it makes me drowsy, so I'm going to sleep again and take a rest. Hopefully, this attack is gone when I wake up. Goodnight again!(although it's actually morning already hehe)
*It's amazing how this avatar really resembles me. She even has my dimples as well. Thanks to the app that made me an avatar*
Yay! Another Good News!
This day has been filled with good news for all of us, have you noticed? 😍
Another great notice is seen on top of the website!!
Many thanks again to sir @MarcDeMesel for your generosity and your trust in all of us! We will always be grateful for your kindness. You have made it more encouraging for us, writers, to do our best in delivering a worthy article on this platform.
Thanks to Readcash as well, as always, for creating such an incredible website where we can share our thoughts and for introducing BCH to many of us who are new in cryptocurrency. The goal to adopt and inaugurate the use of BCH to many users through this website has been a real success.
I have known cryptocurrency for a while but I haven't really had the chance to realize it's worth and awesomeness until I joined this site, although I admit I still got lots to learn about it (cryptocurrency).
Giving donations to ensure our efforts are recognized, unwraps a feeling that cannot be justified by words. And all we can say, and will always say, is thank you.
Big thanks to all writers as well, that publish excellent write-ups that made all donors give their trust and respect. 💜 I look forward to more exceptional articles to also ensure the donors that their donations are paid off. I'm sure that's what they're looking forward to as well.. 🤩
This has been a really great day for all. 💜
New decent giveaways, new great articles, new supporters, new sponsors and new friends... Tomorrow is another day for us to strive for the best. 💜 (oh, it's bedtime here but my psyche is still up) 😁
**BTW, those avatars are me. Hehe. It's kinda cute to see yourself as an avatar. I used an app to generate my face and make it as an avatar. Awesome, huh? hehe

'Just enjoy the show...'🎶
📢 This is just a test. This is not the commencement of the singing contest 🤣😂 (Whhaaattt??)
I decided to record one cover song to for the singing contest. But nope, heck no, this is not an entry 😅. Of course, it's not. And besides, I wouldn't be joining my own competition, that's silly. 🤣😂
I just want to give a sample entry for the contest that will be starting tomorrow. With sample, I mean an article, not the singing part. 😅🤣😂
Alright, here it is. My cover of the song "The show" by Lenka. (I couldn't say I gave justice for the song though)
I stopped recording cause I don't know the next part 😅 but who cares, this is just a sample 😁. For your entries you need to sing the whole song of your choice, by the way. 🤩
https://soundcloud.com/geraldine-almendarez/sounds-from-sunday-evening/s-nevLGbkxlCj?ref=clipboard
I picked this song because I think the title fits the event. And the line "JUST ENJOY THE SHOW" is the best part to describe what I want participants and audience to do and feel. Enjoy the show.
And also, I like the song and I think it is easy to sing 😂. That's what important, right? Easy to sing. 🤣
Anyways, I will be waiting for your entries tomorrow. I hope many users will join. 😆 The prizes aren't joking too. 😉
Spread the loveliness of music. Melt the heart of the lovers, make people dance, bring out the rocker inside of you, and have fun.
Sing you hearts out and be the FIRST ever READ.CASH Singing Author Idol...
Good luck to all of us 😍🤩💜🖤🤗☺
A sad story I read today (entry to @kat2x' first giveaway)
*Lost a good friend* https://read.cash/@kat2x/lost-a-good-friend-7e51bd08
I read this story just now. It may not be very amusing in the first few lines but I gave it a shot and I'm glad I did.
The story justifies the emotion. Losing a friend is really painful. Losing them in the sense of just moving to another town or country is already sad, how much more of losing them because they passed away.
I like how short the story is and straight to the point. It may not be the best I've read but I can say that it is still worth the time.
The story is sad but the good thing is, it isn't written intensely that it will make you cry. I like how simple it is.
The story btw is written by @kat2x . And this post is my reaction/opinion to her story.
This is actually an entry to her contest which you will read the details here:

****(Please read her giveaway article for more details about the contest. I might have missed some details)****
(okay I choose @Hanzell cause she's good at giving opinions, @Yen cause she's active 😆, and @salma24 cause she's friendly)
What I like about this giveaway is, although she is asking you to subscribe to her, she is also encouraging you to write. It may only be a reaction article but it is still a good practice to your writing. You don't have to think of topic and just write your opinion about her articles. It is a good way to practice and a chance to win. Hitting two birds in one stone, just like the saying says. ☺
Good luck to you @kat2x and good luck to participants.
Much Love,
Jdine 💜🖤
5000 views. Amazing!!
The red bell appeared again and I clicked it to see a new notification... Then this came to my surprise...!
5000 views to all my articles? Wow! Just wow.
I cannot really express the happiness knowing that my articles are being read or at least viewed by 5000 times already.
I have been on this platform for more than 2 months and this is a big achievement for me.
Having views of all my articles and 200+ subscribers are motivations for me to write more and host giveaways to give back all the love my supporters have given me. Especially now with this amount of views.
A great information to start the day. ☺ Thank you Readcash, once again... 🌈💜🖤🤗
I am just in awe with this one. It is indeed encouraging... ☺😊 And I hope to see the numbers rise in the future.. 🤗 Both views, subscribers, supporters and sponsors. 🤩
Thanks to all who supports, read and view my articles ☺😊
Self-Worth
It feels good to be productive. The feeling of self-worth is really overwhelming. The feeling that you know you did something to help others especially the people you love and yourself is very satisfying, in a sense that you become proud of yourself. Being proud of yourself is one factor that shows you love yourself. Which I think is one of the most important things in life.
It doesn't matter how small your achievement is, as long as you know you put effort and love in it. But of course, it's nice to achieve big goals as well. I guess, what I'm trying to point out is, it feels great either way.
Achieving one goal at a time will lead to a bigger thing eventually. Who knows where it leads us next? Who can say how little a goal is that you achieved? No one but yourself. No one can judge you how little the deeds are. It may seem small to other people but it can be something that can change a life for others, even yourself.
Take one step at a time and don't rush yourself. Feel the value of every phase of your goal. Focus on what you want, small and big, take the risk and start your progress.
Be productive and feel the loveliness of self-worth.

Search for the first READCASH SINGING AUTHOR IDOL https://read.cash/@Jdine/search-for-the-first-readcash-singing-author-idol-8d0e6732
Good luck everyone and God bless!!
Much love,
Jdine🖤💜
Search for the first READCASH SINGING AUTHOR IDOL! 😊🥳
Okay, so the birth month giveaway was a success. *(clap clap)* And again congratulations to our winners! I will be distributing the prizes after I post this article, hooorayyyy!!! 🥳🥳🥳
As I've been telling in my previous articles, I will be hosting a new contest! I was able to ask someone to sponsor this. *You know who you are... Thank you again for sponsoring!!*
In this contest, we will be searching for talents and skills of our dear users. 😊 We all know that music is also considered a universal language just like writing and photography. And also, giveaway articles are trending, may it be good in quality or not, it's still trending. So I thought, why not make this an opportunity to host another giveaway and let people share their talent in writing and singing. Just like what the saying says, "If you can't beat them, join them.." (I don't know who said these lines though)That's why I will host another giveaway that will bring out the best of every user that will join. "Join them" in a sense that I will be delivering a good quality giveaway instead. (Or so I hope)
So in this contest, we invite users who want to share their talent in singing!!! I know a lot of you are good singers! Or at least you think you are. 😊
***What??? A singing contest in a crypto-blogging site???***
>Yep! You read that perfectly! 😊 Singing in a crypto-blogging site, yes. Right. We will still encourage participants to write of course... 😊 They will have to write an article in which they explain why they picked the song and/or their thoughts about the song. No need to include thoughts about the contest. But hey, it will be an awesome feeling to know what you think about the contest too. 😊
***Are you a professional singer or vocal teacher at least? Do you have any background in the music industry? Who's going to judge, you?***
>Well... I would love to believe that I am a good singer. And that I have enough experience in the music industry... But the answer is, NO. Haha, 😂🤣 I don't think I am a good singer, but my parents, kids, and husband think I am as much as I do. 😂 But I will not be judging this. We will have the audience judge this contest. I will just be that "Fergie" in "The four" if you know what I mean. (Fergie being the host of the TV show The Four)
***So this contest will be just like " THE FOUR" where you compete for face to face until last one standing?***
>I wouldn't describe it like that. It will not be like that. But of course, you will technically compete with one another but not like a face-off.
**Let's go into the details for further understanding of the details.**
**What you should do:**
🎙💜****Record yourself singing**** your favorite song and **write an article about it** that explains why you picked the song and/or any thoughts about the song. It should **have at least 600 characters**** (*characters, not words, chillax).* ****Mention me in the article so I'll get notified.**** *Please do your best to make it well-written. You can use grammarly.com for editing the text. 😊*
(YOU CAN EITHER DO A COVER SONG OR SING AN ORIGINAL SONG YOU'VE WRITTEN)
(**character consists of letters,numbers,symbols,punctuation marks that you can type using keyboard. Emojis and whatnot are excluded)
🎙💜Join and Submit your article in "THE SINGING AUTHORS" community. This community will serve as our guide to the contest for now and after the contest, we hope this community to grow and show read.cash the other side of us which is singing. https://read.cash/c/the-singing-authors-94ec
🎙💜Send your entry's link in the comments section below so that I can include your entry in the list. 😊
That's basically what you need to do. 😊 Simple, right? 👍👍👍
***Can we send unlimited entries per participant for this contest?***
>No... 😊 Only 1 entry per participant. You might be needing to publish another singing article when you got picked for the next round. Save them for the next round. 😊
***Next round??? How many rounds do we have to battle in for the championship??***
That will be explained in the mechanics, I guess. But yes if you move to the next round, you will have to create another entry for that... Amazing, huh???? More chance to share your talent!!
HOW WILL THE CONTEST GO:
💜👑Every week (for two weeks), we will have our preliminary stage where people can submit their entries and at weekends (SATURDAY AND SUNDAY *PH TIME), people will vote for their favorite. Top 3 will advance for the next round. This is for two weeks so we can have 6 finalists.
💜👑 For the 3rd week, the 6 finalists from the preliminary round will have to send another entry, and again, at weekends (Saturday and Sunday PH TIME), people will vote for their favorite. And top 3 winners will win respective prizes.
💜👑Top 3 finalists will then have to compete with each other by sending their final entry and be voted by again, our valuable users. 💗😊
***So, How much are we talking about here with all these efforts?***
Efforts are priceless when you love what you do, isn't it? But as a reward for your participation, we will be rewarding... Drum rolls??? Dooodooodoooo... 🥁🥁🥁🥁
🌟🌠****GRAND CHAMPION**** will win **$15**
🌟🌠****1st Runner up**** will win **$10**
🌟🌠****2nd Runner up**** will win **$5**
🌟🌠****Consolation prizes**** ****for remaining 3 finalists**** will receive **$1 each**
🌟🌠****Remaining participants**** will have their **respective tips as well** (*amount to be defined)*
🌟🌠****Voters**** will receive tips of course *(amount to be defined)*
**🥳🥳AMAZING, ISN'T IT???? It wouldn't be named "READCASH FIRST SINGING AUTHOR IDOL" if it's not awesome!!! 🥳🥳**
***So grab your mic and practice cause this will be one heck of an event.***
***Yeahhhh!!!!! I will record now and submit it immediately!!!***
Wait wait wait...!! You can record and practice now, yes... But this event will start on Monday (AUGUST 24.2020) ...

My Brother's LEGO art
My brother is really awesome with working with his lego. He has drawers for the pieces and it's surprisingly organized. One drawer for white bricks, another drawer for other colors and shapes. He has this on the corner side of his room. He has been fond in playing Lego since he was a kid and he somewhat never stopped.
In this article I would like to share some of his designs he made by himself. Alone! Awesoooome!!! I think he even got an offer because of this.
Okayyy let's get into the photos.
Is that a pool? Yes it is!!! Look how he designed the exterior of it. And don't get me started with the interior..
This one's quite simple, eh? It's like a simple home in many has. 😊The detail is still superb. 💖 Let's see the inside of the house...
Comfy eating in that dining area.. 👍
Classy! I like how simple it is and also modern.. I like the little window.
Stairs look normal. Do I see pink bed??? ohhh Imma pick that for my room... 💗
I like how he made the tv and the cabinet. it looks real with the knobs haha
So detailed. Also has vanity area. Cool... Looks like a teen girl's room...
Why do I feel nature calling me here. So comfy haha. Look at that two faucets haha. So cuteee...
The way he designed all his works are so detailed you wouldn't realize how important one detail is to make it look real. He has a crazy imagination and focus.
I'm so proud of him. I remember he made a house out of cardboards. He is really awesome and an artist.
He also loves to draw. And he's good at it. He likes to write too. He's also good at it. He is one of a kind... He's a psychologist,BTW.
Did i already inform you how proud I am of him?? 💜💜💜💜💜
FOR THE PRIZES...
I will be distributing them later or tomorrow. 😊 please be patient with me. Thanks again for the participants....
Woke up with this 🤣😂
So my husband forcibly woke me up cause it's already 2pm and I need to eat my lunch. He cooked his famous *munggo with buto buto.* I like it cause he puts a bit of *sinigang mix .* Just a little bit to complement the taste and so that it won't taste very sour. Yummm. I wasn't able to take a picture, I ate it immediately without pause. Never realized how hungry I was whole sleeping haha.
He lets me sleep as much as possible but wakes me up if he thinks O needs to put food in my system. Sweet, huh? Hehe ****But this post isn't about him so let's move on****.
I went straight to Readcash (my current favorite site so far). And I was overwhelmed by the notification. It made me really happy. Some are comments on my articles, some are newly published articles from the people I subscribe to.
These are just a few of them. The first few notifications I opened in new tabs to read and reply. There are still more I need to read and reply to. 😊
I really feel glad to see these notifications! I feel pleased to see users encouraged to write because of the doubling of funds spent per day. I assume this is all because of that.
Let's use this as an opportunity to prove to the donors that they did the right choice and let us make them proud with the quality of contents we produce.
Oh by the way please be patient, I will be reading all and replying to everyone. 💜
Good day everyone, this is Jdine, signing in and starting her day now. 🖤💜🖤

How to come up with topics to write.
We sometimes have a hard time thinking of ideas on what to write. Sometimes we overthink of writing an article that makes us unstable in coming up with ideas. We are then left with a ***blank page full of deleted sentences***. And we are frequently ***stuck with the first part*** of our article and ***find it difficult to proceed.***
We read articles about how to write effective and about organizing your thoughts and topic ideas. But how do we really pick one topic?
If you're beginning to write, you may find it difficult to think of any. ***To be honest, there are many things to write about.*** Often, we hear people say, write about ***something you are passionate about****.* And that's true.
If you like ***music***, you can write about your ***favorite song***, why it inspires you, when and where you first listened it. You can also write about your ***favorite band***, ***singer*** or even ***genre***. If you are capable, you can ***write your own song***.
If you like ***photography***, ***share*** your photographs or ***tips*** on how to shoot in ***good angle***, ***lighting*** and ***what good devices to use***. You can even share your story ***how you become enthusiast in photography.***
Same to ***poems***, ***books***, ***fiction stories***, etc. You can write a poem or fiction stories, what genre you prefer, your ***favorite author***, ***favorite line in a book*** then explain why, etc.
If you still think you can't write anything in the things I suggested, write about your ***life experiences*** that you are willing to share.
You can also write about your ***thoughts on love and relationship***. Like ***how you want to be in love*** or ***how you feel being in love or hurt.***
***Make it interesting***. Make it like you are talking to your friend. Like you are just sharing it with someone you always share it to. ***Do this until you learn to write more deeply...***
Write about something you have ***enough knowledge*** and can back it up when people starts to engage in your article. But remember, you can also write about ***something that bothers you***. Something that you want answers from. But still back it up with a little so it will look interesting.
You can also choose to write topics that needs research. Those informative topics. Topics that needs basis like ***psychology***, ***myths***, and whatnot. This will need more effort but if done correctly, it's worth it.
Most common topic for new writers is life experience. This way ***you tell stories that you already have the idea of.*** ***Next thing you know, you are writing stories made by your imagination.***
Whatever the topic you choose, remember to ***make it interesting, engaging and inviting***. Making it ***intriguing*** sometimes helps too. ****And always make it original!****
These are just my opinions and suggestions. It's still up to you which you think is the best topic for you. But I still hope it helps. 😊
Much love
Jdine 🖤💜
How lucky are we???
I was off for a minute and this is what I see when I sign in! Tell me how lucky are we???
Are you not yet encouraged to write with that? It's really awesome! Readcash never fail to surprise us!!!!
Thank you readcash for this and thank you to all sponsors who made this possible.
I hope people use this as an encouragement to write quality articles instead and make the most out of it.
Thanks again mr. @MarcDeMesel , we know you are a big part of this change.
People, let's not make their effort and money put to waste. Let's at least make them feel it is all worth it by producing quality in this platform.
I, too, feel encouraged to wrute mote and share more of my thoughts to everyone.
Kudos to all writers who make this platform worth the pledge, kudos to sponsors who pledged and believed in the platform and writers, kudos to readcash that never failed to bring back the love users are giving.. 😊💖💖
Let's go and multiply the quality contents as well....!!!!
What I'm doing tonight...
I figured I needed time off from everything and need to relax while waiting for my husband so here I am sharing what I love doing aside from writing.
Practice too cause we will be having a singing contest in the near future. Oh no, I'm not joining but I'm hosting it.
Alright, listen at your own risk...
**[UPDATED]**
https://soundcloud.com/geraldine-almendarez/blow-your-mind-cover/s-94L7FDxBHmR?ref=clipboard
Imma blow your mind right here wahaha just kidding... I like this sing cause it's easy to sing and very upbeat hehe.
https://soundcloud.com/geraldine-almendarez/spoliarium-cover/s-gPjhcSnjEio?ref=clipboard
I love this song. It a song by Eraserheads. It's in Tagalog. People say that Eraserheads are like The Beatles in the Philippines because of their fame in the Philippines.
https://soundcloud.com/geraldine-almendarez/sounds-from-friday-evening/s-9xCEKAQTDkJ?ref=clipboard
This third song is actually a very sad song. The lyrics are sad. It's a song by Urbandub, a rock band in the Philippines. I love how sad it is. 😊
***Enjoy and if not, well, I don't think you have much choice but to move on haha.***
Much love
Jdine
Is online love real?
A relationship that started online- will it last? Is it real? Is it considered sincere?
Many are in doubt about the idea. How can one love when you haven't met the person yet? How can you know that it's a real love of you haven't even touched them? How can one knows or feels the genuineness of the feeling if you're not sure who the person is? how can you know the person if you haven't been with them?
But others believe in such a thing. Others believe what they're feeling and experiencing is real and as genuine as it is. They have no doubt about that. They feel the same way as they felt in their previous relationships. Maybe even more extreme.
Being in love is such a great feeling. You are really not sure either way though, to be honest. There will always be so many questions. Those 'hows'. 'what ifs' and any other types of doubt in your mind.
We can't really know if online love is real or not unless we are in the situation. We can't judge them unless we are in the same shoes. The same goes to love that we experience in reality. And as far as others concern, online love is as real as reality. We can't be the judge of that.
But of course, it will always be nice to hold your partner and physical contact and activities will make the relationship more deeply. We all need physical contact and manner to feel the love more deeply.
Some started their relationship online and continued being in love offline and personal. There are many success stories about that. And there are those sad stories about not being able to go on with such a circumstance.
Many also take advantage of this situation so you need to be really reasonable when in this kind of affair. You need to be ready just like being ready in any other situation. Need to be more cautious.
Nevertheless, any situation is really risky when it comes to love. Taking the risk it one factor when you truly love and don't forget the pain. Love and pain come hand in hand. It's how the world goes round.
***How about you? Do you believe in online love? Have you experienced it? Are you currently in this situation? Let me know your thoughts.*** 😊
Green Photography
As I've mentioned in my previous post, I am not good at taking pictures. But I tried my luck yesterday and this was how it looked.
My husband loves succulents and Cactus. He takes care of then really good. Look at those baby succulents.. Aren't they cute??
I don't know what kind of plant this is but I love the yellow flower in green leaves. So summer-like feeling.
I would love to learn how to take pictures. I have many pictures of my kids but I'd like to give them their privacy so I'm trying to take pictures of nature instead.
Taking photo feels like your saving the memory. I love that feeling. I am passionate in making good memories. Maybe I'll do this more often until I am good at it. Or maybe ask my husband's advice on how to take good photos.
For the meantime, enjoy my photography in newbie style. 😊
