Octobeer

How was your month of September so far? Did you have a great and blessed month of September? Time really flies so fast. Yesterday was September and today is already October. September really is a tough month, especially with the bloody value of the BCH that affects other people too, but so far it gives us an opportunity to save more BCH if the value is low, and when it pumps, the value will rise and so do your savings. 

Since last month, I have already decided that I will no longer write down my goals every month, but instead, I will just go with the flow. And it really is a good idea because last month, I was surprised with what I had achieved on this platform. It was way more than I expected, and one of the reasons why I no longer set goals is that I don't want to pressure myself too much. I'll just accept what comes to me. Que Sera Sera, "Whatever will be, will be"

I feel so proud and happy about someone's achievement because they deserve it all. Seeing them makes me feel happy when they share their achievements from their hard work.

Oh, let's end this introductory part, and now, let's go back to the main topic of this month's first article. 

Why OctoBEER ?

My cousins welcomed the month of October with a bottle of beer. Since my "Kuya" (older cousin) will be going back to the city tomorrow, they decided to have a drink with him for the last time. We aren't sure when he will be back, maybe if there is another occasion or family gathering. While they are enjoying their glass of beer, I am in the corner enjoying eating the "pulutan", since I don't drink alcoholic beverages. While they were talking, my other cousin played one of the "Parokya ni Edgar" songs, and then they started talking about the Oktoberfest.

They are always present at every Oktoberfest in Cebu, never missing an opportunity to join in the fun, knowing how much they enjoy drinking beer and partying all night.They reminisce about the last time they attended Oktoberfest, way back in 2018. How fun their lives were during that time without worrying about the flu, wearing masks, and social distancing. All they cared about that time was having fun and enjoying the night. Unlike today, where everything is done virtually and gathering in an open area with lots of people is not allowed here in our place. Social distancing is a must, and, of course, a facemask and face shield.

And they're like,

Oh, how fun it was back then!

Oktoberfest

Oktoberfest is an annual beer and music event that takes place in October. Its origins can be traced back to Munich, Germany. Oktoberfest is a two-week-long celebration in Munich, Germany, that concludes on the first Sunday in October. The festival began on October 12, 1810, to commemorate the marriage of Crown Prince Ludwig of Bavaria to Princess Therese von Sachsen-Hildburghausen. San Miguel Oktoberfest was first held in the Philippines in 1982 and has grown from a one-night event to a week-long, nationwide event. From Luzon to the Visayas and Mindanao.

This is also one of the most awaited celebrations in the Philippines. Given that there will be unlimited beer and other drinks at the event, as well as local and international bands joining and performing at the said event, Parokya ni Edgar, Mayonaise, and other well-known local bands frequently perform at the festival. Last year, they held a virtual Oktoberfest since we are locked in a quarantine. And guess what? people still do enjoy having fun celebrating the oktoberfest virtually.

I guess this year's Oktoberfest will also be held virtually since we are not hundred percent sure if the government allowed celebratory events with lots of people gathered around. 

MAY OUR MONTH OF OCTOBEER BE BOUNTIFUL!
Have a great and blessed October ahead :>
