Try To Play This Game
*I know most of us spent our childhood playing a lot of games. Common games are hide and seek, chasing, chinese garter, playhouse and many more. But, have you tried a horror game? Let's just exclude online games, as this one is common now, but those games that you play while interacting your childhood playmates.*
*For today's article, I will share those horror games that we played when I was young. If you guys have games like this, you can share it too:)*
***But first let me Flex to you my sponsors, one of those persons who guide and support me throughout my journey here. You guys can check them too:)***
________________________
Bilog na Buwan
This is the common game that we like to play. We will create a big circle in the sand and divide it into four by creating another Cross or X at the center of the circle; this serves as the four rooms inside the house. After that each player will do Paper Scissors Rock, or what we commonly called *"Bato-bato Pick".* The Player who will lose will serve as the aswang; the Mythical creature who can eat humans*(I already shared this in some of my articles).*
The remaining players will act as a family, so they will stay inside the house. When everyone was ready, the Aswang will knock the door, holding a stick; and this is how the conversation of the game;
***Aswang :*** *Accept this gift that I prepare for your family [give the stick]*
***Player 1(serve as the father of the family) :*** *Thank you! Where do you live?*
***Aswang :*** *at the cemetery*
***Player 1:*** *who is your mom?*
***Aswang :*** *white lady*
***Player 1 :*** *who is your father?*
***Aswang :*** *kapre(a strong entity who live in the big trees, they have bad odor and likes to smoke)*
***Player 1 :*** *who is your sister?*
***Aswang :*** *vampire*
***Player 1 :*** *who is your brother?*
***Aswang :*** *zombie*
And after that the Aswang will enter the house*(the circle you've created)*, and chase everyone. This Aswang can only walk in the lines, and everytime he/she touch your body you're going to be an Aswang too. So the winner is the last to stand.
The Old Woman Story
This kind of a trick game that you can only do once to your playmate. Of course if you done doing it, then he/she already know what's the next. This was only telling a story to a friend and the goal is to scare or shock a friend. The story that you're going to share will go like this;
*There was an old woman who beg for food. She was a beggar and always bring a sack at her back. Her right hand was cut, and it was only covered with a cloth. One day, Peter met the old woman, he saw it wearing dirty clothes and tired. Peter give him money and ask the woman, "who cut your hand grandma? ". The old woman slowly left her head and say, "YOU!"*
Shock your friend by saying *"YOU!"*. It was also up to you on how you make your voice serious or something scary on your story, so that your friend will focus or got scared. Just remember to be ready, maybe your friend will slap or punch you after saying *"You!". Lol!*
Horror House
Since we cannot go to a real haunted house, or even horror house in a carnival. We usually play Horror House inside the classroom.
During lunch break, after we eat, we will move all the chair on the side, close all the window and turn off the lights. Everyone will pick their partner to play the Paper Scissor Stone Game, all the winners will serve as the human while those who lose are the ghost or monsters. After that the winners will prepare outside, while those who lose will enter the room and prepare themselves. When everyone was ready, all the players will enter the room and the game will start. The goal is to get out in the classroom through the other door; as classrooms usually have 2 doors.
*And that's it! These are the 3 horror but funny games that we like to play before. We also play Spirit of the glass btw. But this is not good to play.*

________________________
When I am just 1 year old and a half, my grandparents*(father side)* bought a land for us. We are living in Manila that time, and they want us to transfer here in Mindanao.
As I can remember, I am 5 years old when my parents felt unusual things in our house. According to my father, there was a time when I said to him *"Pa I'm so hungry"*. 12 noon at that time, and it's only me, father and my younger brother, inside the house. When someone shouted *"Isdaaa"*, which means Fish. My father immediately go out but saw no one; quiet.
When I started my primary years, they built a sari-sari store for another income. This store is the scariest part of our house. I usually stay there together with Ate Sheila*(not her real name)*, who serves as my older sister and work to take care of our store. I start to see shadows passing by and things got missing but after minutes you can find it in the same place you searched but none.
One night my mom told me to prepare the utensils for dinner, I said yes and go at the kitchen. We have a big window at the kitchen, so while preparing the table, the wind blow hard and open the curtains of the window. I was like a statue for a minute, when I saw a white lady pass by the window. She looks like a visible spirit, blur like white smoke. I immediately run to my parents and told everything to them, but they said it maybe a rapt and try to forget it.
Every night I hear footsteps, seems like shoes or sandal walking in the living room, but it was loud that it always wake me up during night. I told it to my parents and they said it was just a tick tock of the clock. I even saw a hand of a dwarf, and ladies with different colors walking around my father while sleeping at night, I already shared this on my **previous articles**.
At night I can see the pictures in our wall smiling creepy at me. I didn't tell it to my parents because I know they will just ignore it. So I tell everything to my uncle, the same uncle I am talking to that who likes to share stories. He said that maybe those are my guardian angels, *like what Guardian angel? why so creepy!* There was also a time when me and my uncle was talking outside, already night, when someone pushed our 4-wheel vehicle. I can still remember how fast my heartbeat that time since I am lying my back on it. My uncle was also shocked as he saw how it moved.
*Don't get my parents wrong, they are just trying to ignore it because they don't want us to get scared more. They said this when I'm in higschool.*
My aunt and grandma are victim's of my father's doppelganger, if you are not familiar with this. Doppelganger is a spiritual entity who like to copy someone. They experienced following my father but when they get into the place, no one was there.
***Ps. These are just few from all those every scenario in our house.***
*As of now we are still living in this house. Yes, there are times that we can feel them. But our faith in GOD is much stronger, and we also fixed the position of our house. We already stop the sari-sari store years ago, and make it as our room*.
*So if you're experiencing these things;*
Keep your faith more stronger
Arrange the set-up of your house
Think positively, live the house with joy and love

Lucky but Scary
*Which one will you choose? Living in a haunted mansion that you can have everything you need and want, or in a poor house with nothing but there's no spiritual entity ruining your daily life?*
*I made this question for today's article. A real experience of my mother when she was young.*
***But first let me Flex to you my sponsors, one of those persons who guide and support me throughout my journey here. You guys can check them too:)***
________________________
After my mom graduated in Elementary, he accompanied her cousin in Manila*(capital city of the Philippines)* for vacation. Living in a province, it's a big privilege for her to step in the city, so without further thinking, she said yes to her cousin's invitation.
Her cousin is working in a rich family's house that time. So when they got into the house, she was so amazed how big it is, and how all their things looks expensive. On the very first day, the owner already like my mom. She told my mom to stay in their house, and they will give everything to her, even to sustain my mom's schooling. The owner's children already grown up, maybe the reason they are longing for a daughter in the house; then the married couple found my mom.
*Fast forward ...*
By God's Will, my mom stay there and serve as a maid. But the owner didn't let her to do any work. They even provide everything to my mom, more that what she needs and wants. The owner introduced my mom as their niece, and send my mom to school with a car every morning, same thing after class.
Since my mom serve as their child, she was tasked to take care of everything when they are not around.
One night, it was already 10 pm, when my mom together with the house workers gathered in the living room watching movie. The lady owner go down and told them to close the door before sleeping, so that the dogs can't enter and go up to the second floor. They said yes and the lady owner back to their room.
12 am, they are still watching when they hear steps in the stairs. All of them look at the back and saw the lady owner going down the stairs without saying anything, then enter the kitchen. They just ignore it and continue to watch while talking. After a minutes, one of the worker notice that the owner didn't get back. She walked to the kitchen and seen no one. All of them followed, but the lady owner was not there. They think that maybe she go out using the other door, so they just ignore it.
In the morning, they asked the owner if she went into the kitchen that time. The owner said that she was sleeping already that time, and the last time she go down is when she told them to close the door. My mom get scared because it was her first time to experience something spooky in the house.
There was also a time when my mom and the lady owner was talking in the kitchen when the chair move on itself. It's not new to the owner, as she used to experience this before.
When they are out of town, it's only my mom who stay in the house. There are times that she can hear little steps running in the second floor. They already said that there are dwarfs living in the house but she didn't believed it until she saw the steps on her two eyes.
She was alone in the house, and the lady owner called her to turn off the aircon in the second floor. When she's in the room, she saw small steps in the ceiling running; seems like they are playing. They called this white dwarfs which the only intention is to live and not to harm unlike black dwarfs.

Scared of the Rain
*What kind of weather do you like the most? Is it a sunny or rainy? How about cloudy or windy, or maybe few here will prefer stormy.*
*Me, I will choose rainy. Cold weather, nothing to do, just watching TV while eating your favorite snacks; lying in bed with a thick blanket; watching the rain drops while drinking hot coffee or chocolate.*
*But this was really different when I was a kid. How much I love the rain now is equal on how I hate it when I was that young. Why and how? That's the topic that I am going to share now.*
***But first let me Flex to you my sponsors, one of those persons who guide and support me throughout my journey here. You guys can check them too:)***
________________________
Tiyanak
Story telling is one of our bonding moments. Me and my friends like to gather at night in our balcony, form a circle and then put a candle at the center. I'm not scared about the rain, and actually it was fun until one of our friend tell a story about his experienced during heavy rain.
*According to him;*
*Last year we visited our grandma in the province. At night, me and my parents are sleeping in the room until a heavy rain came, I cannot back to sleep so I just look at the ceiling. After a few minutes, I heard a cry of a baby. I got scared but thinking that maybe it's in the neighbors. At the morning I asked my grandma if they have neighbors who have a baby, but she answered "None. If you hear a baby crying, just ignore it. It can be a Tiyanak trying to attract you*."
For those who do not know, **Tiyanak** is one the Philippine mythical creature. A baby monster, which looks like a goblin, if you have seen The Lord of the Rings, you might remember Gollum, who said,*"Myyy Precious"*
There are beliefs that this Tiyanak came from those babies that was aborted by there parent/s, through reincarnation they became this creature. While on the other side of the old stories, it was a belief that they are children of vampires, ofcourse like parents like children.
Tikbalang
Have you experience this meteorological phenomenon sunshower? This is when the suns shines so bright but also raining at the same time. In scientific explanation this is common.
But during my childhood days, this is what we called *"Kasal sa Tikbalang"* or Tikbalang's wedding.
**Tikbalang** is another mythical creature with the figure of half man and half horse, known as the guardian of the forest. They have this golden hair that once you get it, you can say a wish and it will be granted.
In Greek Mythology we have this Centaur, human in the upper part while horse in the lower part of the body. This is somewhat different to Tikbalang, as it have head, feet and hands of a horse with the figure of a human in the middle part.
Another story from our old neighbor, that in there former place, there was a Tikbalang roaming every night. Some of them seen it, while some only heard it. As of now, there's no more story about Tkbalang, I don't know if they are gone*(if they really existed),* or the story about Tikbalang already faded.

Be Careful at School
*Do you believe that every school was a former cemetery? This is a common belief for every student, that maybe most of you already heard this line.*
*Some of my previous articles talks about my scary experiences at school. Just like yesterday I shared one of my classmate having a third eye, and how she suffered from it. Today/Tonight, I will share some of my ramdom scary experiences at school. Maybe this can help you to bring back those memories in your school, at least you have a topic to share for* ***Theblackdoll****'s competition.*

The Principal's office
I have this childhood friend, actually he is a classmate of my younger brother, although we have the same age, whom I became close because his mother was working in our house. He likes to accompany his mom, and where we keeps on playing. When we got into highschool, he work in our school office, so that he can help for expenses. According to him, he always go home late, because most of the teachers request him to print handouts. Staying alone in the office was nothing for him, until he start to hear and see strange things. Here are some of it.
It was 6 PM (*here in the Philippines this was already dark*) when he stay alone in the office printing handouts. He decided to go in the guard house to get his bag, and turn off the printer. But when he is back he saw that the printer was printing those handouts that he put on the table. He felt scared but try not to mind it. The next night he stay late again in the office, and hear that there is someone using the bathroom, he heard a water from faucet and the toilet being flashed.
He told it to one of his close teacher, and said that he also experienced those things.
Possessed Students
When I was in grade 7, playing Spirit of the glass is common to us. Everytime our teacher was not around, we then form a circle, close all the window and the door. There was a time that our teacher was discussing in front when we heard the other section's noise. Our teacher stop his discussion and go out to look what's happening, then he found out that one of student there was being possess. We are all worried, especially when one of my classmate said, "*Look! That's the result of playing spirit of the glass."* We want to go in the other room, but choose to stay inside, afraid that teachers will scold us.
The next day another student was being possess in the same room. She became so strong like a man, that our teachers are getting hard time to back her to normal. This student is now my bestfriend, I actually asked her what she felt that time, but she only said *"I can't remember anything"*
Playing Instruments
When I was in primary, I became a bestfriend of our school PTA Treasurer's daughter. Everynoon we go to her mom's office and have our lunch. There are bands, like drum corps and majorettes in our school. All the instruments was stored in the office.
Guards in our school experienced that when the night came, everytime they pass the office they can hear someone playing the instruments. Months ago, one of the gurad in this school, record wants happening in this office. He record the organ playing itself and post it on Facebook. After days it all already deleted. For sure, the school head make it stop as it can really affect the numbers of enrollment on the next school year.
*Not really scary right? Lol! But I hope this gives you idea to join the contest.*

Why you locked the door?
*Have you been tricked by your family, friends, or sibling? How about by spiritual entity?*
*We know most of these entities makes us scared, but there are times that they only want to play and have fun, and I personally experienced it when I was a kid.*
*I'll remind you ahead that this was all about another sharing of my scary experiences. If you are not fun of horror genre, I'm sorry for this. Just want to feel the spirit of Halloween. Lol!*
***But first let me Flex to you my sponsors, one of those persons who guide and support me throughout my journey here. You guys can check them too:)***
________________________
This happened when I was like 9 or 10 years old; the time when a lot of spiritual entities living in our house.
It was a Halloween season, Sunday evening. Only me and my mom stay in our house. I cannot remember where is my father and younger brother that time, but I'm sure there's only two of us inside the house.
We are watching *Rated K*, which is now *Rated Korina*. For those who don't know this is a television newscast, somewhat documentary. Since the Halloween is approaching, all their topics on that night was all about horror.
Me and my mom sitting on the couch while watching. I like to watch this kind of topics since it was so interesting. Yes, I felt scared but the presence of my mom besides, give me more courage to watch.
When it's already commercial my mom told me that she will do halfbath, I said okay, and now I'm alone watching TV. After few minutes I felt scared, and decided to stay outside while waiting for my mom. We have computer shop outside, so staying there makes me feel relieve, at that time there's a lot of our neighbors playing games, even my friends.
I went to the bathroom and knocked the door. I told my mom that I will go outside, just not to lock the door so I can easily go inside when she's done. She said yes, then I let our TV on and go outside. After a minutes, I saw that there's a shadow who passed by in our window. I went back because I'm thinking that it's my mom; done taking half bath. But when I open the door it was already locked. I keep on knocking but no one response. I don't know why, but I feel so angry at my mom why she locked the door. I even kicked it, because I know that she was already there, I can hear the noise. Until my mom open the door, and the first thing I said was;
*"Why you locked the door!?"*
She was silent for a moment staring at me and said, *"I didn't locked the door, I'm in the bathroom, I just came out now. It's you who locked it"*
I felt so scared from that moment, I explain to my mom that it's impossible because I cannot lock the door outside.
*Let me tell you, our lock that time was a barrel bolts, just like the photo below. So there's no chance that I can lock it from the outside.*
In the morning, when I woke up I immediately tell everything to my father, then I look at my mom and said, *"Right mom?"*
Then she replied, *"Does is happened?"*
I was like *"WHAT!"*

Third Eye : A Curse or A Gift?
*What comes in your mind when you are ask about the third eye, is it a curse or a gift?*
*If you enjoy exploring spiritual realms, horrors, and mysteries, you will undoubtedly regard this as a gift. If, on the other hand, you are easily scared or have this third eye open but don't know how to control it, then you would answer this as a curse.*
*Today's article was about a former classmate who has an open third eye. Remember that the third eye does not literally mean another eye on the forehead, but rather the ability to see, sense, hear, and smell spirits.*

I have this classmate during primary years in school, which I became close friend. She act like a boyish but she likes to wear sexy clothes; imagine a girl who move like a boy but wear fancy or fitted clothes, that's how she is. She likes to talk and laugh, and join some school competition. There's no sign that she is will encounter problems about paranormal entities until it all change when we got in highschool.
Although we know each other for so long, we have different sets of friends. We barely talk when we got in highschool since she likes to sit at the back.
During my 3rd year in high school, we used to transfer in different classroom. I don't know what's the problem of our teachers but during their subject, they like to stay in their rooms and it's our obligation to transfer. Imagine having 8 subjects a day, we need to keeps on transferring in different rooms; like college style.
In our year level, there was a classroom located at the very end of the path way, it was known as a scary classroom since there's a lot of students who saw white lady there.
It was our MAPEH subject when we transfer in this section. Our teacher was discussing in front, when one of my classmate shouted and start to cry. We look at the back, and I saw that it was her. Our teacher runs toward her, and asked what happened, she didn't respond but just keep on crying. We are all worried what happened to her, and our teacher asked her seatmate, but she don't know why, as they are only quiet while listening to discussion. My teacher asked her again, and she said *"I saw a lot of spirits"*, while saying this she was only closing her eyes and don't want to open it. Our teacher help her to stand up and bring her to the guidance office; we don't have clinic, so if not for Principal's office then go to guidance office.
We went back into that classroom the other day, and our teacher told us that our classmate was crying because she can see a lot of spirits, and there's a child with a lot of blood in the face, go in front of her and stare. She also revealed that she had been experiencing it for a long, but had kept it a secret.
She was confined in the hospital because her body was so weak; having a high fever. They also bring her to the Folk healer, and it said that there's no bad entity ruining her, the problem is the third eye; wide open. She have a cousin who is also our classmate, who inform us about her. According to her cousin, she was also forbidden to wear black color of clothes as it will attract bad energy to her. She was already absent for two months, a big possibility that she will stop her studies. Prayer is help that we can offer to her.
By God's grace, after two months and a half, she came back in school healthy, her mom is also there to guide her. We asked her many questions and she said that she was suffering about her third eye. We also asked her if she can still see spirits, and she said that she can see sometimes but unlike before that spirits for her is like living people.

It's Time to Go Home!
*What was the horror stories that you can still remember? For me, there's a lot. When I was a kid my father used to tell us horror stories before going to bed. My father was the most expert story teller that I know, he can even write a book with different genre. Lol!*
*And today's article was about one of his horror stories, maybe some Filipino here already know this story. This was common and even our science teacher shared this to warn us; to do not go everywhere, go home immediately.*
*This story was about two bestfriends. First setting was at the school when their teacher announced that there is no class. Let's just name the main character Ana while her bestfriend is Maryana.*
***But first let me Flex to you my sponsors, one of those persons who guide and support me throughout my journey here. You guys can check them too:)***
________________________
The Bestfriends
Ana and Maryana are bestfriends, so since there is no class. Maryana invited Ana to go in their house. Ana agreed and go with her bestfriend; her plan it to go home in the afternoon. They already reached the house, when Ana notice that they don't have neighbors, they are some houses that she can see but far from them.
Maryana's parents welcome Ana into their house, they stay in the room and keeps on talking until Ana didn't notice that it was already evening. Maryana tell Ana to sleep in their house and go home the next day. Since Ana don't have someone to be with and it's already dark, she decided to just stay in her classmate's house.
It was already midnight when Ana woke up because of the noise that she can hear outside. She slowly get up, so that she can't disturb her bestfriend while sleeping. She open the door and walk near the window. She saw a big pot outside the house; seems like her bestfriend's parents are preparing to cook. She was curious why her bestfriend's parents are busy cooking wherein it's already midnight.
It was dark and only the reflection of the moon gives light, so she can see what they are doing outside. She secretly hide herself behind the window, until she heard the parents of her classmates talk.
**Mother :** *Make it fast, we need to finish this before sunrise.*
**Father :** *Okay okay, as soon as the water boil, I will get her classmate.*
**Mother :** *Do it gently, so you won't wake her up.*
As soon as Ana heard this, he immediately back to her classmate's room because she already since that her bestfriend's parents are ***aswang***.
*For those who don't know what it* ***aswang****, this is one of the Filipino mythical creature. It can eat humans, especially pregnant woman, and can transform to different creatures(dog, pig, cat, etc.)*
The room was so dark and there's is no way that she can escape. Since Ana is smart, she made an idea. While her bestfriend was sleeping, she slowly get the necklace and put it to herself. She have the same body structure to her bestfriend so the parents cannot distinguished on which are their daughter and her, except for the necklace that her bestfriend only have. After she put it, she go back to bed and act like sleeping.
Few minutes, her bestfriend's father inter the room. She was so afraid but remain quite. The father start to check them, and hold their neck, it touch the necklace she was wearing. She was closing her eyes but she can feel that the father was carrying now her bestfriend. She then hear the door close and her plan was success.
She immediately get up and escape the house, while the parents are busy cooking their daughter, which they thought she is. She run outside and asked for help for those houses far behind. They call the Police, and fortunately got the parents, while her bestfriend was already dead.

Traveling : Places that I want to visit Someday
*Traveling is a great way to relieve stress. It does not only make us feel relaxed, but it also provides us with some adventure and unforgettable memories that we can treasure in our lives. And in today's article, I'll talk about my travel plans; maybe we have the same places to travel soon.*
*I'd like to point out that the places I'm about to mention are just few from many places I'd like to visit someday. Traveling is one of my greatest dreams and goals, and I'd like to use this article as inspiration. Years from now, I'll look back on this article and say, "I made it!" and "It was more than it!"*
*If you have some travel goals, you can share it too:)*
***But first let me Flex to you my sponsors, one of those persons who guide and support me throughout my journey here. You guys can check them too:)***
________________________
National
For my beloved Philippines, I want to visit Boracay and Palawan, which are the most popular tourist destinations in our country. This is not surprising given the abundance of beautiful spots
in these areas, which include beaches, rock formations, caves, resorts, and so on. When I was in high school, one of my classmates went to Palawan with his family, and when he returned, he told us all about it, and we were all like, wow!
Another place that my teachers always mentioned when I was in primary school was the Chocolate Hills in Bohol, especially when we talked about "Yamang Lupa." I'd like to visit during both the dry and wet seasons to see how the green hills change to a brown, chocolate color.
International
First on my list is the Holy Land. My mom always tell this before that she want to go at Holy land, to step in the places that Jesus step too. Just like mom, it's my biggest dream too. I want to see those places in Holy Land which I only saw on TV and books. To know more about the history, and to experience more about Christianity.
Paris and Korea, these countries are my travel goals with my friends. We are just highschool when we plan to go there someday. When we are down about studies; low grades, tiredness, discouragement; we only say "keep fighting! Remember our plan to go in Paris/Korea" And this makes our energizer.
Bangladesh, Pakistan and India, I don't have any knowledge about the best places in these three countries, but the reason why I want to visit is the people. I met online friends from these countries, and all of them have a good heart.
More particular
I want to go somewhere where I can see a lot of stars and a view of a black dome covered in glitter. This means a lot to the Astrophiles (lovers of stars/astronomy) out there.
I'm fascinated by historical sites such as the Pyramids of Giza in Egypt, El Castillo in Chichén Itzá, Mexico, and places in Greece about the Greek mythology.
*As I previously stated, these are only a few examples; if given the opportunity, I would like to travel the entire globe. Lol! We don't know, I believe in positivity and the law of attraction. By God's Will, let's claim it!*

Tolerating is a Bad Habit
*I was watching videos on Tiktok until I came up with a video of a cute little girl who was so angry to her mother. She talked like an old woman, who have an explanation about everything. Then where I remember my cousin.*
*I have this cousin who is naughty, from the moment he was just a toddler, until now that he is already nine years old. Let's just call him Dem.*
***But first let me Flex to you my sponsors, one of those persons who guide and support me throughout my journey here. You guys can check them too:)***
________________________
It started when he was only two years old. He became their neighbors' alarm clock, not because of his cry, but because of the bad words he uttered when he awoke. They live in a neighborhood where every house is right next to the next. Children are excellent imitators, and he copied it from their neighbors. Unfortunately, his parents tolerate it; sometimes they will simply say, *"no baby, that's bad,"* and then nothing else.
Years had passed and it become worst. Although we are far from their house but the news about him always reach in our family.
Most of the time, he punches their neighbors who are the same age as him, and he has become a bully to the point where even his parents are afraid of him. He is too young, but he has control over his parents.
I once encountered how spoiled he is when I visited them. Her sister enjoys doing make-up, so my cousin and I are the models that time. Everything is fine until Dem stands above the table, faces us, and pees.
Kelly(not her real name), who is only three years older than him, has a cat that she has always cared for, until it was lost one day. They were all worried about where the cat was. The next day, when my grandmother went to get some clothes from their cabinet she saw the cat inside; so weak and was rushing it's breath. They already have a gut feeling that Dem is the cause, so they ask him, and he says *"yes."*
The following month was the worst, because he found the cat again and brought it to their house. When his parents returned home, they discovered that there was a lot of blood inside. Dem was asked what happened, but he remained silent. Until Kelly told them that her cat had a lot of wounds and that there's big possibility that it was my spoiled cousin who did it. They asked him again the other day, and he said *"yes."*
*That's the only good thing about him, he is honest that he do all those bad things*.
Last year, when he went to my grandma's house; they are just neighbors. My grandmother has just finished washing the blanket and does not want Dem to step into it because his feet are filthy from playing. Instead of listening, he stepped into the blanket and continued to jump. My grandmother became angry and grabbed a softbroom to spank him, but he shielded himself with the thick blanket. My grandma still spank him, but we are sure what she did is not painful, as my grandma didn't use to do it. But Dem stand up and run. From that day, he never talk to my grandma, until the Christmas day celebration. Since Christmas is all about love, we told him to say sorry to grandma but he only said *"no!".*
My grandma loves plant, but when she's not around Dem always cut the leaves of the flower. When he was caught, he will just run so quick that my grandma can't reach him.
I already told my parents, that it is not all about being spoiled, but it's already a disorder. Everytime he made a mistake, his parents will only say *"No Dem, that's bad",* but when they are in a bad mood, they will hit Dem too much, thinking about the mistakes he did weeks ago.
*We cannot scold Dem because his parents will defend him. One thing for sure that their life will become worst if Dem will not change.*
*Dem didn't do anything bad in me, except for that one time when he peed in front of us when we were younger. There are times when they come to our house and he is perfectly behaved, which leads me to believe that the problem is with his parents and surroundings.*

Ancient Egyptian: Mummification and Building of Pyramid
*Mummies are the preserved bodies of the dead, which can be created naturally or through religious rituals. Today's article was all about the concept of mummies, specifically on how ancient Egyptians do the process of mummification This is just a supplement to* @Mictorrani *'s article* *Mummies and Mummification**; if you like this kind of topic then that article is recommended.* https://read.cash/@Mictorrani/egyptian-mummies-mummification-27386004
*Aside from the mummies, let us also discuss the Pyramid, a request of our kind demon* @Lucifer01 *. I only have few knowledge about pyramid but I'll try my best to share it.*
***But first let me Flex to you my sponsors, one of those persons who guide and support me throughout my journey here. You guys can check them too:)***
________________________
Secrets of the Mummies
I read Harriet Griffey's book *'Secret of the Mummies,'* which taught me more about the Egyptian method of preserving a mummy; the most common civilization to practice mummification.
According to the text;
*"if a dead person's spirit could recognize it's preserved body, it would live forever in the afterlife...They believed that the priests could help decide a person's fate after death."*
-***Secret of the Mummies***
The word priests(chief priests) above is the one who will lead the ritual. If we based it is operation, he is the doctor. He will put jackal-headed mask to represent Anubis;
The Egyptian god of mummification. After washing the body then the embalming process began.
For Egyptians, there are only 4 important organs in the human body. During embalming, they extract and put into different jars which represents different gods;
Hapy - baboon god, who guarded the lungs.
Duamutef - jackal-headed god, who guarded the stomach.
Qebehsenuef - falcon god, who guarded intestines.
Imsety - human-like god, who guarded the liver.
If you're wondering what happened to the brain after the process, it was thrown away because Egyptians believed it wasn't important.
After that, they will apply Natron, a natural salt found in the enges of desert lakes, to dry the body. When it's finished, the body will be stored for 40 days. After 40 days, they will apply linen or sand to keep the body in shape, as well as oils and spices to keep the skin from cracking. Finally, the body will be wrapped. It takes 15 days for the bandaging to be completed before the body is placed in a coffin and mummified.
They also have a *"Book of the Dead"* with 200 spells. They place it inside the coffin in the belief that it will help to a person's journey to the afterlife. Along with this book, there are treasures to help them meet their needs and gain a higher rank in the afterlife.
Pyramid
Since we've already discussed mummification, let's move on to pyramids, which are believed to have been built for religious proposes of Egyptians. Some conspiracy theories claim that the pyramid was built by aliens, similar to how impossible the position of Stonehenge is; that an ordinary human cannot assemble it.
However, if we base it on those discoveries, pyramids were built by slave workers at the time, much like how the pharaohs in the old testament punished slaves to work.
Because the importance of the afterlife is one of their most important religious beliefs, they built pyramids to serve as tombs and monuments. Earlier pyramids resembled a staircase, and were built to serve as the pharaohs' staircase to the god of the sun.
Inside the pyramid, you can see the Pharaoh's Chambers, as well as treasures and other valuable items. There are also rooms for the Pharaoh's family, and when they die, they will be buried inside the pyramid alongside the Pharaoh's mummified body.
***Informations above are based on the books that I read, former lessons that we tackle and my own understanding.***

Flickering Light made by the Spirit.
*Flickering lights is a common scenario in horror films, and it usually occurs in a house or a hospital. If you enjoy scaring people, this can be a prank to scare them because they will automatically assume it was made by a ghost. Also, if you're planning to turn your house into a hunted theme for this Halloween, then don't forget to have flickering light bulb.*
*It was already the mindset of the most of us that flickering light means ghost. But remember not to conclude immediately that there are made by ghosts, since reasons can be poor electricity, defective bulb, wires or main switch. On the other hand, if these are not the cause then there's a big possibility that it was made by a ghost.*
*If we consider spiritual aspects, flickering lights indicate the presence of a ghost or angel in your surroundings. CCTV footage and people's personal experiences proved that this is true. If you have similar experiences, you can share it too.*
***Let me Flex to you my sponsors, one of those persons who guide and support me throughout my journey here. You guys can check them too:)***
________________________
Earlier my younger brother told me that our lightbulb in the CR always flicker at 2 or 3 am. He used to sleep late the reason why he said this. He always share to me his scary experiences, but just like me it became normal to us; yes, there are times that we feel scared but mostly it is normal to us. There's a lot of paranormal entities living in our house when we are just new here, so when sometimes we can feels something unusual, my always reaction was *"okay they are here". (Lol!)*
My younger brother also told me years ago that there is a scientific reason why spirits can flicker the lights. It doesn't mean they're flipping the switch on and off, but they do produce chemicals that cause a light to flicker when they pass by. Another reason is their telepathic ability, which help them to communicate with us. Since they are unable to communicate directly with us, they do other ways to make us feel their presence; we Filipinos commonly say "may nagpaparamdam."
*I personally experienced flickering lights and this is how it happened.*
My school during high school have two room at the back of the stage. One is for our SSC office, while the other one is abandoned; only broken chairs, tables and other broken materials. I was an officer at that time in our club, so everytime there was an event we are obliged to plan and help. Our club adviser told us to go in that abandoned room to get some materials that we can use for props.
We already know that this room is haunted because many students have reported that the lights flicker when they enter alone. My co-officers and I went there, and we were all silent while looking for materials to use, until one of the officers said, *"Did you know that the light here flickers?"* At that moment, the light began to flicker. And, of course, our usual response is to run as quickly as possible.

My Teachers : Strict yet Unforgettable
*Moments in school is one of the treasured time in our life. But as a student or a former student, have you experience having a strict or terror teacher/s? If you do, then it makes your school memories unforgettable.*
*I experienced having this kind of teachers before, and although it gives us problem that time, it serves as and motivation and inspiration to become more in our present time.*
*And now I will share these 3 strict and terror teachers in my different levels of education.*
***But first, let me Flex to you my sponsors, one of those persons who guide and support me throughout my journey here. You guys can check them too:)***
________________________
Primary Education
Let's start with our teacher when I was in grade 1, let's call her Ma'am Chiz Musa, not her real name. She was known as the most strict teacher in the campus, that almost everyone is afraid of her. As I can remember, I only saw her smiling genuinely once, as she looks like not in the mood as always. We cannot even greet her *'good morning'*, because we are afraid that she will scold us.
As a grade one student, there is only one teacher for all subjects. Since Ma'am Chiz Musa is our adviser, we are with her from the beginning of the day until the end. When she needed to leave the room, such as to go to the office or another classroom, she always locked the door and even the CR.
One day, she scolded one of my classmate/friend in front of the entire class. So, as soon as my friend got home, she told it to her parents. Her parents were so enraged that her father came to our campus the next day. I was in row 1 and can easily see the gate. I saw her father walk onto the campus with his coworkers. They are carpenters, so when they enter the campus, her father was carrying a hammer, while the two others on his back are carrying carpentry saws; imagine how the heroes walk in the movie after the bomb explodes or when they do entrance*(lol!)*
Our teacher immediately greets them with a calm and smiling face, and informs my friend's father that she did not scold her child, but simply told her not to do it again. My friend's father, believed Ma'am Chiz Musa and left. When they are gone, our teacher locked our classroom, closed all the windows, and scolded us. She warns us that anyone who tells their parents about what's happening in the classroom will receive failing grades.
Secondary School
Our science teacher during grade 10 let's call her Ma'am Ah Riva, she was a beautiful and tall teacher. She looks professional the way she walk, teach and wear clothes. She speaks purely English during discussion so everyone of us are so attentive; afraid that she might call us for recitation.
Since Ma'am Ah Riva is a strict teacher, and want everything to be perfect, we need to erase the writing on the board, sit erect, arrange our chair, freshen our self and stand up before she reach the center in front. After the greetings, the signed student should came in front to lead the prayer. What I like the most is, the way she speak so fast; as I like teachers who speak fast. And my classmates who likes to cheat cannot do cheating because she have an eye like the robot doll in squid game.
Tertiary School
For college, our linguistic teacher in linguistic, let's just call him Mr. Way Kaluoy. Maybe he was already on his 60s, a very strict teacher who likes to have recitation. He always gives us so many handouts that by the end of the week, you are exhausted by the number of terms that you must memorize.
During our first quarter everyone of us got low grades. Most in the class are in the line of 7, while only few reach 80+. So one of my classmate speak out and tell us that we need to do some actions before we fail the subject. We give different suggestions until we came into a plan of cheating as a class.
He likes to conduct quizzes, and every checking his strategy is to swap the paper of row 1 to row 2. His quiz sometimes reach more than 100 points. So our plan is to erase the answer into correct one during checking. It's up to the checker if he/she will only give you 2 or 3 mistakes.
Mr. Way Kaluoy suspects us during the second quarter when he conduct another quiz with an overall score of 50. When he calls the first name, the checker responds with *"48 Sir,"* and so on. So when he called another name for the fourth time, he was confused why another big score, so he said, *"Give me the paper!"* and each of us felt nervous. My classmate handed in the paper, and Sir Way Kaluoy was so angry why my classmate corrected a lot of incorrect items. He told us to pass all the papers in front of him, and when he saw papers that were marked as correct even though they were not, he threw our papers away and left.
The next meeting, we provide a sorry program inside our classroom for him*(charr)*, we realized our mistakes too. He said that he accept our apologize if some of us will dance in front. So ofcourse my dancerist classmates did it, and finally every is fine. But still our grade was low. *(Lol!)*

Philippine Divinities : My Top Three Favorites
*Mythology is the collection of stories about deities (god and goddesses). It talks about supernatural powers and , that our ancestors believed that it happened when the world was created.*
*Zeus, Hera, Aphrodite, Athena and Poseiden, are just the few names in Greek mythology. If you can still remember your lessons about mythology, and read or watch stories about this then you might already know why they are called as the gods and goddesses.*
*If the Romans and Greeks have this Mythology, the Philippines also has divinities with similar characteristics to those popular deities. I'm not sure if my fellow Filipino writers are aware of this, but this is just a brief sharing of the goddesses I admire the most.*
***But first, let me Flex to you my sponsors, one of those persons who guide and support me throughout my journey here. You guys can check them too:)***
________________________
Dian Masalanta
She is the goddess of love and childbirth. She has a brother named Apolaki, the god of the sun.
Among all the dieties, Venus in Roman mythology or Aphrodite in Greek mythology, is my top favorite next to Hera. Imagine having the power of love; you are not going to be broken hearted. You can just give love to the person you like, and you are going to live happily ever after(*charr*!)
Mayari
She is the goddess of the moon. A guardian of the night, so if you are looking at the moon, you are looking at Mayari. For those Selenophile out there, this goddess suits for you.
Imagine you are the goddess of the moon, and you have the control over the high and low tides. Of course, you can see those people who are still out late at night, despite of curfew.
Hana
She is the morning goddess and Mayari's sister. If there is a goddess for the night, there is also a goddess for the day.
Imagine being the goddess of the morning, people will thank you for coming into their lives. Hearing people say , *"What a beautiful morning"* to *"What a beautiful Hana"*
*So this is my top favorites, while we also have other Philippine divinities like;*
Bathala
The most powerful of the gods and goddesses. He was referred to as the 'Creator of Everything'. Filipinos used to say "*Bahala na*," which is derived from the word "*Bathala na*," which means *"whatever happens; give it all to Bathala."*
Sitan
He is the god of the darkness. Filipino ancestors believed that if you do good deeds in this world, you will go to Maca, a place of 'eternal peace and happiness,' but if you do bad deeds, you will go to Kasanaan/Kasamaan, a place of 'grief and affliction', where you will see Sitan as the King.
Dumangan
The god of a bountiful harvest. If you want a good harvest, you must pray to Dumangan and offer him foods, and he will guard all your crops until they are ready for harvest.
Anagolay
The goddess of the missing stuff. It was a belief that if you lost something or looking for your stuffs, then must pray to Anagolay and she will help you to find it.
*And many more.*
*Did you get interested to one of these Philippine divinities that I've mentioned? If you do let me know it by sharing your thoughts :)*
*The above information is based on our previous lesson, Mythology and Folklore: Philippine Divinities, as well as my own interpretation.*

Prophetic Dream and Nightmare
*Today's article was inspired by the comment of* @Niazi420 *about his dream which comes to reality, on my previous article Dream is Power. If you haven't read it yet, it was all about a short sharing how dreams' work and Astral projection inspired by* @Theblackdoll *. She also asked me to write about nightmares, so in today's article I'll discuss these two types of dreams: prophetic dreams and nightmares. There are numerous types of dreams, but we will only discuss these two.*
***But first, let me Flex to you my sponsors, one of those persons who guide and support me throughout my journey here. You guys can check them too:)***
________________________
Prophetic Dream
*I was in the kitchen when I open a big box. I grab a scissors and cut the packaging type. When it's finally unsealed, I open it and saw chips, biscuits, ice cream and other foods.*
*Then my mom me wake up;* ***just a*** ***dream****!*
10 am when me and my parents when to the mall to buy some groceries for our mini sari-sari store that time. After we buy some groceries, we go to a fastfood chain and have our lunch then go home.
At home, I'm so excited to open and arrange the items that we bought. We are in the kitchen and my parents are helping to get the groceries out of it's seal. Ofcourse my favorite box is where the foods is. I get the scissors and open it. I saw chips, biscuits, ice cream and other foods; totally the same with my dream.
*This was the first time I experience prophetic dream, maybe this was already 10 years ago.* ***Prophetic Dream****, is the occurrence of your dream in real life. Most fortune tellers or people with the ability to predict what will happen base their predictions on their dreams.*
*Dream is power. Some may say that dreams are just a coincidence in reality, but what a coiincidence to happened multiple times right? As of now there are still times that I experience Prophetic dream, and yes it was amazing.*
*Have you also experience this one?*
Nightmare
*This dream is a dangerous one, because there are cases that people died because of nightmares. Problems in sleeping and dreaming are the result of our bad habits and unhealthy lifestyle. Causes my be:*
*High fever or effects of medication*
*Too much tiredness*
*Sleeping right after you eat*
*Watching or reading horror genre stories*
*Sleeping disorder*
*So, if you're experiencing these symptoms, that's why you had a nightmare. However, if this is not the case, we can conclude that a paranormal entity is interfering with your dream.*
At the hospital
During high school, our teacher had a nightmare in the hospital. It was a Christmas break, when they went on a vacation with his co-teachers. According on his story, they visited beautiful places, and slept in a hotel, a one week trip. Then return home to prepare for the Christmas celebration. One day after they got home, one of his co-teacher texted him to go get some documents in the school.
He left at 10 a.m. and arrived at school at 11 a.m., where he met another teacher and asked him, "Who is that old woman?" My teacher get scared, because he was the only one at the time, but the other teacher informed him that an elderly woman was accompanying him as he passed through the corridor. From that day forward, he began to feel ill, eventually developing a high fever and being admitted to the hospital.
While sleeping in the hospital one night, he feel that the bed was moving and that he could hear noises from which he had no idea where they came from. The bed is moving faster, and he can see someone black looking at him; he wants to shout but can't, and he wants to move but can't. Everything came to a halt when a nurse entered the room, and this is where he awoke from a nightmare.
*The same thing happened to our neighbor. When she was sleeping alone inside their house at noon, someone heavy sat on her above. It was choking her very tightly; angrily. He was yelling, but no one could hear her.*

Taking Advantage on Disabilities
*Did you know someone who has disabilities but is able to show that he or she can do anything?*
*I've seen most of these types of people on TV. They give me hope and courage to keep going in life. Because if they can do it, why can't I?*
*On the other hand, if there are people with disabilities who can still stand on their own, they are people who take advantage of this, not to build themselves, but to act pity then money.*
*Why I came up with this topic was because of this.*
**But first, let me Flex to you my sponsors, one of those persons who guide and support me throughout my journey here. You guys can check them too:)**

The Blind Man
There is an old blind man in our place who goes door to door asking for money. We called him *'Tatay' (another term for Father/Grandfather)*, and everytime he comes into our house, we give him even a small amount.
I was visiting my bestfriend, about 10-15 minutes walk from our house, when I saw Tatay. We're inside my best friend's house when I tell her about Tatay, until our conversation goes like this.
***Me:*** *It's amazing that Tatay can remember where he is going despite the fact that he is blind.*
***Her:*** *That old man?*
***Me:*** *Yes, he even knows how to get back into their house.*
***Her:*** *Of course, because he can see. He is not totally blind*
***Me:*** *ha? He told my father that he has been blind since he was a child.*
***Her:*** *Don't believe that. My parents even witnessed that he can see before. They are wealthy, but his parents are so rude that a lot of people dislike them. He only spends money on cigarettes and gambling.*
So when I got home, I told my Father about what my bestfriend said, and my father responded calmly,*" We already did our part to help him, and it's his part to use it for good. Although we heard many bad comments about him, but as long as he didn't do bad things to us, we still need to treat him right."*
My father was correct, but I couldn't deny that my trust and sympathy for the old man were fading. There's also a time when he asks for money, I only give him 10php because my parents are not there; I don't have money to give. But when I lend him the money, he says, *"there's no more bigger than this?"* Yes, he can feel the amount of money. Then I find out that he has an older sister who supports him, as well as the Barangay, so I'm really confused about where he spent the money.
A Boy with Different Disabilities.
Our area is divided into 13 Purok, and we are on Purok 2. My younger brother went to Purok 10 for a basketball game a few months ago, when he saw a boy about 12 years old asking for money. The boy he saw was the same boy who asked for money in every sari-sari store in our neighborhood. My younger brother and our neighbors had a conversation with him; but this time the boy couldn't speak, acting like a mute.
My younger brother and his friends approached the boy and asked, "You can talk, right?" However, the boy simply shakes his head side to side. One of their friends commented, *"that's his technique, in our place he can't walk properly."*
**If there are people who act with disabilities for money, there are also people who took advantage of his disabilities for money.**
*I know we all have different perspectives on this, but I personally do not approve of this type of behavior.*
*Everyone has problems, failures, and insecurities; no one is perfect. However, it should not motivate us to act irresponsibly. It's all about mindset, and how you take care of yourself physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually*.

The Giants and the Dwarfs
*One month to go before the celebration of Halloween. If you have read most of my articles, it talks about horror and mysteries. Gonna tell you ahead that I'm fun with this genre, hope you still bear with me.*
*For todays article, I would like to share about giants and dwarfs. This two entity are opposite to each other, which I prefer to share as one.*
***But first, let me Flex to you my sponsors, one of those persons who guide and support me throughout my journey here. You guys can check them too:)***
________________________
The Giants
*I was inside our house when everyone outside start to panic. I already have the feeling that it was because of the giants, so I immediately run to the bathroom; to hide. Our bathroom was located near our dirty kitchen. So everytime I go to the bathroom I need to pass this dirty kitchen, which have a door leading to our backyard.*
*I run fast, but in my surprise the giant was already in our backyard peering inside our house. I got terried, and my feet lost it's strength. I cannot move my feet, feels like a jelly; cannot run. I look on my side and there's another Giant, I want to shout but I cannot.*
*Until I awoke with a fearful feeling*
Years ago when I had a dream about Giants. I know this dream was not about encountering Giants in real life, but about encountering a more bigger challenges in life. By God's will I was able to conquer it.
I first discovered about Giant, when I heard a story about it. It was all about the giant who helped people to pass the sea; he sit on the mountain and put his leg on the other side, serve as the bridge for the people.
Next was based the story of David and Goliath. Of course, this is a well-known story, but for those who don't know or have forgotten about it.
This is a story from the Bible, found in the Old Testament in Samuel chapter 17. In this chapter, you will read about a giant Philistine named Goliath, who was 6 cubits or 11.35 feet tall and was defeated by a young shepherd named David in a single combat.
Most conspiracy videos, particularly those on Tiktok, refer to people from the Old Testament as "giants." I begin by watching a short video of Lot's wife, who transforms into a pillar of salt. This was found near the *Dead Sea on Mount Sodom in Israel*, and it was believed that people in the Old Testament are giants.
To end about giants let me leave this photo for you.
The Dwarfs
Have you seen the animated film SnowWhite? You'll meet the 7 dwarfs here. If you've read most stories about dwarfs, you'll notice that one of their major characteristics was being a mountain/underground/treasure guardian.
My father shared this story about his younger brother when they are kids.
*According to him, my uncle was walking alone, when he heard someone calling him. He was searching where the voice came from until he saw dwarf beside a big tree where there's a termite mound or punso in Filipino. The dwarf tell him "come here, I will give you the number for lottery "*
Do you know what he did? He run so fast; shouting.
We are already millionaire is he didn't run (lol!). But most dwarfs are in form of black magic, so what he did is good.
**To add more.**
I think I was in grade three when this happened.
*I go in my room and sit on my bed, I already have the sense that there is something behind me, so I turn my head, and saw a little hand, reaching my bed. Just like what my uncle did, I run fast but keep it as a secret to my parents.*
Until now I always tell to myself that it's a dwarf.

________________________
A day to share
***5. If you were guaranteed the answer to one question what would it be?***
I'm a bit confused about this actually, because it only said 'to answer' not 'to grant'. I don't want to waste one chance of asking question with a 50% possibility of saying no.
So I will go with. **'Does mermaids do exist?'**
***10. Who makes you laugh more than anyone.***
**My dad and younger brother**
I will go with this two men in my life because they are most joker person that I'm with most of the time. I easily laugh and it's hard for me to stop when I get started, even when they just said *"don't laugh!"*, I will burst out laughing.
***15. How many times a day do you look in the mirror?***
**Once as minimum twice as the maximum.**
Maybe if I don't really care on my face, I would not look in the mirror.
***20. What makes you feel supported?***
**When a person accompany me.**
It is okay if you can't give money, it is okay if you can't give inspirational advises, it is okay if you can't shout to cheer me; just be with me.
There are cases that my Dependent Personality comes out, and everytime there is someone accompany me, I felt relieved and supported.
***25. What makes you feel safe?***
**When I'm in my room.**
Home is the safest place for me, but to be particular in my room. For sure a many will agree on this, it's not a surprise; room is our shell.
***30. What's bad habit you have?***
**Sleeping late at night.**
I observed that I'm getting a hard time sleeping early at night because of using phone. I even can't reached 8 hours of sleep which we must have.
But still I'm trying to avoid this one now.
***35. If you had a clone, what would you have the clone do?***
**Do my online class.**
My daily routine would be more easier with the help of my clone doing online classes. It's okay; I will answer all the assignments, activities, quiz and exam. All she need to do is to listen our discussion and answer some questions if needed, and the most important one is to say *"yes Ma'am"*
*Are you still there class?*
"Yes Ma'am "
*Understand?*
"Yes Ma'am"
***40. When are you most yourself?***
**When I'm in my room**
Since room is the most safest place for me, as I've mentioned above, I was able to show the real me; the most of myself.
***45. What's the best sound in the world?***
**Song of praises to God**
The best among the rest, nothing to compare than this. But if you want to have a particular sound except this, then I will go with the sound of the **sea waves.**
***50. Who has been the biggest influence on you in your relationship to money?***
**Myself**
I have a BIG DREAMS, that's why I am really particular with the money. My parents used to give me their wages to manage expenses. If they need some money, they will just ask me; and yes I am the Banker in our home.
*I don't have more explanations about my answer but I hope you gain something about me. This challenge seems like that I am answering personality test, and the result will based on how you react on this:D*

My Very Elusive Mr. Jazz Sat under the 9 Planets.
*Is this line familiar to you?* ***My very elusive Mr. Jazz sat under the 9 planets****.*
*If not, let me give the hidden word for each one. My(Mercury) very(Venus) elusive(Earth) Mr.(Mars) just(Jupiter) sat(Saturn) under(Uranus) the 9(Neptune) planets(Pluto).*
*This was from my father, who said that if I forgot the names of the nine planets, I can use this as a guide to remember, but I actually prefer to sing the song of the nine planets because it is much easier for me.*
*I am an a Astrophile, a person who loves stars and/or astronomy; One of the reason why I love night. But we live in the city and there's a lot of streetlights the reason that I cannot clearly see it except having power outage, everything was dark and you can clearly see the stars as the glitters in the sky.*

At The Planetarium
Have you been in a planetarium?
When our nearby school held a planetarium event, I was in sixth grade. So our adviser invites all of us to attend, but we must purchase a ticket for $2. I was excited to hear this announcement, so when I got home, I immediately told my parents; similarly, my younger brother's adviser invited them to join as well. Then my parents agreed, but on the condition that they will accompany us.
It was already the day of the planetarium event, and we are all very excited. It begins with a brief overview of what to do and how the event will go. Next is the orientation, we went to a classroom where they catered us by batch and began to discuss basic astronomy concepts. After the discussion, the next stop would be the large balloon-like structure into which we would enter inside. It looks like an igloo or a snow hut, and there is a big fan blowing inside to keep it in shape.
We are all inside, and there is one facilitator who serves as the astronaut, he told us to fasten our seatbelts because we're about to leave the planet. We all sit on the floor and fold our arms, as if we were wearing seat belts. They turned on the projector, and we can now see and feel ourselves inside the space shuttle. Until one of the students farted inside; imagine we were all gathered and the air was just circulating inside, then someone farted. What makes it even funnier is when one of the students shouted, *"Climate change!"* But we didn't Dare to laugh without covering our mouth; because you know what might happen.
In the afternoon, we use the telescope to observe planets such as Mars and Venus, as well as the moon at night; and yes, for those selenophiles out there, the moon looks more stunning in close up.
*This was my favorite event experience in school. Although I only went to this once, but it was enjoyable and memorable. If you love astronomy, I recommend you to include going to a planetarium on your bucket list.*
Wishing
Have you ever tried to make a wish in a star? Or in the form of a shooting star?
Astronomy teaches us that a shooting star is a meteor or a piece of rock that burns and glows as a result of its speed, high temperature, and dust; then we can see it as a wishing star.
There was a story that our Filipino teacher teach us during my high school. I had forgotten the title and even the whole story, except for the line that always remain in my mind.
*If you want to make a wish, look for the smallest star that you can see. Look at the star and make a silent wish. Close your eyes for a moment and as you open, believe that it will happen.*
As the smallest star means the farthest one. And the farthest one means the more closer to God. The more it closer to God, the more possibility that it will tell to God what you wish for.
**And a big chance that what your wish will come true.**

The Story of an Angel in Disguise
I don't know if most parents now a days still teach their kids about Guardian Angels, but when I was a kid, my parents used to tell me about them. At that age I am not only afraid to do bad things because my parents might scold me, but because I'm shy that my Guardian Angel can see me doing bad things.
There aren't many stories about angels compared to horror stories, but my uncle once told me a story about an angel. I am not sure if this was based on real life or just one of the stories he heard. But before I forgot all about it, let me share you the story.
***But first, let me Flex to you my sponsors, one of those persons who guide and support me throughout my journey here. You guys can check them too:)***

Angel in Disguise
There was a rich man who are looking for a maid. Until one day, there is a girl who came into there house and asked if she can work. The rich man asked where she came from but she only said "I live in far place, and just came here to find some job". The rich man was a kind person and accept the girl immediately. He have a lot of workers, but she only let the girl manage inside their house, as from the start the girl already get the trust of the rich man's family.
The rich man was amazed on her first day of work when the girl cleaned everything inside their big house, early in the morning. When he looked outside, he saw that the girl had already begun sweeping the dry leaves in their large backyard. The rich man asked the girl how she did it, and she explained that she got up early and cleaned everything.
After a week, the girl was still doing the same thing: cleaning everything before the rich man's family woke up. So the rich man decided to get up early and secretly observe how the girl cleans everything so quick. He woke up at dawn and secretly went outside to see what the girl was doing. The girl was not inside the house, so the he went into the backyard thinking that the girl was there. When he was close to the backyard, he heard noise of sweeping stickbrooms; seems like many people are sweeping dry leaves.
He looked behind their house in secret, but there was nothing but the girl sweeping alone. He became curious about the girl's true identity, that he continues to ask about the girls personal life but the girl responds as an ordinary girl living a simple life, hoping to find work for her family.
One day the girl did not came out of her room , everyone in their house became concerned about what had happened to her. They knocked on her door and asked if she was fine, but she only told them that she was not feeling well. They gave her food, but she didn't eat any of it except the water. Days had passed and the girl was still not leaving her room, so the rich man forced to open the door. Everyone was shocked to see that there was a lot of water in the room's wall falling from their ceiling.
They were terrified, but the girl told them that it was holy water. She asked the rich man to spread the news that she can cure illnesses. The rich man command his workers to spread it, and as a result, a large number of people came to them for healing. The girl healed everyone with the holy water until she asked the rich man to build her a church. The rich man immediately gave what she asked, and after a few weeks the small church was built.
Everything is going so well, and the girl was still healing people. Then one day, the girl asked the rich man if she could go back to their house because her parents were worried about her, but she will be back. The rich man agreed and offered to deliver her to her parents' house. However, the girl declined, and told him that she will only commute.
On the day that she is going to leave, the rich man accompanied her to the highway, where she could take a jeep to the bus terminal. They are on the opposite side of the highway, and the girl needs to pass to the next side where there are vehicles going on her way. She said goodbye and start to walk passing the highway, then there was a car pass on his sight, just for a seconds he saw that the girl was gone. He looks around but saw nothing.
And that's the last time he saw the girl, the girl that he keeps on telling an **Angel** from the start.

Dream is Power
*If we look at the scientific side of dreams, it would tell that it was the result of our imagination in the outside world. For example: In the morning, your parents or friends tell you that you are going to Disneyland, then you will be excited. You keep thinking about how it will go, what to wear, what to bring, and even having trouble sleeping due to excitement. Then, as you sleep, you get into a dream about being in Disneyland, having some fun.*
*Even though we are sleeping, our nervous system is still active, which is the result of having a dream. That's for the scientific explanation; what about the spiritual meaning behind it?*
*We have this belief that when you had a bad dream, you should tell it to others. Don't keep it to yourself as that bad dream may grow. Tell it to others, how it goes in your dream, so that the bad luck in your dream will cast away*
***Let me Flex to you my sponsors, one of those persons who guide and support me throughout my journey here. You guys can check them too:)***

Strange one
Since before, I always write all of my dreams that pique my interest, I have searched every meaning and detail about it and tried to comprehend it based on my personal life. I have written it down in my note pad and notebook, and have some observation on how my life goes on. Perhaps this is why my parents, some friends, and even my mother's coworker contact me whenever they have a strange dream. I am not expert about interpreting dreams, and I even not familiar about the symbols behind it. But my knowledge grew as a result of my curiosity; I kept reading and searching for information about it on Google, with the help of prayers as well.
By God's grace, all of my dreams have been about positivity or a great opportunity coming my way, and it has all happened in my real world. Until two days ago, when I had this strange dream.
*There was a symposium, and we gathered in the gymnasium until a man wearing a masskara appeared in the center of the theatre stage, and he began to move his head side by side in front of the audience. My best friend and I are seated in the upper corner of the gymnasium, where we can clearly see what's going on below.*
*Then, when one of the audience's babies began to convulse, everyone in the gym witnessed how the baby turned pale white and peed with blood. Everyone begins to panic until the rats become infected with the virus (yes it was started like hypnotizing until like a virus that spread around). It began to infect others inside the gymnasium. One of the students seated next to us stood up and grabbed something to block the stairs. But it was too late; an infected one was already behind us, his skin decayed like a zombie's. He first called a lady, then my best friend, and finally me. My bestfriend hold my hand, and I felt the warmth of her hand.*
Why I also share this one was because it bothered me. When I awoke, I immediately said a prayer and picked my phone to see what does it mean, but there was none. Except for the one, which stated that it is normal to have such a dream because of pandemic.
We have an extraordinary mind, so I always say to myself that when I can still remember my dream when I woke up, it's important; try to find the meaning behind it. If I forgot what my dreams was all about when I woke up; don't be bothered of remembering it, it's not important. Our minds have a tendency to filter out unnecessary information; if you forget what it is, our minds want to communicate that it is not worth to remember.
Astral Projection
Astral projection is an intentional out of the body experience when you are asleep. If you are not familiar with this you can read the article She Will Die too, Please Help Her !! - My First Astral Projection!! written by @Theblackdoll , she also states here how she experienced astral projection. https://read.cash/@Theblackdoll/she-will-die-too-please-help-her-my-first-astral-projection-d08c69e1
Last year my younger brother read post about astral projection, and on how you can practice it. According to him, you need to ask someone to write words or sentence in strip of paper. Remember not to look or ask the person what he/she wrote on the paper, then hide it in a box or any place where you can hide it. At night before you sleep, always think where you hide the paper, until you fall asleep. When you are already on your dream world, remember about the strip of paper, try to open it while you are in your dream and read what is written on it. Once you woke up, open the strip of paper and read it. If your dream have the same with what is in the paper, then you have the ability to do it.
**Take note!** This is not recommended to do. Keep on learning before engaging. Not everyone has the ability to control it, it takes time but make sure to always keep in touch with the prayer in everything you do.

He Has Captured My Heart
*Do you believe in love at first sight? Maybe same won't agree on this, as for them love takes time. But on the other hand, some may agree because they personally experience this thing.*
*I was in high school when I first had a crush, and I'm not sure if this was too late because I've noticed that most kids (yes, kids) nowadays have a crush at a very young age. Now I see that it's not just the technology that's changing, but also the way we feel.*
*And now, for today's article, I'd like to share how I came up with my first crush. I'm not sure if you're interested in this, but please bear with me. Hugs!*

When I First Saw Him
We used to visit our relatives every weekend when I was in elementary and high school. My cousins have a lot of fun watching cartoons, which irritates their parents. They are unable to do housework or concentrate on what they eat because their eyes are constantly fixed on television.
On another Sunday, we went to see our relatives, and as usual, I saw my cousins in front of the television, watching an animated movie. I personally enjoy animated or cartoon movies than real people; perhaps I inherit this trait from my father because at his age he still enjoy watching cartoons as well.
So I sat by their side and asked what they were watching, and then they replied, *"Rise of the Guardians."*
I don't know if you guys have seen it but if not let me share you this one. Here are the characteristics of that animated film.
In here you can see Santa Claus, Sandman, Jack Frost, Pitch Black, Toothiana, E. Aster Bunnymund; respectively. It was Christmas season that time so most movies are like this. As I look at the tv, I first saw Santa and he really looks good on the movie not the usual fugure Santa that we saw, next was Toothiana, the tooth fairy.
I saw Jack Frost all of a sudden, and it was love at first sight. He has captured my heart. *(Lol! Yeah, I'm attracted to this animated character, but he was so handsome. Is he?)* I'm not sure how I got this feeling, but I'm sure a lot of people will agree with me, especially those who read wattpad or fictional stories. Most ladies prefer to fall in love with fictional characters in books because they have the characteristics that most girls desire in a partner. Even k-pop or k-drama fans, look how in love they are with those personalities who don't even know they exist, but as long as they feel love just by looking at them, it will mean a lot.
I've become a fan of Jack Frost, and my friends are aware of my feelings for him. We had GC at the time, and my nickname was *'karibal ni Elsa,'* which means 'Elsa's enemy'. Elsa is a character in the animated film Frozen. If you are not familiar with Frozen, you may be familiar with these lyrics.
*Let it go, let it go*
*Can't hold it back anymore*
*Let it go, let it go*
*Turn away and slam the door*
**- Let It Go by Idina Menzel**
Because they share the same ability which is to create and control ice and snow, most cartoonists create them as a pair.
Eventually, Jack Frost became an inspiration to me, despite the fact that he was a fictional character. I'm not easily attracted to boys, even ones with good looks, but he got me from the moment I saw him on TV. Yes, he is not real, but one thing is certain: **he has captured my heart.**

Vampires : Do they Exist?
*Most of us learned about vampires by watching animated films or reading fictional novels. As the well-known head vampire in Transylvania, we came across the name 'Dracula.' By him, we can visualize or describe on how a vampire looks.*
*Aside from that, vampires were known for being human or paranormal entity figures of bats. Just like a bat that can see at night, vampires have this ability too; just like bat who can live for 30 years, vampires can live longer through drinking blood; and just like a bath who hibernate in caves, vampires do sleep so long in the coffin.*
*But does it really exist? Or it was just a result of imagination? To build your interest, I'd like to share another story about my father's real-life experience (yeah, my father who have a lot of experiences).*
***But first, let me Flex to you my sponsors, one of those persons who guide and support me throughout my journey here. You guys can check them too:)***
________________________
Vampires : Do they Exist?
During the 1990s, my father worked as a salesperson for a soap manufacturing company. As a sales boy, he was also tasked with accompanying their company driver to various malls and stores in the area to deliver the soaps.
One day; another day of work, they are tasked to bring packages of soap in the far area. They ride a delivery truck which have the packages of soap at the back. They are just enjoying the ride and keep on talking until they reach the mall at 10 am. After the transactions, they go back to truck and ride again to bring other packages in other stores.
It was 12 p.m. when they arrived at a quiet road. There are no houses, only a field on the outskirts. It was also hot at the time, but they ignored it and enjoyed the ride. While driving down the road, my father notices a person standing on the right side of the road(same side where he is in the front seat) ahead of them. My father was wondering why this man was standing alone in the middle of nowhere under the heat of the sun. When they got closer, my father noticed that he was wearing a long black cloak and was staring on the other side of the road.
The truck speeds up, while my father keeps his gaze on the man until they reach him and make an eye contact.
His eyes were as red as a laser, and he had sharp, pointed canine teeth. My father's heart began to race and became speechless by what he saw. "*A vampire*," he thought to himself as he looked at the driver, who was.
They reached in their company without telling anyone what he saw.
Three days later, they hear on the news that there is a vampire that was roaming in their area. He immediately told his coworkers that he saw it in the Pasig City area, but they didn't believe him and said that it was impossible and what he saw is just an illusion.

Remains in our Heart
*We have a lot of celebrations like wedding, birthdays, fiesta, and many other yearly tradition that we enjoy. Among these celebrations, Christmas is my top favorite and since I want to save my stories about Christmas for December, I will go for my second on the list which is the* ***Halloween****.*
*Yes, as a typical Filipino we celebrate Halloween, not with a trick or treat but with a family gathering. How I spent it? Let me first share you first some of our beliefs during the day of burial*.
***Let me Flex to you my sponsors, one of those persons who guide and support me throughout my journey here. You guys can check them too:)***
________________________
Burial : Beliefs and Tradition
Years ago when my grandfather died due to cancer(*May God Bless his soul*), and everyone filled with pain because of that. He was a strict father but a very kind and loving grandfather. I know it is God's will to let him rest; a blessings in disguise.
Every one of us **wears white** on the day of burial as a sign of peace. We relatives must pass under his coffin before delivering him to the cemetery. Those men carrying the coffin raise it higher, and everyone begins to pass beneath it. **There is no turning back**; once you have passed, you should not look back. I remember my aunt holds my head so I don't look back when it's my turn to pass.
The next stop will be the church, where a mass must be held to bless and pray for the soul of my grandfather. This is also the location where his children will speak in front of all of his relatives about his life in this world. Everyone must then form a line to shower him with holy water after. The final stop is at the cemetery. There was still a short prayer, and then a time to place flowers above his coffin before they will bury it. This is what the elders told us: **don't let your tears fall into the coffin**. I don't know what is the reason behind this, but we prefer to follow it.
I wasn't in the mood to eat bread at the time, so I hid mine in my shoulder bag until my mother noticed it and told me to bring it out and eat it. I asked her why, and she said, *"It's for respect, and it's already dirty when you bring it home."* **Food prepared for the cemetery should not be brought home**; it should be left or done in the cemetery. Finally, before we go home, we this. what we call "pa-usok," in which we start a fire and then extinguish it to create smoke through which we must pass and step out. There is no going back; once you are done, you should not return.
Halloween Celebration
Most Filipinos celebrate Halloween between the last week of October up to the second day of November. In our family, we go to the cemetery every November 1 or 2, which is *All Saint's day* and *All Soul's day* respectively.
This is our second-biggest gathering, where all of our relatives go to the cemetery. There are layco/laity (are church members who can preside bible study and conduct property blessings; such as house blessings) who you can easily approach to conduct a short prayer for your loved ones. After the short prayer, we have some goods for my grandfather.
The first is the **flower**, which is the most common gift for loved ones. At the cemetery, you don't have to worry about this because when this event occurred, there were many vendors available. Since we have a lot of flowers, it's me and my mother who prepare it at home. Next was the **food**; we always give a small amount of food. But always remember to open it so that the souls of your loved ones can smell and taste the aroma of the food. We put some **drinks**(an alcoholic drink), because my grandfather used to drink when was with us. So my grandmother always brought some for him. After this, we will all gather at my grandmother's house and cook different foods, that aside for gathering again, it's my cousin's birthday also.
When we got home at night, we made an altar with candles and foods for my mom's parents, who died when she was young. We put a candle in each door of our house, a belief that it will light their path as they enter.
**All these things are done to respect and pray for their souls; that will** ****always remains in our heart****

Checkmate : The Revenge
*Have you been a victim of bullying? How do you handle the situation? Did you put up a fight?*
*Bullying is common in schools, and I had experience it once in my life. And in today's article, I like to share how I deal with it.*
***But first, let me Flex to you my sponsors, one of those persons who guide and support me throughout my journey here. You guys can check them too:)***
________________________
Checkmate : The Revenge
I was in fifth grade when I met this lesbian sixth grade student at our school. We were in the canteen when she asked what my name was. I told her my first and last name, and when she heard that my last name begins with 'Pec,' she burst out laughing and said, *"peka - peka,"* while doing the chicken dance. I was so embarrassed by what she did, and because there were other students present at the time, I did nothing but to cry. When I got home, I told my mother right away, but she only said *"What's the problem? It's true that our surname begins with that."*
I feel so bad, when instead of comforting me my mother simply said that. I felt pain in my heart everytime I saw that student. And that become often because I'm an active student in our school and I always see her whenever I need to go in their classroom. After a year, she graduated from elementary, which is a relieved for me because I no longer see her. Although the high school campus is just across the street, I am happy without her.
There was an event in our school and we were tasked to present an intermission number. One Sunday, I went in our school to have a dance practice, also with my father who was the only purpose is to deliver me at school. We are already on the gate, when my father notice that there's an event in our covered court. He told me to go practice in our classroom while he went to the court, as he was curious what was going on there. Actually, there are a lot of people in our court, not just students but also adults.
When we finished practicing at 12 p.m., I went into the court to look for my father. When I saw him, he offered me something to eat for lunch because I had a game at 1 p.m. I was perplexed and asked him what was going on, to which he replied *"There's a chess tournament going on! I put your name on the list, and you'll be playing chess at 1 p.m "* Imagine my father did not ask me if I wanted it or not; he simply wrote my name on the list. I'd like to refuse because I've never played in a chess tournament and only know the basic moves of the piece. But my father is superior, so I couldn't say no.
1 pm already and the game is about to begin, we're all seated at the table, but we still don't know who our opponent is. It was an open game, and anyone could participate in the tournament. In my first game, I play against a man who is about 30 years old and was once a grandmaster. I play with him using the basic moves that I know, and ofcourse I lose the game.
The game ended at 5 p.m. and we were about to leave, when one of the organizers/chess coaches approached us. He asked my father to let me join their team because the man I played with on the first game recommended me to be one of their students. My father was overjoyed when coaches saw potential in me. My father agreed, and wherein my chess journey began. In the morning, my Mathematics teacher told me to stay after dismissal every afternoon to practice chess. It became my routine until I graduated from elementary school as one of the year's top chess players.
My chess training ended when I entered high school, but I still continued to compete in school chess tournaments. It was during our intramurals that I and one other boy from another section were chosen to represent our batch. Of course, I need to beat my other batchmate who knows how to play chess in order to be deserving of representing our year level. By God's will, I win.
During the intramurals' day, all chess players gathered in one classroom. All table, including the chess board and chess mat above were ready.All are fixed and players begin to enter the room, when I saw that lesbian who verbally and emotionally bullied me years ago. It was a round robin game at first, then going to be win-win and lose-lose, so there's a big chance that we have our game.
Then it happened. There are only four of us left, and we're aiming to be in the top three players before the championship. I still don't like looking at her face because I remember what she did. We shake hands and begin the game. She was smiling and moving unnecessarily, which irritated me, so I took out my keypad phone and play games while playing chess with her. There is no teacher at that time, so we can eat and use our phones while playing; only a scout was looking for us at that time. She get angry when one of the players teased her, saying, *"Ohh, a grade seven get bored on you."* At the time, everyone was laughing at her.
Finally, I win the game and said, ***"Checkmate!"***
It causes her for having no chance in championship. Everyone starts laughing at her again, wherein a newbie and much younger defeat her so easily. When I became the champion, she became even more agitated, and from that day I haven't seen her anymore.

Good Tree will always bear a Good Fruit
Earlier I was reading some article, until I got a notification from @Marinov 's new post, if you want to read it, then you can see it here https://read.cash/@Marinov/dont-raise-a-tiger-if-you-want-a-sheep-33dc0702
It was all about how parents must raise their children, and the realities of how some parents tolerate their child. I am not yet in the parenting stage, but I agree with what she said. I can relate to it, but not personally because God is so good to provide us with parents who discipline us as well, but I can relate it to my bestfriend's experience.
***But first, let me Flex to you my sponsors, one of those persons who guide and support me throughout my journey here. You guys can check them too:)***
________________________
My best friend has a boyfriend who is very nice to her. Their relationship, however, became toxic over time. She visit me, and even came in smiling from behind, but as soon as she walked through our door, she burst into tears.
She is always talking about her relationship status and how her boyfriend has cheated on her numerous times. Another thing that broke my heart was how her boyfriend's mother treated her. She was mistreated, and only show kindness to her when she have something to give, like money. Her boyfriend's mother even spread rumors about her, claiming that my bestfriend was cheating on her son, which is untrue. She tolerates his son and always defends him without knowing the truth.
I always tell my bestfriend *"break up with him!"*
If before, I could always see something to defend their relationship and advise her to keep going because it is a part of a relationship, but now I can't. Her boyfriend's family has deteriorated, so there is no reason for her to cling to it just because they have come so far. She must prioritize her freedom and self-care. And she did it; she ended her relationship with the boy and felt free.
But life was full of trials, she found out that she was pregnant by her ex. It causes him to experience depression, but she was strong, and God is so good for her to be able to overcome it. Now that she has given birth, the boy keeps running after her through chat. Imagine their house is not that far from my bestfriend but he don't have the respect and guts to face them. But it's too late; my bestfriend refused his proposal because she doesn't have feelings for him. She doesn't see her ex as a father figure, and she risks having a bad life if she lives with the boy's family, especially with the mother.
My best friend expected to live a peaceful life, but the boy keeps spreading rumors about her. He keeps posting status claiming that my best friend is hiding the baby when, in fact, they are not. It's the boy who went far to escape his responsibilities.
While her ex boyfriend was ruining her life on social media. The back-up, who is the boy's mother, was also spreading rumors among their neighbors. She even stated that my bestfriend's family behaves as if they are wealthy despite the fact that they are not. And my best friend admits that they are not wealthy, but it never pushed to them to beg for money. They are not wealthy in terms of money, but they are wealthy in terms of love and discipline. And that is what they intend to demonstrate to her child.
As of now, my best friend was fine and contented taking care of his 6-month-old baby with the help of her family. The boy was still not providing financial or moral assistance. They had the right to complain and question him about it, but they didn't. Her family dislikes conflict and prefers a peaceful life. And I do support her morally, as I said to her "*it is better to raise your child with your family, than to be in a wrong company. It was still not a broken family, because they don't make you feel like family from the start."*
*In this experience, parents have a significant influence on how their child grows.*
*In the side of my bestfriend's ex-boyfriend. He has a mother who allows him to do bad things. But how can she teach good things to his son if she doesn't know how to handle herself too?*
*While in my bestfriend's side, I can feel the goodness in them. I see it in how her parents treat me when I visit them, or simply when we pass each other on the street. They treat me as their daughter, and I feel their respect, even though it's my obligation because they're like parents to me.*
*Lastly, all I can say was,* ***A good tree will always bear a good Fruit.***

Lost by a Black Lady
*Are you familiar with the paranormal entity,* ***Black Lady****? Like a white lady with long hair, a long white gown, and a blurry or scary face, a black lady has these physical characteristics as well, but the only difference is that the black lady was obviously dressed in black.*
*It was a belief that this entity was more dangerous and didn't usually show up, unlike the white lady. The most common thing that they do is to lead people astray.* ***That if a person get lost without any reason, then it was made by a black lady.***
*To know more about this, let me share you another story.*
***But first, let me Flex to you my sponsors, one of those persons who guide and support me throughout my journey here. You guys can check them too:)***
________________________
Lost by a Black Lady
It was during my highschool when my father went to a birthday party of his close friend. He became tipsy and decided to return home. Going home, he was perplexed that he was driving on the same road for many times. He, and even us are familiar with the area, so it is unlikely that he had get lost. He returned to the same road for the last time, until he noticed a woman in a long gown was behind him. He can't tell how it looks because it's already night and dark. But he was sure that there is something weird happening.
The place have a lot of big trees, the reason why I personally don't want to go home late from the city, as we need to pass this road. Many stories was told that there are a lot of paranormal entity in this place.
My father remember, what old people would always advice if someone got into trouble like this. So he immediately did it and finally arrived home safe. When he got home, he was so upset saying why we didn't pray for him, that the black lady teased him. My mother simply ignore what he said because she was already angry that time, why he returned home drunk, so she just replied *"you deserve it!"*
In the morning, I asked my father about what happened to him last night. And as he remember, he was keeping in the same road many times, even though he go to the right way. He was still ended in the same spot, where there is a lot of Balete trees. What he did, is he take off his shirt, and turn it inside-out. Just by doing this, he back on his sanity and realized that he was already in the subdivision part on the place.
***To add more, would you believe that I have already seen five different colors of a lady?***
If I'm not mistaken, this happened when I was in third grade. During this time, my ability to sense and see paranormal entities was stronger, leading me to regard our home as the scariest place I had ever experience.
It was already late at night, possibly past midnight, and everyone was fast asleep. I'm not sure what woke me up, but the first thing I saw when I opened my eyes were these five ladies in various colors: red, pink, green, while I can't remember what the other two colors are. During this time, we have only one bed room with two different King-size beds; one for my parents and one for me and my sibling.
Despite the fact that the lights were turned off inside, the strike of post light outside allowed me to see what was going on inside our room.
I was shocked by what I saw, and I even stared at them for a few seconds before covering my head with my blanket. As I recall, they're rotating in my parents' bed, and I'm pretty sure that they are staring at my father. They are spirits with no clothing or faces just like a shadow, but I know they are girls because of their body structures and hair.
Good thing is that they did not harm my parents, but it took me 6-7 years before I decided to tell this to my parents. And even now I can still remember how it happened, except on the colors of those ladies that are already fading in my mind.

________________________
The Questions and my Answers Portion
How would your ideal day begin?
**Learning a yoga class**
Opening my bible and doing my short prayer would be my ideal day to start, but since it isn't one of the options, I'd rather answer 'Learning a yoga class,' because after doing my short prayer, I usually do some stretching. This goes a long way toward helping me start my day on a positive note. I recommend stretching in the morning and at night before going to bed; it also helps me to relieve stress.
What is your favorite place to escape in nature?
**The beach**
I remember when we visit my grandmother's house in Kiamba, Sarangani, during the Christmas season 13 years ago. It was near the seashore that which excited us, especially me and my cousins. At night, we enjoy watching fishermen removing fishes from their nets. There are various types of fish, crabs, and even corals. There are crickets to be heard, as well as stories from elders and neighbors. There's no need for you to set an alarm for morning because you can be awakened by the sounds of the waves, which is something I really miss about staying on the beach.
When do you feel most fulfilled?
**When I'm taking care the people that I love**
I want everyone to feel safe and loved, especially those who are very important to me. I'm breaking more every time I see others in pain, and it's even more painful when it's me.
How would your friends describe you?
**The leader at the pack**
Perhaps my friends describe me in this way because I've been a consistent class and club officer since we were in elementary school. I was elected as class president, vice president, secretary, treasurer, business manager, and muse. *Lol!* Speaking of muse, having a lot of friends who are boys is advantageous, especially when they are your classmates, as was the case with me; they vote for me despite the fact that I am not that beautiful.
What's your favorite food?
**Pizza**
Actually any chocolate, but since it is not in the options then I chose pizza. I enjoy pizza as well, and my favorite flavors are those with a lot of cheese. I'm not sure why I'm so fond of cheese these days.
What's your favorite color?
**Red**
Nothing, I'm just attracted on this color. Next was black and white.
What's your zodiac sun sign?
**Aries**
I was born in the month of Aries, and trully adore this zodiac sign. I enjoy watching videos online about the characteristics it possesses. Thankfully, only one of the videos I have watched does not correspond to me.
What type of book would you be most likely to pick up off the shelf?
**A collection of poetry**
I enjoy reading science books, particularly those about astronomy and biology. But, since it is not in the option again, I will go with poetry. I enjoy this book as well, and I have read many literary works; however, my English vocabulary isn't that good, so I don't read it on a regular basis.
Where in the world do you most want to visit?
**Tokyo**
I chose Tokyo among the choices, because I want to visit Japan soon. I was astounded on how advance their technology is, and on how discipline their people is. I also want to experience their climate and food, same thing about Korea. In God's will, I will able to visit there with my family.

In Other World
*Since I've enjoyed telling stories about mythical creatures. I am going to have this article to share another story which is a real experience of my father's neighbor in the former place where the live. In this story we are going to enter the* ***world of encantos****. You read it right, this man enter their domain and interacted with these extraordinary creatures.*
*For those who are unfamiliar with encanto/s. This is a well-known Philippines Mythology creature that can take the form of a human being despite being a spirit. Others claim that elves, mermaids, white ladies, and other mythical creatures are all encantos; the only difference is the type. But, for me, they are distinct from one another; I've heard and seen some of them, and I can say that they have differences, not encanto as one.*
*I don't know if you are excited or confused? But matter what, let's get started.*

In Other World
The province is the most common location for strange happenings. When my father and his family moved to the province when he was a teenager. This story happened to one of their neighbors.
Their next-door neighbor Pedro (*I'll just use the penname Pedro because my father used to use this name when telling funny stories*) has fallen in love with a beautiful woman in their place. He was attracted to the girl because of how charming she is, despite the fact that he hasn't spoken to her and is simply watching her pass by.
He approaches the girl one day, and to cut a long story short, they become close. Pedro tells the girl what he truly feels after a long time of friendship. He confesses his true feelings, and the girl accepts his love.
The girl became more kind and loving to Pedro, and told him that he needed to meet his father. So Pedro agreed to accompany the girl on that particular day. They walked for a while until he noticed a car. He was initially hesitant to accompany the girl because he discovered she was wealthy. He doesn't want to meet the father because he sees him as nothing but a poor boy. But Pedro has no idea why his body compelled him to leave.
They travel until they reach a place that is only vaguely familiar to him. He asked where they are, and the girl told him that they are going to meet his father. When they finally arrived, Pedro was astounded by how big the girl's house is, it was like a mansion as he described. They walk in, and he meets his father. The father accepts him wholeheartedly, but he has a question for him *"I have two daughters, and both of them adore you. You only need to select one."* Obviously Pedro choose the girl who bring him. At last, the father warns him to take care of his daughter as a wife, but never to engage in lovemaking.
Pedro agreed to live there with the girl's family because he loves the girl. They also have a business that help them financially, so he became preoccupied with assisting his girlfriend in running their business. Pedro was living happily there until he made a mistake. As a human; a boy, he does what the girl's father forbids.
The girl's father discovers it and punishes him by forbidding him from seeing his daughter.
He filled with sadness, and by the father's word he returned in front of their house just like how a portal works in movie. His mother saw him first and hugged him tightly. She had been wondering where Pedro had been for years, but Pedro became perplexed because he felt that he had only been there for weeks. He told everything to his mother until they concluded that he was attracted to an encanto; he also remembered having money in his pocket, but when he got it, it was only the leaves of a tree.
*In this story I learned that not all encantos are bad, they even know how to love and give respect just to follow thier rule. And also that they are living like an ordinary human, living in an ordinary place, not creepy nor magical.*

This is my most favorite part of my room because this is where I write, draw and color. I am fun of doing art, not really good at it as I am having lack of time in improving myself. I also don't have materials for now because just like make up and other products, art materials have also expiration. So some of my art materials have expired already, while some don't have ink anymore. I love books, and luckily, we have a lot of them in our house, but I only keep three of them in my room because they are the ones I read the most. These are the titles of the book : **Human Biology**, **The Pearl**, and **English - Tagalog Dictionary**. If you read my first article, LI, you already know that I enjoy science subjects; even though I cannot use them entirely in my course, I still make time to read them. Next The Pearl is a mini literary book that was published as an official student publication of Holy Trinity College in 2015. This book contains a variety of literary genres written by various students from the aforementioned school. This encourages me to write before I meet with read.cash. Lastly, is the English - Tagalong Dictionary. I am not fluent in English, but I'm doing my best to learn with the help of this dictionary. I enjoy reading different literary works in English, and this one helps me understand the story better.
Corner 2
The side for my bed. I only have a simple bed made of wood, to which we added a single size bed mattress to make me more comfortable. I keep my rosary and two small Bibles in here: the New Testament English version and the New Testament Filipino version. If you enjoy reading, then the Bible is the best book for you. It is not only about love, but also about knowledge and wisdom, some actions, magic, and more. The All in one book.
Corner 3
The empty space. I say empty space because there is nothing there but a plain wood wall in my room. This is a slightly creepy side of my room because I used to wake up at 3 a.m. and see white light on this side. There is no light that can enter my room, even if we say street light, because the color of street light is yellow, whereas the light in my room is purely white. Actually, I'm not completely terrified of it; I used to see and feel like this, but I'm not at ease with it.
Corner four
The clothes area. Seems like I have a lot of clothes but nothing, just where we place our clothes, together with the clothes of my younger brother. As of now I, I have more unused clothes than used clothes. Why? Because I get fat lol! It's so hard especially when you don't have that extra money to buy clothes. But soon I can through the help of bch in noise.cash and read.cash, I'll claim it!
*Perhaps introverts will agree that our room is the safest and most peaceful place of all. Traveling to different places is one of my goals, but since I can't do it right now, I prefer to stay at home, away from bad and judgmental people*.
As ***"There's no place like home, to be particular like your own room."***
