Is this normal that the article that I had published today doesn't have EXC ? Please enlighten me. I'm not active here for past days. Hehehe. Thank You.
Am I Blind? Hello Fellas! Yas..Happy Tuesday to all. I'm back now. Sorry, I am busy for this past days trying to adjust my class schedule. How's your day? I will read your articles later. I already miss writing and reading at the same time. This morning, a question come up to my mind "Am I Blind?" . If I'm blind, how could I write? hahaha. Hmmmm. Actually, I can say that to myself because, sometimes, what we see or belief is not the truth or reality. We are become blinds in terms of something that we wanted or believe. We have many questions that bothered to our mind. Do you know the story **"The Blind Men and the Elephant"? .** This story was given by our teacher. Try to read this and reflect. **The Blind Men and the Elephant** by: Srila Bhaktisuddhant Sarasvati Thakur Long ago six old men lived in a village in India. Each was born blind. The other villagers loved the old men and kept them away from harm. Since the blind men could not see the world for themselves, they had to imagine many of its wonders. They listened carefully to the stories told by travelers to learn what they could about life outside the village. The men were curious about many of the stories they heard, but they were most curious about elephants. They were told that elephants could trample forests, carry huge burdens, and frighten young and old with their loud trumpet calls. But they also knew that the Rajah's daughter rode an elephant when she traveled in her father's kingdom. Would the Rajah let his daughter get near such a dangerous creature? The old men argued day and night about elephants. "An elephant must be a powerful giant," claimed the first blind man. He had heard stories about elephants being used to clear forests and build roads. "No, you must be wrong," argued the second blind man. "An elephant must be graceful and gentle if a princess is to ride on its back." "You're wrong! I have heard that an elephant can pierce a man's heart with its terrible horn," said the third blind man. "Please," said the fourth blind man. "You are all mistaken. An elephant is nothing more than a large sort of cow. You know how people exaggerate." "I am sure that an elephant is something magical," said the fifth blind man. "That would explain why the Rajah's daughter can travel safely throughout the kingdom." "I don't believe elephants exist at all," declared the sixth blind man. "I think we are the victims of a cruel joke." Finally, the villagers grew tired of all the arguments, and they arranged for the curious men to visit the palace of the Rajah to learn the truth about elephants. A young boy from their village was selected to guide the blind men on their journey. The smallest man put his hand on the boy's shoulder. The second blind man put his hand on his friend's shoulder, and so on until all six men were ready to walk safely behind the boy who would lead them to the Rajah's magnificent palace. When the blind men reached the palace, they were greeted by an old friend from their village who worked as a gardener on the palace grounds. Their friend led them to the courtyard. There stood an elephant. The blind men stepped forward to touch the creature that was the subject of so many arguments. The first blind man reached out and touched the side of the huge animal. "An elephant is smooth and solid like a wall!" he declared. "It must be very powerful." The second blind man put his hand on the elephant's limber trunk. "An elephant is like a giant snake," he announced. The third blind man felt the elephant's pointed tusk. "I was right," he decided. "This creature is as sharp and deadly as a spear." The fourth blind man touched one of the elephant's four legs. "What we have here," he said, "is an extremely large cow." The fifth blind man felt the elephant's giant ear. "I believe an elephant is like a huge fan or maybe a magic carpet that can fly over mountains and treetops," he said. The sixth blind man gave a tug on the elephant's coarse tail. "Why, this is nothing more than a piece of old rope. Dangerous, indeed," he scoffed. The gardener led his friends to the shade of a tree. "Sit here and rest for the long journey home," he said. "I will bring you some water to drink." While they waited, the six blind men talked about the elephant. "An elephant is like a wall," said the first blind man. "Surely we can finally agree on that." "A wall? An elephant is a giant snake!" answered the second blind man. "It's a spear, I tell you," insisted the third blind man. "I'm certain it's a giant cow," said the fourth blind man. "Magic carpet. There's no doubt," said the fifth blind man. "Don't you see?" pleaded the sixth blind man. "Someone used a rope to trick us." Their argument continued and their shouts grew louder and louder. "Wall!" "Snake!" "Spear!" "Cow!" "Carpet!" "Rope!" "Stop shouting!" called a very angry voice. It was the Rajah, awakened from his nap by the noisy argument. "How can each of you be so certain you are right?" asked the ruler. The six blind men considered the question. And then, knowing the Rajah to be a very wise man, they decided to say nothing at all. "The elephant is a very large animal," said the Rajah kindly. "Each man touched only one part. Perhaps if you put the parts together, you will see the truth. Now, let me finish my nap in peace." When their friend returned to the garden with the cool water, the six men rested quietly in the shade, thinking about the Rajah's advice. "He is right," said the first blind man. "To learn the truth, we must put all the parts together. Let's discuss this on the journey home." The first blind man put his hand on the shoulder of the young boy who would guide them home. The second blind man put a hand on his friend's shoulder, and so on until all six men were ready to travel together. **What have you learned there? Is there any reflection or realization out from the story?** (Comment it later) In my own understanding, from the story above. It is just like a Philosophy. Do you know what is Philosophy? It has something to do in asking or seeking the truth. It is the ability to separate truth from error and reality from illusion. All of us have different views and beliefs in life. Correct me if I'm wrong. Sometimes, we become blind on what we see or what we believed. Right? Love of wisdom is a person who love philosophy, a person who want to know the reality or the truth. It was seeking a knowledge from all things the way it really was as the things appears to be. In the story, the blind men trying to know the truth about elephant, so in their way to Rajah who knows about this animal, they tried to guess the appearance of the elephant by holding each one of the body parts of the elephant. In our life or day-to-day experiences, the love of wisdom is the truth that we earned because, we are awash in a sea of knowledge. Sometimes, we just believed in one sided observation of what we see. We are told every day what we want, what we need, and what we do. When Rajah said that**, "Each man touched only one part. Perhaps if you put the parts together, you will see the truth”.** Just like in Philosophy, we need to seek deeper to know the truth. Sometimes, we asked ourselves, our parents, classmates and friends about their knowledge about a certain thing or questions. Or even today, in our group projects, we discuss and put all the ideas of each other. Because**, “to learn the truth, we must put all the parts together”**. In our life, not all we know are the truth. Not all we believe are reality. But, we are seeking and seeking the truth behind the blindness that we have. We become blind and take a risk. *Minsan, kahit nasa harapan na natin ang sagot, pero nabubulag pa din tayo.* Now.... **What area makes you blind? What are the things you always asked to yourself? What are the things you wanted to know?** Thank you for reading my article. Cheer me up na di tamarin. hehehe. Wala kasing nag momotivate. Charot. @Lunah


F4? (Me and the 4 boys) Let me share this story to you. Do you have boy bestfriends? Because, I have boy bestfriends before. I'm a kind'a boyish but, I'm a girl. hehehe. Don't you know? I must prefer to make friends with the boys before. Lol. It's just a short story(I guess?) so please read this until the end. Charoot. May Part 2 pa pala neto.hehehe. I know if you have boy best friends, you can relate this one. Actually, I met them when I enter in Guitar Workshop. Yes, I do play guitar because, I love music. Music becomes my passion and it shapes me of being who I am. :) . So yeah, as you can read from my previous articles, I said it there that I have a smart boy friend (not literally the jowa) which is my classmate. But now, I don't know where he is. You can read my previous article about my Highschool Love by clicking this links: Link 1: https://read.cash/@Lunah/my-highschool-love-a88cb412 Link 2: https://read.cash/@Lunah/my-highchool-love-part-2-f3401a63 Anyway, back to the topic. This 4 (fours boys) are my classmates since Grade 7. But, I never talk to them before, just because I'm not good in socializing. But, when I entered or joined the Guitar Workshop. I met them. Since, they are the only persons that I know. I don't have a chance to fit in to them. Because, I believe in the saying that, ***"No man is an Island".*** Do you believe also to that phrase? (Just Comment your thoughts) In all the boys in our room. The 4(four) of them is the most funniest, kind and the best group of friends I observed. Actually, they are friends since Grade 7. We can't deny that in our classroom. It was divided into the group of friends. Am I right? Hehehe. During workshop, we tend to talk each other, practicing, eat together, hang out and many more. It was the time during summer. Hehehe. They accept me and respect me as their friends. Not until, we have a group name which is the ***"Potatoe Squads".*** I don't why this our group name. Hahaha. But, I love it.. We took this picture during our Retreat. Our friendship are strong. I didn't think negative about them. We are happy and treat each other as siblings. Sometimes, my classmates called us **F4.** Hahaha. Just because, I am the only girl and I have 4 boy bestfriends. But, we are just a normal squad. During that time, nabuo ang **F4** sa room namin. Hahaha. Kahit nga friend na kami nun ng crush ko na matalino sa klase. Pero, hindi talaga siya nakikisabay sa akin. (I will explain it sa Part 2). **Common Questions that they asked to me:** **What is the feeling of having a boy bestfriends who treat you as a queen?** You know, I feel shy sometimes. When someone will said that I am lucky enough for having them. And also, they are lucky for having me. Hahaha. Palagi nga kaming nag-aasaran na lima eh. But, you know the feeling of having a friends just like them are **worth to treasure.** I feel happy and lucky at the same time. Basta, whenever I'm with them. I feel safe and happy lalo na pag sabay kaming kumain na lima. I remember the times na naghahatian pa kami ng mga baon namin. Tapos yung isa is tagabayad ng mga bayarin sa room. Hahaha. **How do you know that you are safe with them?** You know, when you're surrounded by a negative persons you will sometimes embarassed. Anyway, so how I know that I am safe with them? **First, friendship is not all about happiness,** minsan magtatampuhan, away at bati. You will know na safe ka sa kanila or they are good enough. When the times na may problema ka, may problema ang isa't-isa, yung hindi ka iniiwanan sa tuwing walang-wala ka na, sa tuwing napakalaki ng problema mo, sa tuwing may kamalian kang ginawa ngunit pinaparangalan ka nila na dapat wag na yung ulitin and so on. Basta ganun. You will feel the loved and presence from them whenever you need them Kasi, syempre always kayong magkasama. :)Ganurn. Continuation tomorrow..... In the part 2 of this article. I will share to you about their different attitudes. :) And it will be the last part. :) ***Do you have boy bestfriends also? (Comment nemen jen)*** Thank you for reading. :) Kung may mga katanungan pa po kayo . Feel free to comment. :) @Lunah


Ang Swimming Pool sa Villa Hotel(2) **Ikalawang Yugto***: (Isang trahedyang hindi mabura-bura sa isipan naming lahat na nandoon, lalo na sa kanilang dalawa ng aking kapatid)* **Unang Yugto:** https://read.cash/@Lunah/ang-swimming-pool-sa-villa-hotel-c224de7c Kami ay nasa Villa Hotel na. Medjo creepy nga ang hotel. Doon kami sa ilalim dahil doon ang venue. Malapit sa swimming pool. Ang swimming pool ay punong-puno ng mga balloons at mga lights sa ilalim na parang inaakit kami na maligo. Kapag tingnan namin ang swimming pool, parang napakababaw lamang. Nagmasid-masid lang muna kami sa paligid at sa mga taong naroroon. Pagtapak ng isang lalake doon sa swimming pool, ay taga tuhod niya lamang. Kaya, kami ay namangha dahil hindi talaga malalim ang tubig. Kaya, pagkalipas ng ilang oras ay naligo na lang din ang lalake kong kapatid. At oo nga, hanggang tuhod niya lang ang babaw ng tubig. Sumunod din naman ang kapatid ko na babae. Kumpaynsa naman kami dahil, hindi malalim ang tubig. Gusto ko din maligo ngunit parang nagdadalawang-isip ako. Hindi dahil sa takot ako sa tubig kundi takot ako sa sinabi ni mama tungkol sa swimming pool rito. Nagtataka din kami nila mama na bakit hindi malalim ang tubig?.. Baka siguro, binabaan nila upang wala nang trahedyang mangyayari pa. Nasa gilid-gilid lamang ang dalawa kong kapatid hinahabol-habol ang mga balloons sa gilid . Pagkaraan ng ilang minuto ay nawala sa isipan namin ang dalawa kong kapatid. Raffle time na ata yun. At biglang natawag ang aking kapatid na lalaki. Nabunot ang kaniyang pangalan sa raffle. Kaya, tinawag ito ngunit wala sila sa gilid namin. Agad naman sumigaw si guard. ***"Hala! ang bata ang bata!!!!"*** Agad namang lumingon kami kay guard na malapit sa swimming pool habang tinuturo ang dalawa kong kapatid na nag-aagaw buhay sa gitna sa tubig. Kami ay nataranta at umiiyak iyak na kami nila mama. Habang lumukso ang lahat ng mga tatay doon upang e rescue ang aking mga kapatid. Ngunit, pati silang lahat ay unti-unting lumulubog. Parang hinigop silang lahat. Kaya, kumuha ang mga tao doon o naghanap ng lubid dahil hindi lang ang aking mga kapatid ang nalulubog kundi lahat ng mga tatay na naroroon sa gitna ng swimming pool. Hinihigop daw kasi silang lahat pailalim tapos hindi sila makatapak sa parang tiles ng swimming pool. Napakalalim pala ng swimming pool na yun. Ilang minuto din bago lahat ay naka ahon sa tubig. Ang swimming pool ay parang kawali na plain lang sa gilid at nasa tuhod lang ang tubig. Pero, sa gitna ay parang kawali o butas papailalim. Ngayon lang talaga kaming lahat nakakita ng ganung swimming pool. Sa gitna ay may malaking butas. Kung hindi natawag ang pangalan ng aking kapatid na lalake at kung hindi yun nakita ni guard. Eh, wala na sila ngayon. Grabeh ang trahedyang nangyari doon. Ang swimming pool ay parang may nakatira talaga na hindi nakikita na gustong kumuha ng buhay ng tao. Kaya, minsan, hindi na kami naliligo sa mga swimming pool na pinupuntahan namin. Tanging kumakain lang kami at nag pipicture. Dahil, hindi namin alam na baka may malaking butas nanaman sa gitna ng swimming pool. Actually, parang bowl siya na kahit anong balik mo paitaas ay mahuhulog ka talaga sa ilalim. Kahit nga mga tatay eh, hindi nila na kayang bumalik o umahon kaagad sa tubig dahil nga napakalalim ng swimming pool. Kitang-kita ko talaga kung paano lumukso ang aking tatay at ang lahat ng mga ka office mate niya patalon sa tubig para lang maagapan ang dalawa kong kapatid. Kahit hanggang ngayon, kahit malalaki na kami. Lalo na yung dalawa kong kapatid. Ay hindi pa rin nila mawala sa isipan ang trahedyang iyon. Parang natatakot na sila at parang di makapaniwala. **Ang dating mababaw na swimming pool ay may nakatagong patibong sa gitna nito.** Kaya, mga tagasubaybay ko. Wag na wag niyo talagang iwan ang mga anak niyo kahit napakababaw pa ng tubig sa swimming pool. Dahil, hindi natin alam ang mga lugar na pinupuntahan natin. Salamat sa inyong pagbabasa. Hanggang sa susunod muli. Mag-ingat parati. @Lunah


Ang Swimming Pool sa Villa Hotel Panibagong storya na naman tayo mga kababayan. Ito ay nahahati sa dalawang yugto o storya. Halina't subaybayan natin ang unang yugto ng kababalaghan sa Swimming Pool sa Villa Hotel na hango sa totoong buhay at karanasan. Ngunit bago ang lahat, muli na naman akong nagpapasalamat sa aking mga tagasubaybay, readers,subscribers, upvoters at lalong-lalo na sa aking mga sponsors. Kung nais niyo pang dumagdag sa sponsor list. Maraming pang bakante.Charoott.Hehehe. Nag-umpisa ang lahat noong kaming tatlo ay sinama nila mama at papa sa Villa Hotel (Hindi buong pangalan ng Hotel, para sa kanilang privacy). Mayroon kasing Christmas party sila papa sa kaniyang trabaho. Dati kasi may trabaho si papa ko sa isang office. Tuwing Christmas party ay nag cecelebrate sila kasama ang buong pamilya. At ang venue ay sa Hotel dahil walang budget pang beach. Mostly kasi sa dagat ang venue. Ako ay nasa Grade 9 pa lamang nun, samantalang ang dalawa kong maliliit na kapatid ay Grade 7 at Grade 5 pa lang. Bago kami umalis ng bahay ikinuwento muna nila mama at papa ang tungkol sa kababalaghan na nangyari sa Villa Hotel noon. Mayroon daw batang namatay doon sa Hotel. Hindi lang isa kundi maraming mga balita na may namamatay doon. Isang kwento ay tungkol sa anak ng guard sa Villa Hotel noon. One time daw kasi, dinala ng guard ang kaniyang maliliit na mg anak na babae sa kaniyang trabaho. Nasa 6 years old at 4 years old lamang sila. Habang naglalaro ang dalawang anak niya. Hindi niya namalayan na nawala na pala ito sa tabi niya. Huling kita niya rito ay nakipaglaro ang bunsong anak niya sa palaka. Hinabol-habol niya ang palaka. Hinayaan lamang daw niya ito dahil nasa tabi niya lamang ito. Ang panganang anak niya naman daw ay nakatingin lang sa kaniyang kapatid habang naglalaro. Pagkaraan ng ilang minuto pa ay, nawala na ang kaniyang dalawang anak na babae. Agad naman siyang tumakbo at hinanap ito. Wala raw tao doon sa labas ng hotel. Tanging sila lamang ng kaniyang mga anak. Malapad ang labas ng hotel. Kaya, inikot ikot niya pa ito. Hanggang nakarating siya sa bandang swimming pool. At narinig niya ang tinig ng kaniyang anak na umiiyak at tinatawag siya. Tumakbo siya paparoon. At bumungad ang kaniyang bunsong anak na palutang-lutang sa tubig at nawalan ng malay. Itinakbo naman ito kaagad sa hospital ngunit di na naagapan. Tinanong naman ng kaniyang tatay ang panganay na anak. Sinundan niya raw ito dahil biglang nawala ang kaniyang kapatid. Dahil sinundan ng kaniyang kapatid na bunso ang palaka. Hinatak niya ang kaniyang kapatid, ngunit di na niya ito mahatak pa. Sa murang edad, di naman natin masisi ang bata kung hindi siya kaagad bumalik sa kaniyang tatay upang humingi ng tulong dahil malayo ang swimming pool sa guard house. Paano din naka abot ang bata doon. Ayon sa sabi-sabi, maraming mga hindi nakikita na mga nilalang ang nakatira doon. Ang palaka ay isang engkanto at binilog lamang ang bata hanggang makarating sa swimming pool. Sabi ni mama, uupo lang daw kami at maghintay sa kaniyang command kung ano ang aming gagawin doon. **Pangalawang Yugto***: (Isang trahedyang di mabura bura sa isipan naming lahat na nandoon, lalo na sa kanilang dalawa)* Kami ay nasa Villa Hotel na. Medjo creepy nga ang hotel. Doon kami sa ilalim dahil doon ang venue. Malapit sa swimming pool. Ang swimming pool ay punong-puno ng mga balloons at mga lights sa ilalim na parang inaakit kami na maligo. Kapag tingnan namin ang swimming pool, parang napakababaw lamang. Nagmasid masid lang muna kami. Pagtapak ng isang lalake doon, ay taga tuhod niya lamang. Kaya, naligo na lang din ang lalake kong kapatid. At oo nga, hanggang tuhod lang ang babaw. Sumunod din ang kapatid ko na babae. Tatapusin ko bukas ang pangalawang yugto. Ito talaga ang di mabura bura sa isipan ng dalawa kong kapatid, pati ako, at halos lahat kami na nandoon. Pati mga tatay. Sana subaybayan niyo bukas. Salamat po sa pagbabasa. More Creepy Stories to write pa. Comment na lang sa magpa shoutout. Charottt. Hahaha. Feeling blogger. :D @Lunah

Usog ni Manong Boyet Ako ay maraming ikukwento sa inyo na mga kababalaghan. Uunahin ko munang sulatin ang ***"Usog ni Manong Boyet" .*** Kung ikaw ay nakatira sa probinsya. Alam mo kung ano ang ibig sabihin ng "usog". Salamat nga pala sa aking mga readers, upvoters and sa aking mga sponsors. Salamat po sa walang sawang pagsusuporta sa akin. Kung nais niyo pa pong magdagdag sa sponsor list. Beke nemen. hehehe. Charoott. Araw ng Linggo at araw ng pagsimba. Pagkatapos naming nagsimba ay umuwi muna kami ng bahay para kumain ng almusal. Bilang tagakanta sa mga event sa simbahan kagaya ng blessings, binyag at iba pa. Ay sinasama ako nila mama at ng iba pang church members namin. Sumama din yung pinsan ko na anak ni Aleng Rita. Pagpatak ng alas dyes ng umaga. Kami ay sumakay na ng tricycle papunta sa paroroonan namin. May kalayuan ito kaya medjo inaantok ako. Ganyan kasi ako pag babyahe, inaantok at parang dinuduyan. Pagkaraan ng ilang minuto ay nakarating na kami sa bahay na blessingan ng pastor. Ang aking pinsan ay 16 years old lamang pero mas matangkad pa sa akin. Awchhhh:( . Sa akin pinadala ang holy water na gagamitin sa pag blessing ng bahay. Napakatahimik ng lugar na pinuntahan namin. Halos kami lamang ang nagsasalita doon. Habang kami ay naglilibot-libot muna sa bandang likuran ng bahay. Nakita namin ang isang matanda na nagluluto ng pagkain. Bigla naman siyang tumingin sa amin. Kaya, dali-dali kaming bumalik doon sa mga matatanda na kasama namin. Tanging kami lamang ang mga bata na kasama nila. So, ayun na nga, binigyan na nila kami ng tig iisang kandila para maumpisahan na ang Blessing ng bahay. Bago nag-umpisa sa pagbabasa ang pastor ay kumanta muna kami ng "Come Holy Spirit", bilang entrance song at upang gabayan kami sa pag ble-blessing ng bahay. Pagkatapos nun ay nag sign of the cross na at nag-umpisa nang basahin ng pastor ang mga salita na nasa libro. Pagkatapos ng pagbabasa at sharing niya, iniabot ko ang Holy water sa pastor upang kami ay maglilibot na sa bahay para kaniyang talsikan ng holy water ang bawat sulok ng buong bahay. Habang kami naman ay hawak hawak ang kandila na sumusunod sa kaniya at binibigkas ang "Our Father, Hail Mary and Glory Be" . Pagkatapos nun ay kumanta na kami ng closing song. *Oras ng pag merienda:* Kami ay dinala ng may ari ng bahay sa kubo upang malamig ang simoy ng hangin. Kami naman ng aking pinsan ay nag picture picture doon sa kubo kasama ang mga matatanda. Habang kami ay kumakain na ng merienda na hinain ng tagbahay, biglang dumating ang lalake na nakita namin sa likod ng bahay kanina. Medjo nahihiya kami sa kaniya. Siya ay umupo sa upuan na tapat sa amin at biglang tinitigan ang aking pinsan. Itong aking pinsan naman ay biglang natitigan niya din ang lalake. At agad ko naman siyang hinawakan sa braso at binaling ang tingin sa akin. Bigla rin nagsalita ang lalake. *"Kamusta kayo mga iha?",* pagsasalita niya habang nakatitig pa din sa amin. Ang tanging sambit lamang namin ay ,"*mabuti naman po kami,hehehe"* ... Ngunit nakatitig lamang siya sa aking pinsan. At sinambit ang katagang, *napakaganda mo iha.* Sabay ngiti. Pagkaraan ng ilang minuto. Di na kami tumagal pa. Nagpaalam na kami at umuwi na din. Agad naman nagpasalamat kami sa kanila. Pagkarating namin sa bahay, biglang nagsuka si Faith ang aking pinsan. At basang basa sa pawis. Sumakit din ang tiyan niya at nahihilo. Agad naman namin siyang binanyusan ng lana at pinahinga. Naalala ko din yung nangyari kanina sa compliment ng lalake. At agad ko itong sinabi kay mama. Sabi ni mama, nausugan daw ni Manong Boyet si Faith. Malakas ang usog ni manong Boyet. Kaya, bumalik kami doon at pinapikil sa kaniya si Faith. Nilawayan din ang kaniyang tiyan. Umuwi na din kami at gumaan na din ang pakiramdam ni Faith. Note: Hindi lahat ng mga compliments na galing sa ibang tao ay nakakabuti sa atin. Kung tayo ay nakikipagsalamuha sa ibang tao, maging alerto. Minsan, malakas ang mga usog ng mga matatanda, kaya agad tayong naapektuhan sa kanilang mga komplemento sa atin. Para masumpa ang kanilang usog. Ugaliing sabihin ang "buyag-buyag" . Kapag sabihan ka ng, napakaganda mo naman iha or kahit ano pang mga komplemento na kanilang napansin sa iyo. Sabihin niyo, "buyag-buyag". One way din yan para miwasan ang usog o masumpa kaagad. Magdala rin ng luya sa bulsa. Ngunit di ko kayo mapipilit dahil iba iba ang ating paniniwala. Pero, kadalasan ito ang aming sinasabi. :) Nausugan ka na ba? Abangan niyo bukas ang aking bagong kwento. Salamat sa pagbabasa. Ingat parati. Tuwing gabi na lang talaga ako gumagawa at nagpa published ng mga articles dahil busy sa klase. Goodnight po. :) @Lunah


Positive and Negative Facts About Online Class This August is usually the month of our classes. I would like to share my thoughts about my experiences last year as an online learner student. When Covid-19 Pandemic strikes us the most, especially in our Educational system. Many students, teachers and parents are affected last year with the new normal. So, last year, though we don't have stabled internet connection and gadgets for online classes. But, I and my siblings go in through online learning. Online class is kind'a hard. Super hard, especially because, we don't have stabled internet connection, lack of gadgets for online classes and it is hard to reach out the teachers and classmates. So, my observation last year when we go on through online class are. ***POSITIVE***: ***We don't need to go in School*** One positive effect of Online Class is that, we don't need to go in school. I think, it is better because of our situation. And mostly, we can help ourselves to avoid the viruses by staying at home. ***We don't need to spend lots of money*** Since, we are online learner and we don't go to school. Mas nakakapagtipid tayo. In terms of tricycle fare, our baon, projects and other school payments. Lalo na sa mga activities like intramurals, nutrition month, and other school activities. Bumaba din ng small amount ang tuition . Bumaba kaya? O tumaas? Hahaha. Lol. ***We can accompany ourselves*** If we want to eat something, we can cook it in our house. Like, we can accompany ourselves because, we are in our comfort zone. Kung na C-CR tayo, we can immediately go in the comfort room in our own house. Also, mas nakaka-kain tayo ng mabuti. ***We can Google*** Since, we are online class learners. In terms of recitations tapos di natin alam. We can easily get an idea in the google or other online sources. To be honest, I do search in google to wider my knowledge about our lesson. Kasi minsan, hindi lahat na naibibigay sa power point is naiintindihan natin. We can use also different online tools to get an ideas. ***We can continue our learning*** As the Pandemic strikes us last year, the government decided to continue our Educational System either modular or online. This crisis is not the hindrance to stop learning. Because, as what they said. We can still learn in our house or by staying at home. I think that's all the positive sides that I observed. Mas safe din pag nasa bahay lang tayo. At mas na momonitor ng mga parents ang kanilang mga anak dahil nasa bahay lang. Anyway, this are the Negative facts of Online Learning: ***NEGATIVE***: ***Give us too much stress*** As a student, online class is very hard. It gives me a hardtime to adjust. Not only me, but all of us. In the new normal system, we need adjustment. It gives me stress in terms of internet connectivity, lack of gadgets, financial support, overloaded projects or paper works. ***Lack of Gadgets and Poor Internet Connection*** So before, we only used DATA as the source of internet. Napakagastos magpa load. So, my parents find a solution. They bought us a Home Globe Prepaid Wifi. Still, need magpa load. 200 pesos is equals to 8Gb, I think, (please correct me) in which good for 7 days. So every week, we need magpa load. Pero minsan, before 7 days ay nauubos kaagad dahil tatlo kami ang online. Super stress lalo na mag exam or mag recite. Dahil, pag tatawagin na ang name, hindi kaagad maka open ng microphone due to the poor internet connectivity. But, we are thankful that my parents find another way, because, hindi lang kami ang na i istress but also them. So, they borrowed money sa kakilala nila so that maka connect kami sa PLDT in which every month we need to pay. Okay naman din dahil medj stabled na ang internet connection. In ***term of gadgets,*** we don't have laptops . We used cellphones only. It is very hard to used cellphones especially when creating assignments, power point, projects and so on. Until now, we don't still buy laptop due to lack of financial. If ever I can earn an enough money here. I will buy laptop. Because, its really hard this second time of online classes without proper gadgets. ***Financialy unstabled*** Not all people have work. I mean proper or stabled work. We also have stress in terms of our tuitions and other basic needs. Lalo na ngayon dahil sa Pandemic. But, I know na God Will Provide. ***Overloaded Tasks/Lack of Sleeps*** Not all teachers are considerate. In our school, they give us overloaded tasks and sometimes we can't pass it in the deadlines. They always said that we need an adjustment. But, as what I can see in our school. We, the students are the only one who tried to adjust in this new normal. They do give us heavy tasks that leads us to lack of sleep, depression, physically unstabled and anxiety. Many students tries to reach them up and find a solution to lessen the task they given. But, hopefully, this School Year. The Online Class 2.0 will have a better effects and give us peace of mind in doing the tasks they given to us. ***Why we don't choose Modular or Offline Learner?*** You know, not all students have same intellegence. Not all students has the capacity to be independent. Even I know that we can be independent. Pero, mas nakaka stress kapag binabasa mo lang ang modules at answeran na hindi naman kaagad naiintindihan without teachers to guide you. In my point of view, mas mahirap ang modular which is self study. Hindi tayo makakapag interact sa iba. So, to all Modular and Online Students here. Laban lang! Padayon! This Pandemic is not the hindrance to continue our dreams. We don't need to waste our time to stay at home without learning something. Ang panahon ay napakabilis lumipas. As we pave towards our success, we need to be strong and face the reality. Kung minsan hindi tayo nakakapag recite or nakapag answer ng tama sa recitation. We don't need to be stressful dahil nga hindi lahat ng mga students ay pare-pareho ang pag-iisip or matalino. Sana, ngayon is matutong maging considerate ang mga teachers at intindihin ang sitwasyon ng mga students. Sa school nga namin, I will not mention the name of the school. Hehe. This year, I mean this School Year napaka konte na lang ang mga students na nag enrolled. Just because, they don't handle the students properly last year. Napaka strikto nila the way na maraming umalis na students pagka second semester at nag enroll sa ibang schools. Tapos napakalaki pa din ng tuition, at na include pa din ang mga laboratories, libraries, sports, computer lab and other fees. Maraming mga parents din ang nag rereklamo about this situation. But, I don't why they still include the other fees na hindi naman namin nagagamit. **And mostly, naka include din doon sa tuition namin ang 1k for wifi sa school. HAHAHA. In short, per student ay bumabayad ng 1,000 para sa wifi ng school na ginagamit ng mga teachers. Bale, kami pa yung bumbayad sa wifi fee nila. Which is very questionable(?) .** Anyway, without further chika chika. Hahaha. I will end this article. Hehehe. Thank you so much for reading. Payting! Student life! Laban! Padayon para sa pangarap or future career! Goodluck this School Year! @Lunah

I Killed a Snake in My Dream What is the sign when we dreamed about snake? What is the meaning when we killed a snake in our dream? Is it good or bad sign? So, hello everyone, I am here again. hehehe. I have another story to share. I want also to put your thoughts in the comment section about my dream. But, before that, I would like to say thank you for all my readers, upvoters and sponsors. I will always give thanks to all of you, especially kay bot or rusty. Thank you so much sa all! Last night, I had a dream. It was all about a black snake. In my dream, doon kami sa bahay ng lola ko sa bundok. Di ko alam parang mayroong party ata doon sa bahay nila lola kaya nandoon kaming lahat na magpipinsan. Habang ako ay naka upo sa upuan, habang tinitingnan ko ang aking mga pinsan at mga tita's tito. Napakasaya nila tingnan, dumating din si ate ko na galing sa Manila at yung asawa niya. Pumunta ako sa loob ng bahay ng aking lola. Habang nag-uusap kami ni lola ko. Biglang may nag panic doon sa labas ng bahay nila. Lumabas naman ako at bumungad sa aking mga mata ang isang maitim na ahas. Agad naman kaming lumabas ni lola at nagsitakbuhan papalayo ang aking mga pinsan. Ako ay kumuha ng pala at hinanap ito sa loob ng bahay ni lola ko. Hanggang ito ay lumabas ulit sa pintuan at aking tinadtad ng pala. Hindi ko alam kung bakit napaka strong ko or hindi ako natakot na tadtadin ito o lumapit sa ahas. Dahil, takot talaga ako sa ahas. Akala ko patay na ito, ngunit biglang nabuhay ulit. Agad agad ko namang tinadtadtad ng pala ang buong katawan nito hanggang sa mamatay. Ilang minuto ay napatay ko nga ang ahas. Hanggang doon lamang ang aking natandaan. Di ko na alam kung ano ang kasunod ng aking panaginip. Nung ako ay nagising, nag search kaagad ako sa google at nag tanong kay mama. Ngunit, bago ko ito sinalita o binigkas ang tungkol dito. Isinumpa ko muna ito sa pamamagitan ng pagkagat sa kahoy ng tatlong beses. Naniniwala kasi kami sa mga pamahiin kasi sa bukid kami nakatira.Hehehe Nag ask ako kay mama about sa dream ko. And she said na, ang snake daw sa panaginip ko ay tempation at problema. Bale, may dadating na temptation at problema pero kaya ko ito malampasan. Sabi ni mama. Manalangin at magtiwala lamang sa Diyos. Dahil walang magagawa ang mga masasamang nilalang kapag kapit na kapit ang ating paniniwala sa Panginoong Diyos. Nag search din ako sa internet. ***Meaning of killing a snake in dream?*** According sa Shriastrologer (2020). Killing a snake in a dream indicates **dealing with betrayal** and someone is doing something behind your back. It may also represent some potential and unwanted pregnancy. Killing snakes in a dream is a symbol of transformation. This would be a positive dream of emotional and spiritual growth. ***What does it mean when you dream about killing a black snake?*** When Dream Interpretation Of Killing A Black Snake is something that seems normal, this symbolizes that **the dreamer has a strong personality**. On a different side, it also develops into nightmares, and this is a sign of bad news in the future, this is also the temptation of bad energy around the dreamer.https://www.dreamchrist.com https://www.dreamchrist.com/ When I read the meaning of it. Parang same din sa pag interpret ni mama ko. At oo nga naman. Ang ahas ay simbolo kasi ng masamang nilalang. Always pray talaga at magpakatatag. Always naman ako naga pray before matulog nakasanayan ko na kasi. Pero, may mga bangungot pa din paminsan-minsan. Manalig lang talaga tayo sa Diyos. Hanggang dito lang po. Bukas naman ulit. Manalangin tayo before matulog at pagising sa umaga. God Bless Us All. Sana walang meaning na masama ang aking panaginip. Salamat po sa pagbabasa. Pwede din po kayong mag share sa mga thoughts niyo about killing a snake sa dream. salamat po ulit. :) @Lunah

Class Orientation(S.Y 2021-2022) Hello Good Evening. I just want to share something about my experiences or thoughts today, August 9,2021( Monday) before I will go to sleep. Hehehe. So, around 8AM in the Morning, we have our Class Orientation through Zoom. Last night, I alarmed my clock into 3 times. (6:00 Am, 6:30 Am and 7:00 AM) . HAHAHA. Actually, I did that everyday, because,I feel tired to wake up early. So, if it is already 6 o' clock in the morning, I will turn off the alarm and sleep again for 30 minutes. Hahaha. (Basta ganyan ako katamad gumising sa umaga). Anyway, during our class orientation. I just feel nervous and trying to calm my self. Because, everytime I faced in the camera or attend our class. I feel nervous. I don't know why? Maybe, because I don't have self-confident to face in front of people even it is virtual. Lol. To be honest, I feel shy to talk. I just want to write it. Mas feel ko kasi pag isulat ko lang. hahaha I belong in the first section and all of my classmates are very active and smart. Our teacher or adviser is half Pinoy and half Arab. But, he is fluent in Ilonggo. He is so kind and very approachable to us. I like how he entertained and welcome us as his new students in this School Year 2021-2022. He said that, Grades doesn't define our intelligent. It defines in our attitude. Even we are in the first section, it doesn't mean that we need to be pressure. Tama naman din siya. Hahaha. Actually, my old classmates are still my current classmates now. In short, madaming pabibo. Di talaga yan mawawala sa klase. Hahahaha. Our adviser discussed the class rules to us and the class schedules. After that, we have our first activity which is the Spin Wheel: Getting to know each other. According to Drake*, "Sometimes the more you get to know a person, the more attractive they become" .* I am looking forward for my classmates, because, some of them are not familiar to me. The game was started. After spinning the virtual wheel of names, the selected student will start to introduce himself/herself. He or she must start with an adjective using the first letter of his/her name, followed by age, intersting facts/truth about them and what they wanted to become someday. First spin, and guess what. Huhu. I am the first lucky one. Hahaha. I was shocked, that I will be the one who will introduce first in the class. Sometimes, when I am not ready at all. If what comes to my mind, I will tell it. But, I didn't emphasize or shorten it. Like, parang nag speech talaga ako. Huhu. Nakakahiya andami kong sinabi. And then, sa kasunod. Napaka shorten lang yung sinabi nila. Kung ano kasi lumalabas sa isip ko. Eh, lalabas din sa bibig ko. Hahaha. Medj nahiya talaga ako. Masaya naman ang unang araw ng pagkikita. Actually, halos lahat is napaka competitive. I will set goals siguro this School Year as graduating student. Syempre, e insert ko na din ang paggawa ng articles everyday. Dapat di ako ma pressure. I also stucked between modular or online learner. But, I prefer online learning so that, I could understand the flow of the topic. **To all students there..Laban lang! Napakabilis ng panahon. We don't need to waste it. Soon, magiging professionals din tayo sa course na kinuha natin. Sometimes, we tired, but, don't ever give up!** Bukas, b day ni ate ko. Yung asawa ng isa kong kuya. But, I have my class tomorrow, still 8 Am. I need to wake up early around 6AM and fix myself. Because, We need to travel to the house of the girl. Doon na lang din ako mag klase. Wala kasing dadala sa chocolate bounquet na ginawa namin ni kuya. Sana ol effort. Hahaha. Once again, thank you for reading. Thank you sa mga readers at sponsors ko. Kung gusto niyo pang dumagdag sa sponsor list ko. Pwede nemen. Charoottt. Mwapss. Dito na lang din ako mag chika chika. Wala naman akong mapagsabihan dahil wala naman akong kaibigan sa personal. Salamat po sa inyo. God Bless Us All. Jal-jayo! :) @Lunah

Gayuma (Part 3) I did not upload an article yesterday because, I attended a meeting. And also, I have my class tomorrow. First Day of Class. Huhu. So, I will continue writing about "Gayuma" which is the Part 3 of it and guess what. This is the last Part. If you haven't read the Part 1 and the Part 2 of it. You can read it by clicking this links... It was all written in Tagalog Language. Gayuma (Part 1): https://read.cash/@Lunah/gayuma-part-1-19e6ced2 Gayuma (Part 2): https://read.cash/@Lunah/gayuma-part-2-18e37a03 *Pagpapatuloy...... (Part 3- Last Part)* Pagkaraan ng ilang weeks. Nakita ni kuya ko na may kahalikang iba yung babae . Nandidiri na siya sa babae. Humahanap pa siya ng tamang pagkakataon para makalayas at maka-uwi dito sa Mindanao. Nahihirapan na din siyang mag contact sa amin. So, nakitawag siya sa kaniyang kakilala sa number ni mama. Na gagawan ko daw siya ng bagong fb account. Pero ibahin daw ang pangalan and e private ko daw ito dahil nga ang babae ang nag oopen sa acc ni kuya. Agad agad naman namin ginawan siya ng Fb account. Bale doon na kami nag uupdate sa kaniya. Nakiki gamit lang siya ng cellphone sa kakilala niya dahil ang Cellphone na binili niya. Yung oppo ay kinuha ng bwisit na babae na yun. Pasensya na. Galit lang talaga ako sa kaniya. So, ayun. Nagagalit na din kami kay kuya ko. Pero, nagpasya na siya na tatakas o lalayas na talaga. Nagplano siyang ilagay ang mga damit niya sa damuhan. Doon sa likod ng bahay nila. Para pag gabi na. Ready na siyang tumakas. Kaso, nga lang... Ang babae ay di talaga natutulog. Tutok na tutok sa cellphone, inaantok na din si kuya ko dahil madaling araw na. Kahit nagkukunwareng tulog siya. Eh, parang dinuduyan na din siya ng tulog. So palpak ang unang attempt. Doon sa trabahuan niya. Nagtawag si mama na e process niya ang ganito ganyan. Para maka uwi na siya dito. So, while palihim na nag proprocess siya ng mga requirements para makakuha ng ticket pauwi. Kahit, Lockdown pa yun, uuwi talaga siya. Naghiram hiram lang din siya ng pera sa mga kakilala niya doon sa trabaho. Dahil nga ang sweldo niya ay hakot award ng babae. Lol. Buti naman din na natauhan na siya. Kung di lang talaga yun nagamot ng albularyo. Baka, habang buhay na siya makukulong sa babae. Tsk. Tinulungan di siya ni ate ko na maka uwi kaagad. So, ayun, sabi ni ate ko. Na everyday daw habang nag proprocess siya para sa flight. Every punta niya sa trabaho. Dadala daw siya ng mga gamit niya. Tapos, mag stop by siya kay ate ko. Para iiwan yung mga gamit niya doon. Yun yung plano. Sa wakas, gumana nga. Di naman nagtaka ang babae kung saan na mga gamit niya. Hahaha. Cp kasi inaatupag. Feeling senorita. After a weeks, ok na ang lahat. Planado na ang pagtatakas. Ito na ang gabi ng pagtatakas ni kuya ko sa bwisit na buhay doon sa Manila dahil sa babae. Sabi ni kuya ko sa babae na bibili lang daw muna siya ng barbeque dahil nagugutom si kuya. Wala nang dala si kuya na gamit. Dahil, iniwan na niya doon ang mga gamit niya kay ate. Bale, umuwi siya na nakapambahay lang at walang dalang gamit galing opisina. Sabi kasi ni mama, wag daw iiwan ng kahit isang gamit doon. Baka daw may masamang gawin na naman ang babae. Di ko alam kung ano ang palusot ni kuya ko. Kung bakit di nagtaka ang babae na naka pambahay lang siya pauwi. Lol. Anyway, pinayagan naman siya ng babae na bumili. Pero, si kuya ko ay pumunta kay ate. Di na siya bumalik doon. Ilang araw na lang ay flight niya na. Ito namang babae ay, nagtataranta na nag chat kay mama. Sabi pa niya, "Tita, nawawala si Kent. Di na siya naka-uwi" chuchu. Dami pa siyang paandar. Takot lang siya na mawala ang magbibigay sa kaniya ng pera galing sa pagod at pawis ng kuya ko. Si mama naman, kunware nataranta. Hahaha. After a days, Nag tawag si kuya ko sa babae. Nagpaalam na siya. Like, wag na daw niya hanapin si kuya ko. Dahil, uuwi na daw siya. Nasa eroplano na daw siya nakasakay. Salamat daw sa pagmamahal chuchu. Hahaha. Pero, di pa nakauwi si kuya nun. Nag process pa siya sa pag resign niya sa trabaho before ang flight niya. Ang babae naman ay iyak na iyak. Pinipilit na tanggapin. Nag sorry din siya kay kuya ko. Basta naka uwi na si kuya ko dito this year lang month of April. And luckily, may trabaho na din si kuya ko dito. Navivideo call ang babae. Sinagot ito ni kuya ko one time lang. Sabi pa ng babae "Uwi ka na dito, nagpa rebond na ako". HAHAHA. tawang tawa ako. lol. Tapos pinatay kaagad ni kuya. Sabi ni kuya ko. Tatawag lang dahil lasing. Iba talaga ang ugali niya. Kahit una pa lang, ayaw ko na talaga siya. Nakuha naman ni kuya ko ang account niya. Change pass kaagad nung nakabili siya ng bagong phone dito. Basta, dami ding sinabi ni kuya ko. Nagpasalamat, nag sorry at nagbigay din ng lesson sa babae. Na sana magbago na daw yung girl. Na sana wag na niyang gawin yun sa iba. chuchu. Wala namang magagawa si kuya ko kung magagalit pa siya o kami. Dahil natapos na din yung kalbaryong buhay niya doon. Portante nakauwi na siya. So far, okay naman din ang buhay ng babae. Nakikita din namin sa myday niya na. Okay naman siya. Okay naman ang buhay niya. Naka realize na siguro at nagbago na. Lesson Learned: So, ang napulot kong mga lessons ay wag basta bastang tatanggap ng kahit anong pagkain o inumin na inialok sayo ng taong minsan mo lang nakasama o nakausap. Yung di mo pa talaga kilalang kilala. Di natin alam kung ano ang tunay nilang pagkatao. Wag ding basta bastang maniwala o mag trust sa iba. Baka sila pa ang mismong sisira ng buhay mo. Second, kung mahal man natin ang isang tao. Idaan natin ito sa tama. Dahil ang pagmamahal o paghuhubog ng loob sa isang tao ay hindi madali. Depende pa yan kung kaya ka niyang mahalin. Love takes time. Matutong maghintay. Kung di ka mahal, edi wag nang pilitin. Move on move on din pag may time. Charooottt. Hahaha. (marupok din pala ako) . Lalong lalo na, wag gayumahin ang tao. Parang nagpapakita lang ng isang simbolo na napakapangit ng ugali mo. Hahaha. Hanggang dito na lang. Dahil may klase pa ako bukas. Goodluck sa ating mga estudyante this School Year 2021-2022! Aja! Payting! Thank you for reading. God Bless Us All. Sana nagustuhan niyo po. hehehe. Sorry for the errors. :) @Lunah

Gayuma (Part 2) Hello. This is the part 2 of Gayuma. Salamat po sa mga aking mambabasa. Kung di mo pa nabasa ang Part 1 nito. Ito po ang link. https://read.cash/@Lunah/gayuma-part-1-19e6ced2 Sabi ng albularyo, ginayuma daw si kuya ko ng babae. Inilagay daw sa isang pepsi at ipina inom kay kuya kaya biglaang nabighani si kuya ko sa babae. At lahat daw na sinasabi ng babae sa kaniya ay sinusunod niya dahil sa gayuma. Nung nalaman naman namin ito, agad naman naming ikinagalit. Pero di kami muna nag rant sa babae. Hinayaan lang muna namin. Ang gayuma sa katawan ni kuya ko ay unti-unting mawawala lang daw kapag ang damit niya ay naisakay sa barko at naitawid ito. Bale, mula dito papunta doon o mula doon, papunta dito. Basta ganun. HAHAHA. Di ko ma explain ng mabuti. Bisaya man gud mi.Hehe So, kumpyansa naman kami dahil nga naitawid ito ng kuya ko na isa yung umuwi dito mula doon sa Manila. Nasabi ko ito sa part 1 . Kaya na albularyohan ang damit. Si ate ko naman na nandoon sa Manila ay nag-away sila ng babae. Grabeh talaga ang tulis ng dila ng babae. Tapos, nag chat si mama sa kaniya bakit daw ganun ginawa niya kay kuya. Pauwiin na lang sana niya si kuya ko. Kaso, sabi ng babae*. "Wala akong magagawa kung ayaw niyo sa akin, kahit di ko maintindihan pinagsasabi niyo pero na sesense ko na di niyo ako tanggap para sa anak niyo"* Naguguluhan kami sa babae. Pano namin siya magugustuhan kung ginawa niyang pulubi ang kuya ko at ginayuma niya pa ito para lang may magmahal sa kaniya. Lol. Sarap sabunutan. Kung mahal niya si kuya ko, sana di niya muna minadali ang tao. Kakatrabaho lang nga ni kuya ko doon. Paano siya agad magugustuhan kung napakasama naman ng ugali. Kaya siguro ginayuma niya na lang ito dahil wala sigurong nakakagusto sa kaniya. Sama kasi ng ugali kahit sa chat. grrrr. Nagplano-plano ang pamilya ko pati ang mga pinsan ko na close ni kuya na kumbinsihin si kuya ko na iwan niya na yung babae. Pero di pa din niya kayang iwan. Hanggang nagplano sila mama at papa na pumunta sa Manila, doon sa Cavite. Pinuntahan nila si kuya ko. Kahit malaki ang gastos nila at umutang pa. Para lang makita si kuya ko at makumbinsing umuwi. Pagdating naman doon, umiyak si mama dahil buto't balat na si kuya ko parang napabayaan na talaga. Trabaho doon trabaho dito para lang may maipakain sa pamilya ng babae. Na meet naman nila mama at papa ang pamilya ng babae. Mababait naman daw ito. Mabait lang siguro pag nakaharap. Syempre, inalokan sila ng makakain. Pero tumanggi sila mama at papa. Sabi nila nakakain na daw sila. Dahil baka may gamot na nilagay doon. (Huwag agad tatanggap ng pagkain sa mga taong di natin kilala o minsan lang nating nakasama) Kinausap nila si kuya ko in private na "Uwi ka na anak, miss ka na ng mga kapatid mo, miss ka na namin.".... Pero, sabi ni kuya na "Ok lang ako dito ma. Hahanap lang ako ng pagkakataon para tumakas. Wag na pala kayo mag chat sa account ko o sa number ko. Di ako nag momonitor ng mga message niyo. Gusto ko nang umuwi pero di ko pa kaya, sumasagi sa isipan ko siya na baka mapabayaan niya sarili niya". Everytime na naiisip ni kuya na umuwi dito sa Mindanao. Bigla namang may humaharang na mga bagay bagay sa isipan niya. Nabigla sila mama at papa dahil lahat ng mga messages na sinesend niya kay kuya gamit ang bisaya na language ay nababasa pala ito ng babae. Kaya nasabi ng babae na "kahit di ko maintindihan ang pinagsasabi niyo, alam kong di niyo ako gusto". Parang namulat na din si kuya ko sa katotohanan na nabilog lang siya dahil sa gayuma. Di tumagal, umalis na din sila mama . Bale 1 day lang doon sila. Wala naman silang budget para gumala o tumagal pa doon. Pagkaraan ng ilang weeks. Nakita ni kuya ko na may kahalikan na iba yung babae . Nandidiri na siya sa babae. Humahanap siya ng tamang pagkakataon para makalayas at maka-uwi dito sa Mindanao. Nahihirapan na din siyang mag contact sa amin. So, nakitawag siya sa kaniyang kakilala sa number ni mama. Na gagawan ko daw siya ng bagong fb account. Pero ibahin daw ang pangalan and e private ito dahil nga ang babae ang nag oopen sa acc ni kuya. Agad agad naman namin ginawan siya ng Fb account. Bale doon na kami nag uupdate sa kaniya. Nakiki gamit lang siya ng cellphone sa kakilala niya dahil ang Cellphone na binili niya. Yung oppo ay kinuha ng bwisit na babae na yun. Pasensya na. Galit lang talaga ako sa kaniya. Part 3? Bale ang part 3 is final part na yun. Kung paano nakatakas si kuya ko sa bwisit na buhay doon. Thank you for reading. Tanggap tanggap na lang sana na di tayo mahal ng tao. Chosss. Wag nating e gayuma. Lol. HAHAHA. Malaking kahihiyan yan sa sarili natin. Kung friends lang. Friends lang. Charoottt. HAHAHA @Lunah

My Highchool Love (Part 2) First of all. I would like to say "thank you" for those people who supported me everytime I published my articles. This is my 1 week in this platform. Though I have small viewers and supporters. But, I feel happy and motivated. Especially to my two sponsors. Thank You so much. This is the part 2 of "My Highchool Love". If you don't read the Part 1 of it. You can read that by clicking this link: https://read.cash/@Lunah/my-highschool-love-a88cb412 The Continuation: But, you know. Bumalik kami sa dati. Hinayaan namin ang mga chismis ng mga classmates namin. Sabay na kaming magstudy, kumain sa canteen, magkwentuhan sa field, gawa ng assignment and so on. Ang iniisip namin always is ang grades namin at kung paano ma maintain ang achievements namin. Not until, I fall inlove with him. Yes ! I fall inlove with him in a wrong time. I know nasa Grade 10 pa lang kami. Pero, I do keep it as a secret until now. He is my first love. And that's my Bestfriend Mico. Everyday mas napapalapit ang loob ko sa kaniya. Ikaw ba naman, di ka maiinlove sa taong nandyan sa iyo parati, tapos sobrang bait, may dedication, matalino, mas pinili ka na maging kaibigan at mag stick sa iyo. Hahaha. Di ko naman kasi inexpect na mas maging close kami. Lol. Sabi ko nga dibah? Na di talaga ako mahilig makipagsocialize. Pero pagdating sa kaniya or everytime na kasama ko siya. Feeling ko napaka happy ko na, nasa comfort zone ako. Basta ganun. Nung malapit na ang moving up namin. We planned together na dapat ganto ang bracket ng grades namin. No need na maging highest sa klase as long na nakaabot kaming dalawa sa passing score and pasado ang grades namin for finals. Always kaming magkasama, at maraming inggitera sa room namin. Naiinis ako na tuksuhin nila kaming dalawa dahil nakakahiya kaya kapag tinutuksu ka sa bestfriend mo. Dibah? Napapagkamalan kasi kami na lovers. Awsusss. Kung totoo sana bakit ko pa e dedeny. Charottt.Hahahaha. So ayun na nga. Final exam na. Ginawa namin ang best namin. Study doon, study dito.Hahaha. Napakasaya talaga. Super saya. After ng first exam, sabay kaagad mag review habang kumakain ng snacks. After exam is kakain sa labas ng pastel. Nakakamiss. He is the person na hindi ko talaga hiniling sa Diyos. Pero, I'm super duper thankful that he is part of mylife. We both moving up with honors and other awards. Our parents are super proud and happy to both of us.. But, when we become Grade 11. Everything changed due to lack of communication. I just feel shy when I talk to him. Also, he don't active anymore in social media. I tried to contact him and reach him out. But, he don't even seen my messages. Di ko na din alam kung saan na siya ngayon. Minsan, dumadaan ako sa bahay nila. Pero, always nakasara at mukhang walang tao. I really missed him so much. Oh, by the way, this is our picture. Tinabunan ko lang. Hahaha. Ommo. Kinikilig ako ngayon. Lol. Hahahaha. Na mimiss ko na talaga siya. I just wish na sana magkita kami ulit or magkaroon lang man ng communication. Kahit magparamdam lang siya sa akin. Huhu. Until now, I didn't tell to him na crush ko siya ganun. Kasi, I don't want to ruin our friendship. I wonder kung saan na siya ngayon. Sana okay lang siya. Sana, he's doing good pa din sa studies niya. I hope he's happy always. Sana di niya ako nakalimutan. Sana ganun pa din ang friendship namin. Message ko kay Mico... Hi Mico! Kamusta ka na kaya? Kung nandito ka lang sana. Eh mababasa mo to. Sana soon mahanap kita . Sana soon magkita tayong dalawa. Sana soon pag okay na ang lahat , magparamdam ka na sa akin. Sana di ka magbago. I miss you so much! I've been alone when you leave me. I feel alone nung nawala ka sa social media. I tried to reach you and stalked you if you have other social medias. Pero wala. Paano kita mahahanap? Nagplano pa tayo sa college life natin. Dibah? huhu. Praying for our success soon. I know na kaya mo ang lahat lahat dahil napaka strong mo! Sana malaman mo na Happy ako na nakilala kita. I thought tatagal ang friendship natin. Haystt. Sana soon, if magkita man tayo matatandaan mo pa ako. Salamat sa lahat lahat. I feel blessed and happy everytime I'm in your side before even at a short time. Missing the times na napakahappy tayo, na kahit anong problema ang dumating sa buhay natin. Eh, nalalampasan natin ito. God Bless Mico...I miss you! I miss you so much! -Lunah Thank you for reading. Naging emotional lang ang unnie niyo dahil kay Mico. hehe @Lunah


Gayuma (Part 1) Hi, I'm here again. For those people who wanted the Part 2 of "My Highschool Love" . I will publish it tomorrow. But, for now, I will share another story to all of you, it was based on the real life situation about my older brother experienced when he worked in Manila. We are from Mindanao, my sister will go to abroad to look for a job. But, when she arrived and stayed in Manila for a weeks. She immediately found a job. So, she will no longer needed to go abroad. My sister has been there for a few months. And she realize to send my two older brothers there to work as chefs in a Korean Restaurant. They are most welcome there. They had a good life when they were working at the Korean Restaurant. Their boss is kind and give them a proper treat. A few months later, there was a woman who fall inlove with my brother. Itatagalog ko na lang para mas madali at mas maintindihan niyo ng mabuti. HEHE. Ang babae ay isang taga-welcome sa mga customers doon. Co-worker din nila kuya ko. Di naman ito gusto ni kuya ko ang babae. Like, kahit lapit ng lapit ang babae sa kaniya. Eh, di talaga siya gusto ni kuya. Sabi nga ni kuya ko kay mama na naiinis siya sa babae doon. Dahil, di siya masyado maka focus sa kaniyang trabaho. Kasi, may mahal si kuya na iba. Ayaw kasi ni kuya ko na magkaroon ng girlfriend sa Manila. Mahal niya pa kasi ang ex niya way back 10 years. First love ni kuya ko since highschool pa lang sila. 9 years din si kuya ko na single. Hahaha. Pero hindi na ngayon. (Gawaan ko ito ng story about sa lovelife ni kuya ) After a months na naman. Nabalitaan namin na naging sila na ni kuya ko. Like, biglaan. Kaya nagalit si ate ko kay kuya dahil iba ang kutob ni ate sa babaeng naiganyo kay kuya. Napakatalim din ng dila ng babae kapag mag chat siya kay mama ko. Syempre, baguhan lang sila kuya doon kaya di nila alam ang mga tao doon. Hanggang, nawalan ng trabaho si kuya ko dahil sa lockdown. Yung isang kuya ko ay umuwi dahil di na niya kaya doon. Samantalang, ang kuya ko na isa ay mas piniling sumunod sa babae. Di na namin alam ang gagawin kung paano pipilitin si kuya ko na umuwi dito. Dahil, parang di na niya sinusunod si mama ko. Si ate ko naman na nandoon. Ay galit na galit na kay kuya lalo na sa babae. Kasi, simula na dumating ang babae sa buhay niya, nawalan siya ng trabaho at nag-away away ang aming pamilya. Ilang months na pagsasama nila kuya ko at nung babae. Ay parang umiba na ang landas ni kuya ko. Hingi lang siya ng hingi ng pera sa amin. Kami naman is abalang abala na sa kaniya. Di naman namin kaagad siya mabigyan ng pera dahil minsan, walang-wala din kami. Sabi ni mama ko maghanap siya ng trabaho doon. Sa awa ng Diyos nagkaroon siya ng trabaho sa isang mall. Doon sa bodega. Pero kahit may trabaho pa siya, di niya pa din kaya ang sarili niya na buhayin. Dahil, pati ang pamilya ng babae ay sa kaniya na umaasa. Nag amin si kuya ko na siya pa daw ang nagbibiyak ng kahoy sa kanila. Tapos, minsan sinisigawan pa siya ng Ama ng babae. Linalakad lang ni kuya ko papunta sa mall na tratrabahuan niya. Aalis siya sa bahay around 5 AM at lalakarin hanggang maka-abot sa trabahuan. Mga 2-3 hours daw ang kaniyang nilalakad araw-araw. Papunta at pabalik. Dahil, sayangdaw kasi ang pamasahe niya. Ibili na lang daw niya ng pagkain. Kami ay labis na naawa na kay kuya ko. Bakit niya yun naranasan doon. Ikinuwento naman ito ni mama ko sa kaniyang kapatid. Sabi ng kapatid niya , kung may dalang damit daw ba yung kuya ko ma umuwi dito na damit ni kuya ko na nagpaiwan doon. Para daw ipa albularyo. Nagtataka na kasi kami dahil, kahit anong pilit naming pauwiin si kuya dahil nakaka awa na siya. Parang naging katulong na lang siya. Samantala ang gf niya naman ay panay my day ng Jollibee. Kung alam niyo lang, napakapayat na ni kuya ko doon. Buto't balat na lang siya at sobrang putla. Sabi ng albularyo, ginayuma daw si kuya ko ng babae. Inilagay daw sa isang pepsi at ipina inom kay kuya kaya biglaang nabighani si kuya ko sa babae. At lahat daw na sinasabi ng babae sa kaniya ay sinusunod niya dahil sa gayuma. Nung nalaman namin ito, agad naman naming ikinagalit ito. Pero di kami nag rant sa babae. Hinayaan lang namin. Gawa na lang ako ng Part 2 neto. Di ko kasi matapos ngayon dahil busy masyado . Hope you understand. Thank you for reading. God Bless. Hanggang dito na lang muna. Salamat muli. @Lunah


My Highschool Love Entering in a relationship is part of our growing as teenagers. I know that you have someone you love when your in highschool. Am I right? I have my *first love* in highschool. Itago na lang natin sa pangalang Mico. Hahaha. Yes, I entered in relationship way back in Grade 10. I don't expect to fall inlove with this guy who treat me as his true friend. I treat him as my friend also and as my classmate. He is my classmate since Grade 7 until Grade 10. When we were in Grade 9, we became friends. Just a normal friend. He is so quite and a smart guy. Sometimes, napaka funny niya pag kasama kaming dalawa sa field. We are both in the achiever or in the top students. I'm so happy na kasama siya always mag study, kumain and so on. Before, I don't like to be friends with him. Because, I was afraid that my classmates might create some weird rumors to us. Kapag kasi ang mga achievers ay nagsama noon. Yung mga ibang classmates namin is maiinggit. Di ko din alam bakit ganun sila. Kaya, kaming mga nasa achievers is minsan lang nag-uusap and then sometimes, mag-isa lang kami kakain sa recess. Pero kapag mayaman ka tapos matalino. Edi, madami kang mga kaibigan. Basta ganun ang mga estudyante sa school namin noon. Isa sa mga personalities ko na maka sense kaagad ng mga negative thoughts mula sa mga plastic na tao. Yung nasa-isip ko pa lang pero alam ko na kung ano ang kasunod na mangyayari if I do that thing. Ahh, by the way. When I was in highschool. I have few friends, as what I said to my previous article. But, they are not my true friends. Hehe. Pero pasalamat na lang din ako sa kanila. Dahil kahit fake sila sa akin. Atleast may kasama akong kumain. Nakikisabay lang kasi ako minsan sa kanila pag lunchtime. Di talaga ako welcome sa group nila. HAHA. Until, we enter in Grade 10. One day, I was in the Library. Reading some books. Mico sat besides to me. I was shock because, he just appeard in my side. Ako naman na nahihiya na sa kaniya. Hindi ko na lang siya pinansin noon. Unless, siya ang unang magsalita. I can say that I am weird before. Nahihiya ako sa kaniya, kaya tumayo na lang ako para lilipat ng upuan. Pero, bigla siyang nagsalita na ikinagulat ko. *"Lunah, aalis ka na?" ,* pakalmang tanong niya sa akin. Natatandaan ko pa nun. May eyeglasses pa siya at may panyo sa likod. Ang tanging sambit ko naman ay.. *"Ah, opo... Bakit?"*, pagsasagot ko sa kaniya. *"Pwede, umupo ka muna dito? May itatanong lang ako sayo",* sagot niya na kalmado pa din ang boses. Ako ay natatakot na makipag socialize sa kaniya kahit friend ko pa siya. Dahil, alam niyo na. Baka may makakita sa amin. And akalain nila na nag share kami ng answers sa assignment or baka may something between saming dalawa. Basta yun ang nasa isip ko noon. Takot ako lumapit, lalo na lalake siya. Pinakalma ko sarili ko at nagsalita. "Ah, sige sige Mico. Baka may makakita sa atin. Alam mo na, baka ano isipin nila", Yun lang ang sambit ko saka bumalik sa kinauupuan ko. Ito talaga ang hindi ko makakalimutan sa Grade 10 life ko. When he asked me kung bakit ko daw nilalayuan ko na siya, di kagaya noon pag Grade 9. Simula daw na iniiwasan ko siya ,nawalan siya ng kaibigan. Bigla namang naawa ako sa kaniya. Di ko din alam na ako lang pala ang naging kaibigan niya. At biglang na gui-giulty ako sa sarili ko. Nagpaliwanag ako sa kaniya na. Natakot ako na baka may masabi mga ibang classmates namin. Iniiwasan ko siya noon dahil, nakakahalata na ang ibang classmates namin na close na kami. Before kasi ako nakikisabay sa mga friends ko na babae, is siya yung naging friend ko. Alone kasi ako always, kasi di ako nagsasalita. Kasi mahiyain talaga. Pero, siya mismo ang lumapit sa akin noon. Sumasabay-sabay siya sa akin hanggang naging close na kaming dalawa. The only hindrance na nag pahiwalay sa aming friendship is ang mga taong nakapalibot sa amin. Nasesense kasi ng mga classmates namin na close na kami masyado, lalo na't nasa achiever kami. Naiinis din ako minsan sa mga kaklase ko dahil ganun ang mga mindset nila. Puros chismis lang ang ginagawa sa buhay. But, you know. Bumalik kami sa dati. Hinayaan namin ang mga chismis ng classmates namin. Sabay na kaming magstudy, kumain sa canteen, magkwentuhan sa field, gawa ng assignment and so on. Ang iniisip namin always is ang grades namin at kung paano ma maintain ang achievements namin. Not until, I fall inlove with him. Yes ! I fall inlove with him in a wrong time. I know nasa Grade 10 pa lang kami. Pero, I do keep it as a secret until now. He is my first love. And that's my Bestfriend Mico.... Part 2 pa ba? HAHAHA. First love never dies ba kamo? Thank you for reading. If I have a time. I will continue writing the next part of it. May highschool love story ka din ba? Share naman diyan. Hehe @Lunah


Wikang Filipino Ipamulat sa Makabagong Henerasyon Ngayong buwan ay Buwan ng Agosto. Bagkus, ito ang **Buwan ng ating Wika**. Isa sa mga manunulat na Pilipino dito na si @LucyStephanie ay nananawagan na tayo'y magsulat ng isang artikulo o sanaysay gamit ang wikang Filipino. Gamit ang ating sariling wika. Ako'y napaisip kagabi kung ano ang aking isusulat. Ngunit, maraming mga topiko ang sumasagi sa isipan ko. Ika nga ni LucyStephanie na dapat makabuluhan ang ating isusulat na sanaysay o artikulo. Para man lang may mapulot tayong mga kaalaman. Ako ay isang Pilipino. Pinanganak at may dugong Pinoy. Pero, sa totoo lang, kahit ako ay isang Pilipino. Minsan, nahihirapan ako sa pagsusulat ng buong artikulo o sanaysay gamit ang ating wikang Filipino. Aminin man natin o sa hindi. Hindi talaga tayo (*fluent*) magsulat gamit ang ating wika. Dahil, mas nakasanayan nating gamitin ang Tag-lish o *Tagalog-English.* Marami pa akong hindi alam na mga malalalim na salita sa ating wika. Ngunit, dahil sa ating mga guro sa Filipino. Mas napapalawak pa nila ang ating kaalaman gamit ang mga baybayin, jargon at ang kasaysayan ng ating wika. Ngayon, ibandera natin ang ating Pagka-Pilipino. Alam ko na mas maraming mga Pilipino na manunulat dito sa platapormang ito. Kaya, kapag gusto niyo ring sumulat gamit ang ating wika. **ISULAT MO NA!** ***"KATUTUBONG WIKA'Y ATING GAMITIN SA PAGPAPALAGANAP NG BALITA UPANG PANDEMYA'Y ATING MAIWASAN AT SUGPUIN"*** Noong nakaraang taon. Ako ay sumali sa isang patimpalak sa aming paaralan. Ang patimpalak na ito ay tinatawag na **"Sulat Baybayin" .** Noong sumabak ako sa paligsahan na ito. Hindi ko alam kung ano nga ba ang baybayin at kung paano susulatin ang isang letra gamit ang baybayin. Ngunit dahil gustong kong sumali sa paligsahan. Ako ay nag-ensayo para mas gaganda pa ang sulat kamay ko gamit ang baybayin at mas malaman ko pa kung ano ang tamang pagsulat at katumbas ng bawat letra. Sa makatwid, nakuha ko ang Unang Karangalan. Nakuha ko ito dahil sa mga taong sumusuporta din sa akin. Oo, makikita niyo sa taas na hindi gaano maganda. At alam kong napaka simple lamang ng aking ginawa. Ngunit, sabi nga nila ang pagiging simple ay mas nakakaganda. At ang higit sa lahat ang mensahe na nais kong ibatid sa mga mambabasa. Habang umuusbong ang ating panahon sa makabagong henerasyon. Mas maraming mga kabataan ngayon ang tumatangkilik sa ibang mga lengguahe. Kagaya na lamang ng *Korean language.* Na halos libo-libong mga kabataan sa ating henerasyon ang mas tumatangkilik sa ibang kultura, lengguahe at mga tradisyon. Hindi naman ito masama kapag tumatangkilik tayo sa ibang lengguahe. Pero, sana naman, pagsabihan natin sila o ipamulat natin sa kanila na nakakalimutan na nilang tangkilikin ang sariling atin at kontrolin din natin ang ating sarili paminsan-minsan. Tayo ay Pilipino, Mahalin natin ang ating sariling Wika. Sino pa ba ang magpapamulat sa mga kabataan ngayon na ang ating wika ay napaka importante? Na ang ating wika ay Unti-unti nang nakakalimutan natin? Sino pa ba ang magpapaintindi sa kanila? Kundi, tayo lamang na mga matatanda sa kanila. Ang ating wika ay napaka importante. Dahil dito, nagkakaintindihan tayong lahat. Mas nagkakaroon ng pag-uunawaan at nagbibigay ng mabuting relasyon sa buong bansa. Isipin niyo, ang ating panahon ay nagiging moderno na. Halos mga kabataan ngayon, pati tayo ay napamulat na din sa mga teknolohiya at mga modernong gamit galing sa ibang bansa. Hindi lang ang ating wika ang unti-unti nang nakakalimutan. Pati na rin ang sariling gawa ng mga katutubong Pilipino. Mga kababayan ko, mga kapwa Pilipinong manunulat. Ipamulat natin sa mga bagong henerasyon kung gaano kaganda ang pagtangkilik sa sariling atin. Kung gaano kaganda ang kasaysayan ng Pilipinas, ng ating wika at iba pa. Ito ay magsisimula mismo sa atin . Ayon kay **Manuel L. Quezon**. Ang ating *AMA ng Wikang Pambansa*. ***"Walang pinakamahalaga sa sinumang tao kundi ang pagkakaroon ng kamalayan tungkol sa pagkakaisa ng bansa at bilang bayan, hindi tayo magkakaroon ng higit na kamalayan kung walang sinasalitang wikang panlahat"*** *"Ang wika ay siyang nagpapahayag ng mga kaisipan at mithiin ng isang bayan"* -Manuel L. Quezon Mraming Salamat po sa pagbabasa ng aking sanaysay o artikulo. Naway may napulot kayong konteng kaalaman. Nagpapasalamat din ako sa aking dalawang *sponsor* na sina @whitney123 at @Sequoia. Sa uulitin **MARAMING SALAMAT PO**. Ngayon, ikaw naman. Isulat mo na ang iyong nais ipabatid gamit ang wikang Filipino. @Lunah

All we need are patience, hard work and effort. ***50-55 Dollars in this whole Month*** I don't know if I can achieve this BCH in this whole month. But, this is my target earnings in this month.

Grandmother or Lola’s Love Is your grandmother are still alive? For sure, you have the best memories with her when you were kid. ***Our grandmother or lola’s love is very unique.*** They give everything to us when we were a child until we grew up. Sometimes, they loved us more than their own children. They did everything just to see us happy. Even they don’t have enough money, but, when you ask 1 peso to buy a lollipop before. They will give you 5 pesos or 10 pesos or more than that. That’s how they show their love to their grandchildren. My Lola is already **84 years old now.** And I’ve been always prayed that she will live longer until we will become successful soon and give her a proper living. So, when I was a child, my lola lived on the other baryo or village. Far from our house. (Bale nasa bundok kami, siya naman nasa baba). As far as I remember, when I was in kinder. She always hike up in the mountain to went up in our house, just to visit us. Even, we are too far away to her. I don’t know but, she always loved hiking. Which is good to her health as body exercise. Everytime that she went in our house, she brought fruits and something to eat. Like, banana, chiko, suman and lunok. You know what does lunok means? Not literally the meaning of lunok na lumunok ng pagkain or etc. Lunok is part of a niyog kapag gagawa kayo ng lana or oil. Basta yung mga kinudkod na niyog tapos niluto hanggang lumabas ang oil ng niyog. At yung kinudkod na niyog na niluto or na fry sa pagpapalabas ng oil. Yun ang tinatawag naming lunok. Actually, if bisaya ka. You know exactly what lunok means. I can’t show a picture because, we don’t do that now. Pero, super sarap ng lunok. . Hehe. When she’s at home. She always tell us great stories about the different alamat or legends. ALAMAT or Legends are very famous and interesting stories before. Because, our Grandparents are the bearers of a family's history. They pass on family traditions and regale Grandchildren about how life used to be. She spoiled us to the fruits she have in her garden and if we visited her in her house. She will cook something special to us. When I enter in Elementary, maybe grade 5 or 6? My lola asked me one favor. That, I will go there in her house and sleep with her because, she is the only one living at her house. She feels lonely and alone always. So, I asked my mom if it is okay to sleep there every weekends to help my grandmother and to make her feel being happy seeing someone at her house. And my mother agreed, since, my grandmother was her mother. Grandmother’s love is strong, pure and unconditional and we could only compare it to a mother's love. When I enter in High School, she always take me everytime she get her pension. And she gave something to me since, I am the only one who accompany her. HAHAHA. Di ko alam ha, pero pag kasama ko si lola. Busog na busog ako. Pinapa decide niya din ako kung ano ang biblhin naming na ulam for lunch and dinner. Masaya din ako dahil, nakakapunta at nakakalabas ako sa bario papuntang palengke kasama siya. When, she get older and older. She decided that my mom will be the one who will get the money for her. She trusted my mom for everything she have. Naalala ko pa noong nakaraang araw, sabi ni lola ko kay mama na, **“Salamat nak, dahil sa pito kayong magkakapatid kahit buto’t balat na ako. Di ka paring nagsasawang alagaan ako, kahit wala man akong pera o maibibigay sayo”.** Si mama kasi is napaka soft-hearted person just like me. She wanted to do her best na alagaan si lola ko kahit may pamilya na siya. Dahil ina niya yon. Walang makakapantay sa pagmamahal ng ina o magulang natin. Kaya, suklian din natin sila ng walang sawang pagmamahal. Kapag may sakit kasi si lola ko, always kami pumupunta sa kaniya. Tapos si mama at papa ang bumibili ng ulam para sa kaniya, nag-aasikaso at bumibili ng gamot. Kami naman na anak ni mama ay nililinisan ang labas ng bahay niya. Kasi, sa sobrang tagal na di kami nakalabas ng bahay at nakapunta sa kaniya dahil sa covid-19. Parang basurahan na ang palibot ng house ni lola ko. Agad naman namin itong winalisan. Kinulayan ng black ang hair niya dahil super puti na. Nagluto luto din kami doon ng pagkain. At alam niyo, makikita ko sa mga mata ni lola ko **ang SAYA at PAGMAMAHAL.** Naiiyak ako sa sinabi niya sakin na, ***“Apo, di na din ako tatagal dito sa mundo. Kukunin na ako ni lolo mo, sasama na kami doon sa langit”.*** Umiyak ako ng todo, bakit yun ang pinagsasalita ni lola ko. Oo, alam kong dadating ang araw na mawawala na siya. Pero, wag naman sana ngayon dahil, gusto ko pa siya makasama hanggang sa pagtanda ko at Makita niya ang mga anak ko soon. Kaya, kapag buhay pa ang lola at lolo, mama at papa natin. Ipadama natin ang pagmamahal na deserve nila. E hug natin sila at e kiss kahit matanda na. Alam kong bumabalik sila sa isip bata dahil sa edad nila. Pero wag natin silang pandirian o iwasan. Sa halip, intindihin at mahalin. Para when the day will come, mananatili sa kanilang puso’t-isipan na may mga taong nagmamahal at nag-aalaga sa kanila nung buhay pa sila. **I prayed na bigyan pa ng Panginoong Diyos na mabuhay ng matagal ang ating mga lolo’s at lola’s , lalo na ang ating mga magulang.** **Thank You for reading. God Bless Us all.** Kwento mo naman ang kabaitan ng lola mo sa comment section. *“NOBODY CAN REPLACE THE LOVE OF A GRANDMA. SHE HAS THIS MAGICAL ABILITY TO MAKE EVERYTHING FEEL BETTER”* @Lunah

I Don't Have Real Friends Hello to all. Happy Friday! Today is July 30,2021. I take the challenge of @whitney123 on her article about International Friendship Day **even, I don't have real friends. hehehe.** You know, before, When I was in Highschool. I have many friends. But, NOT literally the real meaning of friends. They want me to be their friends because, they need me for academics. I can't say that I'm a smart person. But, I can sense that they take advantage to me because of having a nice grades. Even, I sense it. I just say to myself that. **"It's okay, because soon, when the right time will come. I will realized that its okay to be alone and know my worth".** Before, It's okay to me to be part of them. Even I'm not fitted in the circle of friends they have. **I always fit in to others, because, I want to feel having a friends. Having a person to talk to. I do that, because, I don't want to feel alone in the school. If I don't fit 'n to them and do what they want. I will always left behind, walk alone and eat alone**. I tried my best to socialize. But, I feel bad to myself of being lowkey person I am. During our moving up, they don't even let me join to their celebration, a year end celebration or farewell after quarantine. But, its okay. I just try my best to celebrate it with my family. When, I enter in Senior High School. I feel bad seeing their mydays and posts in facebook. Having fun , dance together and bond together. To be honest, I feel jealous to them, because, this year many of us turned 18 years old. But, they don't even invite me to their birthday celebrations. For 4 years of being a classmates with them. I feel happy those old days that even I tried my best to fit'n. They will treat me as their friends even just a plastic one. Hehe. **But, today they don't even remember me. They always chat me if they need me. They will always remember me if they need something to me**. HAHAHA. My parents saw me crying last night. Because, I do tell to them that. No one even remember me after what I did to them before, in order to help them in their academics. I just realize that even, You tried your best to do good things to them , to be kind and being helpful. But, if they don't like you or pass the vibes they wanted. You will always failed to fit in the group. My mom and dad told me that, **"Hon, you don't need a friends. You don't need a circle of friends. You have us, you need to focus on your career. Friends can ruin you. Trust me Hon. I hope you understand what we wanted to convey".** When I enter in Grade 11. Still, I don't have friends. Because, my classmates are very competitive. And I'm afraid also that they will take advantage to me. Hahaha. I have trust issues now. That time also, I received messages from my previous classmates that they need my help to make them understand what the meaning of their activities. But, you know. I don't replied to them. I just ignore them. The way they ignored me. I don't want to tolerate them to depend to others. I don't want also to be taken for granted by a plastic friends and classmates. I think, those tough olds thays makes me realize that, It's okay to be alone as I grew up. But, I'm so thankful to them. That even, they do that to me. Even I don't have real friends. It serves an inspiration to me to do my own best. To stand by myself. To be alone without a friends to talk to. So, now, I realized that when the people don't want me because, I'm so kind and innocent. Then, I will be alone. For 2 years of being alone by myself . I feel happy staying at home. Watching movies alone. And mind my own business. If there is someone that you feel that they take advantage you of being so kind and helpful. Please, avoid them. I tell to you that **"Being Alone, makes us realize how worthy we are" .** To all my friends here in read.cash. Even this is my fourth day here. I feel not alone anymore. Because, you welcomed me here. I feel happy to write and make friends in this platform. Thank you so much . I will always love you and cherish each one of you. God Bless Us All. But, as a teenager. To be honest, I wish to have a good real friends and experience a sort of happiness in life. Hehe. That feeling that they will accept me even what status my life now. Hehe Thank you all for reading this article. I just feel emotionally right now. I'm so Sorry. hehe. **HAPPY INTERNATIONAL DAY** my dear friends here. Continue doing good and be the light into someones darkness. I love you! @Lunah

My Spiritual Brother Have you ever feel the same thing to me. That someone came up to your life? And bring you more closer to God? If you met a person like that. Please keep them. They are Blessings and one instrument that God given to you. I have met a boy who's older than me way back year 2019. But, before I met him. I was a youth in our Church that time. I met him during our practice for our performances for the youth camp. As a youth in our Church. Every activities of the Church, we need to be present and be active. I was young before when I met him. I think 17 years old. And he was 19 years old. As what I said in my previous article that I don't go outside. But, when it's all about Church services. I am active with that. As youth who's lived near of the mountain. The only places that I always visited are from my home to my school, the church and back again to our house. The two places that I need to go through. Being a youth in the Church is a great privilege that you need to be experience in your whole life. Yes, I may say that it is so amazing in serving God. As part of the Church, were you have spiritual families. During our practices for the youth camp's activities. Every afternoon, after our class. We gather in the parish gym together and wait until all of us will be present. I don't have close there because, I'm so shy to socialize until now. I'm not that literally good in dancing, but, I do my best in every steps. I just know how to dance. Hehe. After 1 week in practicing. I've noticed him that he always solicit for our meriendas and tricycle fare. He always help each one of us. Especially, me. I look him as my other brother. I don't know but he is so kind and helpful. Like, **"Yung kahit walang-wala na siya. Pero naghahanap siya ng paraan para di kami mapabayaan na mga youth."** In my part, since my house are far in the church. I asked him. If it is okay na, makiki angkas ako sa kaniya na ihahatid niya ako sa bahay dahil may motor siya. Total hinahatid niya yung ate sa kabilang barangay. And yes, he always sent me home kasama yung isang ate na ka-church mate din namin. Inuuna nila ako hatid bago yung isang ate na kasama ko. Until my family noticed them na hinahatid nila ako. Super thankful din sila dahil safety akong nakakauwi. We've become close, we talk each other about life. Sabay kaming kumakain and if wala akong baon. He will always share his baon to me. Actually, after a weeks of practices. They just re-schedule our practices every other day. Nagbibigay din ng allowance ang Church namin para saming mga youth. Pero, sa president binibigay at siya na bahala mag budget sa foods namin. After ng youth camp. Still, napaka close pa din namin dalawa. Actually his name is Reynaldo but I called him Bobby as his nickname. In that time, I just feel that I have a true friend and there is someone who can I rely too. Including my family. He always invited me to the praise and worship. And as part of the ministry. After 1 year, he entered as a **"Layco or Pastor" in there GKK.** I'm so happy that he followed his call by God. And he also pursue his career to become a religion teacher soon. You know, I serve him as one of my inspiration that even life is so hard. **Pagmalapit tayo sa Diyos. Mas papalapitin pa tayo sa kaniya. Until we already knew our purposes as His followers and disciples.** Currently, 3rd year college student na siya. Kahit nagbebenta o naglalako lang sila ng gulay. Mahilig siya magbigay tulong sa iba lalo na sa mga youth na katulad niya. He is part of my life. He is one of the most genuine person I know and I have. I'm so thankful and Bless for having him as good friend, not just a normal friend but a Spiritual Brother. He've been always there through my ups and down. And he knows some part about mylife. I'm so thankful that through serving Him, makes us the way to meet each other. I'm not that tough enough now, if it wouldn't for him. He always said na, **"Kahit anong klaseng storms pa ang dadating sa buhay natin, kailangan push lang ng push at wag mawalan ng faith kay God. Just keep on praying and everything will be okay".** When he have a gf last year. I just distance myself to him. Because, I don't want to bother them. Baka sakin masira relationship nila. hahaha. Dahil super close talaga kasi kami masyado. And until nawalan na kami ng communication sa isa't-isa. But, I know that lacking of communication is not the hindrance para masira ang isang friendship. Dibah? May mga mag friends kasi na kahit di nag-uusap sa chat. Pero, close pa din sa personal.hehe So, Yesterday was his birthday . I greet him and pray for him as we pave for our near success. Hoping that day, that we can bond together again. I'm so happy na I have friend like him before, who guide and keep me shine. Is someone came up to your life. And bring you more closer to God? Of course you have. **Your FAMILY**. Thank You for reading. God Bless Us All. @Lunah

Born Being Simple Hello. This is my second day in read.cash, as well as my second article I published. I want to share this to you. Since, this is the one who pop up to my mind. And as what I said yesterday on my first article that, I just keep on typing and typing on what my minds usually speaks. But first, I want to gave thanks to those people who are really approachable and friendly to me. Like, you gave me motivations to write and help me to boost my self-confident to write what my mind and heart wanted to convey. I'm so thankful that you become part of my journey here in read.cash. I don't need to mention you here. Because, I know that you already know who you are. Yesterday, I've been thinking what should I write for tomorrow's article. And yeah, here it is. So, as what you can read in the title above. "Born Being Simple" . I was born in a very simple family. Where we lived at the mountain. We are 8 Siblings and I am the 6th one. Hehe. I have 1 older sister and 1 youngest sister, 4 older brothers and 1 youngest brother. Actually, living in a simple life is very happy. Despite of the problems we encountered everyday. My mother is a loving housewife and my father is a tricycle driver. I know, what does really life means. I mean, being born in this world as a poor will really open our eyes into great challenges. I am a senior high school student. With a biggest dream. All of us had a dreams in life. And I know, one of it is to be successful in life. In our life, we can eat 2 times a day and sometimes 3 times a day. Not because, we are very poor. But, we need to save rice in order to survive. The salary of my father is not that big, especially nowadays because, its Pandemic. It is hard to find passengers. So, I really find a ways to help my parents in everyday needs in terms of financial. Because, thats the thing that we really need. We always pray to God that He will guide us in our everyday living and give us good health. Our parents thought us that being simple makes us beautiful. Which is right. To be honest, I don't go outside in our house because, I'm not that kind of a person who love to socialize in others especially in personal. I'm good in communicating through online or virtual. Hahaha. When you born near at the mountain. Some people think that you lived peacefully there. Not knowing that, those people who lived at the mountain are having a hard life. Because, they are so far in the city. To buy foods. I remember when I was elementary. Our tricycle is very old. When my dad fetch us from school. We always buy rice at the store. And cooking oil. Yes! I'm not shy that we used cooking oil and salt as our viand before. Because, thats life. We need to thank it to God of what we have even in a little things. Because, it is His Blessing. My mom, always said that. **"Education is the key to success".** We tried our best to study hard in order to help our parents. In order to eat 3 times or more than 3 times a day. We don't waste any rice or leftovers in our plates. Because, nowadays, its so hard to find money to buy foods and other basic needs. And also, my parents are getting older. So, I really find a way to help them. My 2 brothers have there own family. And the 5 of us are still studying. So, I must strive harder and do my best to help my parents. I know that, in this way. I can help my family even a little amount of financial support. I'm so thankful that I found the noise.cash and read.cash sites. I will create another article on how I find this sites and when it was started. A As a student, seeing my parents having a hard time to raised us and give us education. It gives us motivation to work our dreams and chase it with the help of God and always trust in ourselves. Once again, Thank You so much for reading my article. And to those people who upvoted my first article. Even in a small amount . It really helps. Thank you for sharing your knowledge to me on how to gain readers. All I can say that, May God Bless Us Always and Keep Us Safe. Mwapss. @Lunah
