What happened to November?
***Hello beautiful people!***
***I hope you all are doing fine amidst of the shortcomings and uncertainties we may feel day by day. Always remember that a positive life is a happy life. ✨***
I may say that my November was the saddest month of my 2022. *Sorry for starting it this way.* However, as you can read on my header, a bad day is not a bad life. I got no choice but to continue. As I always should.
Why the saddest? It is because I got positive with Covid 19 as what I shared on my previous article about three weeks ago. Being at home and do nothing really affects me a lot, both financially and mentally.
It was difficult being sick knowing that I am the provider of the family. *Emergency Funds really is an important thing that we need to set our attention to because we never know what may happen in our everyday life.*
Being just at home for 14 days worried me a lot. I already used all my vacation and sick leave and left with only three sick leaves. I tried to apply for SSS Sickness Benefits but got disapproved because the doctor only conducted and Anti Gen on me and not the RT PCR and it is what was needed for my application to be approved, and I can't do anything about it anymore.
I was sad because I was just able to send half of what my usual budget for my mom and younger brother. Good thing, they are understanding enough.
Right now, I am still trying to bounce back and looking for ways to pay back those friends I borrowed money from.
Writing this in the first day of December hoping I'll get to have a good plot twist of my 2022. I am still trying to make up with what loses I got. Hopefully, the remaining days for this year will be good enough to start my 2023 well.
Got a lot of plans for 2023. Needs to have a lot of changes to my daily routine. Planning to do better and better.

Got positive.
***Hello beautiful people!***

October 30, 2022 I really got unwell but still I chose to render work as I am aiming to hit the goal for that certain week as our company offers big incentives that week.
I thought I'll be fine after taking advil because usually I will be. Unfortunately, I am not even half of my work hours and I am getting unwell and unwell. I almost got chills, I felt severe headache, and my whole body was already in pain. Still, I continue my work for that day.
And when I get home, I direclty checked my temperature and to my surprised, I experienced a high fever. My temperature was 39.5°.
I wasn't able to go to work the next day because I still have body pain, but good thing, I got no fever anymore.
Since getting absent from work requires medical cetificate to dispute my absence as I call in being sick, I decided to visit a clinic for check up after my fever subided.
When I was examined by the physician, she suspected a dengue or covid as the symptoms I got says so. So she decided to perform laboratories.
And guess what? I got positive with Covid. I don't know if I'll be happy because I do not have dengue, or I do not know what to feel that time anymore. I was advised to do home quarantine for 10 days.
When I get home, I still can't believe I got covid. I really believe it is true as all the symptoms I got says so, and I really cannot taste any foods for three days.
I was so sad not going to work as it badly affects my performances. 10 days was too long and I can't just request for work from home set up just to cover my work days. So I got no choice but to accept that I'll be paid none for that days.
I really thought that covid is not existing anymore. But for real, if you experienced it, you'll really be paranoid for a while.
So it is really important to still follow the health protocols because we never know who has it or who does not.
And just an update, I just got from work three days ago. I am already fine and trying to bounce back my performance at work.
Stay safe everyone.

Luka and something else.
***Hello beautiful people!***
***I hope you all are doing fine amidst of the shortcomings and uncertainties we may feel day by day. Always remember that a positive life is a happy life. ✨***
Argh! Was away again for more than a week now. I actually regretted it as checking back how my articles went by from the start of October, I can say it is doing good and Rusty has been generous to me. Only if I didn't stop for a week, maybe I already gain more than what I have now.
Anyway, the damage has been done. Let be what it is.
But what really causes me to be inactive again for more than a week?
It is because my sister and her little family is here at my place now.
But before that, let me share to you one of the highlight of my week being inactive here.
Luka's Dedication.
MakMak, one of my close friend at work invited us to attend his son dedication. I jokingly said at my other's friend that I wasn't invited by MakMak personally so I will not be attending. Again, it was just joke. Then unknowingly, they told MakMak about that last October 15, he sent me a message.
I laughed out loud upon receiving his message because my other friends really told him about my joke. They're really fun to be with.
Then October 23, Luka's dedication happened. We went there around 12:00 PM. It was my first time seeing Luka in person. He is so cute. I was just so afraid to carry him because he's too small, but still I did carry him for a picture.
Look at that round eyes! So pretty. Luka is 5 months now. Just how fast time flies for real. We never know, he'll be one already.
And that's my circle. We have a little videoke after our lunch. Guess who's the best singer among us? Lol!
And that's us with MakMak (the one wearing brown polo shirt) and Katty, Luka's mom. I don't know what Luka is looking at.
Then we went home after. It was such an amazing day being invited for a child's dedication. We just gave our gift before the lunch started. We made sure that the gift is useful for Luka.

gosh, the hands.

I am supposed to be sleeping right now, but I can't just go to sleep peacefully without uploading an article here at least an article per two days. I am trying my best to write everyday, but I can't since I always run out of what to write.
Anyway, this will just be another *a no article, article.* Lol!
I'll just share to you what happened in half of my day today. Yes, just half. Or let's say, one fourth of my day? Because the last 12 hours was spent at work, the coming six hours will be for sleeping. It's seem that you can't do a lot in 24 hours, huh? Just like how little we can buy using our one thousand bill. Oh well, inflation!
After my shift, Kuya Joel invited me for lunch; of course for free because if not, I'll be not joining him. Just kidding!
He treated me a super meal from Ayer's Lechon. My all time favourite lechon in Cebu. I just loved it paired with the very spicy and sour vinegar.
And gosh, the hands!
Look at that! I was really startled when we ordered our food. I was like, why is there a hand in their counter? Then I remembered. Oh! Halloween is coming. Another trick or treat? Oh, to be kid!
And before we decided to go home, Kuya Joel decided to pass by Penshoppe to buy a small wallet. Unfortunately, he like nothing. So we ended up leaving the store empty handed. Lol!
And of course if given a chance, I would grab it. I love taking mirror selfies for memories. Almost everyday I take pictures of myself in the office. How I love to have a very huge body mirror at home. Maybe I'll just spend my day in front of my mirror? How unproductive I will be if ever. Lol!
Anyway, see? This is just really a no article, article! Lol.

Notes.
***Hello beautiful people!***
***I hope you all are doing fine amidst of the shortcomings and uncertainties we may feel day by day. Always remember that a positive life is a happy life. ✨***
I just checked my Facebook notifications earlier and saw that I am one of the Top Fan of the Facebook Page *Notes.* https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100080726494214
This is their Facebook Page, by the way.
What I love on this page is that most of their posts are inspirational and that you can learn from it. For me, it is better this way instead of watching and reading some nonsense and toxic posts online. With this you can be able to realize things and learn something.
And since I have nothing to write as of today, I decided to get three of their posts which I wanted to share with you.
As a woman, I have this pride to always want to pay my own bills. Because why not, I always wanted to be that 'independent woman'. For more than three years now, I have been paying my own bills. *Rented house, foods, water and electricity, my wants, and all.* But paying my own bills is not easy. I need to make sure to be strict and disciplined in my expenses. Because if I run out of budget, I have no one I can run to, especially now adays that we are in a very high inflation. But being a woman who pays her own bills is just so satisfying as you know to yourself that you can be the person you wanted to be.
That is why, I am keeping in mind day by day that ***"a bad day is not a bad life"***. I am sure that everyone of us, even the richest of rich experienced to have bad days. But look at them now, they're the richest. We may not become like them, but we may succeed in our own little way. That if some of our days are bad, we just need to bear in mind that we experienced these days because we used to have good days too. And having bad days for some reason is good as it will make us grow. It makes think of greater things that we can do to improve and do better. Having bad days balances our daily lives and made it more exciting and worth living.
This one is just like the second one above. Personally, I am really having a bad days these past few days which I already shared here. But you know what, things are getting better day by day. What did I do? I kept on praying, asking for guidance and strength from the Lord. Believing in myself that I can make it. Doing things that will help me get through this all. And for real, it works. I may not be totally okay, but I am almost there. Sometimes to get through the problem and pain, you just have to believe that you can do it.

supportive and proud friends.
***Hello beautiful people!***
***I hope you all are doing fine amidst of the shortcomings and uncertainties we may feel day by day. Always remember that a positive life is a happy life. ✨***
Last day, I shared here how I really love leaving my present workplace because of how toxic it turns these past few days . But you know what, some things are stopping me to do so. There are a lot of reasons, but I wanted to share one.
My supportive and proud friends.
I do not have a big circle of friends at work. I am not sure if it is because I am not that sociable or I am just shy to make friends. But what matters to me is not the number of friends I have, but the quality of friendship I may have.
I only have two close girl friends ( Lyn and Chloe) and five close guy friends (MakMak, Gal, Fed, Kuya Marlito, and Jugene). Yes, I have more guy friends than girls. I don't know but I prefer it that way.
Anyway, I just love being surrounded with these people. Why?
Before, I really used to render overtime everyday. I can even complete a week rendering 12 hours per day, with one work on day off for 12 hours as well. That means I always do 72 hours per week. And have no absences. And they used to seeing me that productive.
However, for some reason, I changed in a snap, which me myself don't understand why.
I don't do overtime anymore and have some absences too.
Everytime I am not with them, they always talked about me if how I was doing and what's wrong with me. If I am going through something that they did not know, or if I am even experiencing depression. Which actually made me laugh because I am totally fine and just tired.
But deep inside, I appreciate how concern they are for me.
And one day, I got to bounce back.
And honestly, I can see in their eyes how happy they are seeing me back on track.
We are close friends but we have different supervisor, which means we have different work stations.
But that did not stop them from supporting and being proud of me.
Every time they have time, they always visit me in my station and keep on saying, "Kana Pinang, sakto na! Be back on track. Makahappy nga makita nga nibalik sa sauna nga ikaw."
Like by just hearing them say that, I can feel the sincerity and care they have for me.
I may not be the youngest in the group, but they treat me like I am.
Just how I mean a lot to them, they mean a lot to me too. I am just happy to be in a circle like them.

24 hour awake!
***Hello beautiful people!***
***I hope you all are doing fine amidst of the shortcomings and uncertainties we may feel day by day. Always remember that a positive life is a happy life. ✨***
*I was supposed to go to one of the Pag Ibig Branch we have here in Cebu City to get my Pag Ibig Loyalty Card captured. However, I wasn't able to make it done. Sigh!*
That is actually because, I was 24 hour awake yesterday. Poor me. But I know it is my fault.
I woke up yesterday at around 5:00 AM to wash my clothes, prepared my breakfast, and did everything that needs to be done. After doing so, I just get back to bed to read articles here, scroll on my social media, and watch netflix.
I planned to sleep at around 2:00 PM because I planned also to render work on day off in the office. Sadly, I wasn't able to sleep anymore because I drink coke during my lunch. I jusy thought I could still sleep because I am actually sleepy. But to no avail, I wasn't. So I just let it be.
Then I have no choice, when the clock ticked at 5:30 PM, I just took my bath and prepare for work. I arrived at the office around 7:00 PM, have my dinner at our pantry, then start my shift by 8:00 PM. ***Imagine how sleepy I was.***
It was okay in the first two hours, but when the clock hit at 12:00 AM, gosh! I can't take it anymore. But I have no choice but to keep my eyes open and finish my shift until 4:00 AM today. Fortunately, I made it.
It was a struggle to be honest. I did not drink any coffee anymore as it will make me palpitate and just get nervous out of nowhere and it makes me uncomfortable. So I just bear with the sleepy head I felt.
When the clock striked at 4:00 AM earlier, I immediately logged off from work, booked a ride going home, as my body really wanted to be lying in bed and sleep.
Around 4:30 earlier, I arrived home. Changed my clothes, just check my messenger for any messages, and right go directly to my dreamland. Then I woke up at around 11:00 AM, which means I already have at least six hours of sleep. But still lacking after being awake for 24 hour.
Well anyway today, I am planning to sleep at around 5:00 PM, as I still need to go to work at 12:00 AM for a preshift overtime. And that's it.
Maybe, I'll be getting my Loyalty Card on my next rest day. Hopefully.

i can't sleep.
***Hello beautiful people!***
***I hope you all are doing fine amidst of the shortcomings and uncertainties we may feel day by day. Always remember that a positive life is a happy life. ✨***
*I'm having a difficulty on sleeping again. I came from a five days off, including the leaves I filed last month. Well, I got a good sleep though, I was able to sleep for at least 8 hours everyday, which our body usually need. But today, I am having a difficulty in sleeping.*
*I am planning to render overtime tonight, but since I can't sleep, I take this opportunity to write this article instead.*
*I may be writing another halo content today, but I still appreciate you all for taking time to read my work.*
By the way, these past few days, I am already planning to hop on another company. To be honest, the company I am working on right now seems to be not the same I have before. I mean, their tagline is supposed to be making people's live better, but personally, I do not feel it anymore. Don't get me wrong, I love my job and the company. It is my first work and I got to grow there. However, I think if you are not happy anymore with what you are doing, I guess it is better to stop and look for another. Because the more you hold on to it, the more you'll get uproductive.
Actually, I kept on asking signs from the Lord if I am making the right choice. And you know what, I came across with this qoute in facebook from Notes' Facebook Page while scrolling.
That's the first qoutation I saw earlier. It seems that it is giving me a hint to go for what I am planning to.
But for some reason, I think it might just be a coincidence that it appeared on my wall.
But it seems to be not, because when I opened my facebook just now, it showed me another qoutation from the same page.
See? It seems that the universe is really telling me to go for it. Grab the opportunity and start over.
To be honest, I am afraid to start over and I am afraid to move out from my comfort zone. But I hope to have the courage to face what is really meant for me.
Hopefully, I am making the right decision. I am still praying and asking for more guidance from the Lord so that whatever may happen, I'll be ready to accept everything.

our usual conversation.
***Hello beautiful people!***
***I hope you all are doing fine amidst of the shortcomings and uncertainties we may feel day by day. Always remember that a positive life is a happy life. ✨***
I really hate chatting and doing video calls. Before. I prefer talking to someone in person because that way I can feel the connection more. But in life, we really have exceptions.
Well anyway, since we are very far from each other, we have no choice but to exert effort in chats and video calls.
Sometimes, we have a lot to talk about. Plans. Future. Works. And the like. ***And of course, we do marites sometimes.***
****Plans and Future.****
At first I am afraid to share my plans with her thinking she might not be interested about it. However, as days goes by, I get comfortable with it. I love sharing my plans with her and talk about the future. They say, you should not let anybody know your next move; well, she's not just a nobody. And for the future, they say as well that do not think about the future too much, enjoy the present, but for me, it is best to see and think about our future as early as now. I do enjoy what I have now in the present, and do not know what the future has for me, but still talking about it makes me look forward on greater things and do my best here in present time.
****Works.****
I am currently working right now and planning to hop to another company. I used to talk about work with her as well as I wanted to have some advises too. As a breadwinner, I am pressured to atleast earn enough for me to provide.
She on the other hand, is a fresh graduate that is also pressured to land on a job as she wanted to give back to her family too.
We actually share the same sentiments about getting pressured, but you know, it gets better and better day by day knowing that someone got your back. We may be pressured with these kind of things, but atleast we have each other to cheer us up.
****And of course, we do some marites too.****
As usual, our conversation will not end without making doing some marites. But of course, what we talked about remain between us. We're not bad marites, we are the good samariteses. Lol!
Anyway, this article may be so halo, but you know I am just so happy to have someone I can share my sentiments too and someone I can lean on if things got so difficult. Someone who is rooting for me makes me go on in life. And never get tired on cheering on me.

Do you guys remember the cat I shared here before? That little cat my former roommate rescued and gave to Chenny? Kali's not home anymore.
What actually happened to Kali?
You can find the reason why Kali is not home anymore: https://read.cash/@MissJo/what-happened-to-kali-4498aef0
I just uploaded the article an hour ago. ☺️
Anyway, how are you beautiful people?
what happened to Kali?
***Hello beautiful people!***
***I hope you all are doing fine amidst of the shortcomings and uncertainties we may feel day by day. Always remember that a positive life is a happy life. ✨***
Do you guys remember the cat I shared here before? That little cat my former roommate rescued and gave to Chenny? Kali's not home anymore.
What actually happened to Kali?
Before having Kali in our home, Chenny, the owner was just fresh from a heartbreak that time. She truly loves pets, especially cat. That was the same time she asked me if she can bring a pet in our boarding house. Yes, she asked for my permission because I am actually like the leader or the head of our boarding house.
So me, thinking that having a pet for her will help her move on and be happy again, I allowed her to have one.
But in one condition;
She needs to make sure to cleab every mess Kali would make. And she agreed.
That agreement, which I thought will be realized. At first, it was okay for me for her not to clean Kali's mess because she was still devastated with the heartache. But as days goes by, three months, four, five, and almost a year now before what happened to Kali, none of what she promised happened.
Yes, she did buy some litter sand for Kali so that Kali's mess will not have bad odor. However, instead of cleaning Kali's mess everyday, it runs up to one to two weeks staying on that same place.
So imagine the smell we have in our home? Forgive me for the word, but it is disgusting!
That was the time, I asked her that if she cannot maintain Kali's cleanliness at home, I will highly suggest to bring her in their province.
Because imagine? Having Kali's mess around, with a bad odor and us eating our meals with it?
Then she promised to bring Kali to their province.
But nothing happened. So I asked her again, when.
"Next week, dae. I'll bring her home."
"Dae, can it be on my rest day? I am tired as of now."
All I did is agree. I have no choice.
To be honest, I am getting annoyed already. She was full of promises about her cat, but no actions were made. You know, if you love pet, it is okay to have one, but you have to be responsible with it because she is not the only one living in the boarding house.
So we gave her another chance.
We really set a specific date for her to bring Kali on their province. She agreed.
That specific same date was the same time I went to TCH with my workmates for rides. We went there around 12:00 PM after our shift, then I get home at around 5:00 PM. Slept right away because of tiredness from the rides.
That when I woke up at around 10:00 PM, I received a message from one of our boardmate, Lyn, that her boyfriend throw Kali away far from our house.
I was literally speechless. Like, it was not part of our discussion to throw Kali away if Chenny will not follow our deal.
I understand how disturbing Kali's odor in our house, but it never crossed my mind that they will throw Kali away. How I wish I was home that time, so I can atleast hold them back from throwing the poor cat away. I was too late.
The next day, I hardly asked Lyn and her boyfriend to find Kali. But to no avail, Kali was nowhere to be found.
I felt bad for Chenny. Even if I did nothing bad. I felt bad. But at the same time, only if she was responsible, it will not happe supposed to be. But still it was a wrong move.
And you know what's worst? They did not tell Chenny the truth. They just said that Kali, went outside and did not come back. I feel guilty because I know what really happened to Kali.
I messaged Lyn that I will be telling Chenny about the truth, because my consciensce is eating me up. I did nothing wrong, but keeping it from Chenny is.
Lyn said, she'll be the one to tell Chenny next week. Hopefully she will, because if not, then I'll have no choice but to tell Chenny myself.

when I miss her.
***Hello beautiful people!***
***I hope you all are doing fine amidst of the shortcomings and uncertainties we may feel day by day. Always remember that a positive life is a happy life. ✨***
**someone's pov.**
*Listening yesterday on Boiling Water's podcast in Spotify about Surviving Long Distance Relationship makes me misses her more. Her hugs, kisses, cuddles. Just being with her makes me the happiest person alive. How I wish I can be with her again!*
*But it's not as easy as one, two, three.*
*We started our relationship being in a long distance relationship. It was so fine. Like, a constant communication makes our relationship work. Not until, she decided to visit me. I enjoyed every single day I am with her. But since it was only a visit, she needs to be back home, where I can't do anything because she really has to.*
*It was not easy. But I need to accept it.*
*It's been 11 days. But I still misses her the same. The same feeling I felt from day one she got home. But as usual, I can't do anything aside from just missing her.*
*But you know, just missing her will not help. There, I decide to deprive myself from missing her a lot.*
*Because anyway, I know that in months I'll be seeing her again. I am just looking in a positive side aside from being sad without her by my side.*
**everytime I miss her;**
I directly go to my gallery, visit our pictures together and watch the time lapse videos we took. It makes me at least feel that she's with me.
**everytime I miss her;**
I always tell myself that great things are bound to happen that we need to be apart for a while.
**everytime I miss her;**
I always go to my calendar and count the days till I see once more.
**everytime I miss her;**
I always open my messenger and sent her messages saying I love and miss her so much.
**and everytime I miss her;**
I just look at the sky and tell myself at least we are still under the same sky, and feeling the same way. I just look at the sky and waiting for the right time to be with her again and watch the same sky together.
***Personally, being in a long distance relationship is never easy. Maybe at first it will be okay, but along the way, you'll realize that it is better to be together. However, there are things that you really need to sacrifice to keep your relationship work. Like instead of being sad because of how you miss your partner, it is a good thing that you look at the brighter side. That great things indeed are bound to happen for those who are really willing to wait.***
***And being in a ldr is a choice. You need to think twice, not only twice but many times, if you'll be okay with that kind of set up. Because it doesn't mean that if it works for other, it will work for you too. So it is really a choice.***
***A choice that you need to hold on to until you see your partner again.***
***And it is a good thing that while being away from each other, a constant communication should be practiced. Updates are needed and being open and honest with each other is a must. Both parties should be understanding enough that if the other one is not okay, the other should make a way to neutralize the situation and vice versa.***
***And personally, I find being in a long distance relationship exciting. Like everyday you have something to look forward. Like everyday you have the reason to keep going.***
***Kudos to all in a long distance relationship. Hoping for the best of best.***

Hopefully.
***Hello beautiful people!***
***I hope you all are doing fine amidst of the shortcomings and uncertainties we may feel day by day. Always remember that a positive life is a happy life. ✨***
*Looking how each days passed by made me think of what really future has for me.*
*We only have 88 days remaining and it will be a new year. I can't imagine how my 2023 will turn. I am too excited right? Who would not? I wanted to see who and I will become in that new year. But as always, I am hoping for the best.*
But as of the moment, I am manifesting things to happen before this year ends; good health and a sane mind for me and the whole famliy is always the top priority. But aside from that, here are the things I wish to happen before this year ends.
****Deploying us back to work from home.****
Rumors has been circulating in our office about the big possibility of us employees being sent to work from home set up again. How I wish it to be true! Some says that it is already the top agenda of our managers during their meetings. Some says that it has been approved and will start by next month. Some says it was put on hold. So who should I believe? Maybe, I should not expect too much for now. But you know, I can't wait to feel again the convenience of working at home. No more long rides and heavy traffic. How nice! Can you manifest it for me?
****Booking flight to somewhere outside Cebu.****
I haven't experience riding in a plane. So how I wish I could be! I have a plan in mind to go somewhere by next year, but as soon as possible, I wanted to book that trip this month or next for me to make sure that it will happen, no more excuses. I wanted to experience going to places outside Cebu and ride in a plane. You know I already have the itinerary on what to do, how to get there, and what to eat, as well as the budget and how much my expenses would be, my clothes to wear, and the specific dates. They are all in my mind. Ready and fixed. So hopefully, I'll get a chance to book this trip this month or next. Wish me luck!
****Start a side hustle.****
Truly, being the breadwinner and just relying in a single source of income is not a good idea. At first, I am not feeling it that difficult. But because of the inflation we are all experiencing right now, we really need to have a side hustle. I already starting looking for ways, studying a bit, and getting familiar on that side hustle I have in mind. So in case I have all the means to start, I already know what I should do. It may not be easy to start, but the willingness to learn will make it as easy as one, two, three. Let's go!
**What about you? What do you manifest before this year ends?**

Or Vice Versa.
***Hello beautiful people!***
***I hope you all are doing fine amidst of the shortcomings and uncertainties we may feel day by day. Always remember that a positive life is a happy life. ✨***
***Its just so amazing how life balances our daily activities. Like you know, it seems it is playing with us, in a good way though. Today, you are happy, the next day you're sad. Like, can't we not be happy at all times?***
***I guess we cannot. Because life seems to be a yes or no. You cannot feel happiness unless you experienced what sadness is. You cannot say you succees unless you already fail. You cannot say you won unless you lose. Or vice versa.***
***But you know, that what makes our life worth living. That what makes our life exciting. That what makes us to look for something good about to happen.***
**Personally right now and the pas few days, I am really not in the best days of my life. I do not want to eat, work and do anything. I just want to sleep, but my eyes and mind do not cooperate. I just want to lock myself in my room, just lie in bed and do nothing. I felt so helpless these past few days.**
**But you know, even if life is difficult, I chose to continue. Slowly. I need to wake up for work, do the thing, and move forward. It is difficult until now, but I am trying my best t o do better. Because if I don't, I will lose. I will lose in this fight I know I can do better and win.**
**Taking one step at a time is very slow and seems no progress at all, but I believe that taking a step will make a difference. A difference that will help me win this battle.**
**Right now, my mind is so occupied that I chose to put it in words here to at least ease it a little bit. And it helped. How amazing that by just writing it, makes me feel fine, at least.**
***Life is wonderful enough for us to enjoy it. No matter what happens, we must go on. Difficult if difficult, but that's how it was made. We have no choice but to go with the flow. But we always have a choice how we will go with this challenging flow. I hope everyone will find its way to continue from going.***
***If you feel helpless, I suggest you sing Rainbow by South Border. Trust me, it will help.***
***That's it for now. I just sneak out from work for 10 minutes to write this up as my mind is really occupied and I can't work fine if I will not release it here. Honestly, I am feeling better now.***

Thank you for being my 911.
***Hello beautiful people!***
***I hope you all are doing fine amidst of the shortcomings and uncertainties we may feel day by day. Always remember that a positive life is a happy life. ✨***
When you hear or read the numbers 911, automatically the idea that comes on your mind is emergency.
Well, truly it is. ***The three-digit telephone number "9-1-1" has been designated as the "Universal Emergency Number," for citizens throughout the United States to request emergency assistance. It is intended as a nationwide telephone number and gives the public fast and easy access to a Public Safety Answering Point (PSAP).*** https://www.nena.org/page/911overviewfacts
But for some reason, it is not the literal 911 that we need all the time. Sometimes, it is more than the real 911.
How's your life going? Is it doing good or something is not going well right now?
If you are in good condition right now, please stay so. And if not, please know that some days are bad. But always remember that bad days does not mean bad life.
Right now, I am really not doing good. I may not share here why. Let's just say as it is. But, I am trying to be. As I should.
But despite of being not well, ***I am just so happy that I have my 911's in life. My own 911's.***
Ofcourse, number one for me is our Lord. If not because of Him, I may not be in the right state of mind already. But because of His mercy, I still be able to think well and stay sane.
And Him, being our good Lord gave me a family I can lean on.
My sister and dad are one of my 911's. I already told them what I am going through right now and decided not to inform my mom because she is still trying to get well from fever and I do not want to stress her out even more. Yet, my sister told her still. And you know what my mom said? ***"Nganung di man ko nimo ingnon nga imo man kong mama?"*** And my heart really burst in tears after hearing her words. Like, even in seconds, I was able to forget the burden I have just with her words. My mom is really my best 911. I couldn't ask for more. She's been so good since day one. I can't thank her enough with that. My mom really deserves the world.
My sister and younger brother are one of my 911's. Liam also, my niece. Just by talking to them, I felt so relieved. Like, they have this positive energy that relaxes me. Especially if my not so young brother, asks something from me and make lambing, it gives me more energy to continue and strive hard to provide what he wants. Just by talking to them, I feel like I am already okay. Like the burden I have is already lifted. They don't know how big the courage they gave to me.
And ofcourse, my ***loml.*** You're always present since day one. You never failed to make me happy. You're always available for me. Just by seeing and talking to you, I feel like I am okay. Your bright smile and kakulitan, eases my mind. You never failed to make my heart jump out of happiness. Please continue to be my sunshine.

loml visits Cebu.
***Hello beautiful people!***
***I hope you all are doing fine amidst of the shortcomings and uncertainties we may feel day by day. Always remember that a positive life is a happy life. ✨***
It was supposed to be last July. The original plan. However because of some circumstances it was moved to September. It was only a week if it was pushed through last July, but when moved to September it became 10 days. See? Everything really happens for a reason.
So what I am talking about?
It is about @dziefem 's visit here in Cebu. It was last September 16 when she arrived here. Her arrival was around 8:30 AM, but because of my excitement, I arrived at the airport to fetch her at around 6 AM. See? I'm such an early bird. But who would not? It's my first time seeing her in person.
And tadaaaaaaa! She finally arrived.
Welcome to Cebu!
I am in so much happiness to finally see her. Imagine, she travelled all the way from Nueva Ecija to Cebu. I felt so honored. Lol!
Anyway, upon her arrival I brought her to Jollibee for breakfast because I know she's already hungry waiting for her flight. Then we headed home right away after the breakfast.
When we get home, she supposed to be sleeping because of her flight but to no avail, she cannot sleep. Maybe because the environment is new to her. But still we tried to take a power nap because by the afternoon, we'll be seeing @mommykim and @BreadChamp .
Unfortunately, @BreadChamp wasn't able to join us in Sugbo Mercado because she was suffering from toothache. We understand her though. So we just continued the plan.
Here are some of our photos during the dinner at Sugbo Mercado:
Then next to that day, we went to Simala Shrine. I've been planning to go there even before, and I am just happy that it finally happened with her.
Next to this will be some highlights of her visit here in Cebu.
That's us in JCentre Mall. We actually went there to process my Pag-Ibig Account and correct my birthplace.
We also have our lunch in the same place.
Then we head over to Ayala Malls to play in Timezone. It was such a good time. We spent most of our time doing karaoke. How I wish I can upload the video here. It was such great time. We played different games. It was such a funny day.
Before we went home, we ordered some waffles and milktea for our snacks. Then head home.
Then the next next day, we went to SM City as my brother in law asked me to inquire some laptop. Good thing as we are also planning to go to Kultura for souvenirs. That's us having our mirror selfie. And @dziefem on the other side looking so cute and sexy.
Then we just have some pizza for snack/dinner before going home.
And since her birthday is coming, I decided to surprise her with flowers before she get back to her home.
Advanced Happy Birthday! 🥂 I'm glad she was happy with my little surprise.
And since her going home is inevitable, last September 26, I sent her to the airport.
Airport indeed is the happiest, yet the saddest place as well. But of course, we cannot force things to happen just the way we wanted it to be.
But still, I am looking forward in seeing this lovely lady again.
We got a lot of fun on her 10 days here in Cebu. Some we just stayed at home for rest and watching vlogs. Yet, we still enjoyed each other's company.
See you again, real soon!

Welcome on board, self! ✨
Thanks @dzibee for inviting me here. Been so inactive with the last version of Noise Cash. Not gonna promise though to be active here, but I guess I should try my best. Hopefully. 🤞
By the way, it's raining hard in Cebu right now. A watersprout even caught on cam earlier this afternoon, you can check it here: https://fb.watch/fqHdPoEeHl/
I am not sure what caused it to happen though.
Anyway, I'll be off for now. I still need to sleep for my duty later.
Will keep in touch! 👋💕
What's with August?
Just in bed. With lights on. A ceiling fan. Open windows.
That's what I am doing right now.
Wait. And looking at my white ceiling too.
Thinking.
Thinking if this is the path I should be taking. Thinking if this is the best way to live my life. Thinking if my choices are right.
Looking back. That was about four years ago. I used to only sleep about four hours a day because of a lot of college works. Lesson Plans, Instructional Materials, Projects, Research, Practices, and a lot more. A class from seven to seven. Yet, my body and mind that times feels so fine. I am still happy. I can say I am still living.
I feel tired. But it was bearable.
Compared to what I am feeling today while looking at my ceiling.
No school works, no projects, no research. I can even sleep for more than four hours. Yet, my body feels so tired everyday.
Is this how our 20's works?
Or is it how August works for me?
Last year of 2021. I felt the same thing. Tired. Lifeless. Hopeless. I feel like, I can't do anything. I feel like, I am not doing my best.
Like last year, I am always on my bed. Just doing nothing. Just thinking if the decisions I made is what I should be doing. A lot of questions.
That sometimes I came to a point asking, why? Why I am feeling this way? Why I need to go through this phase? Why I need to feel lifeless, hopeless, and thinking this is the only thing I should do?
Like last year, I feel like I am just moving because I need to. I am just living because it is what I should do.
I don't understand.
What's with August?
Is it just my mindset or this is how my life would be?
I am too young. I still have a lot of things I wanted to do. I still have a lot of dreams I wanted to reach.
I wanted to be happy.
I wanted to take a good rest where when I wake up, I feel like I really rested.
No overthinkings. Just going with the flow.
Can I have it?
Can I be happy?

Team + Foods and some extras.
***Hello beautiful people!***
***I hope you all are doing fine amidst of the shortcomings and uncertainties we may feel day by day. Always remember that a positive life is a happy life. ✨***
For the past two months of inactive here, I got a lot of things to share to you all. I wasn't even shared here how my birthday went last June. But maybe that will be my next article.
For now, let me share to you some events happened. And of course with food and extras.
I forgot to share to you as well here that from my original shift at work which is 4:00 AM to 12:00 NN, I was transferred to 8:00 PM to 4:00 AM, which means I was transferred also to a new team.
I was a bit conscious with my team because most of them are tenured. They are even more than 10 years in the company compared to me who is only 3 years, I'm really new. But good thing, my new teammates are really approachable and kind.
Anyway, here are the small gatherings we have with the team.
**Breakfast at Seda Hotel.**
My pocket literally cried because of this. I mean, we paid 600 pesos each for a breakfast. Though, it is a buffet, I really can eat a small amount of food especially the food served in breakfast. Only if there is a dried fish with a very sour and spicy vinegar, I will literally love it.
But yes. It was actually the typical breakfast. Hot choco, egg, bacons, and the like. Calculating the amount I ate, it will only cost about 60 pesos. Lol!
I was really supposed not to join the team breakfast since I know it will cost me money, but for a respect for the team and knowing I am new, I just erase the thought that time of money I'll spent and just enjoy the moment.
**Best in Attendance.**
During our breakfast, our supervisor surprisingly conducted a short program just to give a light mood with the team. She prepared some awards for us. The awards were: Best in Attendance, OT Warrior, Top Agent, and Survey Warrior of the month of June.
And to my surprise, I bagged the Best in Attendance award. I was literally shocked becàuse who knows I'll have it. I used to have some absences before, but now I even got an award. Just a simple thing, but means a lot to me.
**Jollibee by the office.**
This was a treat by our company. Almost every month, our company provided us with this kind of treat especially if the team is doing good with the matrix our center set for us. Last time it was donuts and pizza, and this time, Jollibee. Bida ang saya! Thank you, Q.
**Happy Birthday, Trish!**
Trish is part of our team. She's not on the picture since it was her rest day, yet she still managed to send foods for her birthday. What a generous lady she is. She sent us carbonara and a cordon bleu. I used to not like carbonara because what I ate before if not too creamy, too dry. But Trish's carbonara was just amazing. It was delicious.
Happy Birthday, Trish!
**And here's some extras!**
**Boss Manok with Friends.**
Catching up after some busy work days. It was me on yellow orange, Chenny on black, and Lyn on brown with her boyfriend.
We just have unlimited wings with cucumber lemonade and that was it. Our tummy was filled with joy because of the food we ate.
And of course, catching up will not be complete without some chikas.
**My Birthday Treat.**
This was last June, post birthday celebration with my close friends at work. They're not my teammates, but real friends.
I just bought four boxes of pizza. We are actually seven here but the other three came late because they were stuck on chat and wasn't able to put theirselves on break.
*And that's all. Another talk about food all over and right now, literally my tummy is asking for food. Got to prepare a breakfast for now, I'll be back to read yours later.*

Taud Taud Na.
***Hello beautiful people!***
***I hope you all are doing fine amidst of the shortcomings and uncertainties we may feel day by day. Always remember that a positive life is a happy life. ✨***
Has anyone here observed how days are fast moving? Like it was once the 1st of January 2022, and now, we're only five months away for 2023. It seems to be like a snap of a finger and a blink of an eye. Just amazing as it is!
Just amazing as it is how I was once so drown in this platform, that being drown here is the best thing ever happened to me. That I'll never allow to miss a single day not trying to read and write, that if ever I missed a day, which no one can prevent, I really made sure to compose two just patch in my absences. But what happened?
It's been a while. Really been a while. Taud Taud Na!
Looking back, I seemed to almost know everything about you. I seemed to know all of you personally. I seemed to be walking on the same path as you, dreaming the same dream, and doing the same thing we all love to do.
Sad to say, I was lost.
It was a month ago that I last uploaded my entry. With five likes, four comments, and 20 people who have seen my work, and Rusty with other generous giver leaving me with $10.68.
And looking back at my profile, I missed being called MissJo from your comments and replies. And just now, everything seemed to have a flashback. The challenges I entered to, the games, the questions and answers. What happened to my bio, "Keep writing."? I wasn't able to keep the promise. And it guilts me.
Should I continue?
This is the last draft I have in my account. A question mark was even written there. Because when I drafted this down, I really do not know what to write anymore.
I felt that I changed a lot. Changes that gave me no good. For real.
What's happening?
Five months! I still have five months to make the most of this year.
I'll try my best to turn this Taud Taud Na to Karon Na!

Three R's.
***Hello beautiful people!***
***I hope you all are doing fine amidst of the shortcomings and uncertainties we may feel day by day. Always remember that a positive life is a happy life. ✨***
How are you, people? Things here in my end are getting hectic day by day since I started returning to office for work. The long sleeps I used to have was gone, my tight budgetting was really affected that sometimes I almost run out of funds, but good thing still happens everytime I experienced such, me getting homesick still even though I'm used to being away from home. And all other things that made me missing in action. Not just here, but also in my personal life. Friends are inviting to go out, but declining is the only option I have since all I wanted to do is rest and rest and rest.
And know what, seems that the last article I have; ***This will be the last*** feels really the last article I'll have here. But for real, everyday I kept on visiting this platform and trying my best to make an effort but to no avail, I always fail. Not because I do not like it here anymore, but because I'm really tired these past few days. https://read.cash/@MissJo/this-will-be-the-last-cc5b4996
**Nevertheless, here I am. Again.**
**Tomorrow is a big day for me.**
It will be my first year here in this amazing platform! I am more than happy to be this far despite of being missing from time to time. For sure, everyone here is in so much happiness for being here.
Anyway, I will not be talking about my 12 months stay here rather, I wanted to try to do these 3 R's I saw on one of my social media.
**RESET.**
**RESTART.**
**REFOCUS.**
*Forgetting for some reason is one of the hardest thing to do, yet one of the most satisfying feeling ever. Personally, forgetting doesn't really mean removing what happened from your mind, rather trying to accept what had happened, learn from it, see some hope from it, and starting over.*
*And starting over used to be the most difficult thing to do knowing we will start from scratch again, yet one of the most wonderful thing to happen knowing for another chance we have something to look forward. We have something to hope for. We have something to work on. And for some reason, that's where the spark starts.*
*Then once we get a chance to start over, easier said than done, but this is the moment we need to put our focus again. Taking steps one at a time again. Taking slow progress as it is still a progress. And focusing again for another wonderful success along the way.*

This will be the last.
***A letter for you two.***
Life has been so hectic this moment. We'll never know when will be the end. We'll never know when everything will stop. We'll never know if what we are aiming for will really turn out to be real. Thus, stop doing what you think is wrong. And start doing what you think is best.
But can I even tell you two what to do? When everything I said, say, and will say will not matter as you believe what you two are doing is right?
It's been years when I said NO. It's been years when I said STOP. It's been years when I said this is not what it supposed to be.
You kept on telling me, yes we will stop. And I kept on hoping that finally you'll listen. But I was wrong. Totally wrong!
What I said seemed to just enter your ears and just past through the other. What I said seemed to be nothing and will not matter. Your words doesn't match your actions. And that svcks me out!
Don't get me wrong! All I want is the goodness for both of you. All I want is for you two to realize that what you are doing is wrong. All I want is for you two is to find peace within your hearts.
I am getting tired. No! I am already tired. I'm already tired listening to rants from one of you. I am tired giving advices. Today you rant, you seemed to listen, you agreed to me. Then the next day, I'll see you both doing the opposite. Are you two playing with me?
You know what? Both of you are getting toxic and toxic. Sorry for the word. But it is what it is!
I never imagined myself seeing you two in that situation. I never imagined myself that I'll be getting stressed out with things I didn't even do and made. I never imagined getting disappointed to you two. This is not what I am expecting to happen.
You're old enough to know what's wrong and right. You're old enough to know if what will you do will affect someone. Yet, you continue doing so. Both of you are selfish!
You know what friendship means. But you seemed not to know how it works. Only if you listened to me the moment I said no, it shouldn't turn out this way.
Please stop and listen! Where was the promise you made? Will it forever stay as promise? Are you not planning to take it to action? I'm begging you, please do it. It's all for you.
***To you:***
Stop being selfish.
Stop being self centered.
Stop being manipulative.
Stop playing victim.
Stop thinking that the world revolves only on you.
Stop what you are doing right now.
***Instead.***
Put limits.
Know your worth.
Be independent.
Keep your promise.
Do what is right.
***And to you:***
Stop being a svcker of attention.
Stop doing things you are not supposed to do.
Stop making a person your world.
***Instead.***
Pick up the responsibility you left.
Know your worth.
Be a man.
*This will be the last time I'll be advising you. This will be the last time I will say my say. This will be the last time I'll care.* ***This will be my last letter for the both of you.***

A life update that nobody ask for.
***Hello beautiful people!***
***I hope you all are doing fine amidst of the shortcomings and uncertainties we may feel day by day. Always remember that a positive life is a happy life. ✨***
***Here's a life update that nobody ask for****, but I am still willing to share with you all. You know, Read Cash is not just a platform where we can earn, I am just so happy that this one became one of a shoulder I can lean on. In a way I can rant, share my happiness, a snippet of my plans, and everything. This platform feels like a person you can talk to that will never judge you. Amazing, isn't it?*
***So here, how's me? Well, so far so good! Let's see.***
**Update on work.** I can say, it is in indeed so far, so good. I'll be turning four weeks working on site now and so far I already adjusted on it. And finally, my shift changed to 8:00 PM to 4:00 AM. I am so glad that I will not be having any struggle with the transportation. And of course, I can be able to render post shift overtime and my night differential will be a lot bigger this time. You see, I am a sucker of high pay. Lol!
**Update on finances.** When December 2021 came in, I am already debt free that time. As in no loans, no debt from anyone. Sad to say, typhoon Odette came it caused a lot of damages in our place that money was needed to bounce back from what happened. My savings are not enough to fill in the needs, that I got no choice but to get some loans. Which means, I am not debt free as of the moment. I am a bit sad because my goal is really as much as possible not to get any loans, but things really sometimes will not get the way we wanted it to be. I really need to borrow money to build a house as my earnings here are not enough, but I am still thankful though as the money I borrowed goes into something worth it. Hopefully before this year end, I'll be debt free again and please, no unexpected happenings again. Praying for it.
**Update on personal.** This one is so far so good. Despite of having debts, I am still making sure to be happy and sane. That's what important. I need to be happy and sane to continue what I am doing. I am still with the same circle of friends. I still can do what I wanted to do. Eat the foods I like. Buy things I needed. Buy things I want if ever I have spare money. And a lot more good things.
**Update on spiritual.** God knows how I am grateful for the blessing of life I receive day by day. I may not be able to visit a church every Sunday, but I always make sure to spare a time to pray and give thanks to the Lord. God has been so good to me and it is just right to give back the goodness He's been giving to us. As we are trying to grow our personal life, we need to grow our spiritual life as well.
And that's it. A simple and a little update on me. How about you? How's life going?
Life may be sad sometimes, but always know that the sadness we feel day by day is what makes our life more exciting. Because everyday, we are challenged to grow and thrive. And it is so exciting that happiness is coming through our way. And it is so satisfying that at the end, we are getting things and happiness that we wanted.

Exactly nine days today, I finally received my GCash Mastercard. It was earlier than expected. From the confirmation message I received, it was indicated there that it will be 10 business days. I am not complaining though. I am instead happy to finally have it on hand.
Anyway, I am sure that some of you here already have it. But for the sake of those who haven't yet, I'll share to you how to do it step by step.
*Open your Gcash App using your 4-digit PIN. Make sure you are connected to a WIFI or mobile data and that you have a strong internet connection to make sure the process will be faster.*
*On the main page, click on* ***View All Gcash Services.***
*You'll be now routed on this page, and you need to click on* ***Cash Out*** *option.*
*After that you'll these choices, Deliver or Pick Up. And you'll choose* ***Deliver*** *for more convenience.*
*After clicking on deliver, you'll be routed on this page where you need to fill in your* ***Recipient Information****,* ***Delivery Information****, and you need to click on the box accepting the* ***Terms and Condition.***
*After that, you need to click on Next. Make sure that you have enough funds on your Gcash Account as there will be a payment of* ***215 pesos; 150 for the card itself and 65 for the delivery fee.***
*The payment will be automatically deducted from the balance on your account.*
*And there, you'll receive a confirmation about your order and that you need to wait for* ***10 working days.***
As I mentioned above, my Gcash Mastercard arrived earlier than expected. And I thought it can be used right away. I was wrong for a while as it still needs to be activated. I'll walk you through on how to activate the card.
*You need to open again your Gcash App using your 4-digit PIN. Then you go to* ***Profile*** *and select* ***My Linked Accounts.***
*You'll be routed on this page after clicking My Linked Accounts and you will now click on* ***Gcash Mastercard.*** *That option is grayed out at first of you haven't linked any card yet. You can linked up to three Gcash Mastercards by the way.*
*On this part, you need to fill in the* ***last four digits of the card number*** *you received and the* ***Virtual Account Number*** *that you can see at the back of the card.*
*Then you click on* ***Next****. After that, you'll be routed to a page where you need to create a* ***6-digit PIN*** *for your mastercard. You need to create a very secured combination fir security purposes.*
*Your MPIN; which is the 4-digit PIN that you are using to open your GCash App is different from this 6-digit PIN for your card.*
*Make sure to take note of it if needed just in case you will forget it.*
*Just in case you will lost the card, you also have an option to deactivate the mastercard and apply for a new one.*
And that's it. Your Gcash Mastercard is now ready to use. You can use this card to withdraw money from any BancNet ATM.
Personally, I find this card convenient as if ever I have a balance on my Gcash App, I do not need to transfer it over to my bank card and doesn't to pay for transfer fees.
One thing, it is as well good for students that has work online and needs a card for salary pay outs that do not have any ATM Cards from any bank yets.
Still, we need to make sure to not share any information about our GCash Mastercard for security purposes.
And last thing, your Gcash Account should be **verified** to avail this GCash Mastercard.

***I hope you all are doing fine amidst of the shortcomings and uncertainties we may feel day by day. Always remember that a positive life is a happy life. ✨***
It was a long week when we experienced heavy rains in our area. Day and night. Non stop. I am just thankful that here in our area is not a flood prone. But for real, I feel bad for those badly affected with the heavy rain.
Anyway, I like rain. Not that heavy one which can damage lives. Just the normal rain. Why? Because it keeps the surrounding cold and when its cold I can sleep peacefully.
With that, for the last weeks I was able to sleep well because the cold weather. Not until yesterday. It was the opposite.
Mr. Sun seems to be enjoying his day. It was too hot yesterday that I really experienced difficulty in sleeping.
I decided to lie in bed at around 3:00 PM. At first it was okay, but minutes after I felt so hot. I opened the window for the air to come in, turned on my ceiling fan, and I even get my hand fan. Unfortunately, it became hotter because of the exhaust of the ceiling fan. Good thing, I have another clip fan with me. I turned off the ceiling fan and use the other one. It gave better service, but minutes later it became hot again.
I am already too sleepy. But the hot weather is not allowing me to sleep. I'm almost annoyed!
For some reason, I tried to ignore the weather and tried to sleep because sometimes it works for me. But not this time. I kept on rolling and rolling and rolling back and forth on my bed just to sleep. I listened to music. And did everything I can to sleep. But to no avail, I can't still sleep.
I decided to wore the thinnest sleeping clothes I have thinking it might help. But still not. Piled two of my blankets on my bed thinking it is my matress that makes my body hot. But still, no.
I am really sleepy and I am getting annoyed and annoyed. I am slowly getting a head ache. That's me when I lack of sleep.
Because I badly wanted to sleep, I have no choice but to remove my upper garment. Good thing, it was only me in my room and the lights are all off. With that decision, I just saw myself falling asleep already.
It took me almost two hours to finally fall asleep, after doing everything I can just to sleep.
Right now, I am thinking of getting an aircon for my convenience but I am also thinking of the electric bill by the end of the month.
As much as I wanted to sleep in our mini sala, I cannot because we have Kali, our cat that keeps on playing with my hair and sometimes bites my feet. Oh, Kali!
But hopefully, it will rain a little just to give a little coldness in the surrounding. Just a little!

Just this day!
***Hello beautiful people!***

**Yay!**
Here's my second article for this month after being in hiatus for three weeks. I really missed being here. Writing, interacting, and reading other's work. I missed Rusty as well. Read Cash has been part of my daily routine and I am just so sad that I stopped for weeks. But as you can see, I am trying hard to be active again. **Wish me luck!**
*Anyway for today's article, let me just share how my day went. Bear with me for this kind of content for now. I'll promise to write a worth to read one next time.*
I was so happy seeing $9.31 on my **Welcome Back!** article. *Seems like Rusty missed me too? Oh well! Keep on missing me Rusty Bestie. Lol!*
But not only Rusty, I am thankful to other users who gave me upvotes and leave some comments on my new article. Your support never fail to amaze me! I'll try my best to get back to you all.
And of course, after a long eight hours of talking and chatting with people I do not know, I surely deserved this meal. *Oh Jobee! I missed you too.* It seems already weeks also the last time I ate in Jollibee. This is a reward as well for me for surviving two weeks working on site again. You know, food is life. Food makes me happy. Food makes me alive.
And look at this convo. Lol! I am being *marites* again. No don't get me wrong, I am not eavesdropping, I just can really hear the two boys next to my table in Jollibee since their voices are too loud.
Anyway, what they talked about doesn't affect anybody. No names were dropped. It is just the two of them talking about the girl one of them like in work. I find them cute talking about it though!
The guy who likes his workmate kept on asking his friend to stalk the girl on facebook and chat her and just make friends with her. And this friend kept on saying no because he was shy. And this guy kept on insisting, that this friend gave up and just do what his friend asked. *Oh! What a friendship!*
And I do not know what happened next since I already left after finishing my meal. I wish him good luck though.
Then I just get home. Walking through the hot crossroad to wait for a mini bus going home. Good thing, the bus is air-conditioned that I got to relax while riding.
And that's it for today guys! I'll try to read atleast five articles today before going to sleep. I still need to wake up by 10:00 PM later since I'll be rendering a preshift overtime at work.

Welcome back!
***Hello beautiful people!***

OMG! Where was I?
It's been three weeks now from the last time I have my article uploaded here. That was too long already. And I miss it being here. For real. No joke!
And as you can see, I am trying to get back on track again. Yes. Trying. Lol! Hopefully I can make it this time again.
Anyway the question is, where was I?
It was last March 18, when I saw that my leave application and request day off was approved upon checking out our verint. It was a total of five days off.
It was last March 31, April 1 - 5, 2022. I was so happy because finally I can go back home again. Yes. You read it right. I went home in the province for five days.
I intentionally set that dates because it was my mama's birthday. I was so happy that I was home celebrating her birthday.
We just stayed at my sister's place because it has electricity and internet there. I felt so happy to be with them again. And for sure, my mama was happy too. She even sent me a message when I get back here in Cebu how happy she was that I spent sometime for her birthday. Because why not? Right?
Then one of the days, I also met my college bestie. Sadly, it was only the two of us because the other one is cannot be reached, and the other one is far from us. Nevertheless, we enjoyed each other's company still. Chika there. Chika here.
There. That's one of the reason why I became inactive here. I just love spending my time with them. Will see them soonest, again!
Another thing that made me inactive here is because of me returning to site for work. Gosh! For real, I am so tired already. My body is still adjusting.
Because you know, I need to wake up two and a half hours before my shift to prepare myself, cook foods for my meal at work, and another waiting time for transportation. The transportation is really the most difficult, because aside from the few jeepneys passing our place as early as 2:00 AM, I am also afraid to get robbed in the way. I do not want to ride a taxi or a motorcycle as it will cost me 100 to 150 pesos per ride. That's too expensive for me. I am just trying to keep myself safe everyday.
My body really had a difficulty on adjusting to my new work pattern. From almost 10 hours sleep working from home, to almost 5 hours of sleep working on site real quick. That is why, I became inactive here. I am very tired already travelling everyday and all I wanted to do is lie in bed and sleep the moment I got home.
But I am still trying to adjust and for sure I can make it. This week is my second week. Long days to go before my rest day. Fighting!
Anyway, I welcome myself back here. Hopefully, I can get back on track again.
I miss you all here! Catch up soonest.

Another beautiful song by BTS, **Mikrokosmos**.
The song seems to be a message in between the BTS and the ARMY *(the fandom)* about wanting to see each other, share the smile, share the same dreams, and shine together.
**Shine**. For some reasons, it is difficult to somehow show what we truly feel, to show how we wanted to reach a dream, to show the ways how we wanted to improve. Not because we can't, but because of the thought of how the society will react on our own ways. Because our ways may be different from them and we are afraid to be criticized. And we ended up turning off the light shone to us.
**Dream**. We were born to have dreams. Dreams that we think will make a difference. Dreams that we wanted to have to see how we will be in the future. There's no cost in dreaming. All for free. We can all dream as much as we can. But sometimes, we ended up questioning, is this dream all worth it? Not because you do not know how to make it, but sometimes you are afraid others may see it is not for you. And we ended up staying on that dream and do nothing.
**Smile**. The key to being happy. The start of happiness is to know how to smile. With all the small thing in life, with all the disappointment, we need to make sure to smile and be positive. A little smile on our face can change a thing.
**SHINE. DREAM. SMILE.**
This song just really wanted to remind us that this world may not support us on what we want, we still need to be reminded that someone is rooting for us. It doesn't need to be everyone, it can only be a someone. A someone that is willing to stay with us. A someone that is willing to support us and believe in us that we can make it. That we can reach that dream.
That the world may seems so big for us, but we can be bigger because of our dreams.
***That we can continue to shine, dream, and smile.***

Earlier while on shift, I binge watch all music videos and concert performances of BTS to get me away from boredom.
Then I came across with this song, **So What!**
With the title itself, it already entails a positivity in life. *Well, most of their songs are actually inspirational.* Just like how they say so what just means we can always go on with life. That no matter what happen, we need to move forward. Easier said than done, but it is the best way to do and an option to choose.
Life itself is full of what's, why's, when's, and how's. There's no definite answer. Which sometimes stops us from doing with the thought it may fail us. We're afraid. Who would not? There's no such thing as sure in this life. Even the most successful person may go down again and experienced failure. But we need to as well bear in mind, that those who have nothing, those who started from the scratch became a well-known person. You just need to wait for your perfect time.
And while waiting, we need to do the best that we can. We need to enjoy life. We need to go with the flow. If we need to cry, let's all cry. If we need to get hurt, let's get hurt. It's not how many times you fail and fall, it is how many times you bounce back that matters.
**So what? Let go!**

Am I a good student? What do you think?
***Hello beautiful people!***
***I hope you all are doing fine amidst of the shortcomings and uncertainties we may feel day by day. Always remember that a positive life is a happy life. ✨***
*I apologize for being inactive here. I just kept on uploading articles but I haven't interacted with you yet. I do not know why. It is just that, while reading my can't absorb the things I am reading and I am afraid I may just comment nonsense on your articles. But I'll try my best to be back on track this time.*
Anyway, it is already the 27th of the month and we are about to say goodbye to March. Seems like days are quiet fast right?
And by the way, I run across @Kleah97 's article yesterday about the Never Have I Ever - Student's Edition. I wanted to answer to answer such as well and let's see if I am a good student before. https://read.cash/@Kleah97/entry-never-have-i-ever-have-challenge-student-edition-4d4fef58
**Skipped A Class.**
***I HAVE.*** I guess many times. Some may see me as a good student with no bad record, but I really have. It was during my 4th year high school and Filipino subject was our class. We decided to skipped it and went to my friends house to just cook pancit canton and make an orange juice. And one thing, we did not pass on our main gate as our school guard will not allow us to do, so we decided to look for passage at the back of our TLE Building and we're out. It was my first time. I am not proud of it though, but it was such an experienced.
**Cheat On An Exam.**
If sharing an answer is considered cheating, well I would say many times, ***I have***. I am really not selfish on giving answers during exams as long as I am sure with my answers.
But if this refers to really the "cheating thing", ***I haven't***. I cannot imagine myself being happy with my score out of cheating. And I am afraid I will be caught doing it. That will be an embarrassment.
**Forged My Parent's Signature.**
Gosh! ***I have***. Many times. Everytime I do not feel like going to school, I'll create my own excuse letter and sign it with my mom's signature. Only if the school is very strict about it, I may be in jail by now.
How I wish I can just ask my mom to sign me an excuse letter every time I do not feel like going to work this time. But, yeah! It's way too different.
**Make Fake Excuses For Being Late.**
I am not sure if I have, but I felt ***I haven't.*** Because I really hate being not on time. I just do not want that I will be the center of attraction when I enter the classroom. And about excuses, I do not lie about it. The main reason I have before for getting late was not having a good transportation. You know in province, we only have a limited means of transportation. And as much as possible, I need to be at the bus stop as early as I can.
But in work? I have. A lot of times. I'm a not so good role model.
**Bullied Anyone At School.**
If with friends, I have. But in moderation because I know they will get hurt still. But with others, ***I haven't.*** I mean, why should I? Who am I to do such bullying? We do not have any reasons to do it.
It is never okay to bully anybody.
