Picking roseleaf raspberry which randomly grew at the back of our house. They're commonly known as "pinit" here in Sagada. It's always fun when we spot them while hiking or just passing through the forest. Happy Sunday everyone!

I set my alarm at 5pm so that I'd get to sleep for 2 hours but I woke up after an hour of sleep only cause it's too hot. I'm sweating all over and it says 28° C on my phone.
FALSE ALARM We saw a huge smoke coming from the other barangay near us. My dad and brothers hurriedly drove there with all the buckets we could find in the house. Our neighbors, mostly the males, also ran to the direction where the smoke was coming from. Not long after, my dad and brothers came back and I wondered why. Turns out it was a mountain which was on fire. Hayss. It's summer again and its the time of the year when people take advantage of the hot weather. Every…
I was tryna sleep when my sister woke me up saying we need to go fix the guestrooms. Some relatives from another province (Kalinga) sent my mom a message that they're coming to sleep at our house. They attended the wake of an elder from a nearby barangay. The rooms haven't been used for a long time so they need some cleaning. We hurriedly swept and mopped the floor then fixed the beddings. Glad we managed to finish fixing the rooms before the guests arrived. Now, I'm having…
Pogs has been feeling sad for a few days now. She gave birth to 4 cuties but one had gone too soon to the rainbow bridge😔
Sharing an achievement today🤭. I got perfect scores in two of my quizzes in the subject "The contemporary world". I'll be sleeping with a smile on tonight🥳🥳
It's been years since I last visited this place. This was my home during my childhood days😆. I learned how to swim here. I'd get sunburned for staying here the whole day and when I go home, my grandpa would give me an earful ehehe🙊 The place is called Pangabuwan. I forgot the origin of it's name but it was a story about the moon (Buwan) and some other thing.
Our love must be not just words or mere talk, but something active and genuine. Words are very powerful. Through our words, we can change others and through others, we can be changed. Thus we must be careful with our words for they can become our truth that can affect ourselves and other people. Truth causes us to move. GOOD MORNING!
Left the window open and a grasshopper came in. It's been awhile since I saw one. I remember Aesop's fable on The Ant and the Grasshopper to which the moral of the story was to always be prepared for disasters.
I was so in the mood to watch and listen to the recorded lectures uploaded by my instructors but my internet connection is not cooperating ugh😒. The videos keep lagging whenever I play one. I tried waiting for it to load again whenever it stops but it's tiring. I really wish the internet providers in this country improve their services. I'll go to bed instead. Hope the signal will be better tomorrow. Good night!
Sharing again this vast blue sky feat. the moon (can you see it? my phone camera is not that great 😂). GOOD MORNING!
Even the puppies are practicing social distancing 😂 Was going to change their bedding when I saw them like this. I guess the weather's too hot for them also.
As you gain more experience, you will find healthier ways to express how you feel. One human life is a constant learning and unlearning even for those whom you believe are old already. Moments of strong emotions are moments of truth trying to unconceal itself to you. You get angry, elated, or extremely sad because the possible truth affects you that much. Thus, always try to pause and listen to where the truth might be telling you and be at peace with it. Good day!
Been busy with my exams and have been inactive here for awhile. Anyways, It's raining! The plants are happy. After days of only hot weather, we are glad the rain is here to clench our crops' thirst☺️
My brain cells need to fuel up as I take my exam so I'm devouring whatever's available in the house. It's 10:40pm and I'm having pineapples, watermelon, and cucumber as snacks🤭. I usually eat these when the sun's high up in the sky since they're refreshing but I'm also having them tonight cause we ran out of bread and I'm not used to having coffee without baked goods.
Yesterday, my grade 12 adviser informed us that our yearbook is set for claiming. Since I'm currently in my hometown, I asked my older brother to go get it. He told me he doesn't have money to pay for the jeepney fare🙄 or.... maybe he just didn't want to🤷. I was still hoping he'd go though. Then earlier this morning, I remembered that I have yet to claim my tuition refund from last school year so I told him about it and wow! the excitement😒. The refund is about $50 so of…
Having lunch at Ubwa Falls/Blue Lagoon today. I came here with my younger bros. We all thought we needed a break from our modules and that it would also be great to go for a swim in this hot weather. We packed rice and tomatoes from home, grabbed chicken from the store on the way to the falls, then took turns in grilling as we played in the water. Now it's time for a boodle fight!😋
It's time to go home. I'm hungry again after staying and playing in the water for a few hours. We walked downwards going to the falls and now we need to hike back up. So tiring😑. This is the only thing I don't like whenever we come swimming here, but it's okay since I got to enjoy and de-stress🙂
At around 7:30pm earlier as I was taking my quiz on my mobile phone, an email came notifying me of a sign-in attempt from a suspicious app using my google account. I was confused cause that account was made solely for my bitcoin.com wallet app 2 months ago when I started here in noise.cash. Also, I never used that account in other devices aside from my cellphone. 🤔
I put down my pen and picked up the broom and mop. These are my weapons for today, to fight off the dust and dirt around the house. It's Saturday and I don't have that many school requirements left to do so I'll clean and fix things in the house instead.👩🔧
Jesus is the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for his sheep. On the other hand, we are the flock of sheep. What do you think is a good sheep? A good sheep is someone that follows the instructions of its shepherd. It is also someone who strictly follows its shepherd and not someone who keeps wondering around getting lost in the process. Moreover, good sheep are subservient to their shepherd and that they also call for their shepherd’s attention when there…
Dang it! Power outage in the middle of my quiz😑. Guess I'll have to continue it tomorrow when the power returns. Just glad we're using google forms so we can open it as much as we want to as long we don't click the submit button. I'll go to sleep earlier than usual tonight. Good night!
Lined up the puppies on the monoblock to take a good shot of them but then their mother came diverting the pups' attention to her. Bet they're hungry as they hurriedly crawled over to get their milk from their mom. They might fall from the chair so I stopped taking pictures and took them back to their house. Usually, we give Pogs' puppies to our neighbors or anyone who wants to raise a dog but this time, the fam decided to keep all three of them. We named them after Team 10…
I wonder if my account is still okay cause I've been inactive for more than a week now. Been busy studying for the finals this week supposedly but I suddenly had a stomachache and was vomitting and so we went to see the doctor. Turns out it was appendicitis so I had to undergo surgery Wednesday night. The doctors said my appendix was close to rupturing when they did the surgery. I was scared cause it's my first time being hospitalized and going through this kind of…
Finally! I'm going home after staying here for 5 days. I haven't had fevers since last night so I was discharged awhile ago. I said my goodbyes and thank yous to the doctors, nurses and everyone who took care of me for the past days. My wound still hurts a little when I walk and move but I'm sure it'll heal soon as I recover at home.
