What If I Can Play The ML Game?
Hi, happy Saturday to all of us. How's everyone doing? I'm doing fine here. Almost done with my household chores. By the way, I'm having my forced day-off today. Let me enjoy the moment with my family. So I'll be visiting my sister later on. βΊοΈ
Let me show to you my ever supportive sponsors. Here they are. I hope you'll visit them. βΊοΈ Thank you.
You might find my title in this article weird. π
It's because, it just touched my mind and, I just want to talk about it before this day pass. So here are my fingers typing fast. Tatatatatatatatata... Edit .... And hit the publish button and it's done.... Happy feelings running inside of me because I created another article for the day. Yey! What an accomplishment. Hehe. Just my simple happiness. π π
Observing ML Players
I've always watched how ML players were addicted with this game. Especially the teenagers. They would stay all day in the computer shop and play it with their friends and neighbors. I even heard them curse and say lots of silly things. Which I myself, can't bother to listen to it. And wished to stand from my chair and say, "Hey, could you lessen your voice and avoid saying those curse words? Please?" But of course, I can't say that. It will only be in my mind. Hehehe. You know, they'll fight back. π€£ They might kick me out. Lols.
Also my husband, he's addicted to it. Sometimes, I would ask him this stupid question. Haha. "What will you choose? Me or your ML game?" Then he would plead at me saying, "Can you just allow me to play it? Please? Just this time and later on I'll stop. Okay?" Hearing him say those words would make me laugh sometimes. If not, I will just disturb him until he stops. Silly me. Haha. I just don't want him to utter bad words too while playing.
And now that mobile phones are everywhere, or almost all of us, even young children have it, it's not impossible to see the young ones everywhere playing games. Like the ML game. Whenever I go out, I would see them outside in a group, playing this game. They're so addicted to it. Haha. Why?
I always asked myself, what make them addicted to it? I think it's not that enjoyable. Hmmm. They're wasting their time. Hmmm.
Curiousity
It's because I see lots of people playing the ML game that one time, I asked my hubby to teach me. It was really hard to learn. Haha. A kid who plays it might be laughing at me when he sees me learning it with a frowning face. So I did not continue.
But here's a BIG "BUT". I know in myself that once I learned how to play it, I might be immersed to it and play with it the whole day without even stopping. Hahaha. I know myself. Once I get addicted to something like games or dramas, I will not stop. I might spend my money to upgrade myself in that kind of game.
So, before that happens/ happened, I did not continue with it. And kept in mind that ML is not an interesting game. Apologies if I'm saying this. I don't want to get addicted to it. I'll be a zombie when that happens. Hehehe. I just gave out my reasons so, my interest will not continue. Especially when I'm curious as to why many people got addicted to this certain game. With these thoughts, I stopped myself. Yey!
Please don't get me wrong, hehe. ML players might bash me. Hehe. I don't have any bad thoughts to this. Just telling you my side why I did not learn it. Hehehe. I can foresee myself addicted to it.
Ending Thoughts
Let me ask you: Do you play the ML game? Or, are you an ML player? How do you feel about it? Hehe. How do you feel when you don't play it for a day?
Hehehe. Just my thoughts expressed in this article. Thanks for reading it.
Oh, also, apologies when sometimes, I can't share with you any of my tips. Sometimes, I withdraw all of it and put it in my coins.ph wallet. I'm running out of time actually. I wanted to have one BCH, before this year ends. Hehehe. Thanks for understanding. βΊοΈ No worries because I'll be silently reading your articles and liking it. Many times, I just don't leave any comment. π
But, I always enjoyed reading your articles, especially when you share your recipes in cooking foods. βΊοΈ Just consider me as your silent reader. π πΆ π€
Thank you everyone. God bless us all! π€π
Me and My Big Brother
I miss all of my siblings right now. No matter where they are, I hope that everyone's safe including our parents. I only have one hope. That is to have the reunion with them this coming December. But I guess, it will be impossible because of the situation we're in. Whew. It's been two years since the last time I saw the others in person. And it's been three years since the last time we all went home in the province and had the Thanksgiving Mass, requested by our loving dear parents, especially our mother. That was one of the happiest moment of my life. But my mom was the happiest among us all.
Now, I'm thinking about my big brother. He's one year and nine months older than me by the way. Hehe. And to those who don't know about my family yet, we are actually seven siblings, six girls and one boy. We are one big family, right? βΊοΈ My parents were blessed with so many children.
Let me reminisce the time I was with my brother. Let me call him Rog, short for his name. I won't consider him as one of my playmates before. Haha. He was closed friends with one of our male cousins. They loved to play guns and wanted to be in the military when they grow up, which really happened. I can't remember the time playing with him. Although, we were not that closed, we didn't fight. We only had our misunderstandings. One reason was because of me, the late riser.
Whenever Rog makes his eyes stare at me with a tiger look, I would get really scared at him. π€£ One time, I really wanted to go with them with his friends. We were both in elementary that time. He didn't want me to go with them since they were all male children. He said that I should go home instead but I did not listen. So he made a fierce look, as if he was going to eat me alive. Right at that moment, I gave up and went home. Hahaha. Even until, sometimes, if he's annoyed by me when I talk about nonsense stuffs, or ask him nonstop, he would make that look. Haha. That will be the sign that I should stop. Lols.
I'm a person who would talk about different kinds of things out of the blue. So I love to speak with my sisters. The third and the seventh. As well as my close friends. And now to my husband. Thanks to them, they lend their ears to me. That's a big help to my blabbermouth. π€£ An introvert with a loud mouth when with closed people.
So yeah, what else? Oh, I love it when I ask him about the history. That was once or twice. He answered me and made a detailed explanation. I loved that moment. That was rare. Haha. But if they talk with my cousin who is three months younger than me, they would seem to enjoy it. Wow. And I will just be quiet listening to them. π
So tragic of me, an OP (out of place).
There were times when I annoy him. Hihi. Or saying this to him. "Hey bro, why did you not top the bar exam?" I thought he would be annoyed, but he laughed and said, "Haha, Oh, it was really hard." In my thoughts, I felt so silly saying those words. So bad of me. Sorry. π. Mempz.
What I love about my brother was, he has a big dream. And we are included with his BIG DREAM. His ex-girlfriend even told that to me thru the messenger. She was her long time lover. I think, they started their love but not as girlfriend and boyfriend since Grade six. It was because of their classmates calling out their names. Maybe, that's when they developed feelings with each other.
I don't know what his BIG DREAMS were, but, wow, we're included. How sweet of my big brother. I think, that was his chemistry to me. Charot.
Can we develop a close bond in the future? Can we talk about our life stories openly? Hmmmm. I don't think that will be impossible. Maybe, I just need to talk in a matured way so he will listen also. Hehehe.
Hi big brother. Happy Birthday. Oh sorry, I greeted too early. I will celebrate my birthday first and after, it will be you again next year. π€π
Thanks for reading my thoughts in this article. I really appreciate it. I love you all. βΊοΈβΊοΈβΊοΈ God bless everyone!
A Late Bird Explained
Marvelous day/night to all of us here. I hope you're doing okay in your life just like me. Let's make our life meaningful and productive everyday, and giving love to everyone. (Am I really saying these words? π
)
This day feels so great to me. I woke up at 8:30 am by the way. I guess, this is already late for someone who is an early bird. But this is already early for me. Hehehe. Yeah, I'm serious.
Before we start, let me flex to you my ever supportive sponsors. Thank you so much.
I invite you to visit and read their interesting articles with their own life lessons. You won't regret it. βΊοΈ
Have you published your article for this day already? If yes, wow, congratulations. I think you feel great because you did something meaningful and important today as a part-time blogger or maybe, a mini-blogger like me. βΊοΈ
In this article, I'll share you another part of me. Each time I sleep late and wakes up late. I hope that this will help you in understanding people who are called the "late bird" or who wakes up late in the morning. I actually, envy people who are early risers. Love you all.
So here we go now. Let's begin. βΊοΈβΊοΈβΊοΈ
I Sleep Late and Wakes up Late
Maybe, some of you readers here are the same as me, who sleeps late and wakes up late.
Since the time I had my memory as a small kid, I've always been the late bird riser. Each morning, whenever I woke up, my dad needed to call and shout my name. Or, he would knock on the plywoods many times until it woke me up. He will not stop. And if I don't wake up, he would get angry and made scary tones. And so, I would hop out from my bed quickly and say, "Yes daddy, I'm awake now. I'm coming down."
I won't wake up from bed until my dad would scream out my name angrily. π
Apologies during those times daddy. Hehe. Until now, I'm still a late riser.
I don't know but this has been me since childhood. There were few times that I woke up early at 4:00am. It's because I'm bored of getting up late many times, or if I don't feel sleepy already. So, I would set my alarm to be early then go straight to the kitchen and have milk with biscuits or bread. Awesome and wonderful morning to have. What if, I was originally an early riser, right? My life right now could have been different. Not sure though. Hehe.
My dad, mom, as well as my first and third siblings, are naturally the early risers in the family. While the rest of us, me and my other siblings are not early risers. We only wake up early when we will do something important, or when we attend mandatory things and the likes.
My dad wondered many times and repeatedly gave us his advices. Just like this: "Don't you know that even if I sleep late at night, I still wake up early in the morning? Even if I don't have other things to do, I still wake up early. And I want you my children to do the same." I heard this from him several times and even until now, he would tell us that.
As for my mom, she doesn't talk often. It was the reverse type. My mom should have been the talkative one since she's a mom and a woman, but it was my dad instead. π
I'm just thankful that my parents are not both talkative. On the other hand, I benefitted from my dad's talkativeness. Whenever I ask him the things that he knew, he would patiently answer it. But if he didn't know, he just say, "Better ask your mom, she has more knowledge than me." And so, I would also go to my mother and help me with my homework.
Okay, we're getting far from the topic now. Sorry. π
Let me continue with it. So yeah, I was originally the type of a person who sleeps so late at night and wakes up late in the morning.
At night, I don't feel sleepy easily. So I do other stuffs. This was me even when I was a kid.
Still the same until now
Nothing has changed. Now that I'm working and earning on my own, I still have my old habits.
After my work, I would go straight to YouTube, or other websites where I can watch dramas or videos. If I liked the drama, I won't stop watching it and would proceed to another episode after the previous one. And without realizing, it's already the midnight or the dawn time. So, I would sleep and try to complete the seven-hour sleep or the eight-hour sleep. But it's really different. The feelings are way better when I start to sleep at night.
So few days ago, when I had my first dose of vaccination, I heard that I had an abnormal blood pressure which is 130/70. I developed a high blood pressure in me. Whilst, it was normally 90/70 before. Whew. My blood pressure changed so much. I'm worried. So if I'm really worried, I should change my ways. Yay. I always give promises to myself but don't do it.
My Reasons
Whenever I try to sleep early, my mind would imagine myself watching dramas. As if someone was whispering in my ears telling me to watch instead. And so, I would wake up and watch.
I only sleep early if I am sick or I feel tired. I don't take good care of myself. That's why, I realized, that I'm sickly these year. Aside from the radiation I get from my work after facing the computer all day, I also add more to it when I watch on my gadgets.
You won't believe me but I find happiness when I sleep late. Just like when I find happiness in eating my favorite foods. I often do these old habits especially when I'm alone. But when my partner is with me, I sleep early with him. Or else, I will hear something from him. π
Ending Words
I don't want to promise to myself that I will try to sleep early. But, I should really do it. These promises started many years ago. And until now, I'm still promising it. I'm so silly. π
I don't like to make promises anymore. Hehehe.
What about you, are you an early riser or a later riser? For me, I'm an owl. Who sleeps during daytime and with wide eyes open during nighttime.
How nice if I sleep early and wakes up early. And then I witness the sunrise. How nice to hear the music during the dawn time after waking up from a great sleep. How nice it would be. I agree to what my older sister told me, "It's really nice to imagine ourselves waking up early. And then have our coffee." Inhaling the early fresh breeze in the morning would also be healthy.
But I know, after all these words I wrote, I will always be the, 'old me' (the ultimate owl π¦ in our family).
Thanks for reading my articles. See you next time. God bless us all! βΊοΈ
Her Hopeless Love
Hi, hello, my dear friends. How are you now? I hope you're all having a wonderful day/night. Let our body, mind, and spirit be relaxed. Inhale...., exhale.... Wheeewww. Feeling fresh.
Showing to you my beloved sponsors:
Try visiting their page, you might find them interesting... βΊοΈ
So, so, so, it's again time to let my thoughts come into writing. Hoping that if you read it, you'll enjoy this.
By the way, this is me trying to write a #Fiction story. Yey. Finally, I had an idea about it. Let me see if it passes your judgements. π
And let's start it now.
Secret Feelings
The glimpses she has towards him and her eyes sparkled for she was in love. The man she's looking at was so sweet, handsome, and intelligent. She sighed and said, "I wish for this man to love me back". Few moments later, this aspiring lady turned red. Her crush looked back to her. She bended her head down and felt embarrassed. "I should have not stared at him for a long time", said she. Then little by little, she bended her head up, and was surprised to see the man she was in loved with, in front of her. The man asked, "Are you okay? You looked like someone with a fever?" Those concerned words he uttered, made the woman even blushed and made her felt that her heart would burst out. "N-n-no, yyyyou're mistaken. I'm okay. Y-y-you can go now. Thank you," she said with a shaky voice. He replied, "Okay, as long as you're okay. I'm going now, bye."
Although she was embarrassed, she did not regret staring at him. She thought, that made them even closer and also, the man approached her and asked if she was okay, was the most special moment for her. That made her jumped with joy. Her feelings continued until they went to the last grade in junior highschool.
She wanted the man but was not ready to have him as her lover. Nor the man she was in loved with.
Hopeless Romance
They graduated from Junior Highschool and after so many years, she got the courage to text the man.
"Hi, how are you? This used to be your classmate in highschool, Bella."
The man replied and said, "Oh hi Bella, long time no see. We've never seen each other for quite a long time. I'm doing fine. What about you?"
"I'm okay, and I feel good that you're doing fine just like me."
"Yes, I just finished my exam and I'm free now. Want to meet up with me?"
The girl got so excited and said "yes" immediately. Three days later, they met in town and ate in a restaurant. The girl can't contain the feelings she had with the man. In her mind, she thought, "Is there a chance now that we will become lovers? I hope so. Yay..."
While eating, the man was so gentle and helped the girl. They talked about stuffs like when they were still in their highschool days. They both enjoyed the memories they shared with each other.
Time to separate ways now and go home. They bid their sweet goodbyes.
They texted each other everyday. They became close friends eventually. They never skipped the day without texting each other.
Until one time, the girl doubted the man and collected the courage and said: "Hi Carl, ...." The man replied with "?". Then their conversations on the phone continued.
"I miss you Carl. Hahaha."
"Huh, I miss you too. Why are you laughing?"
"Just nothing Carl. I'm getting crazy if I don't say and ask these words to you."
"What do you mean?"
"I'm a woman but can you allow me to say this words to you first?.... Uhm, Carl, are we considered lovers?"
"Hmmm, I think yes."
"What do you mean with those words? Do you even love me?"
"Yes, I do. I love you."
"I love you too."
The conversations ended this was. The girl had mixed emotions whether she did the right thing or not. She even cried as if, the man made her expect that she was loved by him.
Few months past and they never saw each other again. Just the rare communications thru their text messages that made her hope for their love to continue. Until eventually, she gave up. She thought, "I don't want to force this man to love me back. I think, I'm the only one who loved him. I give up!" So she never texted the man.
And then she got a new boyfriend after many months. She even made it known in social media like uploading their photos together. Then one day, Carl messaged her.
"Is he the one?" With a slight sweetness felt by this girl, she replied, "Yes, he is now my boyfriend." The man said, "Why?" "Because I love him," said the girl. The conversations ended there.
After many months, Bella and her boyfriend broke up. She was really heartbroken. There was no closure. Her friends even noticed that she had blank facial expressions and would stare at something. She doesn't talk often. Her concern friend asked, "Hey, Bella, what's going on. You're blank stare makes me worried about you. Are you okay?" Then she apologized and said, "Oh, I'm so sorry for making you worried. I'm okay. I just thinking of this homework we have."
She can't really understand the feelings inside her. So she just focused on her studies. She's almost finished in her studies, when she got in loved with a man again. To cut the story short, they never became real lovers, and that, the woman was just again injured in her heart. The man's name was Lee. He tested her with this question:
"Hi, I have something to say to you."
Bella answered, "Really, what was that? I also have questions to you. Go ahead and tell me."
"Okay. This is what I wanted to say to you before."
"Oh wow, really, what is it? Tell me."
"I just want to say that, 'I love you'. Do you love me too?"
"I'm so happy. Are you serious? I actually love you too. I love you Lee."
"But there is something I wanted to tell you again, honestly."
"What is it Lee? Tell me more."
"I just want to say that I'm joking. I just tested you. Hahaha. I think, you're not used to this kinds of things. I'm joking only. Haha."
It felt like the girl's world fell down really fast. What did the man say again? He was just joking? After all those serious conversations they had? The girl asked herself: "Is there anyone there who really love me and willing to enter into a relationship with me? I guess, I'm not the lucky type. I accept that fate on myself. All the men I loved, starting from Carl, they just played with my feelings. Why did I let them play with my feelings? Why? Why? Why!!!!!???? You're so stupid Bella!!! You're the easy type! You're nothing but an easy type. Stop with your romantic dream now and never expect for a miracle to happen. Never!!!"
After all the expectations the girl had, and the thought, of letting the man love her seriously, but it was the opposite instead. She regretted everything. From the very start. She wanted to start for something new. She was always inside her room. She lives in a boarding house alone, so no one was there to attend to her. Her world fell apart. As if there was no hope.
One day, the landlady knocked on her door. "Knock, knock, knock. Bella, are you there? The water bill just came and I want to give it to you." But there was no response. So, she just placed it under the door of Bella. Many days passed, the landlady noticed that there was an awful smell coming from Bella's room. She was curious and she went closer. The smell was really bad so she called others to open the door forcefully for her.
And there they witnessed the hopeless girl. Her blood on the floor turned black. Flies were all over her room. And on the floor was the poor girl. She killed her self using a knife. And on the wall, this was written,"I hope that the next time I live, there will be a real man that will love me back. I QUIT!!! I'm so sorry." π₯πππ
This is where the girl's life ended.
Ending Words
This is where my fiction ends. I hope you liked it. I mean, I hope you reached it to the end.
I made it this way because, this is what I noticed nowadays. But, I hope that, the young generations will not easily give up in their lives but face it as a challenge to grow more and mature more. And for those men out there including women, please be serious when you love. Or maybe, don't make someone hope for you. Make it clear that you're just friends and you don't plan to have her or him as your lover. Unless, that person forces you to. That's a different case then.
So yeah, love is not a game!
Thanks for reading my fiction story. Thank you. God bless us all! βΊοΈ
My Self Preparation
Good day my dear friends. What's up? Is everything okay with you? For me, I'm feeling good.
I just want to say thank you to my sponsors and everyone who support me in this platform. I keep on writing because of you guys. Thanks a hundredfold. βΊοΈ
Last night, I decided to write on my lists about the contents I will be writing and will be publishing here in the future. So that when I have time and in the mood to write, then I'll just have to type the ideas coming out of my mind. With that, I will have extra articles to post when I really don't have the time. Hehe. Do you also do this? Saving some spare articles that will be published anytime you want? I think, yes. Hehe.
Let me also write something about the self preparation I'm having these days. From blogging to transferring in the province soon.
Preparing Myself
Most of us would set our goals for the coming days, weeks, months or maybe years. We have that nature to foresee the future we will be living in.
As for me, I have the concerns about my blogging. Few months ago, when I focused myself in noisecash, everything was well. Not until I went home to the province and wasn't able to do the daily mini-blogging. It was affected due to the weak internet connection there and sometimes, I would be disconnected. No choice but to let the day pass without posting something meaningful. Plus, I'm more busier in the province. No time to face my phone. These are some of the many factors I have experienced.
So now that I've decided to go home, I should prepare myself. Like I said, I already listed some contents on my notes. I'll be writing them directly here, saving it as my article without publishing them yet. So when the necessity comes, then there's always a spare article to publish every day. As promised, I wanted to publish one article everyday in this site. And I should interact more. But please, forgive me when I can't interact with you once I'm in our hometown. Hehe.
I don't want to leave the world of blogging. While the site is here with us, I will continue to become a part of it. And to be your virtual friend too.
Right now, I still don't have spare articles, but I'm planning to start drafting them as many as I can. Whew. Ready, set, go!
Where do you get your inspirations in writing? For me, it's from my daily activities, nephews and nieces, family, relatives, hubby, my past, and random thoughts. Or, when I read someone's article and I can get and idea out of it. Later on, I will also join some writing contests. Let my inspirations grow more, so I could write more.
I never imagined that I came this far. I made simple articles, about forty and more. It was impossible at first, but, I pushed myself and now, I'm so happy that I have written my memories. Yey. And I'll soon print them out. Make a mini-book out of it. I'll keep it in my room and read it everytime I want. Isn't that interesting to do?
Unfortunately, for my youngest sister, who used to be so active in posting here than noisecash, she stopped blogging a long time ago. I asked her thru texts and she said that she forgot her seedphrase. She didn't create another one anymore. I got sad for that. If she can only get back to her blogging days. I also love reading her articles by the way.
For my eldest sister, she's interested too. But she's hesitant because she doesn't have plenty of ideas. I hope that my sister will try as well. Also, no internet connection. Mempz.
Ending Words
This is where it ends now.
Do you also write daily articles and publish it here? How do you manage it? Or, do you keep on drafting here and just readily publish it? That's very nice then. The same as my plans.
Thanks for reading my article and I hope you enjoyed it. God bless us all! βΊοΈ
My 50/50 Plans (Half decided and half undecided π
)
Hi, hello, my dear friends. How's your day goin today? It's all fine for me. Hehe. I ate mangoes today. I'm feeling like, I'm about to catch a cold. Mempz. Please don't. Huhu. No sickness please. Whew. I rushed and took my vitamin too. π
I'm really scared of thy sickness. Hehe.
So before we start, here are my beloved sponsors. You will see how awesome they are when your read their articles word by word. Here they are:
Please don't forget to visit their pages. βΊοΈ
Hmmm, in today's article, what am I going to write? Hmmm? Before that, can you request any content as many as you can? I'll be jotting them down on my notebook and make articles in advance. I might not have the time to publish daily articles once I go to our province. The internet connection there is really weak. It would make one go bored. So while I'm still here, I want your help to the contents I will be doing. Hehe. Thanks in advance. βΊοΈ
So here we go, as you can see in my title, it says: My 50/50 Plans (Half decided and half undecided π
) ... I wrote it this way because, I'll be telling you my plans while I'm still here in the city. My days/weeks are now counted.
Decided and Undecided Plans
What does this mean? π
50/50... I have this plan that I wanted to do with my niece and nephews. Only with my one niece and two nephews. They're grown ups so it's okay if I will join them in my journey when I go to the town. I mean, one nephew is ten years old, my niece is twelve and the eldest nephew is fourteen. While the other three are: my youngest niece is almost three years old, youngest nephew is five, and the other nephew is only eight. (Without checking my birthday lists, I hope the ages I told you are correct.) It will be hard to take them all as I am alone with them. π Two weeks ago, I told it to my sister. I asked if she would allow her son to go out with me together with his cousins, good thing, she said yes. I'm just waiting approval from my other sister. I hope she will say yes.
I just want something new that's why, instead of buying groceries, and cooking all of it in the house, I would rather call them out. Hehe. Covid is still there but now, it's getting better. We will have to be extra extra careful always.
I want them to go shopping with me, go to the malls, and eat out. That will serve as one of my long time memories with them. βΊοΈ
Now, here's the problem though. Haha. I think I've got this nice idea, BUT, due to the fact that my job is not doing well, the same goes to my salary, then, I have my withdrawal thoughts. π
I didn't tell this plan to them yet because I don't want them to feel excited for nothing. I just hope that this first week or second week of December, we will be able to have enough funds from my pocket and execute my plans. Hehe.
I will be missing them once I go home to the province. So as my simple goodbye, let this plan happen for real soon. βΊοΈ
For my three years of stay with them or near them, except when I was still in college, I never went out with them alone. So I wish for the dream to happen. How nice it would be, right? Hehe. Maybe you will say 'yes', while others will say 'maybe' or 'no'. Hehehe.
My Bonds with THEM
No foods were always involved, but I always play with them. I loved to tease them, especially my youngest niece. Haha.
Sometimes also, I would get angry with them when they don't listen to me. π
I like it because they listen. If not, I'll be a 'super sayan' to them. You remember the dragon ball z anime? Hehe.
It's really great to have kids around you. Sometimes, I also think like them. Haha. They would sometimes say, "Hey aunt, you're like a kid." And then they laugh or smile. Lols. Which I myself agree. Hihihi.
Ending Thoughts
Do you have the same thoughts as me? Have you mingled out with your nieces and nephews? How was your bonding with them?
Let my plans happen. Thanks for reading my article. See you next time. God bless us all! βΊοΈ
Attachments
Hi, hello, good evening/morning wonderful readers and writers. How are you today? I hope all of us had a great day. Today is Sunday and we went to the church. I feel like I'm fed spiritually again. And yeah, me, my sister and her little daughter went there together.
Good thing, it was sunny today. And right this time, it's already foggy and cold outside. I'm wearing my sweater and pants. Whew. Later on, I'll have my socks and hats as well. Whew.
So thankful that I was able to do my laundry today. Yey.
This article will be about my attachments. I tried to think of my attachments. I asked myself and the number one answer was, my hair. Stay tuned and read my article until the very end. Hehe. I hope you will enjoy it. βΊοΈ
My Hair
It was always me who has the longest hair to us siblings. I don't know the exact year when I started growing my hair longer until my waist. I guess, it was during my first Grade?
I love my hair so I don't want to let someone nor a barber cut it short. The feelings of despair, sadness, and I would even cry when they cut my hair short. Unlike me, my sisters don't usually make their hair longer.
I'm always attached to my hair. Little trims would make me feel so sad. Sometimes, I cry also. π
Are you like this too? Lols. Silly, right? It's because, like I said, I'm attached to it.
But then, today, I allowed my hair to be trimmed again. I don't have the plans to but, look at this:
I first noticed this when I was in highschool. We were sitting on the stage when one of my male classmates accidentally pulled my hair and he had so many of my hair left on his hand. He got surprised. I can't remember the words he uttered.
Maybe it already started when I was in grade school. Everytime I comb my hair, this always happen. So, I don't like combing my hair everyday. It worries me so much. I'm not yet old nor I have kids but, this is too much of a hair loss. Either dry or wet, this is always the case. I have tried different kinds of shampoos but they didn't work. I guess, I'll just have to accept it. Hehe. No choice.
My sisters too, they have hair loss. So maybe, this is like a genetic problem. Mempz. Sometimes, I'm jealous to those people who have thick hair. And they even put some color in it. I also like it but, the result might not be good. So, it's okay. I just hope that someday, my hair will become healthy. Any recommendations for me?
One time, I asked my mom.
Me: "Mom, why do we have hair losses everyday? Is this some kind of genetic problem?"
My mom: "Maybe not, my daughter. You know what, when we were still kids, shampoos were rare at that time. We used clay or ashes and water to wash our hair. I never had my hair loss. But then, when I started using shampoos in highschool, that was when it started. And continued until now."
Me: "Oh, I see. So that's it. Should I also use clay and ashes for my hair? π
I might stop it."
Then we laughed together.
(Hehehe, these were the conversations we had."
My hair is black and straight. It used to be so black and looked shiny. Chos.
Today, my hair was trimmed. About three to four inches.
The trimming took us seven minutes. Yey, it was fast. The last time took us thirty minutes. Hehehe. Quite long.
Trimming my hair would lessen the hair fall (maybe π
). Everyday, my floor would be full of many hair strands, also my sisters. Seeing this everyday, gives me the feeling of letting my hair go. I mean, to be trimmed at least. I didn't have the courage to make it short today until it reaches my shoulder. π There will be heartaches inside of of me. I will be heartbroken. Hihi.
Other Attachments
It's a given that I'm attached to my family. My dad, mom, siblings, husband and relatives including my good friends.
What are your attachments? Or to whom are/ were you attached with?
It's good to have feelings like this but not too much. Just the exact one.
I'm also attached to my clothes. That until now, after so many years, I still wear them. Haha. The oldest one was white. I had this shirt since 2008, it came from the church where my mom bought it. And how old is it now to me? Uhmmm, about 13 years old. π
I still can't let go of this. It looks too old, the prints were almost faded, but my love to it is not yet faded.
There are also other things that I'm attached with also. Hmmm. What are they again? Oh, apologies, I forgot. Hehehe.
Ending Words
Another article published today. Yey. This is always like an achievement to me, everytime I publish one article per day. It's good to have unlimited ideas, right? So we can write more.
I hope that my body will provide nutrients to my hair as well. So that, they will grow healthy.
So that's it, thanks for reading my article. See you again. Please like and comment down below if you want. Thank you. God bless us all! βΊοΈ
My Sixtuplets
Good morning/afternoon/evening/night my dear friends. How are you all? I hope that we are all having a wonderful life. Let's live life to the fullest, like they say.
Let me flex to you my wonderful sponsors. Try visiting their articles and read them. You might find it interesting. Here they are:
What a day to start my morning. My left arm is feeling okay now. It doesn't feel heavy at all and the slight pain from the injection is going away. Yey!
I planned to have my laundry, do household chores, and after, go to the town and buy groceries. I hope to accomplish all those things. And when I have time, I will download and save all my published articles so I can compile, edit and print them. Whew. So many goals to do for today. Hehehe. The problem is, there's no water. Huhu. So I have to ask my other sister if they have enough water so I could do my laundry. If not, then I'll have to postpone it. Mempz. It's hard, if there is no water, right? Hmmmm.
Okay, so in this article, let me talk to you about my Sixtuplets. Yey!!!
Having Kids
It was my childhood dream to grow up, marry a man and have kids. To start a new family together. But since the works we have with my husband don't allow us to do so and that, we're always LDR, so we stayed patient and prayed for it. And last night, it really happened. Not just one, not just two, three or four little babies, but six babies inside my tummy. Wow, how can I have all of them in my stomach altogether. I can do this. Women who become pregnant, miraculously, would have super duper superpowers that men don't have. Women have magics in themselves. They can do impossible things just for their family especially to their child/children.
So yeah, when I knew that I will be having Sixtuplets, I jumped with joy. Wow, how in the world did that happen. We don't have any history for having twins or triplets in our family, and now, I have Sixtuplets? Am I dreaming right now? Oh, I'm not. Maybe, this will mark the beginning that our families, will really have the chance to be pregnant with two or more babies. Does your family have this too?
I remembered those Korean shows I was watching. One is a reality show entitled, "The Return of Superman". Are you familiar with this Korean Reality Show? I guess some of you do. It was my cousin who introduced this to me many years ago. I started watching it and I liked it. It was because of those triplets, these are their names: "Daehan, Minguk, Manse". Also, their father was a famous celebrity. I love his drama entitled "Jumong". It used to be a famous Korean drama also back then, and maybe until now. Try watching what I've mentioned, you might like them.
That time when I watched that Korean show, those triplets were still little toddlers. Especially when they eat, they would stuff their mouths with foods and eat them. So funny to see them. π
Plus, there were twins as well. I love watching them. So cute. Hehehe.
For me, I got puzzled, how can they take care of those babies? Wow, they're so great.
And now, I will be having Sixtuplets. I can't also imagine how. I'm worried at the same time. Will they be okay inside my tummy? Will they develop all their body parts and will be born as normal babies? Will they need to be placed inside the incubators? That would be really expensive. But, we will do our best so they will have normal lives. It will be hard, but we can do this!
My Thoughts
Why in the world did I dream of that last night? I couldn't sleep because I was always thinking about it? Me and my husband were married for more than two years now. And we hope that one day, we will also be blessed. In my dreams, we were blessed with six babies. Wow. That will be the best gift in my life when that happens. We will live in the province and start a new and simple life. Enough kind lifestyles to sustain us.
How many kids do you have now? Do you also have multiple babies in one pregnancy? Awesome, you're a tough mom. Congratulations!!! βΊοΈ
I know, it's not only me who has this dream, many women out there wish to have a baby as well. If not, maybe a miracle baby. May God bless us all.
Ending Words
Just sharing to you my dreams last night. Please don't be upset if I made you believe in it. Hehehe. I was just fantasizing that dream so I put it into writing. How nice, if I become a mother one day. By just looking at my nieces and nephews, wow, I would be so blessed if I will have my own too. Maybe other women don't have dreams of having their own kids, it's everyone's choice. And my choice is to have my own kid/s. They say, it will be hard. My answer is of course. Life is not only a honeymoon but full of challenges too. We are made humans and we can survive and solve our problems one at a time. We can do it!
So that's it for today's article. I hope you like it. Let's have a blessed day/night. God bless us all! βΊοΈ
Vaccine Shots
Hello beautiful and handsome readers/writers, how's your day/night goin? It's my free day today so I did not open any slots for my lessons to be booked by my students. Because I thought, as announced, there will be power interruption in our area, but it didn't push through. So, yeah, what I did today, I was able to mingle with one of my sisters and her kids, just that my other sister was busy. Supposedly, she will come here as well, but, she needed to attend other things. Maybe next time again. Hehe.
Wow, it's a fine day again today and it's not cold. My body loves the warm weather actually. I can't get used to cold weather. At night time, when it's too cold, I would wear thick clothes like jackets, pants, socks, hats and others. As if I'm in a winter season. Chos.
Let me try writing to you about my vaccine shot experiences in this article.
My Yesterday's Affair
Yesterday, I wrote to you about my day of having my covid vaccine shots. So happy that finally, after so many months, I get to have my first shot.
I was happy that the second site I went to, was organized. We can sit while waiting for our time, and we maintained the one meter distance. Yey.
Here's the blurred photo of my left arm where the shot was done. Lols.
My Own Photo of my left arm.
It says here that, "I AM VACCINATED". I'm just happy. Hehe. And when I take my second dose this coming November 25, then maybe, it will say, "I AM FULLY VACCINATED". I'm also excited to get my vaccine card as a fully vaccinated one. Hihi. The vaccine name for me was, 'Pfizer'. What about you, what's the name of the vaccine they injected in you? We have other available vaccines in that site like Astra Zeneca, Sinovac, and others. But I chose Pfizer. Hehe.
When the medical practitioner injected the vaccine, I felt a little bit of pain. Haha. It was a successful injection. Whew. But, whenever I go to the dentist and get my shots done in my gums inside my mouth, the pain was better. π
After having the shot, I felt the hotness in my body. It was like the vaccine rushed inside my body. Wow, the effect was immediately there. Later on, I went to the monitoring area and let nurses check if I was still okay. Just that, I was shocked to know that my blood pressure was 130/70. The nurse said that it was not normal. So she suggested that I should let my blood pressure be monitored daily. Thanks for that nurse, she was patient in telling me the details of what to do after getting my vaccine. Hehe. May God bless her more.
And then, I went outside and bought some things and fruits like oranges and apples. The oranges served as my vitamins for the whole day yesterday.
I didn't feel any flu, colds, or any sickness yesterday until this morning, I don't know later, just that, my left arm felt heavy, and a little painful. But that's normal I think. Hehe.
Did you have your covid vaccine already? If yes, congratulations! If not, it's always your choice. βΊοΈ The important thing is we're all healthy. Let's stay well my fellow human beings. Hehe.
My Vaccine Experiences Before
Growing up, I also had other vaccine shots. Like when I was in grade school. I remembered, when we were in Grade 5, we had nurses and doctors who came to our school and vaccinated us. Maybe, the purpose was for Rubela, anti-sickness and so on. I can no longer remember.
After all of us in our class got our shots, my classmates played. They massaged other's arms forcefully, or played. So some cried because it was painful already. I'm glad that no one played sneakily with my arm because I stayed silent. Or else, I could also have experienced too much pain.
The nurse as well yesterday, told me not to massage my arm. Which I followed. I'm actually attempted to massage it. I hope that tomorrow, the slight pain in my left arm will be gone.
Right now, I can feel that I'm having colds. So I quickly took my vitamins, I ate apples as well. I don't want to get sick again. It will be hard. But if it's the effect of the covid vaccine, then I'll have to endure with it. They said, the effect will be experienced for three days.
Ending Words
So these were my vaccine experiences. What about you? What was/were the side effect/s?
I just don't like to see babies getting their shots in their body. Huhu. I could feel their pain. But since it's needed for their body's immune system, so be it. Whew.
Thanks for reading my article, I hope you enjoyed it. Comment down below about your vaccine shots. Thank you. God bless us all! βΊοΈ

Waiting Time Experiences
Here I go again, after being inactive for so many hours, allow me to write something today. But yeah, let me greet you all my fabulous readers and writers. I hope we are all having a wonderful day/night today.
The weather this morning is so great. I woke up early today at 6:00am. This day was again the first time I became an early bird. Hehe. I have reasons that's why. Today marks the day I will have my first dose of covid vaccination. I was really hesitant at first, but now, I finally decided to have it. I even asked my friend many times. Haha. He answered my queries patiently. And so, here I am now, I belong to the queue here at SLU school. It's a very long line, and I hope, before 12 noon, I will be able to have my vaccination. Or else, I will have to tag myself as absent in my first class. There will be another penalty added and absent record. Huhu. As much as I'd want to preserve my good records, but these kinds of situations prevents me from doing so. I just hope and pray that the student will cancel his class. My next will be at 5:30pm. Hehe. Please...
I should have had my first dose last month, right? Hehe. Another regret for me today.
Today's article, let me write my experiences about the waiting games I had. You will know when you read my article continuesly. Thank you. π
The Waiting Game
The waiting time game is what I'm playing now. Lols. I arrived here at the vaccination area at exactly 8:00am. I rode the jeepney and walked here alone. And now, wow, the line is very long. π± Maybe a hundred meters or more. We no longer practice the one-meter distance since the spaces don't allow us. We have one foot distance only. Maybe, as long as we wear our facemasks and face shields properly so it will help us not spread the virus, in case someone have it right now. No one knows.
Here's the line in one floor:
My Own Photo
We came outside the school first, we waited for twenty minutes before entering the area. When we entered the gate, I was shocked to see that there were many people standing on their lines. Huhu. I was even surprised to take the stairways up to the fifth floor. Quite long, right? I should have come here early, maybe earlier than seven. Huhu. Many people wee still coming in so I guess, they will soon close the gate and won't accept anyone for today.
I did not expect this to happen. π
So I assured myself to arrive here at exactly 8:00am, since my friend said that, it's different from before wherein, people would start lining up as early as 1:00 am at dawn. I guess, the city where I live is really over-populated with people. This is one reason why I should go and live in the province, just that, there's no strong internet connection there.
On the other hand, the good benefit of me lining here for hours is that, I can write and publish my article this morning. Yey! We may experience hard things in life but still, let's benefit from it, just like this. Hehe. Chos. I'm a little preachy, huh! π€
We already survived and came down to the second floor. By the time I publish this article, maybe I'm already done with my vaccination. Hehe.
Unexpected Happening
I don't want to blame anyone but only myself. I just inserted this unexpected thing that is happening with me right now. Hahaha.
When I first lined myself, I asked the guard where to line up for people who will have their first dose of covid vaccination, he showed it to me and followed it. Little did I knew, that, it was only for minors. From 12 to 17 years old only. Wow, I spent almost two hours there. Haha.
Then I rushed here in UB, another college university. Luckily, the line was fewer and much better and it was really for adults. We sat while we waited. Here's my own photo of it.
I heard this man I'm following, while he was talking to someone on the phone, it was loud not to hear it, hehe, he said that he came from SLU too. So it was not me who made a mistake, I guess, there are more adult people who lined up there too.
I guess, the problem was the miscommunication. So lesson learned for me this morning, I should ask the details first. So to avoid this kinds of experiences. Lols.
I want to laugh actually. π
πππ Maybe, if I came here earlier at 8:00am, I finished having my first dose and went home already. But due to my carelessness, I suffered it. Haha. Anyway, I don't want this to happen. This is not the first time. Hihihi.
Other Waiting Games
Other waiting games I had were of course, those times when I waited for my friends for about thirty minutes. Haha. Those were the times when my friends were not friendly with their times, or not time conscious. Me too, I admit. Hihi. So we just waited patiently with each other.
It's not a problem to wait as long as, the person or people we're waiting will arrive. Hehe. What does this mean? Hmmm. It's up to you to interpret. Hihi.
I will never forget the time I needed to wait for two hours just for the jeep to arrive. That was when I was still in college. Wow, I was tired from school and was exhausted from all the paper works, assignments/homework, and, before arriving home, I needed to wait for thirty minutes to more than two hours. Whew. From 7:30pm to 10:30 pm, or sometimes, 11pm.
If only, that time, I knew or found out about the short cut roads, then, I should have walked. It will only take thirty minutes to walk from the town to where I used to live. Then, I shouldn't have waited for many minutes or hours. Whew. Just that, sometimes, I have many things I'm holding so it won't be possible. As for the taxi, I don't have my daily expenses for that since I'm just relying to my monthly allowance from my parents. When I have extra, I ride a taxi sometimes. I also had my budgetting techniques that time to make my allowance enough for myself. Hehe.
Ending Words
I have so many experiences for these waiting games. And I'm sure, I'm not the only one who experienced it. π
I believe, you too. Admit it. Hehehe.
Whenever I think of these memories, I say to myself, "You've had enough Shiela. You were able to do those things. It's time for new challenges." And yeah, I do experience new and hard challenges too. Like the problems in life as an adult. Like financial needs.
What about you, how were you able to deal with these waiting games? Did you survive? Comment down below if you like. βΊοΈ
Thanks for reading my article. So thankful for reading my article again. God bless us all! π
My Perks in my Work
Hello hello hello, marvelous readers and writers. I hope, you are all having a wonderful day today. Let sunshine be upon us all. The weather seems to be fine today and I will be doing something new later. I hope I can really get my baranggay clearance so I can proceed for my vaccination. I should have known it and should have done it a long time ago. π
Of course, I will never forget to show you these supportive sponsors I have. Yey. Here they are:
I'm in a good mood today to write about my work experiences. Although it's not something good, since I will be writing about the downfalls of an online teacher. Chos. But I'll include the positive things it has brought me since we're trying to be optimistic and not pessimistic. βΊοΈ
Let's start ....
My Online Work - Negative Experiences
By now, some of you my friends know my work. I teach kids and adults online. There are many fun times with them, at the same time, stressful moments with them. Especially when I encountered students who are rude, parrot students, not listening to me, aggressive to finish the lesson, and many more to describe them. Haha. Let me use the term, professional, wow. π€ I don't want them to give me the bad vibes so I shower them with my killer smiles all throughout the lesson. I don't care if they're bothered or not. What's important is I stay calm, and teach them patiently. Or else, they will give me bad feedbacks or worse, complains.
One time, when I was still new, I got to teach this teenage girl. She didn't answer my questions, she did other stuffs, and so I lost my patience. Then I made a little bit of an angry tone, I told her to rush since it's almost time, and after that, tadaaaan, I got a bad feedback. Haha. Sorry girl, you should have done your part as my student that time. I hope you'll come back and I'll show you how patient I am. Chos.
There are also students who give bad feedbacks without any reasons. π
Just their moods. I hate you guys. Haha.
What I hate the most is to receive complains. I got complains thrice for my three years of teaching. Two of it was removed when I filed an appeal, and the other one was not because it was true. I had a weak internet connection that time. That student even showed me countless middle finger. He was really the type complain and give endless bad feedbacks. On the good side, he gave me positive feedbacks too. He was was too sensitive. π
Yay, if only, showing fingers don't give any meanings, then I will be at peace. But since, I was patient, so I didn't care. Lols.
I also had this student, who booked many lessons with me and yet, she gave me bad feedbacks. Until such time that I got stressed and tagged myself as absent. Haha. That was August, she never had class with me again. But later on, she will be one of my students again. She's back! Grrrrrr. I hate looking at her squared ugly face! Huh! What am I saying. Sorry.
I also had cute little kids. They were my young students who gave me mini-heart attacks. Ooopsss, just my exagerration. They would show their toys and talk about it and then, they don't want to focus on their lessons. Haha. For many times, I just pinched my toys in secret to release the stress. π I just think that they're still kids so they don't have long attention spans.
Oh, I started with negativity here. So these are some of my experiences and I believe, the experiences of my colleagues too. Let it be a lifelong learning experience to me that will mold myself as a teacher. Thank you for these experiences.
My Online Work - Positive Experiences
Without this online work, I never get to meet my awesome students. One example was Raymond. He stayed loyal to me since 2018 until now. I'm actually guilty. Whenever I experience weak internet connection or some issues, I just silently pray that he will look for other teachers because I'm having issues and is affecting our online class. But then, he stayed. Wow, thank you so much Raymond for being there. And to his dad also.
My stress from other students would easily be freed when I have students who are so lovable. They would say, "I love you teacher. You're the best." Ooohhh, wow, I like that. And sometimes, even if it's not true, they say, "You're so beautiful." Hihi, wow, I'm always flattered. Another was "I like you teacher." These kinds of students who have positive outlooks in life, lessened my stress. Thank you. I love you too. β€οΈπ€
Some of them loved to play with me. They teach me and then, we play and enjoy it. I also had students who had a comic personality. For example, the way I talk or laugh, they imitate it. Lols. Naughty kids.
Haha, some would even cry and I find that funny. Like when they lost the game or when I tease them ( when my silly self attacks me). Immediately, I apologize and would stop them from crying. They're so cute. π
Or, their are baby students who cry before the start of the lesson. It's when their parents or siblings call them to have class and they're immersed to doing other things. I find it cute too. π
Oh, my apologies, sometimes, I became a silly teacher who teases students sometimes. Hihi.
I had adult students too. I enjoyed talking to them. We shared our stories and experiences together.
The youngest student I had was three and the oldest was in his early 60's.
For my toddler students, since they have short attention spans, their mothers would sometimes hold their hands and let them stay in front of the computer/laptop/ipad/mobile phone. Just imagine that. Hehehe.
I can't remember the rest but, I had many fun and enjoyable experiences with my online students.
My Online Work Issues
It's not only me who experienced these issues, my colleagues as well.
The downfalls of teaching online were when I have low internet connection, my equipment are not working properly, the loud noises, no electricity, the weather, system errors, and so on. So many to mention.
I stayed at the center of our company from October 2018 to the second week of December 2018. I started teaching at home on the third week of December 2018. It was a success. But came January 2019, when I still don't have my back-ups, I experienced issues on my laptop so I got absent and was penalized. I was a naive person during that time. Haha.
During my first year of teaching, I experienced so many negativities that taught me to become smart. Oh, wow, smart. Hihi. I mean, I learned how to deal with it. I bought power-back ups like my generator, UPS, and asked for my sister's laptop everytime my laptop failed like having it's major updates.
These were some of the issues. Until now, I'm still here, but soon, I will say goodbye to our beloved company. I love this work, but necessities in life prevents me from continuing this job. π₯
Not an Active One
Oh, let me also include, I never get to experience becoming a mentor or a captain for new teachers in our company. π
My shyness stopped my willingness to do so. Mempz. They gave me several invites thru texts and emails, but I refused, and now I'm regretting it for not trying. Hihi.
Ending Words
From now on, I will cherish the time I spend here. Because sooner, I will say and sing my "GOODBYE". I'm so thankful to this online company. Hehe, I don't have to mention the name by the way. Apologies for that. My days/weeks are counted from now on. I will always miss this first ever job I had, as well as my students.
That's it for today's article. Endless thanks and appreciations to you readers who visit and read my articles including my short posts. βΊοΈ
God bless us all! βΊοΈ
Resignation
Great great great day/night to all of us, my dear wonderful readers and writers. How are you doing now? I've been inactive for many hours already and I missed you guys very much. Yes. So let me write something about myself again this time.
But before that, try visiting my sponsors, you'll surely love their posts. Thank you. π Special thanks to them. As well as to @QueencessBCH for becoming my new sponsor and to @Lovelyfaith . And yes, I will not forget to mention you all as well: @WickedSoul (what's your username sis here? π
) , @FarmGirl, @Sweetiepie , @BCH_LOVER , and @Jeansapphire39 . I love you all!!! π
As you can see in my title, I wrote a word, which is 'Resignation'. I have many reasons to say in this article so I want you to continue reading it. And understand my situation. If you feel like giving me advices, then feel free to comment down below. I love to interact with you guys. π Thanks in advance.
First Job
I started late in college. I reached twenty, before I became a freshman. It's because, I have more than three years of stay in the convent. I graduated in highschool at the age of 16. From 16 to 19, I spent my years in the convent like I said earlier.
After I graduated in college last 2018, I finished my review then applied in an online teaching company, or ESL. I applied first in an office-based but was rejected. And on the same day, I went to their center and applied there too. Luckily, I got accepted, after so many trainings, I got launched at last and started my online teaching last October 18, 2018. I will never forget my first day at work. Hehe. I was so nervous but stayed calm in front of my virtual class. Whew.
Actually, this was my first job until now. I never applied to other companies or schools. I attempted but was not accepted from a specific private school. Also, I never studied again, like getting masterals in a graduate school... I planned but never had the bravery to do so.
I love my current job and I don't want to resign. It's such a pain. Huhuhu. While the company is active, then I should give my time. But, many reasons keep piling up that are pushing me to resign.
My Reasons
Let me tell you the reasons why I will eventually resign this December 2021 or maybe this coming January 2022.
I noticed that, my body has gotten weaker. I would get sick immediately. Before, without taking any supplements, I always feel healthy. But due to the radiations I receive from the gadgets like my laptop and mobile phone everyday, so maybe, that's why, it caused me to have a weak immune system. I never imagined resigning from this job.
There are so many complications my body is experiencing. Is it really the correct term? Anyway, the back of my leg where we bend when walk, had veins experiencing pain that prevents me from walking properly. Then later on, my right leg as well. It's because, I became lazy to exercise. I sit all day until night time in front of the computer doing my work and never exercised. Only when I go out that I walk, run, and produce sweat. I should have done some simple exercises. Regrets keep coming.
Me and my husband don't have a house nor land here in the city. It's hard to buy nowadays. And I observed that my hubby prefers to live in our province, so I will also stay there. Plus, there's no strong internet connection there. I just hope that sooner or later, we will have strong internet there so I can re-apply as an online teacher and make it as my part-time.
Away from my hubby. I don't want to be away from my hubby for a long time. He can come and stay with me but, their labor work is in the province. No choice.
I want to build a family. Having kids together with my husband. We're married for two years now, and yet, we still don't have kids. Pressures from our parents are always there. We never had a check-up yet. All I can assume was, we're LDR, and radiations from my gadgets was all over me. Just my assumptions only that caused me not to get pregnant.
Others. I don't know but, I think I have other reasons. Hehe. I'm thankful to my sister who allowed me to stay in their old house. I'll be forever grateful and I hope that I can return the favor in the future by helping them also.
Ending Words
These are my simple reasons why I will soon resign from my work. Huhu. It's hard to think that I will soon leave my students. I love them and I will always miss them. I hope that they will continue to study more. Especially that student who stayed with me from 2018 until now. His English name is Raymond. He was a seven-year-old student when I first teach him. His dad used to stick beside him and guided him while we had our lessons. I remembered, he can hardly utter an English word. But now, he's chatty. π
Instead of focusing in our lessons, he would ask so many questions and talk about other things. Sometimes he sings a song out of the blue. Haha. Naughty boy. And then, we have to rush our lessons because the time is already up. Haha.
I know it will be a painful process to leave. It was my first job and I had it for more than three years. Whew. I believed that there are more blessings to come that might encourage me to do better in my life. May God bless our plans. Everyday, I pray to HIM. π
That's it for today's article. My spiels: "Thanks for booking in my class. See you next time. Goodbye!" Haha, out of habit, I typed this unconsciously. π
Thank you everyone for giving your time. God bless us all! π
The Homebody Me
Hello hello hello everyone, readers and writers in this platform! Also my special greetings to our Rusty as well. βΊοΈ I hope we are all having a wonderful day/night!
***So since I love showing to you my sponsors, let me flex them again and again. Here they are:***
Let me thank these five sponsors supporting me in this platform and also to other users who read and support my articles as well, and interacting with me thru the comment sections. I'm so grateful. Let me mention them. βΊοΈ @Jeansapphire39, @Sweetipie, @FarmGirl, @Wickedsoul, and @BCH_LOVER.
It's really awesome to be part of you all virtually. Yey! More years for these platforms: read.cash and noise.cash to come. A million thanks!!! βΊοΈ
So it's morning and I decided to write an article. I just don't know what time I will publish it. By the time you're reading this, I think it's no longer morning there in your place. Hehe. Or maybe it's dawn.
Let me tell you how a person like me as a homebody does her life. Stay tuned! Charot. π
βΊοΈπ€
My Friends Invited Me
This is something I'm apologetic about towards my friend. Whenever they invite me, I always say 'no' to them. Or sometimes, I have many things to do at home that's why I can't go with them.
One of my close friends before, every Christmas that she went home to our province and I was also there, she didn't forget to invite me. And I'm thankful for that. She always tell me that they will just call my name outside our house and I should go out and join them for a picnic. Once I said yes, she feels happy to me. But later on, when she texts me that they're near our house, my mind would easily change and say 'no' to her immediately. She pleads and say, 'Why? I thought you said yes, please come with us, let's go'. And later on, she'll just say, 'okay', and they're gone. This happens often until such time, that she no longer bothered texting and inviting me. Rather, she calls for other people who are willing to go with her. I don't know but I did that to her many times with regrets. Was it because I was a real homebody person? So many reasons coming out of my mind.
Actually, I was really active when I was a kid in our church. I was so active joining the competitions together with them and so on. I used to be a kid who would say 'yes' to almost everything and excitedly do it. But, until such time that I noticed something. I felt like I'm being abused. Not physically but on how they command me to do things. At first, I was not aware and was okay to me. But then, I gave up and closed myself to the public. I don't know if this was one of the reasons. I don't want other people downgrading me. Mempz.
So yeah, another friend as well, loved to call me before. But she never abused me though. Hehe. Until such time also that, I rejected her requests and no she longer ask for me as well. No more. I just didn't feel going out, rather, I preferred to stay at home during those times. My apologies to her.
Except this one friend, whom I considered my best friend. Although, we go to different religions. She was not the type to command someone nonstop. She also used to be my neighbor and was the one, who used to be the top number one from daycare until we graduated in highschool. She maintained it. And then graduated as a Cum Laude in college. Maybe if she had so much time, she had higher awards. Oh, wow, I introduced her too long. Hehe. This friend of mine, I rarely say 'no' to her. Few days ago, she called me, I hesitated at first but later said 'yes'. Hehe. I feel okay with her.
Sometimes, I also go with my friends if it's about celebration. Like birthdays, graduations and so on. Especially if I miss mingling with them. Just that, I don't go always. Hehe.
So yeah, that's just my story about them and me. So many untold stories but these are some of my experiences.
Over the Years, I became a Total Homebody Person
From the time I graduated in college and got accepted with my work, that was the start that I developed the 'too much homebody me'. It's because I work Home-Based, online teaching. So I just talk with my neighbors like my family: nieces, nephews, sisters... And have class online with my students, or have zoom meetings online.
For almost three years, looking back, I would say, I just stayed 80% at home. No outings except if we have a date with my hubby, or eat out with my family in a restaurant, or go to mass, or buy some groceries, or when I process my papers. If it's an outing with friends or peers, I don't usually go. It's not because I refused it, but simply, I don't have time for it. Their schedules don't match my time too.
So many reasons that I became a homebody person. And now, I feel like a complete introvert as well. Mempz, I hope that by December, everything will be fine with myself. I don't know if it's December that I'll resign from my online work or January. I love my online job, it gave me savings/money and all, but the time it got from me, is something I should get back when I resign. I guess, due to radiation, so that's why, I am not with my usual healthy self. Char.
My Husband Asking Me to go with Him
Not just my friends but my hubby too. When I go home in the province, I prefer to stay at home or sometimes, go to the farm with my parents, or sometimes go out and talk with good and close neighbors. As for my hubby, we plan to go to some places around our municipality. When that time comes, I often withdraw myself and stay at home instead. There's something in me that I don't understand sometimes. π
Gonna solve that mystery soon. So instead of me and my hubby going together, he would go alone instead. My apologies to him as well. Hmmm, I would notice myself loving to stay at home. Cleaning the house the whole day.
Ending Words
No matter what reasons I gave, it should not affect my being. I should have stayed the same and socialize with others more. In college, I avoided people whom I can't mingle with. Hehe. I ended up having two or maybe three to five close friends. π
Now that I realized these things, I should do something to it. Also, there are times that I miss going out. Sometimes at night too. Whew. Let me try to change this developed thing in me before it go worse. Char. Hehe.
That's it for my story as a developed homebody person.
Thanks again for reading my article. I'm so blessed to have you. God bless us all! π€
October 2021's Last Day
Anyeonghaseyo!!! Hello again readers and writers. Great day/night to all of us. I hope you are all having a wonderful time with yourself or maybe with others as we end this day of October 2021. The journey of this month will end in few hours. So, are you ready to let go of October 2021? Sure, let's do it together so the month of November will feel the warm welcome we give. Yohooo.
***Oh wait, let me show you my awesome sponsors. I invite you to visit them.***
Hohoho.... Trick or treat? Happy Halloween ππ. Nyahahahaha!!! Be ready, because someone, will be with you tonight. Someone's voice will be heard tonight. The darkness will be all over the place. Because.... of course.... it is already night...... Muahahahahaha.... Mehihihihi!!!
Hey! Are you alone? Look! The door is open!!! Watch out, someone's knocking at your open door. Who is it? What's its color? Be watchful now and stay cautious!
Your window is open. Look out, you'll see and hear someone calling out your name. The bloody mouth it has, drips over the floor. If you see someone like that, just run!!! Because... you know what it means...
Be kind to everyone around you. Whether unseen or can be seen. You will never know that vengeful spirit roaming around everywhere. They'll instead, torture you... Like the way you did to others.
So how are you? Are you ready to welcome the month of November? Or you're hooked to your October's memories? Let it go!!! Don't hold on, but move on. You can do it! We can do it!
Wipe out those tears coming out from your eyes... Use whatever you have to scare away the nightmares of these past months/years, including this month. Let's always be ready to welcome the new things in our life.
Everyone of us have problems but, let's do our best to solve it.
Sane Words To Say ...
Wow, my charotism has ended now. Hehehe. It just came out from my mind.
So some sane words to say now is that, I enjoyed this last day of October 2021. I'm so thankful for what it gave me. Waking up from thy problems, financially... I hope that I will continue to live a good life like what I have now. As I reflect deeper into the mystery of life, let me grow more... Let God give us more wisdom that will help us to think better of ourselves and of others. Let's make our thoughts sane as always.
So yeah, how did you spend your October 2021? Or do you have any unforgettable memories of this month? Hmmm, for me, no matter how I think of it, I think I don't have any specific things that happened. Just the normal one. Mempz. Maybe, there is, but, I can't remember.
Sharing To You What I did on My Last Day Today
Atleast, I was able to wake up from bed early this morning. So thankful for my nephew to knock on the door, that woke us up. Haha. But I talked to him just now that he doesn't need to knock anymore, every morning, because I'll be waking his sister early at 6:00am. That's their usual waking time. Hehe.
So after, I can no longer sleep so I had coffee and fita. That's how I started my day today. And then, boiled water and bathed myself. Wow, so refreshing to take a bath in the morning always. But just be careful Shiela, you might get sick again.
I readied myself and while waiting, I wrote something in noisecash. My older sister was still not ready, so I did some chores to kill my boredom. After that, she finally texted me and we met on the way, rode a jeep and went to the church for the mass. I love what I heard from the preachings of the priest. I will treasure and apply what he preached. So nice to hear spiritual words that strengthens my being.
Let me share to you a little of it. It's related to everyone. "Freedom of indifference". This seems to be interpreted wrongly by many people. All of us have freedom, right? Like what? Freedom of speech and so on. Connecting the freedom of indifference to it, let's say, you practice your freedom of speech. So now, you say whatever you want and doesn't care if someone will be hurt from your words. Or, you say you have your own personal freedom so you want to jump from the fifth floor to the ground and see what happens after. These are what we call the "Freedom of Indifference". It doesn't always mean that if we have freedom, we think that there is/are no limitation/s. Of course, there's always limitation!
My little niece cried loudly before the mass ended. Mempz. Apologies to all the people there during that time.
After the mass, we went out for our lunch in a restaurant. We enjoyed talking about stuffs with my sister. My niece slept the entire time and woke up after almost two hours. We spent two hours on the table. Luckily, not so many customers came so it was okay.
After that, we bought our own groceries and went home. Fixed it and then, as promised, my sister nail polished my nails on my feet...
What a great day to have! Yes! π€ So productive for me.
Ending Words
What has happened? I was thinking of posting something but I ended up writing this way. Hehehe. I just expressed my silly thoughts. Let it out while we have it in our mind. Now, I'm good and sane after few minutes of my silly thoughts. Haha.
I'm always grateful to those people who read my articles. It's because of you that I continue to write my thoughts. Countless thanks I give you. Thank you so much to all of you. π€ God bless us all! βΊοΈ
My Battles Inside!
Hello my lovely readcash friends and to all of us, readers and writers in this platform. How are you? π
Here's yet another personal article I have. Actually, I posted this before in my old blog in this platform too but I no longer use it anymore. Allow me to repost it again but with some modifications. Thank you. π Please don't be surprised when you read this before. No worries, it's still me. Hehe.
***Wait, let me flex to you my awesome sponsors. Have time to visit their pages and be part of their lives. Here they are:***
So Here It Goes ...
I've been thinking for too long of what article I will publish. This writing might sound peculiar to some but, wholeheartedly I'll write it with feelings. Char.
It's been more than a month since I entered the world of writing or blogging. At first, I have troubles in my mind. Oh no, what should I write, what if my grammars are not good. What if they will criticize me, mock me, or whatsoever thoughts I have in my mind. I was afraid. Normally, I just express my feelings in my mind or thru my facial expressions and not usually in words. I don't talk that much to someone I'm not closed with. There are limited people that I chose to talk to.
What else? I have low self-esteem. But there are times that I'm so high spirited that can go down immediately. Whew, it's really hard. I often withdraw myself from the crowd although I want to socialize more. I'm a homebody person in short. I don't feel bored when I'm alone. I can just switch on the internet then watch dramas. That's the life I live. It's like a daily routine before/ after I do my work since as mentioned, I work as an online teacher.
You know what, I can express myself to my students. It's a one on one class anyway. The youngest I taught was three years old and the oldest was more than 60 years old. I don't feel shy in front of my online students. I even encourage them not to be shy, but wow, I don't do it to myself. Most of the things I say when I teach are genuine. The reason why I say lot's of positive things to them was that, I want to follow that as well. What term should I name myself? Lols.
There are times that I hate myself and love myself. I love myself when I do good. But hate myself when I can't do things right. I just hate it! Why are you like that Shiela? You're a grown up! Why can't you change? Why?! Okay, enough for these dramas already! I'm feeling emotional right now as I write.
I cried countless times at night. Asking why I can't do that, why I always complain about myself? Where can I buy that boosting medicine for my confidence? Can you tell me? I really want to buy maintenance for that.
My Stage Fright ...
As a child, I grew up to be like someone's shadow. Remembering it, I was too submissive. I followed whatsoever they tell me to do. Even though I'm older than them. Maybe, that was just the sign that I have a low self-esteem.
It's when we were in secondary school that I started rejecting their demands to me like saying: 'Hey! Wow! I'm older than you and please, don't treat me that way. Have some respect, pleeeaaassseee. Oh, please.' But still, I can't say no. I feel bad when I do that. What's gotten into me during all those times? Did you grow up like that too?
You know what? Sometimes I act dumb in front of people (or the person I'm talking to). I listen to their explanations as if it's my first time. They explain something that I myself knew already. Maybe that's why, they think I don't know it. Deep inside, I knew.
These things might not be connected but that's how I think, I developed my stage fright! Not just from outside people but of course, inside my family. Hehe. Not to mention.
Just Going On and On ...
Everyday, I try to make things right by simply fixing my bed as a start (Hehe, what?). I always pray that I will have a nice day.
Doing household chores like washing the dishes, sweeping the floor and the likes. I work at home so that's why. I live with my older sister's house separately. If only there's a strong internet connection in our province, I should have been there, but it's okay. I'm glad, they still let met stay for now. I have plans of moving soon.
Dealing With People ...
Avoiding people is what I do sometimes or I just stay silent. I'm afraid to face them. If you see me talking to people, I force myself to do it. Encouraging my own self is what's needed. Not allowing to grow old like this. No, never!
Low Self-Esteem to Self-Reliance ...
I could have started like that but I won't allow 'low self-esteem' to destroy my future. I will fight it! These, I think, should be done:
β’ join seminars
β’ volunteer myself to talk in front of people
β’ study more (So I should know what I'm talking about.)
β’ plan
β’ reflect
β’ and more...
Encourage myself to be a real teacher! Not just with an online setting but in a physical classroom setting as well.
That's it for now. My apologies if I wrote this way. I'm reading a book guide to writing. Surely, I will try to improve more. Thank you!
P.S.: I'm learning about BCH too and it's quite interesting!
So that's where it ends. Yeah, I really love to repost all my articles from before so I could compile all of it here. Then when I have time, I will download everything and print them and make a little book out of it. That's my future project for myself. A mini book. Hehe.
Thank you for reading my article. God bless us all! π
Why I'm Scared
Hi, wonderful readers and writers. Good day/ night to all of us. How have you been? It's Friday today and it will be the weekends again after. Days passes by so fast. Whew. Let's enjoy our day today. π
***But let me of course flex to you these awesome sponsors of mine. Thanks for your continues support. Here they are.***
In this article, I'll try to explain why I'm scared of such creepy stories. Why I stopped watching them. Although, I used to love it during my childhood.
I know, many users here love to read, write and watch scary things. You might find this article silly though. My apologies for that. Hihi. But still, feel free to read it. I find you people brave. How do you take such creepy stories? Are you not scared when you're alone? Imagining as if someone is calling you, someone is hiding under your bed, someone's going to shock you on your ceiling? For me, I'm 100% scared. Haha. You might say, "why imagine all sort of stuffs if you get easily scared?" My answer is, I don't know too. π
Such thought is creative to creepy things.
When I was a Kid
You won't believe but I'm a horror lover when I was a kid. Although I'm alone or not. Those horror sounds it produce, I used to love them. The thrill I felt were really great. I used to enjoy watching them. I remembered a Thailand movie. Wherein, the woman was madly in love with a man for the first time. But then she was raped by her classmates and decided to end her life. From then on, she still wanted to be part of her boyfriend's life, so, she went on the man's shoulder and stayed there. Waaaah, her body's color was pale white, bloody face and so on. I love that. Haha.
Another horror was the ghost roaming around a house. Making her neck longer just to scare people there. Or even chasing people on the stairs. And also showing up outside the window. I find that funny though. But what scares me was their make up. They're like real ghosts. As if someone I could really see when I'm alone.
Everytime I watch horror movies, I actually need someone to be with me when I sleep. Haha. Or if there's no choice, then, I will cover myself with my blanket, all over my body, until morning. Lols.
We used to have TV series in GMA channel before as well. I said this before, the Kakaba-kaba, Chakadoll, and so on. I forgot the rest. Hehehe. That time, when televisions were not yet in everyone's house, my neighbors would come to watch with us. All of us enjoyed watching it. That was an enjoyable moment with neighbors.
I also have a cousin, at the same time my friend and has the same age as me. She's not the type to get scared with horror things. I never saw her the face expression that got scared. Never. Unlike me, who was her opposite. π
π From our house to their house, she needed to walk on the road, about 100 meters long? I'm not sure. After she watched with us in our house, she goes home alone at night. Was she not scared? Or sometimes, she slept over with me. She's a brave soul indeed. Maybe, ghosts were her friends guiding her on the path. Just kidding. She has strong prayers.
Among my siblings, I'm the most dramatic of them all when it comes to horror things. π
They get scared too but slight only. Haha.
Now that I became an Adult
My imaginations got me the most that's why, I eventually stopped watching/listening to horror dramas. I don't want to get sick as well. Haha. Yay, when you hear those sounds coming from it, the cries of the dead calling the living people, their revenge, and so on. I don't want to hear nor see it. Haha. We have unlimited videos that we can watch on the internet but, I chose not too. Instead, I prefer to watch K-dramas and others.
I just watched some, entitled Black, a K-drama. It's not a total scary thing but shows the dead people asking for help. Also, Hotel de Luna and The Master's Sun. I'm forgetful these days so I can't remember the rest.
If it's a pure horror drama, that's what I don't really watch. That feeling when it lingers in my mind and my imaginations starts to be creative. I don't like that. Why in the world that as I grow older, the more I get scared easily. To lessen my emotions, I don't switch off the lights until morning. Haha. It stays with me for days or weeks. So in the future, when I have a house, I want the toilet to be inside the house. Haha. So I don't have to go out at night.
My husband even got angry at me one time. He said, "Why can't you overcome it? Will you continue to be like that?" I was hurt and stayed silent. Hihi. The other toilet in our house, in the province was outside. So everytime I wake up, I also wake him up. Until such time that he got annoyed. π
After that, no matter how scared I was, I never woke him up in the middle of the night just to accompany me outside. Huhu. Char.
Another feelings I have. Have you experienced this too, when you walk past the cemetery, you sing and your voice would abnormally go loud? π As if you're singing on stage? I guess you do. So we have similarity now. Haha. Or, we can walk fast which is not the usual.
And now, in the city while living at my sister's old house, and I sleep alone, I bought a curtain and placed it around my bed. Haha. So I have a romantic dream at night instead of dreaming about ghosts.
There was also a time when I got addicted to Mr. Raffy Tulfo's show. I watched that scary part as well. Some videos have sounds, it was like coming from a girl's voice. So many netizens questioned it. And they call for experts like Ed Caluag who can call the spirits of the dead. It was found out that the building, where Mr. Tulfo's show was, used to be an old one. It was just renovated and that's where they stayed. They found out that there was a girl who got killed there. And wanted to tell people about her story. As if asking for justice. She would even watch Mr. Tulfo and his staffs do their jobs. One time also, according to the staffs, they were about to go home that night. The two staffs were waiting for their workmate who at that time, they thought was in the toilet. They heard that someone flashed inside, with the thought that it was their workmate who did it. When suddenly, their workmate called them from another area. They got shocked and scared at the same time and went out of the building immediately. That was a story according to them. And for me who heard all of those, I suffered for more than a week. I couldn't get enough sleep and I feel scared all the time. π¨ So sometimes, I call my niece to sleep with me, and I was glad that she was willing too. Whew.
Not far from where we live, last year, a businesswoman got killed. She was stabbed many times, her hands, chest, back and legs. Until now, there was no news about the people who did that to her. There was a story I heard about it. That night, her small niece should sleepover, but she went somewhere and celebrated a birthday party with her friends. So her little niece did not sleep with her like the usual. And when she came home, she was about to sleep when those killers came and killed her. I also got a a traumatic feeling from that incident that lasted for almost a month. Whew.
Ending Words
These are the reasons why I stopped seeing or hearing horror movies and stories. Never!!! I don't know when I can overcome these kinds of feelings. I really want to get rid of it. So that, I can watch or hear anything from now on. It was like a battle between me and myself. Hooooo. How to overcome this? Mempz.
Are you like me as well? Or did you overcome it yourself? Wow. So nice to hear then. Congratulations for overcoming it. π I hope me too.
Thanks for reading my article. God bless us all! βΊοΈ
Another blessing has come to me from @Bloghound. I'm so happy and thankful at the same time for sponsoring me. God bless po. βΊοΈ
The Medicine of the PAST, is the FUTURE
Hi readers and writers. Good day/night to all of us. It's me, your friend, Shiela. Charot. Just imitating the spills of YouTubers. Haha.
So yeah, last night until dawn at 4am, I watched videos on YouTube. The curiosity always hits me that's why, I always end up watching until late... It's been weeks since the last time I slept so late.
***As always, let me flex to you my awesome sponsors first. Here they are:***
As I was reflecting this morning, about a specific actress who experienced so many controversial issues in the past, and has now changed, I come up with this thought: "The Medicine of the PAST is the FUTURE." I don't know how others will interpret this. But for me, no matter what issues we've been through, but when we changed our ways and live a good life, then the scars we created to other people might be forgotten. No more hatred feelings towards each other. And there will be forgiveness and understanding.
Watched YouTube Videos Until Dawn
After writing my article in readcash last night, I didn't feel sleepy so I watched short videos. I've watched mukbangs, to celebrity videos, and searched some things that I was curious about. And the ending point, I watched this specific actress's vlog.
The first time I saw her was on TV with her dramas. She used to be one of the famous celebrities in the country and in other countries. At first, when I heard about her issues, I got disappointed and hated her for that. (As if we're close, char.) Many people as well criticized her on social media. I don't have to make her issues known but, she really had issues before while at the peak of her career. I even thought, "Beauty is useless if people will do stupid things in their lives." (As if I'm perfect too. Lols.)
I even skipped her videos whenever I saw her face, especially when she's smiling and so on. She has three kids now and is married to a famous surfer. When I watched one of 'Donekla in Tandem's' vlog with them, I don't know why I clicked and watched it though, I saw the actress. I got even curious and continued to watch the whole episode of the vlog. This time, no more hatred nor disappointments but with admiration. Let me drop her name now, she's Ms. Andi Eigenmann. I guess you guys knew her. Hehe.
After watching 'Donekla in Tandem's' vlog, I went straight to their vlogs as well. Their vlog's name was "Happy Islanders". Feel free to watch them too if you like. βΊοΈ
In their vlog, I saw how happy she was with her simple and quiet life now in the island. She's happily married to her husband. I felt the joy when I watched their videos. What I also like was, her husband loves her first born child. As if they're real biological father and daughter. Acceptance was there with them that's why. I can see Ms. Andi Eigenmann to be a strong woman. I felt that she really cares her husband and loves him dearly.
I admired how she changed her way of living. It's like a sacrifice. From the peak of her career as a celebrity, and going down to the island and lived there for good. She eventually changed. Wow, you're awesome girl. Hehe. And now, she's blessed with three children, two girls and one boy, including their cute little cat too. Hehe.
I suddenly remembered her drama many years ago. I searched it and was so excited that I watched it until dawn. Haha. Wow, supposedly, I should sleep early last nigh. The drama entitled: Galema: Anak ni Zuma. Do you like this drama too? I love it. And I will continue to watch until the end. I'm lucky that it's available in YouTube. I saw one of her dramas too with Anne Curtis. Haha, it was funny and serious at the same time. For now, I'll watch her dramas and movies too.
Ending Words
I no longer feel disappointed in her. She has changed for the better. And for me, I should not disappoint myself too and live a better life as well. I think, I'm her new fan now. Haha.
Actually, I love people who don't publicize their life but keep it within their family and solve it privately. My mom is also like that. Unlike some mothers, she never talked bad about us. And she never run her mouth to the public making issues about her family. She was a matured mother and I admire her very much. I'm actually following her footsteps. Unconsciously, I became a teacher like her. Hehe.
So yeah, "The Medicine of the PAST, is the FUTURE." βΊοΈ
Thanks for reading my post today. Have a great day. God bless us all! βΊοΈ
Listening to Her Problems
Kon'nichiwa to awesome readers and writers. Hope you are all having a wonderful day/night like I do. When I started my blog this afternoon (but finished it this midnight, haha), I had my coffee with three ingredients. The nescafe, milk (instead of creamer), and sugar. I avoided the ready made three-in-one that can be bought from stores a long time ago. To budget my money, this is what I do. I love how I make my coffee so it's best for me. Char.
So here we go again with our article's composition. Sometimes, each day, we plan something new to write. That's what I do everyday. From the very first time I wrote an article here, I never let a day pass without me writing my own article.
***Let me start with it. But before that, I just want to flex to you my awesome sponsors. You'll be glad to visit their articles and read about them. Here they are.***
My Morning Today
As always, your owl sleeps during the day time. I'm a little bit of an owl so I wake up late almost everyday. This morning, my alarm went off at 8:00am and so it was time to wake up. I sat on my bed and checked my online accounts. Few minutes later, my friend texted me. She asked if I have my free time for the morning so I could meet with them in town. I hesitated for a moment but said 'yes' after.
I rushed myself and prepared for more than thirty minutes. Haha. Then walked up the stairways and then down the road, rode the jeep until the town. Before meeting with them, I bought some chips then yakult and water from the grocery for our snacks while we had our chitchats. And then, I met them in the park. My friend also bought pizza for us. Wow, long time no see to them. We were only three by the way. Hehe.
We sat down and asked each other if we're all okay in our life.
Her Cries
Then suddenly, one of my friends cried and said, "Supposedly, I should not come here. But I insisted and asked permission from my husband to look for our kids on my behalf." Oh, I sensed that she has many problems going on with her family.
Problems, whether big or small are still problems. So we should not underestimate it.
She continued and said, "We already have budget to use when we go home tomorrow. But why did my in-laws took a big sum of it?" In my thoughts, that's not supposed to be happening. Why did they get the money intended for travelling?
My friend, same as my age, has four children already. So an eight thousand pesos will not be enough for them. So why would an in-law get the three thousand pesos? And they we're left with only five thousand pesos. Hearing the one side of the story from my friend, my blood was really boiling inside. But then, we listened to her explanations.
She said that, while they're still here in the city and staying at her husband's parents, they provided everything. Like food, some school allowance for his husband's siblings and so on. As if, they became the breadwinner of the family. But thinking that they already have four children, why can't their in-laws work on their own. Knowing that you have the strength, and everything, why not work instead. Well, I don't know if everything she said was true. I was just depending on her story. I just hope that they will be okay.
She also said that one time, she left home and went to live at her sibling's house. She was there for less than two weeks or maybe ten days. According to her, "before I become crazy, I should stay out from this house." Which she really did. So this morning, her husband told him to return home after meeting with us. I hope that mentally, emotionally, spiritually, and physically, she'll become strong for her children's sake/ family's sake. I guess, she's really stressed out.
I beg for all mother and father in laws there to stop making your children who has children as well, to be your money maker. Please, be independent as well and don't just depend on everything they earn. Have conscience and not overdo it. I beg you. Your daughter-in-laws or brother-in-laws might already be suffering from stress due to the pressures you give, in silence. That's my plea to everyone and to myself in the future. Whew.
I'm just worried to my friend. She's emotionally drained from stress. I hope that she can take good care of her self and her family. May God bless her always and her husband. Her husband has soft spots in his heart to his parents and siblings. That's why, he felt like he's obliged to provide for their needs as well. Both of them are first born children. So the typical mindset of others, was to provide for their family's needs even though they have their own family already. But I think, if it's too much, it's no longer good.
Ending Words
As much as possible, I try to be independent. I don't want my parents to include me in their problems. Especially that I'm also married. Me and my husband are both doing okay in our life.
Hearing my friend's situation made me realize many things. God blessed me with many things which I myself took it for granted. I'm so thankful that I met with my friends this morning. To be with them and to hear their stories was a big blessing already. As if there's also a message for me. (I'll just take that personally. Hehe.)
Thanks for reading my article again. God bless us all! βΊοΈ

Their Works
Hello wonderful readers and writers! Greetings from me. Hope you're all having a great day/evening/night like I do. Life maybe hard but let's continue with it. Let's find positivity in every harsh situations happening in our life. We can do it!
***Flexing to you my generous sponsors. If you have time, try to go to their own page and read their articles. I'm sure you'll love to read it. βΊοΈ***
I just want to write something that is in my mind. It will again be related to my nephews and nieces. π
I do love to talk about them in my articles, don't I? Hehe. If we love our family, we can't stop thinking about them, eventually, we write about them as well. Same goes with our friends, relatives, neighbors, and strangers. Charot.
Just some things my nieces and nephews did during their free time. Some fun stuffs that made them happy. And by watching them do it, I laughed and smiled at them. Hehe.
It Became a Clay
Do you still remember the article I made last time? If you haven't read it yet, then here's the link: https://read.cash/@RosheiGanda/the-worst-cook-youll-ever-know-64c84b26
In this article, I talked about one of the worst cooking experience I had.
The left-over dough from that cooking experiment, instead of putting it in the garbage, my big niece and nephews got it from me. I told them that they can play with it, but not eat it. So they did.
While I was cleaning in my room, my niece came to me and showed what she did to the left over brown dough. I didn't expect that it can be played like a clay. I was so happy to see it, so I told her that she should take a photo using my phone. She really did that. Here's the photo of what she made. Animals like a bear, snail, turtle and a duck.
For me to combine these photos, I purposely downloaded an app gallery. Hehe.
Then, I also saw my two nephews making their own clay artworks. They even divided the brown dough into three. So I requested them to make the best out of it so I could take photos as well. After many minutes, I asked them the artworks I requested them to do. They said, "nothing". Aha, then I immediately got coins to give prize to my niece's efforts. My nephews saw it and said, "Oh, what about us aunt?." "You have to make your own, atleast two each so I will give you coins as well," I said. So yeah, they really did. Haha. If there's a motivation, then they'll willingly do it. Char. So here are two photos.
I don't know what the squared one is. As if from the 'Squid Game' style. Char. And another was like a baby image? Or what? Can you tell me what it is? Hehehe. Then obviously, a shape of the lips. Last was the rose. Hehehe.
Haha. So this was the end result of that experiment. After they played with these several times, they threw it in the trash can. Goodbye. Until next time! Charot. I hope, the next time I will cook, there will be a good result atleast.
My Other Niece and Nephews
For the two, my niece and nephew, I wasn't able to take photos of their artworks. Except for this one.
Hehe. This is my nephew's artwork too. While watching on my lappy, he was so silent kneeling on the floor, drawing on my handmade whiteboards. I checked on him and was surprised that he drew these ones. I actually suggested him to draw a house or a castle, and gave him a sample. And these are his drawings. Wow, I really appreciated it. So great.
But, this is the only thing I can't understand. What does this mean? π
If Robin from One Piece can be contacted, then I could have asked her the meaning of this one. Lols.
My three year old niece, whenever she holds a pen/pencil and write, she usually make lines or make several spiral drawings on a paper. I think you can imagine it. Hihi.
Ending Words
I'm looking forward to their artworks. I want more of it. As they improve while growing up, and while I'm still with them, I will take many photos for their memory's sake.
Hehe. Don't be disappointed and please don't expect much from my nieces and nephews. In the future, they can enhance their art skills.
Thanks for reading my article again. God bless us all! βΊοΈ
All photos are originally mine.
Except for the lead image,
I got it from Unsplash.
Thank you. π
Wow, special thanks to sis @FarmGirl for extending your sponsorship to me. God bless po. Thanks for the support. βΊοΈ
Just My Thoughts
Hello again dear friends. Time to write and publish something interesting to read. Hehe.
I was thinking, what would I write this time? Actually, yesterday morning, when we went to the mass, I had other things running in my mind. I was preparing and organizing what I was about to publish today. I hope that it will be explained well by me.
The words, phrases, sentences, paragraphs, or as a whole, this article I wrote, are just base on my opinions. No offense to everyone please. Allow me to voice out how I feel and see the world as a whole.
Childhood Beliefs
I grew up in the province, taught with our own cultural beliefs. My mother also, was an active Parishioner in our church. She imparted in me the Christian belief we have, which I grew up with.
So many beliefs I digested in the past. Which step by step, I understood it.
Let me give you an example, not a belief though. I grew up in a bowl like mountain in our province. I used to think that every places in the world have mountains or pure mountainous. Although we learned in our Sibika/Heograpiya subjects the land forms. But since, that's where I grew up and never travelled to other flat places, that's what I used to think. I was in highschool when we went to a school regional contest. The place where the contest was held was really flat. I can't imagine that there was a place like that. I was like having a culture shock. From then on, I adjusted my way of thinking. Same with the cultural beliefs I used to have.
My Opinions, Their Opinions, Our Opinions
While walking down the road yesterday going to the church with one of my older sisters, and again together with her daughter, we were talking about belief thingies.
She told me that a specific sect was telling that they were the real religions while the rest are all demonic. That was not the first time I heard that. I also had a short time classmate in college who preached me about their beliefs. I was like cornered when she was talking to me. I really can't butt in, and no ideas to say. So I just listened to everything she said, WHICH, in reality was contradictory to my belief. I respected her own beliefs.
I know we have our own religions, sects, that affected us on how we think. But when respect prevails from the things we don't understand, from others, then it will give us a better world.
Actually, for me, diverse cultures, different beliefs and religions made our world colorful. Just imagine if we only have one religion and belief, then we only have one color, right? Don't get me wrong, I'm not talking about our skin colors. Hehe.
Respect
If I look at the bigger picture of the diverse cultures, beliefs, religions, sects, that the world have now, these completes the colors of the rainbow.
Sorry, I can't seem to write out the words I wanted to say. But anyway, I just want us, you and me to be respectful of others. If we don't understand, then better respect. For example, "If I said that color green is beautiful, but for you, color blue is more beautiful. Don't insist on telling me that blue is the best color, rather, respect that I love green colors although you don't like it." Hehe, that's what I mean only. Char.
Ending Words
Let's continue to support each other although we have diverse things happening in our lives.
Am I sleepy? Why can't I compose my words well. Hmmm.
That's it then, thank you so much for continuesly reading my posts. God bless us all! βΊοΈ
Low Confidence? Confident? Over Confidence?
Hello readers and writers in this platform. How are you today? Wow, what a great day to have.
Let me ask, "How confident are you with yourself? Or with your partner, friends, families, neighbors?" I believe some of us have low confidence, just the right confidence, or some are over confident. Hehe. We have different level of confidence, don't we?
In this article, let me write out how my level of confidence are, depending on my moods and situations.
Low Confidence
There are many times that I feel I have low confidence. It's when I'm with my friends who are brainy than me. When they talk about things like their jobs, I can't seem to mingle well with them. So I just stay silent and face my mobile phone. I really can't understand the terms they use since it's related to their jobs. Like high-sounding words for me. I don't know but that's just how I feel. What about you, how do you boost your confidence in front of people?
Other things that trigger my low confidence are: when someone gets angry at me. Like my parents or siblings. When they start giving me lectures about the mistakes I made. Sometimes, instead of getting angry to them as well, low confidence would surround me more. I'm clouded with the words they say. Then I process it in my mind whether what they're telling me are good or not.
In public speaking, that's the number one that scares me. I grew up having that frightening feeling being in front. Feeling like, people would eat me. To defend myself, I practice my speech many times, or ready myself completely. But, sometimes, I fail to execute what I practiced. I would stutter in front, or, I speak fast just to finish my time in front. Just that. It's different when I'm in front of the elementary students though.
When someone embarrass me also, my confidence would elevate down from ten to zero. Then my face would turn red as well as my ears, my body temperature would go cold too.
As much as possible, I avoid lowering down my confidence. To do that, I simply stay quiet, or stay in the house, or just do the things I like alone. There are other things that triggers me to have my low confidence. But, I won't allow that to swallow and affect my being.
Confident (Exact Confidence)
I also have the right confidence within me. Especially when I'm with my nephews and nieces. If we're together, just us, I'm talkative to them. Like finding peace when I'm with them.
As well as finding confidence when I'm talking with my sisters. But most of the time, it's my youngest sister that gives me the boost. I'm expressive to her. Talking nonsense stuff is okay with her too. Haha. With my second, fourth and fifth siblings, they don't give me much confidence when I speak with them. Just sometimes. Lols. But with the others, I'm okay with them.
For my parents, it's my mom that I can voice out myself more. For my dad, maybe it's because I'm a girl that I can't say much. Hihi. When he jokes, I pretend to be silent, but I'm already laughing in my mind. I'm holding onto myself. Haha. But yeah, both of them gave me confidence. They're my parents indeed.
As for my friends, some of them boost me. I love to be with them also. Their presence lighten up my mood. I'm choosy when having friends. Like, if I see that my personality don't match them, I stay away. Silly me.
Over Confidence
What triggers me to have my over confidence? Haha. I have this also. It's when I'm so overwhelmed and delighted or very happy.
When I achieve something, like the reports, paper works, speeches, etcetera; these give me my over confidence. π
Out of happiness, my energy level would reach to the top and so my confidence. What else? I don't know anymore. Haha.
Ending Words
I just want to say to myself that "You're awesome. Just be comfortable of yourself. Just be yourself. Char."
I want to be confident of myself. Just the exact confidence.
What triggers and what lowers your confidence? Hehe.
Thanks for reading my articles again. God bless us all! βΊοΈ
My Day Today
Although I'm feeling tired from whole day's chores, I forced myself to write today. And I love sharing to you about my day. I don't want the day pass without writing at least one article here. It's a new hobby for almost a month now. Hehe.
***Flexing to you my dear sponsors. I invite you to visit and read their articles. You might find them interesting. βΊοΈ***
Morning Moments
Last night, my niece slept over at my room. She woke up earlier than me at 6:00am. She immediately went out of my room and I continued to sleep.
I actually had many bad dreams in my sleep last night until the morning. That was a scary dream that I don't want to remember.
Anyway, while I was sleeping, I heard my little niece's voice outside talking to her older cousins. Those tiny screaming voices woke me up and I opened my window. I saw them playing outside happily. What a nice view to see.
I woke up at past 9:00 am. I checked my phone and saw my sister's message. She texted that we will take care good care of her daughter on her behalf since she will be doing things in town. Oh, so that's why, my niece was with her cousins this morning.
I got up from my bed and boiled water. Then started with my morning coffee with fita. While doing that, I opened my door then later on, my nieces and nephews entered the house. Hehe. They left my little niece with me. I was glad that she was in the mood to play alone and never cried. She saw the only one left apple and said, "Apple, I like apple." She was pointing at it, and so I washed and sliced it. So nice that we ate an apple together. Then my oldest nephew (Peacer) came and ate with us.
After that, I folded my dry clothes. My niece was left alone with me again. While folding my clothes, luckily, her second brother arrived. I gave them one each of the fitas. They liked it as well. I continued folding my clothes, as well as having my coffee and fita at the same time.
After an hour and a half, my sister arrived. She asked if she could continue watching the K-Drama entitled "Mr. Queen", in my laptop, and I said 'Yes'. I recommended it to her since she has more free time and was in the mood to watch. I'm happy that she liked it. She watched two to three episodes of it today, so she's almost done by now.
Noon Time Moments
I was not yet finished with folding the clothes as well as my coffee and fita, when I cooked sunny side up eggs and rice for our lunch together. My guests were here so atleast, I should serve them. My sister volunteered to buy the eggs. Hihi. Then, her son and daughter, ate first. Later on, when all the foods were cooked, we ate next. We had our simple lunch together. Just sunny-side-up eggs and rice. βΊοΈ It was also noon time when I finished my coffee and fita. Haha.
After our lunch, I continued and finished folding my clothes. At last, I finished it. Haha. I thought, it was a thirty-minute work.
Afternoon Moments
My sister continued watching, my niece was playing/writing alone, and her son was watching cartoons on her phone. My other niece and nephews was in their house. But later on, my oldest niece returned, since we had things to do after.
I washed the dishes, wiped the table/burner, then, swept the floor a little.
Then I also got my laundry then started hand washing them. I was outside doing those, and my little niece came as well.
While washing, I heard my oldest sister's dog fighting with other dogs. Such a territorial dog. As if he was guarding our place. I saw his left nostril bleed, while the right nostril was producing colorless fluid. This dog really is suitable for hunting. A kind dog but scary at the same time.
Going back to my other sister, she finished the episode and decided to go home together with her kids. We bid goodbye then.
When they left, as promised, I called my big niece and we went to have our barbecue together. My budget was not enough so I did not tell the others. Poor me. My apologies. Huhu. Char.
We enjoyed our yummy barbecue together. If you want to read, let me tell you what we ate: pig skins, chicken intestines, and pig's blood. For my other readers, I know you don't eat these, my apologies. I love the sauce the seller used for her barbecue, so I asked how she made them. She just laughed and did not tell me her secret recipes. I asked her the second time, but there was no answer, just another laugh. I guess, it's really a secret recipe. Hehehe. So I did not insist on asking her. Hihi. Sly me.
I ended up ordering more. Getting a big sized barbecued hotdog. I had one bite when I decided that, I will have it on my dinner instead, with rice. We went home and I continued hand washing my clothes.
So happy that the weather was fine, that I finished my laundry fast.
After that, I cleaned my place. Organized the things I have. It took me hours before finishing it. Whew. I was really tired. Glad, I finished my chores today.
Washed myself first and then, I had my dinner. I ate rice and hotdog. I felt relieved after finishing the chores today. No work and it was a forced day off for me so I took the chance to do what I liked to do. I planned to visit my friend on the other baranggay of the city, but I just thought, maybe she was busy so I did not continue.
My family neighbors: niece, nephews and their parents continued their day watching on the internet. They connected with my wifi.
Ending Words
That's it for my simple day today. Whew. Thank you Lord for giving me the strength to finish everything today. Hehe. Those were just simple chores but it made me tired down to my bones.
Thanks for reading my article again. God bless us all! βΊοΈ
We are One Family
Let me fully introduce to you my family. I was thinking this morning of what to write and here it is. Time to write about my family also.
***I just want to show you my awesome sponsors. They write great articles so I invite you to visit their page. You'll be delighted to know about them. π€***
Family is love. We used to have a picture frame posted on our wall that has the saying, "A world at prayer, is a world at peace." Not sure if these were the exact words, I can't get a hold of it. Let me quote, "A family that prays together, stays forever." These are some of my favorite quotes. Prayers, respect, dignity, integrity, and other good things should also be taught. That's when we can experience peace inside of us.
Talking about My Parents.
My parents both came from the same province, and that's where we stayed and grew up as a family.
I'm so lucky to have such parents who placed their self interest aside and gave their time to us. They married at the age of 27. They were born in the same year, my dad was a month older than my mom. My father was a resigned Messenger/Utility Worker from an office. While my mom was a resigned teacher from the public school. She became my teacher in Grade 3. Both of them took their early retirements.
They retired because all of us, their children, already finished college, just that one of my sister did not continue in college. Also, they're tired from working and serving the government. Especially my mom, she didn't have plans at first, but when computers/technologies were mostly needed in teaching, she eventually retired. They'll be 65 next year. Now, they're senior parents, and senior grandparents. I find them having a peaceful life now. Enjoying time with each other everyday.
Since they live in the province, their current work now is farming. They're used to it so they don't have problems doing it. I admire how green thumbed they were. They also have patience and endurance in weeding out their gardens. Which I myself, can't do for one whole day. Huhu. I want to follow their footsteps as well someday.
Problems may arise but they're strong enough to handle it. They're the strongest among the family. Salute to my dear parents. β€οΈβ€οΈβ€οΈ
My Siblings
We all have different personalities, characteristics, and attitudes as siblings. We're unique in our own way.
We are seven siblings in the family. If I include our last unborn angel, then we're eight. I'm the sixth among the siblings. I have five sisters and one brother. Like I always say, I live currently at my eldest sister's old house. We are two meters apart only. My third sister is our neighbor, few meters down below. And my seventh sister, is living the farthest from us, three. It's near but I also need to walk up atleast a hundred meters to reach their house. But right now, together with her husband, they're living in the province with our parents. Her casual work is almost done, while her husband is working there too.
The same goes to my husband, he is living in the province away from me in the city. We're LDR.
What about my other two sisters and one brother? Hmmm. Can you guess? They are all working in Manila. But far from each other too. We video call each other using our messenger group chat whenever there's a chance. I hope that they can come home to the province this coming Christmas and New Year. Stay safe my siblings.
Marriage
Two of my sisters, the first child and the third child were married. Each of them have three kids already. One girl each and two boys each. So I have four nephews and two nieces. Ooopsss, sorry, let me include myself and my youngest sister. We were married too but with no kids yet. Let God decide when to bless us with our own young one/s. We will just do our best. Hehe.
A total of four married people in the family. While the other three: the second child sister, fourth child sister, and the fifth child brother, are not yet married. I don't know if they have plans to marry, but I hope that sooner or later, they will settle too. Actually, I have two uncles, one from my father's sibling and one from my mother's sibling, were not yet married. As well as one unmarried grandfather (My grandma's brother-mother side). So I'm thinking, is there a tendency that they will not marry as well? Hmmm. I hope I'm mistaken. But if it's what they want, then I support them. No oppositions.
Many Girls, Many boys.
What's funny was that, my two eldest sisters' husbands, have more male siblings in their family. They both came from big families, just like us.
My eldest sister's husband, have four or five male siblings but with no sister. My third sister's husband have many brothers with only one sister. As for my husband, it was balanced-two girls and two boys. And last, my youngest sister's husband, originally have three boys with one girl as well. What about my other siblings when they get married? I'm also excited to know their future in-laws.
There's also a magic that happened. Charot, no magic. Surprisingly, my third child sister, me, and my youngest sibling, were married to our husbands who were born as first childs in their families. As for my eldest sister, it's a given that she's the first child in our family so it's okay that her husband is not the first child. I'll exclude her in the list. My brother too, has a girlfriend, and she's also the first child in their family. Haha. How about my other two sisters? Will they have boyfriends/ husbands who were born the eldest among their siblings too? I guess, there's maybe a possibility. A one out of ten probability. π
Ending Words
That's it then for my family. Did you understand how I presented them? π I hope so.
Did you also come from a big family just like me? How do you feel about having many siblings? Or are you the only child in the family? How do you also feel about it? I'm curious. Hehe. If you want, you can comment down below so we could interact. Thank you. π
The end of my story. Thanks for reading my article again. God bless us all! βΊοΈ
Dogs in the House
I grew up without having dogs in our house. We never had any dogs nor cats as pets, only chickens and pigs- but they're for livelihood. Curious as why we don't have dogs, my dad answered my questions. He said that my eldest sibling during her childhood days, was a dog lover. He saw how she hugged the dogs. And so, he decided not to get any dogs as pets. He was afraid that my sister will be bitten by dogs because she really loved them. So that's why, no dogs in the house, even until now that we're old.
Staying at my eldest sibling's old house.
I've been staying here for almost three years. So lucky that I didn't have to rent, just electricity bills and water bills that I pay to them. Except my other bills.
My sister has two dogs. Black and grey colors. They were here since the time I came. Then a year later, they gave my sister another white dog. So a total of three.
These dogs love to bark at strangers. They can't be controlled too. That's what I don't like about them. π
Naughty dogs. The oldest was the grey one, next was the black dog and then the white dog. Who taught them to bark to anyone passing by? Of course the oldest grey dog. I heard a story from it. When it was still a puppy, my sister's brother-in-law pulled his tail, and suddenly, he got bitten. Until now, it's a little wild.
I work Home-Based online, so everyday, I pray that their barks will be lessened. But then, I had to ignore and endure it. Shouting to them is sometimes effective, but most of the time, no.
From Two to Three, then Three to Two.
When the white dog grew up, someone bought him. I was in the province when they got him. Now, it's back to having two dogs. This dog was so cute and lovable. I wasn't able to say goodbye though. From two (black and grey dogs), it became three when Whitey came, but, it went away so it's back to two.
Still, these two are always busy barking everyday. From the rising of the sun to its setting. I don't know but, can't their throats get tired from barking all day? That's the only nature they have that angers me. When I work online, and they bark nonstop, I get angry to them easily and I shout their names to the max. And when they don't stop, I would think of beating them on their butts atleast once. But, my anger subside before that happens because, thirty to one hour will pass first, before I go out and see them. π
They knew if I'm angry because they would run away. They're like human beings that can sense harm.
There were also nights that if they don't keep quiet, I go after them holding my props which is the soft broom, just to scare them and sleep instead. I would easily feel guilty when I hurt them sometimes. My heart would ache too. So as much as possible, I just scare them.
What I love About Dogs.
The black dog is very loyal to my sister and her family, including me. Char. Dogs are naturally loyal to their owners and very territorial.
I love my sister's dogs especially the black one. It's because he's selfless, unlike the other one that's selfish. When we feed them, we need to guard the two of them. If not, the grey dog will also eat the black dog's food. I don't know but, the black dog is very kind, but wild when other dogs enter it's territory. It's suitable to be a police dog. For me, it's a cool dog.
So I wish to have atleast one male dog in the future. A male dog so it doesn't need to conceive puppies. I love puppies but, I prefer to have one dog only.

I want to have my own dog in the future. I hope we can train it well to be a better dog and not wild. My husband surely, wants it too. It will be a problem if it beats someone. That will only create a headache because we should bring the person to the clinic or hospital for anti-rabies vaccination.
Dogs are lovable. At first, I want a cat. But I changed my mind. From cat to a dog. I also want to have fish in a small tank, in our living room. Hehe.

Childhood Crushes
After reading @Sweetiepie 's article about her first kiss on her cheek, I decided to share my stories as well. But it will be about my pure crushes from the time I felt the heartbeat. Lols.
***Showing to you first my wonderful sponsors, please visit them and read their awesome articles. I'm sure, you will love it.***
Daycare
Until now, I'm confused who my first crush was. Hmmm. I won't be mentioning their real names though. I'm ashamed, haha.
After so much thoughts, I think, my first crush was boy "J". Whenever I saw him, I felt a strong heartbeat inside of me. I was also nervous. I was in Daycare that time, but I felt those kind of emotions. He was my classmate until highschool. Not always but, my feelings continued to grow but I never cared since he never said that I'm his crush too. π Then in college, we became text mates. It started during the midnight of January 1. After so many weeks, he was like courting me thru texts and calls. I don't know if he was that sincere. I said yes thru the phone but we broke up too on the phone. Funny, right? Haha. But, I felt heartaches during those times.
Next Crush in Kinder...
Now that I realized about it, another crush I had, had the initial of "J" again. Oh, J and J again. But it didn't last. It ended immediately.
Then, another was boy "C". I thought he was my first crush but was mistaken. Hehe. He was handsome too but there was something weird about him so I did not continue.
During my elementary days, I got so many crushes. Their initials were, "S" , "M" , "A" , "M" , "V" , "S" , and others. I considered them as my top crushes because, my strong heartbeats were felt whenever I saw them. Especially with "M", he was an intelligent man, and for me, I saw that he's appealing. Just that, until now, he's a chick boy. Whew.
High School Crushes
My teenage days. I don't have many memories in first year but I believe, I had many crushes back then.
When I was in second year highschool, while sitting on the grass on one afternoon, a long haired cute girl in first year, approached me. She said, "Hi sister, I got my brother's I.D. here. He told me if it's okay to exchange I.D. pictures with you?" Huh, what? I paused and looked at the picture, oh, a handsome man. I admit, he was my crush as well. Haha. I didn't know if I should give my I.D. picture too. Well, I ended giving mine. So we exchanged photos. Ending, we never developed our feelings and no meetups. Lols.
No need to tell my other crushes as I told you in my previous posts in noisecash. Long stories for that. Hihi. I guess my husband is reading my articles now. If you happen to read this, don't worry, I got you. You became one of my crushes too in highschool. Back when you were so skinny and shy. That I thought you were hostile so I never talked to you because, what if, you will not care to talk to me. I will be embarrassed then. π³
I would look at him from a distance without even noticing it. What I hated was, we never danced in our Junior-Senior promenade. He was a year ahead of me. That's what I asked him when we got married. And he said that I always had a tiger look in my face and not an approachable girl. Eh, no way. If he came near me and invited me for a dance, then my heart could have 'went ooopps'. Charot. He should have done for memories' sake. Haha. Mempz. I'll just move on from this bitter feeling that visits me in my memories sometimes. Eish, haha.
Another crush was "K". No certain feelings but I felt like I liked him too. Until college, I had feelings for him. He was also one of my top puppy love. But we never had a relationship as boyfriends and girlfriends. He was not serious with me. He made me experienced heartaches alone. π
Ending Words
I had so many crushes actually. ππ I focused more on my crushes more than those boys who had crush in me. It was like a game of feelings if I am to sum it up. But it doesn't mean that I played with anyone, no, I have a weak heart for that. Hehe.
Let's also read about your crushes or your first crush. Ayiiiieeehhhh. "Memories bring back memories bring back you." What do you feel when you think of your first crush, was it a feeling of excitement? Anger? Nervousness? Hmmmm. How was it? Let's interact in the comment section below. βΊοΈ
Thanks for reading. God bless everyone! βΊοΈ
The Worst Cook You'll Ever Know π
Yesterday, I watched a video in facebook about cooking. I got excited because it only has three ingredients: condensed milk, cornstarch, and butter. I told myself, 'Wow it's easy and can be done simply. Let me try doing this too tomorrow.' And then, I browsed the comment section. It said that, changing cornstarch to cocoa powder will be better. So I got a better idea of adding cocoa powder rather than taking the cornstarch out from the list.
***Before that, let me flex to you my awesome sponsors. Try visiting them and reading their articles. You'll be glad to know their stories. βΊοΈ***
This day, I decided to make it in the afternoon on my free time. Let me tell you how I did it and why I became the worse cook today. Hahaha.
Step 1
I prepared all the ingredients. But I did not measure them. It was an experiment without even measuring. I only used my gut feelings. Haha. Here are the ingredients.
A. Condensed milk.
Please don't be surprised, I did not measure the amount. Hihi. I poured all of the leftovers with other ingredients.
B. Salted Butter.
It was still in a plastic wrapper inside a container. I used a spoon to scrape all of the butter out. The plastic wrapper was in the garbage now.
C. Cornstarch.
I got this from my younger sister. She gave it to me. It was still inside the box. Half of it was used today.
D. Cocoa Powder.
Oh, it's the brown colored cocoa powder of course. I don't know the brand though. I bought this last year. My plan of making 'champorado' using this never happened. So I decided to use it today. I'll just donate this then. I scooped ten spoons of it.
E. Dark Brown Sugar.
This was the only available sugar I had. I added sugar because I only have half cup of the condensed milk. I wanted to make it sweeter so I added more.
F. Water.
I also added half cup of water so I can make a perfect dough.
G. Ordinary Flour.
I don't know but I just added flour as well. It was a real experiment with curiosity. Haha.
While I was preparing the ingredients, I didn't have any thoughts as to what I should expect from the outcome. Just me and my blank brain.
And so I started mixing them together. First was the condensed milk, butter, and so on, the last ingredient was water. I mixed them together until I formed a dough. It was round and shiny so I loved the texture. I was even appreciating it.
My nephew was with me and watched. He tasted the uncooked dough, I asked him if it was tasty and he said, it was sweet and tasty. I was relieved after hearing that. (Did he lie to me? π
I don't know.)
I felt so happy from doing this experiment. And then, I expected it to be yummy.
I formed small round pieces from it. So nice to roll each of them. After that, I used a fork to flatten them, also giving four lines. Oh, it was a beautiful sight for me. I started imagining, of how it will become my masterpiece. π
I placed it in the pot. I don't have oven so I used my mini pot. No cooking oil placed in it. I put it on the stove, placed the prepared small circled dough inside, then heated it for forty minutes.
And here's the fun part that I never expected. It ruined the whole process. Hahaha. What a naive cook I was.
I removed the cover and was shocked to see the result. I was even thinking of having a crunchy cookie. Then munching them in my mouth. But, unexpectedly, everything turned upside down when I saw this. πππ
Tadaaaaaaannn!!!
Did you see it? It flattened on it's own. Each circles combined and formed a pancake size. π Whaaaattt just happened? Then I tasted it, the taste was awful too. I did not dare to swallow it. Even the smell was not pleasing. Huhuhu. I ruined everything.
I came to a conclusion of not repeating this again. I will give up on using cocoa powder for now.
So you saw that I was the worse cook today. I don't want to repeat thy failure. Next time, I should make it better. Whew! I just wasted the ingredients. I never dared to touch the left over dough. What can I do with these? Is there a chance that I can cook the leftover deliciously? Comment down below and teach me how, please. I beg you. π
Thanks for your help in advance. βΊοΈ
That's the end of my horrible cooking experiment. It was a careless and thoughtless experiment and so it failed. Thank you for still giving the time to read this article. I don't really know what to call it. My apologies to all the cooks out there. π₯
God bless us all! βΊοΈ
Nieces and Nephews are like my Peers
As their aunt, married with no kid/s yet, I love to talk with my nieces and nephews. I have four nephews and two nieces from my two older sisters (three-three) for now. Not to mention, I love them all. Since I'm living with one of my sisters' old house, and that I'm alone, my hubby is in the province, I would love to call them and tell stories with them. It's always a joy to be with them. Sometimes, I would get angry to them out of concern, but I see to it that I give them advices after. Letting them understand the situation.
While I'm still here in the city, I will cherish every bit of my time.
For two nights, I slept at my sister's house. Children's cries were always heard from them in the middle of the night. But it was a joy to hear their voices and laughter everyday. This morning, I danced and played with my youngest niece. She was in the mood to stay beside me and imitate children dances as we listen to the music. I'm not a good dancer, but, if I want to entertain them, I force myself to. Haha.
This afternoon also, when I came home, my oldest niece was doing her homework in my place. And then, her older brother, who is my oldest nephew came. They're both teenagers now. These two, when left alone, they would either be friends or enemies. Hahaha. Funny to hear their conversations sometimes.
While I was having my lunch, they were telling stories. We mentioned about their crushes and the likes. Something that's exciting for teenagers. I love teasing them too whenever I get the chance. π I told my nephew, "Ayiiieeehhh, you're in love with one of our neighbors right?" (I was just joking to them though, hihi.) Then my niece suddenly told us a story. That was before the pandemic when they were still going to school, face-to-face.
One afternoon, during their dismissal time, my niece went to her brother's classroom. She went to call her brother so that they can go home together. While waiting at the door, three of her brother's classmates, who were girls, cornered her.
One girl said: "Hey, did you know that I'm your sister-in-law? Your brother is actually my husband."
The two girls also said: "This is your brother's wife, and so we are your family also. Like your 'biyenan'."
My niece was shocked to hear those words. Haha. In her mind she said, "These girls are so crazy". πππ The way my niece told that story made me laugh so hard. Those three girls were even serious while telling it to her. Haha. Teenagers these days though. Hihi. They will just say whatever comes in their mind. Let's always continue to guide them well with patience.
We were laughing while telling stories. Someday, when I'm no longer be staying here in the city, and I'll be in the province, I will surely miss their company. I don't have perfect relationships with my nieces and nephews, but, memories with them are worth remembering. βΊοΈ I'm gonna miss them. Huhu.
How do you mingle with your families? Especially with your nieces and or nephews? Do you treat them like your peers too? Try communicating with them. I'm sure, you'll enjoy hearing their stories. βΊοΈ Let's have a healthy relationship with our family everyday.
Flexing to you my wonderful sponsors. Try opening their page and you'll surely reading their articles. Here they are:
