My Intense Love Story **May 1, 2022** A blessed Sunday readcash community. Today is the first day of the month of May. Here in our country, Philippines, we commemorate Labor day - a day that is dedicated to all workers and their right to have a good labour conditions. I salute all the hardworking laborer all around the world. I memory came to me that there was a comment from sis @Momentwithmatti asking where she could read about my 8 long year failed relationship. I browsed my published articles and I noticed that I haven't shared the whole story why our long relationship gone to waste. I only gave a peak of the story to some of my published drafts, thus today I decided to share it with you about my intense love history. I am not a good storyteller so please bare with me. But first, let me share to you a little background of what intense love is. Intense love is the second stage of love according to the *The Three*  LOVES THEORY of Roxie Nafousi. This is the stage of love where we experience the very painful breakup. Yet this is also the stage that we learn what we do want for love and what we don't. **Story Time!** I first met him when I was a grade six pupil. We had an event in our school and they participated. He came from the other school. I recognized him for he accidentally hit one of our teachers with a soccer ball. I thought to myself how naughty that boy was. High school came. We became classmates but I didn't consider him as close friend. He was so naughty and loud the reason that I didn't like him. Second year high school when we became friends for we were partner on a social dance activity on one of our subject. From that day on, we hang out together and he helped me make some of my projects. We became best friends as years went by. When we were in fourth year, he courted me. I didn't answer him right away for I was contemplating myself if it is worth to risk our friendship. But then I took that risk. I answered him. Our relationship when were in high school was not easy for most of my friends and teachers were against on him. Well, I understand them for he was bawdy yet he has a good sense of humor. Graduation came. I got woebegone for it was the first time that we parted from each other. Our communication was hard for I have no cellular phone to use to call or text him that time. Months later, my father bought me a phone as his gift. I got elated for finally, I can be able to communicate with him. Few years passed, our relationship got stronger. There was a time that I made a mistake by being a two-timer. He made me chose who among them I wanted to be with and of course I chose him. I regretted what I did and he forgave me for that. My family was also against him especially my cousin. They didn't like him for they believed that he will be like his father who is playful with women. But I fought our relationship. My father told me to break my relationship to him but I was too hardheaded to listen to them. We are still in a long distance relationship for he was already studying in Manila. We became in that situation since the first time we parted after our high school graduation. He just went back to our province every twice a year or every end of his semester. However, when he got a job after his study, we seldomly had a chance to see each other. But despite of that, we continued our relationship despite the people who tried to separate us. When I decided to pursue college, he supported me. My first and second year in college was not so hard for me for he helped me especially my financial needs. It was summer, he vacationed to our province. I was so happy to see him again. That time, I surrendered everything to him. Months after he went back to his work, he proposed to me. Who am I to decline that offer? Of course, I said yes with the condition that I have to finish my studies first before we get married. He accepted my condition and we continued our days with no problems. I think I am going to cut it here. I apologize for cutting my story for I need to tend my daughter first. I'll just published the continuation of the story tomorrow. Thank you still for reading. I appreciate you all a lot. Till tomorrow guys. Ciao for now. Flexing my generous and amazing sponsors.

Let's Try This Deep Questions To Ask April 30, 2022 (Saturday) What's up madlang readcashers! Today is a great day. It's weekend, payday to those who are working and last day of the month of April. Tomorrow is a new month and new opportunity to achieve the goals in our lists. I tried to track back my performance here in this platform for this fourth month of the year and I can say that I did a good job for I pass what I expected. So, good job self (*tap on my shoulder). I wanted to write my monthly report today but maybe I'll just pass. Instead I opted to browse and look for another topic. I searched some questions on Google and I stumbled to this one. If you want yo answer, you can find the questions here: 371 Deep Questions to Ask Someone [Updated for 2022] https://www.developgoodhabits.com/deep-questions/ *****How important is trust in a relationship?**** - I personally believe that trust is one of the most important ingredients in a relationship. It is the ingredient that can build the stability of the couple that can make the relationship lasts. As they say relationship without trust is like a car without gas. You can stay in it won't go anywhere. Trust is essential especially those who are in a long distance relationship. *****What was the most important lesson you've learned from your past relationship?**** - I think the most important lesson that I have learned from my past relationship is that you should learned to leave something for yourself. There's nothing wrong with loving your partner with all your might but you should not forget to love yourself also. With my past relationship, I was completely shattered when my ex-boyfriend cheated on me for I gave everything that I am and I have to him. I made him my world and I even surrendered my body and soul. Yet, that was not enough for him so he cheated. When that happened, I got broke into pieces that I almost took my life. Glad that God still save me from that darkness. *****Which would you prefer: having a baby without a partner or a partner without a baby?**** -Before I met my partner, I had this thought that I want a baby even without a partner. I witnessed some of my old maid relatives who feel lonely for they don't have a child of their own. Though they have nephews and nieces but I think that it is still different if you take care of your own children. But of course, having a baby with a partner is still best. *****When you were a kid, what did you say you wanted to be when you grew up?**** -When I was young, everytime I am asked what I wanted when I grow up, my answers were all the same, I wanted to become a teacher someday. With my young mind, I thought that being a teacher is a chill job. Have a nice uniform and just make a grade for the students. But now, I realized that being a teacher is one of the hardest job in all occupation. It is not just about giving lessons to the students but it is about molding and shaping their future. *****What is your favorite part of a house, and why?**** -Bedroom. Why? It is the place in the house where I can show all my emotions. I am not open to my parents about my feelings for I was always afraid that they can't understand and won't validate my emotions. When I am sad or broken, my pillow is the only witness for they are the ones that gets wet everytime I cried. *****What musical instrument do you know how to play?**** - I know how to play guitar but not that good. When I was in fourth year high school, we had a practicum in playing guitar. I was only able to learned the basic chords for my brother brought my guitar to his OJT days at Cebu and didn't bring it back. That guitar was given to me by our father and when he learned that my brother took it, he got mad. *****Which member of your family do you feel closest to, and why?**** -My sister, our youngest. Among our siblings, she is the one that I grew up with. We are six siblings and we grew up apart from each other. Me and my youngest sister grew up at the same roof. Maybe that is the reason that we are so close to each other. We are each other's shoulder everytime we encounter different problems in life. This is for today fellas. Thank you for reading. Till next time. God bless everyone and have a great weekend. Flaunting my amazing and generous sponsors. Lead imag: Edited using Canva app.

Spoiled Child, Whose Fault? **April 29,** **2022** **(Friday)** Hello, hello readcash community. It's another Friday and tomorrow is gonna be a rest day for some but for a mother like me, everyday is working day. We don't have holidays but it is still worthwhile for performing our duties like taking care our children is the most beautiful job especially when we see them smile. So, kudos to all mothers out here. Why there are children who are spoiled? What makes them like that? What could be the possible factor of their behavior? Why am I asking those questions? The other day, my brother called me. It was his day off so we had a long time chitchatting. My brother is currently working at David's salon.I learned that he was reassigned to Laguna. I told him to pay a visit to our biological mother since Laguna and Cavite is just a neighbor town. He just laughed. Maybe he doesn't want to go there. Well I can't blame him. Until he shared to me that there was one time that the mother let out her frustrations about her daughters, which are our half-sisters. She shared to my brother that she and her daughter had a huge fight. Her daughter asked her to buy I think that was a jewelry but she declined for she didn't have enough money. Her daughter got mad and they fought. Her two daughters are spoiled according to my  brother. There was also one time that the mother had got positive by the COVID-19. I think that was last year when my brother informed me about that news. Though my brother has a tiny grudge for the mother for what she had done to us, but that time, he felt sorry for her. Why? Her daughters didn't take care of her. Instead, they were with their friends hanging everywhere around. He saw their posts being with their friends enjoying in the cafe or in the beach. They just neglected their mother who suffered. But whose fault is that? Who's to blame? I told my brother that it is the parents fault why his half-sisters are spoiled or acted like that. Well, it is the parents responsibility to give their children's need. But they should also give limitations and not pamper them to much. There are many cases that many parents want to shower their child with their undying love and tend to overdo it. Pampering children is different from loving them. There's nothing wrong in giving them gifts but we also need to explain them that we can't give them everything they want. I understand that it is the parents innate urge to please their children by always giving them gifts. But this behavior may led the children to think that they are entitled receiving those gifts. So as young as they are, it is very important to teach and inculcate them the importance of hard work in order to acquire things. Now with my daughter, I started to teach her that she needs to earn a present. I didn't buy her presents everyday for aside the fact the she didn't like it, I also don't want to spoil her with things. I personally believe that if you love your children, you will teach them with good behavior. Disciplining them is a good way of showing our love to them. Teaching them with the good behaviors is the best thing we can give to them as a parent for they can bring it when they grow old. This is all I can share for today fellas. I failed to write yesterday for I was not in the mood because of the not-so-good circumstances that happened. I did try to read some articles but I can't comprehend much the topics for my mind was so bothered. But now, I'm feeling better and able to be productive. Yeyyy, I am happy for myself.haha charing. Thank you guys for reading. I appreciate your time. Till the next blog. Ciao! Flexing my generous and amazing sponsors. Lead image: Edited using Canva app.

Things That Made Me Happy Today **April 27, 2022 ( Wednesday)** Good day readcash people all over the globe. How are you all feeling today? We are now at the middle of the week. Time swiftly flies eh. Few days from now, we will be welcoming a new month - the month of May. What are the things that you look forward? As I contemplate what to write today for as usual, my mind is kinda blank and not able to think of something to write. I browsed at google hoping to find a good topic but I failed. I see different prompts but I don't feel of writing it today. Thus, I'll just share another whereabouts of my day. So, what are the things that made me happy today? Firstly, I am happy that I still able to wake up today and welcomed my morning with a beautiful smiles from my two lovely people - my partner and my daughter. After having a morning cuddle with them, my partner served me my special drink every morning which coffee (coffee is life) paired with cheese and sandwich. Though this day is just a normal day but I still fine happy things that I appreciate. One of the things that always make my day completely whole is when I see my daughter smiling and happy. When things about her is fine like she is healthy and energetic. I am also happy watching my partner doing his daily works and he is in a good mood today. In other words, the first thing that made me happy today is my little family. The next thing that made me feel happy today is I finally finished sewing my DIY (Do It Yourself) short. It's been a week since I wanted to do this but it always slipped on my mind. I have a white jeans that I bought when I was in college and it's kinda tight on thighs now, so I decided to make it a short shorts for it to be useful. It's been in my dress drawer for a year and the color is slightly faded and it's pity not to use it. Thus, this afternoon, after I put my daughter on her noontime nap, I quickly took a bath so I can perform the unfinished business. I am not good in sewing and I have no idea how to sew it neatly. What I did? I used the power of YouTube.Lol I searched a sewing tutorial and I followed it. It took me more than two hours finishing only one short. It was not easy for I always made mistakes and I have to go back from the beginning. Until finally, I learned the technique and that was the time I smoothly finished my short shorts. Lastly, the thing that made me happy and completed my day is I able to eat salted eggs again. It's been a long time since the last time that I eat salted eggs as my viand. When I was in college, I usually love to buy this food. I started to learn to eat salted egg when I was working as housemaid. My employer's daughter loves to eat salted eggs. At first, I didn't like it for I find the taste was weird but later on I started to like it. Now, it became my one looking food. This night, I requested my partner to buy me a salted eggs and CLOSING THOUGHT Happiness is something that everyone wants to have. Some people think that happiness can be obtained through acquiring bundles of money, owning lots of businesses and being successful. Well, yes there is happiness in those that I mentioned but that doesn't mean that it is the only way for us to be happy. We can also find happiness in every small things that we do in everyday living. Happiness is everywhere. It is just up to us to choose to be happy. So, how about you? What are the things that made you happy today? Care to share? It's a wrap guys. I do hope that you are happy today. Thank you so much for reading. Till next time. P.S. Someone added my happiness today! @Thania05 and @foryoubtc09 just renewed their sponsorships. Thank you so much guys for making me happy. God bless you both. I declare more blessings to you and to your family. Flexing my generous and amazing sponsors. **Lead image: Edited using Canva app.**

Answering Some Love Questions **April 26, 2022 (Tuesday)** Three days ago, I happened to read at ma'am @MizLhaine 's article about questions to ponder about relationships. What a good timing for yesterday, I published about our monthly celebration as couple and our past. And so today, I am going to answer those questions too. I generated the questions at the same link where ma'am Mizlhaine got it. If you wish to make an entry, you can find the questions in this site: 53 Relationship Questions That Will Make Your Love Life Better. https://www.lifehack.org/articles/communication/53-questions-ask-that-will-change-your-relationship.html ****What was your first impression of your partner?**** -My first impression of him was he is strict and timid. We were classmates when we were in first year college. I always saw him at the back of the class and he was very silent. He has always wore a serious face and won't even talk to his seatmate. But now that I know him more, I can say that my first impression on him was wrong. ****How did the relationship start?**** -Our relationship started as a friend of course. But we became friends when we did a photo prank. From that day on we teased each other. He called me "asawa ko" and I called him the same. And I never thought that that prank became true in the future. This is our prank photo. My roommate uploaded it on Facebook and tagged us. We received many congratulatory messages and even our professors also sent queries if it is legit. Others also caught us that it was just a prank. ****What did you like or love about your partner?**** -He is a warm-hearted person. Even before when we were still studying, every after school, he always bought snacks for me. If we have the same class schedule, he first sent me to my room before he go to his and fetched me after his class. He took care of me whenever I got sick and won't leave me until I feel better. ****Do you still like what you loved about your partner and why?**** -100% yes. Now that we have a daughter, he is even more caring, not just to me but also to our daughter. ****Are you positively affecting each other’s life?**** -I think yes. When we became together, I learned how to control my temper and even learn how to lower my pride. And for him, I think I also positively affect his life. His mother told me that my partner really changed when we became together- a positive change. ****Have you started to do something because of each other’s influence?**** -Yes. My partner started to learn how to cook when we became together. In our boarding house before, I used to cook and so he asked me to teach him. On the other hand, he influenced me on playing mobile games. ****How often do you laugh together?**** -Everyday. ****Can you recall the most romantic moment with this partner?**** -We were not in a relationship that time. We were watching a variety show in an elementary school together with our friends and my landlady. I was seriously watching the show when he suddenly tapped my shoulder. Then he told me that he just killed the mosquito. I looked where the mosquito was then he showed me his hand. I searched the mosquito but I didn't see one. Then I realized that his hand was in a finger heart sign. I laughed hard for it took me a minute to realize. ****When was the last time you said “I love you” to your partner?**** -Last night. We always say this beautiful words everytime we go to sleep at night. ****Do you respect each other’s beliefs?**** -Yes we do. We have different religions but we never tried to convince each other to convert. ****How do you feel when your partner has to leave you for some time because of work or study?**** -It would be a big adjustment for me. If he will leave for work, I need to do all the household chores and the same time look over our daughter. But, it will be okay for me for I know that it is for the sake of us. Hello, hello readcash citizens! How's everyone here? I hope everyone is happy and safe wherever you are. I thank you so much for spending your time reading this blog of mine.

Sweets And Sweet Memories **April 25, 2022 (Monday)** Magandang araw readcash community! First day of the week. I hope everyone is having a bright-eyed and bushy-tailed Monday. Today is a special day to me and my partner. Why? Because this day marks as our 46th monthsary. Two more months, we will be celebrating our 4th anniversary as couple. To celebrate our special day, I made a mango float yesterday and he bought a 1 gallon of ice cream. Usually, we don't celebrate our special days lavishly for we don't have enough budget and we also believe that it is not significant to have that kind of celebration. What's more important is the foundation of our relationship remain formidable. We always celebrate our monthsaries, though in a simple way, to revere our journey as couple. My partner and I have gone through many trials in our relationship. Before we became together, but we were on a mutual understanding status, there were many issues that we faced. The top of them was about our past relationship. My partner came from his 5-year relationship with his ex-girlfriend while I was also came from my 8-year relationship with my former boyfriend. There was a time that his ex-girlfriend's friends and classmates spread gossips about me. But, I ignored them. Our age gap was also an issue before for I am 6 years older than him. There were also other people who advised me not to be with him for as they say he is not a good person. He has a problem with his attitude but I see different. He is the sweetest and most caring person I know. Thus, despite all those issues, we chose to pass it over and went on what makes us happy. I accepted him to be my boyfriend and I can say that I didn't feel regrets on my decision. Just like any other person, my partner is not perfect. He has flaws and weaknesses but he tried to manage them. There are inevitable days that we fight but he is always the one who approach me first and say sorry. I mean mostly, there were also times that I made the first move to reconcile if I'm at fault. As a father to our child, I can say that he is a great dad. He is very hands-on to our daughter even before when he was still studying. He won't go to school if he can't make sure that he already prepared all the needs of our daughter and mine. I am just happy with him. The collaged photo above is me and my partner. Please bear with our faces.haha We were college when that pictures were taken and as you can see, I am still small or thin in the photo. These pictures were captured during different times when we celebrated our monthsaries before. I gather them on my Facebook and collage it using the Canva app. This is also the dessert that I made. It tastes good because it is not so sweet. I forgot to get the picture of the ice cream for we eat it right away.hihi Every relationship is not perfect. There are ups and downs that you need to face. There are days that you are happy and there are also days of misunderstanding. It is hard to build a happy and healthy relationship, yes it is. It needs much ingredients to achieve that relationship but as long as you both work hard, you will have a satisfying relationship. This is all I can share for today lasses. Thank you for reading. I appreciate the time you spare for this draft of mine. Till the next blog. God bless all of you. Always remember to be safe and healthy. The pandemic is still present so we still need to be mindful with our health. Cherry bye!

Sibling's Life That Comes From A Broken Family **April 24, 2022 (Sunday)** Hello! Hello people of readcash community! How are you all? I hope everyone is having a great day today. Yesterday, I failed to be active here and even missed on publishing for I was resting my eyes from the radiation. I also decided to rest my mind for it seems to be so active that even at night it still keeps on wandering that made me sleepless for three consecutive nights. At this moment, I am feeling better which good. Yesterday, my older sister called me through messenger. At first, I was hesitant to answer for I was thinking that she will just bother me on something. Well, my sister is a little bit annoying sometimes. But still, my being-a-good sister side prove superior, I answered her with a very big smile. She asked me right away if I knew the date of our brother's wedding. (Wala man lang kumusta:-D Anyways, I'm already used to it.) I answered her no. She told me that our aunt called her the previous day asking her if she will attend on our brother's wedding. She was confused for our brother, older brother, did not inform us that he will settle down. Yes, our brother is secretive but I think he has no reason to hide it to us. It's a big occasion and I think we have the right to be informed since we are his siblings. I chatted my younger sister last night if she have an idea on our brother's wedding. But same of us, she also didn't know. We just laughed the fact that our brother didn't inform us or invited us on his big day. Well, on my side, I understand him. We did not grew up together so maybe it slipped on his mind that he has siblings in far places. I was 17 years old when I met him and everytime I visit on my grandmother's house (my mother's side) where he lived, we're kinda distant from each other. He is even closer to our cousins than us, his own siblings. I also asked my other brother just this afternoon if he have news that our older brother will be getting married. And again, he is also unaware that his only brother is going to settle down. He also have no communication with him. They are friends on Facebook but they don't communicate each other. Among us siblings, this brother's of ours is the only one who is standoffish one. Well, we can't do anything about it. It's his big day and it's his decision if he won't invite us. Despite this not so good intimation, I still heard a good news yesterday. What is that? We will be welcoming another member of the family for my sister is carrying her second child now. I am still happy for we will be receiving another blessing of the family. My sister' doctor advised her to be careful for her pregnancy is difficult. She is in a bedrest now for she is anemic and she needs to have blood transfusion to keep the baby safe. I pray that her pregnancy journey will be fine. Let me share to you this dessert that I made earlier. I craved for something sweet today so I decided to make a mango float. My siblings have never been together ever since we met each other. We grow apart for our parents neglected us when we were young. We were given to different people to take care of us. That is why we are distant to some of our siblings. Perhaps, we will not be like this if our parents did there responsibility and unite us. But we can't turned the time back. We need to move forward and go on with our lives. With that, I made a promise to myself that I will do my very best to give my child a whole and loving family. That's for today fellas. Thank you so much for reading. I appreciate so much the time you spare for reading my write-up. God bless all of you. Keep safe and be healthy all the time. Till my next blog.

Let's Travel (This and That: Travel Edition) **April 22,****2022** **(Friday)** Good day readcash community! Happy flyday Friday to all of you. It's been two nights that I haven't sleep well for my insomnia is back. Thus, I am feeling lightheaded as of this very moment. I'm having a second thought of writing today yet I realized that I was also unproductive yesterday due to my headache. I need not to miss another day for I have a goal that needs to attain. Moreover, I am also bothered by my dream three nights pasts. It was about a catastrophe that I mostly terrified of. Maybe that dream triggered my insomnia. For now, I am going to join a prompt that I have read from sis @BCH_LOVER 's article which she also read from the other writer. As a matter of fact, it's been a couple of days that I save this prompt on my Keep Notes. Now, I am gonna finish this today. ****Adventure/Relaxation**** -I love to have adventures but for now, I want to have a relaxation. When I became a mother, almost everyday is a tiring day for me. Especially now that my daughter became a bit adventurous and curious in everything around her, I need to be more attentive and focus on eyeing on her. I have to follow everywhere she goes and look what she's playing or holding for there were times that she eat what she played or she might get sharp things and I'm afraid it can cause accident. Being a mother is indeed an enervating job. Honestly speaking, right now, I am longing to have a day of relaxation. A day where I can relax and escape a moment and think of nothing. A day where I can peacefully on the bed watching my favorite Korean movies with snacks on my side. But I guess that longing will remain a dream for mothers' have no day off or a break. ****Massages/Camp Fire**** -I would definitely go for a massage. I have tried to have a full body massage when I was 22 years old and I really missed the feeling of it. I still remember when I feel like my whole body felt so relax after I had that massage. I even had a good sleep when I arrived home. Last night, I asked my partner to pummel my back and head so I can sleep but it was a failure. My partner is not a good masseuse. I think I really need a professional one. ****Paragliding/Swimming**** -I'm an acrophobic person so I will choose swimming. I remember when I was in high school, I was a member of a cheerleading squad. Since I was a teeny-tiny dancer, I was always selected to be lifted and perform some aerial tricks. But, I have a phobia of heights that is why I always fail to do the tricks. I always fell everytime I mount on anyone's shoulder. ****Posh restaurant/Street Foods**** -I always have tried eating street foods so this time I want to choose posh restaurant for a change. I have tried eating in a Japanese restaurant once when I was working at the city and I want to try it again. This time, I want to bring my family for them to also try eating in a fancy and elegant dining. But for now, I need to save first for me to able to grant this dream of mine for we all know that eating in a posh restaurant is quite expensive. ****Sea View/Forest View**** -I have been living in a coastal area more than half of my life so for this round, I will pick the forest view. According to a study, a forest view has a positive effect on psychological healing and well-being of a person. On my personal experience, whenever I'm in a mountain, I can say that it really feels different. It feels like you can forget all your problems or worries in life especially when you can witness a breathtaking view. ****Hotel/Apartment**** -Without a doubt, my choice will be hotel. Who wouldn't like to stay in a hotel? Especially if it is a five star hotel, right? Staying in a hotel is good if you wanted to relax and have fun and the accomodations are good. Last year, my partner's mother planned to have a staycation in one of the hotels in Ormoc City but it was being cancelled because of Typhoon Odette. I was a little disappointed for I really looked forward on that staycation for that was supposed to be my first time staying in a hotel nut it was terminated suddenly. This is all I can share for today guys. Thank you for sparing your time reading this work of mine. Till next time. God bless everyone and be safe all the time. Flaunting my amazing and generous sponsors. **Lead image: Edited using Canva app.**

Purloiner In The House? **April 20, 2022** Aloha readcash citizens. How's your Wednesday going? Hope everything is fine at your ends. Today, the blue sky is smiling to us. The weather is fine though there are times that rainwater pour from time to time. Howbeit, everything is fine and we spent our day with our daily routine. What would you do if you know that there is someone in the family who purloin things from you? Are you gonna tell it to the family or just remain silent? It's been a couple of days since I noticed that my saving money on my piggy bank is shrinking. I put 10 peso coins, 5 peso coins and 50 peso bill on it everytime I have an excess. I am also a hundred percent sure that I put 1 hundred peso bill on it too. My piggy bank is just a can from a Virginia pasta. It is an elongated can with an easy cover to open. Thus, everytime I put money in there, I can see inside. One day, when I was about to put my extra 10 peso coin, I noticed that the hundred peso bill is gone and there were only three 50 peso bill left and one 20 peso bill. The coins also seemed lessen for the can weighed lighter. I asked my partner if he might take money from my savings and he answered no. I was confused for I didn't take even a single coin from that saving. That saving is intended for my daughter's birthday. I always saved money for her birthday so I can have a contribution for her celebration. I always made sure that I can buy here new dress or gown as my present for her. Her birthday is yet far from now but I am sad knowing that there is someone who sneakily take from my savings. Our room has no door so anyone can enter and out. My saving can is placed behind on our laundry basket and I covered it with a cloth. I am confidently believe that no one will have interest on my little savings. Also, it's been two years that I hid my saving can on that location and nothing ever like this happened. I told my partner about it for I am downhearted of what I saw. He was also incandescent but I just told him that we can't point our fingers to his sister for we don't have evidence. Yes, he suspected his two sisters. One of his siblings has history of stealing so he thought that one of them might be the culprit. Also, we are just 5 in the house including our daughter. I don't want my partner to confront them for I know that they will report it to their mother and my partner will end up be the bad one. Sometimes it is better to stay silent to avoid trouble. I just told my partner to forget about it and I will just put my saving can to the other place or should I say to a safer place. Now, I hid my saving can to the place where I can put lock on it. I'll be more careful at this moment. Let me share this halo-halo with no ice cream. Maybe the attending of the store forget to put one. They have many customers when we bought this and she was the only one who accommodate us. So, we just understand her and did not complain. That's it for today lasses.

My Frequently Visited Apps **April 19, 2022 (Tuesday)** Annyeonghaseyo readcash community! How are you all doing? I wish you may have the best day ahead this Tuesday. *What did you do when you feel bored? What are the things that can assuage or alleviate the dullness that you feel?* There are moments in our life that we lost interest in doing something aside from holding our phone and browse different apps to please ourselves. Today, I will share to you the various apps that I frequently visited. First on the list is my **Bitcoin Wallet app**. Every morning, when I wake up and got my phone, this is the app that I firstly open. I checked the value of the BCH if it pumps or dive down from time to time though I don't have much in my wallet. It became my habit to visit this app when I feel in love with this platform. I am always elated everytime I see the color green and the arrow points at the top. Next is the **Candy Crush game app**. I started to get smitten by this game when I got pregnant. I was always bored for my partner was still studying at that time and I was left in our boarding house alone. Thus, whenever I was not at mood reviewing for my exam, I entertain myself with this game. I already know this game when I was at college for my landlady was hooked by this game. Sometimes, she let me play at her tablet whenever she do her errands. Up to this moment, I am still playing this game almost everyday and I now reach at 3151 level. **TikTok** is on my next list. I made an account to this app but I only uploaded few videos. Those videos are all my daughter's good time. My partner always told me to join those dance challenges but I always said no for I am not comfortable watching myself on a video. But what I like in this app is it gives me good vibes especially when I am not in a good mood. I mostly watch tarot card readings, dance challenge, mukbangs, funny videos, and simple cooking recipes. Sometimes I followed the video if I like the recipes that I watched and if I can afford the ingredients. I skip those videos that are related to politics. I don't want to ruin my day. **Facebook** is on the next list. I bet everyone has an account to this app. At this present of time, Facebook is kinda toxic because of the approaching election here in our country. It brings bad vibes to some users, including me, so I limit myself on engaging this app. Nevertheless, I still visit this app everyday to check if there will be memories that I can review. In addition, I always visit this app to see if there will be new uploaded pictures from my family to make myself updated with their lives especially to my sister. I just love watching them even through pictures only. We seldomly communicated with each other for we are both busy with our lives. Second to the last on my list is my **Messenger app.** Of course, this app is very useful not just for me but to all of us for this is one of the tools that we can communicate other people wherever they are in the world. Just like my partner's mother. She is in Germany right now so whenever she wants to check her children here in the Philippines, she will just chat us on messenger. Everytime she misses her grandchild, she will video call us. This app is very helpful to those who are apart from each other. When it comes to site, this platform is the only site I visited the most. Though sometimes there's a day I failed to stop by here, but I always make sure that I'll be back and be present and read here. This platform is such a great help to me so I won't leave and continue my journey. I just pray that this will stay forever. It's a wrap fellas. This is what I can share for today. Thank you so much for reading. I appreciate all your support. Till next time. God bless and be safe all the time. Shout out to my ever supportive and generous sponsor @Bloghound . Thank you so much sis for staying in my sponsor's list. I declare abundance to you and your family.🥰 Flexing my generous and amazing sponsors. **Lead image is edited using Canva app.**

Cleaning At Easter Sunday **April 17, 2022 (Sunday)** Hello, hello readcash community. Happy Easter Sunday to all of you! How did you celebrate your Easter Sunday? Are with your family in the beach or anywhere else? Way back when I was young, celebrating the resurrection of Jesus was one of my most anticipated day of Lent. Why? Because we will be on the beach together with our neighbors. Each neighbor will bring foods and put it together in the table. We share what we can offer. It was very much enjoyable memories for us. But now, all I can do is to reminisce those days. As I grow older, those what we accustomed to started to dwindle. My partner's family is not Catholic. Though they still celebrate the Holy Week but not as the same as Catholic. They also have egg hunting during Easter Sunday. My partner's two younger siblings woke up so early for that event. Me and my daughter woke up late as usual for we slept late also at night. We continued our morning with our everyday groove. Then, there's an event that almost depart my soul from my body. I went to our room for awhile to get something. I left my daughter at her favorite chair for she was watching movies. I was confident to left her for her father was in the kitchen. When I went back, my daughter was already missing on her chair. I asked my partner but he has no idea where our daughter is. I got worried and hurriedly went outside for our front door was open. When I got outside, I saw my daughter few steps away from the open gate. I quickly run to get her without anything under my sleeveless and see through blouse. Oh boy! I almost had a heart attack. I asked her why she went outside and she just said "nanay". Maybe she saw someone and mistakenly thought that it was her grandmother. At afternoon, my partner decided to clean our yard. The grasses grew fastly during the rainy days. He borrowed his father's bolo to cut the small stems of the burdocks. After pulling the grasses and vines, he planted the red bell pepper seeds which he set aside every after cooking. While me on the other hand, put my daughter to sleep for her noontime nap. It took me more than two hours before she fell asleep. I also took a quick nap and when I woke up, I helped my partner cleaning the yard. When our daughter woke up, she also helped us though she was just playing the pulled grasses. I just let her enjoy playing and roam around the yard. She has no one to play with since her cousins were already teenagers. After we finished cleaning, we ate a little snacks to pamper our hunger tummies. *Nakakagutom maglinis.* After taking our snacks we proceeded to our afternoon stroll routine. We hiked to our favorite spot which is the rice field. We stayed there for a few minutes and enjoyed the fresh air. My daughter enjoyed watching the carabaos and even waving her hands while saying hi. When the sky was getting dark, we decided to go home to prepare for our dinner. My partner asked me to watch the "Don't Look Up" movie. He got curious about this movie when the scientist rebellion got viral. So, he downloaded the said video early this morning. We will watch it this evening before we go to sleep. That's how our Easter Sunday went. We are still happy with our normal day. How about you? How's your day went? Come tell us. *insert Vice Ganda's voice*😅 Thank you for reading fellas. I really appreciate for sparing your time reading this work of mine. Till next time. God bless and keep safe all the time.

Not A Spicy Lover (This and That : Food Edition) **April 16, 2022 (Saturday)** Good day readcash citizens. How's your day today? My daughter and I woke up earlier than we used to because of the noise of the helicopter that roamed above our place. My partner told us that the said helicopter will land at the Mormon's Church which is just across our house. We immediately got off from our bed and hurriedly went outside. There, we saw police vehicles and soldiers guarding the church. Few moments later, the helicopter landed and we were so amazed. It was my first time watching an actual helicopter so close. I never thought that it is bigger that I used to see flying above. The helicopter unloaded boxes of relief good to be given to the residents of our town. A big thanks to our provincial officials for the goods. Anyways, so much for that. It's not my topic for today. My main dish is to join the food edition of the This and That prompt. I am kinda late for this but as they say, it's better late than never.Lol So, here I go... ****PIZZA OR PASTA**** -I like both. But if I have to choose between the two, I think I'll go for pasta. Pasta is seldomly serve in our table than pizza. We can have pizza whenever we want. We can have it anytime we crave. Unlike pasta, we can only have it if there's a celebration. I started to like pasta when I worked at Manila as a housemaid. My employer loved to cook lasagna and that was my first time eating those. When I ate it, oh my I couldn't help not to get another round of plates. After that, I always looking forward to have that food in the table. ****ICE CREAM OR CAKE**** -For this one, I'll choose ice cream. My partner's mother used to bake cakes and sell them. Everytime she cooked, she always left something for us in the house. Because of that, it's almost everyday we eat cakes. We seldomly have ice creams for my partner's mother is not fond of it. Also, during my short vacation on my parent's place, I discovered a new flavor of ice cream and I fell in love with the taste of it. Since then, I always look that flavor here in partner's place. In addition to that, ice cream os good during summer. It can help me quench the hotness of the weather. ****WAFFLES OR PANCAKES**** -This is a no brainer for me. Just like what most other writer's choice, pancakes for the win. Yeah!! Charizzzz. I love pancakes tyan waffle. Before when I was young, we used to watched a Sinulog competition during our town fiesta. My mother used to buy us waffle but I always give my share to my sister. It's not like a didn't like the taste of it. It's just I am not fond of eating it. Unlike pancakes, I can eat it all day. Actually, these past few days, I always cook pancakes here in our house for breakfast. My daughter and partner like it too. ****RICE OR NOODLES**** -Of course, it's rice for me. As a Filipino, rice should always present in our table every meal. Our meal will not be complete without rice. Sometimes, I can only eat rice even without viand. Of course it depends on the class or type of rice. ****VEGETABLES OR FRUIT**** -Fruit for me. I am picky when it comes to eating vegetables. When I was young, my parents were always mad at me during mealtime especially if there were vegetables in the table. I really don't like eating vegetables. There was one time, my cousin was so mad for I really didn't want to eat vegetables. I was the only one left in our table for she really want me to eat the veggies. I was already crying and asked her if I can stand but she was so furious. She punched my mouth with a bamboo that cut my upper lip. Blood dropped at my plate and mixed my food. When my mother saw me, she was so worried and helped me. My cousin had a good scold from my father. ****SPICY OR SWEET**** -I'm not a spicy lover person, thus, I choose sweet. I haven't tried the Samyang noodles challenge for I know I can't bare the spiceness of the food. My partner always asked me to try it but naah, never in a million years.hihi I am really thankful that we have this kind of prompt. It really save those who can't think of something to write. Thus, I think it's a wrap. Thank you so much for reading lasses. Till next time. Cheerybye!

Things I Miss During Holy Week **April 15, 2022 (Friday)** When I was young, celebrating Holy Week was very meaningful to me. I was always excited when it is approaching for it signifies vacation from school and we will enjoy the summer season. My family are Catholic and we have many superstitious beliefs during Holy Week. We always have some rituals that we're following because if not we will have good scold by our parents. When Holy Monday came, we were no longer allowed to play outside our house until Black Saturday. We will just be inside our house and will attend a prayer every 6 pm. Actually, we always have 6 pm prayers before. We can still do household works until Holy Wednesday but after that, when Maundy Thursday came, we can no longer clean our yard or even take a bath. We can no longer wash our clothes. We were not allowed to go to the forest or swim in the sea for they told us that animals during this time are very dangerous and venomous. Every Good Friday, we always watch the movie The Passion of the Christ. Before, we were the only one who had a television in the neighborhood. Thus, all our neighbors will gather at our house and watch the movie. Some children fell asleep for they got bored watching the movie. I guess they can't still understand what was the movie all about. I can still vividly remember that when 3 pm strikes, there were an earthquake occurred and the oldies would say that Jesus already died in the cross. I don't know if some of you experienced that. After that, we shared the most customary food during Holy week which we called"landang" or "binignit". Binignit is traditionally serve during Good Friday. It is a dish made with glutinous rice cooked in coconut milk with various slices of sabá bananas, taro, and sweet potato, among other ingredients. Oh, I am craving this right now but sad to say I have no knowledge on how to cook this. It was my mother who used to cook this dish for us. Late this afternoon, I witnessed the street procession here in my partner's place. Upon watching, I couldn't help but to reminisce those days when I was so active in participating in that kind of event. I remember before, every Good Friday, I love watching the Senakulo conducted by our neighbor barangay. They started the reenactment at our barangay up to our town. I was always amazed by that event because of their outfits that was depicted from Jews and the person who acted as Jesus. Sometimes, the person who acted as Jesus and carried the cross will let himself be crucified. I think that is their vow. When I was in Manila working as a housemaid, I experienced the so called Visita Iglesia. The Seven Churches Visitation is a Christian, especially Roman Catholic, Lenten tradition to visit seven churches on the evening of Maundy Thursday. There was one church that we visited the we experienced to carry a cross. That was my first time carrying a cross and I can say that it was not easy for it was so heavy. Nonetheless, it was a great experience for me. Celebrating Holy Week then and now is way different. The traditions and the beliefs are slowly evanesced as time passes by. My parents taught us that this time is the time for us to repent our sins yet I can see many people enjoying at the beach and even partying. It is off to my topic but let me share this photo to you. I captured this earlier today when we had a scroll with my daughter. I am just mesmerized by the view. After so many days of rain, we can finally see the magnificent color of the sky. That's it for today lasses. Thank you so much for sparing your time reading this write up of mine. Have a blessed Good Friday everyone.

If I Would (Writing Prompt) **April 13, 2022 (Wednesday)** Hello readcash citizens! How are all doing today? I hope everyone is safe and happy. Today, I packed my unused clothes, together with my daughter's, for I plan to donate it to the victims of the typhoon Agaton. I know this is just little but I know this is a big help to those victims who suffered from the wrath of the typhoon. I have read one of my former college classmates posts on social media that says that one of her friend who is in Baybay told her the victims of the landslides were in cold so they need clothes. She was asking donations to help them. Since I am far from her location, I asked my partner if there will be donation drives here in our place. He told me that he will bring it tomorrow to the gym where the donation drives situated. I wanted to donate more but I have no sufficient resources to do so. Donating clothes and including them in my prayers are the only thing that I do for them. So much for that. Today I decided to join a prompt that I have read from sis @Chelle18 . You save me today sis, thank you. ****What would you do if you didn't have to work for a living?**** -If I have this very beautiful chance or opportunity, I would fulfill one of my dreams which is to visit other countries. I would travel different places and to see the whole world. I would learn different cultures and meet different races. i would explore the different pleasant spots in the world. Oh, that would be an amazing experience. Of course, I would bring my family with me to share that good time. Treating my family is one of my dreams too. Thus, if I have this chance, I would fulfill two of my dreams. ****What would you do if you knew you were going to die tomorrow?**** -Dying early is one of the scariest thing to happen. I think no one wants to die young. But if I know that I am going to die tomorrow, I would spend my last day being at my family. I want my last day in this earth to be with the people I love. I would tell them how much I love them. I would tell them everything I feel. I want them to be the last memory I have before I close my eyes and bid goodbye to this human realm. ****What would you do if you could control your dreams?**** -If I can control my dreams, of course I will choose scenes that would make me happy. I won't let nightmares to interfere. I have share here that most of my dreams about calamities happened into reality. With that, I will control my dreams with beautiful scenario and hoping that it will also happen into reality. ****What would you say if the whole world will listen to you?**** - If the whole world will listen to me, I will focus my message on saving our Mother Earth. With what happened to our place, where many calamities happened, I can say that it is the results of the cruelness of the people to the nature. We people, who are just temporarily settlers in this planet, abused the nature. The nature that provides us with our needs. I will tell the people in whole world that it time for us to restore our planet. It is time for us to take care of our Mother Earth. Also, I would address to the world to always let love prevail in our heart. Because I believe that when there is love, people will always choose to do good to everyone and everything. ****What would you do if you could do anything illegal without getting arrested?**** -To this one, I think I will copy what Kisses Delavin, a Filipino actress, answered when she was asked to this question. I would also rob the money of the politicians and give it to someone who really needs it. We can't deny the fact that our country, Philippines, has many corrupt politicians. The money that are intended for the people are being placed in their own pockets. With that, if I can do this illegal thing without being arrested, I can help many people who are less fortunate. That's it for today guys. Thank you so much for reading. Till next time. **Previous Article** Tropical Depression Agaton's Catastrophe https://read.cash/@Yzza0625/tropical-depression-agatons-catastrophe-39ca2e09 Flaunting my amazing and generous sponsors. **Lead image is edited using Canva app.**

Tropical Depression Agaton's Catastrophe **April 12,** **2022** **(Tuesday)** The other day, I was enjoying the coldness of the weather. But now, I feel like my trauma during the havoc of super typhoon Odette came back. My nervousness and uneasiness took over as we were experiencing strong winds and heavy rains. Today, the tropical depression Agaton hit our province. Our place is under TCWS #2 (tropical cyclone wind signal # 2). Before, even if we were under this wind signal, we were not that bothered and worried for it was not that strong. But now, the wind is way stronger. The whooshing sound of the wind creeps me out. I can still remember during the past typhoon Odette that is why my nervousness attacked again. But I need to be strong for my daughter. My partner's mother is not here so we need to brave for our own sake. The electricity was out past 10 this morning. They say that our electricity line were cut due to the strapping wind. Here in our compound, we are all alarmed for we are afraid that we will be flooded again if the heavy rain continues. My partner was wet all day for he was busy freeing the water flow so it won't stuck and went inside our house. He cleared all the drainage and cleaned the areas where the waters may stuck. Me and my partner's sister, on the other hand, were busy cleaning inside the house for there were already amount of water went inside our house. We put some jars where there are leaking water from the roof. I just put my daughter on her favorite chair so she won't bother us. I'm glad that she was so behave. Maybe she was wondering what happened to her surroundings. Afternoon came. My partner's other sister hurriedly came into our house. She told us that we need to pack our things. We need to be ready for the water in the river that is located few distance from our house were already big. I hurriedly secured our things in high areas and they also secured theirs. I grabbed our backpack and prioritized the things of my daughter like her clothes, milk, diapers and bottles. I only put few clothes for me and my partner. I also secured all our necessary documents and wrapped it with plastics. Night came. We were so dark and the only light that we had was the flashlight from our phone. While having our dinner, the wind outside was still strong that it made a creepy sound as it slapped everything on its way along with the heavy rain. There were also lightning and thunder that made my daughter scared. Thus, I decided to let her watch a movie on our tablet to divert her attention. I am also scared of lightning and thunder for I had a traumatic experience with it. My partner's mother also monitored us. She was also worried for us. She told us to evacuate to the municipal hall for us to be safe. We brought our things first to the office where my partner's sister works, and we will go there if things got worst. My partner and I did not sleep the whole night for we were guarding the situation. The next morning, when the weather was better, we checked some places and this is what we saw. This is the Layog river that we monitored. The dike was already damaged and when the rain won't stop, it has a possibility that it will overflow to the houses, including ours. This is the rice field that we used to visit every afternoon. It is now looks like a sea. Good thing the rice grains were already harvested before the typhoon. During the day the storm ravages, the water overflowed the street that made the people trapped in their barangay. When the rain subsided, the water receded as well. I thanked the Almighty God that He kept us safe. But my heart is still broken because of what happened to our neighbor town where they were the most affected by this calamity. Until now there are still places that are experiencing landslides and floods. Let us pray for all the victims of this devastations. Thank you everyone for reading. Till next time.

Because of that, I am now enjoying the comfort of my blanket with a cup of coffee to ease the coldness of the weather. I thought we're gonna enjoy the summer by now for the Holy week is already few days from now, but I guess our summer feels will be delayed. Climate change. Today, the weather may not good but it didn't affect my mood. When I wake up this morning, I decided to prepare pancakes for our breakfast.*(feeling sosyalen yarnn)* Actually, it's been yesterday that I craved to eat pancakes so I bought a ready to cook pancake. I paired it with a hot cup of coffee and biscuits for my daughter loves to eat biscuits. After an hour and bathed my daughter, I felt like my body I wanted to dance. I missed dancing. Thus, I changed my outfit and looked for a zumba videos and exercise on my own inside our room. I feel so energized today and I am glad that I rendered 30 minutes exercise for today.Phew Good job self *pat at the back. Okay, so much for the introduction. Today, I decided to join a prompt initiated by sis @Usagi . Without further adieu, let the writing begin. Image source https://pin.it/6LO2gFc *****What kind of day did you have?**** -I have a great day today. Despite the cold weather outside, I am still feeling great. I had a good sleep last night and I don't have headaches today. I am also happy right now with my dearly loves with me, my daughter and partner. *****If you could change one thing about your behavior today, what would it be?**** -I think none. My behavior today is fine and good and I am happy. Not the same from the other days that I was not okay for I had trouble sleeping at night. Because of that, I always woke up with a heavy head and always in a bad mood. Today is different that is why I am having such a nice day. *****Did you accomplish what you wanted to today?**** -Yes, yes, yes. I am so proud of myself today. I am so glad that I able to accomplished what I wanted to do today. I peacefully accomplish my household chores, play with my daughter, able to exercise which I wanted to do eversince but I am always defeated by my laziness, bathed in the rain which I missed. This afternoon when my daughter was taking her nap, my partner asked his sister to look after our daughter so I can bath in the rain. He knows that I love bathing under the pouring rain. This is what we used to do when we were in college. *****What made you smile today and why?**** -Of course my little family. Everytime I see them happy, I am happy too. They are my source of happiness. Especially, when I see my daughter laugh and giggles, or call me mama and hug me, my heart is always in the cloud. Also, another thing that made me smile today is the rain. When I was enjoying the rain, it made me remember my childhood days when me and my siblings used to bath in the rain. *****What are five things you are grateful for?**** - I have made an article about the things that I am grateful.

How Do You Discipline Your Child? **April 08,2022 (Friday)** **What is discipline? How are you going to impose discipline to your house or to your children? What kind of parent are you?** *According to Mareng Merriam-Webster, discipline is a training to mold, correct, or perfects the mental faculties or moral character. It is a way of penalizing for the sake of enforcing obedience.* When I was young, my father has military way of imposing discipline in the house. He is a former military and he brought the discipline he had during his training. We were cautious in commiting mistakes for we know what would be our consequences. Here are some ways of how our father punish us if we did something that is not pleasing to him. **Sack Punishment** This is the most brutal punishment in the house. In this punishment, you are being put inside the sack. He then tie the opening and he will hang you in the tree. After that he will make fire and let the smoke go after you. I haven't tried this kind of punishment before. It was my sister and the oldest biological son of my father who experienced this kind of punishment. My sister was just lucky that I was there and was able to call for help, so she was not hanged. **Chain Punishment** I experienced this one. I was being chained inside the house for I did not listened to not to go to the floating cottage. As young as I am, I always love to go to the floating cottage for I can see different fish that made me amazed. I know that my father already forbade me to go there but sometimes I felt envious of my playmates who freely run back and forth in that cottage. That day, I thought that my father already left for work so I sneak out and went to the floating cottage. But then, I didn't notice that he went back to the house for he was being called by the nature. Then he saw me in the middle of the cottage and with a thundering voice, he called me. I was shaking already for I knew that I'll receive punishment because of what I did. When I got home, he grabbed me and chained me. I cried so hard for I was petrified. I was being freed when my mother came home from work. **Belt/Broom/Hanger Punishment** Who can relate to this one. This is the most common punishment of every parent before. Me and my sister tried this many times for we were so naughty when we were young. We always got into fights which is very natural of every kids. **Kneel on the Salt** I also tried this one. I still remember why I got this punishment. My sister and I did not listened when our mother told us not to play in the drainage. The drainage in our place is not the same in the drainage in city areas where the water is already black because of the wastes being thrown. Ours, in the province is clean especially after raining. So, that time it was raining and me and my playmates, including my sister, got enticed by the flowing water. We played there and got wet. Our father saw us and called us home. He was so furious that we didn't listen to our mother. He got a salt and spread it in front of the altar and instruct us to kneel on it. It was very painful but we deserved it for we were so hardheaded. We remained in that position for an hour. There are still a lot ways of how our parents discipline us. I just listed these four for these are unforgettable for me. Despite of these punishments that we experienced, I am still thankful that our parents corrected our disobedience. We grow as a good person not just in our family but also in our community. I got these topic when my cousin informed me that my sister slapped her son. I asked the reason why my sister did that and she told me that my sister was mad for her son talked her back when she scolded him. My cousin wants me to talk to my sister to not hurt her son. But I didn't confront her for I know that she is just disciplining her child. Thank you for reading this far guys. I appreciate it so much. Till next time.

Spooky Questions - Game! **April 06,2022 ( Wednesday)** Hola,hola readcash citizens! Happy Wednesday to all of you. How is your day going? We are now in the middle of weekdays and few more sleep, it's weekend again. I hope everyone is enjoying their day. Today, as I was browsing and trying to find a possible topic that I can write, I remember that I had saved a prompt from @Usagi (sorry for the tag sis and thank you for initiating this). It has been in my draft for three days so I think I should finish this one. If you want to join the prompt, you can find the questions here in this LINK. https://thoughtcatalog.com/holly-riordan/2017/10/50-spooky-questions-to-ask-your-friend-group-to-get-into-the-halloween-spirit/ **Do you have a hunch about the way that you will die?** -I think I do. I think I die because of an illness. Why I thought of that? I had a dream, it was pretty clear dream, that my cause of death is cancer. I am not sure if that would happen but we have histories of cancer in our family line. Of course, I will pray that it would be just a pure and plain dream. Nobody wants to have cancer. And also, I don't want to die early. I still have many dreams that I want to achieve. **Have you ever used an ouija board? What happened?** -Yes, I have. I was first year high school at that time. My classmates and I were at our room and we just finished taking our lunch. When suddenly one of my classmates suggested to play spirit of the glass. We didn't know that he has an ouija board and because of my curiosity, I joined. I didn't know how it played so I just went along with them. They had some chantings and I don't know what was that so I just observed them. Then they told me to close my eyes and call a spirit that I know. And as d*mb as I am, I called my deceased brother's name. I got scared when the glass started to move even there's no one holding it. I was petrified and run outside our. I regretted what I did and I got scared when they told me that we finish what we started. But I didn't went back inside. I felt like I disturbed my brother's soul. **Which horror movie scarred you for life?** -I really can't forget the movie that stopped me from watching horror movies. I used to love watching horror movies. I can watch alone even if it's midnight. But there was one time that I was watching Ginger Snap movie alone. It was already midnight and everybody in the house were already sleeping. I didn't know that my older sister went outside. I was seriously watching for the scene was already intense when she sneakily went at my back and shouted loudly. I was startled with fear that I cried. From then on, I stopped watching horror movies. **What is the spookiest ghost story that you have ever heard?** -There was a road accident happened across our house. The victim was a family who were on their way for the band of their daughter. The motorcycle that they were driving was being hit by a huge bus. Because of the strong impact, the family was flown away and died on the spot. The father's head cracked open and his brain scattered on the grass. The daughter's shoes flown at our door. My grandfather picked it up and put it beside the child's body. Night came, when they were sleeping, they heard a knock on the door. We have no electricity at that time so it was very dark. My grandfather got our lamp and opened the door but there was no one outside. Then he saw a lighting candle just a few distance from our house dancing. My grandfather got scared so he immediately closed and locked the door. **Would you rather get bitten by a vampire or bitten by a zombie?** -I think I would rather get bitten by a vampire. Vampires are beautiful and handsome in every movie that I have watched. So, maybe I'll become exquisitely beautiful if I get to be bitten by them.Lol **Are you afraid of clowns?** -No, but when I saw the movie IT, everytime I see a clown, I find it creepy already. **Have you ever had your tarot cards read?** -No, not yet. But I watched tarot card readings on Tiktok. That's it for today guys. Thank you so much for reading. Till next time. See you around.。◕‿◕。 Flexing my generous and amazing sponsors. **Lead image is edited using Canva app.**

Exasperated Tuesday **April 05,****2122** I woke up late this morning for I suffer a headache last night. I requested a soft massage of my head from my husband for I didn't want to drink paracetamol. I know that this headache I'm feeling is due to my insomnia. When I woke up at past seven and I asked my partner if he could feed our daughter for I was still sleepy. My head was still dodgy and I wanted to doze off again. He agreed and our daughter was awake already. So, I thought that he will feed her right away. But when I woke up past 9, I saw that our daughter was still lying and playing alone in our bed. I checked her milk bottle, it was still unused. I looked where my partner was, then I saw him busily using my phone. He was downloading a movie. I was mad at him for he prioritized the movie than feeding our daughter. I angrily got the bottle and prepare the milk myself. I ignored him while he was explaining himself. Then, he got also mad that I ignored him. Our ending, we both mad at each other. I didn't eat breakfast nor drinking coffee. I was seriously mad of what he did. He exchanged his responsibility to his daughter over a movie. His daughter was so hungry already yet he was busy on his phone. I cannot tolerate that. Since, he was also angry at me, we gave each other a silent treatment. I let him do the household chores while me and our daughter was just inside our room. When lunchtime came, he invited me to eat. But, I kept my silence and ignored him. Then, he told me to break the plates if I don't eat. What the? Is he threatening me? Well, that was effective though. I got myself up together with our daughter without a word and went to the table. We eat silently except for our daughter who has no idea what happened to us. When I was done, I immediately took my own plate and utensils and washed them right away. Yes, I did not include theirs.( Maldita talaga) I went back to our room and planned to sleep. The weather was so cold due to the non-stop rain, so it will be nice to sleep again. I fell asleep for two hours. When I woke up, I saw my daughter soundly sleeping beside me. I know that she felt that her mother is not okay. I felt my stomach grumbling for I only eat a little during lunch. I decided to buy 3n1 coffee and biscuits to fill my hungry tummy. When I went outside, I did not see my partner. But, I noticed that our washed clothes was already gone. He maybe folded it and put it in our drawers. I didn't bother to find him and went to the nearest store. Our daughter was still sleeping so I can leave her for a few minutes. The nearest store is only a walking distance so I'll be gone for a few minutes only. When I was on my way home, I saw my partner playing basketball at the Mormon's Church. I ignored him and went straight to our house. I know that he saw me for he was looking at the street. While sipping and enjoying my coffee paired with biscuits that I bought, my partner came home. Maybe his anger already gone, he approached me and said sorry. Since I don't want to end our day with having ill feelings to each other, I decided to reconcile for me not to have an exasperated mood all day this Tuesday. Now, we are fine and being back to our vivacious mood. AUTHOR'S THOUGHT In a relationship, having a little fight or misunderstanding with the partner is inevitable. It is part of the propinquity. What matters most is you know how to settle the problem. Also, learn to down the pride that you have for it will be the cause of igniting the problem. Toning down my pride was my problem before. But I learned that it will not give us any good in our relationship. Instead, it will ruin what we build. This is it for today guys. I wasn't able to read article this morning and afternoon for there were no electricity here in our place for almost a day. I couldn't connect to our WiFi if there's no electricity, the reason that I failed to visit here. But worry no more for the light is finally on. I'll read as much as I can tonight. Thank you for reading fellas. Till next time. Don't forget to always choose happiness.😊 God bless everyone. Be safe at all times.

My Monday Feels **April 04,** **2022** **(Monday)** Hello, hello readcash citizens. How are you all today? I hope everyone is having a great day. Yesterday, my partner's side's family invited us to come with them to the beach. We politely rejected the invitation for we were not ready and my partner was not in the mood to go out. The time they informed us about the getaway was a bit late and our daughter also was still sleeping and I didn't want to disturb her for she slept late last night. Nonetheless, my partner's siblings went with them so we were left in the house and the whole compound. So, our Sunday went like a normal day for us. When afternoon came, my partner and daughter went outside to take a stroll but they went back after a few minutes for our daughter felt bored. She has no one to play with since the Mormon's Church was closed. Thus, we took her for a ride which is her favorite part of the day. It is already our routine to ride our motorcycle and roam around the town every afternoon. It is one of our ways for our daughter to enjoy her day. Today, I feel stultify for I felt like I am being stuck and unproductive just like yesterday for I failed to write and publish here. I only read few articles and leave some comments and after that I can't find the drive to write one. I wanted to force myself to think of a topic yet still none. Until I had a minor headache for I was pushing myself to produce something. I went to my Facebook account hoping to find a possible topic but all I read is all about politics. That platform is indeed virulent already. Sometimes I only visit my account there to check if there will be memories to watch. Next, I went to TikTok and browsed and browsed and still I can't fine something interesting. I just find myself hungry from those foods that I saw on those videos. Good thing my partner ordered an ube lumpia with cheese from his former high school classmate last night. It filled my hungry tummy for it was delicious and I am very satisfied with it. I forgot to take a picture of it for I immediately dig in when it arrived.hihi When my daughter woke up from her noontime nap, I paused what I was doing and tend her for she always wants to be cuddled everything she woke up. She is just a sweet child. She loves being always kissed all over her face. I played with her for a couple of minutes and since there's no rain and the Mormon's Church was open, I let her play in the plaza together with other kids. When she was tired from running and playing, she led me home. I already know what she wants. She was hungry so I gave her milk to quench her thirst. When she was done, we had our afternoon routine which is joy ride just around the town. I took a few shots of the view of our favorite spot. The weather was kinda gloomy. Well, here in our place, we always have a gloomy weather. After 30 minutes of roaming around, we headed home for the rain was about to pour. And like a cue, right after we enter our house, the sky started to leak. And now, we are watching one of my daughter's favorite cartoon movie entitled "Littlefoot". My partner wanted to watch the news but our daughter is the boss in the house, so what she wants will be followed. Poor papa.😅 That it for today guys. I have to end here for I need to prepare our food for dinner. Thank you for reading. Till next time. P.S. (*parang letter lang eh)* I want to say thank you to sis @BCH_LOVER and mem @Marinov for renewing their sponsorship to me. Thank ng marami ninyo.😊 I declare more blessings to you and to your family. Also, more BCH to come us. God bless. Flexing my generous and amazing sponsors. **All photos above are mine and captured by me.** **Lead image is edited using Canva app.**

Farewell March, Hello April **April 02, 2022 (Saturday)** Good day readcash citizens! How's your weekend? Today, I am torn between to write or not for I am not feeling well as of this moment. I am still in pain because of my dysmenorrhea (hayyzzz hirap maging babae) but I wanted to be productive today, that is why here I am now typing on my phone. I have no good topic to share as well today, so I'll just write whatever comes to my mind. I'll just let my hand do its thing. We are now at the second day of the month of April. Time swiftly flies indeed. I have read several articles showcasing their achievements and failures on the previous month. Nonetheless, I can say that they are still productive for they still earn and learn from here-in this awesome platform. But how about me? How was my March by the way? It's been a couple of months that I did not make a monthly report for I was always disappointed of my performance here. I have not meet on most of my set goals. Yet, despite of that, I didn't let myself be drown on that disappointment. Actually, there was a month that I stopped writing here. It was the month of January. I only published one article on that month for I was lost on myself. I couldn't bring myself to be productive on that time for I was so down and full of disappointment in my life. But I am thankful that my eagerness to stay here came back. So, the next month of that, I was able to write again and finally pulled myself back on track here. Okay, so much for that. Today, I want to share to you how my month of March went. My Published Articles Last month, I was able to publish 18 articles. Not bad huh. Mostly, I can only published less than 18 articles. But on that month, I was able to surpass. As much as I wanted to write one article per day but there are some circumstances that hinders me from doing so. There was a week on previous month that I haven't published even one article for I was at my parents place. I was there, together with my little family, for almost a week. By that time, I couldn't visit here in this platform for there was no stable internet connection in my parent's place. Nevertheless, I was still happy on that one week for I was able to bond with my family especially with my sister. With that 18 published articles, I was able to earn $78.85 in total. I am still glad of my earnings for it helped me on some of my expenses - my daily expenses. I wanted to save it for I wanted to try to hold a 1BCH but I guess it will be hard for me to do that. I bet mothers like me can relate, right? But, I will never stop trying to achieve that goal. 1 Week Visit At My Parent's Place Previous month, me and my little family had a chance to visit at my parent's place. Actually, it was my sister's idea to let us visit for she wanted us to celebrate for her partner was home from Cebu. They had a problem and was almost decided to separate. Good thing they were able to reconcile again. I was happy for they were able to transcend one of the problems of their relationship. They are in a long distance relationship and we all know that in that kind of setup, there are many temptations. My sister's partner had a 1 week vacation leave on his work, thus we made the most of that time. We enjoyed swimming, having a road trips and food trips. We enjoyed the whole week bonding with the family. We had a good time in that very short period of time. With that, we decided to continue our fun this coming holy week for my sister's partner has a leave on his work again. Attended A Wedding I have shared here that we attended my partner's cousin's wedding. I made an article about that actually. I am happy that I was able to witnessed two individuals sealed their love on each other by getting married. I love that experience for I was able to learned something from the pastor who officiated their wedding. That's one of the reasons why I love to attend wedding ceremonies.hihi That's the highlights of my March month. My previous month was still colorful and fun. I have another memories to be stored on my memory lane. As I bid my farewell to the month of March, I am thankful that I was able to survive another month. Now, I want to welcome my month of April with much optimism. As much as I wanted to lists some goals for this month, I decided that I won't pressure myself. I'll just enjoy the flow and I look forward on what would be my achievements this time. Thank you for reading guys. Till next time. Have a blessed weekend everyone.😊 Flexing my generous and amazing sponsors. **Lead image is edited using Canva app.**

Huling Sayaw **Abril 01,** **2022** **( Biyernes )** "Mommy, pwede po ba akong sumama kina ate magdidisco sa kabilang barangay?" Magalang na tanong ni Eli sa kanyang ina na naghuhugas ng kanilang pinagkainan. Ngunit tulad ng inaasahan niya, hindi siya pinayagan nito. Si Eli ay kilala na anak ng isang matagumpay na mag-asawa sa isang barangay. Nag-iisa siyang anak na babae ng mayamang mag-asawa. Siya ay matalino, mabait at palakaibigan.  Kilala din siya sa larangan ng mga beauty contest. Nanalo na din siya sa isang panlalawigang patimpalak ng kagandahan na siyang dahilan para mas nagiging tanyag siya sa kanilang lungsod. Malapit si Eli sa kanyang mga pinsan na nasa ibabang sektor ng pamumuhay. Ngunit ayaw ng kanyang ina na makipaglapit siya sa mga ito. Nais ng kanyang ina na mas mangingibabaw siya sa lahat, kaya lagi niyang pinagbabawalan si Eli na sumama sa kanyang mga pinsan. Sa kadahilang iyon, laging tumatakas si Eli sa kanilang bahay tuwing gabi. Lingid sa kaalaman ng kanyang pamilya na lumalabas siya sa kanilang tahanan kapag tulog na ang mga ito. Noong nasa pang-apat na taon na si Eli sa sekondarya, nakilala niya ang isang binata na nagngangalang Mark. Nagkaroon sila ng relasyon ngunit iyon ay kanilang itinago sapagkat alam ni Eli na magagalit ang kanyang mga magulang. Naging maayos ang kanilang relasyon kahit ito ay patago lamang. Dumating ang araw na nakapagtapos si Eli ng sekondarya. Nakatanggap siya ng iba't - ibang parangal at siya ang nagiging Valedictorian sa kanilang klase. Nais ni Eli na kumuha ng isang kurso na hinindian ng kanyang mga magulang. Nais ng mga ito na magiging doktor siya. Walang ibang nagawa si Eli kundi ang sumunod sa kanilang gusto. Pinaaral siya ng kanyang mga magulang sa Cebu. Dahil naging malayo si Eli sa kanyang mga magulang, nagkaroon siya ng pagkakataon na maging malaya. Nagkikita sila ng kanyang nobyo sapagkat ito ay nag-aaral din sa Cebu. Naging malaya ang dalawa at ninamnam nila ang mga sandali na magkasama sila. Hanggang sumapit ang dalawang taon, nabuntis si Eli. Labis ang kanyang takot ngunit nilakasan niya ang kanyang loob na umamin sa kanyang mga magulang. Labis na nagalit ang kanyang ina sapagkat isang malaking kahihiyan ang dulot na pagbubuntis ni Eli. Walang problema si Eli sa kanyang ama dahil tinanggap nito ang kanyang pagkakamali. Ngunit ang kanyang ina ay lubos na nagalit at hindi matanggap ang kanyang sitwasyon. Pinatigil si Eli sa pag-aaral at pinagbawalan na makipagkita ulit sa kanyang nobyo. Subalit malakas ang loob ni Mark na panagutan si Eli kaya't pumunta siya sa bahay nina Eli para hingiin ang kamay nito. Ngunit nagmamataas at nagmamatigas ang ina ni Eli. Kinulong si Eli sa kanilang bahay at hindi pinapalabas. Dumating ang araw na nanganak si Eli. Niluwal niya ang mga malulusog na kambal na lalaki. Dahil may hinanakit pa rin ang ina ni Eli, dinala lang siya nito sa isang pampublikong hospital at inilabas kahit walang tamang check up. Hinayaan siya ng kanyang ina na mag-alaga sa dalawang kambal. Kaya kahit masakit pa ang kanyang tahi dahil C-section siya, pinilit niyang tumayo at mag-alaga sa kanyang anak. Dalawang araw pagkalipas ng kanyang panganganak ay biglang isinugod si Eli sa hospital. Nagkaroon ng komplikasyon ang kanyang panganganak. Nagkaroon din ng maraming tubig ang kanyang baga. Agad na dumating ang kanyang nobyo at sumugod sa hospital na kinaroruunan ni Eli. Nakita niya si Eli na nakihiga at agad niyang nilapitan ito. Tuwang-tuwa si Eli ng makita si Mark. Nag-usap sila ng biglang humingi si Eli ng isang pabor. "Bhe, pwede mo ba akong isayaw?" Pinagbigyan ni Mark ang hiling ng kanyang nobya. Dahan-dahan silang sumasayaw at sumasabay sa tugtug ng kanilang paboritong kanta gamit ang kanilang cellphone. Ilang minuto ang nakalipas ay unti-unting lumuluwag ang pagkakahawak ni Eli kay Mark. Labis na takot at hinagpis ang naramdaman ni Mark nang nakita niyang unti-unting pumipikit ang mata ni Eli. Sa huling sandali ay naipakita pa rin nilang dalawa ang kanilang pagmamahalan. Nawala man si Eli ay may iniwan naman siyang dalawang anghel. Labis ang pagdadalamhati ng kanyang ina at pagsisisi ngunit kahit ano pa man ang kanyang gawin ay di na niya maibalik ang kanyang anak. Sinisi niya si Mark sa mga nangyari. Kaya hanggang sa kasalukuyan ay di pinapakita ni Mark ang kambal. Walang nagawa si Mark kaya iniwan niya sa pangangalaga sa ina ni Eli ang kanilang anak. Nakikimusta na lang siya sa pamamagitan ng kanyang mga kaibigan na may koneksyon sa pamilya ni Eli. Ang kwentong ito ay hango sa totoong buhay ng aking pinsan. Iniba ko lang ang mga pangalan ng mga karakter at may ilang senaryo din akong iniba ng konti. Pumanaw ang aking pinsan ilang taon na ang nakalilipas, ngunit ang kanyang mga magagandang alaala noong kasama pa namin siya ay mananatiling buhay. Salamat po sa inyong lahat sa pagbasa ng aking mga gawa. Sana po ay may natutunan kayo sa kwento ng kanyang buhay. Hanggang sa susunod po ulit. Pagpalain nawa tayo ng Maykapal. Ikinagagalak kong ibahagi ang aking mga sponsor sa itaas. **Ang lead image ay ini-edit gamit ang Canva app.**

Recollecting My Firsts **March 31, 2022 ( Thursday )** Hello readcash citizens all over the globe! How is your last day of the month? Mine is not that good for I am not feeling well. I have a dysmenorrhea right now but that can't stop me from writing today. I just finished taking my rest after washing our curtains and having our lunch. The quick nap lessen my pain from dysmenorrhea that is why I opted to visit this platform and read some articles. I have read sis Chelle18's article just a few minutes ago and that gave me an idea what to write today. First Crush Crush is feeling of admiration towards a person. I first felt that feeling when I was in grade 6. *(Yes, ang aga ko po nagkacrush,hihi)* He was my classmate and a son of one of our teachers. He was also the heartthrob of the school. He was intelligent and a smart-looking boy. Most of the girls in the school admired him. Some even sent flowers and letters just to be noticed by him. At first, I didn't like him for he was naughty too. There was one time that I punched and slapped him out of anger. After what I had done, I was afraid that he might tell his mother, who was our TLE teacher. I was terrified that she might fail me in her subject but I was surprised that he didn't do it. After that incident, he became distant to me which I glad for. But fate was such so playful. There was an event in the school and we became partners. That was awkward for us to perform but we can't do anything because that was for our grades. Then, when we were practicing, his younger brother had a mistake and everybody were all laughing. I was laughing too but when I look at my side, he was there and he was smiling at me. That was strange for everything around us became slowly in motion and all I saw was his beautiful smile. I didn't know what I feel that moment. It seemed like all my hatred and unlikeliness for him suddenly gone because of that smile. That was also the time that I realized that he has a beautiful smile. That was also the time when my feelings for him started to grow. But, I didn't let anyone know about that even my friends. I didn't want to be teased. It only came out when he secretly write his name initial and mine with a heart in the middle. My seatmate saw it and shared it to all our classmates. They started to tease us even the teachers and his mother. *(Oh diba, di naman masyadong nakakahiya😅)* First Boyfriend I was second year high school when I answered my first boyfriend. And guess what? My first boyfriend was my first crush. Fated to love eh?Lol Though he studied at a private school and I was at the public, we can still see each other for our school is situated in their barangay. Every morning, I just walked to school and I can pass their house. Whenever I passed at their house, he was also waiting for a tricycle on his way to his school. Everytime we saw each other, we just smile and nod. Then one night, there was an event in our school and he attended for he was invited by his cousins who was also my classmates. That was the time he confessed his feelings for me. I didn't know what to answer because that was also my first time being courted. So, instead of saying yes, I answered "Basta yun na yun".haha After that, we assumed that we were together already or in a relationship set up. Since, I do not have phone that time and we can't communicate properly, he just sent me his messages thru his cousins. While me as new to that thing, I didn't reply his messages. Whenever there were parties or events again in our school, he attended and that was the time that we can talk to each other. But our relationship lasted for six months only. I found out that he has another girlfriend. My classmate who was a friend also of his other girl informed me about their relationship. After that, I stopped seeing him and just sent my breakup letter. First Heartbreak My breakup with my first boyfriend did not affect me that much. Maybe that was because we were not serious or I was not serious with our relationship. The breakup that really shattered my heart was my breakup with my third ex, who was my long time boyfriend. I already shared here why we broke up after the 8 years of being together. I was totally devastated for I believe that he was the one that I can be with for the rest of my life. I built many dreams for us together but that it was all shattered in just a single snap. It really crushed me down for I fought hard for that relationship to stay that long. I had cried rivers of tears because of him and even let passed beautiful opportunities because of always choosing him. I thought that we were already strong enough to face more challenges in our relationship but I was wrong. They are right. The length of the relationship will not give you a guarantee to be with that person forever. CLOSING THOUGHT People come and go in our lives. But what's important are the lessons we learned from them. Those past relationships or failed relationships that we had are not mistakes, rather a learning experience or something that we can learn about ourselves. I may had some bad endings with them, but I am thankful of the memories and lessons that are learned for I can use it for my future relationship. This is it for today guys. Thank you for reading. Till next time. I appreciate you all.🥰 Flexing my generous and amazing sponsors. **Lead image is edited using Canva app.**

He Is Now Fully Vaccinated **March 30, 2022 ( Wednesday )** Hola readcash people. Time flies so fast. We are already in the second to the last day of the month. We are almost at the end of the first quarter of the year. Here in our place, I can say that summer is already here. I already hear the sound of the gangis or cricket insect. I remember my parents whenever they hear the crickets, they would say "Oy ting-init napud" ( Oy, it's summer again). I thought of taking out my summer outfits in my mahiwagang baul (magical box) but I remember, none of them fit me anymore.Lol My partner woke up so early this morning. While me, I woke up late. I slept so late last night because of the power interruptions. Because of that, I had a hard time sleeping for I feel like I can't breathe if there were no light in the room. The electricity came back already past midnight and that was the time I fell asleep. My partner was the one who perform the morning chores. He said that he will go to the RHU (Rural Health Unit) for his second dose. (I'm happy that I convinced him to be vaccinated) I forgot that today was his schedule for his second dose.*(sign of aging yarnn te)* I let him eat his breakfast so he can have energy before the inoculation. I was afraid that he might be nervous again just like what happened to his first dose. I also told him to buy Royal (soft drink) in case he feel nervous. That drink can help him everytime he is nervous. He told me that he will go their at 10 in the morning. When we were having our breakfast, there came a turon (Banana Lumpia with Caramel) vendor outside our house. I asked my partner if we could buy for I longed to eat that kind of food, but he seemed not to hear me. But what he did was he said the vendor that we won't buy. I was like what? I hurriedly went to our bedroom to get some money but when I went outside, the turon vendor was already long gone. I was so sad for I wanted to those paired with my hot coffee. I asked him why he said no to the vendor and he said that he misheard what I said. I almost cry but I I just understand him. Maybe he preoccupied at that time because of his vaccination. 9:00 o'clock in the morning, the staff in the RHU called to remind him that this day is his schedule for second dose. I was the one who answered the call for my partner used my number because he did not memorize his own number. I just told the staff that he will be there at 10. 10 minutes before 10, he went to the RHU. Me, I bathed our daughter and feed her her snacks. I also cleaned out bedroom and the living room. Then I remember that last day, my partner and his friends were drinking alcohol outside our house and there were plastics of junk foods left. My partner forgot to clean it so I decided to clean them. After less than an hour, my partner came home. I asked him how was he feeling and he said he was fine. I was glad what I hear. But he asked me to buy paracetamol in case he has a fever. So, I bought him Biogesic and Bioflu. I let him rest but after awhile, he rose from the bed and went to the kitchen. I told him that I will be the one to cook out lunch but he insisted. Thus, I let him. He cooked sotanghon soup with chicken and chicken adobo. After enjoying our lunch, we took a nap. The weather was hot outside that made me want to not to sleep. But, my eyes wanted to shut so I took a quick nap. When I woke up, I read some articles here and decided to write this one. As of this moment of writing, my partner and our daughter is on our favorite spot every afternoon, the Mormon's plaza. My partner can't play basketball today so he is the one who accompany our daughter. While me, I'm at our house typing this blog of mine and after this, I will take a bath for I feel so hot already. (*Sana di lang feeling hot, looking hot din.)hahaha charooot lang.* So, I think I'll end this here. I have to go shower to refresh my self. I'll be back and interact with you when I'm done. Thank you for reading. Till the next blog. Flexing my generous and amazing sponsors. **Lead image is edited using Canva app.**

My First Job Experience **March 29,** **2022** **( Tuesday )** Hello, hello readcash citizens all over the world. How is your day going? I hope everyone is happy and productive this day. Just this morning, I have read sis @Chelle18 's article about her husband who got scammed by his recruiter. After reading, I remember my first job experience. It happened similarly like her husband's experienced. Today, I will share again another life experiences of mine hoping that it can give lessons to my readers or maybe some of you can also relate to this one. After I graduated high school, I really wanted to pursue college. I was envious of some of my classmates who were sharing where they would study or what university they would enroll. Every time they would ask me if I will continue my college education, I just give them a-not-sure answer. I was really not certain about my life after my high school life phase ended. My mother told me that I should work as a housemaid because that's the most common job for a high school graduate only. In the back of my mind, I told myself that I won't be like that. I want to finish college and have a degree. But how can I do that? My parents (considered parents) cannot support me because we belong in an less fortunate class of living. My father was a trisikad driver or pedicab driver while my mother was an on call laundry woman in one of our neighbors. My biological father, on the other hand, told me that he can't also send me to college because his wife's daughter was also studying at that time. Yes, he prioritizes his not own child. Also, he wanted my brother to study college first. He reasoned out that my brother is a man and he would be the one to support his family. I begged him but it was no use. Month of May came. Two months after our graduation. My cousin's high school classmate which is her close friend too, visited our home. One of the reasons why she visited was because she asked my cousin's help to find someone who wants to work. They had a store in Tacloban City and they are looking for a saleslady. Without second thought, I volunteer myself. Being a saleslady is way better than a housemaid for me. (that's what I thought) I was so thin before and I was thinking that if I'm going to be a housemaid, I don't know if I can be able to survive all the house works. Not like being a saleslady, the work will be just light and easy. So, I told my cousin that I am willing to work. My cousin's classmate accepted me and she told me that I will go there in Tacloban together with her two recruits which were also from their barangay. Good thing that I knew those two because we came from the same school. They were just ahead of me for two years. The day came that the three of us went to our workplace. One of our companion already knew the exact address since he was able to go there once. I was expecting that it would be a big store since the owner was looking for three employees. But when we came there, I was so disappointed for the store was just way far from what I imagined. It was store that sells pirated movies, porn cd's or DVD's and other things. I was also confused because when we came there, they already have 2 saleslady working. The store was not big so why would they need more workers? My cousin's classmate welcomed us and introduced us to her husband, who was a Belgian and the owner of the store. After the introduction, my two companions were left at the store while me, I was brought to their apartment. My cousin's classmate instructed me about what would be my real work. She told me that I will not work at the store instead I will be the one who will accompany her husband wherever he goes for the reason that she will leave to Manila to take care their other business there. I was disheartened of what I heard. She told my cousin that I will work at their store but why am I here? I had no choice so I just followed. The next morning, the wife flew to Manila, so me and the Belgian left in the house. I had a sense that the Belgian is not a good person but I just shoved it off. My first day was fine. We went to the store and brought the workers some viand and snacks. The next day, the Belgian told me that I should not lock my bedroom door at night. I asked him why but he didn't answer. I was already afraid of what might happen to me. If he will do crazy ideas, I can't fight him for he was so big and I was just a tiny girl. I did not sleep until morning that night. Again, we visited at their store. Then, I heard one of the old employee and the Belgian having a dirty talks. After that, the Belgian told me that I will sleep in the store that night. Judy, the old employee, stayed the night with him in their apartment. I had learned that they had a secret relationship. Weeks after, there came another three recruit employees. Two of them were my sister and childhood friend. They were also being promised to work in the store. But when they came there, they were told that they were being referred to the friend of the Belgian. They did not accept what the Belgian told them. The Belgian got angry. He said that Filipinos are picky when it comes to work. He fired them even though they weren't started yet. I decided to quit also. I did not like my work. There were no enough food and water. If we took our bath, we have to fetch water on the deep well and I already have itches on my body because the water were not clean. I went home, together with my sister and childhood friend on that very day. Though it was almost dark already, we opted to get out of that place. That was not a good experience of us. That was also our first time to travel far and we are not familiar with the place too. We reached at Maasin midnight, so there were no available vehicle headed to our town. Because of that, we slept at the terminal and waited for the first trip. Life was never easy for me. My first job experience was not good but it didn't stopped me to find another one. After that experience, I went to Cebu to find my luck. I put aside my dream to finish college for the meantime. But I promised myself that if I have a chance to study, I will do my best to achieve that dream. And here I am now. I finally got my diploma and fulfilled my dream. To you, who are reading this, never stop dreaming. Time will come that there will be a door that will open for you. Never quit and surrender your dream. Success is sweet when it comes from hardwork and perseverance. Thank you for taking time to read this blog of mine. Till next time guys. Before I end this, I want to say thank to my new sponsor @foryoubtc09 . Thank you for trusting me. I'm happy to see your name on my sponsor's list. I declare abundance of life for you.

We Witnessed Their Wedding **March 27, 2022 ( Sunday )** Hola readcash citizens! How are you all doing this very beautiful day? I hope everyone is happy and healthy in your dwelling place. Yesterday, I was not able to write for I was exhausted because of different causes. Since yesterday was Saturday, it was my schedule for cleaning the house day. Though not that much cleaning but household chores is such a tiring work especially that I have a daughter to look after. I guess that's already my life as a mother. In addition, we were also invited for the wedding ceremony of one of my partner's cousin which is also my daughter's godfather. That is also the major reason why I wasn't able to write something. So, today, I'm gonna share to you our event yesterday. 1:00 o'clock in the afternoon, my partner and I, together with our daughter, prepared ourselves to attend the big day of his cousin. The event will start at 2 p.m so I want us to arrive at the venue quarter the scheduled time. But my partner is like a girl when it comes to the beautification of himself. It took him 30 minutes to take a bath and change his outfit. While me, I can take a bath for just 10 minutes if I want to. I was already done preparing myself and our daughter while he was still busy how to style his hair. I was already nagging at him for I was worried that we were going to be late for the ceremony. It would be embarrassing for us for we were just near on the occasion place. The wedding was held at the municipal gym which is just a walking distance from our house. After how many years of waiting, finally he was done. We opted to use our motorcycle so we can arrive at the venue immediately. When we arrived at the gym, there were already lots of people inside. The venue was organized into two sides - the bride's side and the groom's side. We were led to where our sits located which is the groom's side. I love their decorations for it was filled with flowers and the chandelier at the center added the beauty of the venue. My partner saw his friends and they had a little chitchat while me, I was just on the our table with our daughter and also busy capturing views. Of course my favorite subject is my daughter, but I had a hard time in capturing a nice photo of her because she didn't like being taken a picture. So, I just look for another subject instead and I was just glad that she was behave inside the venue. Let me share to you what I had captured yesterday's event. The photo above is the entrance of the venue. There was someone assigned in that area for the disinfection and they will led you to your table area. This is the view of the inside. I couldn't get a full view of the venue for I was also busy with my daughter. She felt hot for there were no ventilator near our table. I also forgot to bring a fan so I only used my handkerchief. The groom with a beautiful smile together with his best man which is also his brother. The bride slowly walking toward his future husband. I really love her gown and her long veil. She undoubtedly looked beautiful on her very especial day. While looking at her, I was also thinking. What would it feels like to be on the aisle, wearing a very elegant dress, walking slowly, all eyes on you, and most importantly the man of your dream is there near the altar looking at you with a beautiful smile waiting for you to come. (charingghh LOL) The photo above is an eleven years old from Davao City. She is a relative of the bride. She sang the song "Can't Help Falling In love" with the version of Crazy Rich Asian movie. All of us were awed with her performance. She really have an angelic voice. She gave justice of the song even if she is just so young. I hope all can sing beautifully.😁 The newlyweds first dance. They really are sweet and you can really see in their faces how happy they are in their most especially day. To have a beautiful and successful wedding is what every girl's dream. To be legally with someone you dearly love is one of the highlights of our life. Being married is a lifetime commitment with your partner. It has many obstacles, struggles and temptations that would test and shake your relationship but if the love you have to your better half is way more stronger than those, your relationship will not be crumpled. This is what I have learned from the pastor who officiated the wedding. We did not finish the whole program of the wedding for our daughter was already uneasy and wanted to go home already. Thus, we exited ourselves after the wedding dance and went home. This is it for today guys. Thank you for reading. Till next time. God bless and be safe all the time. P.S I want to say thank pala to sis @Bloghound for still supporting me by renewing her sponsorship. Thank you ng marami sis. More blessings to come to you and to your family.😊 Flaunting my amazing and generous sponsors. **All photos above were captured by yours truly.** **Lead image is edited using Canva app.**

My JS Prom Experience **March 25,** **2022** Hello readcash citizens! Happy Friday to all of you. When I was still a student, this day is my favorite day. Why? Because there will be no class the next day. lol Few days ago, while watching my favorite noontime show which is It's Showtime of Kapamilya Channel, their theme of that day was about 80's prom outfits. Vice Ganda and Vhong Navarro was their prom queen and prom king. While watching that segment, I was also being brought to my memory during my high school days when I experienced my one of most unforgettable moments in high school - my JS Prom experience. *In the Philippines, proms are popular in high schools. Prom usually takes place in the junior and senior years of high school, normally around February or March. Proms are commonly known as JS prom, or, junior-senior prom. -Wikipedia-* As stated above, JS prom is a well-known event during high school. It is one of the most anticipated event in every high school students - the senior and junior students. It is an event filled with fashionable elegance and glamour. It is the night when the students can wear their exquisite dresses and tuxedos and looked beautifully. But in our time, JS prom can only happens in every once in two years. Our batch was very lucky to experience that once in a lifetime experience. I was third year high school at that time when I had that beautiful memory. Since I was a third year student, I was paired with a fourth year student also. Before the program started, we were gathered at our classroom and the embarrassing moment happened to me. I wore a pink - glittery long gown that night. In order for us to reach our classroom, we need to skip a little for there was a drainage before our room. As I was about to cross the drainage, I forgot to lift my long gown. And because of that I fell and kneeled down on the floor. I looked around and checked the surrounding if there could be someone who saw my clumsiness. Unfortunately, my boy close friend saw what happened. He helped me to stand up and cleaned my gown who had a little mud. I thanked him for helping me. I was so embarrassed but he told me that he won't tell anybody. That would be our little secret.haha Isn't he sweet?charing I was the master of the ceremony or host of that event. Actually, I had a partner and he was a senior. When our processional march started, the rain fell. My partner hurriedly looked for an umbrella for us to have a cover from the pejorative rain. While I was waiting for my partner, my partner in emcee told me that our teacher said that he will be my partner for us not to have a difficulty in hosting. So, we had no choice but to exchanged partner's. My partner was n hosting was very tall and handsome. Good thing, I wore two and a half inches high heels so I caught up a little on his height. The night was so magical for me because of the decorations. Our stage looked so fabulous so when you reached at the center with your partner, you will feel like you're in a magical world because of the lightings and flowers. It would be perfect if your partner is your boyfriend or girlfriend. One of the parts of the program that I loved was the reading of the class prophecies. Some of my classmates were prophesied that they will become a teacher, an engineer, a priest and etc. Me, I was prophesied to become like Bianca Gonzales or Toni Gonzaga. I would become like them - a successful host in a reality show. Now, with my status today, that prophecy will not happen.haha Nonetheless, some of the prophecies came true. Just like my classmate who became a priest.hihi After the program, we enjoyed our food. The food was delicious and our payment was worth it. After a few minutes, we hit the dance floor. Our JS prom was held at our school only so we danced the disco at our plaza. Though there was a little rain outside, we still enjoyed our night. That night, I received a love letter, flowers and a gift - a necklace. That came from my suitor whom I didn't like for he was too old for me. The next morning, I returned all that he gave to me. Yeah, I was so mean that time. Ahh it feels so good to recollect some of our experiences, right? I can't help myself from smiling while writing this one. How about you? What is your memories during your prom? You can share it to us if you like.😊 Thank you for reading beautiful souls. Till next time. Be safe always and don't forget to choose to be happy.

The Best Journey I Had Taken **March 23,** **2022** **(Wednesday)** Bonjour à tous! It's hello everyone in French. Happy Wednesday readcash citizens. How is your Mecredi? Me, I'm kinda not feeling well. I feel like I'm going to have a cough. My throat is sore. Maybe this is because of the weather. The weather here in our place is like a girl. Always changing minds.hihi Now, it's hot, the minute after it rains. My partner who's trying to dry the new harvested grains was pissed because of the changing weather. So much for that. Yesterday, I have read Kapitana's article about her pregnancy journey. And as usual, I can't think of something to write today, so I decided to use that topic too. I am glad that there are prompts like this because it helps us to think what to write and save our day. https://read.cash/@MrsPepper27/my-pregnancy-journey-0a7c2c47 So, without further adieu, let's start. **Normal Delivery or CS?** -I had a normal delivery. **Father in the Room?** -No. I was alone in the delivery room. My partner was not allowed to enter in the room where I was. I don't know why, they didn't let him in. So, he just waited outside while I was enduring the pain. **Due Date?** -For how many times we went to my OB-GYNE for my monthly check-up or prenatal check up, she only said the month of my due date but not the exact date. Not like my cousin that she knew when is her due date. My OB told me that my due date would be October. But the month of October came to an end but my baby still didn't came out. I got really worried at that time. **Birth Date?** -My daughter came out to this world on November, two years ago. When the month of October ended, I went to my OB's clinic to have a check-up. I was already worried that I may had an overdue. But my OB  told me that if I won't give birth at that week, she will induce me. **Morning Sickness?** -My morning sickness started when I was three months pregnant. I still remember the day when I vomited a lot after I ate balut.haha That time, my partner and I was hiding about my pregnancy for the reason that I was a graduating student. So, everytime my morning sickness strikes, I tried to hide so no one can notice me, even my roommates. **Cravings?** -I can't think of something or specific food that I craved when I was pregnant. What I remember was that every afternoon, I always asked my boyfriend a snack because I was always starving. **Gender of the Baby?** -Many people said that I will give birth a baby girl because I was blooming during my pregnancy. In fact, I received an award during our ringhop even though I was already four months pregnant at that time. There were only few who knew about it. Moreover, before I knew the gender of my baby, I was always had a dream of a baby girl. And it's a baby girl indeed. **Place of Birth?** -I gave birth at a public hospital. At first we went to a private hospital but my OB is not a resident in there. I had no idea also that I could get another doctor if I wanted to. So, even if I was already in pain we headed to the public hospital where my OB is. **Hours of Labor?** -I had 8 or 9 hours of labor. Night before I gave birth, my partner and I were watching a movie. That time, I already feel pain in my tummy but I didn't mind it for it faded after. But when we were about to sleep, I noticed that the lapses of the pain is only minutes. Then, I was sure that it was it. **Weight?** -My daughter was only 2.49 kgs. only. She was very tiny. Maybe because I had an intense diet when I was pregnant. I was only following what my doctor said. But, she didn't gave me a hard time in delivering her because of her size. **Baby's Name?** -My baby has a three names - Ma. Fredyzza Nathalia. Ma. came from Maria (Mama Mary). I am a devotee of Mama Mary ever since. On my pregnancy journey, I was always praying that I could have a safe delivery. Fredyzza is a combination of my name and my partner. And last, Nathalia is a recommendation name of my sister. Also, me and my partner is a fan of Ranz and Niana, a YouTube vloggers. They have a younger sibling whose name is Natalia and I was so fond of her. I love everytime I watched her dance with her older siblings.hihi Motherhood is the greatest gift bestowed upon woman by nature. It affiliates an eminent responsibility too. Being a mother is never an easy job. Nonetheless, it is the most promising duty to us women. My pregnancy journey was not easy too. I encountered many problems - mentally and emotionally. But I am happy that I surpassed those problems and was able to deliver my child safely. Thank you for reading this far guys. Thank you for always supporting me. Till next time. God bless.

Happy Stage Of My Life ( Never Have I Ever: High School Edition) **March 22, 2022 ( Tuesday)** 🎶🎶*High school life, oh, my high school life* *Every memory, kay ganda* *High school days, oh, my high school days* *Are exciting, kay saya 🎶* **-High School Life by Sharon Cuneta-** Are you familiar with this song? I bet every Filipino writer here does. Why am I singing this one? Well, I think it's pretty clear what would be my topic for today. I have read @Pachuchay's article about this beautiful prompt which was also initiated by one of the amazing writer here in this platform. And as one of those people who loves recollecting their memories, I decided to join this prompt - The Never Have I Ever: High School Edition. https://read.cash/@Pachuchay/never-have-i-ever-my-highschool-edition-31edbb88 High school experiences is one of the most beautiful memories that we can reminisce. For me, it is one of the most memorable stages of my life. Moreover, this stage of life is the transforming phase of everyone. This is also the stage where we have our first crush, first love and even our first heartbreak. Everything in this period is as colorful as a rainbow. Though not all of us has a happy memories during our high school days. Okay, so much for that. Let's start reminiscing my high school days. **Gone on a field trip** Yes, I have. When I was in second year high school, our Biology class conducted a field-marine trip. That was a very memorable experience for us. Aside from the learning that we got, we also had one incident that made our trip unforgettable. We almost had an accident. That was when we were heading home. We were from our last stop which was a beach. The road there was not cemented and it was also steep. It was also raining at that time. I was assigned to ride at the last bus. When our bus started to travel the steep part of the road, it suddenly stopped at the middle and run backwards. We were all shouting out of fear. Good thing, our driver did not panicked and was able to keep us safe. I didn't share that experience to my parents cause I know for sure that they won't permit me again whenever there will be another trip. **Skipped A Class** Oh my! I'm a veteran on this.Lol Yes, I have experienced skipping classes multiple times. I started skipping classes when I was in my third year. I was being influenced by my good classmates. Though that year, I only skipped seldomly because I was afraid being caught and be reprimanded by my parents. But when I was in fourth year high, I can say that I was brave already at that time.haha I remember, there was one time that we were all called out at the principal's office. The reason? All of us in our section did not attend in our class half day. Where were we? We went at our classmates place and had a food trip.haha (Ang babait namin di ba?) There were also times that we won't attend our first subject in the afternoon because we opted to watch "Will Of Fortune" - a noontime show. **Make Fake Excuses For Being Late** As far as I remember, I haven't tried being late when I was in high school. In fact, I was always being assigned to bring the key in our room. Yes, I was punctual at that time. Not the same during my college days. I was late countless times.haha **Hit Someone Hard** No, I haven't. But when I was in elementary, I had punched my male classmate. Actually, it was punch and slap. And guess what? That male classmate of mine became my first boyfriend.haha **Had A Crush On Someone In My Class** Naahh, never. I never had a crush in one of my classmates. My crushes were from different sections or year. It would be awkward if you are being called by your teacher and you answer incorrectly and your crush is looking at you.haha That would be embarrassing. Hello, hello readcash community. *Como estas todos!* (How are you all in Spanish) I really had fun participating this prompt. In fact, I always smile everytime I remember something funny or silly experience that I had. Thank you to the one who initiated this prompt. Thank you also everyone for reading. Keep safe guys and I declare happiness to all of you. Till next time.😊 Flexing my generous and amazing sponsors. **Lead image is edited using Canva app.**

My Most Horrible Night Experience March 21, 2022 This month is the third month when typhoon Odette spread its havoc in our country. There are still many places that are still struggling to recover from that calamity. There are still places that have no electricity and no stable internet connection. Yet, people are doing their best to cope up with their situation and tried to move on with their lives. As I try to remember that unforgettable occurrence, it brought me back to that night when that typhoon happened. The typhoon started to show its wrath afternoon on that day. We are in our house trying to assess how strong the storm was. At first, it was bearable since the wind and rain was not yet at its full capacity. But when 4 or 5 in the afternoon came, it finally show its outrageous force. We already hear the sound of the wind and the rain poured heavily. The electricity went out maybe because there were already light posts fell. We get out our candles so we can have light inside the house. When 7 in the evening came, the storm were slowly fade out. We were having our dinner at that moment. We thought that our fright will already end and we will sleep that night in peace. But then suddenly, my partner noticed that there was water flowed inside our house. We hurriedly finished our dinner and thought of cleaning the floor. But the water went up fastly that we didn't save some of our things that were being placed on our floor. We got panicked for the water already reached inside our bedroom. My partner hurriedly put our drawers in our bed and our other important things. While me, I hurriedly carry my daughter and went to my partner's grandmother's house. But when I got outside the water was already below my waist. The current of the water was a bit strong and I was wearing a pajama that a made me difficult to cross on the water. I was struggling because there were coconuts and branches that blocked my way. I was already nervous but I firmed myself for I was thinking of my baby that I carried. There was still a little rain pouring so I tried to cover my daughter's head. When I reached at my partner's grandmother's house, they were also flooded but they already at their second floor. I saw sofa and other things float away from their houses. When I reached at the second floor, I hurriedly went to one of their rooms and I saw my partner's aunt with her two month old baby. My partner's grandmother was also there too. The flood continued rising and I was very worried for my partner. I gave my daughter to her great grandmother for I want to help my partner. I also wanted to secure our documents that is why I headed back to our house. The current was still strong but I kept myself strong too. When I got inside our bedroom, I hurriedly change short shorts for me to move freely from the water. I secured all our important documents like my daughter's birth certificate, mine and my partner's school documents. I put it in a bag and I also secure my daughter's milk and few clothes. I went back at my partner's grandmother's house. Few minutes later, a vehicle of police officers came. They rescued us. I gave my daughter first and went back at the house to get grandma. But she refused to come with us. No matter how we tried to convince her to come with us, she stayed. She was so sure that the flood won't reach at the second floor. My partner's uncle also decided to stay with grandma. My partner's older sister secured her dogs. The police officers brought us to the municipal hall. When we came there, we saw other evacuees too. We went at my partner's sister's office. We stayed there. When the rain finally fully stopped, it was already past midnight, my partner went back at our house to get something. When he came, he saw that the water already subside. The other evacuees started to went back to their respective houses. Thus, we decided to went home also. When we got home, this was what the sight that welcomed us. We started to clean our bedroom so we can have a place to sleep. Actually, it was my partner who cleaned for I was holding our baby the whole time. I can't put her down for the reason that the floor was filled with mud and dirt. After several minutes, he was done a light cleaning. We opted to rest and just continue cleaning in the morning. We were all exhausted so we took a rest. Morning came, this was the view we saw. Yes, we had a very intense cleaning that day. The mud were so thick. It took us three days to completely clean the entire house. That typhoon Odette was the scariest typhoon I ever experienced. That was the first time I experience descending into the flood. That was a very unforgettable and traumatic experience for me. My partner's mother also said that that was the first time they ever experienced in their place. It was horrible. I pray that it won't happen again in the future. Hello readcash community. Happy Monday everyone. A new week started, a new day to grind. Hope everyone will be having a happy and productive week. Stay safe and God bless all of you.
