Working in the food industry (part 3) Before anything else I want to greet all of you a Prosperous New Year! May this year bring a lot of BCH in our wallet and a COVID free world. Happy 2021! My first article for this year is a continuation of my experiences in Working in the food industry. This is my 26th article since I joined almost a month ago and I thank you all for taking time to read my articles. As of typing this, I don't know what reactions or comments I would…

Working in the food industry (part 4) Whoa! I didn't expect that my article about Working in the food industry would come to part 4. I'm not sure up to how long will I be talking about this is I still have some thoughts in my mind. Have you read the first 3 articles for this topic? In case you haven't yet, the first part was some of the positions that I had while working in the food industry and some of my roles, duties and responsibilities. Second part was about customer…
Working in the food industry (part 5) And then there are the guests who wouldn't listen to the server when he or she is repeating their orders. Or guests who keep on asking about the menu especially if they are a big group but would end up ordering the one that they didn't asked about. There are also guests who would just stare at the food while it is being placed on their table. There are also guests who would keep on calling you even if they already saw that the staffs are…
General cleaning In my Declutter article I have mentioned that I will start to clean up some things in our house but sadly I wasn't able to do it before new year. Though I am proud to say that I have already started decluttering yesterday. https://read.cash/@bbyblacksheep/declutter-14c32a9e I started with my dresser while my mom was in charge of some stuffs under my bed and our helper was the one who vacuums the entire room, sweeps the floor and wipe the walls. Even if it…
Happy 1st Yesterday was my Youtube channel's first year anniversary! I think it was also my first month here on read.cash. Even if I wasn't able to meet the requirements for Youtube's monetization, I am still happy because I made it! Although there were months that I haven't uploaded anything, still I am happy that I was able to pull it off. https://youtube.com/c/TheFoodistDiary Currently I haven't made anything yet for my channel but I have one video that is up for editing.…
Monthly visits My topic for today may only be fitting for a girl like me because I am going to share my experiences with regards to my monthly visits, monthly period, mentration or whatever they want to call it. When did you first had your menstration? I cannot exactly remember when I had mine but I know it was summer so I was lucky that I was at home. It wasn't that as heavy as compared to my friend because she had her period when we were at school. We weren't classmates…
Resolutions or goals How many times have you made your new year's resolutions lists? And out of those resolutions, how many of those were accomplished? When I was a kid, there was a time that my brother and I listed our resolutions on a notebook. I cannot recall all of it but I remembered that we wrote down that we wouldn't fight each other anymore. LOL. As time goes by every Holiday season I would always say that my new year's resolution would be to lose weight, go on a…
Life during pandemic (part 4) I was thinking of giving this article a title of "DIY" or do-it-yourself but since that it is somehow connected to the new normal that we are currently in right now, I decided that this would be a continuation of my articles about Life during pandemic. If you may recall, part 1 was about having no social life, part 2 was about being cautious to the point that some people were being judgmental to others and being a clean freak and my part 3 would…
Activity time on social media platforms Yesterday I woke up without internet connection. Well actually my mom woke me up and told me that we didn't have internet again. I told her that it was probably because classes have resumed that we had intermittent connection for the past 2 days. Having no internet connection is bad news for her and our helper but not for me because I have a mobile data. My mom said that it was 3AM when she noticed that our connection was gone so she…
Daddy's girl For all the ladies out there, who among you is a daddy's girl? How about with you guys? Are you a papa's boy or a mama's boy? As for me, I cannot say that I am a daddy's girl neither a mommy's girl because there are some things that I don't tell them. Compared to the people that I know who are very open and very vocal to their mom and/or dad. You might be wondering why the sudden sentimental topic. I mentioned in one of my articles and in my posts in noise.cash…
Contact tracing When was the last time you went out of the house? Where did you go? Did the place that you went to required you to maintain physical distancing, wearing of face masks and face shields? Did you filled up a form for the purpose of contact tracing effecting control of the COVID-19 transmission? I think the last time that I went out was 2 weeks ago when I needed to buy some medicines for my dad. While I was waiting in line, I can't help but to wonder about those…
Life during pandemic (part 5) E-commerce has been known to many people especially the people living in the United States of America. Ebay and Amazon were some of the top e-commerce companies back then. There were also some popular brands who offer online shopping on their websites. When I was in high school, one of my favorite e-commerce website was Delias. Are you familiar with that site? Delias had a lot to offer from accessories, Paul Frank items up to home decorations…
Life during pandemic (part 6) I know most of us have already went out to run some errands in groceries, drug stores and banks. Those are just the top 3 places that I have frequent to for the past 10 months. You can include the hospital when I was hospitalized and had my follow up check ups because I went there for 4 consecutive months. Other than those 4 places, there was one time when I went to the city hall to pay for our annual property tax. Good thing that it had no long…
Envy Envy as described in Oxford languages, it is a feeling of discontented or resentful longing aroused by someone else's possessions, qualities, or luck. Have you envied someone or has someone envied you? Tell us a story about it. I don't know when I first started being envious of someone but if I were to recall, it was because of my physical looks. Like I have said many times before that I hated my curly hair and my fair skin. I don't know if someone was envious of me but…
Money, money, money (part 1) When I added my title, I thought of the song Mo Money, Mo Problems by The Notorius B.I.G. Are you familiar with that song? I like the part where it says, "*I don't know what they want from me. It's like the more money we come across. The more problems we see*". I am pretty sure that some of us can relate to that. But does having more money really gives more problems? Are we free from problems when we don't have money? Or is it more money, no…
Money, money, money (part 2) It's all about the money, money! Did you sing it? LOL. Money talks again. Have you ever borrowed money from someone? From whom did you borrow? Have you paid him or her already? Has anyone borrowed from you? Have they paid you already? How many times have you borrowed money and how many times have someone borrowed from you? I think the very first time that I borrowed money was from my parents when I was in high school. Remember when I said that I…
Money, money, money (part 3) Since we are still on the talks of money, I want to share a story about someone I know. Let's call him by the name Viktor and his younger brother Frank. Viktor became a father when he was 18, married the mother of his child. When his son was turning 2, his wife gave birth again. Yes another baby but sadly the baby died in an accident after 4 months. Viktor looked for a job but he was always a contractual worker. Even when he already had a family…
Money, money, money (part 4) If you have read the story of Viktor, what can you say about him? Thick face? Irresponsible? Dependent on others? I don't know if he will be able to stand on his two feet and be able to provide for his family in the long run without asking for any help. I just hope and pray that someday he will realize that it is ok to ask for help but not all the time. I know I am also still depending on my parents but I rarely ask my dad for money because it is…
My period cup Almost 2 weeks ago when I published my article about my Monthly visits, and if you have read it, you would know that I have purchased a menstrual cup or a period cup. I was suppose to name this article, A lady's cup, but I have realized it can also mean a cup for bra. LOL. To begin with, this will be a little awkward, disgusting and messy topic but I want to share with most of you girls the importance of menstrual cup to our environment.…
My crypto journey I know you have probably read some BCH journey and their goal to reach 1BCH this year. Of course I also would like to join my fellow read.cash and noise.cash friends in that. It has been a month and a half since I joined read.cash. If you have read my second article, Why did I join read.cash?, you probably would know my answer but in case you haven't, I've joined this platform because of the money. What else could it be right? But other than the money, I…
Marriages Are you single? Are you ready to mingle? Or are you in a relationship or open relationship? Or are you maybe in some kind of a flirtationship? That's my favorite status actually. LOL. Or are you engaged? Legally married? Separated? Divorced? Widowed? Maybe you are wondering why I asked about your status? I have already made an article about this on Kiki before. I was curious to know if there were still people who believe in marriages. Do they still fantasize about…
Topics During my 8th or 9th month in Kiki, a photo blogging platform, I cannot count how many articles I have posted. However, I know that I had 4 different pages, Eating time, WOW Philippines (more of my out of town trips), Mother Earth and Random Thoughts. I posted more on Eating time because of my food trips with family and friends. Because I had a lot of photos, I needed to tell more about what transpired that day, my review about the food, service and restaurant. 1…
A million money I wanted to make this a part 5 of my Money, money, money series but decided to give it a different title, A million money. If you have won the lottery and won the jackpot prize of exactly one million, what will you do with it? What was the first thing that came into your mind when you read that question? Who will be the people whom you are going to share the good news? How will you spend it? Would you like it in a form of cash or a cheque? When I made an…
Goals I was very happy when I saw a positive response from my A million money article. 2 of which wanted to purchase a land and build and/or repair their houses and majority of them would save and invest the money. It is great to know that we all have similar goals. They say great minds think alike right? https://read.cash/@bbyblacksheep/a-million-money-b7d90c86 This afternoon, I saw Mj's noisy post on noise.cash and she had listed down all her goals for this year 2021. She…
Life during pandemic (part 7) Last night up to this morning, I couldn't think of what to publish for today. I had some specific goals that was running through my mind the whole night. I wasn't able to write it down right away because I made dinner, tilapia sisig, for my family. Then we watched Netflix after. It was our usual routine since my dad had shingles. This morning until the afternoon, again I wasn't able to write it down because my dad and I had some errands to do. I…
My first heartbreak Have you ever experience having your heart get broken by someone you love? How does it feel? How did you move on? Have you already moved on? What happened? Since this is my 50th article, I want to share with you my first heartbreak. This is another part where you get to know a little of me and my past. I just turned 22 when I had experience it. I met him when I was 21 at my workplace. I was a food server and he was a pump attendant, a gas boy to be exact.…
A day in my life This article is inspired by @charmingcherry08 . I know I had a lot of errands today so I thought of publishing also my version of "**A day in my life**". Like she said, she got this idea from some Youtube influencers. Just by reading her article made me think of the Youtubers that I used to watch before. I think it was late November when I last watched my top influencers. I got so busy the whole month of December because of my business plus the fact that I…
Challenge accepted This afternoon I have decided to create a new wallet, **$1 challenge**. I know some of you are already familiar with it and most of you have already started saving. This challenge has been inspired by @bbghitte . Her challenge was dedicated for her daughter, Yuri. She plans to save one dollar each day for the whole year. Sounds challenging right? I instantly thought of the 52 weeks saving challenge that became popular before. After I have read her article,…
Raffle contests Kopiko Magkapera 3! Kopiko Magkapera 3! LOL. Did you imagine the advertisement of the said product when you read that part? Did you read it with the right tune? LOL. For those that aren't familiar with Kopiko, it is a 3-in-1 coffee brand here in the Philippines. Not sure if they have exported this to other countries but this is a really good coffee. The taste of their coffee varies from mild to strong. I have only tried Kopiko Brown and Kopiko Blanca. Well…
Grocery shopping The purpose of this article isn't to brag but to look back on some of my memories while doing grocery shopping and share with you all the difference between then and now. A few days ago I was complaining to @Firenze and @bmjc98 with the prices of basic necessities nowadays. How our budget of Php2000-3000 can only buy a few items. But before that let's go down my memory lane. Ever since I was a kid, I really like going to the groceries whether with my mom or…
Independent Most of you would probably know by now that I am still dependent on my parents. I'm not that young but my parents are already old yet here I am still not doing anything to give back to them. I know they are frustrated with how my life turned out to be but they are still thankful that they have me because I am taking care of them maybe not financially but the care like fixing meals sometimes or caring for them when they were sick. But how would you think my life…
